   1Git v1.7.11.4 Release Notes
   2===========================
   3
   4Fixes since v1.7.11.3
   5---------------------
   6
   7 * "$GIT_DIR/COMMIT_EDITMSG" file that is used to hold the commit log
   8   message user edits was not documented.
   9
  10 * The advise() function did not use varargs correctly to format
  11   its message.
  12
  13 * When "git am" failed, old timers knew to check .git/rebase-apply/patch
  14   to see what went wrong, but we never told the users about it.
  15
  16 * "git commit-tree" learned a more natural "-p <parent> <tree>" order
  17   of arguments long time ago, but recently forgot it by mistake.
  18
  19 * "git diff --no-ext-diff" did not output anything for a typechange
  20   filepair when GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is in effect.
  21
  22 * In 1.7.9 era, we taught "git rebase" about the raw timestamp format
  23   but we did not teach the same trick to "filter-branch", which rolled
  24   a similar logic on its own.
  25
  26 * When "git submodule add" clones a submodule repository, it can get
  27   confused where to store the resulting submodule repository in the
  28   superproject's .git/ directory when there is a symbolic link in the
  29   path to the current directory.
  30
  31Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates.
