   1Git v2.13.2 Release Notes
   2=========================
   3
   4Fixes since v2.13.1
   5-------------------
   6
   7 * The "collision detecting" SHA-1 implementation shipped with 2.13.1
   8   was still broken on some platforms.  Update to the upstream code
   9   again to take their fix.
  10
  11 * "git checkout --recurse-submodules" did not quite work with a
  12   submodule that itself has submodules.
  13
  14 * Introduce the BUG() macro to improve die("BUG: ...").
  15
  16 * The "run-command" API implementation has been made more robust
  17   against dead-locking in a threaded environment.
  18
  19 * A recent update to t5545-push-options.sh started skipping all the
  20   tests in the script when a web server testing is disabled or
  21   unavailable, not just the ones that require a web server.  Non HTTP
  22   tests have been salvaged to always run in this script.
  23
  24 * "git clean -d" used to clean directories that has ignored files,
  25   even though the command should not lose ignored ones without "-x".
  26   "git status --ignored"  did not list ignored and untracked files
  27   without "-uall".  These have been corrected.
  28
  29 * The timestamp of the index file is now taken after the file is
  30   closed, to help Windows, on which a stale timestamp is reported by
  31   fstat() on a file that is opened for writing and data was written
  32   but not yet closed.
  33
  34 * "git pull --rebase --autostash" didn't auto-stash when the local history
  35   fast-forwards to the upstream.
  36
  37 * "git describe --contains" penalized light-weight tags so much that
  38   they were almost never considered.  Instead, give them about the
  39   same chance to be considered as an annotated tag that is the same
  40   age as the underlying commit would.
  41
  42 * The result from "git diff" that compares two blobs, e.g. "git diff
  43   $commit1:$path $commit2:$path", used to be shown with the full
  44   object name as given on the command line, but it is more natural to
  45   use the $path in the output and use it to look up .gitattributes.
  46
  47 * A flaky test has been corrected.
  48
  49 * Help contributors that visit us at GitHub.
  50
  51 * "git stash push <pathspec>" did not work from a subdirectory at all.
  52   Bugfix for a topic in v2.13
