1Git v1.7.4.3 Release Notes 2========================== 3 4Fixes since v1.7.4.2 5-------------------- 6 7 * "git apply" used to confuse lines updated by previous hunks as lines 8 that existed before when applying a hunk, contributing misapplication 9 of patches with offsets. 10 11 * "git branch --track" (and "git checkout --track --branch") used to 12 allow setting up a random non-branch that does not make sense to follow 13 as the "upstream". The command correctly diagnoses it as an error. 14 15 * "git checkout $other_branch" silently removed untracked symbolic links 16 in the working tree that are in the way in order to check out paths 17 under it from the named branch. 18 19 * "git cvsimport" did not bail out immediately when the cvs server cannot 20 be reached, spewing unnecessary error messages that complain about the 21 server response that it never got. 22 23 * "git diff --quiet" did not work very well with the "--diff-filter" 24 option. 25 26 * "git grep -n" lacked a long-hand synonym --line-number. 27 28 * "git stash apply" reported the result of its operation by running 29 "git status" from the top-level of the working tree; it should (and 30 now does) run it from the user's working directory. 31 32And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
