The merge-resolve + strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it + in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy, + merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path + that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these + problems have been fixed. + + - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined + diff across three trees. + + - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris. + + - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out + but segfaulted. + + - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra + slashes after a/ and b/. + + - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit + message had too long line at the beginning. + + - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything + running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This + was inconvenient when building as yourself and then + installing as root (especially problematic when the source + directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody). + + - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that + sorted next to each other. + + - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if + there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a + symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command + now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks. + + - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments + internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it + impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs + in the repository. + + - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted + merge were not reading the working tree version correctly + when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have + read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular + file the symbolic link pointed at. + + - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name. + + - 'git.el' honors the commit coding system from the configuration. + + - 'blameview' in contrib/ correctly digs deeper when a line is + clicked. + + - 'http-push' correctly makes sure the remote side has leading + path. Earlier it started in the middle of the path, and + incorrectly. + + - 'git-merge' did not exit with non-zero status when the + working tree was dirty and cannot fast forward. It does + now. + + - 'cvsexportcommit' does not lose yet-to-be-used message file. + + - int-vs-size_t typefix when running combined diff on files + over 2GB long. + + - 'git apply --whitespace=strip' should not touch unmodified + lines. + + - 'git-mailinfo' choke when a logical header line was too long. + + - 'git show A..B' did not error out. Negative ref ("not A" in + this example) does not make sense for the purpose of the + command, so now it errors out. + + - 'git fmt-merge-msg --file' without file parameter did not + correctly error out. + + - 'git archimport' barfed upon encountering a commit without + summary. + + - 'git index-pack' did not protect itself from getting a short + read out of pread(2). + + - 'git http-push' had a few buffer overruns. + + - Build dependency fixes to rebuild fetch.o when other headers + change. + + - git.el does not add duplicate sign-off lines. + + - git-commit shows the full stat of the resulting commit, not + just about the files in the current directory, when run from + a subdirectory. + + - "git-checkout -m '@{8 hours ago}'" had a funny failure from + eval; fixed. + + - git-merge (hence git-pull) did not refuse fast-forwarding + when the working tree had local changes that would have + conflicted with it. + + - a handful small fixes to gitweb. + + - build procedure for user-manual is fixed not to require locally + installed stylesheets. + + - "git commit $paths" on paths whose earlier contents were + already updated in the index were failing out. + + +* Tweaks + + - sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a + packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the + reverse order.
