GIT v1.6.2 Release Notes |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Updates since v1.6.1 |
|
-------------------- |
|
|
|
(subsystems) |
|
|
|
* git-svn updates. |
|
|
|
* gitweb updates, including a new patch view and RSS/Atom feed |
|
improvements. |
|
|
|
(portability) |
|
|
|
(performance) |
|
|
|
* pack-objects autodetects the number of CPUs available and uses threaded |
|
version. |
|
|
|
(usability, bells and whistles) |
|
|
|
* automatic typo correction works on aliases as well |
|
|
|
* @{-1} is a way to refer to the last branch you were on. This is |
|
accepted not only where an object name is expected, but anywhere |
|
a branch name is expected. E.g. "git branch --track mybranch @{-1}" |
|
"git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name @{-1}". |
|
|
|
* "git add -p" learned 'g'oto action to jump directly to a hunk. |
|
|
|
* when "git am" stops upon a patch that does not apply, it shows the |
|
title of the offending patch. |
|
|
|
* "git am --directory=<dir>" and "git am --reject" passes these options |
|
to underlying "git apply". |
|
|
|
* "git clone" now makes its best effort when cloning from an empty |
|
repository to set up configuration variables to refer to the remote |
|
repository. |
|
|
|
* "git checkout -" is a shorthand for "git checkout @{-1}". |
|
|
|
* "git cherry" defaults to whatever the current branch is tracking (if |
|
exists) when the <upstream> argument is not given. |
|
|
|
* "git cvsserver" can be told not to add extra "via git-CVS emulator" to |
|
the commit log message it serves via gitcvs.commitmsgannotation |
|
configuration. |
|
|
|
* "git diff" learned a new option --inter-hunk-context to coalesce close |
|
hunks together and show context between them. |
|
|
|
* The definition of what constitutes a word for "git diff --color-words" |
|
can be customized via gitattributes, command line or a configuration. |
|
|
|
* "git diff" learned --patience to run "patience diff" algorithm. |
|
|
|
* Some combinations of -b/-w/--ignore-space-at-eol to "git diff" did |
|
not work as expected. |
|
|
|
* "git filter-branch" learned --prune-empty option that discards commits |
|
that do not change the contents. |
|
|
|
* "git grep -w" and "git grep" for fixed strings have been optimized. |
|
|
|
* "git log" and friends include HEAD to the set of starting points |
|
when --all is given. This makes a difference when you are not on |
|
any branch. |
|
|
|
* "git ls-tree" learned --full-tree option that shows the path in full |
|
regardless of where in the work tree hierarchy the command was started. |
|
|
|
* "git mergetool" learned -y(--no-prompt) option to disable prompting. |
|
|
|
* "git rebase -i" can transplant a history down to root to elsewhere |
|
with --root option. |
|
|
|
* "git reset --merge" is a new mode that works similar to the way |
|
"git checkout" switches branches, taking the local changes while |
|
switching to another commit. |
|

Fixes since v1.6.1 |
|
------------------ |
|
|
|
All of the fixes in v1.6.1.X maintenance series are included in this |
|
release, unless otherwise noted. |
|
|
|
* "git-add sub/file" when sub is a submodule incorrectly added the path to |
|
the superproject. |
|
|
|
* git-bundle did not exclude annotated tags even when a range given from the |
|
command line wanted to. |
|
|
|
* branch switching and merges had a silly bug that did not validate |
|
the correct directory when making sure an existing subdirectory is |
|
clean. |
