1 Git v1.8.0.2 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.8.0.1
5 --------------------
7 * Various codepaths have workaround for a common misconfiguration to
8 spell "UTF-8" as "utf8", but it was not used uniformly. Most
9 notably, mailinfo (which is used by "git am") lacked this support.
11 * We failed to mention a file without any content change but whose
12 permission bit was modified, or (worse yet) a new file without any
13 content in the "git diff --stat" output.
15 * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for binary contents, the total
16 number of added and removed lines at the bottom was computed
17 incorrectly.
19 * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for unmerged paths, the total
20 number of affected files at the bottom of the "diff --stat" output
21 was computed incorrectly.
23 * "diff --shortstat" miscounted the total number of affected files
24 when there were unmerged paths.
26 * "git p4" used to try expanding malformed "$keyword$" that spans
27 across multiple lines.
29 * "git update-ref -d --deref SYM" to delete a ref through a symbolic
30 ref that points to it did not remove it correctly.
32 * Syntax highlighting in "gitweb" was not quite working.
34 Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates.
