Git v2.1.1 Release Notes
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Git 2.0 had a regression where "git fetch" into a shallowly
|
||
|
cloned repository from a repository with bitmap object index
|
||
|
enabled did not work correctly. This has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Git 2.0 had a regression which broke (rarely used) "git diff-tree
|
||
|
-t". This has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git log --pretty/format=" with an empty format string did not
|
||
|
mean the more obvious "No output whatsoever" but "Use default
|
||
|
format", which was counterintuitive. Now it means "nothing shown
|
||
|
for the log message part".
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git -c section.var command" and "git -c section.var= command"
|
||
|
should pass the configuration differently (the former should be a
|
||
|
boolean true, the latter should be an empty string), but they
|
||
|
didn't work that way. Now it does.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Applying a patch not generated by Git in a subdirectory used to
|
||
|
check the whitespace breakage using the attributes for incorrect
|
||
|
paths. Also whitespace checks were performed even for paths
|
||
|
excluded via "git apply --exclude=<path>" mechanism.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git bundle create" with date-range specification were meant to
|
||
|
exclude tags outside the range, but it did not work correctly.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git add x" where x that used to be a directory has become a
|
||
|
symbolic link to a directory misbehaved.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The prompt script checked $GIT_DIR/ref/stash file to see if there
|
||
|
is a stash, which was a no-no.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git checkout -m" did not switch to another branch while carrying
|
||
|
the local changes forward when a path was deleted from the index.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* With sufficiently long refnames, fast-import could have overflown
|
||
|
an on-stack buffer.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* After "pack-refs --prune" packed refs at the top-level, it failed
|
||
|
to prune them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git gc --auto" triggered from "git fetch --quiet" was not quiet.
