Git v1.8.2 Release Notes
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
Backward compatibility notes
|
||||
----------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
In the upcoming major release (tentatively called 1.8.2), we will
|
||||
change the behavior of the "git push" command.
|
||||
|
||||
When "git push [$there]" does not say what to push, we have used the
|
||||
traditional "matching" semantics so far (all your branches were sent
|
||||
to the remote as long as there already are branches of the same name
|
||||
over there). We will use the "simple" semantics that pushes the
|
||||
current branch to the branch with the same name, only when the current
|
||||
branch is set to integrate with that remote branch. There is a user
|
||||
preference configuration variable "push.default" to change this.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Updates since v1.8.1

|
||||
Fixes since v1.8.1
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v1.8.1 in the maintenance
|
||||
track are contained in this release (see release notes to them for
|
||||
details).
|
||||
|
||||
* An element on GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES list that does not name the
|
||||
real path to a directory (i.e. a symbolic link) could have caused
|
||||
the GIT_DIR discovery logic to escape the ceiling.
|
||||
(merge 059b379 mh/ceiling later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* t4014, t9502 and t0200 tests had various portability issues that
|
||||
broke on OpenBSD.
|
||||
(merge 27f6342 jc/maint-test-portability later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* t9020 and t3600 tests had various portability issues.
|
||||
(merge 5a02966 jc/test-portability later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* t9200 runs "cvs init" on a directory that already exists, but a
|
||||
platform can configure this fail for the current user (e.g. you
|
||||
need to be in the cvsadmin group on NetBSD 6.0).
|
||||
(merge 8666df0 jc/test-cvs-no-init-in-existing-dir later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* After failing to create a temporary file using mkstemp(), failing
|
||||
pathname was not reported correctly on some platforms.
|
||||
(merge f7be59b jc/mkstemp-more-careful-error-reporting later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* The way "git svn" asked for password using SSH_ASKPASS and
|
||||
GIT_ASKPASS was not in line with the rest of the system.
|
||||
(merge e9263e4 ss/svn-prompt later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* The --graph code fell into infinite loop when asked to do what the
|
||||
code did not expect.
|
||||
(merge 656197a mk/maint-graph-infinity-loop later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* http transport was wrong to ask for the username when the
|
||||
authentication is done by certificate identity.
|
||||
(merge 75e9a40 rb/http-cert-cred-no-username-prompt later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* "git pack-refs" that ran in parallel to another process that
|
||||
created new refs had a nasty race.
|
||||
(merge b3f1280 jk/repack-ref-racefix later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* After "git add -N" and then writing a tree object out of the
|
||||
index, the cache-tree data structure got corrupted.
|
||||
(merge eec3e7e nd/invalidate-i-t-a-cache-tree later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* "gitweb", when sorting by age to show repositories with new
|
||||
activities first, used to sort repositories with absolutely
|
||||
nothing in it early, which was not very useful.
|
||||
(merge 28dae18 md/gitweb-sort-by-age later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* When a line to be wrapped has a solid run of non space characters
|
||||
whose length exactly is the wrap width, "git shortlog -w" failed
|
||||
to add a newline after such a line.
|
||||
(merge e0db176 sp/shortlog-missing-lf later to maint).
|
||||
|
||||
* Some shells do not behave correctly when IFS is unset; work it
|
||||
around by explicitly setting it to the default value.
|
||||
(merge 393050c jc/maint-fbsd-sh-ifs-workaround later to maint).
