GIT v1.5.4.5 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.5.4.4
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* "git fetch there" when the URL information came from the Cogito style
|
|
branches/there file did not update refs/heads/there (regression in
|
|
1.5.4).
|
|
|
|
* Bogus refspec configuration such as "remote.there.fetch = =" were not
|
|
detected as errors (regression in 1.5.4).
|
|
|
|
* You couldn't specify a custom editor whose path contains a whitespace
|
|
via GIT_EDITOR (and core.editor).
|
|
|
|
* The subdirectory filter to "git filter-branch" mishandled a history
|
|
where the subdirectory becomes empty and then later becomes non-empty.
|
|
|
|
* "git shortlog" gave an empty line if the original commit message was
|
|
malformed (e.g. a botched import from foreign SCM). Now it finds the
|
|
first non-empty line and uses it for better information.
|
|
|
|
* When the user fails to give a revision parameter to "git svn", an error
|
|
from the Perl interpreter was issued because the script lacked proper
|
|
error checking.
|
|
|
|
* After "git rebase" stopped due to conflicts, if the user played with
|
|
"git reset" and friends, "git rebase --abort" failed to go back to the
|
|
correct commit.
|
|
|
|
* Additional work trees prepared with git-new-workdir (in contrib/) did
|
|
not share git-svn metadata directory .git/svn with the original.
|
|
|
|
* "git-merge-recursive" did not mark addition of the same path with
|
|
different filemodes correctly as a conflict.
|
|
|
|
* "gitweb" gave malformed URL when pathinfo stype paths are in use.
|
|
|
|
* "-n" stands for "--no-tags" again for "git fetch".
|
|
|
|
* "git format-patch" did not detect the need to add 8-bit MIME header
|
|
when the user used format.header configuration.
|
|
|
|
* "rev~" revision specifier used to mean "rev", which was inconsistent
|
|
with how "rev^" worked. Now "rev~" is the same as "rev~1" (hence it
|
|
also is the same as "rev^1"), and "rev~0" is the same as "rev^0"
|
|
(i.e. it has to be a commit).
|
|
|
|
* "git quiltimport" did not grok empty lines, lines in "file -pNNN"
|
|
format to specify the prefix levels and lines with trailing comments.
|
|
|
|
* "git rebase -m" triggered pre-commit verification, which made
|
|
"rebase --continue" impossible.
|
|
|
|
As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications.
