A new test has been added to check this. + + * "git apply -p0" did not parse pathnames on "diff --git" line + correctly. This caused patches that had pathnames in no other + places to be mistakenly rejected (most notably, binary patch that + does not rename nor change mode). Textual patches, renames or mode + changes have preimage and postimage pathnames in different places + in a form that can be parsed unambiguously and did not suffer from + this problem. + + * After "gitk" showed the contents of a tag, neither "Reread + references" nor "Reload" did not update what is shown as the + contents of it, when the user overwrote the tag with "git tag -f". + + * "git for-each-ref" did not currectly support more than one --sort + option. + + * "git log .." errored out saying it is both rev range and a path + when there is no disambiguating "--" is on the command line. + Update the command line parser to interpret ".." as a path in such + a case. + + * Pushing to smart HTTP server with recent Git fails without having + the username in the URL to force authentication, if the server is + configured to allow GET anonymously, while requiring authentication + for POST. + + * "git show --format='%ci'" did not give timestamp correctly for + commits created without human readable name on "committer" line. + (merge e27ddb6 jc/maint-ident-missing-human-name later to maint). + + * "git show --quiet" ought to be a synonym for "git show -s", but + wasn't. |
