GIT v1.6.4.4 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.6.4.4
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* The workaround for Github server that sometimes gave 500 (Internal server
|
|
error) response to HEAD requests in 1.6.4.3 introduced a regression that
|
|
caused re-fetching projects over http to segfault in certain cases due
|
|
to uninitialized pointer being freed.
|
|
|
|
* "git pull" on an unborn branch used to consider anything in the work
|
|
tree and the index discardable.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff -b/w" did not work well on the incomplete line at the end of
|
|
the file, due to an incorrect hashing of lines in the low-level xdiff
|
|
routines.
|
|
|
|
* "git checkout-index --prefix=$somewhere" used to work when $somewhere is
|
|
a symbolic link to a directory elsewhere, but v1.6.4.2 broke it.
|
|
|
|
* "git unpack-objects --strict", invoked when receive.fsckobjects
|
|
configuration is set in the receiving repository of "git push", did not
|
|
properly check the objects, especially the submodule links, it received.
|
|
|
|
Other minor documentation updates are included.
