Now it finds the + first non-empty line and uses it for better information. + + * When the user fails to give a revision parameter to "git svn", an error + from the Perl interpreter was issued because the script lacked proper + error checking. + + * After "git rebase" stopped due to conflicts, if the user played with + "git reset" and friends, "git rebase --abort" failed to go back to the + correct commit. + + * Additional work trees prepared with git-new-workdir (in contrib/) did + not share git-svn metadata directory .git/svn with the original. + + * "git-merge-recursive" did not mark addition of the same path with + different filemodes correctly as a conflict. + + * "gitweb" gave malformed URL when pathinfo stype paths are in use. + + * "-n" stands for "--no-tags" again for "git fetch". + + * "git format-patch" did not detect the need to add 8-bit MIME header + when the user used format.header configuration. + + * "rev~" revision specifier used to mean "rev", which was inconsistent + with how "rev^" worked. Now "rev~" is the same as "rev~1" (hence it + also is the same as "rev^1"), and "rev~0" is the same as "rev^0" + (i.e. it has to be a commit). + + * "git quiltimport" did not grok empty lines, lines in "file -pNNN" + format to specify the prefix levels and lines with trailing comments. + + * "git rebase -m" triggered pre-commit verification, which made + "rebase --continue" impossible. + +As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications. |
