| Git v2.2.2 Release Notes
 | |
| ========================
 | |
| 
 | |
| Fixes since v2.2.1
 | |
| ------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git checkout $treeish $path", when $path in the index and the
 | |
|    working tree already matched what is in $treeish at the $path,
 | |
|    still overwrote the $path unnecessarily.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git config --get-color" did not parse its command line arguments
 | |
|    carefully.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * open() emulated on Windows platforms did not give EISDIR upon
 | |
|    an attempt to open a directory for writing.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * A few code paths used abs() when they should have used labs() on
 | |
|    long integers.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "gitweb" used to depend on a behaviour recent CGI.pm deprecated.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git init" (hence "git clone") initialized the per-repository
 | |
|    configuration file .git/config with x-bit by mistake.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Git 2.0 was supposed to make the "simple" mode for the default of
 | |
|    "git push", but it didn't.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "Everyday" document had a broken link.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The build procedure did not bother fixing perl and python scripts
 | |
|    when NO_PERL and NO_PYTHON build-time configuration changed.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The code that reads the reflog from the newer to the older entries
 | |
|    did not handle an entry that crosses a boundary of block it uses to
 | |
|    read them correctly.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git apply" was described in the documentation to take --ignore-date
 | |
|    option, which it does not.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Traditionally we tried to avoid interpreting date strings given by
 | |
|    the user as future dates, e.g. GIT_COMMITTER_DATE=2014-12-10 when
 | |
|    used early November 2014 was taken as "October 12, 2014" because it
 | |
|    is likely that a date in the future, December 10, is a mistake.
 | |
|    This heuristics has been loosened to allow people to express future
 | |
|    dates (most notably, --until=<date> may want to be far in the
 | |
|    future) and we no longer tiebreak by future-ness of the date when
 | |
| 
 | |
|     (1) ISO-like format is used, and
 | |
|     (2) the string can make sense interpreted as both y-m-d and y-d-m.
 | |
| 
 | |
|    Git may still have to use the heuristics to tiebreak between dd/mm/yy
 | |
|    and mm/dd/yy, though.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * The code to abbreviate an object name to its short unique prefix
 | |
|    has been optimized when no abbreviation was requested.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * "git add --ignore-errors ..." did not ignore an error to
 | |
|    give a file that did not exist.
 | |
| 
 | |
|  * Git did not correctly read an overlong refname from a packed refs
 | |
|    file.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
