1 Git v1.7.6.4 Release Notes
2 ==========================
7 * The error reporting logic of "git am" when the command is fed a file
8 whose mail-storage format is unknown was fixed.
10 * "git branch --set-upstream @{-1} foo" did not expand @{-1} correctly.
12 * "git check-ref-format --print" used to parrot a candidate string that
13 began with a slash (e.g. /refs/heads/master) without stripping it, to make
14 the result a suitably normalized string the caller can append to "$GIT_DIR/".
16 * "git clone" failed to clone locally from a ".git" file that itself
17 is not a directory but is a pointer to one.
19 * "git clone" from a local repository that borrows from another
20 object store using a relative path in its objects/info/alternates
21 file did not adjust the alternates in the resulting repository.
23 * "git describe --dirty" did not refresh the index before checking the
24 state of the working tree files.
26 * "git ls-files ../$path" that is run from a subdirectory reported errors
27 incorrectly when there is no such path that matches the given pathspec.
29 * "git mergetool" could loop forever prompting when nothing can be read
30 from the standard input.
32 Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
