The server side has been taught to send a + small empty messages to keep the connection alive. + + * When the webserver responds with "405 Method Not Allowed", "git + http-backend" should tell the client what methods are allowed with + the "Allow" header. + + * "git cvsserver" computed the permission mode bits incorrectly for + executable files. + + * The implementation of "add -i" has a crippling code to work around + ActiveState Perl limitation but it by mistake also triggered on Git + for Windows where MSYS perl is used. + + * We made sure that we notice the user-supplied GIT_DIR is actually a + gitfile, but did not do the same when the default ".git" is a + gitfile. + + * When an object is not found after checking the packfiles and then + loose object directory, read_sha1_file() re-checks the packfiles to + prevent racing with a concurrent repacker; teach the same logic to + has_sha1_file(). + + * "git commit --author=$name", when $name is not in the canonical + "A. U. Thor <au.thor@example.xz>" format, looks for a matching name + from existing history, but did not consult mailmap to grab the + preferred author name. + + * The commit object names in the insn sheet that was prepared at the + beginning of "rebase -i" session can become ambiguous as the + rebasing progresses and the repository gains more commits. Make + sure the internal record is kept with full 40-hex object names. + + * "git rebase --preserve-merges" internally used the merge machinery + and as a side effect, left merge summary message in the log, but + when rebasing, there should not be a need for merge summary. + + * "git rebase -i" forgot that the comment character can be + configurable while reading its insn sheet. + +Also contains a handful of trivial code clean-ups, documentation +updates, updates to the test suite, etc. diff --git a/t/t4254-am-corrupt.sh b/t/t4254-am-corrupt.sh index b7da95fac5..85716dd6ec 100755 --- a/t/t4254-am-corrupt.sh +++ b/t/t4254-am-corrupt.sh @@ -3,20 +3,19 @@ test_description='git am with corrupt input' . ./test-lib.sh -# Note the missing "+++" line: -cat > bad-patch.diff <<'EOF' -From: A U Thor <au.thor@example.com> -diff --git a/f b/f -index 7898192..6178079 100644 ---- a/f -@@ -1 +1 @@ --a -+b -EOF - test_expect_success setup ' - test $? = 0 && - echo a > f && + # Note the missing "+++" line: + cat >bad-patch.diff <<-\EOF && + From: A U Thor <au.thor@example.com> + diff --git a/f b/f + index 7898192..6178079 100644 + --- a/f + @@ -1 +1 @@ + -a + +b + EOF + + echo a >f && git add f && test_tick && git commit -m initial @@ -26,17 +25,12 @@ test_expect_success setup ' # fatal: unable to write file '(null)' mode 100644: Bad address # Also, it had the unwanted side-effect of deleting f. test_expect_success 'try to apply corrupted patch' ' - git am bad-patch.diff 2> actual - test $? = 1 + test_must_fail git am bad-patch.diff 2>actual ' -cat > expected <<EOF -fatal: git diff header lacks filename information (line 4) -EOF - test_expect_success 'compare diagnostic; ensure file is still here' ' - test $? = 0 && - test -f f && + echo "fatal: git diff header lacks filename information (line 4)" >expected && + test_path_is_file f && test_cmp expected actual ' |
