The socket-level KEEPALIVE has + been enabled to allow the OS to notice such failed connections. + + * The commands in `git log` family take %C(auto) in a custom format + string. This unconditionally turned the color on, ignoring + --no-color or with --color=auto when the output is not connected to + a tty; this was corrected to make the format truly behave as + "auto". + + * "git rev-list --count" whose walk-length is limited with "-n" + option did not work well with the counting optimized to look at the + bitmap index. + + * "git show -W" (extend hunks to cover the entire function, delimited + by lines that match the "funcname" pattern) used to show the entire + file when a change added an entire function at the end of the file, + which has been fixed. + + +Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. -- cgit v1.2.3
