|
|
|
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Updates since v1.7.0
|
|
|
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Some commands (e.g. svn and http interfaces) that interactively ask
|
|
|
|
|
password can be told to use an external program given via GIT_ASKPASS.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Color values given to "color.<cmd>.<slot>" configuration can now have
|
|
|
|
|
more than one attributes (e.g. "bold ul").
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git apply --whitespace=fix" didn't work well when an early patch in
|
|
|
|
|
a patch series adds trailing blank lines and a later one depended on
|
|
|
|
|
such a block of blank lines at the end.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git am" learned "--keep-cr" option to handle inputs that are
|
|
|
|
|
mixture of changes to files with and without CRLF line endings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git cvsimport" learned -R option to leave revision mapping between
|
|
|
|
|
CVS revisions and resulting git commits.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git for-each-ref" learned %(symref), %(symref:short) and %(flag)
|
|
|
|
|
tokens.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git hash-object --stdin-paths" can take "--no-filters" option now.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git init" can be told to look at init.templatedir configuration
|
|
|
|
|
variable (obviously that has to come from either /etc/gitconfig or
|
|
|
|
|
$HOME/.gitconfig).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git grep" learned "--no-index" option, to search inside contents that
|
|
|
|
|
are not managed by git.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git grep" learned --color=auto/always/never.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git grep" learned to paint filename and line-number in colors.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git merge-file" learned to use custom conflict marker size and also use
|
|
|
|
|
the "union merge" behaviour.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git notes" command has been rewritten in C and learned quite a
|
|
|
|
|
many commands.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git request-pull" identifies the commit the request is relative to in
|
|
|
|
|
a more readable way.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git reset" learned "--keep" option that lets you discard commits
|
|
|
|
|
near the tip while preserving your local changes in a way similar
|
|
|
|
|
to how "git checkout branch" does.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git svn" should work better when interacting with repositories
|
|
|
|
|
with CRLF line endings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git imap-send" learned to support CRAM-MD5 authentication.
