   1GIT v1.5.4.2 Release Notes
   2==========================
   3
   4Fixes since v1.5.4
   5------------------
   6
   7 * The configuration parser was not prepared to see string
   8   valued variables misspelled as boolean and segfaulted.
   9
  10 * Temporary files left behind due to interrupted object
  11   transfers were not cleaned up with "git prune".
  12
  13 * "git config --unset" was confused when the unset variables
  14   were spelled with continuation lines in the config file.
  15
  16 * The merge message detection in "git cvsimport" did not catch
  17   a message that began with "Merge...".
  18
  19 * "git status" suggests "git rm --cached" for unstaging the
  20   earlier "git add" before the initial commit.
  21
  22 * "git status" output was incorrect during a partial commit.
  23
  24 * "git bisect" refused to start when the HEAD was detached.
  25
  26 * "git bisect" allowed a wildcard character in the commit
  27   message expanded while writing its log file.
  28
  29 * Manual pages were not formatted correctly with docbook xsl
  30   1.72; added a workaround.
  31
  32 * "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in
  33   1.5.4 broke it.  This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
  34
  35 * An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a
  36   subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match
  37   correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should
  38   match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't).  This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
  39
  40 * Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when
  41   numeric color values are used.  This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
  42
  43 * http transport misbehaved when linked with curl-gnutls.
