1 | GIT v1.5.4.6 Release Notes |
2 | ========================== | |
3 | ||
4 | I personally do not think there is any reason anybody should want to | |
5 | run v1.5.4.X series these days, because 'master' version is always | |
6 | more stable than any tagged released version of git. | |
7 | ||
8 | This is primarily to futureproof "git-shell" to accept requests | |
9 | without a dash between "git" and subcommand name (e.g. "git | |
10 | upload-pack") which the newer client will start to make sometime in | |
11 | the future. | |
12 | ||
13 | Fixes since v1.5.4.5 | |
14 | -------------------- | |
15 | ||
16 | * Command line option "-n" to "git-repack" was not correctly parsed. | |
17 | ||
18 | * Error messages from "git-apply" when the patchfile cannot be opened | |
19 | have been improved. | |
20 | ||
21 | * Error messages from "git-bisect" when given nonsense revisions have | |
22 | been improved. | |
23 | ||
24 | * reflog syntax that uses time e.g. "HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path" did not | |
25 | stop parsing at the closing "}". | |
26 | ||
27 | * "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name ^master^2" printed solitary "^", | |
28 | but it should print nothing. | |
29 | ||
30 | * "git apply" did not enforce "match at the beginning" correctly. | |
31 | ||
32 | * a path specification "a/b" in .gitattributes file should not match | |
33 | "sub/a/b", but it did. | |
34 | ||
35 | * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier | |
36 | date-order with topo-order as expected. | |
37 | ||
38 | * "git fast-export" did not export octopus merges correctly. | |
39 | ||
40 | * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes. | |
41 | ||
42 | As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications. | |
