GIT v1.5.2 Release Notes (draft) |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Updates since v1.5.1 |
|
-------------------- |
|
|
|
* New commands and options. |
|
|
|
- "git bisect start" can optionally take a single bad commit and |
|
zero or more good commits on the command line. |
|
|
|
* Updated behavior of existing commands. |
|
|
|
- "git diff --stat" shows size of preimage and postimage blobs |
|
for binary contents. Earlier it only said "Bin". |
|
|
|
- "git lost-found" shows stuff that are unreachable except |
|
from reflogs. |
|
|
|
- "git checkout branch^0" now detaches HEAD at the tip commit |
|
on the named branch, instead of just switching to the |
|
branch (use "git checkout branch" to switch to the branch, |
|
as before). |
|
|
|
- "git bisect next" can be used after giving only a bad commit |
|
without giving a good one (this starts bisection half-way to |
|
the root commit). We used to refuse to operate without a |
|
good and a bad commit. |
|
|
|
* Builds |
|
|
|
- git-p4import has never been installed; now there is an |
|
installation option to do so. |
|
|
|
- gitk and git-gui can be configured out. |
|
|
|
- Generated documentation pages automatically get version |
|
information from GIT_VERSION |
|
|
|
- Parallel build with "make -j" descending into subdirectory |
|
was fixed. |
|
|
|
* Performance Tweaks |
|
|
|
- optimized "git-rev-list --bisect" (hence "git-bisect"). |
|
|
|
- optimized "git-add $path" in a large directory, most of |
|
whose contents are ignored. |
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.5.1 |
|
------------------ |
|
|
|
The following are all in v1.5.1.x series, unless otherwise noted. |
|
|
|
* Documentation updates |
|
|
|
* Bugfixes |
|
|
|
- Switching branches with "git checkout" refused to work when |
|
a path changes from a file to a directory between the |
|
current branch and the new branch, in order not to lose |
|
possible local changes in the directory that is being turned |
|
into a file with the switch. We now allow such a branch |
|
switch after making sure that there is no locally modified |
|
file nor un-ignored file in the directory. This has not |
|
been backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an |
|
intrusive change. |
