1 Git v2.3.5 Release Notes
2 ========================
4 Fixes since v2.3.4
5 ------------------
7 * The prompt script (in contrib/) did not show the untracked sign
8 when working in a subdirectory without any untracked files.
10 * Even though "git grep --quiet" is run merely to ask for the exit
11 status, we spawned the pager regardless. Stop doing that.
13 * Recommend format-patch and send-email for those who want to submit
14 patches to this project.
16 * An failure early in the "git clone" that started creating the
17 working tree and repository could have resulted in some directories
18 and files left without getting cleaned up.
20 * "git fetch" that fetches a commit using the allow-tip-sha1-in-want
21 extension could have failed to fetch all the requested refs.
23 * The split-index mode introduced at v2.3.0-rc0~41 was broken in the
24 codepath to protect us against a broken reimplementation of Git
25 that writes an invalid index with duplicated index entries, etc.
27 * "git prune" used to largely ignore broken refs when deciding which
28 objects are still being used, which could spread an existing small
29 damage and make it a larger one.
31 * "git tag -h" used to show the "--column" and "--sort" options
32 that are about listing in a wrong section.
34 * The transfer.hiderefs support did not quite work for smart-http
35 transport.
37 * The code that reads from the ctags file in the completion script
38 (in contrib/) did not spell ${param/pattern/string} substitution
39 correctly, which happened to work with bash but not with zsh.
41 * The explanation on "rebase --preserve-merges", "pull --rebase=preserve",
42 and "push --force-with-lease" in the documentation was unclear.
44 Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
