1 Git v2.44 Release Notes
2 =======================
4 UI, Workflows & Features
6 * "git add" and "git stash" learned to support the ":(attr:...)"
9 * "git rebase --autosquash" is now enabled for non-interactive rebase,
10 but it is still incompatible with the apply backend.
13 Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
15 * Process to add some form of low-level unit tests has started.
17 * Add support for GitLab CI.
19 * "git for-each-ref --no-sort" still sorted the refs alphabetically
20 which paid non-trivial cost. It has been redefined to show output
21 in an unspecified order, to allow certain optimizations to take
28 * The way CI testing used "prove" could lead to running the test
29 suite twice needlessly, which has been corrected.
30 (merge e7e03ef995 js/ci-discard-prove-state later to maint).
32 * Update ref-related tests.
34 * "git format-patch --encode-email-headers" ignored the option when
35 preparing the cover letter, which has been corrected.
37 * Newer versions of Getopt::Long started giving warnings against our
38 (ab)use of it in "git send-email". Bump the minimum version
39 requirement for Perl to 5.8.1 (from September 2002) to allow
40 simplifying our implementation.
41 (merge 6ff658cc78 tz/send-email-negatable-options later to maint).
43 * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
