Git v1.7.9.2 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.9.1
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* Bash completion script (in contrib/) did not like a pattern that
|
|
begins with a dash to be passed to __git_ps1 helper function.
|
|
|
|
* Adaptation of the bash completion script (in contrib/) for zsh
|
|
incorrectly listed all subcommands when "git <TAB><TAB>" was given
|
|
to ask for list of porcelain subcommands.
|
|
|
|
* The build procedure for profile-directed optimized binary was not
|
|
working very well.
|
|
|
|
* Some systems need to explicitly link -lcharset to get locale_charset().
|
|
|
|
* t5541 ignored user-supplied port number used for HTTP server testing.
|
|
|
|
* The error message emitted when we see an empty loose object was
|
|
not phrased correctly.
|
|
|
|
* The code to ask for password did not fall back to the terminal
|
|
input when GIT_ASKPASS is set but does not work (e.g. lack of X
|
|
with GUI askpass helper).
|
|
|
|
* We failed to give the true terminal width to any subcommand when
|
|
they are invoked with the pager, i.e. "git -p cmd".
|
|
|
|
* map_user() was not rewriting its output correctly, which resulted
|
|
in the user visible symptom that "git blame -e" sometimes showed
|
|
excess '>' at the end of email addresses.
|
|
|
|
* "git checkout -b" did not allow switching out of an unborn branch.
|
|
|
|
* When you have both .../foo and .../foo.git, "git clone .../foo" did not
|
|
favor the former but the latter.
|
|
|
|
* "git commit" refused to create a commit when entries added with
|
|
"add -N" remained in the index, without telling Git what their content
|
|
in the next commit should be. We should have created the commit without
|
|
these paths.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff --stat" said "files", "insertions", and "deletions" even
|
|
when it is showing one "file", one "insertion" or one "deletion".
|
|
|
|
* The output from "git diff --stat" for two paths that have the same
|
|
amount of changes showed graph bars of different length due to the
|
|
way we handled rounding errors.
|
|
|
|
* "git grep" did not pay attention to -diff (hence -binary) attribute.
|
|
|
|
* The transport programs (fetch, push, clone)ignored --no-progress
|
|
and showed progress when sending their output to a terminal.
|
|
|
|
* Sometimes error status detected by a check in an earlier phase of
|
|
"git receive-pack" (the other end of "git push") was lost by later
|
|
checks, resulting in false indication of success.
|
|
|
|
* "git rev-list --verify" sometimes skipped verification depending on
|
|
the phase of the moon, which dates back to 1.7.8.x series.
|
|
|
|
* Search box in "gitweb" did not accept non-ASCII characters correctly.
|
|
|
|
* Search interface of "gitweb" did not show multiple matches in the same file
|
|
correctly.
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
