   1 GIT v1.6.4.3 Release Notes
   2 ==========================
   3
   4 Fixes since v1.6.4.2
   5 --------------------
   6
   7 * "git clone" from an empty repository gave unnecessary error message,
   8   even though it did everything else correctly.
   9
  10 * "git cvsserver" invoked git commands via "git-foo" style, which has long
  11   been deprecated.
  12
  13 * "git fetch" and "git clone" had an extra sanity check to verify the
  14   presense of the corresponding *.pack file before downloading *.idx
  15   file by issuing a HEAD request.  Github server however sometimes
  16   gave 500 (Internal server error) response to HEAD even if a GET
  17   request for *.pack file to the same URL would have succeeded, and broke
  18   clone over HTTP from some of their repositories.  As a workaround, this
  19   verification has been removed (as it is not absolutely necessary).
  20
  21 * "git grep" did not like relative pathname to refer outside the current
  22   directory when run from a subdirectory.
  23
  24 * an error message from "git push" was formatted in a very ugly way.
  25
  26 * "git svn" did not quote the subversion user name correctly when
  27   running its author-prog helper program.
  28
  29 Other minor documentation updates are included.
