Git 2.11 Release Notes
|
||||||
|
======================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Updates since v2.10
|
||||||
|
-------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
UI, Workflows & Features
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* "git format-patch --cover-letter HEAD^" to format a single patch
|
||||||
|
with a separate cover letter now numbers the output as [PATCH 0/1]
|
||||||
|
and [PATCH 1/1] by default.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* An incoming "git push" that attempts to push too many bytes can now
|
||||||
|
be rejected by setting a new configuration variable at the receiving
|
||||||
|
end.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* "git nosuchcommand --help" said "No manual entry for gitnosuchcommand",
|
||||||
|
which was not intuitive, given that "git nosuchcommand" said "git:
|
||||||
|
'nosuchcommand' is not a git command".
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* "git clone --resurse-submodules --reference $path $URL" is a way to
|
||||||
|
reduce network transfer cost by borrowing objects in an existing
|
||||||
|
$path repository when cloning the superproject from $URL; it
|
||||||
|
learned to also peek into $path for presense of corresponding
|
||||||
|
repositories of submodules and borrow objects from there when able.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* The delta-base-cache mechanism has been a key to the performance in
|
||||||
|
a repository with a tightly packed packfile, but it did not scale
|
||||||
|
well even with a larger value of core.deltaBaseCacheLimit.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Enhance "git status --porcelain" output by collecting more data on
|
||||||
|
the state of the index and the working tree files, which may
|
||||||
|
further be used to teach git-prompt (in contrib/) to make fewer
|
||||||
|
calls to git.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Fixes since v2.10
|
||||||
|
-----------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.9 in the maintenance
|
||||||
|
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
|
||||||
|
notes for details).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Clarify various ways to specify the "revision ranges" in the
|
||||||
|
documentation.
|
||||||
|
(merge a117be4 po/range-doc later to maint).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* "diff-highlight" script (in contrib/) learned to work better with
|
||||||
|
"git log -p --graph" output.
|
||||||
|
(merge 3dbfe2b bh/diff-highlight-graph later to maint).
