| 1 | Git 1.8.1.6 Release Notes
|
|---|
| 2 | =========================
|
|---|
| 3 |
|
|---|
| 4 | Fixes since v1.8.1.5
|
|---|
| 5 | --------------------
|
|---|
| 6 |
|
|---|
| 7 | * An earlier change to the attribute system introduced at v1.8.1.2 by
|
|---|
| 8 | mistake stopped a pattern "dir" (without trailing slash) from
|
|---|
| 9 | matching a directory "dir" (it only wanted to allow pattern "dir/"
|
|---|
| 10 | to also match).
|
|---|
| 11 |
|
|---|
| 12 | * The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
|
|---|
| 13 | platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon a
|
|---|
| 14 | hash collision between these pathnames and looped forever.
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | * When the "--prefix" option is used to "checkout-index", the code
|
|---|
| 17 | did not pick the correct output filter based on the attribute
|
|---|
| 18 | setting.
|
|---|
| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | * Annotated tags outside refs/tags/ hierarchy were not advertised
|
|---|
| 21 | correctly to the ls-remote and fetch with recent version of Git.
|
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | * The logic used by "git diff -M --stat" to shorten the names of
|
|---|
| 24 | files before and after a rename did not work correctly when the
|
|---|
| 25 | common prefix and suffix between the two filenames overlapped.
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | * "git update-index -h" did not do the usual "-h(elp)" thing.
|
|---|
| 28 |
|
|---|
| 29 | * perl/Git.pm::cat_blob slurped everything in core only to write it
|
|---|
| 30 | out to a file descriptor, which was not a very smart thing to do.
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | * The SSL peer verification done by "git imap-send" did not ask for
|
|---|
| 33 | Server Name Indication (RFC 4366), failing to connect SSL/TLS
|
|---|
| 34 | sites that serve multiple hostnames on a single IP.
|
|---|
| 35 |
|
|---|
| 36 | * "git bundle verify" did not say "records a complete history" for a
|
|---|
| 37 | bundle that does not have any prerequisites.
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | Also contains various documentation fixes.
