1 | GIT v1.6.4.2 Release Notes |
2 | ========================== | |
3 | ||
4 | Fixes since v1.6.4.1 | |
5 | -------------------- | |
6 | ||
7 | * --date=relative output between 1 and 5 years ago rounded the number of | |
8 | years when saying X years Y months ago, instead of rounding it down. | |
9 | ||
10 | * "git add -p" did not handle changes in executable bits correctly | |
11 | (a regression around 1.6.3). | |
12 | ||
13 | * "git apply" did not honor GNU diff's convention to mark the creation/deletion | |
14 | event with UNIX epoch timestamp on missing side. | |
15 | ||
16 | * "git checkout" incorrectly removed files in a directory pointed by a | |
17 | symbolic link during a branch switch that replaces a directory with | |
18 | a symbolic link. | |
19 | ||
20 | * "git clean -d -f" happily descended into a subdirectory that is managed by a | |
21 | separate git repository. It now requires two -f options for safety. | |
22 | ||
23 | * "git fetch/push" over http transports had two rather grave bugs. | |
24 | ||
25 | * "git format-patch --cover-letter" did not prepare the cover letter file | |
26 | for use with non-ASCII strings when there are the series contributors with | |
27 | non-ASCII names. | |
28 | ||
29 | * "git pull origin branch" and "git fetch origin && git merge origin/branch" | |
30 | left different merge messages in the resulting commit. | |
31 | ||
32 | Other minor documentation updates are included. |
