Updates since v1.7.7
--------------------
+ * Some git-svn and git-gui updates.
+
* The build procedure has been taught to take advantage of computed
dependency automatically when the complier supports it.
against $a (i.e. source side of the remote nickname).
(merge b52d00aed mz/remote-rename later to maint).
- * "git diff $tree $path" used to apply the pathspec at the output stage,
- reading the whole tree, wasting resources.
- (merge 2f88c1970 jc/diff-index-unpack later to maint).
-
* "git diff --[num]stat" used to use the number of lines of context
different from the default, potentially giving different results from
"git diff | diffstat" and confusing the users.
(merge f01cae918 jc/maint-diffstat-numstat-context later to maint).
- * The code to check for updated submodules during a "git fetch" of the
- superproject had an unnecessary quadratic loop.
- (merge 6859de45 jk/maint-fetch-submodule-check-fix later to maint).
-
- * "git fetch" from a large bundle did not enable the progress output.
- (merge be042aff jc/maint-bundle-too-quiet later to maint).
-
- * When "git fsck --lost-and-found" found that an empty blob object in the
- object store is unreachable, it incorrectly reported an error after
- writing the lost blob out successfully.
- (merge eb726f2d jc/maint-fsck-fwrite-size-check later to maint).
-
- * "git filter-branch" did not refresh the index before checking that the
- working tree was clean.
- (merge 5347a50f jk/filter-branch-require-clean-work-tree later to maint).
-
- * "git grep $tree" when run with multiple threads had an unsafe access to
- the object database that should have been protected with mutex.
- (merge 8cb5775b2 nm/grep-object-sha1-lock later to maint).
-
- * The "--ancestry-path" option to "git log" and friends misbehaved in a
- history with complex criss-cross merges and showed an uninteresting
- side history as well.
- (merge c05b988a6 bk/ancestry-path later to maint).
-
* "git merge" did not understand ":/<pattern>" as a way to name a commit.
* "git mergetool" learned to use its arguments as pathspec, not a path to
the file that may not even have any conflict.
(merge 6d9990a jm/mergetool-pathspec later to maint).
- * Tests with --valgrind failed to find "mergetool" scriptlets.
- (merge ee0d7bf92 tr/mergetool-valgrind later to maint).
-
- * "git patch-id" miscomputed the patch-id in a patch that has a line longer
- than 1kB.
- (merge b9ab810b ms/patch-id-with-overlong-line later to maint).
-
- * When an "exec" insn failed after modifying the index and/or the working
- tree during "rebase -i", we now check and warn that the changes need to
- be cleaned up.
- (merge 1686519a mm/rebase-i-exec-edit later to maint).
-
* "gitweb" used to produce a non-working link while showing the contents
of a blob, when JavaScript actions are enabled.
(merge 2b07ff3ff ps/gitweb-js-with-lineno later to maint).
