1 | Git v1.7.5.1 Release Notes |
2 | ========================== | |
3 | ||
4 | Fixes since v1.7.5 | |
5 | ------------------ | |
6 | ||
2f312e88 JH |
7 | * When an object "$tree:$path" does not exist, if $path does exist in the |
8 | subtree of $tree that corresponds to the subdirectory the user is in, | |
9 | git now suggests using "$tree:./$path" in addition to the advice to use | |
10 | the full path from the root of the working tree. | |
11 | ||
65f13f20 JH |
12 | * The "--date=relative" output format used to say "X years, 12 months" |
13 | when it should have said "X+1 years". | |
14 | ||
2f312e88 JH |
15 | * The smart-HTTP transfer was broken in 1.7.5 when the client needs |
16 | to issue a small POST (which uses content-length) and then a large | |
17 | POST (which uses chunked) back to back. | |
18 | ||
19 | * "git clean" used to fail on an empty directory that is not readable, | |
20 | even though rmdir(2) could remove such a directory. Now we attempt it | |
21 | as the last resort. | |
22 | ||
23 | * The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to totally | |
24 | ignore a change that only rearranged lines within a file. Such a | |
25 | change now counts as at least a minimum but non zero change. | |
26 | ||
27 | * The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to use the | |
28 | pathname in the original, instead of the pathname in the result, | |
29 | when renames are involved. | |
30 | ||
31 | * "git pack-object" did not take core.bigfilethreashold into account | |
32 | (unlike fast-import); now it does. | |
33 | ||
34 | * "git reflog" ignored options like "--format=.." on the command line. | |
35 | ||
36 | * "git stash apply" used to refuse to work if there was any change in | |
37 | the working tree, even when the change did not overlap with the change | |
38 | the stash recorded. | |
39 | ||
40 | * "git stash apply @{99999}" was not diagnosed as an error, even when you | |
41 | did not have that many stash entries. | |
42 | ||
65f13f20 JH |
43 | * An error message from "git send-email" to diagnose a broken SMTP |
44 | connection configuration lacked a space between "hello=<smtp-domain>" | |
45 | and "port=<smtp-server-port>". | |
46 | ||
47 | And other minor fixes and documentation updates. |
