1 GIT v1.5.3.7 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.5.3.6
5 --------------------
7 * git-send-email added 8-bit contents to the payload without
8 marking it as 8-bit in a CTE header.
10 * "git-bundle create a.bndl HEAD" dereferenced the symref and
11 did not record the ref as 'HEAD'; this prevented a bundle
12 from being used as a normal source of git-clone.
14 * The code to reject nonsense command line of the form
15 "git-commit -a paths..." and "git-commit --interactive
16 paths..." were broken.
18 * Adding a signature that is not ASCII-only to an original
19 commit that is ASCII-only would make the result non-ASCII.
20 "git-format-patch -s" did not mark such a message correctly
21 with MIME encoding header.
23 * git-add sometimes did not mark the resulting index entry
24 stat-clean. This affected only cases when adding the
25 contents with the same length as the previously staged
26 contents, and the previous staging made the index entry
27 "racily clean".
29 * git-commit did not honor GIT_INDEX_FILE the user had in the
30 environment.
32 * When checking out a revision, git-checkout did not report where the
33 updated HEAD is if you happened to have a file called HEAD in the
34 work tree.
36 * "git-rev-list --objects" mishandled a tree that points at a
37 submodule.
39 * "git cvsimport" was not ready for packed refs that "git gc" can
40 produce and gave incorrect results.
42 * Many scripted Porcelains were confused when you happened to have a
43 file called "HEAD" in your work tree.
45 Also it contains updates to the user manual and documentation.
