Now we attempt it + as the last resort. + + * The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to totally + ignore a change that only rearranged lines within a file. Such a + change now counts as at least a minimum but non zero change. + + * The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to use the + pathname in the original, instead of the pathname in the result, + when renames are involved. + + * "git pack-object" did not take core.bigfilethreashold into account + (unlike fast-import); now it does. + + * "git reflog" ignored options like "--format=.." on the command line. + + * "git stash apply" used to refuse to work if there was any change in + the working tree, even when the change did not overlap with the change + the stash recorded. + + * "git stash apply @{99999}" was not diagnosed as an error, even when you + did not have that many stash entries. + + * An error message from "git send-email" to diagnose a broken SMTP + connection configuration lacked a space between "hello=<smtp-domain>" + and "port=<smtp-server-port>". + +And other minor fixes and documentation updates. |
