Git 1.8.1.3 Release Notes
|
||
|
|
=========================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixes since v1.8.1.2
|
||
|
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
|
||
|
|
applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
|
||
|
|
exclude mechanism does. The fix for this in 1.8.1.2 had
|
||
|
|
performance degradations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Command line completion code was inadvertently made incompatible with
|
||
|
|
older versions of bash by using a newer array notation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Scripts to test bash completion was inherently flaky as it was
|
||
|
|
affected by whatever random things the user may have on $PATH.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* A fix was added to the build procedure to work around buggy
|
||
|
|
versions of ccache broke the auto-generation of dependencies, which
|
||
|
|
unfortunately is still relevant because some people use ancient
|
||
|
|
distros.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* We used to stuff "user@" and then append what we read from
|
||
|
|
/etc/mailname to come up with a default e-mail ident, but a bug
|
||
|
|
lost the "user@" part.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* "git am" did not parse datestamp correctly from Hg generated patch,
|
||
|
|
when it is run in a locale outside C (or en).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Attempt to "branch --edit-description" an existing branch, while
|
||
|
|
being on a detached HEAD, errored out.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* "git cherry-pick" did not replay a root commit to an unborn branch.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* We forgot to close the file descriptor reading from "gpg" output,
|
||
|
|
killing "git log --show-signature" on a long history.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* "git rebase --preserve-merges" lost empty merges in recent versions
|
||
|
|
of Git.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Rebasing the history of superproject with change in the submodule
|
||
|
|
has been broken since v1.7.12.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* A failure to push due to non-ff while on an unborn branch
|
||
|
|
dereferenced a NULL pointer when showing an error message.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also contains various documentation fixes.
