15* Bugfixes
16
9b11d24d
JH
17 - The implementation of -p option in "git cvsexportcommit" had
18 the meaning of -C (context reduction) option wrong, and
19 loosened the context requirements when it was told to be
20 strict.
21
22 - "git cvsserver" did not behave like the real cvsserver when
23 client side removed a file from the working tree without
24 doing anything else on the path. In such a case, it should
25 restore it from the checked out revision.
26
27 - "git fsck" issued an alarming error message on detached
28 HEAD. It is not an error since at least 1.5.0.
29

JH
30 - "git send-email" produced of References header of unbounded length;
31 fixed this with line-folding.
32
33 - "git archive" to download from remote site should not
34 require you to be in a git repository, but it incorrectly
35 did.
36
37 - "git apply" ignored -p<n> for "diff --git" formatted
38 patches.
39
40 - "git rerere" recorded a conflict that had one side empty
41 (the other side adds) incorrectly; this made merging in the
42 other direction fail to use previously recorded resolution.
43
44 - t4200 test was broken where "wc -l" pads its output with
45 spaces.
46
47 - "git branch -m old new" to rename branch did not work
48 without a configuration file in ".git/config".
49
50 - The sample hook for notification e-mail was misnamed.
51
52 - gitweb did not show type-changing patch correctly in the
53 blobdiff view.
54

JH
55 - git-svn did not error out with incorrect command line options.
56
57 - git-svn fell into an infinite loop when insanely long commit
58 message was found.

9b11d24d
JH
60 - git-svn dcommit and rebase was confused by patches that were
61 merged from another branch that is managed by git-svn.

EW
62
63 - git-svn used to get confused when globbing remote branch/tag
64 spec (e.g. "branches = proj/branches/*:refs/remotes/origin/*")
65 is used and there was a plain file that matched the glob.
