Git v2.19.2 Release Notes |
|
========================= |
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.19.1 |
|
------------------- |
|
|
|
* "git interpret-trailers" and its underlying machinery had a buggy |
|
code that attempted to ignore patch text after commit log message, |
|
which triggered in various codepaths that will always get the log |
|
message alone and never get such an input. |
|
|
|
* "git rebase -i" did not clear the state files correctly when a run |
|
of "squash/fixup" is aborted and then the user manually amended the |
|
commit instead, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* When fsmonitor is in use, after operation on submodules updates |
|
.gitmodules, we lost track of the fact that we did so and relied on |
|
stale fsmonitor data. |
|
|
|
* Fix for a long-standing bug that leaves the index file corrupt when |
|
it shrinks during a partial commit. |
|
|
|
* Further fix for O_APPEND emulation on Windows |
|
|
|
* A corner case bugfix in "git rerere" code. |
|
|
|
* "git add ':(attr:foo)'" is not supported and is supposed to be |
|
rejected while the command line arguments are parsed, but we fail |
|
to reject such a command line upfront. |
|
|
|
* "git rebase" etc. in Git 2.19 fails to abort when given an empty |
|
commit log message as result of editing, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The code to backfill objects in lazily cloned repository did not |
|
work correctly, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* Update error messages given by "git remote" and make them consistent. |
|
|
|
* "git update-ref" learned to make both "--no-deref" and "--stdin" |
|
work at the same time. |
|
|
|
* Recently added "range-diff" had a corner-case bug to cause it |
|
segfault, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The recently introduced commit-graph auxiliary data is incompatible |
|
with mechanisms such as replace & grafts that "breaks" immutable |
|
nature of the object reference relationship. Disable optimizations |
|
based on its use (and updating existing commit-graph) when these |
|
incompatible features are in use in the repository. |
|
|
|
* The mailmap file update. |
|
|
|
* The code in "git status" sometimes hit an assertion failure. This |
|
was caused by a structure that was reused without cleaning the data |
|
used for the first run, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* A corner-case bugfix. |
|
|
|
* A partial clone that is configured to lazily fetch missing objects |
|
will on-demand issue a "git fetch" request to the originating |
|
repository to fill not-yet-obtained objects. The request has been |
|
optimized for requesting a tree object (and not the leaf blob |
|
objects contained in it) by telling the originating repository that |
|
no blobs are needed. |
|
|
|
* The codepath to support the experimental split-index mode had |
|
remaining "racily clean" issues fixed. |
|
|
|
* "git log --graph" showing an octopus merge sometimes miscounted the |
|
number of display columns it is consuming to show the merge and its |
|
parent commits, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The implementation of run_command() API on the UNIX platforms had a |
|
bug that caused a command not on $PATH to be found in the current |
|
directory. |
|
|
|
* A mutex used in "git pack-objects" were not correctly initialized |
|
and this caused "git repack" to dump core on Windows. |
|
|
|
* Under certain circumstances, "git diff D:/a/b/c D:/a/b/d" on |
|
Windows would strip initial parts from the paths because they |
|
were not recognized as absolute, which has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead codepath kicked in even |
|
when the push should have been rejected due to other reasons, such |
|
as it does not fast-forward or the update-hook rejects it, which |
|
has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* "git repack" in a shallow clone did not correctly update the |
|
shallow points in the repository, leading to a repository that |
|
does not pass fsck. |
|
|
|
* Operations on promisor objects make sense in the context of only a |
|
small subset of the commands that internally use the revisions |
|
machinery, but the "--exclude-promisor-objects" option were taken |
|
and led to nonsense results by commands like "log", to which it |
|
didn't make much sense. This has been corrected. |
|
|
|
* The "container" mode of TravisCI is going away. Our .travis.yml |
|
file is getting prepared for the transition. |
|
|
|
* Our test scripts can now take the '-V' option as a synonym for the |
|
'--verbose-log' option. |
|
|
|
* A regression in Git 2.12 era made "git fsck" fall into an infinite |
|
loop while processing truncated loose objects. |
|
|
|
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
