1 | Git v1.7.11.2 Release Notes |
2 | =========================== | |
3 | ||
4 | Fixes since v1.7.11.1 | |
5 | --------------------- | |
6 | ||
7 | * On Cygwin, the platform pread(2) is not thread safe, just like our | |
8 | own compat/ emulation, and cannot be used in the index-pack | |
9 | program. Makefile variable NO_THREAD_SAFE_PREAD can be defined to | |
10 | avoid use of this function in a threaded program. | |
11 | ||
12 | * "git add" allows adding a regular file to the path where a | |
13 | submodule used to exist, but "git update-index" does not allow an | |
14 | equivalent operation to Porcelain writers. | |
15 | ||
16 | * "git archive" incorrectly computed the header checksum; the symptom | |
17 | was observed only when using pathnames with hi-bit set. | |
18 | ||
19 | * "git blame" did not try to make sure that the abbreviated commit | |
20 | object names in its output are unique. | |
21 | ||
22 | * Running "git bundle verify" on a bundle that records a complete | |
23 | history said "it requires these 0 commits". | |
24 | ||
25 | * "git clone --single-branch" to clone a single branch did not limit | |
26 | the cloning to the specified branch. | |
27 | ||
28 | * "git diff --no-index" did not correctly handle relative paths and | |
29 | did not correctly give exit codes when run under "--quiet" option. | |
30 | ||
31 | * "git diff --no-index" did not work with pagers correctly. | |
32 | ||
33 | * "git diff COPYING HEAD:COPYING" gave a nonsense error message that | |
bb8040f9 | 34 | claimed that the tree-ish HEAD did not have COPYING in it. |

35 | |
36 | * When "git log" gets "--simplify-merges/by-decoration" together with | |
37 | "--first-parent", the combination of these options makes the | |
38 | simplification logic to use in-core commit objects that haven't | |
39 | been examined for relevance, either producing incorrect result or | |
40 | taking too long to produce any output. Teach the simplification | |
41 | logic to ignore commits that the first-parent traversal logic | |
42 | ignored when both are in effect to work around the issue. | |
43 | ||
44 | * "git ls-files --exclude=t -i" did not consider anything under t/ as | |
45 | excluded, as it did not pay attention to exclusion of leading paths | |
46 | while walking the index. Other two users of excluded() are also | |
47 | updated. | |
48 | ||
49 | * "git request-pull $url dev" when the tip of "dev" branch was tagged | |
50 | with "ext4-for-linus" used the contents from the tag in the output | |
51 | but still asked the "dev" branch to be pulled, not the tag. | |
52 | ||
53 | Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates. |
