Git v1.7.9 Release Notes (draft)
========================
Updates since v1.7.8
--------------------
* Porcelain commands like "git reset" did not distinguish deletions
and type-changes from ordinary modification, and reported them with
the same 'M' moniker. They now use 'D' (for deletion) and 'T' (for
type-change) to match "git status -s" and "git diff --name-status".
* fsck and prune are relatively lengthy operations that still go
silent while making the end-user wait. They learned to give progress
output like other slow operations.
* The set of built-in function-header patterns for various languages
knows MATLAB.
* "git pull" can be used to fetch and merge an annotated/signed tag,
instead of the tip of a topic branch. The GPG signature from the
signed tag is recorded in the resulting merge commit for later
auditing.
* "git branch --edit-description" can be used to add descriptive text
to explain what a topic branch is about.
* "git fmt-merge-msg" learned to take the branch description into
account when preparing a merge summary that "git merge" records
when merging a local branch.
* "git request-pull" has been updated to convey more information
useful for integrators to decide if a topic is worth merging and
what is pulled is indeed what the requestor asked to pull,
including:
- the tip of the branch being requested to be merged;
- the branch description describing what the topic is about;
- the contents of the annotated tag, when requesting to pull a tag.
* "git pull" learned to notice 'pull.rebase' configuration variable,
which serves as a global fallback for setting 'branch.<name>.rebase'
configuration variable per branch.
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
Fixes since v1.7.8
------------------
* In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
(merge fc001b5 nd/maint-ignore-exclude later to maint).
