Git v1.7.10.2 Release Notes
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.10.1
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* The test scaffolding for git-daemon was flaky.
|
|
|
|
* The test scaffolding for fast-import was flaky.
|
|
|
|
* The filesystem boundary was not correctly reported when .git directory
|
|
discovery stopped at a mount point.
|
|
|
|
* HTTP transport that requires authentication did not work correctly when
|
|
multiple connections are used simultaneously.
|
|
|
|
* Minor memory leak during unpack_trees (hence "merge" and "checkout"
|
|
to check out another branch) has been plugged.
|
|
|
|
* In the older days, the header "Conflicts:" in "cherry-pick" and "merge"
|
|
was separated by a blank line from the list of paths that follow for
|
|
readability, but when "merge" was rewritten in C, we lost it by
|
|
mistake. Remove the newline from "cherry-pick" to make them match
|
|
again.
|
|
|
|
* The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can
|
|
be both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a
|
|
path in the context of the command.
|
|
|
|
* The "include.path" facility in the configuration mechanism added in
|
|
1.7.10 forgot to interpret "~/path" and "~user/path" as it should.
|
|
|
|
* "git config --rename-section" to rename an existing section into a
|
|
bogus one did not check the new name.
|
|
|
|
* The "diff --no-index" codepath used limited-length buffers, risking
|
|
pathnames getting truncated. Update it to use the strbuf API.
|
|
|
|
* The report from "git fetch" said "new branch" even for a non branch
|
|
ref.
|
|
|
|
* The http-backend (the server side of the smart http transfer) used
|
|
to overwrite GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL with the
|
|
value obtained from REMOTE_USER unconditionally, making it
|
|
impossible for the server side site-specific customization to use
|
|
different identity sources to affect the names logged. It now uses
|
|
REMOTE_USER only as a fallback value.
|
|
|
|
* "log --graph" was not very friendly with "--stat" option and its
|
|
output had line breaks at wrong places.
|
|
|
|
* Octopus merge strategy did not reduce heads that are recorded in the
|
|
final commit correctly.
|
|
|
|
* "git push" over smart-http lost progress output a few releases ago;
|
|
this release resurrects it.
|
|
|
|
* The error and advice messages given by "git push" when it fails due
|
|
to non-ff were not very helpful to new users; it has been broken
|
|
into three cases, and each is given a separate advice message.
|
|
|
|
* The insn sheet given by "rebase -i" did not make it clear that the
|
|
insn lines can be re-ordered to affect the order of the commits in
|
|
the resulting history.
|
|
|
|
* "git repack" used to write out unreachable objects as loose objects
|
|
when repacking, even if such loose objects will immediately pruned
|
|
due to its age.
|
|
|
|
* A contrib script "rerere-train" did not work out of the box unless
|
|
user futzed with her $PATH.
|
|
|
|
* "git rev-parse --show-prefix" used to emit nothing when run at the
|
|
top-level of the working tree, but now it gives a blank line.
|
|
|
|
* The i18n of error message "git stash save" was not properly done.
|
|
|
|
* "git submodule" used a sed script that some platforms mishandled.
|
|
|
|
* When using a Perl script on a system where "perl" found on user's
|
|
$PATH could be ancient or otherwise broken, we allow builders to
|
|
specify the path to a good copy of Perl with $PERL_PATH. The
|
|
gitweb test forgot to use that Perl when running its test.
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
