Git v1.9.2 Release Notes
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.9.1
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
* Documentation and in-code comments had many instances of mistaken
|
|
use of "nor", which have been corrected.
|
|
|
|
* "git fetch --prune", when the right-hand-side of multiple fetch
|
|
refspecs overlap (e.g. storing "refs/heads/*" to
|
|
"refs/remotes/origin/*", while storing "refs/frotz/*" to
|
|
"refs/remotes/origin/fr/*"), aggressively thought that lack of
|
|
"refs/heads/fr/otz" on the origin site meant we should remove
|
|
"refs/remotes/origin/fr/otz" from us, without checking their
|
|
"refs/frotz/otz" first.
|
|
|
|
Note that such a configuration is inherently unsafe (think what
|
|
should happen when "refs/heads/fr/otz" does appear on the origin
|
|
site), but that is not a reason not to be extra careful.
|
|
|
|
* "git update-ref --stdin" did not fail a request to create a ref
|
|
when the ref already existed.
|
|
|
|
* "git diff --no-index -Mq a b" fell into an infinite loop.
|
|
|
|
* When it is not necessary to edit a commit log message (e.g. "git
|
|
commit -m" is given a message without specifying "-e"), we used to
|
|
disable the spawning of the editor by overriding GIT_EDITOR, but
|
|
this means all the uses of the editor, other than to edit the
|
|
commit log message, are also affected.
|
|
|
|
* "git status --porcelain --branch" showed its output with labels
|
|
"ahead/behind/gone" translated to the user's locale.
|
|
|
|
* "git mv" that moves a submodule forgot to adjust the array that
|
|
uses to keep track of which submodules were to be moved to update
|
|
its configuration.
|
|
|
|
* Length limit for the pathname used when removing a path in a deep
|
|
subdirectory has been removed to avoid buffer overflows.
|
|
|
|
* The test helper lib-terminal always run an actual test_expect_*
|
|
when included, which screwed up with the use of skil-all that may
|
|
have to be done later.
|
|
|
|
* "git index-pack" used a wrong variable to name the keep-file in an
|
|
error message when the file cannot be written or closed.
|
|
|
|
* "rebase -i" produced a broken insn sheet when the title of a commit
|
|
happened to contain '\n' (or ended with '\c') due to a careless use
|
|
of 'echo'.
|
|
|
|
* There were a few instances of 'git-foo' remaining in the
|
|
documentation that should have been spelled 'git foo'.
|
|
|
|
* Serving objects from a shallow repository needs to write a
|
|
new file to hold the temporary shallow boundaries but it was not
|
|
cleaned when we exit due to die() or a signal.
|
|
|
|
* When "git stash pop" stops after failing to apply the stash
|
|
(e.g. due to conflicting changes), the stash is not dropped. State
|
|
that explicitly in the output to let the users know.
|
|
|
|
* The labels in "git status" output that describe the nature of
|
|
conflicts (e.g. "both deleted") were limited to 20 bytes, which was
|
|
too short for some l10n (e.g. fr).
