GIT v1.6.1.2 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.6.1.1
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* The logic for rename detection in internal diff used by commands like
|
|
"git diff" and "git blame" has been optimized to avoid loading the same
|
|
blob repeatedly.
|
|
|
|
* We did not allow writing out a blob that is larger than 2GB for no good
|
|
reason.
|
|
|
|
* "git format-patch -o $dir", when $dir is a relative directory, used it
|
|
as relative to the root of the work tree, not relative to the current
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
* v1.6.1 introduced an optimization for "git push" into a repository (A)
|
|
that borrows its objects from another repository (B) to avoid sending
|
|
objects that are available in repository B, when they are not yet used
|
|
by repository A. However the code on the "git push" sender side was
|
|
buggy and did not work when repository B had new objects that are not
|
|
known by the sender. This caused pushing into a "forked" repository
|
|
served by v1.6.1 software using "git push" from v1.6.1 sometimes did not
|
|
work. The bug was purely on the "git push" sender side, and has been
|
|
corrected.
|
|
|
|
* "git status -v" did not paint its diff output in colour even when
|
|
color.ui configuration was set.
|
|
|
|
* "git ls-tree" learned --full-tree option to help Porcelain scripts that
|
|
want to always see the full path regardless of the current working
|
|
directory.
|
|
|
|
* "git grep" incorrectly searched in work tree paths even when they are
|
|
marked as assume-unchanged. It now searches in the index entries.
|
|
|
|
* "git gc" with no grace period needlessly ejected packed but unreachable
|
|
objects in their loose form, only to delete them right away.
