1 Git 1.7.12.2 Release Notes
2 ==========================
3
4 Fixes since v1.7.12.1
5 ---------------------
6
7 * When "git am" is fed an input that has multiple "Content-type: ..."
8 header, it did not grok charset= attribute correctly.
9
10 * Even during a conflicted merge, "git blame $path" always meant to
11 blame uncommitted changes to the "working tree" version; make it
12 more useful by showing cleanly merged parts as coming from the other
13 branch that is being merged.
14
15 * "git blame MAKEFILE" run in a history that has "Makefile" but not
16 "MAKEFILE" should say "No such file MAKEFILE in HEAD", but got
17 confused on a case insensitive filesystem and failed to do so.
18
19 * "git fetch --all", when passed "--no-tags", did not honor the
20 "--no-tags" option while fetching from individual remotes (the same
21 issue existed with "--tags", but combination "--all --tags" makes
22 much less sense than "--all --no-tags").
23
24 * "git log/diff/format-patch --stat" showed the "N line(s) added"
25 comment in user's locale and caused careless submitters to send
26 patches with such a line in them to projects whose project language
27 is not their language, mildly irritating others. Localization to
28 the line has been disabled for now.
29
30 * "git log --all-match --grep=A --grep=B" ought to show commits that
31 mention both A and B, but when these three options are used with
32 --author or --committer, it showed commits that mention either A or
33 B (or both) instead.
34
35 * The subcommand to remove the definition of a remote in "git remote"
36 was named "rm" even though all other subcommands were spelled out.
37 Introduce "git remote remove" to remove confusion, and keep "rm" as
38 a backward compatible synonym.
39
40 Also contains a handful of documentation updates.
