1 Git v2.3.8 Release Notes
2 ========================
3
4 Fixes since v2.3.7
5 ------------------
6
7 * The usual "git diff" when seeing a file turning into a directory
8 showed a patchset to remove the file and create all files in the
9 directory, but "git diff --no-index" simply refused to work. Also,
10 when asked to compare a file and a directory, imitate POSIX "diff"
11 and compare the file with the file with the same name in the
12 directory, instead of refusing to run.
13
14 * The default $HOME/.gitconfig file created upon "git config --global"
15 that edits it had incorrectly spelled user.name and user.email
16 entries in it.
17
18 * "git commit --date=now" or anything that relies on approxidate lost
19 the daylight-saving-time offset.
20
21 Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
22 clean-ups.
