Git v1.7.7 Release Notes
========================
Updates since v1.7.6
--------------------
* The scripting part of the codebase is getting prepared for i18n/l10n.
* Interix, Cygwin and Minix ports got updated.
* A handful of patches to update git-p4 (in contrib/).
* Gitweb learned to read from /etc/gitweb-common.conf when it exists,
before reading from gitweb_config.perl or from /etc/gitweb.conf
(this last one is read only when per-repository gitweb_config.perl
does not exist).
* Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these
functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on
platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected.
* "git archive" can be told to pass the output to gzip compression and
produce "archive.tar.gz".
* "git checkout" (both the code to update the files upon checking out a
different branch, the code to checkout specific set of files) learned
to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to
read the entire contents of a file in memory first. An earlier round
of this code that is not in any released version had a large leak but
now it has been plugged.
* "git clone" can now take "--config key=value" option to set the
repository configuration options that affect the initial checkout.
* "git commit <paths>..." now lets you feed relative pathspecs that
refer outside your current subdirectory.
* "git diff --stat" learned --stat-count option to limit the output of
diffstat report.
* "git fetch", "git push" and friends no longer show connection
errors for addresses that couldn't be connected when at least one
address succeeds (this is arguably a regression but a deliberate
one).
* "git grep" learned --break and --heading options, to let users mimic
output format of "ack".
* "git grep" learned "-W" option that shows wider context using the same
logic used by "git diff" to determine the hunk header.
* "git rebase master topci" no longer spews usage hints after giving
"fatal: no such branch: topci" error message.
* "git stash" learned --include-untracked option.
* "git submodule update" used to stop at the first error updating a
submodule; it now goes on to update other submodules that can be
updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end.
* "git verify-pack" has been rewritten to use the "index-pack" machinery
that is more efficient in reading objects in packfiles.
* test scripts for gitweb tried to run even when CGI-related perl modules
are not installed; it now exits early when they are unavailable.
Also contains various documentation updates and minor miscellaneous
changes.
Fixes since v1.7.6
