1Git v2.8.4 Release Notes 2======================== 3 4Fixes since v2.8.3 5------------------ 6 7 * Documentation for "git merge --verify-signatures" has been updated 8 to clarify that the signature of only the commit at the tip is 9 verified. Also the phrasing used for signature and key validity is 10 adjusted to align with that used by OpenPGP. 11 12 * On Windows, .git and optionally any files whose name starts with a 13 dot are now marked as hidden, with a core.hideDotFiles knob to 14 customize this behaviour. 15 16 * Portability enhancement for "rebase -i" to help platforms whose 17 shell does not like "for i in <empty>" (which is not POSIX-kosher). 18 19 * "git fsck" learned to catch NUL byte in a commit object as 20 potential error and warn. 21 22 * CI test was taught to build documentation pages. 23 24 * Many 'linkgit:<git documentation page>' references were broken, 25 which are all fixed with this. 26 27Also contains other minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
