1 | Git 2.29 Release Notes |
| 2 | ====================== | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | Updates since v2.28 | |
| 5 | ------------------- | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | UI, Workflows & Features | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | * "git help log" has been enhanced by sharing more material from the | |
| 10 | documentation for the underlying "git rev-list" command. | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | * "git for-each-ref --format=<>" learned %(contents:size). | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | ||
| 15 | Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | * The changed-path Bloom filter is improved using ideas from an | |
| 18 | independent implementation. | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | * Updates to the changed-paths bloom filter. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | * The test framework has been updated so that most tests will run | |
| 23 | with predictable (artificial) timestamps. | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | * Preliminary clean-up of the refs API in preparation for adding a | |
| 26 | new refs backend "reftable". | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | * Dev support to limit the use of test_must_fail to only git commands. | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | ||
| 31 | Fixes since v2.28 | |
| 32 | ----------------- | |
| 33 | ||
| 34 | * "git clone --separate-git-dir=$elsewhere" used to stomp on the | |
| 35 | contents of the existing directory $elsewhere, which has been | |
| 36 | taught to fail when $elsewhere is not an empty directory. | |
| 37 | (merge dfaa209a79 bw/fail-cloning-into-non-empty later to maint). | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | ||
| 40 | * With the base fix to 2.27 regresion, any new extensions in a v0 | |
| 41 | repository would still be silently honored, which is not quite | |
| 42 | right. Instead, complain and die loudly. | |
| 43 | (merge ec91ffca04 jk/reject-newer-extensions-in-v0 later to maint). | |
| 44 | ||
| 45 | * Fetching from a lazily cloned repository resulted at the server | |
| 46 | side in attempts to lazy fetch objects that the client side has, | |
| 47 | many of which will not be available from the third-party anyway. | |
| 48 | (merge 77aa0941ce jt/avoid-lazy-fetching-upon-have-check later to maint). | |
| 49 | ||
| 50 | * Fix to an ancient bug caused by an over-eager attempt for | |
| 51 | optimization. | |
| 52 | (merge a98f7fb366 rs/add-index-entry-optim-fix later to maint). | |
| 53 | ||
| 54 | * Pushing a ref whose name contains non-ASCII character with the | |
| 55 | "--force-with-lease" option did not work over smart HTTP protocol, | |
| 56 | which has been corrected. | |
| 57 | (merge cd85b447bf bc/push-cas-cquoted-refname later to maint). | |
| 58 | ||
| 59 | * "git mv src dst", when src is an unmerged path, errored out | |
| 60 | correctly but with an incorrect error message to claim that src is | |
| 61 | not tracked, which has been clarified. | |
| 62 | (merge 9b906af657 ct/mv-unmerged-path-error later to maint). | |
| 63 | ||
| 64 | * Fix to a regression introduced during 2.27 cycle. | |
| 65 | (merge cada7308ad en/fill-directory-exponential later to maint). | |
| 66 | ||
| 67 | * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc. | |
