Git v1.7.5 Release Notes (draft) |
|
======================== |
|
|
|
Updates since v1.7.5 |
|
-------------------- |
|
|
|
* Various git-svn updates. |
|
|
|
* When an object "$tree:$path" does not exist, if $path does exist in the |
|
subtree of $tree that corresponds to the subdirectory the user is in, |
|
git now suggests using "$tree:./$path" in addition to the advice to use |
|
the full path from the root of the working tree. |
|
|
|
* "git blame" learned "--abbrev[=<n>]" option to control the minimum |
|
number of hexdigits shown for commit object names. |
|
|
|
* "git clean" used to fail on an empty directory that is not readable, |
|
even though rmdir(2) could remove such a directory. Now we attempt it |
|
as the last resort. |
|
|
|
* "git format-patch" learned "--quiet" option to suppress the output of |
|
the names of generated files. |
|
|
|
* "git merge" learned "-" as a short-hand for "the previous branch", just |
|
like the way "git checkout -" works. |
|
|
|
* "git pack-object" now takes core.bigfilethreashold into account, just |
|
like fast-imoprt does. |
|
|
|
* "git reflog" allows options like "--format=.." to be given. |
|
|
|
* "git stash apply" can now apply to a working tree with changes as long |
|
as there is no overlapping change as the stash being applied. |
|
|
|
* "git stash apply @{99999}" now is diagnosed as an error, unless you |
|
really have that many stash entries. |
|
|
|
Also contains various documentation updates. |
|
|
|

|
Fixes since v1.7.5 |
|
------------------ |
|
|
|
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.5.X maintenance track are |
|
included in this release. |
|
|
|
* The "--date=relative" output format used to say "X years, 12 months" |
|
when it should have said "X+1 years". |
|
(merge mg/x-years-12-months later) |
|
|
|
* "git config" used to choke with an insanely long line. |
|
(merge ef/maint-strbuf-init later) |
|
|
|
* The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to totally |
|
ignore a change that only rearranged lines within a file. Such a |
|
change now counts as at least a minimum but non zero change. |
|
|
|
* The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to use the |
|
pathname in the original, instead of the pathname in the result, |
|
when renames are involved. |
|
(merge jh/dirstat for the above two later) |
|
|
|
* "git format-patch" when run with "--quiet" option used to produce a |
|
nonsense result that consists of alternating empty output. |
|
(merge early part of cn/format-patch-quiet later) |
|
|
|
* "git stash -p --no-keep-index" and "git stash --no-keep-index -p" now |
|
mean the same thing. |
|
(merge dm/stash-k-i-p later) |
|
|
|
* "git upload-pack" (hence "git push" over git native protocol) had a |
|
subtle race condition that could lead to a deadlock. |
|
(merge jk/maint-upload-pack-shallow later) |
|
