1 GIT v1.5.3.5 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.5.3.4
5 --------------------
7 * Comes with git-gui 0.8.4.
9 * "git-config" silently ignored options after --list; now it will
10 error out with a usage message.
12 * "git-config --file" failed if the argument used a relative path
13 as it changed directories before opening the file.
15 * "git-config --file" now displays a proper error message if it
16 cannot read the file specified on the command line.
18 * "git-config", "git-diff", "git-apply" failed if run from a
19 subdirectory with relative GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE set.
21 * "git-blame" crashed if run during a merge conflict.
23 * "git-add -i" did not handle single line hunks correctly.
25 * "git-rebase -i" and "git-stash apply" failed if external diff
26 drivers were used for one or more files in a commit. They now
27 avoid calling the external diff drivers.
29 * "git-log --follow" did not work unless diff generation (e.g. -p)
30 was also requested.
32 * "git-log --follow -B" did not work at all. Fixed.
34 * "git-log -M -B" did not correctly handle cases of very large files
35 being renamed and replaced by very small files in the same commit.
37 * "git-log" printed extra newlines between commits when a diff
38 was generated internally (e.g. -S or --follow) but not displayed.
40 * "git-push" error message is more helpful when pushing to a
41 repository with no matching refs and none specified.
43 * "git-push" now respects + (force push) on wildcard refspecs,
44 matching the behavior of git-fetch.
46 * "git-filter-branch" now updates the working directory when it
47 has finished filtering the current branch.
49 * "git-instaweb" no longer fails on Mac OS X.
51 * "git-cvsexportcommit" didn't always create new parent directories
52 before trying to create new child directories. Fixed.
54 * "git-fetch" printed a scary (but bogus) error message while
55 fetching a tag that pointed to a tree or blob. The error did
56 not impact correctness, only user perception. The bogus error
57 is no longer printed.
59 * "git-ls-files --ignored" did not properly descend into non-ignored
60 directories that themselves contained ignored files if d_type
61 was not supported by the filesystem. This bug impacted systems
62 such as AFS. Fixed.
64 * Git segfaulted when reading an invalid .gitattributes file. Fixed.
66 * post-receive-email example hook fixed was fixed for
67 non-fast-forward updates.
69 * Documentation updates for supported (but previously undocumented)
70 options of "git-archive" and "git-reflog".
72 * "make clean" no longer deletes the configure script that ships
73 with the git tarball, making multiple architecture builds easier.
