Git v2.3.2 Release Notes |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.3.1 |
|
------------------ |
|
|
|
* "update-index --refresh" used to leak when an entry cannot be |
|
refreshed for whatever reason. |
|
|
|
* "git fast-import" used to crash when it could not close and |
|
conclude the resulting packfile cleanly. |
|
|
|
* "git blame" died, trying to free an uninitialized piece of memory. |
|
|
|
* "git merge-file" did not work correctly in a subdirectory. |
|
|
|
* "git submodule add" failed to squash "path/to/././submodule" to |
|
"path/to/submodule". |
|
|
|
* In v2.2.0, we broke "git prune" that runs in a repository that |
|
borrows from an alternate object store. |
|
|
|
* Certain older vintages of cURL give irregular output from |
|
"curl-config --vernum", which confused our build system. |
|
|
|
* An earlier workaround to squelch unhelpful deprecation warnings |
|
from the compiler on Mac OSX unnecessarily set minimum required |
|
version of the OS, which the user might want to raise (or lower) |
|
for other reasons. |
|
|
|
* Longstanding configuration variable naming rules has been added to |
|
the documentation. |
|
|
|
* The credential helper for Windows (in contrib/) used to mishandle |
|
a user name with an at-sign in it. |
|
|
|
* Older GnuPG implementations may not correctly import the keyring |
|
material we prepare for the tests to use. |
|
|
|
* Clarify in the documentation that "remote.<nick>.pushURL" and |
|
"remote.<nick>.URL" are there to name the same repository accessed |
|
via different transports, not two separate repositories. |
|
|
|
* The pack bitmap support did not build with older versions of GCC. |
|
|
|
* Reading configuration from a blob object, when it ends with a lone |
|
CR, use to confuse the configuration parser. |
|
|
|
* We didn't format an integer that wouldn't fit in "int" but in |
|
"uintmax_t" correctly. |
|
|
|
* "git push --signed" gave an incorrectly worded error message when |
|
the other side did not support the capability. |
|
|
|
* "git fetch" over a remote-helper that cannot respond to "list" |
|
command could not fetch from a symbolic reference e.g. HEAD. |
|
|
|
* The insn sheet "git rebase -i" creates did not fully honor |
|
core.abbrev settings. |
|
|
|
* The tests that wanted to see that file becomes unreadable after |
|
running "chmod a-r file", and the tests that wanted to make sure it |
|
is not run as root, we used "can we write into the / directory?" as |
|
a cheap substitute, but on some platforms that is not a good |
|
heuristics. The tests and their prerequisites have been updated to |
|
check what they really require. |
|
|
|
* The configuration variable 'mailinfo.scissors' was hard to |
|
discover in the documentation. |
|
|
|
* Correct a breakage to git-svn around v2.2 era that triggers |
|
premature closing of FileHandle. |
|
|
|
* Even though we officially haven't dropped Perl 5.8 support, the |
|
Getopt::Long package that came with it does not support "--no-" |
|
prefix to negate a boolean option; manually add support to help |
|
people with older Getopt::Long package. |
|
|
|
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
