   1 Git v1.7.11.5 Release Notes
   2 ===========================
   3
   4 Fixes since v1.7.11.4
   5 ---------------------
   6
   7  * The Makefile rule to create assembly output (primarily for
   8    debugging purposes) did not create it next to the source.
   9
  10  * The code to avoid mistaken attempt to add the object directory
  11    itself as its own alternate could read beyond end of a string while
  12    comparison.
  13
  14  * On some architectures, "block-sha1" did not compile correctly
  15    when compilers inferred alignment guarantees from our source we
  16    did not intend to make.
  17
  18  * When talking to a remote running ssh on IPv6 enabled host, whose
  19    address is spelled as "[HOST]:PORT", we did not parse the address
  20    correctly and failed to connect.
  21
  22  * git-blame.el (in compat/) have been updated to use Elisp more
  23    correctly.
  24
  25  * "git checkout <branchname>" to come back from a detached HEAD state
  26    incorrectly computed reachability of the detached HEAD, resulting
  27    in unnecessary warnings.
  28
  29  * "git mergetool" did not support --tool-help option to give the list
  30    of supported backends, like "git difftool" does.
  31
  32  * "git grep" stopped spawning an external "grep" long time ago, but a
  33    duplicated test to check internal and external "grep" was left
  34    behind.
  35
  36 Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates.
