1 Git 1.8.1.1 Release Notes
2 =========================
7 * After failing to create a temporary file using mkstemp(), failing
8 pathname was not reported correctly on some platforms.
10 * http transport was wrong to ask for the username when the
11 authentication is done by certificate identity.
13 * After "git add -N" and then writing a tree object out of the
14 index, the cache-tree data structure got corrupted.
16 * "git pack-refs" that ran in parallel to another process that
17 created new refs had a race that can lose new ones.
19 * When a line to be wrapped has a solid run of non space characters
20 whose length exactly is the wrap width, "git shortlog -w" failed
21 to add a newline after such a line.
23 * "gitweb", when sorting by age to show repositories with new
24 activities first, used to sort repositories with absolutely
25 nothing in it early, which was not very useful.
27 * Some scripted programs written in Python did not get updated when
30 * We have been carrying a translated and long-unmaintained copy of an
31 old version of the tutorial; removed.
33 * Portability issues in many self-test scripts have been addressed.
36 Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates.
