1 Git 2.30 Release Notes
2 ======================
4 Updates since v2.29
5 -------------------
7 UI, Workflows & Features
9 * Userdiff for PHP update.
11 * Userdiff for Rust update.
13 * Userdiff for CSS update.
15 * The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned that "git
16 stash show" takes the options "git diff" takes.
18 * "git worktree list" now shows if each worktree is locked. This
19 possibly may open us to show other kinds of states in the future.
21 * "git maintenance", an extended big brother of "git gc", continues
22 to evolve.
24 * "git push --force-with-lease[=<ref>]" can easily be misused to lose
25 commits unless the user takes good care of their own "git fetch".
26 A new option "--force-if-includes" attempts to ensure that what is
27 being force-pushed was created after examining the commit at the
28 tip of the remote ref that is about to be force-replaced.
30 * "git clone" learned clone.defaultremotename configuration variable
31 to customize what nickname to use to call the remote the repository
32 was cloned from.
34 * "git checkout" learned to use checkout.guess configuration variable
35 and enable/disable its "--[no-]guess" option accordingly.
37 * "git resurrect" script (in contrib/) learned that the object names
38 may be longer than 40-hex depending on the hash function in use.
41 Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
43 * Use "git archive" more to produce the release tarball.
45 * GitHub Actions automated test improvement to skip tests on a tree
46 identical to what has already been tested.
49 Fixes since v2.29
50 -----------------
52 * In 2.29, "--committer-date-is-author-date" option of "rebase" and
53 "am" subcommands lost the e-mail address by mistake, which has been
54 corrected.
55 (merge 5f35edd9d7 jk/committer-date-is-author-date-fix later to maint).
57 * "git checkout -p A...B [-- <path>]" did not work, even though the
58 same command without "-p" correctly used the merge-base between
59 commits A and B.
60 (merge 35166b1fb5 dl/checkout-p-merge-base later to maint).
62 * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
63 (merge 3e0a5dc9af cc/doc-filter-branch-typofix later to maint).
64 (merge 32c83afc2c cw/ci-ghwf-check-ws-errors later to maint).
65 (merge 5eb2ed691b rs/tighten-callers-of-deref-tag later to maint).
