-GIT v1.5.1.1 Release Notes (draft)
+GIT v1.5.1.1 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.5.1
- The documentation for cvsimport has been majorly improved.
+ - "git-show-ref --exclude-existing" was documented.
+
* Bugfixes
+ - The implementation of -p option in "git cvsexportcommit" had
+ the meaning of -C (context reduction) option wrong, and
+ loosened the context requirements when it was told to be
+ strict.
+
+ - "git cvsserver" did not behave like the real cvsserver when
+ client side removed a file from the working tree without
+ doing anything else on the path. In such a case, it should
+ restore it from the checked out revision.
+
+ - "git fsck" issued an alarming error message on detached
+ HEAD. It is not an error since at least 1.5.0.
+
- "git send-email" produced of References header of unbounded length;
fixed this with line-folding.
- gitweb did not show type-changing patch correctly in the
blobdiff view.
-* Performance Tweaks
+ - git-svn did not error out with incorrect command line options.
+
+ - git-svn fell into an infinite loop when insanely long commit
+ message was found.
+
+ - git-svn dcommit and rebase was confused by patches that were
+ merged from another branch that is managed by git-svn.

+ - git-svn used to get confused when globbing remote branch/tag
+ spec (e.g. "branches = proj/branches/*:refs/remotes/origin/*")
+ is used and there was a plain file that matched the glob.
