1GIT v1.6.2.2 Release Notes 2========================== 3 4Fixes since v1.6.2.1 5-------------------- 6 7* A longstanding confusing description of what --pickaxe option of 8 git-diff does has been clarified in the documentation. 9 10* "git-blame -S" did not quite work near the commits that were given 11 on the command line correctly. 12 13* "git diff --pickaxe-regexp" did not count overlapping matches 14 correctly. 15 16* "git diff" did not feed files in work-tree representation to external 17 diff and textconv. 18 19* "git-fetch" in a repository that was not cloned from anywhere said 20 it cannot find 'origin', which was hard to understand for new people. 21 22* "git-format-patch --numbered-files --stdout" did not have to die of 23 incompatible options; it now simply ignores --numbered-files as no files 24 are produced anyway. 25 26* "git-ls-files --deleted" did not work well with GIT_DIR&GIT_WORK_TREE. 27 28* "git-read-tree A B C..." without -m option has been broken for a long 29 time. 30 31* git-send-email ignored --in-reply-to when --no-thread was given. 32 33* 'git-submodule add' did not tolerate extra slashes and ./ in the path it 34 accepted from the command line; it now is more lenient. 35 36* git-svn misbehaved when the project contained a path that began with 37 two dashes. 38 39* import-zips script (in contrib) did not compute the common directory 40 prefix correctly. 41 42* miscompilation of negated enum constants by old gcc (2.9) affected the 43 codepaths to spawn subprocesses. 44 45Many small documentation updates are included as well.
