1 GIT v1.6.0.2 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.6.0.1
5 --------------------
7 * Installation on platforms that needs .exe suffix to git-* programs were
8 broken in 1.6.0.1.
10 * Installation on filesystems without symbolic links support did nto
11 work well.
13 * In-tree documentations and test scripts now use "git foo" form to set a
14 better example, instead of the "git-foo" form (which is an acceptable
15 form if you have "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH" in your script)
17 * Many commands did not use the correct working tree location when used
18 with GIT_WORK_TREE environment settings.
21 * "git apply --unidiff-zero" incorrectly applied a -U0 patch that inserts
22 a new line before the second line.
24 * "git blame -c" did not exactly work like "git annotate" when range
25 boundaries are involved.
27 * "git clone $there $here/" with extra trailing slashes after explicit
28 local directory name $here did not work as expected.
30 * "git diff --dirstat -M" did not add changes in subdirectories up
31 correctly for renamed paths.
33 * "git diff --cumulative" did not imply "--dirstat".
35 * "git for-each-ref refs/heads/" did not work as expected.
37 * "git gui" allowed users to feed patch without any context to be applied.
39 * "git gui" botched parsing "diff" output when a line that begins with two
40 dashes and a space gets removed or a line that begins with two pluses
41 and a space gets added.
43 * "git gui" translation updates and i18n fixes.
45 * "git log -i --grep=pattern" did not ignore case; neither "git log -E
46 --grep=pattern" triggered extended regexp.
48 * "git log --pretty="%ad" --date=short" did not use short format when
49 showing the timestamp.
51 * Build procedure for "git shell" that used stub versions of some
52 functions and globals was not understood by linkers on some platforms.
54 * "git stash" was fooled by a stat-dirty but otherwise unmodified paths
55 and refused to work until the user refreshed the index.
57 * "git verify-pack -v" did not work correctly when given more than one
58 packfile.
60 Also contains many documentation updates.
