Git v2.10.3 Release Notes
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.10.2
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
* Extract a small helper out of the function that reads the authors
|
|
script file "git am" internally uses.
|
|
This by itself is not useful until a second caller appears in the
|
|
future for "rebase -i" helper.
|
|
|
|
* The command-line completion script (in contrib/) learned to
|
|
complete "git cmd ^mas<HT>" to complete the negative end of
|
|
reference to "git cmd ^master".
|
|
|
|
* "git send-email" attempts to pick up valid e-mails from the
|
|
trailers, but people in real world write non-addresses there, like
|
|
"Cc: Stable <add@re.ss> # 4.8+", which broke the output depending
|
|
on the availability and vintage of Mail::Address perl module.
|
|
|
|
* The code that we have used for the past 10+ years to cycle
|
|
4-element ring buffers turns out to be not quite portable in
|
|
theoretical world.
|
|
|
|
* "git daemon" used fixed-length buffers to turn URL to the
|
|
repository the client asked for into the server side directory
|
|
path, using snprintf() to avoid overflowing these buffers, but
|
|
allowed possibly truncated paths to the directory. This has been
|
|
tightened to reject such a request that causes overlong path to be
|
|
required to serve.
|
|
|
|
* Recent update to git-sh-setup (a library of shell functions that
|
|
are used by our in-tree scripted Porcelain commands) included
|
|
another shell library git-sh-i18n without specifying where it is,
|
|
relying on the $PATH. This has been fixed to be more explicit by
|
|
prefixing $(git --exec-path) output in front.
|
|
|
|
* Fix for a racy false-positive test failure.
|
|
|
|
* Portability update and workaround for builds on recent Mac OS X.
|
|
|
|
* Update to the test framework made in 2.9 timeframe broke running
|
|
the tests under valgrind, which has been fixed.
|
|
|
|
* Improve the rule to convert "unsigned char [20]" into "struct
|
|
object_id *" in contrib/coccinelle/
|
|
|
|
* "git-shell" rejects a request to serve a repository whose name
|
|
begins with a dash, which makes it no longer possible to get it
|
|
confused into spawning service programs like "git-upload-pack" with
|
|
an option like "--help", which in turn would spawn an interactive
|
|
pager, instead of working with the repository user asked to access
|
|
(i.e. the one whose name is "--help").
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
