1 Git v1.8.4.3 Release Notes
2 ========================
4 Fixes since v1.8.4.2
5 --------------------
7 * "git rev-list --objects ^v1.0^ v1.0" gave v1.0 tag itself in the
8 output, but "git rev-list --objects v1.0^..v1.0" did not.
10 * The fall-back parsing of commit objects with broken author or
11 committer lines were less robust than ideal in picking up the
12 timestamps.
14 * Bash prompting code to deal with an SVN remote as an upstream
15 were coded in a way not supported by older Bash versions (3.x).
17 * "git checkout topic", when there is not yet a local "topic" branch
18 but there is a unique remote-tracking branch for a remote "topic"
19 branch, pretended as if "git checkout -t -b topic remote/$r/topic"
20 (for that unique remote $r) was run. This hack however was not
21 implemented for "git checkout topic --".
23 * Coloring around octopus merges in "log --graph" output was screwy.
25 * We did not generate HTML version of documentation to "git subtree"
26 in contrib/.
28 * The synopsis section of "git unpack-objects" documentation has been
29 clarified a bit.
31 * An ancient How-To on serving Git repositories on an HTTP server
32 lacked a warning that it has been mostly superseded with more
33 modern way.
35 Also contains a handful of trivial code clean-ups, documentation
36 updates, updates to the test suite, etc.
