Release Notes +====================== + +Updates since v2.3 +------------------ + +Ports + + +UI, Workflows & Features + + * The command usage info strings given by "git cmd -h" and in + documentation have been tweaked for consistency. + + * The "sync" subcommand of "git p4" now allows users to exclude + subdirectories like its "clone" subcommand does. + + * "git log --invert-grep --grep=WIP" will show only commits that do + not have the string "WIP" in their messages. + + * "git push" has been taught a "--atomic" option that makes push to + update more than one ref an "all-or-none" affair. + + * Extending the "push to deploy" added in 2.3, the behaviour of "git + push" when updating the branch that is checked out can now be + tweaked by push-to-checkout hook. + + +Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. + + * Implementation of N_() macro has been updated slightly to help us + detect mistakes. + + * Implementation of "reflog expire" has been restructured to fit the + reflogs better with the recently updated ref API. + + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. + + +Fixes since v2.3 +---------------- + +Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.3 in the maintenance +track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases' +notes for details). + + * "git blame HEAD -- missing" failed to correctly say "HEAD" when it + tried to say "No such path 'missing' in HEAD". + (merge a46442f jk/blame-commit-label later to maint). + + * "git rerere" (invoked internally from many mergy operations) did + not correctly signal errors when told to update the working tree + files and failed to do so for whatever reason. + (merge 89ea903 jn/rerere-fail-on-auto-update-failure later to maint). + + * Setting diff.submodule to 'log' made "git format-patch" produce + broken patches. + (merge 339de50 dk/format-patch-ignore-diff-submodule later to maint). + + * After attempting and failing a password-less authentication + (e.g. kerberos), libcURL refuses to fall back to password based + Basic authentication without a bit of help/encouragement. + (merge 4dbe664 bc/http-fallback-to-password-after-krb-fails later to maint). -- 2.11.4.GIT
