* You can now set http.[<url>.]pinnedpubkey to specify the pinned
|
||||
public key when building with recent enough versions of libcURL.
|
||||
|
||||
* The configuration system has been taught to phrase where it found a
|
||||
bad configuration variable in a better way in its error messages.
|
||||
"git config" learnt a new "--show-origin" option to indicate where
|
||||
the values come from.
|
||||
|
||||
* The "credential-cache" daemon process used to run in whatever
|
||||
directory it happened to start in, but this made umount(2)ing the
|
||||
filesystem that houses the repository harder; now the process
|
||||
chdir()s to the directory that house its own socket on startup.
|
||||
|
||||
* When "git submodule update" did not result in fetching the commit
|
||||
object in the submodule that is referenced by the superproject, the
|
||||
command learned to retry another fetch, specifically asking for
|
||||
that commit that may not be connected to the refs it usually
|
||||
fetches.
|
||||
|
||||
* "git merge-recursive" learned "--no-renames" option to disable its
|
||||
rename detection logic.
|
||||
|
||||
* Across the transition at around Git version 2.0, the user used to
|
||||
get a pretty loud warning when running "git push" without setting
|
||||
push.default configuration variable. We no longer warn, given that
|
||||
the transition is over long time ago.
|
||||
|
||||
* README has been renamed to README.md and its contents got tweaked
|
||||
slightly to make it easier on the eyes.

variables has been streamlined.
|

|

* The ref-filter's format-parsing code has been refactored, in

preparation for "branch --format" and friends.
|

|

* Traditionally, the tests that try commands that work on the

contents in the working tree were named with "worktree" in their

filenames, but with the recent addition of "git worktree"
|
||||
subcommand, whose tests are also named similarly, it has become
|

harder to tell them apart. The traditional tests have been renamed

to use "work-tree" instead in an attempt to differentiate them.
