1Git v1.7.10.2 Release Notes 2=========================== 3 4Fixes since v1.7.10.1 5--------------------- 6 7 * The test scaffolding for git-daemon was flaky. 8 9 * The test scaffolding for fast-import was flaky. 10 11 * The filesystem boundary was not correctly reported when .git directory 12 discovery stopped at a mount point. 13 14 * HTTP transport that requires authentication did not work correctly when 15 multiple connections are used simultaneously. 16 17 * In the older days, the header "Conflicts:" in "cherry-pick" and "merge" 18 was separated by a blank line from the list of paths that follow for 19 readability, but when "merge" was rewritten in C, we lost it by 20 mistake. Remove the newline from "cherry-pick" to make them match 21 again. 22 23 * The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can 24 be both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a 25 path in the context of the command. 26 27 * "git config --rename-section" to rename an existing section into a 28 bogus one did not check the new name. 29 30 * The "diff --no-index" codepath used limited-length buffers, risking 31 pathnames getting truncated. Update it to use the strbuf API. 32 33 * The report from "git fetch" said "new branch" even for a non branch 34 ref. 35 36 * Octopus merge strategy did not reduce heads that are recorded in the 37 final commit correctly. 38 39 * The i18n of error message "git stash save" was not properly done. 40 41 * When using a Perl script on a system where "perl" found on user's 42 $PATH could be ancient or otherwise broken, we allow builders to 43 specify the path to a good copy of Perl with $PERL_PATH. The 44 gitweb test forgot to use that Perl when running its test. 45 46Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
