Git 1.7.12.3 Release Notes
|
|
|
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.12.2
|
|
|
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git am" mishandled a patch attached as application/octet-stream
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g. not text/*); Content-Transfer-Encoding (e.g. base64) was not
|
|
|
|
|
honored correctly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* It was unclear in the documentation for "git blame" that it is
|
|
|
|
|
unnecessary for users to use the "--follow" option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* A repository created with "git clone --single" had its fetch
|
|
|
|
|
refspecs set up just like a clone without "--single", leading the
|
|
|
|
|
subsequent "git fetch" to slurp all the other branches, defeating
|
|
|
|
|
the whole point of specifying "only this branch".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git fetch" over http had an old workaround for an unlikely server
|
|
|
|
|
misconfiguration; it turns out that this hurts debuggability of the
|
|
|
|
|
configuration in general, and has been reverted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git fetch" over http advertised that it supports "deflate", which
|
|
|
|
|
is much less common, and did not advertise the more common "gzip" on
|
|
|
|
|
its Accept-Encoding header.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git receive-pack" (the counterpart to "git push") did not give
|
|
|
|
|
progress output while processing objects it received to the user
|
|
|
|
|
when run over the smart-http protocol.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* "git status" honored the ignore=dirty settings in .gitmodules but
|
|
|
|
|
"git commit" didn't.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also contains a handful of documentation updates.
