1 Git v1.7.11.5 Release Notes
2 ===========================
7 * The Makefile rule to create assembly output (primarily for
8 debugging purposes) did not create it next to the source.
10 * On some architectures, "block-sha1" did not compile correctly
11 when compilers inferred alignment guarantees from our source we
12 did not intend to make.
14 * When talking to a remote running ssh on IPv6 enabled host, whose
15 address is spelled as "[HOST]:PORT", we did not parse the address
16 correctly and failed to connect.
18 * git-blame.el (in compat/) have been updated to use Elisp more
21 * "git checkout <branchname>" to come back from a detached HEAD state
22 incorrectly computed reachability of the detached HEAD, resulting
23 in unnecessary warnings.
25 * "git mergetool" did not support --tool-help option to give the list
26 of supported backends, like "git difftool" does.
28 Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates.
