1Git 1.8.1.3 Release Notes 2========================= 3 4Fixes since v1.8.1.2 5-------------------- 6 7 * The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be 8 applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the 9 exclude mechanism does. The fix for this in 1.8.1.2 had 10 performance degradations. 11 12 * Command line completion code was inadvertently made incompatible with 13 older versions of bash by using a newer array notation. 14 15 * We used to stuff "user@" and then append what we read from 16 /etc/mailname to come up with a default e-mail ident, but a bug 17 lost the "user@" part. 18 19 * "git am" did not parse datestamp correctly from Hg generated patch, 20 when it is run in a locale outside C (or en). 21 22 * Attempt to "branch --edit-description" an existing branch, while 23 being on a detached HEAD, errored out. 24 25 * "git rebase --preserve-merges" lost empty merges in recent versions 26 of Git. 27 28Also contains various documentation fixes.
