1 GIT v1.5.1.1 Release Notes (draft)

2 ==========================

4 Fixes since v1.5.1

5 ------------------

7 * Documentation updates

9 - The --left-right option of rev-list and friends is documented.

11 - The documentation for cvsimport has been majorly improved.

13 * Bugfixes

15 - "git send-email" produced of References header of unbounded length;

16 fixed this with line-folding.

18 - "git archive" to download from remote site should not

19 require you to be in a git repository, but it incorrectly

20 did.

22 - "git apply" ignored -p<n> for "diff --git" formatted

23 patches.

25 - "git rerere" recorded a conflict that had one side empty

26 (the other side adds) incorrectly; this made merging in the

27 other direction fail to use previously recorded resolution.

29 - t4200 test was broken where "wc -l" pads its output with

30 spaces.

32 - "git branch -m old new" to rename branch did not work

33 without a configuration file in ".git/config".

35 - The sample hook for notification e-mail was misnamed.

37 - gitweb did not show type-changing patch correctly in the

38 blobdiff view.
