1 GIT v1.5.0.2 Release Notes
2 ==========================
9 - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
10 diff across three trees.
12 - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
14 - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
17 - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
18 slashes after a/ and b/.
20 - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
21 message had too long line at the beginning.
23 - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
24 running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
25 was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
26 installing as root (especially problematic when the source
27 directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
29 - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
30 sorted next to each other.
32 - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
33 there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
34 symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
35 now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
37 - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
38 internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
39 impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
42 * Documentation updates
44 - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
46 - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
48 * Assorted git-gui fixes.
