| Git 1.8.1.6 Release Notes
 | |
| =========================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fixes since v1.8.1.5
 | |
| --------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * An earlier change to the attribute system introduced at v1.8.1.2 by
 | |
|    mistake stopped a pattern "dir" (without trailing slash) from
 | |
|    matching a directory "dir" (it only wanted to allow pattern "dir/"
 | |
|    to also match).
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
 | |
|    platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon a
 | |
|    hash collision between these pathnames and looped forever.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * When the "--prefix" option is used to "checkout-index", the code
 | |
|    did not pick the correct output filter based on the attribute
 | |
|    setting.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Annotated tags outside refs/tags/ hierarchy were not advertised
 | |
|    correctly to the ls-remote and fetch with recent version of Git.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The logic used by "git diff -M --stat" to shorten the names of
 | |
|    files before and after a rename did not work correctly when the
 | |
|    common prefix and suffix between the two filenames overlapped.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git update-index -h" did not do the usual "-h(elp)" thing.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * perl/Git.pm::cat_blob slurped everything in core only to write it
 | |
|    out to a file descriptor, which was not a very smart thing to do.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The SSL peer verification done by "git imap-send" did not ask for
 | |
|    Server Name Indication (RFC 4366), failing to connect SSL/TLS
 | |
|    sites that serve multiple hostnames on a single IP.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git bundle verify" did not say "records a complete history" for a
 | |
|    bundle that does not have any prerequisites.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Also contains various documentation fixes.
