1 | GIT v1.6.0.5 Release Notes |
2 | ========================== | |
3 | ||
4 | Fixes since v1.6.0.4 | |
5 | -------------------- | |
6 | ||
1c2ed59d | 7 | * "git checkout" used to crash when your HEAD was pointing at a deleted |
c14639f7 JH |
8 | branch. |
9 | ||
1c2ed59d | 10 | * "git checkout" from an un-checked-out state did not allow switching out |
c14639f7 JH |
11 | of the current branch. |
12 | ||
1c2ed59d | 13 | * "git diff" always allowed GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF and --no-ext-diff was no-op for |
5359fde8 JH |
14 | the command. |
15 | ||
1c2ed59d JH |
16 | * Giving 3 or more tree-ish to "git diff" is supposed to show the combined |
17 | diff from second and subsequent trees to the first one, but the order was | |
18 | screwed up. | |
5359fde8 | 19 | |
1c2ed59d JH |
20 | * "git fast-export" did not export all tags. |
21 | ||
22 | * "git ls-files --with-tree=<tree>" did not work with options other | |
5359fde8 JH |
23 | than -c, most notably with -m. |
24 | ||
1c2ed59d | 25 | * "git pack-objects" did not make its best effort to honor --max-pack-size |
c14639f7 JH |
26 | option when a single first object already busted the given limit and |
27 | placed many objects in a single pack. | |
28 | ||
1c2ed59d | 29 | * "git-p4" fast import frontend was too eager to trigger its keyword expansion |
5359fde8 JH |
30 | logic, even on a keyword-looking string that does not have closing '$' on the |
31 | same line. | |
32 | ||
1c2ed59d | 33 | * "git push $there" when the remote $there is defined in $GIT_DIR/branches/$there |
5359fde8 JH |
34 | behaves more like what cg-push from Cogito used to work. |
35 | ||
1c2ed59d JH |
36 | * when giving up resolving a conflicted merge, "git reset --hard" failed |
37 | to remove new paths from the working tree. | |
5359fde8 | 38 | |
1c2ed59d | 39 | * "git tag" did not complain when given mutually incompatible set of options. |
c14639f7 | 40 | |
1c2ed59d JH |
41 | * The message constructed in the internal editor was discarded when "git |
42 | tag -s" failed to sign the message, which was often caused by the user | |
43 | not configuring GPG correctly. | |
c14639f7 | 44 | |
1c2ed59d JH |
45 | * "make check" cannot be run without sparse; people may have meant to say |
46 | "make test" instead, so suggest that. | |
47 | ||
48 | * Internal diff machinery had a corner case performance bug that choked on | |
49 | a large file with many repeated contents. | |
5359fde8 | 50 | |
1c2ed59d JH |
51 | * "git repack" used to grab objects out of packs marked with .keep |
52 | into a new pack. | |
5359fde8 | 53 | |
1c2ed59d JH |
54 | * Many unsafe call to sprintf() style varargs functions are corrected. |
55 | ||
56 | * Also contains quite a few documentation updates. |
