1Git v2.12.1 Release Notes 2========================= 3 4Fixes since v2.12 5----------------- 6 7 * Reduce authentication round-trip over HTTP when the server supports 8 just a single authentication method. This also improves the 9 behaviour when Git is misconfigured to enable http.emptyAuth 10 against a server that does not authenticate without a username 11 (i.e. not using Kerberos etc., which makes http.emptyAuth 12 pointless). 13 14 * Windows port wants to use OpenSSL's implementation of SHA-1 15 routines, so let them. 16 17 * Add 32-bit Linux variant to the set of platforms to be tested with 18 Travis CI. 19 20 * When a redirected http transport gets an error during the 21 redirected request, we ignored the error we got from the server, 22 and ended up giving a not-so-useful error message. 23 24 * The patch subcommand of "git add -i" was meant to have paths 25 selection prompt just like other subcommand, unlike "git add -p" 26 directly jumps to hunk selection. Recently, this was broken and 27 "add -i" lost the paths selection dialog, but it now has been 28 fixed. 29 30 * Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various 31 operations that verify paths given from the user stopped dying when 32 seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault. 33 34 * The code to parse "git log -L..." command line was buggy when there 35 are many ranges specified with -L; overrun of the allocated buffer 36 has been fixed. 37 38 * The command-line parsing of "git log -L" copied internal data 39 structures using incorrect size on ILP32 systems. 40 41Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
