Git v1.7.12 Release Notes |
|
========================= |
|
|
|
Updates since v1.7.11 |
|
--------------------- |
|
|
|
UI, Workflows & Features |
|
|
|
* "git help" used to always default to "man" format even on platforms |
|
where "man" viewer is not widely available. |
|
|
|
* "git clone --local $path" started its life as an experiment to |
|
optionally use link/copy when cloning a repository on the disk, but |
|
we didn't deprecate it after we made the option a no-op to always |
|
use the optimization. The command learned "--no-local" option to |
|
turn this off, as a more explicit alternative over use of file:// |
|
URL. |
|
|
|
* git native protocol agents learned to show software version over |
|
the wire, so that the server log can be examined to see the vintage |
|
distribution of clients. |
|
|
|
|
|
Foreign Interface |
|
|
|
|
|
Performance and Internal Implementation (please report possible regressions) |
|
|
|
* Some tests showed false failures caused by a bug in ecryptofs. |
|
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.11 |
|
------------------- |
|
|
|
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v1.7.11 in the maintenance |
|
releases are contained in this release (see release notes to them for |
|
details). |
|
|
|
* Running "git bundle verify" on a bundle that records a complete |
|
history said "it requires these 0 commits". |
|
(merge 8c3710f jc/bundle-complete-notice later to maint). |
|
|
|
* "git ls-files --exclude=t -i" did not consider anything under t/ as |
|
excluded, as it did not pay attention to exclusion of leading paths |
|
while walking the index. Other two users of excluded() are also |
|
updated. |
|
(merge 0d316f0 jc/ls-files-i-dir later to maint). |
|
|
|
* "git request-pull $url dev" when the tip of "dev" branch was tagged |
|
with "ext4-for-linus" used the contents from the tag in the output |
|
but still asked the "dev" branch to be pulled, not the tag. |
|
(merge 682853e jc/request-pull-match-tagname later to maint).
