* "git rebase -i" now honors the pre-rebase hook, just like the
other rebase implementations "git rebase" and "git rebase -m".
+* "git rebase -i" incorrectly aborted when there is no commit to replay.
+
* Behaviour of "git diff --quiet" was inconsistent with "diff --exit-code"
with the output redirected to /dev/null.
* "git diff --no-index" on binary files no longer outputs a bogus
"diff --git" header line.
+* "git diff" hunk header patterns with multiple elements separated by LF
+ were not used correctly.
+
* Hunk headers in "git diff" default to using extended regular
expressions, fixing some of the internal patterns on non-GNU
platforms.
* New config "diff.*.xfuncname" exposes extended regular expressions
for user specified hunk header patterns.
+* "git gc" when ejecting otherwise unreachable objects from packfiles into
+ loose form leaked memory.
+
+* "git index-pack" was recently broken and mishandled objects added by
+ thin-pack completion processing under memory pressure.
+
+* "git index-pack" was recently broken and misbehaved when run from inside
+ .git/objects/pack/ directory.
+
* "git stash apply sash@{1}" was fixed to error out. Prior versions
would have applied stash@{0} incorrectly.
* "git remote show -v" now displays all URLs of a remote.
+* "git checkout -b branch" was confused when branch already existed.
+
* "git checkout -q" once again suppresses the locally modified file list.
* "git clone -q", "git fetch -q" asks remote side to not send
* "git merge" once again removes directories after the last file has
been removed from it during the merge.
+* "git merge" did not allocate enough memory for the structure itself when
+ enumerating the parents of the resulting commit.
+
* "git blame -C -C" no longer segfaults while trying to pass blame if
it encounters a submodule reference.
+* "git rm" incorrectly claimed that you have local modifications when a
+ path was merely stat-dirty.
+
* "git svn" fixed to display an error message when 'set-tree' failed,
instead of a Perl compile error.
* The "git commit" error message when there are still unmerged
files present was clarified to match "git write-tree".
+* "git init" was confused when core.bare or core.sharedRepository are set
+ in system or user global configuration file by mistake. When --bare or
+ --shared is given from the command line, these now override such
+ settings made outside the repositories.
+
* Some segfaults due to uncaught NULL pointers were fixed in multiple
tools such as apply, reset, update-index.
-* Solaris builds now default to OLD_ICONV=1 to avoid compile warnings.
+* Solaris builds now default to OLD_ICONV=1 to avoid compile warnings;
+ Solaris 8 does not define NEEDS_LIBICONV by default.
* "Git.pm" tests relied on unnecessarily more recent version of Perl.
("git fetch") is still however supported.
Many other documentation updates.
