GIT v1.5.1 Release Notes |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Updates since v1.5.0 |
|
-------------------- |
|
|
|
* Deprecated commands and options. |
|
|
|
- git-diff-stages and git-resolve have been removed. |
|
|
|
* New commands and options. |
|
|
|
- "git log" and friends take --reverse. This makes output |
|
that typically goes reverse order in chronological order. |
|
"git shortlog" usually lists commits in chronological order, |
|
but with "--reverse", they are shown in reverse |
|
chronological order. |
|
|
|
- "git diff" learned --ignore-space-at-eol. This is a weaker |
|
form of --ignore-space-change. |
|
|
|
- "git diff --no-index pathA pathB" can be used as diff |
|
replacement with git specific enhancements. |
|
|
|
- "git diff --pretty=format:<string>" to allow more flexible |
|
custom log output. |
|
|
|
- "git name-rev" learned --refs=<pattern>, to limit the tags |
|
used for naming the given revisions only to the ones |
|
matching the given pattern. |
|
|
|
- "git remote update" is to run "git fetch" for defined remotes |
|
to update tracking branches. |
|
|
|
- "git cvsimport" can now take '-d' to talk with a CVS |
|
repository different from what are recorded in CVS/Root |
|
(overriding it with environment CVSROOT does not work). |
|
|
|
- "git bundle" can help sneaker-netting your changes between |
|
repositories. |
|
|
|
- A new configuration "core.symlinks" can be used to disable |
|
symlinks on filesystems that do not support them; they are |
|
checked out as regular files instead. |
|
|
|
|
|
* Updated behaviour of existing commands. |
|
|
|
- git-svn got almost a rewrite. |
|
|
|
- core.autocrlf configuration, when set to 'true', makes git |
|
to convert CRLF at the end of lines in text files to LF when |
|
reading from the filesystem, and convert in reverse when |
|
writing to the filesystem. The variable can be set to |
|
'input', in which case the conversion happens only while |
|
reading from the filesystem but files are written out with |
|
LF at the end of lines. Currently, which paths to consider |
|
'text' (i.e. be subjected to the autocrlf mechanism) is |
|
decided purely based on the contents, but the plan is to |
|
allow users to explicitly override this heuristic based on |
|
paths. |
|
|
|
- The behaviour of 'git-apply', when run in a subdirectory, |
|
without --index nor --cached were inconsistent with that of |
|
the command with these options. This was fixed to match the |
|
behaviour with --index. A patch that is meant to be applied |
|
with -p1 from the toplevel of the project tree can be |
|
applied with any custom -p<n> option. A patch that is not |
|
relative to the toplevel needs to be applied with -p<n> |
|
option with or without --index (or --cached). |
|
|
|
- "git diff" outputs a trailing HT when pathnames have embedded |
|
SP on +++/--- header lines, in order to help "GNU patch" to |
|
parse its output. "git apply" was already updated to accept |
|
this modified output format since ce74618d (Sep 22, 2006). |
|
|
|
- "git cvsserver" runs hooks/update and honors its exit status. |
|
|
|
- "git cvsserver" can be told to send everything with -kb. |
|
|
|
- "git diff --check" also honors the --color output option. |
|
|
|
- "git name-rev" used to stress the fact that a ref is a tag too |
|
much, by saying something like "v1.2.3^0~22". It now says |
|
"v1.2.3~22" in such a case (it still says "v1.2.3^0" if it does |
|
not talk about an ancestor of the commit that is tagged, which |
|
makes sense). |
|
|
|
- "git rev-list --boundary" now shows boundary markers for the |
|
commits omitted by --max-age and --max-count condition. |
|
|
|
- The configuration mechanism now reads $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig. |
|
|
|
- "git apply --verbose" shows what preimage lines were wanted |
|
when it couldn't find them. |
|
|
|
- "git status" in a read-only repository got a bit saner. |
|
|
|
- "git fetch" (hence "git clone" and "git pull") are less |
|
noisy when the output does not go to tty. |
|
|
|
* Hooks |
|
|
|
- The sample update hook to show how to send out notification |
|
e-mail was updated to show only new commits that appeared in |
|
the repository. Earlier, it showed new commits that appeared |
|
on the branch. |
