1 Git 1.7.12.2 Release Notes
2 ==========================
7 * Even during a conflicted merge, "git blame $path" always meant to
8 blame uncommitted changes to the "working tree" version; make it
9 more useful by showing cleanly merged parts as coming from the other
10 branch that is being merged.
12 * "git blame MAKEFILE" run in a history that has "Makefile" but not
13 "MAKEFILE" should say "No such file MAKEFILE in HEAD", but got
14 confused on a case insensitive filesystem and failed to do so.
16 * "git fetch --all", when passed "--no-tags", did not honor the
17 "--no-tags" option while fetching from individual remotes (the same
18 issue existed with "--tags", but combination "--all --tags" makes
19 much less sense than "--all --no-tags").
21 * "git log/diff/format-patch --stat" showed the "N line(s) added"
22 comment in user's locale and caused careless submitters to send
23 patches with such a line in them to projects whose project language
24 is not their language, mildly irritating others. Localization to
25 the line has been disabled for now.
27 * The subcommand to remove the definition of a remote in "git remote"
28 was named "rm" even though all other subcommands were spelled out.
29 Introduce "git remote remove" to remove confusion, and keep "rm" as
30 a backward compatible synonym.
32 Also contains a handful of documentation updates.
