Git 2.22.1 Release Notes |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.22 |
|
----------------- |
|
|
|
* A relative pathname given to "git init --template=<path> <repo>" |
|
ought to be relative to the directory "git init" gets invoked in, |
|
but it instead was made relative to the repository, which has been |
|
corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git worktree add" used to fail when another worktree connected to |
|
the same repository was corrupt, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The ownership rule for the file descriptor to fast-import remote |
|
backend was mixed up, leading to unrelated file descriptor getting |
|
closed, which has been fixed. |
|
|
|
* "git update-server-info" used to leave stale packfiles in its |
|
output, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The server side support for "git fetch" used to show incorrect |
|
value for the HEAD symbolic ref when the namespace feature is in |
|
use, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git am -i --resolved" segfaulted after trying to see a commit as |
|
if it were a tree, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git bundle verify" needs to see if prerequisite objects exist in |
|
the receiving repository, but the command did not check if we are |
|
in a repository upfront, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git merge --squash" is designed to update the working tree and the |
|
index without creating the commit, and this cannot be countermanded |
|
by adding the "--commit" option; the command now refuses to work |
|
when both options are given. |
|
|
|
* The data collected by fsmonitor was not properly written back to |
|
the on-disk index file, breaking t7519 tests occasionally, which |
|
has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* Update to Unicode 12.1 width table. |
|
|
|
* The command line to invoke a "git cat-file" command from inside |
|
"git p4" was not properly quoted to protect a caret and running a |
|
broken command on Windows, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git request-pull" learned to warn when the ref we ask them to pull |
|
from in the local repository and in the published repository are |
|
different. |
|
|
|
* When creating a partial clone, the object filtering criteria is |
|
recorded for the origin of the clone, but this incorrectly used a |
|
hardcoded name "origin" to name that remote; it has been corrected |
|
to honor the "--origin <name>" option. |
|
|
|
* "git fetch" into a lazy clone forgot to fetch base objects that are |
|
necessary to complete delta in a thin packfile, which has been |
|
corrected. |
|
|
|
* The filter_data used in the list-objects-filter (which manages a |
|
lazily sparse clone repository) did not use the dynamic array API |
|
correctly---'nr' is supposed to point at one past the last element |
|
of the array in use. This has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The description about slashes in gitignore patterns (used to |
|
indicate things like "anchored to this level only" and "only |
|
matches directories") has been revamped. |
|
|
|
* The URL decoding code has been updated to avoid going past the end |
|
of the string while parsing %-<hex>-<hex> sequence. |
|
|
|
* The list of for-each like macros used by clang-format has been |
|
updated. |
|
|
|
* "git push --atomic" that goes over the transport-helper (namely, |
|
the smart http transport) failed to prevent refs to be pushed when |
|
it can locally tell that one of the ref update will fail without |
|
having to consult the other end, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git clean" silently skipped a path when it cannot lstat() it; now |
|
it gives a warning. |
|
|
|
* A codepath that reads from GPG for signed object verification read |
|
past the end of allocated buffer, which has been fixed. |
|
|
|
* "git rm" to resolve a conflicted path leaked an internal message |
|
"needs merge" before actually removing the path, which was |
|
confusing. This has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The "git clone" documentation refers to command line options in its |
|
description in the short form; they have been replaced with long |
|
forms to make them more recognisable. |
|
|
|
* The configuration variable rebase.rescheduleFailedExec should be |
|
effective only while running an interactive rebase and should not |
|
affect anything when running a non-interactive one, which was not |
|
the case. This has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git submodule foreach" did not protect command line options passed |
|
to the command to be run in each submodule correctly, when the |
|
"--recursive" option was in use. |
|
|
|
* Use "Erase in Line" CSI sequence that is already used in the editor |
|
support to clear cruft in the progress output. |
|
|
|
* The codepath to compute delta islands used to spew progress output |
|
without giving the callers any way to squelch it, which has been |
|
fixed. |
|
|
|
* The code to parse scaled numbers out of configuration files has |
|
been made more robust and also easier to follow. |
|
|
|
* An incorrect list of options was cached after command line |
|
completion failed (e.g. trying to complete a command that requires |
|
a repository outside one), which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git rebase --abort" used to leave refs/rewritten/ when concluding |
|
"git rebase -r", which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git stash show 23" used to work, but no more after getting |
|
rewritten in C; this regression has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git interpret-trailers" always treated '#' as the comment |
|
character, regardless of core.commentChar setting, which has been |
|
corrected. |
|
|
|
* Code clean-up to avoid signed integer overlaps during binary search. |
|
|
|
* "git checkout -p" needs to selectively apply a patch in reverse, |
|
which did not work well. |
|
|
|
* The commit-graph file is now part of the "files that the runtime |
|
may keep open file descriptors on, all of which would need to be |
|
closed when done with the object store", and the file descriptor to |
|
an existing commit-graph file now is closed before "gc" finalizes a |
|
new instance to replace it. |
|
|
|
* Code restructuring during 2.20 period broke fetching tags via |
|
"import" based transports. |
|
|
|
* We have been trying out a few language features outside c89; the |
|
coding guidelines document did not talk about them and instead had |
|
a blanket ban against them. |
|
|
|
* The internal diff machinery can be made to read out of bounds while |
|
looking for --funcion-context line in a corner case, which has been |
|
corrected. |
|
|
|
Also contains various documentation updates, code clean-ups and minor fixups.
