GIT v1.5.4 Release Notes
========================
Updates since v1.5.3
--------------------
* Comes with much improved gitk.
* Comes with git-gui 0.9.0 with i18n.
* git-lost-found was deprecated in favor of git-fsck's --lost-found
option.
* git-peek-remote is deprecated, as git-ls-remote was written in C and
works for all transports.
* "progress display" from many commands are a lot nicer to the
eye. Transfer commands show throughput data.
* git-reset is now built-in and its output can be squelched with -q.
* git-send-email can optionally talk over ssmtp and use SMTP-AUTH.
* git-rebase learned --whitespace option.
* In git-rebase, when you decide not to replay a particular change
after the command stopped with a conflict, you can say "git-rebase
--skip" without first running "git reset --hard", as the command now
run it for you.
* git-remote knows --mirror mode.
* git-merge can call the "post-merge" hook.
* git-pack-objects can optionally run deltification with multiple threads.
* git-archive can optionally substitute keywords in files marked with
export-subst attribute.
* git-for-each-ref learned %(xxxdate:<dateformat>) syntax to
show the various date fields in different formats.
* git-gc --auto is a low-impact way to automatically run a
variant of git-repack that does not lose unreferenced objects
(read: safer than the usual one) after the user accumulates
too many loose objects.
* You need to explicitly set clean.requireForce to "false" to allow
git-clean without -f to do any damage (lack of the configuration
variable used to mean "do not require", but we now use the safer
default).
* git-clean has been rewritten in C.
* git-push has been rewritten in C.
* git-push learned --dry-run option to show what would happen
if a push is run.
* git-push does not update a tracking ref on the pushing side when the
remote refused to update the corresponding ref.
* git-push learned --mirror option. This is to push the local refs
one-to-one to the remote, and deletes refs from the remote that do
not exist anymore in the repository on the pushing side.
* git-remote learned "rm" subcommand.
* git-rebase --interactive mode can now work on detached HEAD.
* git-cvsserver can be run via git-shell.
* git-am and git-rebase are far less verbose.
* git-pull learned to pass --[no-]ff option to underlying git-merge.
* Various Perforce importer updates.
* "git log" learned --early-output option to help interactive
GUI implementations.
* git-svnimport was removed in favor of git-svn.
* git-bisect learned "skip" action to mark untestable commits.
* git-format-patch learned "format.numbered" configuration variable
to automatically turn --numbered option on when more than one
commits are formatted.
* git-ls-files learned "--exclude-standard" to use the canned
set of exclude files.
* git-rebase now detaches head during its operation, so after a
successful "git rebase" operation, the reflog entry branch@{1}
for the current branch points at the commit before the rebase
was started.
* "git-tag -a -f existing" begins the editor session using the
existing annotation message.
* "git cvsexportcommit" learned -w option to specify and switch
to the CVS working directory.
* "git checkout" from a subdirectory learned to use "../path"
to allow checking out a path outside the current directory
without cd'ing up.
* "git send-email --dry-run" shows full headers for easier
diagnosis.
* "git merge-ours" is built-in.
* "git svn" learned "info" subcommand.
* "git status" from a subdirectory now shows relative paths
which makes copy-and-pasting for git-checkout/git-add/git-rm
easier.
* Output processing for '--pretty=format:<user format>' has
been optimized.
* Rename detection diff family, while detecting exact matches,
has been greatly optimized.
* Example update and post-receive hooks have been improved.
* In addition there are quite a few internal clean-ups. Notably
- many fork/exec have been replaced with run-command API,
brought from the msysgit effort.
- introduction and more use of the option parser API.
- enhancement and more use of the strbuf API.
Fixes since v1.5.3
------------------
All of the fixes in v1.5.3 maintenance series are included in
this release, unless otherwise noted.
* git-svn talking with the SVN over http will correctly quote branch
and project names.
* "git rev-list --objects A..B" choked when the lower boundary
of the range involved a subproject. This fix is also queued
for 'maint' (but not in there yet).
