1Git v1.7.0.1 Release Notes 2========================== 3 4Fixes since v1.7.0 5------------------ 6 7 * In a freshly created repository "rev-parse HEAD^0" complained that 8 it is dangling symref, even though "rev-parse HEAD" didn't. 9 10 * "git show :no-such-name" tried to access the index without bounds 11 check, leading to a potential segfault. 12 13 * Message from "git cherry-pick" was harder to read and use than necessary 14 when it stopped due to conflicting changes. 15 16 * We referred to ".git/refs/" throughout the documentation when we 17 meant to talk about abstract notion of "ref namespace". Because 18 people's repositories often have packed refs these days, this was 19 confusing. 20 21 * "git diff --output=/path/that/cannot/be/written" did not correctly 22 error out. 23 24 * "git grep -e -pattern-that-begin-with-dash paths..." could not be 25 spelled as "git grep -- -pattern-that-begin-with-dash paths..." which 26 would be a GNU way to use "--" as "end of options". 27 28 * "git grep" compiled with threading support tried to access an 29 uninitialized mutex on boxes with a single CPU. 30 31 * "git stash pop -q --index" failed because the unnecessary --index 32 option was propagated to "git stash drop" that is internally run at the 33 end. 34 35And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
