1 GIT v1.6.0.3 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.6.0.2
5 --------------------
7 * "git archive --format=zip" did not honor core.autocrlf while
8 --format=tar did.
10 * Continuing "git rebase -i" was very confused when the user left modified
11 files in the working tree while resolving conflicts.
13 * Continuing "git rebase -i" was also very confused when the user left
14 some staged changes in the index after "edit".
16 * "git rebase -i" now honors the pre-rebase hook, just like the
17 other rebase implementations "git rebase" and "git rebase -m".
19 * "git rebase -i" incorrectly aborted when there is no commit to replay.
21 * Behaviour of "git diff --quiet" was inconsistent with "diff --exit-code"
22 with the output redirected to /dev/null.
24 * "git diff --no-index" on binary files no longer outputs a bogus
25 "diff --git" header line.
27 * Hunk headers in "git diff" default to using extended regular
28 expressions, fixing some of the internal patterns on non-GNU
29 platforms.
31 * New config "diff.*.xfuncname" exposes extended regular expressions
32 for user specified hunk header patterns.
34 * "git index-pack" was recently broken and mishandled objects added by
35 thin-pack completion processing under memory pressure.
37 * "git stash apply sash@{1}" was fixed to error out. Prior versions
38 would have applied stash@{0} incorrectly.
40 * "git stash apply" now offers a better suggestion on how to continue
41 if the working tree is currently dirty.
43 * "git for-each-ref --format=%(subject)" fixed for commits with no
44 no newline in the message body.
46 * "git remote" fixed to protect printf from user input.
48 * "git remote show -v" now displays all URLs of a remote.
50 * "git checkout -q" once again suppresses the locally modified file list.
52 * "git clone -q", "git fetch -q" asks remote side to not send
53 progress messages, actually making their output quiet.
55 * Cross-directory renames are no longer used when creating packs. This
56 allows more graceful behavior on filesystems like sshfs.
58 * Stale temporary files under $GIT_DIR/objects/pack are now cleaned up
59 automatically by "git prune".
61 * "git merge" once again removes directories after the last file has
62 been removed from it during the merge.
64 * "git merge" did not allocate enough memory for the structure itself when
65 enumerating the parents of the resulting commit.
67 * "git blame -C -C" no longer segfaults while trying to pass blame if
68 it encounters a submodule reference.
70 * "git rm" incorrectly claimed that you have local modifications when a
71 path was merely stat-dirty.
73 * "git svn" fixed to display an error message when 'set-tree' failed,
74 instead of a Perl compile error.
76 * "git submodule" fixed to handle checking out a different commit
77 than HEAD after initializing the submodule.
79 * The "git commit" error message when there are still unmerged
80 files present was clarified to match "git write-tree".
82 * "git init" was confused when core.bare or core.sharedRepository are set
83 in system or user global configuration file by mistake. When --bare or
84 --shared is given from the command line, these now override such
85 settings made outside the repositories.
87 * Some segfaults due to uncaught NULL pointers were fixed in multiple
88 tools such as apply, reset, update-index.
90 * Solaris builds now default to OLD_ICONV=1 to avoid compile warnings;
91 Solaris 8 does not define NEEDS_LIBICONV by default.
93 * "Git.pm" tests relied on unnecessarily more recent version of Perl.
95 * "gitweb" triggered undef warning on commits without log messages.
97 * "gitweb" triggered undef warnings on missing trees.
99 * "gitweb" now removes PATH_INFO from its URLs so users don't have
100 to manually set the URL in the gitweb configuration.
102 * Bash completion removed support for legacy "git-fetch", "git-push"
103 and "git-pull" as these are no longer installed. Dashless form
104 ("git fetch") is still however supported.
106 Many other documentation updates.
