This + has been fixed. + (merge ce6926974e jk/difftool-in-subdir later to maint). + + * "git p4" that tracks multile p4 paths imported a single changelist + that touches files in these multiple paths as one commit, followed + by many empty commits. This has been fixed. + (merge 9943e5b979 gv/p4-multi-path-commit-fix later to maint). + + * A potential but unlikely buffer overflow in Windows port has been + fixed. + (merge c46458e82f mk/mingw-winansi-ttyname-termination-fix later to maint). + + * When the http server gives an incomplete response to a smart-http + rpc call, it could lead to client waiting for a full response that + will never come.

This is useful to - restrict recursive submodule initialization from an untrusted - repository. Any protocol not mentioned will be disallowed (i.e., - this is a whitelist, not a blacklist). If the variable is not - set at all, all protocols are enabled. The protocol names - currently used by git are: - - - `file`: any local file-based path (including `file://` URLs, - or local paths) - - - `git`: the anonymous git protocol over a direct TCP - connection (or proxy, if configured) - - - `ssh`: git over ssh (including `host:path` syntax, - `ssh://`, etc). - - - `http`: git over http, both "smart http" and "dumb http". - Note that this does _not_ include `https`; if you want both, - you should specify both as `http:https`. - - - any external helpers are named by their protocol (e.g., use - `hg` to allow the `git-remote-hg` helper) - + If set to a colon-separated list of protocols, behave as if + `protocol.allow` is set to `never`, and each of the listed + protocols has `protocol.<name>.allow` set to `always` + (overriding any existing configuration).
