They now use 'D' (for deletion) and 'T' (for + type-change) to match "git status -s" and "git diff --name-status". + + * The configuration file parser used for sizes (e.g. bigFileThreshold) + did not correctly interpret 'g' suffix. + + * The replacement implemention for snprintf used on platforms with + native snprintf that is broken did not use va_copy correctly. + + * LF-to-CRLF streaming filter replaced all LF with CRLF, which might + be techinically correct but not friendly to people who are trying + to recover from earlier mistakes of using CRLF in the repository + data in the first place. It now refrains from doing so for LF that + follows a CR. + + * git native connection going over TCP (not over SSH) did not set + SO_KEEPALIVE option which failed to receive link layer errors. + + * "git branch -m <current branch> HEAD" is an obvious no-op but was not + allowed. + + * "git checkout -m" did not recreate the conflicted state in a "both + sides added, without any common ancestor version" conflict + situation. + + * "git cherry-pick $commit" (not a range) created an unnecessary + sequencer state and interfered with valid workflow to use the + command during a session to cherry-pick multiple commits. + + * You could make "git commit" segfault by giving the "--no-message" + option. + + * "fast-import" did not correctly update an existing notes tree, + possibly corrupting the fan-out. + + * "git fetch-pack" accepted unqualified refs that do not begin with + refs/ by mistake and compensated it by matching the refspec with + tail-match, which was doubly wrong. This broke fetching from a + repository with a funny named ref "refs/foo/refs/heads/master" and a + 'master' branch with "git fetch-pack refs/heads/master", as the + command incorrectly considered the former a "match". + + * "git log --follow" did not honor the rename threshold score given + with the -M option (e.g. "-M50%"). + + * "git mv" gave suboptimal error/warning messages when it overwrites + target files. It also did not pay attention to "-v" option. + + * Authenticated "git push" over dumb HTTP were broken with a recent + change and failed without asking for password when username is + given. + + * "git push" to an empty repository over HTTP were broken with a + recent change to the ref handling. + + * "git push -v" forgot how to be verbose by mistake. It now properly + becomes verbose when asked to. + + * When a "reword" action in "git rebase -i" failed to run "commit --amend", + we did not give the control back to the user to resolve the situation, and + instead kept the original commit log message. + +Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates. diff --git a/GIT-VERSION-GEN b/GIT-VERSION-GEN index a04c8f32b7..36ae50b8f9 100755 --- a/GIT-VERSION-GEN +++ b/GIT-VERSION-GEN @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ #!/bin/sh GVF=GIT-VERSION-FILE -DEF_VER=v1.7.8 +DEF_VER=v1.7.8.2 LF=' ' @@ -1 +1 @@ -Documentation/RelNotes/1.7.8.1.txt
