Now it keeps going. + + * zsh can pretend to be a normal shell pretty well except for some + glitches that we tickle in some of our scripts. Work them around + so that "vimdiff" and our test suite works well enough with it. + + * Command line completion support for zsh (in contrib/) has been + updated to stop exposing internal state to end-user shell + interaction. + + * The documentation for "git diff --name-only" has been clarified + that it is about showing the names in the post-image tree. + + * The chainlint script (invoked during "make test") did nothing when + it failed to detect the number of available CPUs. It now falls + back to 1 CPU to avoid the problem. + + * "git init" in an already created directory, when the user + configuration has includeif.onbranch, started to fail recently, + which has been corrected. + + * The safe.directory configuration knob has been updated to + optionally allow leading path matches. + + * An overly large ".gitignore" files are now rejected silently. + + * Fix for an embarrassing typo that prevented Python2 tests from running + anywhere. + + * Varargs functions that are unannotated as printf-like or execl-like + have been annotated as such. + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. diff --git a/RelNotes b/RelNotes index 207912064a..36d6ed4435 120000 --- a/RelNotes +++ b/RelNotes @@ -1 +1 @@ -Documentation/RelNotes/2.45.2.txt \ No newline at end of file +Documentation/RelNotes/2.45.3.txt \ No newline at end of file
