We now ask libCURL to + always use the most secure authentication method, because the user + can tell libCURL to use an HTTP proxy via an environment variable + without using configuration variables. + + * When you say "!<ENTER>" while running say "git log", you'd confuse + yourself in the resulting shell, that may look as if you took + control back to the original shell you spawned "git log" from but + that isn't what is happening. To that new shell, we leaked + GIT_PAGER_IN_USE environment variable that was meant as a local + communication between the original "Git" and subprocesses that was + spawned by it after we launched the pager, which caused many + "interesting" things to happen, e.g. "git diff | cat" still paints + its output in color by default. + + Stop leaking that environment variable to the pager's half of the + fork; we only need it on "Git" side when we spawn the pager. + + * Avoid possible ssize_t to int truncation. + + * "git config" failed to update the configuration file when the + underlying filesystem is incapable of renaming a file that is still + open. + + * A minor bugfix when pack bitmap is used with "rev-list --count". + + * An ancient test framework enhancement to allow color was not + entirely correct; this makes it work even when tput needs to read + from the ~/.terminfo under the user's real HOME directory. + + * Fix a small bug in our use of umask() return value. + + * "git rebase" did not exit with failure when format-patch it invoked + failed for whatever reason. + + * Disable "have we lost a race with competing repack?" check while + receiving a huge object transfer that runs index-pack. + +Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code +clean-ups. diff --git a/Documentation/git.txt b/Documentation/git.txt index 35bd3b58b8..bd298a4d28 100644 --- a/Documentation/git.txt +++ b/Documentation/git.txt @@ -43,9 +43,10 @@ unreleased) version of Git, that is available from the 'master' branch of the `git.git` repository.
