1Git v1.7.6.1 Release Notes 2========================== 3 4Fixes since v1.7.6 5------------------ 6 7 * Various codepaths that invoked zlib deflate/inflate assumed that these 8 functions can compress or uncompress more than 4GB data in one call on 9 platforms with 64-bit long, which has been corrected. 10 11 * "git unexecutable" reported that "unexecutable" was not found, even 12 though the actual error was that "unexecutable" was found but did 13 not have a proper she-bang line to be executed. 14 15 * "git checkout -b <branch>" was confused when attempting to create a 16 branch whose name ends with "-g" followed by hexadecimal digits, 17 and refused to work. 18 19 * "git checkout -b <branch>" sometimes wrote a bogus reflog entry, 20 causing later "git checkout -" to fail. 21 22 * "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files. 23 24 * "git fast-export" forgot to quote pathnames with unsafe characters 25 in its output. 26 27 * "git fetch" did not recurse into submodules in subdirectories. 28 29 * "git ls-tree" did not error out when asked to show a corrupt tree. 30 31 * "git pull" without any argument left an extra whitespace after the 32 command name in its reflog. 33 34 * "git rebase -i -p" incorrectly dropped commits from side branches. 35 36 * "git reset [<commit>] paths..." did not reset the index entry correctly 37 for unmerged paths. 38 39 * "git submodule add" did not allow a relative repository path when 40 the superproject did not have any default remote url. 41 42 * "git submodule foreach" failed to correctly give the standard input to 43 the user-supplied command it invoked. 44 45 * submodules that the user has never showed interest in by running 46 "git submodule init" was incorrectly marked as interesting by "git 47 submodule sync". 48 49 * "git submodule update --quiet" was not really quiet. 50 51 * "git tag -l <glob>..." did not take multiple glob patterns from the 52 command line.
