GIT v1.5.0.2 Release Notes
|
||
|
==========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Fixes since v1.5.0.1
|
||
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Bugfixes
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
|
||
|
links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
|
||
|
strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
|
||
|
in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
|
||
|
merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
|
||
|
that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
|
||
|
problems have been fixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
|
||
|
diff across three trees.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
|
||
|
but segfaulted.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
|
||
|
slashes after a/ and b/.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
|
||
|
message had too long line at the beginning.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
|
||
|
running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
|
||
|
was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
|
||
|
installing as root (especially problematic when the source
|
||
|
directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
|
||
|
sorted next to each other.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
|
||
|
there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
|
||
|
symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
|
||
|
now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
|
||
|
internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
|
||
|
impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
|
||
|
in the repository.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
|
||
|
merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
|
||
|
when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
|
||
|
read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
|
||
|
file the symbolic link pointed at.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Documentation updates
|
||
|
|
||
|
- added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Assorted git-gui fixes.
