Git 1.8.1.5 Release Notes
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.8.1.4
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* Given a string with a multi-byte character that begins with '-' on
|
|
the command line where an option is expected, the option parser
|
|
used just one byte of the unknown letter when reporting an error.
|
|
|
|
* In v1.8.1, the attribute parser was tightened too restrictive to
|
|
error out upon seeing an entry that begins with an ! (exclamation),
|
|
which may confuse users to expect a "negative match", which does
|
|
not exist. This has been demoted to a warning; such an entry is
|
|
still ignored.
|
|
|
|
* "git apply --summary" has been taught to make sure the similarity
|
|
value shown in its output is sensible, even when the input had a
|
|
bogus value.
|
|
|
|
* "git clean" showed what it was going to do, but sometimes ended
|
|
up finding that it was not allowed to do so, which resulted in a
|
|
confusing output (e.g. after saying that it will remove an
|
|
untracked directory, it found an embedded git repository there
|
|
which it is not allowed to remove). It now performs the actions
|
|
and then reports the outcome more faithfully.
|
|
|
|
* "git clone" used to allow --bare and --separate-git-dir=$there
|
|
options at the same time, which was nonsensical.
|
|
|
|
* "git cvsimport" mishandled timestamps at DST boundary.
|
|
|
|
* We used to have an arbitrary 32 limit for combined diff input,
|
|
resulting in incorrect number of leading colons shown when showing
|
|
the "--raw --cc" output.
|
|
|
|
* The smart HTTP clients forgot to verify the content-type that comes
|
|
back from the server side to make sure that the request is being
|
|
handled properly.
|
|
|
|
* "git help remote-helpers" failed to find the documentation.
|
|
|
|
* "gitweb" pages served over HTTPS, when configured to show picon or
|
|
gravatar, referred to these external resources to be fetched via
|
|
HTTP, resulting in mixed contents warning in browsers.
|
|
|
|
Also contains various documentation fixes.
