1 Git 2.12 Release Notes
2 ======================
4 Backward compatibility notes.
6 * Use of an empty string that is used for 'everything matches' is
7 still warned and Git asks users to use a more explicit '.' for that
8 instead. The hope is that existing users will not mind this
9 change, and eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error,
10 upgrading the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature. That
11 is not scheduled to happen in the upcoming release (yet).
13 * The historical argument order "git merge <msg> HEAD <commit>..."
14 has been deprecated for quite some time, and will be removed in the
15 upcoming release.
