1 Git v1.7.2.3 Release Notes
2 ==========================
3
4 Fixes since v1.7.2.2
5 --------------------
6
7 * When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, we
8 threw an assertion failure.
9
10 * "git archive" gave the full commit ID for "$Format:%h$".
11
12 * "git fetch --tags" did not fetch tags when remote.<nick>.tagopt was set
13 to --no-tags. The command line option now overrides the configuration
14 setting.
15
16 * "git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname:short)'" has been completely
17 broken for a long time.
18
19 * "git gc" incorrectly pruned a rerere record that was created long
20 time ago but still is actively and repeatedly used.
21
22 * "git log --follow -M -p" was seriously broken in 1.7.2, reporting
23 assertion failure.
24
25 * Running "git log" with an incorrect option started pager nevertheless,
26 forcing the user to dismiss it.
27
28 * "git rebase" did not work well when the user has diff.renames
29 configuration variable set.
30
31 * An earlier (and rather old) fix to "git rebase" against a rebased
32 upstream broke a more normal, non rebased upstream case rather badly,
33 attempting to re-apply patches that are already accepted upstream.
34
35 * "git submodule sync" forgot to update the superproject's config file
36 when submodule URL changed.
37
38 * "git pack-refs --all --prune" did not remove a directory that has
39 become empty.
