1GIT v1.5.4.5 Release Notes 2========================== 3 4Fixes since v1.5.4.4 5-------------------- 6 7 * You couldn't specify a custom editor whose path contains a whitespace 8 via GIT_EDITOR (and core.editor). 9 10 * The subdirectory filter to "git filter-branch" mishandled a history 11 where the subdirectory becomes empty and then later becomes non-empty. 12 13 * "git shortlog" gave an empty line if the original commit message was 14 malformed (e.g. a botched import from foreign SCM). Now it finds the 15 first non-empty line and uses it for better information. 16 17 * When the user fails to give a revision parameter to "git svn", an error 18 from the Perl interpreter was issued because the script lacked proper 19 error checking. 20 21 * After "git rebase" stopped due to conflicts, if the user played with 22 "git reset" and friends, "git rebase --abort" failed to go back to the 23 correct commit. 24 25 * Additional work trees prepared with git-new-workdir (in contrib/) did 26 not share git-svn metadata directory .git/svn with the original. 27 28 * "git-merge-recursive" did not mark addition of the same path with 29 different filemodes correctly as a conflict. 30 31 * "gitweb" gave malformed URL when pathinfo stype paths are in use. 32 33 * "-n" stands for "--no-tags" again for "git fetch". 34 35 * "git format-patch" did not detect the need to add 8-bit MIME header 36 when the user used format.header configuration. 37 38 * "rev~" revision specifier used to mean "rev", which was inconsistent 39 with how "rev^" worked. Now "rev~" is the same as "rev~1" (hence it 40 also is the same as "rev^1"), and "rev~0" is the same as "rev^0" 41 (i.e. it has to be a commit). 42 43 * "git quiltimport" did not grok empty lines, lines in "file -pNNN" 44 format to specify the prefix levels and lines with trailing comments. 45 46 * "git rebase -m" triggered pre-commit verification, which made 47 "rebase --continue" impossible. 48 49-- 50exec >/var/tmp/1 51echo O=$(git describe maint) 52O=v1.5.4.4-25-ga6f7728 53git shortlog --no-merges $O..maint
