GIT v1.5.6.2 Release Notes |
|
========================== |
|
|
|
Futureproof |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
* "git-shell" accepts requests without a dash between "git" and |
|
subcommand name (e.g. "git upload-pack") which the newer client will |
|
start to make sometime in the future. |
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.5.6.1 |
|
-------------------- |
|
|
|
* "git clone" from a remote that is named with url.insteadOf setting in |
|
$HOME/.gitconfig did not work well. |
|
|
|
* "git describe --long --tags" segfaulted when the described revision was |
|
tagged with a lightweight tag. |
|
|
|
* "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status |
|
reliably. |
|
|
|
* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now |
|
it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking |
|
branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest |
|
pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set |
|
of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'. |
|
|
|
* "git reset file" should mean the same thing as "git reset HEAD file", |
|
but we required disambiguating -- even when "file" is not ambiguous. |
|
|
|
* "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another |
|
annotated tag was given to it. |
|
|
|
* Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a |
|
serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for |
|
moderately large import. |
|
|
|
* "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file |
|
unnecessarily.
