* Various git-svn updates.
+ * Updates the way content tags are handled in gitweb.
+
* Clean-up of the C part of i18n (but not l10n---please wait)
continues.
* "git blame" learned "--abbrev[=<n>]" option to control the minimum
number of hexdigits shown for commit object names.
- * "git cvsimport" learned that CVSNT stores its password file in a
- location different from the traditional CVS.
-
* "git diff -C -C" used to disable the rename detection entirely when
there are too many copy candidate paths in the tree; now it falls
back to "-C" when doing so would keep the copy candidate paths
under the rename detection limit.
+ * "git diff" and its family of commands learned --dirstat=0 to show
+ directories that contribute less than 0.1% of changes.
+
+ * "git diff" and its family of commands learned --dirstat=lines mode to
+ assess damage to the directory based on number of lines in the patch
+ output, not based on the similarity numbers.
+
* "git format-patch" learned "--quiet" option to suppress the output of
the names of generated files.
* "git merge" learned "-" as a short-hand for "the previous branch", just
like the way "git checkout -" works.
- * "git merge-one-file" learned to honor GIT_WORK_TREE settings when
- handling "both sides added, differently" conflict.
+ * "git rebase" that does not specify on top of which branch to rebase
+ the current branch now uses @{upstream} of the current branch.
* "git rev-list --count" used with "--cherry-mark" counts the cherry-picked
commits separately, producing more a useful output.
the tarball generation; snapshot from the same tree should result in
a same tarball.
- * "git-p4" (in contrib) learned to merge a file that was added on both
- branches differently by using 2-way merge.
-
Also contains various documentation updates and minor miscellaneous
changes.
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.5.X maintenance track are
included in this release.
- * "git config" used to choke with an insanely long line.
- (merge ef/maint-strbuf-init later)
+ * "git add -p" did not work correctly when a hunk is split and then
+ one of them was given to the editor.
+ (merge jc/maint-add-p-overlapping-hunks later)
- * "git diff-files" did not show the mode information from the working
- tree side of an unmerged path correctly.
- (merge jc/fix-diff-files-unmerged later)
+ * "git add -u" did not resolve a conflict where our history deleted and
+ their history modified the same file, and the working tree resolved to
+ keep a file.
+ (merge jc/fix-add-u-unmerged later)
- * "git diff -M --cached" used to use unmerged path as a possible rename
- source candidate, which made no sense.
- (merge mz/maint-rename-unmerged later)
-
- * "git format-patch" when run with "--quiet" option used to produce a
- nonsense result that consists of alternating empty output.
- (merge early part of cn/format-patch-quiet later)
-
- * "git format-patch" did not quote RFC822 special characters in the
- email address (e.g From: Junio C. Hamano <jch@example.com>, not
- From: "Junio C. Hamano" <jch@example.com>).
- (merge jk/format-patch-quote-special-in-from later)
-
- * "git mergetool" did not handle conflicted submoudules gracefully.
- (merge jm/mergetool-submodules later)
-
- * "git rebase -i -p" failed to preserve the history when there is a
- redundant merge created with the --no-ff option.
- (merge aw/maint-rebase-i-p-no-ff later)
+ * "git config" used to choke with an insanely long line.
+ (merge ef/maint-strbuf-init later)
- * "git stash -p --no-keep-index" and "git stash --no-keep-index -p" now
- mean the same thing.
- (merge dm/stash-k-i-p later)
+ * In "git merge", per-branch branch.<name>.mergeoptions configuration
+ variables did not override the fallback default merge.<option>
+ configuration variables such as merge.ff, merge.log, etc.
+ (merge jc/maint-branch-mergeoptions later)
- * "git upload-pack" (hence "git push" over git native protocol) had a
- subtle race condition that could lead to a deadlock.
- (merge jk/maint-upload-pack-shallow later)
+ * "git send-pack" (hence "git push") over smalt-HTTP protocol could
+ deadlock when the client side pack-object died early.
+ (merge js/maint-send-pack-stateless-rpc-deadlock-fix later)
