We now close the file descriptor early when the entire + packfile fits inside one mmap window. + + * "git bisect visualize" tried to run "gitk" in windowing + environments even when "gitk" is not installed, resulting in a + strange error message. + + * "git clone /no/such/path" did not fail correctly. + + * "git commit" did not correctly error out when the user asked to use a + non existent file as the commit message template. + + * "git diff --stat -B" ran on binary files counted the changes in lines, + which was nonsensical. + + * "git diff -M" opportunistically detected copies, which was not + necessarily a good thing, especially when it is internally run by + recursive merge. + + * "git difftool" didn't tell (g)vimdiff that the files it is reading are + to be opened read-only. + + * "git merge" didn't pay attention to prepare-commit-msg hook, even + though if a merge is conflicted and manually resolved, the subsequent + "git commit" would have triggered the hook, which was inconsistent. + + * "git patch-id" (and commands like "format-patch --ignore-in-upstream" + that use it as their internal logic) handled changes to files that end + with incomplete lines incorrectly. + + * The official value to tell "git push" to push the current branch back + to update the upstream branch it forked from is now called "upstream". + The old name "tracking" is and will be supported. + + * "git submodule update" used to honor the --merge/--rebase option (or + corresponding configuration variables) even for a newly cloned + subproject, which made no sense (so/submodule-no-update-first-time). + + * gitweb's "highlight" interface mishandled tabs. + + * gitweb didn't understand timezones with GMT offset that is not + multiple of a whole hour. + + * gitweb had a few forward-incompatible syntactic constructs and + also used incorrect variable when showing the file mode in a diff. + +And other minor fixes and documentation updates. |
