Git v2.9.1 Release Notes |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.9 |
|
---------------- |
|
|
|
* When "git daemon" is run without --[init-]timeout specified, a |
|
connection from a client that silently goes offline can hang around |
|
for a long time, wasting resources. The socket-level KEEPALIVE has |
|
been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections. |
|
|
|
* The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format |
|
string. This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring |
|
--no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to |
|
a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as |
|
"auto". |
|
|
|
* "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n" |
|
option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the |
|
bitmap index. |
|
|
|
* "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited |
|
by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire |
|
file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file, |
|
which has been fixed. |
|
|
|
* The documentation set has been updated so that literal commands, |
|
configuration variables and environment variables are consistently |
|
typeset in fixed-width font and bold in manpages. |
|
|
|
* "git svn propset" subcommand that was added in 2.3 days is |
|
documented now. |
|
|
|
* The documentation tries to consistently spell "GPG"; when |
|
referring to the specific program name, "gpg" is used. |
|
|
|
* "git reflog" stopped upon seeing an entry that denotes a branch |
|
creation event (aka "unborn"), which made it appear as if the |
|
reflog was truncated. |
|
|
|
* The git-prompt scriptlet (in contrib/) was not friendly with those |
|
who uses "set -u", which has been fixed. |
|
|
|
* A codepath that used alloca(3) to place an unbounded amount of data |
|
on the stack has been updated to avoid doing so. |
|
|
|
* "git update-index --add --chmod=+x file" may be usable as an escape |
|
hatch, but not a friendly thing to force for people who do need to |
|
use it regularly. "git add --chmod=+x file" can be used instead. |
|
|
|
* Build improvements for gnome-keyring (in contrib/) |
|
|
|
* "git status" used to say "working directory" when it meant "working |
|
tree". |
|
|
|
* Comments about misbehaving FreeBSD shells have been clarified with |
|
the version number (9.x and before are broken, newer ones are OK). |
|
|
|
* "git cherry-pick A" worked on an unborn branch, but "git |
|
cherry-pick A..B" didn't. |
|
|
|
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
