GIT v1.5.2 Release Notes (draft)
========================
Updates since v1.5.1
--------------------
* New commands and options.
- "git bisect start" can optionally take a single bad commit and
zero or more good commits on the command line.
* Updated behavior of existing commands.
- "git diff --stat" shows size of preimage and postimage blobs
for binary contents. Earlier it only said "Bin".
- "git lost-found" shows stuff that are unreachable except
from reflogs.
- "git checkout branch^0" now detaches HEAD at the tip commit
on the named branch, instead of just switching to the
branch (use "git checkout branch" to switch to the branch,
as before).
- "git bisect next" can be used after giving only a bad commit
without giving a good one (this starts bisection half-way to
the root commit). We used to refuse to operate without a
good and a bad commit.
* Builds
- git-p4import has never been installed; now there is an
installation option to do so.
- gitk and git-gui can be configured out.
- Generated documentation pages automatically get version
information from GIT_VERSION
- Parallel build with "make -j" descending into subdirectory
was fixed.
* Performance Tweaks
- optimized "git-rev-list --bisect" (hence "git-bisect").
- optimized "git-add $path" in a large directory, most of
whose contents are ignored.
Fixes since v1.5.1
------------------
The following are all in v1.5.1.x series, unless otherwise noted.
* Documentation updates
* Bugfixes
- Switching branches with "git checkout" refused to work when
a path changes from a file to a directory between the
current branch and the new branch, in order not to lose
possible local changes in the directory that is being turned
into a file with the switch. We now allow such a branch
switch after making sure that there is no locally modified
file nor un-ignored file in the directory. This has not
been backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an
intrusive change.
* Performance Tweaks
