1Git v1.7.5.2 Release Notes
2==========================
3
4The release notes to 1.7.5.1 forgot to mention:
5
6 * "git stash -p --no-keep-index" and "git stash --no-keep-index -p" now
7 mean the same thing.
8
9 * "git upload-pack" (hence "git push" over git native protocol) had a
10 subtle race condition that could lead to a deadlock.
11
12Fixes since v1.7.5.1

15 * "git add -p" did not work correctly when a hunk is split and then
16 one of them was given to the editor.
17
18 * "git add -u" did not resolve a conflict where our history deleted and
19 their history modified the same file, and the working tree resolved to
20 keep a file.
21

22 * "git cvsimport" did not know that CVSNT stores its password file in a
23 location different from the traditional CVS.
24
25 * "git diff-files" did not show the mode information from the working
26 tree side of an unmerged path correctly.
27
28 * "git diff -M --cached" used to use unmerged path as a possible rename
29 source candidate, which made no sense.
30

JH
31 * The option name parser in "git fast-import" used prefix matches for
32 some options where it shouldn't, and accepted non-existent options,
33 e.g. "--relative-marksmith" or "--forceps".
34
96dbe93d
JH
35 * "git format-patch" did not quote RFC822 special characters in the
36 email address (e.g From: Junio C. Hamano <jch@example.com>, not
37 From: "Junio C. Hamano" <jch@example.com>).
38
39 * "git format-patch" when run with "--quiet" option used to produce a
40 nonsense result that consists of alternating empty output.
41

JH
42 * In "git merge", per-branch branch.<name>.mergeoptions configuration
43 variables did not override the fallback default merge.<option>
44 configuration variables such as merge.ff, merge.log, etc.
45
375f8a03
JH
46 * "git merge-one-file" did not honor GIT_WORK_TREE settings when
47 handling a "both sides added, differently" conflict.
48
96dbe93d
JH
49 * "git mergetool" did not handle conflicted submoudules gracefully.
50
375f8a03
JH
51 * "git-p4" (in contrib) used a wrong base image while merge a file that
52 was added on both branches differently.
53
54 * "git rebase -i -p" failed to preserve the history when there is a
55 redundant merge created with the --no-ff option.
56
57And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
