1 Git 2.34 Release Notes
2 ======================
4 Updates since Git 2.33
5 ----------------------
7 UI, Workflows & Features
9 * Pathname expansion (like "~username/") learned a way to specify a
10 location relative to Git installation (e.g. its $sharedir which is
11 $(prefix)/share), with "%(prefix)".
14 Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
16 * "git bisect" spawned "git show-branch" only to pretty-print the
17 title of the commit after checking out the next version to be
18 tested; this has been rewritten in C.
20 * "git add" can work better with the sparse index.
22 * Support for ancient versions of cURL library (pre 7.19.4) has been
23 dropped.
25 * A handful of tests that assumed implementation details of files
26 backend for refs have been cleaned up.
28 * trace2 logs learned to show parent process name to see in what
29 context Git was invoked.

32 "git fetch-pack" has been optimized by taking advantage of the
33 commit graph when available.
