Git v2.3 Release Notes
======================
Updates since v2.2
------------------
Ports
*
UI, Workflows & Features
* It was cumbersome to use "GIT_SSH" mechanism when the user wanted
to pass an extra set of arguments to the underlying ssh. A new
environment variable GIT_SSH_COMMAND can be used for this.
* A request to store an empty note via "git notes" meant to remove
note from the object but with --allow-empty we will store a
(surprise!) note that is empty.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
*
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
Fixes since v2.2
----------------
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.2 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).
* "git checkout $treeish $path", when $path in the index and the
working tree already matched what is in $treeish at the $path,
still overwrote the $path unnecessarily.
(merge c5326bd jk/checkout-from-tree later to maint).
* "git config --get-color" did not parse its command line arguments
carefully.
(merge cb35722 jk/colors-fix later to maint).
* open() emulated on Windows platforms did not give EISDIR upon
an attempt to open a directory for writing.
(merge ba6fad0 js/windows-open-eisdir-error later to maint).
* A few code paths used abs() when they should have used labs() on
long integers.
(merge 83915ba rs/maint-config-use-labs later to maint).
(merge 31a8aa1 rs/receive-pack-use-labs later to maint).
* "gitweb" used to depend on a behaviour recent CGI.pm deprecated.
(merge 13dbf46 jk/gitweb-with-newer-cgi-multi-param later to maint).
* "git init" (hence "git clone") initialized the per-repository
configuration file .git/config with x-bit by mistake.
(merge 1f32ecf mh/config-flip-xbit-back-after-checking later to maint).
* Git 2.0 was supposed to make the "simple" mode for the default of
"git push", but it didn't.
(merge 00a6fa0 jk/push-simple later to maint).
* "Everyday" document had a broken link.
(merge 366c8d4 po/everyday-doc later to maint).
* A few test fixes.
(merge 880ef58 jk/no-perl-tests later to maint).
* The build procedure did not bother fixing perl and python scripts
when NO_PERL and NO_PYTHON build-time configuration changed.
(merge ca2051d jk/rebuild-perl-scripts-with-no-perl-seting-change later to maint).
