1 Git v1.7.6.1 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.7.6
5 ------------------
7 * Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these
8 functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on
9 platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected.
11 * "git unexecutable" reported that "unexecutable" was not found, even
12 though the actual error was that "unexecutable" was found but did
13 not have a proper she-bang line to be executed.
15 * "git checkout -b <branch>" was confused when attempting to create a
16 branch whose name ends with "-g" followed by hexadecimal digits,
17 and refused to work.
19 * "git checkout -b <branch>" sometimes wrote a bogus reflog entry,
20 causing later "git checkout -" to fail.
22 * "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files.
24 * "git fast-export" forgot to quote pathnames with unsafe characters
25 in its output.
27 * "git fetch" did not recurse into submodules in subdirectories.
29 * "git ls-tree" did not error out when asked to show a corrupt tree.
31 * "git pull" without any argument left an extra whitespace after the
32 command name in its reflog.
34 * "git rebase -i -p" incorrectly dropped commits from side branches.
36 * "git reset [<commit>] paths..." did not reset the index entry correctly
37 for unmerged paths.
39 * "git submodule add" did not allow a relative repository path when
40 the superproject did not have any default remote url.
42 * "git submodule foreach" failed to correctly give the standard input to
43 the user-supplied command it invoked.
45 * submodules that the user has never showed interest in by running
46 "git submodule init" was incorrectly marked as interesting by "git
47 submodule sync".
49 * "git submodule update --quiet" was not really quiet.
51 * "git tag -l <glob>..." did not take multiple glob patterns from the
52 command line.
