1 | Git v2.10.3 Release Notes |
2 | ========================= | |
3 | ||
4 | Fixes since v2.10.2 | |
5 | ------------------- | |
6 | ||
7 | * Extract a small helper out of the function that reads the authors | |
8 | script file "git am" internally uses. | |
9 | This by itself is not useful until a second caller appears in the | |
10 | future for "rebase -i" helper. | |
11 | ||
12 | * The command-line completion script (in contrib/) learned to | |
13 | complete "git cmd ^mas<HT>" to complete the negative end of | |
14 | reference to "git cmd ^master". | |
15 | ||
16 | * "git send-email" attempts to pick up valid e-mails from the | |
17 | trailers, but people in real world write non-addresses there, like | |
18 | "Cc: Stable <add@re.ss> # 4.8+", which broke the output depending | |
19 | on the availability and vintage of Mail::Address perl module. | |
20 | ||
21 | * The code that we have used for the past 10+ years to cycle | |
22 | 4-element ring buffers turns out to be not quite portable in | |
23 | theoretical world. | |
24 | ||
25 | * "git daemon" used fixed-length buffers to turn URL to the | |
26 | repository the client asked for into the server side directory | |
27 | path, using snprintf() to avoid overflowing these buffers, but | |
28 | allowed possibly truncated paths to the directory. This has been | |
29 | tightened to reject such a request that causes overlong path to be | |
30 | required to serve. | |
31 | ||
32 | * Recent update to git-sh-setup (a library of shell functions that | |
33 | are used by our in-tree scripted Porcelain commands) included | |
34 | another shell library git-sh-i18n without specifying where it is, | |
35 | relying on the $PATH. This has been fixed to be more explicit by | |
36 | prefixing $(git --exec-path) output in front. | |
37 | ||
38 | * Fix for a racy false-positive test failure. | |
39 | ||
40 | * Portability update and workaround for builds on recent Mac OS X. | |
41 | ||
42 | * Update to the test framework made in 2.9 timeframe broke running | |
43 | the tests under valgrind, which has been fixed. | |
44 | ||
45 | * Improve the rule to convert "unsigned char [20]" into "struct | |
46 | object_id *" in contrib/coccinelle/ | |
47 | ||
840ed141 JH |
48 | * "git-shell" rejects a request to serve a repository whose name |
49 | begins with a dash, which makes it no longer possible to get it | |
50 | confused into spawning service programs like "git-upload-pack" with | |
51 | an option like "--help", which in turn would spawn an interactive | |
52 | pager, instead of working with the repository user asked to access | |
53 | (i.e. the one whose name is "--help"). | |
54 | ||
c3808ca6 | 55 | Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
