GIT v1.6.4.1 Release Notes |
||||
========================== |
||||
|
||||
Fixes since v1.6.4 |
||||
------------------ |
||||
|
||||
* An unquoted value in the configuration file, when it contains more than |
||||
one whitespaces in a row, got them replaced with a single space. |
||||
|
||||
* "git am" used to accept a single piece of e-mail per file (not a mbox) |
||||
as its input, but multiple input format support in v1.6.4 broke it. |
||||
Apparently many people have been depending on this feature. |
||||
|
||||
* The short help text for "git filter-branch" command was a single long |
||||
line, wrapped by terminals, and was hard to read. |
||||
|
||||
* The "recursive" strategy of "git merge" segfaulted when a merge has |
||||
more than one merge-bases, and merging of these merge-bases involves |
||||
a rename/rename or a rename/add conflict. |
||||
|
||||
* "git pull --rebase" did not use the right fork point when the |
||||
repository has already fetched from the upstream that rewinds the |
||||
branch it is based on in an earlier fetch. |
||||
|
||||
* Explain the concept of fast-forward more fully in "git push" |
||||
documentation, and hint to refer to it from an error message when the |
||||
command refuses an update to protect the user. |
||||
|
||||
* The default value for pack.deltacachesize, used by "git repack", is now |
||||
256M, instead of unbounded. Otherwise a repack of a moderately sized |
||||
repository would needlessly eat into swap. |
||||
|
||||
* Document how "git repack" (hence "git gc") interacts with a repository |
||||
that borrows its objects from other repositories (e.g. ones created by |
||||
"git clone -s"). |
||||
|
||||
* "git show" on an annotated tag lacked a delimiting blank line between |
||||
the tag itself and the contents of the object it tags. |
||||
|
||||
* "git verify-pack -v" erroneously reported number of objects with too |
||||
deep delta depths as "chain length 0" objects. |
||||
|
||||
* Long names of authors and committers outside US-ASCII were sometimes |
||||
incorrectly shown in "gitweb". |
||||
|
||||
Other minor documentation updates are included. |
