Git v1.7.11.6 Release Notes
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.11.5
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* "ciabot" script (in contrib/) has been updated with extensive
|
|
documentation.
|
|
|
|
* "git foo" errored out with "Not a directory" when the user had a
|
|
non-directory on $PATH, and worse yet it masked an alias "foo" from
|
|
running.
|
|
|
|
* When the user exports a non-default IFS without HT, scripts that
|
|
rely on being able to parse "ls-files -s | while read a b c..."
|
|
started to fail. Protect them from such a misconfiguration.
|
|
|
|
* When the user gives an argument that can be taken as both a
|
|
revision name and a pathname without disambiguating with "--", we
|
|
used to give a help message "Use '--' to separate". The message
|
|
has been clarified to show where that '--' goes on the command
|
|
line.
|
|
|
|
* Documentation for the configuration file format had a confusing
|
|
example.
|
|
|
|
* Older parts of the documentation described as if having a regular
|
|
file in .git/refs/ hierarchy were the only way to have branches and
|
|
tags, which is not true for quite some time.
|
|
|
|
* It was generally understood that "--long-option"s to many of our
|
|
subcommands can be abbreviated to the unique prefix, but it was not
|
|
easy to find it described for new readers of the documentation set.
|
|
|
|
* The "--topo-order", "--date-order" (and the lack of either means
|
|
the default order) options to "rev-list" and "log" family of
|
|
commands were poorly described in the documentation.
|
|
|
|
* "git commit --amend" let the user edit the log message and then
|
|
died when the human-readable committer name was given
|
|
insufficiently by getpwent(3).
|
|
|
|
* The exit status code from "git config" was way overspecified while
|
|
being incorrect. The implementation has been updated to give the
|
|
documented status for a case that was documented, and introduce a
|
|
new code for "all other errors".
|
|
|
|
* The output from "git diff -B" for a file that ends with an
|
|
incomplete line did not put "\ No newline..." on a line of its own.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff" had a confusion between taking data from a path in the
|
|
working tree and taking data from an object that happens to have
|
|
name 0{40} recorded in a tree.
|
|
|
|
* The "--rebase" option to "git pull" can be abbreviated to "-r",
|
|
but we didn't document it.
|
|
|
|
* When "git push" triggered the automatic gc on the receiving end, a
|
|
message from "git prune" that said it was removing cruft leaked to
|
|
the standard output, breaking the communication protocol.
|
|
|
|
* The reflog entries left by "git rebase" and "git rebase -i" were
|
|
inconsistent (the interactive one gave an abbreviated object name).
|
|
|
|
* "git send-email" did not unquote encoded words that appear on the
|
|
header correctly, and lost "_" from strings.
|
|
|
|
* "git stash apply/pop" did not trigger "rerere" upon conflicts
|
|
unlike other mergy operations.
|
|
|
|
* "git submodule <cmd> path" did not error out when the path to the
|
|
submodule was misspelt.
|
|
|
|
* "git submodule update -f" did not update paths in the working tree
|
|
that has local changes.
|
|
(merge 01d4721 sz/submodule-force-update later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "gitweb" when used with PATH_INFO failed to notice directories with
|
|
SP (and other characters that need URL-style quoting) in them.
|
|
|
|
* Fallback 'getpass' implementation made unportable use of stdio API.
|
|
|
|
* A utility shell function test_seq has been added as a replacement
|
|
for the 'seq' utility found on some platforms.
