Git v1.7.8.1 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.8
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
* In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
|
|
recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
|
|
|
|
* "git apply --check" did not error out when given an empty input
|
|
without any patch.
|
|
|
|
* "git archive" mistakenly allowed remote clients to ask for commits
|
|
that are not at the tip of any ref.
|
|
|
|
* "git checkout" and "git merge" treated in-tree .gitignore and exclude
|
|
file in $GIT_DIR/info/ directory inconsistently when deciding which
|
|
untracked files are ignored and expendable.
|
|
|
|
* LF-to-CRLF streaming filter used when checking out a large-ish blob
|
|
fell into an infinite loop with a rare input.
|
|
|
|
* The function header pattern for files with "diff=cpp" attribute did
|
|
not consider "type *funcname(type param1,..." as the beginning of a
|
|
function.
|
|
|
|
* The error message from "git diff" and "git status" when they fail
|
|
to inspect changes in submodules did not report which submodule they
|
|
had trouble with.
|
|
|
|
* After fetching from a remote that has very long refname, the reporting
|
|
output could have corrupted by overrunning a static buffer.
|
|
|
|
* "git pack-objects" avoids creating cyclic dependencies among deltas
|
|
when seeing a broken packfile that records the same object in both
|
|
the deflated form and as a delta.
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
