1 | Git v2.44 Release Notes |
| 2 | ======================= | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | UI, Workflows & Features | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | * "git add" and "git stash" learned to support the ":(attr:...)" | |
| 7 | magic pathspec. | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | * "git rebase --autosquash" is now enabled for non-interactive rebase, | |
| 10 | but it is still incompatible with the apply backend. | |
| 11 | ||
| 624eb90f JH |
12 | * Introduce "git replay", a tool meant on the server side without |
| 13 | working tree to recreate a history. | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | * "git merge-file" learned to take the "--diff-algorithm" option to | |
| 16 | use algorithm different from the default "myers" diff. | |
| 17 | ||

18 | |
| 19 | Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | * Process to add some form of low-level unit tests has started. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | * Add support for GitLab CI. | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | * "git for-each-ref --no-sort" still sorted the refs alphabetically | |
| 26 | which paid non-trivial cost. It has been redefined to show output | |
| 27 | in an unspecified order, to allow certain optimizations to take | |
| 28 | advantage of. | |
| 29 | ||
| 624eb90f JH |
30 | * Simplify API implementation to delete references by eliminating |
| 31 | duplication. | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | * Subject approxidate() and show_date() machinery to OSS-Fuzz. | |
| 34 | ||

35 | |
| 36 | Fixes since v2.43 | |
| 37 | ----------------- | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | * The way CI testing used "prove" could lead to running the test | |
| 40 | suite twice needlessly, which has been corrected. | |
| 41 | (merge e7e03ef995 js/ci-discard-prove-state later to maint). | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | * Update ref-related tests. | |
| 44 | ||
| 45 | * "git format-patch --encode-email-headers" ignored the option when | |
| 46 | preparing the cover letter, which has been corrected. | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | * Newer versions of Getopt::Long started giving warnings against our | |
| 49 | (ab)use of it in "git send-email". Bump the minimum version | |
| 50 | requirement for Perl to 5.8.1 (from September 2002) to allow | |
| 51 | simplifying our implementation. | |
| 52 | (merge 6ff658cc78 tz/send-email-negatable-options later to maint). | |
| 53 | ||
| 624eb90f JH |
54 | * Earlier we stopped relying on commit-graph that (still) records |
| 55 | information about commits that are lost from the object store, | |
| 56 | which has negative performance implications. The default has been | |
| 57 | flipped to disable this pessimization. | |
| 58 | (merge b1df3b3867 ps/commit-graph-less-paranoid later to maint). | |
| 59 | ||
| 60 | * Stale URLs have been updated to their current counterparts (or | |
| 61 | archive.org) and HTTP links are replaced with working HTTPS links. | |
| 62 | (merge 62b4f7b9c6 js/update-urls-in-doc-and-comment later to maint). | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | * trace2 streams used to record the URLs that potentially embed | |
| 65 | authentication material, which has been corrected. | |
| 66 | (merge 16fa3eebc0 jh/trace2-redact-auth later to maint). | |
| 67 | ||
| 1a87c842 | 68 | * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc. |
