-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.0
-------------------
-
-* Documentation updates
-
- - Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.
-
- - The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.
-
- - Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.
-
- - Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
- documents to git-add/git-rm.
-
- - Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
- described as core.*; fixed.
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
- executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
- bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
- file.
-
- - git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
- that it won't be leaked into the children.
-
- - segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
- parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
- instead.
-
- - git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
- that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.
-
-* Tweaks
-
- - sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
- packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
- reverse order. This has been made more efficient.

-GIT v1.5.0.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.0.1
---------------------
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
- links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
- strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
- in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
- merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
- that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
- problems have been fixed.
-
- - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
- diff across three trees.
-
- - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
-
- - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
- but segfaulted.
-
- - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
- slashes after a/ and b/.
-
- - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
- message had too long line at the beginning.
-
- - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
- running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
- was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
- installing as root (especially problematic when the source
- directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
-
- - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
- sorted next to each other.
-
- - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
- there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
- symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
- now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
-
- - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
- internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
- impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
- in the repository.
-
- - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
- merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
- when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
- read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
- file the symbolic link pointed at.
-
- - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.
-
-* Documentation updates
-
- - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
-
- - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
-
-
-* Assorted git-gui fixes.

-GIT v1.5.0 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Old news
---------
-
-This section is for people who are upgrading from ancient
-versions of git. Although all of the changes in this section
-happened before the current v1.4.4 release, they are summarized
-here in the v1.5.0 release notes for people who skipped earlier
-versions.
-
-As of git v1.5.0 there are some optional features that changes
-the repository to allow data to be stored and transferred more
-efficiently. These features are not enabled by default, as they
-will make the repository unusable with older versions of git.
-Specifically, the available options are:
-
- - There is a configuration variable core.legacyheaders that
- changes the format of loose objects so that they are more
- efficient to pack and to send out of the repository over git
- native protocol, since v1.4.2. However, loose objects
- written in the new format cannot be read by git older than
- that version; people fetching from your repository using
- older clients over dumb transports (e.g. http) using older
- versions of git will also be affected.
-
- To let git use the new loose object format, you have to
- set core.legacyheaders to false.
-
- - Since v1.4.3, configuration repack.usedeltabaseoffset allows
- packfile to be created in more space efficient format, which
- cannot be read by git older than that version.
-
- To let git use the new format for packfiles, you have to
- set repack.usedeltabaseoffset to true.
-
-The above two new features are not enabled by default and you
-have to explicitly ask for them, because they make repositories
-unreadable by older versions of git, and in v1.5.0 we still do
-not enable them by default for the same reason. We will change
-this default probably 1 year after 1.4.2's release, when it is
-reasonable to expect everybody to have new enough version of
-git.
-
- - 'git pack-refs' appeared in v1.4.4; this command allows tags
- to be accessed much more efficiently than the traditional
- 'one-file-per-tag' format. Older git-native clients can
- still fetch from a repository that packed and pruned refs
- (the server side needs to run the up-to-date version of git),
- but older dumb transports cannot. Packing of refs is done by
- an explicit user action, either by use of "git pack-refs
- --prune" command or by use of "git gc" command.
-
- - 'git -p' to paginate anything -- many commands do pagination
- by default on a tty. Introduced between v1.4.1 and v1.4.2;
- this may surprise old timers.
-
- - 'git archive' superseded 'git tar-tree' in v1.4.3;
-
- - 'git cvsserver' was new invention in v1.3.0;
-
- - 'git repo-config', 'git grep', 'git rebase' and 'gitk' were
- seriously enhanced during v1.4.0 timeperiod.
-
- - 'gitweb' became part of git.git during v1.4.0 timeperiod and
- seriously modified since then.
-
- - reflog is an v1.4.0 invention. This allows you to name a
- revision that a branch used to be at (e.g. "git diff
- master@{yesterday} master" allows you to see changes since
- yesterday's tip of the branch).
-
-
-Updates in v1.5.0 since v1.4.4 series
--------------------------------------
-
-* Index manipulation
-
- - git-add is to add contents to the index (aka "staging area"
- for the next commit), whether the file the contents happen to
- be is an existing one or a newly created one.
-
- - git-add without any argument does not add everything
- anymore. Use 'git-add .' instead. Also you can add
- otherwise ignored files with an -f option.
-
- - git-add tries to be more friendly to users by offering an
- interactive mode ("git-add -i").
-
- - git-commit <path> used to refuse to commit if <path> was
- different between HEAD and the index (i.e. update-index was
- used on it earlier). This check was removed.
-
- - git-rm is much saner and safer. It is used to remove paths
- from both the index file and the working tree, and makes sure
- you are not losing any local modification before doing so.
-
- - git-reset <tree> <paths>... can be used to revert index
- entries for selected paths.
-
- - git-update-index is much less visible. Many suggestions to
- use the command in git output and documentation have now been
- replaced by simpler commands such as "git add" or "git rm".
-
-
-* Repository layout and objects transfer
-
- - The data for origin repository is stored in the configuration
- file $GIT_DIR/config, not in $GIT_DIR/remotes/, for newly
- created clones. The latter is still supported and there is
- no need to convert your existing repository if you are
- already comfortable with your workflow with the layout.
-
- - git-clone always uses what is known as "separate remote"
- layout for a newly created repository with a working tree.
-
- A repository with the separate remote layout starts with only
- one default branch, 'master', to be used for your own
- development. Unlike the traditional layout that copied all
- the upstream branches into your branch namespace (while
- renaming their 'master' to your 'origin'), the new layout
- puts upstream branches into local "remote-tracking branches"
- with their own namespace. These can be referenced with names
- such as "origin/$upstream_branch_name" and are stored in
- .git/refs/remotes rather than .git/refs/heads where normal
- branches are stored.
-
- This layout keeps your own branch namespace less cluttered,
- avoids name collision with your upstream, makes it possible
- to automatically track new branches created at the remote
- after you clone from it, and makes it easier to interact with
- more than one remote repository (you can use "git remote" to
- add other repositories to track). There might be some
- surprises:
-
- * 'git branch' does not show the remote tracking branches.
- It only lists your own branches. Use '-r' option to view
- the tracking branches.
-
- * If you are forking off of a branch obtained from the
- upstream, you would have done something like 'git branch
- my-next next', because traditional layout dropped the
- tracking branch 'next' into your own branch namespace.
- With the separate remote layout, you say 'git branch next
- origin/next', which allows you to use the matching name
- 'next' for your own branch. It also allows you to track a
- remote other than 'origin' (i.e. where you initially cloned
- from) and fork off of a branch from there the same way
- (e.g. "git branch mingw j6t/master").
-
- Repositories initialized with the traditional layout continue
- to work.
-
- - New branches that appear on the origin side after a clone is
- made are also tracked automatically. This is done with an
- wildcard refspec "refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*", which
- older git does not understand, so if you clone with 1.5.0,
- you would need to downgrade remote.*.fetch in the
- configuration file to specify each branch you are interested
- in individually if you plan to fetch into the repository with
- older versions of git (but why would you?).
-
- - Similarly, wildcard refspec "refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/me/*"
- can be given to "git-push" command to update the tracking
- branches that is used to track the repository you are pushing
- from on the remote side.
-
- - git-branch and git-show-branch know remote tracking branches
- (use the command line switch "-r" to list only tracked branches).
-
- - git-push can now be used to delete a remote branch or a tag.
- This requires the updated git on the remote side (use "git
- push <remote> :refs/heads/<branch>" to delete "branch").
-
- - git-push more aggressively keeps the transferred objects
- packed. Earlier we recommended to monitor amount of loose
- objects and repack regularly, but you should repack when you
- accumulated too many small packs this way as well. Updated
- git-count-objects helps you with this.
-
- - git-fetch also more aggressively keeps the transferred objects
- packed. This behavior of git-push and git-fetch can be
- tweaked with a single configuration transfer.unpacklimit (but
- usually there should not be any need for a user to tweak it).
-
- - A new command, git-remote, can help you manage your remote
- tracking branch definitions.
-
- - You may need to specify explicit paths for upload-pack and/or
- receive-pack due to your ssh daemon configuration on the
- other end. This can now be done via remote.*.uploadpack and
- remote.*.receivepack configuration.
-
-
-* Bare repositories
-
- - Certain commands change their behavior in a bare repository
- (i.e. a repository without associated working tree). We use
- a fairly conservative heuristic (if $GIT_DIR is ".git", or
- ends with "/.git", the repository is not bare) to decide if a
- repository is bare, but "core.bare" configuration variable
- can be used to override the heuristic when it misidentifies
- your repository.
-
- - git-fetch used to complain updating the current branch but
- this is now allowed for a bare repository. So is the use of
- 'git-branch -f' to update the current branch.
-
- - Porcelain-ish commands that require a working tree refuses to
- work in a bare repository.
-
-
-* Reflog
-
- - Reflog records the history from the view point of the local
- repository. In other words, regardless of the real history,
- the reflog shows the history as seen by one particular
- repository (this enables you to ask "what was the current
- revision in _this_ repository, yesterday at 1pm?"). This
- facility is enabled by default for repositories with working
- trees, and can be accessed with the "branch@{time}" and
- "branch@{Nth}" notation.
-
- - "git show-branch" learned showing the reflog data with the
- new -g option. "git log" has -g option to view reflog
- entries in a more verbose manner.
-
- - git-branch knows how to rename branches and moves existing
- reflog data from the old branch to the new one.
-
- - In addition to the reflog support in v1.4.4 series, HEAD
- reference maintains its own log. "HEAD@{5.minutes.ago}"
- means the commit you were at 5 minutes ago, which takes
- branch switching into account. If you want to know where the
- tip of your current branch was at 5 minutes ago, you need to
- explicitly say its name (e.g. "master@{5.minutes.ago}") or
- omit the refname altogether i.e. "@{5.minutes.ago}".
-
- - The commits referred to by reflog entries are now protected
- against pruning. The new command "git reflog expire" can be
- used to truncate older reflog entries and entries that refer
- to commits that have been pruned away previously with older
- versions of git.
-
- Existing repositories that have been using reflog may get
- complaints from fsck-objects and may not be able to run
- git-repack, if you had run git-prune from older git; please
- run "git reflog expire --stale-fix --all" first to remove
- reflog entries that refer to commits that are no longer in
- the repository when that happens.
-
-
-* Crufts removal
-
- - We used to say "old commits are retrievable using reflog and
- 'master@{yesterday}' syntax as long as you haven't run
- git-prune". We no longer have to say the latter half of the
- above sentence, as git-prune does not remove things reachable
- from reflog entries.
-
- - There is a toplevel garbage collector script, 'git-gc', that
- runs periodic cleanup functions, including 'git-repack -a -d',
- 'git-reflog expire', 'git-pack-refs --prune', and 'git-rerere
- gc'.
-
- - The output from fsck ("fsck-objects" is called just "fsck"
- now, but the old name continues to work) was needlessly
- alarming in that it warned missing objects that are reachable
- only from dangling objects. This has been corrected and the
- output is much more useful.
-
-
-* Detached HEAD
-
- - You can use 'git-checkout' to check out an arbitrary revision
- or a tag as well, instead of named branches. This will
- dissociate your HEAD from the branch you are currently on.
-
- A typical use of this feature is to "look around". E.g.
-
- $ git checkout v2.6.16
- ... compile, test, etc.
- $ git checkout v2.6.17
- ... compile, test, etc.
-
- - After detaching your HEAD, you can go back to an existing
- branch with usual "git checkout $branch". Also you can
- start a new branch using "git checkout -b $newbranch" to
- start a new branch at that commit.
-
- - You can even pull from other repositories, make merges and
- commits while your HEAD is detached. Also you can use "git
- reset" to jump to arbitrary commit, while still keeping your
- HEAD detached.
-
- Remember that a detached state is volatile, i.e. it will be forgotten
- as soon as you move away from it with the checkout or reset command,
- unless a branch is created from it as mentioned above. It is also
- possible to rescue a lost detached state from the HEAD reflog.
-
-
-* Packed refs
-
- - Repositories with hundreds of tags have been paying large
- overhead, both in storage and in runtime, due to the
- traditional one-ref-per-file format. A new command,
- git-pack-refs, can be used to "pack" them in more efficient
- representation (you can let git-gc do this for you).
-
- - Clones and fetches over dumb transports are now aware of
- packed refs and can download from repositories that use
- them.
-
-
-* Configuration
-
- - configuration related to color setting are consolidated under
- color.* namespace (older diff.color.*, status.color.* are
- still supported).
-
- - 'git-repo-config' command is accessible as 'git-config' now.
-
-
-* Updated features
-
- - git-describe uses better criteria to pick a base ref. It
- used to pick the one with the newest timestamp, but now it
- picks the one that is topologically the closest (that is,
- among ancestors of commit C, the ref T that has the shortest
- output from "git-rev-list T..C" is chosen).
-
- - git-describe gives the number of commits since the base ref
- between the refname and the hash suffix. E.g. the commit one
- before v2.6.20-rc6 in the kernel repository is:
-
- v2.6.20-rc5-306-ga21b069
-
- which tells you that its object name begins with a21b069,
- v2.6.20-rc5 is an ancestor of it (meaning, the commit
- contains everything -rc5 has), and there are 306 commits
- since v2.6.20-rc5.
-
- - git-describe with --abbrev=0 can be used to show only the
- name of the base ref.
-
- - git-blame learned a new option, --incremental, that tells it
- to output the blames as they are assigned. A sample script
- to use it is also included as contrib/blameview.
-
- - git-blame starts annotating from the working tree by default.
-
-
-* Less external dependency
-
- - We no longer require the "merge" program from the RCS suite.
- All 3-way file-level merges are now done internally.
-
- - The original implementation of git-merge-recursive which was
- in Python has been removed; we have a C implementation of it
- now.
-
- - git-shortlog is no longer a Perl script. It no longer
- requires output piped from git-log; it can accept revision
- parameters directly on the command line.
-
-
-* I18n
-
- - We have always encouraged the commit message to be encoded in
- UTF-8, but the users are allowed to use legacy encoding as
- appropriate for their projects. This will continue to be the
- case. However, a non UTF-8 commit encoding _must_ be
- explicitly set with i18n.commitencoding in the repository
- where a commit is made; otherwise git-commit-tree will
- complain if the log message does not look like a valid UTF-8
- string.
-
- - The value of i18n.commitencoding in the originating
- repository is recorded in the commit object on the "encoding"
- header, if it is not UTF-8. git-log and friends notice this,
- and reencodes the message to the log output encoding when
- displaying, if they are different. The log output encoding
- is determined by "git log --encoding=<encoding>",
- i18n.logoutputencoding configuration, or i18n.commitencoding
- configuration, in the decreasing order of preference, and
- defaults to UTF-8.
-
- - Tools for e-mailed patch application now default to -u
- behavior; i.e. it always re-codes from the e-mailed encoding
- to the encoding specified with i18n.commitencoding. This
- unfortunately forces projects that have happily been using a
- legacy encoding without setting i18n.commitencoding to set
- the configuration, but taken with other improvement, please
- excuse us for this very minor one-time inconvenience.
-
-
-* e-mailed patches
-
- - See the above I18n section.
-
- - git-format-patch now enables --binary without being asked.
- git-am does _not_ default to it, as sending binary patch via
- e-mail is unusual and is harder to review than textual
- patches and it is prudent to require the person who is
- applying the patch to explicitly ask for it.
-
- - The default suffix for git-format-patch output is now ".patch",
- not ".txt". This can be changed with --suffix=.txt option,
- or setting the config variable "format.suffix" to ".txt".
-
-
-* Foreign SCM interfaces
-
- - git-svn now requires the Perl SVN:: libraries, the
- command-line backend was too slow and limited.
-
- - the 'commit' subcommand of git-svn has been renamed to
- 'set-tree', and 'dcommit' is the recommended replacement for
- day-to-day work.
-
- - git fast-import backend.
-
-
-* User support
-
- - Quite a lot of documentation updates.
-
- - Bash completion scripts have been updated heavily.
-
- - Better error messages for often used Porcelainish commands.
-
- - Git GUI. This is a simple Tk based graphical interface for
- common Git operations.
-
-
-* Sliding mmap
-
- - We used to assume that we can mmap the whole packfile while
- in use, but with a large project this consumes huge virtual
- memory space and truly huge ones would not fit in the
- userland address space on 32-bit platforms. We now mmap huge
- packfile in pieces to avoid this problem.
-
-
-* Shallow clones
-
- - There is a partial support for 'shallow' repositories that
- keeps only recent history. A 'shallow clone' is created by
- specifying how deep that truncated history should be
- (e.g. "git clone --depth 5 git://some.where/repo.git").
-
- Currently a shallow repository has number of limitations:
-
- - Cloning and fetching _from_ a shallow clone are not
- supported (nor tested -- so they might work by accident but
- they are not expected to).
-
- - Pushing from nor into a shallow clone are not expected to
- work.
-
- - Merging inside a shallow repository would work as long as a
- merge base is found in the recent history, but otherwise it
- will be like merging unrelated histories and may result in
- huge conflicts.
-
- but this would be more than adequate for people who want to
- look at near the tip of a big project with a deep history and
- send patches in e-mail format.

-GIT v1.5.1.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.1
-------------------
-
-* Documentation updates
-
- - The --left-right option of rev-list and friends is documented.
-
- - 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.
-
- - "git archive" to download from remote site should not
- require you to be in a git repository, but it incorrectly
- did.
-
- - "git apply" ignored -p<n> for "diff --git" formatted
- patches.
-
- - "git rerere" recorded a conflict that had one side empty
- (the other side adds) incorrectly; this made merging in the
- other direction fail to use previously recorded resolution.
-
- - t4200 test was broken where "wc -l" pads its output with
- spaces.
-
- - "git branch -m old new" to rename branch did not work
- without a configuration file in ".git/config".
-
- - The sample hook for notification e-mail was misnamed.
-
- - gitweb did not show type-changing patch correctly in the
- blobdiff view.
-
- - 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.

-GIT v1.5.1.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.1.1
---------------------
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - "git clone" over http from a repository that has lost the
- loose refs by running "git pack-refs" were broken (a code to
- deal with this was added to "git fetch" in v1.5.0, but it
- was missing from "git clone").
-
- - "git diff a/ b/" incorrectly fell in "diff between two
- filesystem objects" codepath, when the user most likely
- wanted to limit the extent of output to two tracked
- directories.
-
- - git-quiltimport had the same bug as we fixed for
- git-applymbox in v1.5.1.1 -- it gave an alarming "did not
- have any patch" message (but did not actually fail and was
- harmless).
-
- - various git-svn fixes.
-
- - Sample update hook incorrectly always refused requests to
- delete branches through push.
-
- - git-blame on a very long working tree path had buffer
- overrun problem.
-
- - git-apply did not like to be fed two patches in a row that created
- and then modified the same file.
-
- - git-svn was confused when a non-project was stored directly under
- trunk/, branches/ and tags/.
-
- - git-svn wants the Error.pm module that was at least as new
- as what we ship as part of git; install ours in our private
- installation location if the one on the system is older.
-
- - An earlier update to command line integer parameter parser was
- botched and made 'update-index --cacheinfo' completely useless.
-
-
-* Documentation updates
-
- - Various documentation updates from J. Bruce Fields, Frank
- Lichtenheld, Alex Riesen and others. Andrew Ruder started a
- war on undocumented options.

-GIT v1.5.1.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.1.2
---------------------
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - git-add tried to optimize by finding common leading
- directories across its arguments but botched, causing very
- confused behaviour.
-
- - unofficial rpm.spec file shipped with git was letting
- ETC_GITCONFIG set to /usr/etc/gitconfig. Tweak the official
- Makefile to make it harder for distro people to make the
- same mistake, by setting the variable to /etc/gitconfig if
- prefix is set to /usr.
-
- - git-svn inconsistently stripped away username from the URL
- only when svnsync_props was in use.
-
- - git-svn got confused when handling symlinks on Mac OS.
-
- - git-send-email was not quoting recipient names that have
- period '.' in them. Also it did not allow overriding
- envelope sender, which made it impossible to send patches to
- certain subscriber-only lists.
-
- - built-in write_tree() routine had a sequence that renamed a
- file that is still open, which some systems did not like.
-
- - when memory is very tight, sliding mmap code to read
- packfiles incorrectly closed the fd that was still being
- used to read the pack.
-
- - import-tars contributed front-end for fastimport was passing
- wrong directory modes without checking.
-
- - git-fastimport trusted its input too much and allowed to
- create corrupt tree objects with entries without a name.
-
- - git-fetch needlessly barfed when too long reflog action
- description was given by the caller.
-
-Also contains various documentation updates.

-GIT v1.5.1.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.1.3
---------------------
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - "git-http-fetch" did not work around a bug in libcurl
- earlier than 7.16 (curl_multi_remove_handle() was broken).
-
- - "git cvsserver" handles a file that was once removed and
- then added again correctly.
-
- - import-tars script (in contrib/) handles GNU tar archives
- that contain pathnames longer than 100 bytes (long-link
- extension) correctly.
-
- - xdelta test program did not build correctly.
-
- - gitweb sometimes tried incorrectly to apply function to
- decode utf8 twice, resulting in corrupt output.

-
- - "git log/rev-list --boundary" did not produce output
- correctly without --left-right option.

-GIT v1.5.1 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Updates since v1.5.0
---------------------
-
-* Deprecated commands and options.
-
- - git-diff-stages and git-resolve have been removed.
-
-* New commands and options.
-
- - "git log" and friends take --reverse, which instructs them
- to give their output in the order opposite from their usual.
- They typically output from new to old, but with this option
- their output would read from old to new. "git shortlog"
- usually lists older commits first, but with this option,
- they are shown from new to old.
-
- - "git log --pretty=format:<string>" to allow more flexible
- custom log output.
-
- - "git diff" learned --ignore-space-at-eol. This is a weaker
- form of --ignore-space-change.
-
- - "git diff --no-index pathA pathB" can be used as diff
- replacement with git specific enhancements.
-
- - "git diff --no-index" can read from '-' (standard input).
-
- - "git diff" also learned --exit-code to exit with non-zero
- status when it found differences. In the future we might
- want to make this the default but that would be a rather big
- backward incompatible change; it will stay as an option for
- now.
-
- - "git diff --quiet" is --exit-code with output turned off,
- meant for scripted use to quickly determine if there is any
- tree-level difference.
-
- - Textual patch generation with "git diff" without -w/-b
- option has been significantly optimized. "git blame" got
- faster because of the same change.
-
- - "git log" and "git rev-list" has been optimized
- significantly when they are used with pathspecs.
-
- - "git branch --track" can be used to set up configuration
- variables to help it easier to base your work on branches
- you track from a remote site.
-
- - "git format-patch --attach" now emits attachments. Use
- --inline to get an inlined multipart/mixed.
-
- - "git name-rev" learned --refs=<pattern>, to limit the tags
- used for naming the given revisions only to the ones
- matching the given pattern.
-
- - "git remote update" is to run "git fetch" for defined remotes
- to update tracking branches.
-
- - "git cvsimport" can now take '-d' to talk with a CVS
- repository different from what are recorded in CVS/Root
- (overriding it with environment CVSROOT does not work).
-
- - "git bundle" can help sneaker-netting your changes between
- repositories.
-
- - "git mergetool" can help 3-way file-level conflict
- resolution with your favorite graphical merge tools.
-
- - A new configuration "core.symlinks" can be used to disable
- symlinks on filesystems that do not support them; they are
- checked out as regular files instead.
-
- - You can name a commit object with its first line of the
- message. The syntax to use is ':/message text'. E.g.
-
- $ git show ":/object name: introduce ':/<oneline prefix>' notation"
-
- means the same thing as:
-
- $ git show 28a4d940443806412effa246ecc7768a21553ec7
-
- - "git bisect" learned a new command "run" that takes a script
- to run after each revision is checked out to determine if it
- is good or bad, to automate the bisection process.
-
- - "git log" family learned a new traversal option --first-parent,
- which does what the name suggests.
-
-
-* Updated behavior of existing commands.
-
- - "git-merge-recursive" used to barf when there are more than
- one common ancestors for the merge, and merging them had a
- rename/rename conflict. This has been fixed.
-
- - "git fsck" does not barf on corrupt loose objects.
-
- - "git rm" does not remove newly added files without -f.
-
- - "git archimport" allows remapping when coming up with git
- branch names from arch names.
-
- - git-svn got almost a rewrite.
-
- - core.autocrlf configuration, when set to 'true', makes git
- to convert CRLF at the end of lines in text files to LF when
- reading from the filesystem, and convert in reverse when
- writing to the filesystem. The variable can be set to
- 'input', in which case the conversion happens only while
- reading from the filesystem but files are written out with
- LF at the end of lines. Currently, which paths to consider
- 'text' (i.e. be subjected to the autocrlf mechanism) is
- decided purely based on the contents, but the plan is to
- allow users to explicitly override this heuristic based on
- paths.
-
- - The behavior of 'git-apply', when run in a subdirectory,
- without --index nor --cached were inconsistent with that of
- the command with these options. This was fixed to match the
- behavior with --index. A patch that is meant to be applied
- with -p1 from the toplevel of the project tree can be
- applied with any custom -p<n> option. A patch that is not
- relative to the toplevel needs to be applied with -p<n>
- option with or without --index (or --cached).
-
- - "git diff" outputs a trailing HT when pathnames have embedded
- SP on +++/--- header lines, in order to help "GNU patch" to
- parse its output. "git apply" was already updated to accept
- this modified output format since ce74618d (Sep 22, 2006).
-
- - "git cvsserver" runs hooks/update and honors its exit status.
-
- - "git cvsserver" can be told to send everything with -kb.
-
- - "git diff --check" also honors the --color output option.
-
- - "git name-rev" used to stress the fact that a ref is a tag too
- much, by saying something like "v1.2.3^0~22". It now says
- "v1.2.3~22" in such a case (it still says "v1.2.3^0" if it does
- not talk about an ancestor of the commit that is tagged, which
- makes sense).
-
- - "git rev-list --boundary" now shows boundary markers for the
- commits omitted by --max-age and --max-count condition.
-
- - The configuration mechanism now reads $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig.
-
- - "git apply --verbose" shows what preimage lines were wanted
- when it couldn't find them.
-
- - "git status" in a read-only repository got a bit saner.
-
- - "git fetch" (hence "git clone" and "git pull") are less
- noisy when the output does not go to tty.
-
- - "git fetch" between repositories with many refs were slow
- even when there are not many changes that needed
- transferring. This has been sped up by partially rewriting
- the heaviest parts in C.
-
- - "git mailinfo" which splits an e-mail into a patch and the
- meta-information was rewritten, thanks to Don Zickus. It
- handles nested multipart better. The command was broken for
- a brief period on 'master' branch since 1.5.0 but the
- breakage is fixed now.
-
- - send-email learned configurable bcc and chain-reply-to.
-
- - "git remote show $remote" also talks about branches that
- would be pushed if you run "git push remote".
-
- - Using objects from packs is now seriously optimized by clever
- use of a cache. This should be most noticeable in git-log
- family of commands that involve reading many tree objects.
- In addition, traversing revisions while filtering changes
- with pathspecs is made faster by terminating the comparison
- between the trees as early as possible.
-
-
-* Hooks
-
- - The part to send out notification e-mails was removed from
- the sample update hook, as it was not an appropriate place
- to do so. The proper place to do this is the new post-receive
- hook. An example hook has been added to contrib/hooks/.
-
-
-* Others
-
- - git-revert, git-gc and git-cherry-pick are now built-ins.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.0
-------------------
-
-These are all in v1.5.0.x series.
-
-* Documentation updates
-
- - Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.
-
- - The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.
-
- - Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.
-
- - Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
- documents to git-add/git-rm.
-
- - Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
- described as core.*; fixed.
-
- - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
-
- - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
-
- - user-manual updates.
-
- - Options to 'git remote add' were described insufficiently.
-
- - Configuration format.suffix was not documented.
-
- - Other formatting and spelling fixes.
-
- - user-manual has better cross references.
-
- - gitweb installation/deployment procedure is now documented.
-
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - git-upload-pack closes unused pipe ends; earlier this caused
- many zombies to hang around.
-
- - git-rerere was recording the contents of earlier hunks
- duplicated in later hunks. This prevented resolving the same
- conflict when performing the same merge the other way around.
-
- - git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
- executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
- bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
- file.
-
- - git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
- that it won't be leaked into the children.
-
- - segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
- parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
- instead.
-
- - git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
- that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.
-
- - Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
- links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
- strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
- in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
- merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
- that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
- problems have been fixed.
-
- - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
- diff across three trees.
-
- - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
-
- - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
- but segfaulted.
-
- - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
- slashes after a/ and b/.
-
- - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
- message had too long line at the beginning.
-
- - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
- running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
- was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
- installing as root (especially problematic when the source
- directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
-
- - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
- sorted next to each other.
-
- - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
- there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
- symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
- now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
-
- - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
- internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
- impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
- in the repository.
-
- - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
- merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
- when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
- read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
- file the symbolic link pointed at.
-
- - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.
-
- - 'git.el' honors the commit coding system from the configuration.
-
- - 'blameview' in contrib/ correctly digs deeper when a line is
- clicked.
-
- - 'http-push' correctly makes sure the remote side has leading
- path. Earlier it started in the middle of the path, and
- incorrectly.
-
- - 'git-merge' did not exit with non-zero status when the
- working tree was dirty and cannot fast forward. It does
- now.
-
- - 'cvsexportcommit' does not lose yet-to-be-used message file.
-
- - int-vs-size_t typefix when running combined diff on files
- over 2GB long.
-
- - 'git apply --whitespace=strip' should not touch unmodified
- lines.
-
- - 'git-mailinfo' choke when a logical header line was too long.
-
- - 'git show A..B' did not error out. Negative ref ("not A" in
- this example) does not make sense for the purpose of the
- command, so now it errors out.
-
- - 'git fmt-merge-msg --file' without file parameter did not
- correctly error out.
-
- - 'git archimport' barfed upon encountering a commit without
- summary.
-
- - 'git index-pack' did not protect itself from getting a short
- read out of pread(2).
-
- - 'git http-push' had a few buffer overruns.
-
- - Build dependency fixes to rebuild fetch.o when other headers
- change.
-
- - git.el does not add duplicate sign-off lines.
-
- - git-commit shows the full stat of the resulting commit, not
- just about the files in the current directory, when run from
- a subdirectory.
-
- - "git-checkout -m '@{8 hours ago}'" had a funny failure from
- eval; fixed.
-
- - git-merge (hence git-pull) did not refuse fast-forwarding
- when the working tree had local changes that would have
- conflicted with it.
-
- - a handful small fixes to gitweb.
-
- - build procedure for user-manual is fixed not to require locally
- installed stylesheets.
-
- - "git commit $paths" on paths whose earlier contents were
- already updated in the index were failing out.
-
-
-* Tweaks
-
- - sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
- packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
- reverse order. This has been made more efficient.

-
-Fixes since v1.5.2.1
---------------------
-
-* Usability fix
-
- - git-gui is shipped with its updated blame interface. It is
- rumored that the older one was not just unusable but was
- active health hazard, but this one is actually pretty.
- Please see for yourself.
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - "git checkout fubar" was utterly confused when there is a
- branch fubar and a tag fubar at the same time. It correctly
- checks out the branch fubar now.
-
- - "git clone /path/foo" to clone a local /path/foo.git
- repository left an incorrect configuration.
-
- - "git send-email" correctly unquotes RFC 2047 quoted names in
- the patch-email before using their values.
-
- - We did not accept number of seconds since epoch older than
- year 2000 as a valid timestamp. We now interpret positive
- integers more than 8 digits as such, which allows us to
- express timestamps more recent than March 1973.
-
- - git-cvsimport did not work when you have GIT_DIR to point
- your repository at a nonstandard location.
-
- - Some systems (notably, Solaris) lack hstrerror() to make
- h_errno human readable; prepare a replacement
- implementation.
-
- - .gitignore file listed git-core.spec but what we generate is
- git.spec, and nobody noticed for a long time.
-
- - "git-merge-recursive" does not try to run file level merge
- on binary files.
-
- - "git-branch --track" did not create tracking configuration
- correctly when the branch name had slash in it.
-
- - The email address of the user specified with user.email
- configuration was overridden by EMAIL environment variable.
-
- - The tree parser did not warn about tree entries with
- nonsense file modes, and assumed they must be blobs.
-
- - "git log -z" without any other request to generate diff still
- invoked the diff machinery, wasting cycles.
-
-* Documentation
-
- - Many updates to fix stale or missing documentation.
-
- - Although our documentation was primarily meant to be formatted
- with AsciiDoc7, formatting with AsciiDoc8 is supported better.

-GIT v1.5.2.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.2.2
---------------------
-
- * Bugfixes
-
- - Version 2 pack index format was introduced in version 1.5.2
- to support pack files that has offset that cannot be
- represented in 32-bit. The runtime code to validate such
- an index mishandled such an index for an empty pack.
-
- - Commit walkers (most notably, fetch over http protocol)
- tried to traverse commit objects contained in trees (aka
- subproject); they shouldn't.
-
- - A build option NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER was not explained in Makefile
- comment correctly.
-
- * Documentation Fixes and Updates
-
- - git-config --regexp was not documented properly.
-
- - git-repack -a was not documented properly.
-
- - git-remote -n was not documented properly.

-GIT v1.5.2.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.2.3
---------------------
-
- * Bugfixes
-
- - "git-gui" bugfixes, including a handful fixes to run it
- better on Cygwin/MSYS.
-
- - "git checkout" failed to switch back and forth between
- branches, one of which has "frotz -> xyzzy" symlink and
- file "xyzzy/filfre", while the other one has a file
- "frotz/filfre".
-
- - "git prune" used to segfault upon seeing a commit that is
- referred to by a tree object (aka "subproject").
-
- - "git diff --name-status --no-index" mishandled an added file.
-
- - "git apply --reverse --whitespace=warn" still complained
- about whitespaces that a forward application would have
- introduced.
-
- * Documentation Fixes and Updates
-
- - A handful documentation updates.

-GIT v1.5.2.5 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.2.4
---------------------
-
- * Bugfixes
-
- - "git add -u" had a serious data corruption problem in one
- special case (when the changes to a subdirectory's files
- consist only deletion of files).
-
- - "git add -u <path>" did not work from a subdirectory.
-
- - "git apply" left an empty directory after all its files are
- renamed away.
-
- - "git $anycmd foo/bar", when there is a file 'foo' in the
- working tree, complained that "git $anycmd foo/bar --" form
- should be used to disambiguate between revs and files,
- which was completely bogus.
-
- - "git checkout-index" and other commands that checks out
- files to the work tree tried unlink(2) on directories,
- which is a sane thing to do on sane systems, but not on
- Solaris when you are root.
-
- * Documentation Fixes and Updates
-
- - A handful documentation fixes.

-GIT v1.5.2 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Updates since v1.5.1
---------------------
-
-* Plumbing level superproject support.
-
- You can include a subdirectory that has an independent git
- repository in your index and tree objects of your project
- ("superproject"). This plumbing (i.e. "core") level
- superproject support explicitly excludes recursive behaviour.
-
- The "subproject" entries in the index and trees of a superproject
- are incompatible with older versions of git. Experimenting with
- the plumbing level support is encouraged, but be warned that
- unless everybody in your project updates to this release or
- later, using this feature would make your project
- inaccessible by people with older versions of git.
-
-* Plumbing level gitattributes support.
-
- The gitattributes mechanism allows you to add 'attributes' to
- paths in your project, and affect the way certain git
- operations work. Currently you can influence if a path is
- considered a binary or text (the former would be treated by
- 'git diff' not to produce textual output; the latter can go
- through the line endings conversion process in repositories
- with core.autocrlf set), expand and unexpand '$Id$' keyword
- with blob object name, specify a custom 3-way merge driver,
- and specify a custom diff driver. You can also apply
- arbitrary filter to contents on check-in/check-out codepath
- but this feature is an extremely sharp-edged razor and needs
- to be handled with caution (do not use it unless you
- understand the earlier mailing list discussion on keyword
- expansion). These conversions apply when checking files in
- or out, and exporting via git-archive.
-
-* The packfile format now optionally supports 64-bit index.
-
- This release supports the "version 2" format of the .idx
- file. This is automatically enabled when a huge packfile
- needs more than 32-bit to express offsets of objects in the
- pack.
-
-* Comes with an updated git-gui 0.7.1
-
-* Updated gitweb:
-
- - can show combined diff for merges;
- - uses font size of user's preference, not hardcoded in pixels;
- - can now 'grep';
-
-* New commands and options.
-
- - "git bisect start" can optionally take a single bad commit and
- zero or more good commits on the command line.
-
- - "git shortlog" can optionally be told to wrap its output.
-
- - "subtree" merge strategy allows another project to be merged in as
- your subdirectory.
-
- - "git format-patch" learned a new --subject-prefix=<string>
- option, to override the built-in "[PATCH]".
-
- - "git add -u" is a quick way to do the first stage of "git
- commit -a" (i.e. update the index to match the working
- tree); it obviously does not make a commit.
-
- - "git clean" honors a new configuration, "clean.requireforce". When
- set to true, this makes "git clean" a no-op, preventing you
- from losing files by typing "git clean" when you meant to
- say "make clean". You can still say "git clean -f" to
- override this.
-
- - "git log" family of commands learned --date={local,relative,default}
- option. --date=relative is synonym to the --relative-date.
- --date=local gives the timestamp in local timezone.
-
-* Updated behavior of existing commands.
-
- - When $GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL or $GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL is not set
- but $EMAIL is set, the latter is used as a substitute.
-
- - "git diff --stat" shows size of preimage and postimage blobs
- for binary contents. Earlier it only said "Bin".
-
- - "git lost-found" shows stuff that are unreachable except
- from reflogs.
-
- - "git checkout branch^0" now detaches HEAD at the tip commit
- on the named branch, instead of just switching to the
- branch (use "git checkout branch" to switch to the branch,
- as before).
-
- - "git bisect next" can be used after giving only a bad commit
- without giving a good one (this starts bisection half-way to
- the root commit). We used to refuse to operate without a
- good and a bad commit.
-
- - "git push", when pushing into more than one repository, does
- not stop at the first error.
-
- - "git archive" does not insist you to give --format parameter
- anymore; it defaults to "tar".
-
- - "git cvsserver" can use backends other than sqlite.
-
- - "gitview" (in contrib/ section) learned to better support
- "git-annotate".
-
- - "git diff $commit1:$path2 $commit2:$path2" can now report
- mode changes between the two blobs.
-
- - Local "git fetch" from a repository whose object store is
- one of the alternates (e.g. fetching from the origin in a
- repository created with "git clone -l -s") avoids
- downloading objects unnecessarily.
-
- - "git blame" uses .mailmap to canonicalize the author name
- just like "git shortlog" does.
-
- - "git pack-objects" pays attention to pack.depth
- configuration variable.
-
- - "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" does not use .msg file in
- the working tree to prepare commit message; instead it uses
- $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG as other commands do.
-
-* Builds
-
- - git-p4import has never been installed; now there is an
- installation option to do so.
-
- - gitk and git-gui can be configured out.
-
- - Generated documentation pages automatically get version
- information from GIT_VERSION.
-
- - Parallel build with "make -j" descending into subdirectory
- was fixed.
-
-* Performance Tweaks
-
- - Optimized "git-rev-list --bisect" (hence "git-bisect").
-
- - Optimized "git-add $path" in a large directory, most of
- whose contents are ignored.
-
- - Optimized "git-diff-tree" for reduced memory footprint.
-
- - The recursive merge strategy updated a worktree file that
- was changed identically in two branches, when one of them
- renamed it. We do not do that when there is no rename, so
- match that behaviour. This avoids excessive rebuilds.
-
- - The default pack depth has been increased to 50, as the
- recent addition of delta_base_cache makes deeper delta chains
- much less expensive to access. Depending on the project, it was
- reported that this reduces the resulting pack file by 10%
- or so.
-
-
-Fixes since v1.5.1
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.5.1 maintenance series are included in
-this release, unless otherwise noted.
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - Switching branches with "git checkout" refused to work when
- a path changes from a file to a directory between the
- current branch and the new branch, in order not to lose
- possible local changes in the directory that is being turned
- into a file with the switch. We now allow such a branch
- switch after making sure that there is no locally modified
- file nor un-ignored file in the directory. This has not
- been backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an
- intrusive change.
-
- - Merging branches that have a file in one and a directory in
- another at the same path used to get quite confused. We
- handle such a case a bit more carefully, even though that is
- still left as a conflict for the user to sort out. This
- will not be backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an
- intrusive change.
-
- - git-fetch had trouble with a remote with insanely large number
- of refs.
-
- - "git clean -d -X" now does not remove non-excluded directories.
-
- - rebasing (without -m) a series that changes a symlink to a directory
- in the middle of a path confused git-apply greatly and refused to
- operate.

-
-This is solely to fix the generated RPM's dependencies. We used

-GIT v1.5.3.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.3.1
---------------------
-
- * git-push sent thin packs by default, which was not good for
- the public distribution server (no point in saving transfer
- while pushing; no point in making the resulting pack less
- optimum).
-
- * git-svn sometimes terminated with "Malformed network data" when
- talking over svn:// protocol.
-
- * git-send-email re-issued the same message-id about 10% of the
- time if you fired off 30 messages within a single second.
-
- * git-stash was not terminating the log message of commits it
- internally creates with LF.
-
- * git-apply failed to check the size of the patch hunk when its
- beginning part matched the remainder of the preimage exactly,
- even though the preimage recorded in the hunk was much larger
- (therefore the patch should not have applied), leading to a
- segfault.
-
- * "git rm foo && git commit foo" complained that 'foo' needs to
- be added first, instead of committing the removal, which was a
- nonsense.
-
- * git grep -c said "/dev/null: 0".
-
- * git-add -u failed to recognize a blob whose type changed
- between the index and the work tree.
-
- * The limit to rename detection has been tightened a lot to
- reduce performance problems with a huge change.
-
- * cvsimport and svnimport barfed when the input tried to move
- a tag.
-
- * "git apply -pN" did not chop the right number of directories.
-
- * "git svnimport" did not like SVN tags with funny characters in them.
-
- * git-gui 0.8.3, with assorted fixes, including:
-
- - font-chooser on X11 was unusable with large number of fonts;
- - a diff that contained a deleted symlink made it barf;
- - an untracked symbolic link to a directory made it fart;
- - a file with % in its name made it vomit;
-

-
-User manual has been somewhat restructured. I think the new
-organization is much easier to read.

- * git-send-email added 8-bit contents to the payload without
- marking it as 8-bit in a CTE header.
-
- * "git-bundle create a.bndl HEAD" dereferenced the symref and

- with MIME encoding header.
-
- * git-add sometimes did not mark the resulting index entry
- stat-clean. This affected only cases when adding the

-GIT v1.5.3 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Updates since v1.5.2
---------------------
-
-* The commit walkers other than http are officially deprecated,
- but still supported for now.
-
-* The submodule support has Porcelain layer.
-
- Note that the current submodule support is minimal and this is
- deliberately so. A design decision we made is that operations
- at the supermodule level do not recurse into submodules by
- default. The expectation is that later we would add a
- mechanism to tell git which submodules the user is interested
- in, and this information might be used to determine the
- recursive behaviour of certain commands (e.g. "git checkout"
- and "git diff"), but currently we haven't agreed on what that
- mechanism should look like. Therefore, if you use submodules,
- you would probably need "git submodule update" on the
- submodules you care about after running a "git checkout" at
- the supermodule level.
-
-* There are a handful pack-objects changes to help you cope better
- with repositories with pathologically large blobs in them.
-
-* For people who need to import from Perforce, a front-end for
- fast-import is in contrib/fast-import/.
-
-* Comes with git-gui 0.8.2.
-
-* Comes with updated gitk.
-
-* New commands and options.
-
- - "git log --date=<format>" can use more formats: iso8601, rfc2822.
-
- - The hunk header output from "git diff" family can be customized
- with the attributes mechanism. See gitattributes(5) for details.
-
- - "git stash" allows you to quickly save away your work in
- progress and replay it later on an updated state.
-
- - "git rebase" learned an "interactive" mode that let you
- pick and reorder which commits to rebuild.
-
- - "git fsck" can save its findings in $GIT_DIR/lost-found, without a
- separate invocation of "git lost-found" command. The blobs stored by
- lost-found are stored in plain format to allow you to grep in them.
-
- - $GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable can be used together with
- $GIT_DIR to work in a subdirectory of a working tree that is
- not located at "$GIT_DIR/..".
-
- - Giving "--file=<file>" option to "git config" is the same as
- running the command with GIT_CONFIG=<file> environment.
-
- - "git log" learned a new option "--follow", to follow
- renaming history of a single file.
-
- - "git filter-branch" lets you rewrite the revision history of
- specified branches. You can specify a number of filters to
- modify the commits, files and trees.
-
- - "git cvsserver" learned new options (--base-path, --export-all,
- --strict-paths) inspired by "git daemon".
-
- - "git daemon --base-path-relaxed" can help migrating a repository URL
- that did not use to use --base-path to use --base-path.
-
- - "git commit" can use "-t templatefile" option and commit.template
- configuration variable to prime the commit message given to you in the
- editor.
-
- - "git submodule" command helps you manage the projects from
- the superproject that contain them.
-
- - In addition to core.compression configuration option,
- core.loosecompression and pack.compression options can
- independently tweak zlib compression levels used for loose
- and packed objects.
-
- - "git ls-tree -l" shows size of blobs pointed at by the
- tree entries, similar to "/bin/ls -l".
-
- - "git rev-list" learned --regexp-ignore-case and
- --extended-regexp options to tweak its matching logic used
- for --grep filtering.
-
- - "git describe --contains" is a handier way to call more
- obscure command "git name-rev --tags".
-
- - "git gc --aggressive" tells the command to spend more cycles
- to optimize the repository harder.
-
- - "git repack" learned a "window-memory" limit which
- dynamically reduces the window size to stay within the
- specified memory usage.
-
- - "git repack" can be told to split resulting packs to avoid
- exceeding limit specified with "--max-pack-size".
-
- - "git fsck" gained --verbose option. This is really really
- verbose but it might help you identify exact commit that is
- corrupt in your repository.
-
- - "git format-patch" learned --numbered-files option. This
- may be useful for MH users.
-
- - "git format-patch" learned format.subjectprefix configuration
- variable, which serves the same purpose as "--subject-prefix"
- option.
-
- - "git tag -n -l" shows tag annotations while listing tags.
-
- - "git cvsimport" can optionally use the separate-remote layout.
-
- - "git blame" can be told to see through commits that change
- whitespaces and indentation levels with "-w" option.
-
- - "git send-email" can be told not to thread the messages when
- sending out more than one patches.
-
- - "git send-email" can also be told how to find whom to cc the
- message to for each message via --cc-cmd.
-
- - "git config" learned NUL terminated output format via -z to
- help scripts.
-
- - "git add" learned "--refresh <paths>..." option to selectively refresh
- the cached stat information.
-
- - "git init -q" makes the command quieter.
-
- - "git -p command" now has a cousin of opposite sex, "git --no-pager
- command".
-
-* Updated behavior of existing commands.
-
- - "gitweb" can offer multiple snapshot formats.
-
- ***NOTE*** Unfortunately, this changes the format of the
- $feature{snapshot}{default} entry in the per-site
- configuration file 'gitweb_config.perl'. It used to be a
- three-element tuple that describe a single format; with the
- new configuration item format, you only have to say the name
- of the format ('tgz', 'tbz2' or 'zip'). Please update the
- your configuration file accordingly.
-
- - "git clone" uses -l (hardlink files under .git) by default when
- cloning locally.
-
- - URL used for "git clone" and friends can specify nonstandard SSH port
- by using ssh://host:port/path/to/repo syntax.
-
- - "git bundle create" can now create a bundle without negative refs,
- i.e. "everything since the beginning up to certain points".
-
- - "git diff" (but not the plumbing level "git diff-tree") now
- recursively descends into trees by default.
-
- - "git diff" does not show differences that come only from
- stat-dirtiness in the form of "diff --git" header anymore.
- It runs "update-index --refresh" silently as needed.
-
- - "git tag -l" used to match tags by globbing its parameter as if it
- has wildcard '*' on both ends, which made "git tag -l gui" to match
- tag 'gitgui-0.7.0'; this was very annoying. You now have to add
- asterisk on the sides you want to wildcard yourself.
-
- - The editor to use with many interactive commands can be
- overridden with GIT_EDITOR environment variable, or if it
- does not exist, with core.editor configuration variable. As
- before, if you have neither, environment variables VISUAL
- and EDITOR are consulted in this order, and then finally we
- fall back on "vi".
-
- - "git rm --cached" does not complain when removing a newly
- added file from the index anymore.
-
- - Options to "git log" to affect how --grep/--author options look for
- given strings now have shorter abbreviations. -i is for ignore case,
- and -E is for extended regexp.
-
- - "git log" learned --log-size to show the number of bytes in
- the log message part of the output to help qgit.
-
- - "git log --name-status" does not require you to give "-r" anymore.
- As a general rule, Porcelain commands should recurse when showing
- diff.
-
- - "git format-patch --root A" can be used to format everything
- since the beginning up to A. This was supported with
- "git format-patch --root A A" for a long time, but was not
- properly documented.
-
- - "git svn dcommit" retains local merge information.
-
- - "git svnimport" allows an empty string to be specified as the
- trunk/ directory. This is necessary to suck data from a SVN
- repository that doe not have trunk/ branches/ and tags/ organization
- at all.
-
- - "git config" to set values also honors type flags like --bool
- and --int.
-
- - core.quotepath configuration can be used to make textual git
- output to emit most of the characters in the path literally.
-
- - "git mergetool" chooses its backend more wisely, taking
- notice of its environment such as use of X, Gnome/KDE, etc.
-
- - "gitweb" shows merge commits a lot nicer than before. The
- default view uses more compact --cc format, while the UI
- allows to choose normal diff with any parent.
-
- - snapshot files "gitweb" creates from a repository at
- $path/$project/.git are more useful. We use $project part
- in the filename, which we used to discard.
-
- - "git cvsimport" creates lightweight tags; there is no
- interesting information we can record in an annotated tag,
- and the handcrafted ones the old code created was not
- properly formed anyway.
-
- - "git push" pretends that you immediately fetched back from
- the remote by updating corresponding remote tracking
- branches if you have any.
-
- - The diffstat given after a merge (or a pull) honors the
- color.diff configuration.
-
- - "git commit --amend" is now compatible with various message source
- options such as -m/-C/-c/-F.
-
- - "git apply --whitespace=strip" removes blank lines added at
- the end of the file.
-
- - "git fetch" over git native protocols with "-v" option shows
- connection status, and the IP address of the other end, to
- help diagnosing problems.
-
- - We used to have core.legacyheaders configuration, when
- set to false, allowed git to write loose objects in a format
- that mimics the format used by objects stored in packs. It
- turns out that this was not so useful. Although we will
- continue to read objects written in that format, we do not
- honor that configuration anymore and create loose objects in
- the legacy/traditional format.
-
- - "--find-copies-harder" option to diff family can now be
- spelled as "-C -C" for brevity.
-
- - "git mailsplit" (hence "git am") can read from Maildir
- formatted mailboxes.
-
- - "git cvsserver" does not barf upon seeing "cvs login"
- request.
-
- - "pack-objects" honors "delta" attribute set in
- .gitattributes. It does not attempt to deltify blobs that
- come from paths with delta attribute set to false.
-
- - "new-workdir" script (in contrib) can now be used with a
- bare repository.
-
- - "git mergetool" learned to use gvimdiff.
-
- - "gitview" (in contrib) has a better blame interface.
-
- - "git log" and friends did not handle a commit log message
- that is larger than 16kB; they do now.
-
- - "--pretty=oneline" output format for "git log" and friends
- deals with "malformed" commit log messages that have more
- than one lines in the first paragraph better. We used to
- show the first line, cutting the title at mid-sentence; we
- concatenate them into a single line and treat the result as
- "oneline".
-
- - "git p4import" has been demoted to contrib status. For
- a superior option, checkout the "git p4" front end to
- "git fast-import" (also in contrib). The man page and p4
- rpm have been removed as well.
-
- - "git mailinfo" (hence "am") now tries to see if the message
- is in utf-8 first, instead of assuming iso-8859-1, if
- incoming e-mail does not say what encoding it is in.
-
-* Builds
-
- - old-style function definitions (most notably, a function
- without parameter defined with "func()", not "func(void)")
- have been eradicated.
-
- - "git tag" and "git verify-tag" have been rewritten in C.
-
-* Performance Tweaks
-
- - "git pack-objects" avoids re-deltification cost by caching
- small enough delta results it creates while looking for the
- best delta candidates.
-
- - "git pack-objects" learned a new heuristic to prefer delta
- that is shallower in depth over the smallest delta
- possible. This improves both overall packfile access
- performance and packfile density.
-
- - diff-delta code that is used for packing has been improved
- to work better on big files.
-
- - when there are more than one pack files in the repository,
- the runtime used to try finding an object always from the
- newest packfile; it now tries the same packfile as we found
- the object requested the last time, which exploits the
- locality of references.
-
- - verifying pack contents done by "git fsck --full" got boost
- by carefully choosing the order to verify objects in them.
-
- - "git read-tree -m" to read into an already populated index
- has been optimized vastly. The effect of this can be seen
- when switching branches that have differences in only a
- handful paths.
-
- - "git add paths..." and "git commit paths..." has also been
- heavily optimized.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.2
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.5.2 maintenance series are included in
-this release, unless otherwise noted.
-
-* Bugfixes
-
- - "gitweb" had trouble handling non UTF-8 text with older
- Encode.pm Perl module.
-
- - "git svn" misparsed the data from the commits in the repository when
- the user had "color.diff = true" in the configuration. This has been
- fixed.
-
- - There was a case where "git svn dcommit" clobbered changes made on the
- SVN side while committing multiple changes.
-
- - "git-write-tree" had a bad interaction with racy-git avoidance and
- gitattributes mechanisms.
-
- - "git --bare command" overrode existing GIT_DIR setting and always
- made it treat the current working directory as GIT_DIR.
-
- - "git ls-files --error-unmatch" does not complain if you give the
- same path pattern twice by mistake.
-
- - "git init" autodetected core.filemode but not core.symlinks, which
- made a new directory created automatically by "git clone" cumbersome
- to use on filesystems that require these configurations to be set.
-
- - "git log" family of commands behaved differently when run as "git
- log" (no pathspec) and as "git log --" (again, no pathspec). This
- inconsistency was introduced somewhere in v1.3.0 series but now has
- been corrected.
-
- - "git rebase -m" incorrectly displayed commits that were skipped.

-GIT v1.5.4.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4
-------------------
-
- * "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in
- 1.5.4 broke it.
-
- * An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a
- subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match
- correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should
- match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't).
-
- * Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when
- numeric color values are used. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
-
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.4.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4
-------------------
-
- * The configuration parser was not prepared to see string
- valued variables misspelled as boolean and segfaulted.
-
- * Temporary files left behind due to interrupted object
- transfers were not cleaned up with "git prune".
-
- * "git config --unset" was confused when the unset variables
- were spelled with continuation lines in the config file.
-
- * The merge message detection in "git cvsimport" did not catch
- a message that began with "Merge...".
-
- * "git status" suggests "git rm --cached" for unstaging the
- earlier "git add" before the initial commit.
-
- * "git status" output was incorrect during a partial commit.
-
- * "git bisect" refused to start when the HEAD was detached.
-
- * "git bisect" allowed a wildcard character in the commit
- message expanded while writing its log file.
-
- * Manual pages were not formatted correctly with docbook xsl
- 1.72; added a workaround.
-
- * "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in
- 1.5.4 broke it. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
-
- * An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a
- subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match
- correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should
- match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't). This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
-
- * Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when
- numeric color values are used. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
-
- * http transport misbehaved when linked with curl-gnutls.

-GIT v1.5.4.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4.2
---------------------
-
- * RPM spec used to pull in everything with 'git'. This has been
- changed so that 'git' package contains just the core parts,
- and we now supply 'git-all' metapackage to slurp in everything.
- This should match end user's expectation better.
-
- * When some refs failed to update, git-push reported "failure"
- which was unclear if some other refs were updated or all of
- them failed atomically (the answer is the former). Reworded
- the message to clarify this.
-
- * "git clone" from a repository whose HEAD was misconfigured
- did not set up the remote properly. Now it tries to do
- better.
-
- * Updated git-push documentation to clarify what "matching"
- means, in order to reduce user confusion.
-
- * Updated git-add documentation to clarify "add -u" operates in
- the current subdirectory you are in, just like other commands.
-
- * git-gui updates to work on OSX and Windows better.

-GIT v1.5.4.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4.3
---------------------
-
- * Building and installing with an overtight umask such as 077 made
- installed templates unreadable by others, while the rest of the install
- are done in a way that is friendly to umask 022.
-
- * "git cvsexportcommit -w $cvsdir" misbehaved when GIT_DIR is set to a
- relative directory.
-
- * "git http-push" had an invalid memory access that could lead it to
- segfault.
-
- * When "git rebase -i" gave control back to the user for a commit that is
- marked to be edited, it just said "modify it with commit --amend",
- without saying what to do to continue after modifying it. Give an
- explicit instruction to run "rebase --continue" to be more helpful.
-
- * "git send-email" in 1.5.4.3 issued a bogus empty In-Reply-To: header.
-
- * "git bisect" showed mysterious "won't bisect on seeked tree" error message.
- This was leftover from Cogito days to prevent "bisect" starting from a
- cg-seeked state. We still keep the Cogito safety, but running "git bisect
- start" when another bisect was in effect will clean up and start over.
-
- * "git push" with an explicit PATH to receive-pack did not quite work if
- receive-pack was not on usual PATH. We earlier fixed the same issue
- with "git fetch" and upload-pack, but somehow forgot to do so in the
- other direction.
-
- * git-gui's info dialog was not displayed correctly when the user tries
- to commit nothing (i.e. without staging anything).
-
- * "git revert" did not properly fail when attempting to run with a
- dirty index.
-
- * "git merge --no-commit --no-ff <other>" incorrectly made commits.
-
- * "git merge --squash --no-ff <other>", which is a nonsense combination
- of options, was not rejected.
-
- * "git ls-remote" and "git remote show" against an empty repository
- failed, instead of just giving an empty result (regression).
-
- * "git fast-import" did not handle a renamed path whose name needs to be
- quoted, due to a bug in unquote_c_style() function.
-
- * "git cvsexportcommit" was confused when multiple files with the same
- basename needed to be pushed out in the same commit.
-
- * "git daemon" did not send early errors to syslog.
-
- * "git log --merge" did not work well with --left-right option.
-
- * "git svn" prompted for client cert password every time it accessed the
- server.
-
- * The reset command in "git fast-import" data stream was documented to
- end with an optional LF, but it actually required one.
-
- * "git svn dcommit/rebase" did not honor --rewrite-root option.
-
-Also included are a handful documentation updates.
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.4.5 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4.4
---------------------
-
- * "git fetch there" when the URL information came from the Cogito style
- branches/there file did not update refs/heads/there (regression in
- 1.5.4).
-
- * Bogus refspec configuration such as "remote.there.fetch = =" were not
- detected as errors (regression in 1.5.4).
-
- * You couldn't specify a custom editor whose path contains a whitespace
- via GIT_EDITOR (and core.editor).
-
- * The subdirectory filter to "git filter-branch" mishandled a history
- where the subdirectory becomes empty and then later becomes non-empty.
-
- * "git shortlog" gave an empty line if the original commit message was
- malformed (e.g. a botched import from foreign SCM). Now it finds the
- first non-empty line and uses it for better information.
-
- * When the user fails to give a revision parameter to "git svn", an error
- from the Perl interpreter was issued because the script lacked proper
- error checking.
-
- * After "git rebase" stopped due to conflicts, if the user played with
- "git reset" and friends, "git rebase --abort" failed to go back to the
- correct commit.
-
- * Additional work trees prepared with git-new-workdir (in contrib/) did
- not share git-svn metadata directory .git/svn with the original.
-
- * "git-merge-recursive" did not mark addition of the same path with
- different filemodes correctly as a conflict.
-
- * "gitweb" gave malformed URL when pathinfo stype paths are in use.
-
- * "-n" stands for "--no-tags" again for "git fetch".
-
- * "git format-patch" did not detect the need to add 8-bit MIME header
- when the user used format.header configuration.
-
- * "rev~" revision specifier used to mean "rev", which was inconsistent
- with how "rev^" worked. Now "rev~" is the same as "rev~1" (hence it
- also is the same as "rev^1"), and "rev~0" is the same as "rev^0"
- (i.e. it has to be a commit).
-
- * "git quiltimport" did not grok empty lines, lines in "file -pNNN"
- format to specify the prefix levels and lines with trailing comments.
-
- * "git rebase -m" triggered pre-commit verification, which made
- "rebase --continue" impossible.
-
-As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications.
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.4.6 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-I personally do not think there is any reason anybody should want to
-run v1.5.4.X series these days, because 'master' version is always
-more stable than any tagged released version of git.
-
-This is primarily to futureproof "git-shell" to accept requests
-without a dash between "git" and subcommand name (e.g. "git
-upload-pack") which the newer client will start to make sometime in
-the future.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4.5
---------------------
-
- * Command line option "-n" to "git-repack" was not correctly parsed.
-
- * Error messages from "git-apply" when the patchfile cannot be opened
- have been improved.
-
- * Error messages from "git-bisect" when given nonsense revisions have
- been improved.
-
- * reflog syntax that uses time e.g. "HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path" did not
- stop parsing at the closing "}".
-
- * "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name ^master^2" printed solitary "^",
- but it should print nothing.
-
- * "git apply" did not enforce "match at the beginning" correctly.
-
- * a path specification "a/b" in .gitattributes file should not match
- "sub/a/b", but it did.
-
- * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier
- date-order with topo-order as expected.
-
- * "git fast-export" did not export octopus merges correctly.
-
- * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes.
-
-As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications.
-
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.4.7 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since 1.5.4.7
--------------------
-
- * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose
- implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing,
- which would have run an external diff command specified in the
- repository configuration as the gitweb user.
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.4 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Removal
--------
-
- * "git svnimport" was removed in favor of "git svn". It is still there
- in the source tree (contrib/examples) but unsupported.
-
- * As git-commit and git-status have been rewritten, "git runstatus"
- helper script lost all its users and has been removed.
-
-
-Temporarily disabled
---------------------
-
- * "git http-push" is known not to work well with cURL library older
- than 7.16, and we had reports of repository corruption. It is
- disabled on such platforms for now. Unfortunately, 1.5.3.8 shares
- the same issue. In other words, this does not mean you will be
- fine if you stick to an older git release. For now, please do not
- use http-push from older git with cURL older than 7.16 if you
- value your data. A proper fix will hopefully materialize in
- later versions.
-
-
-Deprecation notices
--------------------
-
- * From v1.6.0, git will by default install dashed form of commands
- (e.g. "git-commit") outside of users' normal $PATH, and will install
- only selected commands ("git" itself, and "gitk") in $PATH. This
- implies:
-
- - Using dashed forms of git commands (e.g. "git-commit") from the
- command line has been informally deprecated since early 2006, but
- now it officially is, and will be removed in the future. Use
- dash-less forms (e.g. "git commit") instead.
-
- - Using dashed forms from your scripts, without first prepending the
- return value from "git --exec-path" to the scripts' PATH, has been
- informally deprecated since early 2006, but now it officially is.
-
- - Use of dashed forms with "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH; export
- PATH" early in your script is not deprecated with this change.
-
- Users are strongly encouraged to adjust their habits and scripts now
- to prepare for this change.
-
- * The post-receive hook was introduced in March 2007 to supersede
- the post-update hook, primarily to overcome the command line length
- limitation of the latter. Use of post-update hook will be deprecated
- in future versions of git, starting from v1.6.0.
-
- * "git lost-found" was deprecated in favor of "git fsck"'s --lost-found
- option, and will be removed in the future.
-
- * "git peek-remote" is deprecated, as "git ls-remote" was written in C
- and works for all transports; "git peek-remote" will be removed in
- the future.
-
- * "git repo-config" which was an old name for "git config" command
- has been supported without being advertised for a long time. The
- next feature release will remove it.
-
- * From v1.6.0, the repack.usedeltabaseoffset config option will default
- to true, which will give denser packfiles (i.e. more efficient storage).
- The downside is that git older than version 1.4.4 will not be able
- to directly use a repository packed using this setting.
-
- * From v1.6.0, the pack.indexversion config option will default to 2,
- which is slightly more efficient, and makes repacking more immune to
- data corruptions. Git older than version 1.5.2 may revert to version 1
- of the pack index with a manual "git index-pack" to be able to directly
- access corresponding pack files.
-
-
-Updates since v1.5.3
---------------------
-
- * Comes with much improved gitk, with i18n.
-
- * Comes with git-gui 0.9.2 with i18n.
-
- * gitk is now merged as a subdirectory of git.git project, in
- preparation for its i18n.
-
- * progress displays from many commands are a lot nicer to the eye.
- Transfer commands show throughput data.
-
- * many commands that pay attention to per-directory .gitignore now do
- so lazily, which makes the usual case go much faster.
-
- * Output processing for '--pretty=format:<user format>' has been
- optimized.
-
- * Rename detection of diff family while detecting exact matches has
- been greatly optimized.
-
- * Rename detection of diff family tries to make more natural looking
- pairing. Earlier, if multiple identical rename sources were
- found in the preimage, the source used was picked pretty much at random.
-
- * Value "true" for color.diff and color.status configuration used to
- mean "always" (even when the output is not going to a terminal).
- This has been corrected to mean the same thing as "auto".
-
- * "git diff" Porcelain now respects diff.external configuration, which
- is another way to specify GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF.
-
- * "git diff" can be told to use different prefixes other than
- "a/" and "b/" e.g. "git diff --src-prefix=l/ --dst-prefix=k/".
-
- * "git diff" sometimes did not quote paths with funny
- characters properly.
-
- * "git log" (and any revision traversal commands) misbehaved
- when --diff-filter is given but was not asked to actually
- produce diff.
-
- * HTTP proxy can be specified per remote repository using
- remote.*.httpproxy configuration, or global http.proxy configuration
- variable.
-
- * Various Perforce importer updates.
-
- * Example update and post-receive hooks have been improved.
-
- * Any command that wants to take a commit object name can now use
- ":/string" syntax to name a commit.
-
- * "git reset" is now built-in and its output can be squelched with -q.
-
- * "git reset --hard" does not make any sense in a bare
- repository, but did not error out; fixed.
-
- * "git send-email" can optionally talk over ssmtp and use SMTP-AUTH.
-
- * "git rebase" learned --whitespace option.
-
- * In "git rebase", when you decide not to replay a particular change
- after the command stopped with a conflict, you can say "git rebase
- --skip" without first running "git reset --hard", as the command now
- runs it for you.
-
- * "git rebase --interactive" mode can now work on detached HEAD.
-
- * Other minor to serious bugs in "git rebase -i" have been fixed.
-
- * "git rebase" now detaches head during its operation, so after a
- successful "git rebase" operation, the reflog entry branch@{1} for
- the current branch points at the commit before the rebase was
- started.
-
- * "git rebase -i" also triggers rerere to help your repeated merges.
-
- * "git merge" can call the "post-merge" hook.
-
- * "git pack-objects" can optionally run deltification with multiple
- threads.
-
- * "git archive" can optionally substitute keywords in files marked with
- export-subst attribute.
-
- * "git cherry-pick" made a misguided attempt to repeat the original
- command line in the generated log message, when told to cherry-pick a
- commit by naming a tag that points at it. It does not anymore.
-
- * "git for-each-ref" learned %(xxxdate:<date-format>) syntax to show the
- various date fields in different formats.
-
- * "git gc --auto" is a low-impact way to automatically run a variant of
- "git repack" that does not lose unreferenced objects (read: safer
- than the usual one) after the user accumulates too many loose
- objects.
-
- * "git clean" has been rewritten in C.
-
- * You need to explicitly set clean.requireForce to "false" to allow
- "git clean" without -f to do any damage (lack of the configuration
- variable used to mean "do not require -f option to lose untracked
- files", but we now use the safer default).
-
- * The kinds of whitespace errors "git diff" and "git apply" notice (and
- fix) can be controlled via 'core.whitespace' configuration variable
- and 'whitespace' attribute in .gitattributes file.
-
- * "git push" learned --dry-run option to show what would happen if a
- push is run.
-
- * "git push" does not update a tracking ref on the local side when the
- remote refused to update the corresponding ref.
-
- * "git push" learned --mirror option. This is to push the local refs
- one-to-one to the remote, and deletes refs from the remote that do
- not exist anymore in the repository on the pushing side.
-
- * "git push" can remove a corrupt ref at the remote site with the usual
- ":ref" refspec.
-
- * "git remote" knows --mirror mode. This is to set up configuration to
- push into a remote repository to store local branch heads to the same
- branch on the remote side, and remove branch heads locally removed
- from local repository at the same time. Suitable for pushing into a
- back-up repository.
-
- * "git remote" learned "rm" subcommand.
-
- * "git cvsserver" can be run via "git shell". Also, "cvs" is
- recognized as a synonym for "git cvsserver", so that CVS users
- can be switched to git just by changing their login shell.
-
- * "git cvsserver" acts more like receive-pack by running post-receive
- and post-update hooks.
-
- * "git am" and "git rebase" are far less verbose.
-
- * "git pull" learned to pass --[no-]ff option to underlying "git
- merge".
-
- * "git pull --rebase" is a different way to integrate what you fetched
- into your current branch.
-
- * "git fast-export" produces data-stream that can be fed to fast-import
- to reproduce the history recorded in a git repository.
-
- * "git add -i" takes pathspecs to limit the set of files to work on.
-
- * "git add -p" is a short-hand to go directly to the selective patch
- subcommand in the interactive command loop and to exit when done.
-
- * "git add -i" UI has been colorized. The interactive prompt
- and menu can be colored by setting color.interactive
- configuration. The diff output (including the hunk picker)
- are colored with color.diff configuration.
-
- * "git commit --allow-empty" allows you to create a single-parent
- commit that records the same tree as its parent, overriding the usual
- safety valve.
-
- * "git commit --amend" can amend a merge that does not change the tree
- from its first parent.
-
- * "git commit" used to unconditionally strip comment lines that
- began with '#' and removed excess blank lines. This behavior has
- been made configurable.
-
- * "git commit" has been rewritten in C.
-
- * "git stash random-text" does not create a new stash anymore. It was
- a UI mistake. Use "git stash save random-text", or "git stash"
- (without extra args) for that.
-
- * "git stash clear extra-text" does not clear the whole stash
- anymore. It is tempting to expect "git stash clear stash@{2}"
- to drop only a single named stash entry, and it is rude to
- discard everything when that is asked (but not provided).
-
- * "git prune --expire <time>" can exempt young loose objects from
- getting pruned.
-
- * "git branch --contains <commit>" can list branches that are
- descendants of a given commit.
-
- * "git log" learned --early-output option to help interactive GUI
- implementations.
-
- * "git bisect" learned "skip" action to mark untestable commits.
-
- * "git bisect visualize" learned a shorter synonym "git bisect view".
-
- * "git bisect visualize" runs "git log" in a non-windowed
- environments. It also can be told what command to run (e.g. "git
- bisect visualize tig").
-
- * "git format-patch" learned "format.numbered" configuration variable
- to automatically turn --numbered option on when more than one commits
- are formatted.
-
- * "git ls-files" learned "--exclude-standard" to use the canned set of
- exclude files.
-
- * "git tag -a -f existing" begins the editor session using the existing
- annotation message.
-
- * "git tag -m one -m bar" (multiple -m options) behaves similarly to
- "git commit"; the parameters to -m options are formatted as separate
- paragraphs.
-
- * The format "git show" outputs an annotated tag has been updated to
- include "Tagger: " and "Date: " lines from the tag itself. Strictly
- speaking this is a backward incompatible change, but this is a
- reasonable usability fix and people's scripts shouldn't have been
- relying on the exact output from "git show" Porcelain anyway.
-
- * "git cvsimport" did not notice errors from underlying "cvsps"
- and produced a corrupt import silently.
-
- * "git cvsexportcommit" learned -w option to specify and switch to the
- CVS working directory.
-
- * "git checkout" from a subdirectory learned to use "../path" to allow
- checking out a path outside the current directory without cd'ing up.
-
- * "git checkout" from and to detached HEAD leaves a bit more
- information in the reflog.
-
- * "git send-email --dry-run" shows full headers for easier diagnosis.
-
- * "git merge-ours" is now built-in.
-
- * "git svn" learned "info" and "show-externals" subcommands.
-
- * "git svn" run from a subdirectory failed to read settings from the
- .git/config.
-
- * "git svn" learned --use-log-author option, which picks up more
- descriptive name from From: and Signed-off-by: lines in the commit
- message.
-
- * "git svn" wasted way too much disk to record revision mappings
- between svn and git; a new representation that is much more compact
- for this information has been introduced to correct this.
-
- * "git svn" left temporary index files it used without cleaning them
- up; this was corrected.
-
- * "git status" from a subdirectory now shows relative paths, which
- makes copy-and-pasting for git-checkout/git-add/git-rm easier. The
- traditional behavior to show the full path relative to the top of
- the work tree can be had by setting status.relativepaths
- configuration variable to false.
-
- * "git blame" kept text for each annotated revision in core needlessly;
- this has been corrected.
-
- * "git shortlog" learned to default to HEAD when the standard input is
- a terminal and the user did not give any revision parameter.
-
- * "git shortlog" learned "-e" option to show e-mail addresses as well as
- authors' names.
-
- * "git help" learned "-w" option to show documentation in browsers.
-
- * In addition there are quite a few internal clean-ups. Notably:
-
- - many fork/exec have been replaced with run-command API,
- brought from the msysgit effort.
-
- - introduction and more use of the option parser API.
-
- - enhancement and more use of the strbuf API.
-
- * Makefile tweaks to support HP-UX is in.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.3
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.5.3 maintenance series are included in
-this release, unless otherwise noted.
-
-These fixes are only in v1.5.4 and not backported to v1.5.3 maintenance
-series.
-
- * The way "git diff --check" behaves is much more consistent with the way
- "git apply --whitespace=warn" works.
-
- * "git svn" talking with the SVN over HTTP will correctly quote branch
- and project names.
-
- * "git config" did not work correctly on platforms that define
- REG_NOMATCH to an even number.
-
- * Recent versions of AsciiDoc 8 has a change to break our
- documentation; a workaround has been implemented.
-
- * "git diff --color-words" colored context lines in a wrong color.

-GIT v1.5.5.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.5
-------------------
-
- * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes.
-
- * "git fetch -v" that fetches into FETCH_HEAD did not report the summary
- the same way as done for updating the tracking refs.
-
- * "git svn" misbehaved when the configuration file customized the "git
- log" output format using format.pretty.
-
- * "git submodule status" leaked an unnecessary error message.
-
- * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier
- date-order with topo-order as expected.
-
- * "git bisect good $this" did not check the validity of the revision
- given properly.
-
- * "url.<there>.insteadOf" did not work correctly.
-
- * "git clean" ran inside subdirectory behaved as if the directory was
- explicitly specified for removal by the end user from the top level.
-
- * "git bisect" from a detached head leaked an unnecessary error message.
-
- * "git bisect good $a $b" when $a is Ok but $b is bogus should have
- atomically failed before marking $a as good.
-
- * "git fmt-merge-msg" did not clean up leading empty lines from commit
- log messages like "git log" family does.
-
- * "git am" recorded a commit with empty Subject: line without
- complaining.
-
- * when given a commit log message whose first paragraph consists of
- multiple lines, "git rebase" squashed it into a single line.
-
- * "git remote add $bogus_name $url" did not complain properly.
-
-Also comes with various documentation updates.

-Fixes since v1.5.5.1
---------------------
-
- * "git repack -n" was mistakenly made no-op earlier.
-
- * "git imap-send" wanted to always have imap.host even when use of
- imap.tunnel made it unnecessary.
-
- * reflog syntax that uses time e.g. "HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path" did not
- stop parsing at the closing "}".
-
- * "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name ^master^2" printed solitary "^",
- but it should print nothing.
-
- * "git commit" did not detect when it failed to write tree objects.
-
- * "git fetch" sometimes transferred too many objects unnecessarily.
-
- * a path specification "a/b" in .gitattributes file should not match
- "sub/a/b".

-GIT v1.5.5.5 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-I personally do not think there is any reason anybody should want to
-run v1.5.5.X series these days, because 'master' version is always
-more stable than any tagged released version of git.
-
-This is primarily to futureproof "git-shell" to accept requests
-without a dash between "git" and subcommand name (e.g. "git
-upload-pack") which the newer client will start to make sometime in
-the future.

+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.5 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Updates since v1.5.4
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
- * Comes with git-gui 0.10.1
-
-(portability)
-
- * We shouldn't ask for BSD group ownership semantics by setting g+s bit
- on directories on older BSD systems that refuses chmod() by non root
- users. BSD semantics is the default there anyway.
-
- * Bunch of portability improvement patches coming from an effort to port
- to Solaris has been applied.
-
-(performance)
-
- * On platforms with suboptimal qsort(3) implementation, there
- is an option to use more reasonable substitute we ship with
- our software.
-
- * New configuration variable "pack.packsizelimit" can be used
- in place of command line option --max-pack-size.
-
- * "git fetch" over the native git protocol used to make a
- connection to find out the set of current remote refs and
- another to actually download the pack data. We now use only
- one connection for these tasks.
-
- * "git commit" does not run lstat(2) more than necessary
- anymore.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
- * Bash completion script (in contrib) are aware of more commands and
- options.
-
- * You can be warned when core.autocrlf conversion is applied in
- such a way that results in an irreversible conversion.
-
- * A catch-all "color.ui" configuration variable can be used to
- enable coloring of all color-capable commands, instead of
- individual ones such as "color.status" and "color.branch".
-
- * The commands refused to take absolute pathnames where they
- require pathnames relative to the work tree or the current
- subdirectory. They now can take absolute pathnames in such a
- case as long as the pathnames do not refer outside of the
- work tree. E.g. "git add $(pwd)/foo" now works.
-
- * Error messages used to be sent to stderr, only to get hidden,
- when $PAGER was in use. They now are sent to stdout along
- with the command output to be shown in the $PAGER.
-
- * A pattern "foo/" in .gitignore file now matches a directory
- "foo". Pattern "foo" also matches as before.
-
- * bash completion's prompt helper function can talk about
- operation in-progress (e.g. merge, rebase, etc.).
-
- * Configuration variables "url.<usethis>.insteadof = <otherurl>" can be
- used to tell "git-fetch" and "git-push" to use different URL than what
- is given from the command line.
-
- * "git add -i" behaves better even before you make an initial commit.
-
- * "git am" refused to run from a subdirectory without a good reason.
-
- * After "git apply --whitespace=fix" fixes whitespace errors in a patch,
- a line before the fix can appear as a context or preimage line in a
- later patch, causing the patch not to apply. The command now knows to
- see through whitespace fixes done to context lines to successfully
- apply such a patch series.
-
- * "git branch" (and "git checkout -b") to branch from a local branch can
- optionally set "branch.<name>.merge" to mark the new branch to build on
- the other local branch, when "branch.autosetupmerge" is set to
- "always", or when passing the command line option "--track" (this option
- was ignored when branching from local branches). By default, this does
- not happen when branching from a local branch.
-
- * "git checkout" to switch to a branch that has "branch.<name>.merge" set
- (i.e. marked to build on another branch) reports how much the branch
- and the other branch diverged.
-
- * When "git checkout" has to update a lot of paths, it used to be silent
- for 4 seconds before it showed any progress report. It is now a bit
- more impatient and starts showing progress report early.
-
- * "git commit" learned a new hook "prepare-commit-msg" that can
- inspect what is going to be committed and prepare the commit
- log message template to be edited.
-
- * "git cvsimport" can now take more than one -M options.
-
- * "git describe" learned to limit the tags to be used for
- naming with --match option.
-
- * "git describe --contains" now barfs when the named commit
- cannot be described.
-
- * "git describe --exact-match" describes only commits that are tagged.
-
- * "git describe --long" describes a tagged commit as $tag-0-$sha1,
- instead of just showing the exact tagname.
-
- * "git describe" warns when using a tag whose name and path contradict
- with each other.
-
- * "git diff" learned "--relative" option to limit and output paths
- relative to the current directory when working in a subdirectory.
-
- * "git diff" learned "--dirstat" option to show birds-eye-summary of
- changes more concisely than "--diffstat".
-
- * "git format-patch" learned --cover-letter option to generate a cover
- letter template.
-
- * "git gc" learned --quiet option.
-
- * "git gc" now automatically prunes unreachable objects that are two
- weeks old or older.
-
- * "git gc --auto" can be disabled more easily by just setting gc.auto
- to zero. It also tolerates more packfiles by default.
-
- * "git grep" now knows "--name-only" is a synonym for the "-l" option.
-
- * "git help <alias>" now reports "'git <alias>' is alias to <what>",
- instead of saying "No manual entry for git-<alias>".
-
- * "git help" can use different backends to show manual pages and this can
- be configured using "man.viewer" configuration.
-
- * "gitk" does not restore window position from $HOME/.gitk anymore (it
- still restores the size).
-
- * "git log --grep=<what>" learned "--fixed-strings" option to look for
- <what> without treating it as a regular expression.
-
- * "git gui" learned an auto-spell checking.
-
- * "git push <somewhere> HEAD" and "git push <somewhere> +HEAD" works as
- expected; they push the current branch (and only the current branch).
- In addition, HEAD can be written as the value of "remote.<there>.push"
- configuration variable.
-
- * When the configuration variable "pack.threads" is set to 0, "git
- repack" auto detects the number of CPUs and uses that many threads.
-
- * "git send-email" learned to prompt for passwords
- interactively.
-
- * "git send-email" learned an easier way to suppress CC
- recipients.
-
- * "git stash" learned "pop" command, that applies the latest stash and
- removes it from the stash, and "drop" command to discard the named
- stash entry.
-
- * "git submodule" learned a new subcommand "summary" to show the
- symmetric difference between the HEAD version and the work tree version
- of the submodule commits.
-
- * Various "git cvsimport", "git cvsexportcommit", "git cvsserver",
- "git svn" and "git p4" improvements.
-
-(internal)
-
- * Duplicated code between git-help and git-instaweb that
- launches user's preferred browser has been refactored.
-
- * It is now easier to write test scripts that records known
- breakages.
-
- * "git checkout" is rewritten in C.
-
- * "git remote" is rewritten in C.
-
- * Two conflict hunks that are separated by a very short span of common
- lines are now coalesced into one larger hunk, to make the result easier
- to read.
-
- * Run-command API's use of file descriptors is documented clearer and
- is more consistent now.
-
- * diff output can be sent to FILE * that is different from stdout. This
- will help reimplementing more things in C.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.4
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.5.4 maintenance series are included in
-this release, unless otherwise noted.
-
- * "git-http-push" did not allow deletion of remote ref with the usual
- "push <remote> :<branch>" syntax.
-
- * "git-rebase --abort" did not go back to the right location if
- "git-reset" was run during the "git-rebase" session.
-
- * "git imap-send" without setting imap.host did not error out but
- segfaulted.

-GIT v1.5.6.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.6
-------------------
-
-* Last minute change broke loose object creation on AIX.
-
-* (performance fix) We used to make $GIT_DIR absolute path early in the
- programs but keeping it relative to the current directory internally
- gives 1-3 per-cent performance boost.
-
-* bash completion knows the new --graph option to git-log family.
-
-
-* git-diff -c/--cc showed unnecessary "deletion" lines at the context
- boundary.
-
-* git-for-each-ref ignored %(object) and %(type) requests for tag
- objects.
-
-* git-merge usage had a typo.
-
-* Rebuilding of git-svn metainfo database did not take rewriteRoot
- option into account.
-
-* Running "git-rebase --continue/--skip/--abort" before starting a
- rebase gave nonsense error messages.

-GIT v1.5.6.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Futureproof
------------
-
- * "git-shell" accepts requests without a dash between "git" and
- subcommand name (e.g. "git upload-pack") which the newer client will
- start to make sometime in the future.
-
-Fixes since v1.5.6.1
---------------------
-
-* "git clone" from a remote that is named with url.insteadOf setting in
- $HOME/.gitconfig did not work well.
-
-* "git describe --long --tags" segfaulted when the described revision was
- tagged with a lightweight tag.
-
-* "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status
- reliably.
-
-* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
- it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
- branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest
- pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
- of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.
-
-* "git reset file" should mean the same thing as "git reset HEAD file",
- but we required disambiguating -- even when "file" is not ambiguous.
-
-* "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another
- annotated tag was given to it.
-
-* Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a
- serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for
- moderately large import.
-
-* "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file
- unnecessarily.
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.5.6.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.6.2
---------------------
-
-* Setting core.sharedrepository to traditional "true" value was supposed to make
- the repository group writable but should not affect permission for others.
- However, since 1.5.6, it was broken to drop permission for others when umask is
- 022, making the repository unreadable by others.
-
-* Setting GIT_TRACE will report spawning of external process via run_command().
-
-* Using an object with very deep delta chain pinned memory needed for extracting
- intermediate base objects unnecessarily long, leading to excess memory usage.
-
-* Bash completion script did not notice '--' marker on the command
- line and tried the relatively slow "ref completion" even when
- completing arguments after one.
-
-* Registering a non-empty blob racily and then truncating the working
- tree file for it confused "racy-git avoidance" logic into thinking
- that the path is now unchanged.
-
-* The section that describes attributes related to git-archive were placed
- in a wrong place in the gitattributes(5) manual page.
-
-* "git am" was not helpful to the users when it detected that the committer
- information is not set up properly yet.
-
-* "git clone" had a leftover debugging fprintf().
-
-* "git clone -q" was not quiet enough as it used to and gave object count
- and progress reports.
-
-* "git clone" marked downloaded packfile with .keep; this could be a
- good thing if the remote side is well packed but otherwise not,
- especially for a project that is not really big.
-
-* "git daemon" used to call syslog() from a signal handler, which
- could raise signals of its own but generally is not reentrant. This
- was fixed by restructuring the code to report syslog() after the handler
- returns.
-
-* When "git push" tries to remove a remote ref, and corresponding
- tracking ref is missing, we used to report error (i.e. failure to
- remove something that does not exist).
-
-* "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") did not handle commit log messages in a
- MIME multipart mail correctly.
-
-Contains other various documentation fixes.

-GIT v1.5.6.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.5.6.3

-
-* Various commands could overflow its internal buffer on a platform
- with small PATH_MAX value in a repository that has contents with
- long pathnames.
-
-* There wasn't a way to make --pretty=format:%<> specifiers to honor
- .mailmap name rewriting for authors and committers. Now you can with
- %aN and %cN.
-
-* Bash completion wasted too many cycles; this has been optimized to be
- usable again.
-
-* Bash completion lost ref part when completing something like "git show
- pu:Makefile".
-
-* "git-cvsserver" did not clean up its temporary working area after annotate
- request.
-
-* "git-daemon" called syslog() from its signal handler, which was a
- no-no.
-
-* "git-fetch" into an empty repository used to remind that the fetch will
- be huge by saying "no common commits", but this was an unnecessary
- noise; it is already known by the user anyway.
-
-* "git-http-fetch" would have segfaulted when pack idx file retrieved
- from the other side was corrupt.
-
-* "git-index-pack" used too much memory when dealing with a deep delta chain.
-
-* "git-mailinfo" (hence "git-am") did not correctly handle in-body [PATCH]
- line to override the commit title taken from the mail Subject header.
-
-* "git-rebase -i -p" lost parents that are not involved in the history
- being rewritten.
-
-* "git-rm" lost track of where the index file was when GIT_DIR was
- specified as a relative path.
-
-* "git-rev-list --quiet" was not quiet as advertised.

- the manual pages. This means bookmarks to some HTML documentation
- files may need to be updated (eg "tutorial.html" became
- "gittutorial.html").
-
-(performance)
-
-* "git clone" was rewritten in C. This will hopefully help cloning a
- repository with insane number of refs.
-
-* "git rebase --onto $there $from $branch" used to switch to the tip of
- $branch only to immediately reset back to $from, smudging work tree
- files unnecessarily. This has been optimized.
-
-* Object creation codepath in "git-svn" has been optimized by enhancing
- plumbing commands git-cat-file and git-hash-object.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
-* "git add -p" (and the "patch" subcommand of "git add -i") can choose to
- apply (or not apply) mode changes independently from contents changes.
-
-* "git bisect help" gives longer and more helpful usage information.
-
-* "git bisect" does not use a special branch "bisect" anymore; instead, it
- does its work on a detached HEAD.
-
-* "git branch" (and "git checkout -b") can be told to set up
- branch.<name>.rebase automatically, so that later you can say "git pull"
- and magically cause "git pull --rebase" to happen.
-
-* "git branch --merged" and "git branch --no-merged" can be used to list
- branches that have already been merged (or not yet merged) to the
- current branch.
-
-* "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" can add a sign-off.
-
-* "git commit" mentions the author identity when you are committing
- somebody else's changes.
-
-* "git diff/log --dirstat" output is consistent between binary and textual
- changes.
-
-* "git filter-branch" rewrites signed tags by demoting them to annotated.
-
-* "git format-patch --no-binary" can produce a patch that lack binary
- changes (i.e. cannot be used to propagate the whole changes) meant only
- for reviewing.
-
-* "git init --bare" is a synonym for "git --bare init" now.
-
-* "git gc --auto" honors a new pre-auto-gc hook to temporarily disable it.
-
-* "git log --pretty=tformat:<custom format>" gives a LF after each entry,
- instead of giving a LF between each pair of entries which is how
- "git log --pretty=format:<custom format>" works.
-
-* "git log" and friends learned the "--graph" option to show the ancestry
- graph at the left margin of the output.
-
-* "git log" and friends can be told to use date format that is different
- from the default via 'log.date' configuration variable.
-
-* "git send-email" now can send out messages outside a git repository.
-
-* "git send-email --compose" was made aware of rfc2047 quoting.
-
-* "git status" can optionally include output from "git submodule
- summary".
-
-* "git svn" learned --add-author-from option to propagate the authorship
- by munging the commit log message.
-
-* new object creation and looking up in "git svn" has been optimized.
-
-* "gitweb" can read from a system-wide configuration file.
-
-(internal)
-
-* "git unpack-objects" and "git receive-pack" is now more strict about
- detecting breakage in the objects they receive over the wire.
-
-
-Fixes since v1.5.5
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.5.5 maintenance series are included in
-this release, unless otherwise noted.

-GIT v1.6.0.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.0
-------------------
-
-* "git diff --cc" did not honor content mangling specified by
- gitattributes and core.autocrlf when reading from the work tree.
-
-* "git diff --check" incorrectly detected new trailing blank lines when
- whitespace check was in effect.
-
-* "git for-each-ref" tried to dereference NULL when asked for '%(body)" on
- a tag with a single incomplete line as its payload.
-
-* "git format-patch" peeked before the beginning of a string when
- "format.headers" variable is empty (a misconfiguration).
-
-* "git help help" did not work correctly.
-
-* "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") was unhappy when MIME multipart message
- contained garbage after the finishing boundary.
-
-* "git mailinfo" also was unhappy when the "From: " line only had a bare
- e-mail address.
-
-* "git merge" did not refresh the index correctly when a merge resulted in
- a fast-forward.
-
-* "git merge" did not resolve a truly trivial merges that can be done
- without content level merges.

-GIT v1.6.0.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.0.1
---------------------
-
-* Installation on platforms that needs .exe suffix to git-* programs were
- broken in 1.6.0.1.
-
-* Installation on filesystems without symbolic links support did not
- work well.
-
-* In-tree documentations and test scripts now use "git foo" form to set a
- better example, instead of the "git-foo" form (which is an acceptable
- form if you have "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH" in your script)
-
-* Many commands did not use the correct working tree location when used
- with GIT_WORK_TREE environment settings.
-
-* Some systems need to use compatibility fnmatch and regex libraries
- independent from each other; the compat/ area has been reorganized to
- allow this.
-
-
-* "git apply --unidiff-zero" incorrectly applied a -U0 patch that inserts
- a new line before the second line.
-
-* "git blame -c" did not exactly work like "git annotate" when range
- boundaries are involved.
-
-* "git checkout file" when file is still unmerged checked out contents from
- a random high order stage, which was confusing.
-
-* "git clone $there $here/" with extra trailing slashes after explicit
- local directory name $here did not work as expected.
-
-* "git diff" on tracked contents with CRLF line endings did not drive "less"
- intelligently when showing added or removed lines.
-
-* "git diff --dirstat -M" did not add changes in subdirectories up
- correctly for renamed paths.
-
-* "git diff --cumulative" did not imply "--dirstat".
-
-* "git for-each-ref refs/heads/" did not work as expected.
-
-* "git gui" allowed users to feed patch without any context to be applied.
-
-* "git gui" botched parsing "diff" output when a line that begins with two
- dashes and a space gets removed or a line that begins with two pluses
- and a space gets added.
-
-* "git gui" translation updates and i18n fixes.
-
-* "git index-pack" is more careful against disk corruption while completing
- a thin pack.
-
-* "git log -i --grep=pattern" did not ignore case; neither "git log -E
- --grep=pattern" triggered extended regexp.
-
-* "git log --pretty="%ad" --date=short" did not use short format when
- showing the timestamp.
-
-* "git log --author=author" match incorrectly matched with the
- timestamp part of "author " line in commit objects.
-
-* "git log -F --author=author" did not work at all.
-
-* Build procedure for "git shell" that used stub versions of some
- functions and globals was not understood by linkers on some platforms.
-
-* "git stash" was fooled by a stat-dirty but otherwise unmodified paths
- and refused to work until the user refreshed the index.
-
-* "git svn" was broken on Perl before 5.8 with recent fixes to reduce
- use of temporary files.
-
-* "git verify-pack -v" did not work correctly when given more than one
- packfile.
-
-Also contains many documentation updates.

-GIT v1.6.0.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.0.2
---------------------
-
-* "git archive --format=zip" did not honor core.autocrlf while
- --format=tar did.
-
-* Continuing "git rebase -i" was very confused when the user left modified
- files in the working tree while resolving conflicts.
-
-* Continuing "git rebase -i" was also very confused when the user left
- some staged changes in the index after "edit".
-
-* "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 stash apply" now offers a better suggestion on how to continue
- if the working tree is currently dirty.
-
-* "git for-each-ref --format=%(subject)" fixed for commits with no
- no newline in the message body.
-
-* "git remote" fixed to protect printf from user input.
-
-* "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
- progress messages, actually making their output quiet.
-
-* Cross-directory renames are no longer used when creating packs. This
- allows more graceful behavior on filesystems like sshfs.
-
-* Stale temporary files under $GIT_DIR/objects/pack are now cleaned up
- automatically by "git prune".
-
-* "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.
-
-* "git submodule" fixed to handle checking out a different commit
- than HEAD after initializing the submodule.
-
-* 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 8 does not define NEEDS_LIBICONV by default.
-
-* "Git.pm" tests relied on unnecessarily more recent version of Perl.
-
-* "gitweb" triggered undef warning on commits without log messages.
-
-* "gitweb" triggered undef warnings on missing trees.
-
-* "gitweb" now removes PATH_INFO from its URLs so users don't have
- to manually set the URL in the gitweb configuration.
-
-* Bash completion removed support for legacy "git-fetch", "git-push"
- and "git-pull" as these are no longer installed. Dashless form
- ("git fetch") is still however supported.
-
-Many other documentation updates.

-GIT v1.6.0.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.0.3
---------------------
-
-* 'git add -p' said "No changes" when only binary files were changed.
-
-* 'git archive' did not work correctly in bare repositories.
-
-* 'git checkout -t -b newbranch' when you are on detached HEAD was broken.
-
-* when we refuse to detect renames because there are too many new or
- deleted files, 'git diff' did not say how many there are.
-
-* 'git push --mirror' tried and failed to push the stash; there is no
- point in sending it to begin with.
-
-* 'git push' did not update the remote tracking reference if the corresponding
- ref on the remote end happened to be already up to date.
-
-* 'git pull $there $branch:$current_branch' did not work when you were on
- a branch yet to be born.
-
-* when giving up resolving a conflicted merge, 'git reset --hard' failed
- to remove new paths from the working tree.
-
-* 'git send-email' had a small fd leak while scanning directory.
-
-* 'git status' incorrectly reported a submodule directory as an untracked
- directory.
-
-* 'git svn' used deprecated 'git-foo' form of subcommand invocation.
-
-* 'git update-ref -d' to remove a reference did not honor --no-deref option.
-
-* Plugged small memleaks here and there.
-
-* Also contains many documentation updates.
+++ /dev/null
-GIT v1.6.0.5 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.0.4
---------------------
-
-* "git checkout" used to crash when your HEAD was pointing at a deleted
- branch.
-
-* "git checkout" from an un-checked-out state did not allow switching out
- of the current branch.
-
-* "git diff" always allowed GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF and --no-ext-diff was no-op for
- the command.
-
-* Giving 3 or more tree-ish to "git diff" is supposed to show the combined
- diff from second and subsequent trees to the first one, but the order was
- screwed up.
-
-* "git fast-export" did not export all tags.
-
-* "git ls-files --with-tree=<tree>" did not work with options other
- than -c, most notably with -m.
-
-* "git pack-objects" did not make its best effort to honor --max-pack-size
- option when a single first object already busted the given limit and
- placed many objects in a single pack.
-
-* "git-p4" fast import frontend was too eager to trigger its keyword expansion
- logic, even on a keyword-looking string that does not have closing '$' on the
- same line.
-
-* "git push $there" when the remote $there is defined in $GIT_DIR/branches/$there
- behaves more like what cg-push from Cogito used to work.
-
-* when giving up resolving a conflicted merge, "git reset --hard" failed
- to remove new paths from the working tree.
-
-* "git tag" did not complain when given mutually incompatible set of options.
-
-* The message constructed in the internal editor was discarded when "git
- tag -s" failed to sign the message, which was often caused by the user
- not configuring GPG correctly.
-
-* "make check" cannot be run without sparse; people may have meant to say
- "make test" instead, so suggest that.
-
-* Internal diff machinery had a corner case performance bug that choked on
- a large file with many repeated contents.
-
-* "git repack" used to grab objects out of packs marked with .keep
- into a new pack.
-
-* Many unsafe call to sprintf() style varargs functions are corrected.
-
-* Also contains quite a few documentation updates.

-GIT v1.6.0.6 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since 1.6.0.5
--------------------
-
- * "git fsck" had a deep recursion that wasted stack space.
-
- * "git fast-export" and "git fast-import" choked on an old style
- annotated tag that lack the tagger information.
-
- * "git mergetool -- file" did not correctly skip "--" marker that
- signals the end of options list.
-
- * "git show $tag" segfaulted when an annotated $tag pointed at a
- nonexistent object.
-
- * "git show 2>error" when the standard output is automatically redirected
- to the pager redirected the standard error to the pager as well; there
- was no need to.
-
- * "git send-email" did not correctly handle list of addresses when
- they had quoted comma (e.g. "Lastname, Givenname" <mail@addre.ss>).
-
- * Logic to discover branch ancestry in "git svn" was unreliable when
- the process to fetch history was interrupted.
-
- * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose
- implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing,
- which would have run an external diff command specified in the
- repository configuration as the gitweb user.
-
-Also contains numerous documentation typofixes.

-GIT v1.6.0 Release Notes
-========================
-
-User visible changes
---------------------
-
-With the default Makefile settings, most of the programs are now
-installed outside your $PATH, except for "git", "gitk" and
-some server side programs that need to be accessible for technical
-reasons. Invoking a git subcommand as "git-xyzzy" from the command
-line has been deprecated since early 2006 (and officially announced in
-1.5.4 release notes); use of them from your scripts after adding
-output from "git --exec-path" to the $PATH is still supported in this
-release, but users are again strongly encouraged to adjust their
-scripts to use "git xyzzy" form, as we will stop installing
-"git-xyzzy" hardlinks for built-in commands in later releases.
-
-An earlier change to page "git status" output was overwhelmingly unpopular
-and has been reverted.
-
-Source changes needed for porting to MinGW environment are now all in the
-main git.git codebase.
-
-By default, packfiles created with this version uses delta-base-offset
-encoding introduced in v1.4.4. Pack idx files are using version 2 that
-allows larger packs and added robustness thanks to its CRC checking,
-introduced in v1.5.2 and v1.4.4.5. If you want to keep your repositories
-backwards compatible past these versions, set repack.useDeltaBaseOffset
-to false or pack.indexVersion to 1, respectively.
-
-We used to prevent sample hook scripts shipped in templates/ from
-triggering by default by relying on the fact that we install them as
-unexecutable, but on some filesystems, this approach does not work.
-They are now shipped with ".sample" suffix. If you want to activate
-any of these samples as-is, rename them to drop the ".sample" suffix,
-instead of running "chmod +x" on them. For example, you can rename
-hooks/post-update.sample to hooks/post-update to enable the sample
-hook that runs update-server-info, in order to make repositories
-friendly to dumb protocols (i.e. HTTP).
-
-GIT_CONFIG, which was only documented as affecting "git config", but
-actually affected all git commands, now only affects "git config".
-GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, also only documented as affecting "git config" and
-not different from GIT_CONFIG in a useful way, is removed.
-
-The ".dotest" temporary area "git am" and "git rebase" use is now moved
-inside the $GIT_DIR, to avoid mistakes of adding it to the project by
-accident.
-
-An ancient merge strategy "stupid" has been removed.
-
-
-Updates since v1.5.6
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
-* git-p4 in contrib learned "allowSubmit" configuration to control on
- which branch to allow "submit" subcommand.
-
-* git-gui learned to stage changes per-line.
-
-(portability)
-
-* Changes for MinGW port have been merged, thanks to Johannes Sixt and
- gangs.
-
-* Sample hook scripts shipped in templates/ are now suffixed with
- *.sample.
-
-* perl's in-place edit (-i) does not work well without backup files on Windows;
- some tests are rewritten to cope with this.
-
-(documentation)
-
-* Updated howto/update-hook-example
-
-* Got rid of usage of "git-foo" from the tutorial and made typography
- more consistent.
-
-* Disambiguating "--" between revs and paths is finally documented.
-
-(performance, robustness, sanity etc.)
-
-* index-pack used too much memory when dealing with a deep delta chain.
- This has been optimized.
-
-* reduced excessive inlining to shrink size of the "git" binary.
-
-* verify-pack checks the object CRC when using version 2 idx files.
-
-* When an object is corrupt in a pack, the object became unusable even
- when the same object is available in a loose form, We now try harder to
- fall back to these redundant objects when able. In particular, "git
- repack -a -f" can be used to fix such a corruption as long as necessary
- objects are available.
-
-* Performance of "git-blame -C -C" operation is vastly improved.
-
-* git-clone does not create refs in loose form anymore (it behaves as
- if you immediately ran git-pack-refs after cloning). This will help
- repositories with insanely large number of refs.
-
-* core.fsyncobjectfiles configuration can be used to ensure that the loose
- objects created will be fsync'ed (this is only useful on filesystems
- that does not order data writes properly).
-
-* "git commit-tree" plumbing can make Octopus with more than 16 parents.
- "git commit" has been capable of this for quite some time.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
-* even more documentation pages are now accessible via "man" and "git help".
-
-* A new environment variable GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES can be used to stop
- the discovery process of the toplevel of working tree; this may be useful
- when you are working in a slow network disk and are outside any working tree,
- as bash-completion and "git help" may still need to run in these places.
-
-* By default, stash entries never expire. Set reflogexpire in [gc
- "refs/stash"] to a reasonable value to get traditional auto-expiration
- behaviour back
-
-* Longstanding latency issue with bash completion script has been
- addressed. This will need to be backmerged to 'maint' later.
-
-* pager.<cmd> configuration variable can be used to enable/disable the
- default paging behaviour per command.
-
-* "git-add -i" has a new action 'e/dit' to allow you edit the patch hunk
- manually.
-
-* git-am records the original tip of the branch in ORIG_HEAD before it
- starts applying patches.
-
-* git-apply can handle a patch that touches the same path more than once
- much better than before.
-
-* git-apply can be told not to trust the line counts recorded in the input
- patch but recount, with the new --recount option.
-
-* git-apply can be told to apply a patch to a path deeper than what the
- patch records with --directory option.
-
-* git-archive can be told to omit certain paths from its output using
- export-ignore attributes.
-
-* git-archive uses the zlib default compression level when creating
- zip archive.
-
-* git-archive's command line options --exec and --remote can take their
- parameters as separate command line arguments, similar to other commands.
- IOW, both "--exec=path" and "--exec path" are now supported.
-
-* With -v option, git-branch describes the remote tracking statistics
- similar to the way git-checkout reports by how many commits your branch
- is ahead/behind.
-
-* git-branch's --contains option used to always require a commit parameter
- to limit the branches with; it now defaults to list branches that
- contains HEAD if this parameter is omitted.
-
-* git-branch's --merged and --no-merged option used to always limit the
- branches relative to the HEAD, but they can now take an optional commit
- argument that is used in place of HEAD.
-
-* git-bundle can read the revision arguments from the standard input.
-
-* git-cherry-pick can replay a root commit now.
-
-* git-clone can clone from a remote whose URL would be rewritten by
- configuration stored in $HOME/.gitconfig now.
-
-* "git-clone --mirror" is a handy way to set up a bare mirror repository.
-
-* git-cvsserver learned to respond to "cvs co -c".
-
-* git-diff --check now checks leftover merge conflict markers.
-
-* "git-diff -p" learned to grab a better hunk header lines in
- BibTex, Pascal/Delphi, and Ruby files and also pays attention to
- chapter and part boundary in TeX documents.
-
-* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
- it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
- branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest
- pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
- of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.
-
-* fast-export learned to export and import marks file; this can be used to
- interface with fast-import incrementally.
-
-* fast-import and fast-export learned to export and import gitlinks.
-
-* "gitk" left background process behind after being asked to dig very deep
- history and the user killed the UI; the process is killed when the UI goes
- away now.
-
-* git-rebase records the original tip of branch in ORIG_HEAD before it is
- rewound.
-
-* "git rerere" can be told to update the index with auto-reused resolution
- with rerere.autoupdate configuration variable.
-
-* git-rev-parse learned $commit^! and $commit^@ notations used in "log"
- family. These notations are available in gitk as well, because the gitk
- command internally uses rev-parse to interpret its arguments.
-
-* git-rev-list learned --children option to show child commits it
- encountered during the traversal, instead of showing parent commits.
-
-* git-send-mail can talk not just over SSL but over TLS now.
-
-* git-shortlog honors custom output format specified with "--pretty=format:".
-
-* "git-stash save" learned --keep-index option. This lets you stash away the
- local changes and bring the changes staged in the index to your working
- tree for examination and testing.
-
-* git-stash also learned branch subcommand to create a new branch out of
- stashed changes.
-
-* git-status gives the remote tracking statistics similar to the way
- git-checkout reports by how many commits your branch is ahead/behind.
-
-* "git-svn dcommit" is now aware of auto-props setting the subversion user
- has.
-
-* You can tell "git status -u" to even more aggressively omit checking
- untracked files with --untracked-files=no.
-
-* Original SHA-1 value for "update-ref -d" is optional now.
-
-* Error codes from gitweb are made more descriptive where possible, rather
- than "403 forbidden" as we used to issue everywhere.
-
-(internal)
-
-* git-merge has been reimplemented in C.
-
-
-Fixes since v1.5.6
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.5.6 maintenance series are included in
-this release, unless otherwise noted.
-
- * git-clone ignored its -u option; the fix needs to be backported to
- 'maint';
-
- * git-mv used to lose the distinction between changes that are staged
- and that are only in the working tree, by staging both in the index
- after moving such a path.
-
- * "git-rebase -i -p" rewrote the parents to wrong ones when amending
- (either edit or squash) was involved, and did not work correctly
- when fast forwarding.

-------------------
-
-* "git add frotz/nitfol" when "frotz" is a submodule should have errored
- out, but it didn't.
-
-* "git apply" took file modes from the patch text and updated the mode
- bits of the target tree even when the patch was not about mode changes.
-
-* "git bisect view" on Cygwin did not launch gitk
-
-* "git checkout $tree" did not trigger an error.
-
-* "git commit" tried to remove COMMIT_EDITMSG from the work tree by mistake.
-
-* "git describe --all" complained when a commit is described with a tag,
- which was nonsense.
-
-* "git diff --no-index --" did not trigger no-index (aka "use git-diff as
- a replacement of diff on untracked files") behaviour.
-
-* "git format-patch -1 HEAD" on a root commit failed to produce patch
- text.
-
-* "git fsck branch" did not work as advertised; instead it behaved the same
- way as "git fsck".
-
-* "git log --pretty=format:%s" did not handle a multi-line subject the
- same way as built-in log listers (i.e. shortlog, --pretty=oneline, etc.)
-
-* "git daemon", and "git merge-file" are more careful when freopen fails
- and barf, instead of going on and writing to unopened filehandle.
-
-* "git http-push" did not like some RFC 4918 compliant DAV server
- responses.
-
-* "git merge -s recursive" mistakenly overwritten an untracked file in the
- work tree upon delete/modify conflict.
-
-* "git merge -s recursive" didn't leave the index unmerged for entries with
- rename/delete conflicts.
-
-* "git merge -s recursive" clobbered untracked files in the work tree.
-
-* "git mv -k" with more than one erroneous paths misbehaved.
-
-* "git read-tree -m -u" hence branch switching incorrectly lost a
- subdirectory in rare cases.
-
-* "git rebase -i" issued an unnecessary error message upon a user error of
- marking the first commit to be "squash"ed.
-
-* "git shortlog" did not format a commit message with multi-line
- subject correctly.
-
-Many documentation updates.

-GIT v1.6.1.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.1.1
---------------------
-
-* The logic for rename detection in internal diff used by commands like
- "git diff" and "git blame" has been optimized to avoid loading the same
- blob repeatedly.
-
-* We did not allow writing out a blob that is larger than 2GB for no good
- reason.
-
-* "git format-patch -o $dir", when $dir is a relative directory, used it
- as relative to the root of the work tree, not relative to the current
- directory.
-
-* v1.6.1 introduced an optimization for "git push" into a repository (A)
- that borrows its objects from another repository (B) to avoid sending
- objects that are available in repository B, when they are not yet used
- by repository A. However the code on the "git push" sender side was
- buggy and did not work when repository B had new objects that are not
- known by the sender. This caused pushing into a "forked" repository
- served by v1.6.1 software using "git push" from v1.6.1 sometimes did not
- work. The bug was purely on the "git push" sender side, and has been
- corrected.
-
-* "git status -v" did not paint its diff output in colour even when
- color.ui configuration was set.
-
-* "git ls-tree" learned --full-tree option to help Porcelain scripts that
- want to always see the full path regardless of the current working
- directory.
-
-* "git grep" incorrectly searched in work tree paths even when they are
- marked as assume-unchanged. It now searches in the index entries.
-
-* "git gc" with no grace period needlessly ejected packed but unreachable
- objects in their loose form, only to delete them right away.

-GIT v1.6.1.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.1.2
---------------------
-
-* "git diff --binary | git apply" pipeline did not work well when
- a binary blob is changed to a symbolic link.
-
-* Some combinations of -b/-w/--ignore-space-at-eol to "git diff" did
- not work as expected.
-
-* "git grep" did not pass the -I (ignore binary) option when
- calling out an external grep program.
-
-* "git log" and friends include HEAD to the set of starting points
- when --all is given. This makes a difference when you are not
- on any branch.
-
-* "git mv" to move an untracked file to overwrite a tracked
- contents misbehaved.
-
-* "git merge -s octopus" with many potential merge bases did not
- work correctly.
-
-* RPM binary package installed the html manpages in a wrong place.
-
-Also includes minor documentation fixes and updates.

-GIT v1.6.1.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.1.3
---------------------
-
-* .gitignore learned to handle backslash as a quoting mechanism for
- comment introduction character "#".
- This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.1.
-
-* "git fast-export" produced wrong output with some parents missing from
- commits, when the history is clock-skewed.
-
-* "git fast-import" sometimes failed to read back objects it just wrote
- out and aborted, because it failed to flush stale cached data.
-
-* "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when
- deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the
- individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match
- "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/",
- and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't).
- This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.3.
-
-* import-zips script (in contrib) did not compute the common directory
- prefix correctly.
- This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.2.
-
-* "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via
- the --template= option.
- This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.4.
-
-* "git repack" did not error out when necessary object was missing in the
- repository.
-
-* git-repack (invoked from git-gc) did not work as nicely as it should in
- a repository that borrows objects from neighbours via alternates
- mechanism especially when some packs are marked with the ".keep" flag
- to prevent them from being repacked.
- This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.3.

-GIT v1.6.1 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Updates since v1.6.0
---------------------
-
-When some commands (e.g. "git log", "git diff") spawn pager internally, we
-used to make the pager the parent process of the git command that produces
-output. This meant that the exit status of the whole thing comes from the
-pager, not the underlying git command. We swapped the order of the
-processes around and you will see the exit code from the command from now
-on.
-
-(subsystems)
-
-* gitk can call out to git-gui to view "git blame" output; git-gui in turn
- can run gitk from its blame view.
-
-* Various git-gui updates including updated translations.
-
-* Various gitweb updates from repo.or.cz installation.
-
-* Updates to emacs bindings.
-
-(portability)
-
-* A few test scripts used nonportable "grep" that did not work well on
- some platforms, e.g. Solaris.
-
-* Sample pre-auto-gc script has OS X support.
-
-* Makefile has support for (ancient) FreeBSD 4.9.
-
-(performance)
-
-* Many operations that are lstat(3) heavy can be told to pre-execute
- necessary lstat(3) in parallel before their main operations, which
- potentially gives much improved performance for cold-cache cases or in
- environments with weak metadata caching (e.g. NFS).
-
-* The underlying diff machinery to produce textual output has been
- optimized, which would result in faster "git blame" processing.
-
-* Most of the test scripts (but not the ones that try to run servers)
- can be run in parallel.
-
-* Bash completion of refnames in a repository with massive number of
- refs has been optimized.
-
-* Cygwin port uses native stat/lstat implementations when applicable,
- which leads to improved performance.
-
-* "git push" pays attention to alternate repositories to avoid sending
- unnecessary objects.
-
-* "git svn" can rebuild an out-of-date rev_map file.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
-* When you mistype a command name, git helpfully suggests what it guesses
- you might have meant to say. help.autocorrect configuration can be set
- to a non-zero value to accept the suggestion when git can uniquely
- guess.
-
-* The packfile machinery hopefully is more robust when dealing with
- corrupt packs if redundant objects involved in the corruption are
- available elsewhere.
-
-* "git add -N path..." adds the named paths as an empty blob, so that
- subsequent "git diff" will show a diff as if they are creation events.
-
-* "git add" gained a built-in synonym for people who want to say "stage
- changes" instead of "add contents to the staging area" which amounts
- to the same thing.
-
-* "git apply" learned --include=paths option, similar to the existing
- --exclude=paths option.
-
-* "git bisect" is careful about a user mistake and suggests testing of
- merge base first when good is not a strict ancestor of bad.
-
-* "git bisect skip" can take a range of commits.
-
-* "git blame" re-encodes the commit metainfo to UTF-8 from i18n.commitEncoding
- by default.
-
-* "git check-attr --stdin" can check attributes for multiple paths.
-
-* "git checkout --track origin/hack" used to be a syntax error. It now
- DWIMs to create a corresponding local branch "hack", i.e. acts as if you
- said "git checkout --track -b hack origin/hack".
-
-* "git checkout --ours/--theirs" can be used to check out one side of a
- conflicting merge during conflict resolution.
-
-* "git checkout -m" can be used to recreate the initial conflicted state
- during conflict resolution.
-
-* "git cherry-pick" can also utilize rerere for conflict resolution.
-
-* "git clone" learned to be verbose with -v
-
-* "git commit --author=$name" can look up author name from existing
- commits.
-
-* output from "git commit" has been reworded in a more concise and yet
- more informative way.
-
-* "git count-objects" reports the on-disk footprint for packfiles and
- their corresponding idx files.
-
-* "git daemon" learned --max-connections=<count> option.
-
-* "git daemon" exports REMOTE_ADDR to record client address, so that
- spawned programs can act differently on it.
-
-* "git describe --tags" favours closer lightweight tags than farther
- annotated tags now.
-
-* "git diff" learned to mimic --suppress-blank-empty from GNU diff via a
- configuration option.
-
-* "git diff" learned to put more sensible hunk headers for Python,
- HTML and ObjC contents.
-
-* "git diff" learned to vary the a/ vs b/ prefix depending on what are
- being compared, controlled by diff.mnemonicprefix configuration.
-
-* "git diff" learned --dirstat-by-file to count changed files, not number
- of lines, when summarizing the global picture.
-
-* "git diff" learned "textconv" filters --- a binary or hard-to-read
- contents can be munged into human readable form and the difference
- between the results of the conversion can be viewed (obviously this
- cannot produce a patch that can be applied, so this is disabled in
- format-patch among other things).
-
-* "--cached" option to "git diff has an easier to remember synonym "--staged",
- to ask "what is the difference between the given commit and the
- contents staged in the index?"
-
-* "git for-each-ref" learned "refname:short" token that gives an
- unambiguously abbreviated refname.
-
-* Auto-numbering of the subject lines is the default for "git
- format-patch" now.
-
-* "git grep" learned to accept -z similar to GNU grep.
-
-* "git help" learned to use GIT_MAN_VIEWER environment variable before
- using "man" program.
-
-* "git imap-send" can optionally talk SSL.
-
-* "git index-pack" is more careful against disk corruption while
- completing a thin pack.
-
-* "git log --check" and "git log --exit-code" passes their underlying diff
- status with their exit status code.
-
-* "git log" learned --simplify-merges, a milder variant of --full-history;
- "gitk --simplify-merges" is easier to view than with --full-history.
-
-* "git log" learned "--source" to show what ref each commit was reached
- from.
-
-* "git log" also learned "--simplify-by-decoration" to show the
- birds-eye-view of the topology of the history.
-
-* "git log --pretty=format:" learned "%d" format element that inserts
- names of tags that point at the commit.
-
-* "git merge --squash" and "git merge --no-ff" into an unborn branch are
- noticed as user errors.
-
-* "git merge -s $strategy" can use a custom built strategy if you have a
- command "git-merge-$strategy" on your $PATH.
-
-* "git pull" (and "git fetch") can be told to operate "-v"erbosely or
- "-q"uietly.
-
-* "git push" can be told to reject deletion of refs with receive.denyDeletes
- configuration.
-
-* "git rebase" honours pre-rebase hook; use --no-verify to bypass it.
-
-* "git rebase -p" uses interactive rebase machinery now to preserve the merges.
-
-* "git reflog expire branch" can be used in place of "git reflog expire
- refs/heads/branch".
-
-* "git remote show $remote" lists remote branches one-per-line now.
-
-* "git send-email" can be given revision range instead of files and
- maildirs on the command line, and automatically runs format-patch to
- generate patches for the given revision range.
-
-* "git submodule foreach" subcommand allows you to iterate over checked
- out submodules.
-
-* "git submodule sync" subcommands allows you to update the origin URL
- recorded in submodule directories from the toplevel .gitmodules file.
-
-* "git svn branch" can create new branches on the other end.
-
-* "gitweb" can use more saner PATH_INFO based URL.
-
-(internal)
-
-* "git hash-object" learned to lie about the path being hashed, so that
- correct gitattributes processing can be done while hashing contents
- stored in a temporary file.
-
-* various callers of git-merge-recursive avoid forking it as an external
- process.
-
-* Git class defined in "Git.pm" can be subclasses a bit more easily.
-
-* We used to link GNU regex library as a compatibility layer for some
- platforms, but it turns out it is not necessary on most of them.
-
-* Some path handling routines used fixed number of buffers used alternately
- but depending on the call depth, this arrangement led to hard to track
- bugs. This issue is being addressed.
-
-
-Fixes since v1.6.0
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.6.0.X maintenance series are included in this
-release, unless otherwise noted.
-
-* Porcelains implemented as shell scripts were utterly confused when you
- entered to a subdirectory of a work tree from sideways, following a
- symbolic link (this may need to be backported to older releases later).
-
-* Tracking symbolic links would work better on filesystems whose lstat()
- returns incorrect st_size value for them.
-
-* "git add" and "git update-index" incorrectly allowed adding S/F when S
- is a tracked symlink that points at a directory D that has a path F in
- it (we still need to fix a similar nonsense when S is a submodule and F
- is a path in it).
-
-* "git am" after stopping at a broken patch lost --whitespace, -C, -p and
- --3way options given from the command line initially.
-
-* "git diff --stdin" used to take two trees on a line and compared them,
- but we dropped support for such a use case long time ago. This has
- been resurrected.
-
-* "git filter-branch" failed to rewrite a tag name with slashes in it.
-
-* "git http-push" did not understand URI scheme other than opaquelocktoken
- when acquiring a lock from the server (this may need to be backported to
- older releases later).
-
-* After "git rebase -p" stopped with conflicts while replaying a merge,
- "git rebase --continue" did not work (may need to be backported to older
- releases).
-
-* "git revert" records relative to which parent a revert was made when
- reverting a merge. Together with new documentation that explains issues
- around reverting a merge and merging from the updated branch later, this
- hopefully will reduce user confusion (this may need to be backported to
- older releases later).
-
-* "git rm --cached" used to allow an empty blob that was added earlier to
- be removed without --force, even when the file in the work tree has
- since been modified.
-
-* "git push --tags --all $there" failed with generic usage message without
- telling saying these two options are incompatible.
-
-* "git log --author/--committer" match used to potentially match the
- timestamp part, exposing internal implementation detail. Also these did
- not work with --fixed-strings match at all.
-
-* "gitweb" did not mark non-ASCII characters imported from external HTML fragments
- correctly.

-
-* A longstanding confusing description of what --pickaxe option of
- git-diff does has been clarified in the documentation.
-
-* "git-blame -S" did not quite work near the commits that were given
- on the command line correctly.
-
-* "git diff --pickaxe-regexp" did not count overlapping matches
- correctly.
-
-* "git diff" did not feed files in work-tree representation to external
- diff and textconv.
-
-* "git-fetch" in a repository that was not cloned from anywhere said
- it cannot find 'origin', which was hard to understand for new people.
-
-* "git-format-patch --numbered-files --stdout" did not have to die of
- incompatible options; it now simply ignores --numbered-files as no files
- are produced anyway.
-
-* "git-ls-files --deleted" did not work well with GIT_DIR&GIT_WORK_TREE.
-
-* "git-read-tree A B C..." without -m option has been broken for a long
- time.
-
-* git-send-email ignored --in-reply-to when --no-thread was given.
-
-* 'git-submodule add' did not tolerate extra slashes and ./ in the path it
- accepted from the command line; it now is more lenient.
-
-* git-svn misbehaved when the project contained a path that began with
- two dashes.
-
-* import-zips script (in contrib) did not compute the common directory
- prefix correctly.
-
-* miscompilation of negated enum constants by old gcc (2.9) affected the
- codepaths to spawn subprocesses.

-Many small documentation updates are included as well.

- advertised.
-
-* A fairly large and trivial memory leak while rev-list shows list of
- reachable objects has been identified and plugged.
-
-* "git-commit --interactive" did not abort when underlying "git-add -i"
- signaled a failure.
-
-* git-repack (invoked from git-gc) did not work as nicely as it should in
- a repository that borrows objects from neighbours via alternates

-
-Fixes since v1.6.2.3
---------------------
-
-* The configuration parser had a buffer overflow while parsing an overlong
- value.
-
-* pruning reflog entries that are unreachable from the tip of the ref
- during "git reflog prune" (hence "git gc") was very inefficient.
-
-* "git-add -p" lacked a way to say "q"uit to refuse staging any hunks for
- the remaining paths. You had to say "d" and then ^C.
-
-* "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at
- the named path; it now does.
-
-* "git-fast-export" choked when seeing a tag that does not point at commit.
-
-* "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via
- the --template= option.
-
-* "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when
- deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the
- individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match
- "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/",
- and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't).
-
-* "git-merge-recursive" was broken when a submodule entry was involved in
- a criss-cross merge situation.
-
-Many small documentation updates are included as well.

-GIT v1.6.2 Release Notes
-========================
-
-With the next major release, "git push" into a branch that is
-currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose
-what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration
-variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository.
-
-To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
-push running this release will issue a big warning when the
-configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
-
- http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
- http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
-
-for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
-transition plan.
-
-For a similar reason, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch
-$killed in a remote repository $there, if $killed branch is the current
-branch pointed at by its HEAD, gets a large warning. You can choose what
-should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable
-receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository.

-Updates since v1.6.1
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
-* git-svn updates.
-
-* gitweb updates, including a new patch view and RSS/Atom feed
- improvements.
-
-* (contrib/emacs) git.el now has commands for checking out a branch,
- creating a branch, cherry-picking and reverting commits; vc-git.el
- is not shipped with git anymore (it is part of official Emacs).
-
-(performance)
-
-* pack-objects autodetects the number of CPUs available and uses threaded
- version.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
-* automatic typo correction works on aliases as well
-
-* @{-1} is a way to refer to the last branch you were on. This is
- accepted not only where an object name is expected, but anywhere
- a branch name is expected and acts as if you typed the branch name.
- E.g. "git branch --track mybranch @{-1}", "git merge @{-1}", and
- "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name @{-1}" would work as expected.
-
-* When refs/remotes/origin/HEAD points at a remote tracking branch that
- has been pruned away, many git operations issued warning when they
- internally enumerated the refs. We now warn only when you say "origin"
- to refer to that pruned branch.
-
-* The location of .mailmap file can be configured, and its file format was
- enhanced to allow mapping an incorrect e-mail field as well.
-
-* "git add -p" learned 'g'oto action to jump directly to a hunk.
-
-* "git add -p" learned to find a hunk with given text with '/'.
-
-* "git add -p" optionally can be told to work with just the command letter
- without Enter.
-
-* when "git am" stops upon a patch that does not apply, it shows the
- title of the offending patch.
-
-* "git am --directory=<dir>" and "git am --reject" passes these options
- to underlying "git apply".
-
-* "git am" learned --ignore-date option.
-
-* "git blame" aligns author names better when they are spelled in
- non US-ASCII encoding.
-
-* "git clone" now makes its best effort when cloning from an empty
- repository to set up configuration variables to refer to the remote
- repository.
-
-* "git checkout -" is a shorthand for "git checkout @{-1}".
-
-* "git cherry" defaults to whatever the current branch is tracking (if
- exists) when the <upstream> argument is not given.
-
-* "git cvsserver" can be told not to add extra "via git-CVS emulator" to
- the commit log message it serves via gitcvs.commitmsgannotation
- configuration.
-
-* "git cvsserver" learned to handle 'noop' command some CVS clients seem
- to expect to work.
-
-* "git diff" learned a new option --inter-hunk-context to coalesce close
- hunks together and show context between them.
-
-* The definition of what constitutes a word for "git diff --color-words"
- can be customized via gitattributes, command line or a configuration.
-
-* "git diff" learned --patience to run "patience diff" algorithm.
-
-* "git filter-branch" learned --prune-empty option that discards commits
- that do not change the contents.
-
-* "git fsck" now checks loose objects in alternate object stores, instead
- of misreporting them as missing.
-
-* "git gc --prune" was resurrected to allow "git gc --no-prune" and
- giving non-default expiration period e.g. "git gc --prune=now".
-
-* "git grep -w" and "git grep" for fixed strings have been optimized.
-
-* "git mergetool" learned -y(--no-prompt) option to disable prompting.
-
-* "git rebase -i" can transplant a history down to root to elsewhere
- with --root option.
-
-* "git reset --merge" is a new mode that works similar to the way
- "git checkout" switches branches, taking the local changes while
- switching to another commit.
-
-* "git submodule update" learned --no-fetch option.
-
-* "git tag" learned --contains that works the same way as the same option
- from "git branch".

-Fixes since v1.6.1
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.6.1.X maintenance series are included in this
-release, unless otherwise noted.
-
-Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
-v1.6.1.X series.
-
-* "git-add sub/file" when sub is a submodule incorrectly added the path to
- the superproject.
-
-* "git bundle" did not exclude annotated tags even when a range given
- from the command line wanted to.
-
-* "git filter-branch" unnecessarily refused to work when you had
- checked out a different commit from what is recorded in the superproject
- index in a submodule.
-
-* "git filter-branch" incorrectly tried to update a nonexistent work tree
- at the end when it is run in a bare repository.
-
-* "git gc" did not work if your repository was created with an ancient git
- and never had any pack files in it before.
-
-* "git mergetool" used to ignore autocrlf and other attributes
- based content rewriting.
-
-* branch switching and merges had a silly bug that did not validate
- the correct directory when making sure an existing subdirectory is
- clean.
-
-* "git -p cmd" when cmd is not a built-in one left the display in funny state
- when killed in the middle.

-GIT v1.6.3.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.3
-------------------
-
-* "git checkout -b new-branch" with a staged change in the index
- incorrectly primed the in-index cache-tree, resulting a wrong tree
- object to be written out of the index. This is a grave regression
- since the last 1.6.2.X maintenance release.

-GIT v1.6.3.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.3.1
---------------------
-
- * A few codepaths picked up the first few bytes from an sha1[] by
- casting the (char *) pointer to (int *); GCC 4.4 did not like this,
- and aborted compilation.
-
- * Some unlink(2) failures went undiagnosed.
-
- * The "recursive" merge strategy misbehaved when faced rename/delete
- conflicts while coming up with an intermediate merge base.
-
- * The low-level merge algorithm did not handle a degenerate case of
- merging a file with itself using itself as the common ancestor
- gracefully. It should produce the file itself, but instead
- produced an empty result.
-
- * GIT_TRACE mechanism segfaulted when tracing a shell-quoted aliases.
-
- * OpenBSD also uses st_ctimspec in "struct stat", instead of "st_ctim".
-
- * With NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS, "make install" can be told not to
- create hardlinks between $(gitexecdir)/git-$builtin_commands and
- $(bindir)/git.
-
- * command completion code in bash did not reliably detect that we are
- in a bare repository.
-
- * "git add ." in an empty directory complained that pathspec "." did not
- match anything, which may be technically correct, but not useful. We
- silently make it a no-op now.
-
- * "git add -p" (and "patch" action in "git add -i") was broken when
- the first hunk that adds a line at the top was split into two and
- both halves are marked to be used.
-
- * "git blame path" misbehaved at the commit where path became file
- from a directory with some files in it.
-
- * "git for-each-ref" had a segfaulting bug when dealing with a tag object
- created by an ancient git.
-
- * "git format-patch -k" still added patch numbers if format.numbered
- configuration was set.
-
- * "git grep --color ''" did not terminate. The command also had
- subtle bugs with its -w option.
-
- * http-push had a small use-after-free bug.
-
- * "git push" was converting OFS_DELTA pack representation into less
- efficient REF_DELTA representation unconditionally upon transfer,
- making the transferred data unnecessarily larger.
-
- * "git remote show origin" segfaulted when origin was still empty.
-
-Many other general usability updates around help text, diagnostic messages
-and documentation are included as well.

-GIT v1.6.3.3 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.3.2
---------------------
-
- * "git archive" running on Cygwin can get stuck in an infinite loop.
-
- * "git daemon" did not correctly parse the initial line that carries
- virtual host request information.
-
- * "git diff --textconv" leaked memory badly when the textconv filter
- errored out.
-
- * The built-in regular expressions to pick function names to put on
- hunk header lines for java and objc were very inefficiently written.
-
- * in certain error situations git-fetch (and git-clone) on Windows didn't
- detect connection abort and ended up waiting indefinitely.
-
- * import-tars script (in contrib) did not import symbolic links correctly.
-
- * http.c used CURLOPT_SSLKEY even on libcURL version 7.9.2, even though
- it was only available starting 7.9.3.
-
- * low-level filelevel merge driver used return value from strdup()
- without checking if we ran out of memory.
-
- * "git rebase -i" left stray closing parenthesis in its reflog message.
-
- * "git remote show" did not show all the URLs associated with the named
- remote, even though "git remote -v" did. Made them consistent by
- making the former show all URLs.
-
- * "whitespace" attribute that is set was meant to detect all errors known
- to git, but it told git to ignore trailing carriage-returns.
-
-Includes other documentation fixes.

-GIT v1.6.3.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.3.3
---------------------
-
- * "git add --no-ignore-errors" did not override configured
- add.ignore-errors configuration.
-
- * "git apply --whitespace=fix" did not fix trailing whitespace on an
- incomplete line.
-
- * "git branch" opened too many commit objects unnecessarily.
-
- * "git checkout -f $commit" with a path that is a file (or a symlink) in
- the work tree to a commit that has a directory at the path issued an
- unnecessary error message.
-
- * "git diff -c/--cc" was very inefficient in coalescing the removed lines
- shared between parents.
-
- * "git diff -c/--cc" showed removed lines at the beginning of a file
- incorrectly.
-
- * "git remote show nickname" did not honor configured
- remote.nickname.uploadpack when inspecting the branches at the remote.
-
- * "git request-pull" when talking to the terminal for a preview
- showed some of the output in the pager.
-
- * "git request-pull start nickname [end]" did not honor configured
- remote.nickname.uploadpack when it ran git-ls-remote against the remote
- repository to learn the current tip of branches.
-
-Includes other documentation updates and minor fixes.

-GIT v1.6.3 Release Notes
-========================
-
-With the next major release, "git push" into a branch that is
-currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose
-what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration
-variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository.
-
-To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
-push running this release will issue a big warning when the
-configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
-
- http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
- http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
-
-for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
-transition plan.
-
-For a similar reason, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch
-$killed in a remote repository $there, if $killed branch is the current
-branch pointed at by its HEAD, gets a large warning. You can choose what
-should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable
-receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository.
-
-When the user does not tell "git push" what to push, it has always
-pushed matching refs. For some people it is unexpected, and a new
-configuration variable push.default has been introduced to allow
-changing a different default behaviour. To advertise the new feature,
-a big warning is issued if this is not configured and a git push without
-arguments is attempted.
-
-
-Updates since v1.6.2
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
-* various git-svn updates.
-
-* git-gui updates, including an update to Russian translation, and a
- fix to an infinite loop when showing an empty diff.
-
-* gitk updates, including an update to Russian translation and improved Windows
- support.
-
-(performance)
-
-* many uses of lstat(2) in the codepath for "git checkout" have been
- optimized out.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
-* Boolean configuration variable yes/no can be written as on/off.
-
-* rsync:/path/to/repo can be used to run git over rsync for local
- repositories. It may not be useful in practice; meant primarily for
- testing.
-
-* http transport learned to prompt and use password when fetching from or
- pushing to http://user@host.xz/ URL.
-
-* (msysgit) progress output that is sent over the sideband protocol can
- be handled appropriately in Windows console.
-
-* "--pretty=<style>" option to the log family of commands can now be
- spelled as "--format=<style>". In addition, --format=%formatstring
- is a short-hand for --pretty=tformat:%formatstring.
-
-* "--oneline" is a synonym for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit".
-
-* "--graph" to the "git log" family can draw the commit ancestry graph
- in colors.
-
-* If you realize that you botched the patch when you are editing hunks
- with the 'edit' action in git-add -i/-p, you can abort the editor to
- tell git not to apply it.
-
-* @{-1} is a new way to refer to the last branch you were on introduced in
- 1.6.2, but the initial implementation did not teach this to a few
- commands. Now the syntax works with "branch -m @{-1} newname".
-
-* git-archive learned --output=<file> option.
-
-* git-archive takes attributes from the tree being archived; strictly
- speaking, this is an incompatible behaviour change, but is a good one.
- Use --worktree-attributes option to allow it to read attributes from
- the work tree as before (deprecated git-tar tree command always reads
- attributes from the work tree).
-
-* git-bisect shows not just the number of remaining commits whose goodness
- is unknown, but also shows the estimated number of remaining rounds.
-
-* You can give --date=<format> option to git-blame.
-
-* "git-branch -r" shows HEAD symref that points at a remote branch in
- interest of each tracked remote repository.
-
-* "git-branch -v -v" is a new way to get list of names for branches and the
- "upstream" branch for them.
-
-* git-config learned -e option to open an editor to edit the config file
- directly.
-
-* git-clone runs post-checkout hook when run without --no-checkout.
-
-* git-difftool is now part of the officially supported command, primarily
- maintained by David Aguilar.
-
-* git-for-each-ref learned a new "upstream" token.
-
-* git-format-patch can be told to use attachment with a new configuration,
- format.attach.
-
-* git-format-patch can be told to produce deep or shallow message threads.
-
-* git-format-patch can be told to always add sign-off with a configuration
- variable.
-
-* git-format-patch learned format.headers configuration to add extra
- header fields to the output. This behaviour is similar to the existing
- --add-header=<header> option of the command.
-
-* git-format-patch gives human readable names to the attached files, when
- told to send patches as attachments.
-
-* git-grep learned to highlight the found substrings in color.
-
-* git-imap-send learned to work around Thunderbird's inability to easily
- disable format=flowed with a new configuration, imap.preformattedHTML.
-
-* git-rebase can be told to rebase the series even if your branch is a
- descendant of the commit you are rebasing onto with --force-rebase
- option.
-
-* git-rebase can be told to report diffstat with the --stat option.
-
-* Output from git-remote command has been vastly improved.
-
-* "git remote update --prune $remote" updates from the named remote and
- then prunes stale tracking branches.
-
-* git-send-email learned --confirm option to review the Cc: list before
- sending the messages out.
-
-(developers)
-
-* Test scripts can be run under valgrind.
-
-* Test scripts can be run with installed git.
-
-* Makefile learned 'coverage' option to run the test suites with
- coverage tracking enabled.
-
-* Building the manpages with docbook-xsl between 1.69.1 and 1.71.1 now
- requires setting DOCBOOK_SUPPRESS_SP to work around a docbook-xsl bug.
- This workaround used to be enabled by default, but causes problems
- with newer versions of docbook-xsl. In addition, there are a few more
- knobs you can tweak to work around issues with various versions of the
- docbook-xsl package. See comments in Documentation/Makefile for details.
-
-* Support for building and testing a subset of git on a system without a
- working perl has been improved.

-release, unless otherwise noted.
-
-Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
-v1.6.2.X series.
-
-* "git-apply" rejected a patch that swaps two files (i.e. renames A to B
- and B to A at the same time). May need to be backported by cherry
- picking d8c81df and then 7fac0ee).
-
-* The initial checkout did not read the attributes from the .gitattribute
- file that is being checked out.
-
-* git-gc spent excessive amount of time to decide if an object appears
- in a locally existing pack (if needed, backport by merging 69e020a).

-GIT v1.6.4.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.4
-------------------
-
- * An unquoted value in the configuration file, when it contains more than
- one whitespaces in a row, got them replaced with a single space.
-
- * "git am" used to accept a single piece of e-mail per file (not a mbox)
- as its input, but multiple input format support in v1.6.4 broke it.
- Apparently many people have been depending on this feature.
-
- * The short help text for "git filter-branch" command was a single long
- line, wrapped by terminals, and was hard to read.
-
- * The "recursive" strategy of "git merge" segfaulted when a merge has
- more than one merge-bases, and merging of these merge-bases involves
- a rename/rename or a rename/add conflict.
-
- * "git pull --rebase" did not use the right fork point when the
- repository has already fetched from the upstream that rewinds the
- branch it is based on in an earlier fetch.
-
- * Explain the concept of fast-forward more fully in "git push"
- documentation, and hint to refer to it from an error message when the
- command refuses an update to protect the user.
-
- * The default value for pack.deltacachesize, used by "git repack", is now
- 256M, instead of unbounded. Otherwise a repack of a moderately sized
- repository would needlessly eat into swap.
-
- * Document how "git repack" (hence "git gc") interacts with a repository
- that borrows its objects from other repositories (e.g. ones created by
- "git clone -s").
-
- * "git show" on an annotated tag lacked a delimiting blank line between
- the tag itself and the contents of the object it tags.
-
- * "git verify-pack -v" erroneously reported number of objects with too
- deep delta depths as "chain length 0" objects.
-
- * Long names of authors and committers outside US-ASCII were sometimes
- incorrectly shown in "gitweb".
-
-Other minor documentation updates are included.

-Fixes since v1.6.4.1
---------------------
-
-* --date=relative output between 1 and 5 years ago rounded the number of
- years when saying X years Y months ago, instead of rounding it down.
-
-* "git add -p" did not handle changes in executable bits correctly
- (a regression around 1.6.3).
-
-* "git apply" did not honor GNU diff's convention to mark the creation/deletion
- event with UNIX epoch timestamp on missing side.
-
-* "git checkout" incorrectly removed files in a directory pointed by a
- symbolic link during a branch switch that replaces a directory with
- a symbolic link.
-
-* "git clean -d -f" happily descended into a subdirectory that is managed by a
- separate git repository. It now requires two -f options for safety.
-
-* "git fetch/push" over http transports had two rather grave bugs.
-
-* "git format-patch --cover-letter" did not prepare the cover letter file
- for use with non-ASCII strings when there are the series contributors with
- non-ASCII names.
-
-* "git pull origin branch" and "git fetch origin && git merge origin/branch"
- left different merge messages in the resulting commit.

-* "git clone" from an empty repository gave unnecessary error message,
- even though it did everything else correctly.
-
-* "git cvsserver" invoked git commands via "git-foo" style, which has long
- been deprecated.
-
-* "git fetch" and "git clone" had an extra sanity check to verify the
- presence of the corresponding *.pack file before downloading *.idx
- file by issuing a HEAD request. Github server however sometimes
- gave 500 (Internal server error) response to HEAD even if a GET
- request for *.pack file to the same URL would have succeeded, and broke
- clone over HTTP from some of their repositories. As a workaround, this
- verification has been removed (as it is not absolutely necessary).
-
-* "git grep" did not like relative pathname to refer outside the current
- directory when run from a subdirectory.
-
-* an error message from "git push" was formatted in a very ugly way.
-
-* "git svn" did not quote the subversion user name correctly when

-
-* The workaround for Github server that sometimes gave 500 (Internal server
- error) response to HEAD requests in 1.6.4.3 introduced a regression that
- caused re-fetching projects over http to segfault in certain cases due
- to uninitialized pointer being freed.
-
-* "git pull" on an unborn branch used to consider anything in the work
- tree and the index discardable.
-
-* "git diff -b/w" did not work well on the incomplete line at the end of
- the file, due to an incorrect hashing of lines in the low-level xdiff
- routines.
-
-* "git checkout-index --prefix=$somewhere" used to work when $somewhere is
- a symbolic link to a directory elsewhere, but v1.6.4.2 broke it.
-
-* "git unpack-objects --strict", invoked when receive.fsckobjects
- configuration is set in the receiving repository of "git push", did not

-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
- * "git add --edit" lets users edit the whole patch text to fine-tune what
- is added to the index.
-
- * "git am" accepts StGIT series file as its input.
-
- * "git bisect skip" skips to a more randomly chosen place in the hope
- to avoid testing a commit that is too close to a commit that is
- already known to be untestable.
-
- * "git cvsexportcommit" learned -k option to stop CVS keywords expansion
-
- * "git fast-export" learned to handle history simplification more
- gracefully.
-
- * "git fast-export" learned an option --tag-of-filtered-object to handle
- dangling tags resulting from history simplification more usefully.
-
- * "git grep" learned -p option to show the location of the match using the
- same context hunk marker "git diff" uses.
-
- * https transport can optionally be told that the used client
- certificate is password protected, in which case it asks the
- password only once.
-
- * "git imap-send" is IPv6 aware.
-
- * "git log --graph" draws graphs more compactly by using horizontal lines
- when able.
-
- * "git log --decorate" shows shorter refnames by stripping well-known
- refs/* prefix.
-
- * "git push $name" honors remote.$name.pushurl if present before
- using remote.$name.url. In other words, the URL used for fetching
- and pushing can be different.
-
- * "git send-email" understands quoted aliases in .mailrc files (might
- have to be backported to 1.6.3.X).
-
- * "git send-email" can fetch the sender address from the configuration
- variable "sendmail.from" (and "sendmail.<identity>.from").
-
- * "git show-branch" can color its output.
-
- * "add" and "update" subcommands to "git submodule" learned --reference
- option to use local clone with references.
-
- * "git submodule update" learned --rebase option to update checked
- out submodules by rebasing the local changes.
-
- * "gitweb" can optionally use gravatar to adorn author/committer names.

- directories in the output, 2009-06-13) may need to be cherry-picked
- to backport this fix.
-
- * The way Git.pm sets up a Repository object was not friendly to callers
- that chdir around. It now internally records the repository location
- as an absolute path when autodetected.
-
- * Removing a section with "git config --remove-section", when its
- section header has a variable definition on the same line, lost
- that variable definition.
-
- * "git rebase -p --onto" used to always leave side branches of a merge
- intact, even when both branches are subject to rewriting.
-
- * "git repack" used to faithfully follow grafts and considered true
- parents recorded in the commit object unreachable from the commit.
- After such a repacking, you cannot remove grafts without corrupting
- the repository.

- --whitespace" was inconsistent with the other kinds of errors.
- They are now colored, warned against, and fixed the same way as others.
-
- * There was no way to allow blank lines at the end of file without
- allowing extra blanks at the end of lines. You can use blank-at-eof
- and blank-at-eol whitespace error class to specify them separately.
- The old trailing-space error class is now a short-hand to set both.
-
- * "-p" option to "git format-patch" was supposed to suppress diffstat
- generation, but it was broken since 1.6.1.
-
- * "git imap-send" did not compile cleanly with newer OpenSSL.
-
- * "git help -a" outside of a git repository was broken.
-
- * "git ls-files -i" was supposed to be inverse of "git ls-files" without -i
- with respect to exclude patterns, but it was broken since 1.6.5.2.
-
- * "git ls-remote" outside of a git repository over http was broken.
-
- * "git rebase -i" gave bogus error message when the command word was
- misspelled.
-
- * "git receive-pack" that is run in response to "git push" did not run
- garbage collection nor update-server-info, but in larger hosting sites,
- these almost always need to be run. To help site administrators, the
- command now runs "gc --auto" and "u-s-i" by setting receive.autogc
- and receive.updateserverinfo configuration variables, respectively.
-
- * Release notes spelled the package name with incorrect capitalization.
-
- * "gitweb" did not escape non-ascii characters correctly in the URL.
-
- * "gitweb" showed "patch" link even for merge commits.
-
- * "gitweb" showed incorrect links for blob line numbers in pathinfo mode.

-Other minor documentation updates are included.

-Git v1.6.5.4 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.5.3
---------------------
-
- * "git help" (without argument) used to check if you are in a directory
- under git control. There was no breakage in behaviour per-se, but this
- was unnecessary.
-
- * "git prune-packed" gave progress output even when its standard error is
- not connected to a terminal; this caused cron jobs that run it to
- produce crufts.
-
- * "git pack-objects --all-progress" is an option to ask progress output
- from write-object phase _if_ progress output were to be produced, and
- shouldn't have forced the progress output.
-
- * "git apply -p<n> --directory=<elsewhere>" did not work well for a
- non-default value of n.
-
- * "git merge foo HEAD" was misparsed as an old-style invocation of the
- command and produced a confusing error message. As it does not specify
- any other branch to merge, it shouldn't be mistaken as such. We will
- remove the old style "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>..." syntax in
- future versions, but not in this release,
-
- * "git merge -m <message> <branch>..." added the standard merge message
- on its own after user-supplied message, which should have overridden the
- standard one.
-
-Other minor documentation updates are included.

-Git v1.6.5.5 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.5.4
---------------------
-
- * Manual pages can be formatted with older xmlto again.
-
- * GREP_OPTIONS exported from user's environment could have broken
- our scripted commands.
-
- * In configuration files, a few variables that name paths can begin with
- ~/ and ~username/ and they are expanded as expected. This is not a
- bugfix but 1.6.6 will have this and without backporting users cannot
- easily use the same ~/.gitconfig across versions.
-
- * "git diff -B -M" did the same computation to hash lines of contents
- twice, and held onto memory after it has used the data in it
- unnecessarily before it freed.
-
- * "git diff -B" and "git diff --dirstat" was not counting newly added
- contents correctly.
-
- * "git format-patch revisions... -- path" issued an incorrect error
- message that suggested to use "--" on the command line when path
- does not exist in the current work tree (it is a separate matter if
- it makes sense to limit format-patch with pathspecs like that
- without using the --full-diff option).
-
- * "git grep -F -i StRiNg" did not work as expected.
-
- * Enumeration of available merge strategies iterated over the list of
- commands in a wrong way, sometimes producing an incorrect result.
-
- * "git shortlog" did not honor the "encoding" header embedded in the
- commit object like "git log" did.
-
- * Reading progress messages that come from the remote side while running
- "git pull" is given precedence over reading the actual pack data to
- prevent garbled progress message on the user's terminal.
-
- * "git rebase" got confused when the log message began with certain
- strings that looked like Subject:, Date: or From: header.
-
- * "git reset" accidentally run in .git/ directory checked out the
- work tree contents in there.
-
-
-Other minor documentation updates are included.

-Git v1.6.5.6 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.5.5
---------------------
-
- * "git add -p" had a regression since v1.6.5.3 that broke deletion of
- non-empty files.
-
- * "git archive -o o.zip -- Makefile" produced an archive in o.zip
- but in POSIX tar format.
-
- * Error message given to "git pull --rebase" when the user didn't give
- enough clue as to what branch to integrate with still talked about
- "merging with" the branch.
-
- * Error messages given by "git merge" when the merge resulted in a
- fast-forward still were in plumbing lingo, even though in v1.6.5
- we reworded messages in other cases.
-
- * The post-upload-hook run by upload-pack in response to "git fetch" has
- been removed, due to security concerns (the hook first appeared in
- 1.6.5).

-Git v1.6.5.7 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.5.6
---------------------
-
-* If a user specifies a color for a <slot> (i.e. a class of things to show
- in a particular color) that is known only by newer versions of git
- (e.g. "color.diff.func" was recently added for upcoming 1.6.6 release),
- an older version of git should just ignore them. Instead we diagnosed
- it as an error.
-
-* With help.autocorrect set to non-zero value, the logic to guess typos
- in the subcommand name misfired and ran a random nonsense command.
-
-* If a command is run with an absolute path as a pathspec inside a bare
- repository, e.g. "rev-list HEAD -- /home", the code tried to run
- strlen() on NULL, which is the result of get_git_work_tree(), and
- segfaulted.

-Git v1.6.5.8 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.5.7
---------------------
-
-* "git count-objects" did not handle packfiles that are bigger than 4G on
- platforms with 32-bit off_t.
-
-* "git rebase -i" did not abort cleanly if it failed to launch the editor.
-
-* "git blame" did not work well when commit lacked the author name.
-

- that is not a commit.
-
-* "git reset --hard" did not work correctly when GIT_WORK_TREE environment
- variable is used to point at the root of the true work tree.
-
-* "git grep" fed a buffer that is not NUL-terminated to underlying
- regexec().
-
-* "git checkout -m other" while on a branch that does not have any commit

-GIT v1.6.5 Release Notes
-========================
-
-In git 1.7.0, which was planned to be the release after 1.6.5, "git
-push" into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by
-default.
-
-You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
-configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving
-repository.
-
-Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote
-repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by
-its HEAD, will be refused by default.
-
-You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
-configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving
-repository.
-
-To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
-push running this release will issue a big warning when the
-configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
-

-transition plan.
-
-Updates since v1.6.4
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
- * various updates to gitk, git-svn and gitweb.
-
-(portability)
-
- * more improvements on mingw port.
-
- * mingw will also give FRSX as the default value for the LESS
- environment variable when the user does not have one.
-
- * initial support to compile git on Windows with MSVC.
-
-(performance)
-
- * On major platforms, the system can be compiled to use with Linus's
- block-sha1 implementation of the SHA-1 hash algorithm, which
- outperforms the default fallback implementation we borrowed from
- Mozilla.
-
- * Unnecessary inefficiency in deepening of a shallow repository has
- been removed.
-
- * "git clone" does not grab objects that it does not need (i.e.
- referenced only from refs outside refs/heads and refs/tags
- hierarchy) anymore.
-
- * The "git" main binary used to link with libcurl, which then dragged
- in a large number of external libraries. When using basic plumbing
- commands in scripts, this unnecessarily slowed things down. We now
- implement http/https/ftp transfer as a separate executable as we
- used to.
-
- * "git clone" run locally hardlinks or copies the files in .git/ to
- newly created repository. It used to give new mtime to copied files,
- but this delayed garbage collection to trigger unnecessarily in the
- cloned repository. We now preserve mtime for these files to avoid
- this issue.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
- * Human writable date format to various options, e.g. --since=yesterday,
- master@{2000.09.17}, are taught to infer some omitted input properly.
-
- * A few programs gave verbose "advice" messages to help uninitiated
- people when issuing error messages. An infrastructure to allow
- users to squelch them has been introduced, and a few such messages
- can be silenced now.
-
- * refs/replace/ hierarchy is designed to be usable as a replacement
- of the "grafts" mechanism, with the added advantage that it can be
- transferred across repositories.
-
- * "git am" learned to optionally ignore whitespace differences.
-
- * "git am" handles input e-mail files that has CRLF line endings sensibly.
-
- * "git am" learned "--scissors" option to allow you to discard early part
- of an incoming e-mail.
-
- * "git archive -o output.zip" works without being told what format to
- use with an explicit "--format=zip".option.
-
- * "git checkout", "git reset" and "git stash" learned to pick and
- choose to use selected changes you made, similar to "git add -p".
-
- * "git clone" learned a "-b" option to pick a HEAD to check out
- different from the remote's default branch.
-
- * "git clone" learned --recursive option.
-
- * "git clone" from a local repository on a different filesystem used to
- copy individual object files without preserving the old timestamp, giving
- them extra lifetime in the new repository until they gc'ed.
-
- * "git commit --dry-run $args" is a new recommended way to ask "what would
- happen if I try to commit with these arguments."
-
- * "git commit --dry-run" and "git status" shows conflicted paths in a
- separate section to make them easier to spot during a merge.
-
- * "git cvsimport" now supports password-protected pserver access even
- when the password is not taken from ~/.cvspass file.
-
- * "git fast-export" learned --no-data option that can be useful when
- reordering commits and trees without touching the contents of
- blobs.
-
- * "git fast-import" has a pair of new front-end in contrib/ area.
-
- * "git init" learned to mkdir/chdir into a directory when given an
- extra argument (i.e. "git init this").
-
- * "git instaweb" optionally can use mongoose as the web server.
-
- * "git log --decorate" can optionally be told with --decorate=full to
- give the reference name in full.
-
- * "git merge" issued an unnecessarily scary message when it detected
- that the merge may have to touch the path that the user has local
- uncommitted changes to. The message has been reworded to make it
- clear that the command aborted, without doing any harm.
-
- * "git push" can be told to be --quiet.
-
- * "git push" pays attention to url.$base.pushInsteadOf and uses a URL
- that is derived from the URL used for fetching.
-
- * informational output from "git reset" that lists the locally modified
- paths is made consistent with that of "git checkout $another_branch".
-
- * "git submodule" learned to give submodule name to scripts run with
- "foreach" subcommand.
-
- * various subcommands to "git submodule" learned --recursive option.
-
- * "git submodule summary" learned --files option to compare the work
- tree vs the commit bound at submodule path, instead of comparing
- the index.
-
- * "git upload-pack", which is the server side support for "git clone" and
- "git fetch", can call a new post-upload-pack hook for statistics purposes.
-
-(developers)
-
- * With GIT_TEST_OPTS="--root=/p/a/t/h", tests can be run outside the
- source directory; using tmpfs may give faster turnaround.
-
- * With NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER set, DESTDIR= is now honoured, so you can
- build for one location, and install into another location to tar it
- up.

-Git v1.6.6.2 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.6.6.1
---------------------
-
- * recursive merge didn't correctly diagnose its own programming errors,
- and instead caused the caller to segfault.
-
- * The new "smart http" aware clients probed the web servers to see if
- they support smart http, but did not fall back to dumb http transport
- correctly with some servers.
-
- * Time based reflog syntax e.g. "@{yesterday}" didn't diagnose a misspelled
- time specification and instead assumed "@{now}".
-
- * "git archive HEAD -- no-such-directory" produced an empty archive
- without complaining.
-
- * "git blame -L start,end -- file" misbehaved when given a start that is
- larger than the number of lines in the file.
-
- * "git checkout -m" didn't correctly call custom merge backend supplied
- by the end user.
-
- * "git config -f <file>" misbehaved when run from a subdirectory.
-
- * "git cvsserver" didn't like having regex metacharacters (e.g. '+') in
- CVSROOT environment.
-
- * "git fast-import" did not correctly handle large blobs that may
- bust the pack size limit.
-
- * "git gui" is supposed to work even when launched from inside a .git
- directory.
-
- * "git gui" misbehaved when applying a hunk that ends with deletion.
-
- * "git imap-send" did not honor imap.preformattedHTML as documented.
-
- * "git log" family incorrectly showed the commit notes unconditionally by

-
- * "git status" shouldn't require an write access to the repository.

-Git v1.6.6 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Notes on behaviour change
--------------------------
-
- * In this release, "git fsck" defaults to "git fsck --full" and
- checks packfiles, and because of this it will take much longer to
- complete than before. If you prefer a quicker check only on loose
- objects (the old default), you can say "git fsck --no-full". This
- has been supported by 1.5.4 and newer versions of git, so it is
- safe to write it in your script even if you use slightly older git
- on some of your machines.
-
-Preparing yourselves for compatibility issues in 1.7.0
-------------------------------------------------------
-
-In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.6, there will
-be a handful of behaviour changes that will break backward compatibility.
-
-These changes were discussed long time ago and existing behaviours have
-been identified as more problematic to the userbase than keeping them for
-the sake of backward compatibility.
-
-When necessary, a transition strategy for existing users has been designed
-not to force them running around setting configuration variables and
-updating their scripts in order to either keep the traditional behaviour
-or adjust to the new behaviour, on the day their sysadmin decides to install
-the new version of git. When we switched from "git-foo" to "git foo" in
-1.6.0, even though the change had been advertised and the transition
-guide had been provided for a very long time, the users procrastinated
-during the entire transition period, and ended up panicking on the day
-their sysadmins updated their git installation. We are trying to avoid
-repeating that unpleasantness in the 1.7.0 release.
-
-For changes decided to be in 1.7.0, commands that will be affected
-have been much louder to strongly discourage such procrastination, and
-they continue to be in this release. If you have been using recent
-versions of git, you would have seen warnings issued when you used
-features whose behaviour will change, with a clear instruction on how
-to keep the existing behaviour if you want to. You hopefully are
-already well prepared.
-
-Of course, we have also been giving "this and that will change in
-1.7.0; prepare yourselves" warnings in the release notes and
-announcement messages for the past few releases. Let's see how well
-users will fare this time.
-
- * "git push" into a branch that is currently checked out (i.e. pointed by
- HEAD in a repository that is not bare) will be refused by default.
-
- Similarly, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed
- in a remote repository $there, when $killed branch is the current
- branch pointed at by its HEAD, will be refused by default.
-
- Setting the configuration variables receive.denyCurrentBranch and
- receive.denyDeleteCurrent to 'ignore' in the receiving repository
- can be used to override these safety features. Versions of git
- since 1.6.2 have issued a loud warning when you tried to do these
- operations without setting the configuration, so repositories of
- people who still need to be able to perform such a push should
- already have been future proofed.
-
- Please refer to:
-
- http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
- http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
-
- for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
- transition process that already took place so far.
-
- * "git send-email" will not make deep threads by default when sending a
- patch series with more than two messages. All messages will be sent
- as a reply to the first message, i.e. cover letter. Git 1.6.6 (this
- release) will issue a warning about the upcoming default change, when
- it uses the traditional "deep threading" behaviour as the built-in
- default. To squelch the warning but still use the "deep threading"
- behaviour, give --chain-reply-to option or set sendemail.chainreplyto
- to true.
-
- It has been possible to configure send-email to send "shallow thread"
- by setting sendemail.chainreplyto configuration variable to false.
- The only thing 1.7.0 release will do is to change the default when
- you haven't configured that variable.
-
- * "git status" will not be "git commit --dry-run". This change does not
- affect you if you run the command without pathspec.
-
- Nobody sane found the current behaviour of "git status Makefile" useful
- nor meaningful, and it confused users. "git commit --dry-run" has been
- provided as a way to get the current behaviour of this command since
- 1.6.5.
-
- * "git diff" traditionally treated various "ignore whitespace" options
- only as a way to filter the patch output. "git diff --exit-code -b"
- exited with non-zero status even if all changes were about changing the
- amount of whitespace and nothing else. and "git diff -b" showed the
- "diff --git" header line for such a change without patch text.
-
- In 1.7.0, the "ignore whitespaces" will affect the semantics of the
- diff operation itself. A change that does not affect anything but
- whitespaces will be reported with zero exit status when run with
- --exit-code, and there will not be "diff --git" header for such a
- change.
-
-
-Updates since v1.6.5
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
- * various gitk updates including use of themed widgets under Tk 8.5,
- Japanese translation, a fix to a bug when running "gui blame" from
- a subdirectory, etc.
-
- * various git-gui updates including new translations, wm states fixes,
- Tk bug workaround after quitting, improved heuristics to trigger gc,
- etc.
-
- * various git-svn updates.
-
- * "git fetch" over http learned a new mode that is different from the
- traditional "dumb commit walker".
-
-(portability)
-
- * imap-send can be built on mingw port.
-
-(performance)
-
- * "git diff -B" has smaller memory footprint.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
- * The object replace mechanism can be bypassed with --no-replace-objects
- global option given to the "git" program.
-
- * In configuration files, a few variables that name paths can begin with ~/
- and ~username/ and they are expanded as expected.
-
- * "git subcmd -h" now shows short usage help for many more subcommands.
-
- * "git bisect reset" can reset to an arbitrary commit.
-
- * "git checkout frotz" when there is no local branch "frotz" but there
- is only one remote tracking branch "frotz" is taken as a request to
- start the named branch at the corresponding remote tracking branch.
-
- * "git commit -c/-C/--amend" can be told with a new "--reset-author" option
- to ignore authorship information in the commit it is taking the message
- from.
-
- * "git describe" can be told to add "-dirty" suffix with "--dirty" option.
-
- * "git diff" learned --submodule option to show a list of one-line logs
- instead of differences between the commit object names.
-
- * "git diff" learned to honor diff.color.func configuration to paint
- function name hint printed on the hunk header "@@ -j,k +l,m @@" line
- in the specified color.
-
- * "git fetch" learned --all and --multiple options, to run fetch from
- many repositories, and --prune option to remove remote tracking
- branches that went stale. These make "git remote update" and "git
- remote prune" less necessary (there is no plan to remove "remote
- update" nor "remote prune", though).
-
- * "git fsck" by default checks the packfiles (i.e. "--full" is the
- default); you can turn it off with "git fsck --no-full".
-
- * "git grep" can use -F (fixed strings) and -i (ignore case) together.
-
- * import-tars contributed fast-import frontend learned more types of
- compressed tarballs.
-
- * "git instaweb" knows how to talk with mod_cgid to apache2.
-
- * "git log --decorate" shows the location of HEAD as well.
-
- * "git log" and "git rev-list" learned to take revs and pathspecs from
- the standard input with the new "--stdin" option.
-
- * "--pretty=format" option to "log" family of commands learned:
-
- . to wrap text with the "%w()" specifier.
- . to show reflog information with "%g[sdD]" specifier.
-
- * "git notes" command to annotate existing commits.
-
- * "git merge" (and "git pull") learned --ff-only option to make it fail
- if the merge does not result in a fast-forward.
-
- * "git mergetool" learned to use p4merge.
-
- * "git rebase -i" learned "reword" that acts like "edit" but immediately
- starts an editor to tweak the log message without returning control to
- the shell, which is done by "edit" to give an opportunity to tweak the
- contents.
-
- * "git send-email" can be told with "--envelope-sender=auto" to use the
- same address as "From:" address as the envelope sender address.
-
- * "git send-email" will issue a warning when it defaults to the
- --chain-reply-to behaviour without being told by the user and
- instructs to prepare for the change of the default in 1.7.0 release.
-
- * In "git submodule add <repository> <path>", <path> is now optional and
- inferred from <repository> the same way "git clone <repository>" does.
-
- * "git svn" learned to read SVN 1.5+ and SVK merge tickets.
-
- * "git svn" learned to recreate empty directories tracked only by SVN.
-
- * "gitweb" can optionally render its "blame" output incrementally (this
- requires JavaScript on the client side).
-
- * Author names shown in gitweb output are links to search commits by the
- author.

-
- * In a freshly created repository "rev-parse HEAD^0" complained that
- it is dangling symref, even though "rev-parse HEAD" didn't.
-
- * "git show :no-such-name" tried to access the index without bounds
- check, leading to a potential segfault.
-
- * Message from "git cherry-pick" was harder to read and use than necessary
- when it stopped due to conflicting changes.
-
- * We referred to ".git/refs/" throughout the documentation when we
- meant to talk about abstract notion of "ref namespace". Because
- people's repositories often have packed refs these days, this was
- confusing.
-
- * "git diff --output=/path/that/cannot/be/written" did not correctly

-
- * "git grep" compiled with threading support tried to access an

- * "git stash pop -q --index" failed because the unnecessary --index
- option was propagated to "git stash drop" that is internally run at the

- * GIT_PAGER was not honored consistently by some scripted Porcelains, most
- notably "git am".
-
- * updating working tree files after telling git to add them to the
- index and while it is still working created garbage object files in
- the repository without diagnosing it as an error.
-
- * "git bisect -- pathspec..." did not diagnose an error condition properly when

-Git v1.7.0 Release Notes
-========================
-
-Notes on behaviour change
--------------------------
-
- * "git push" into a branch that is currently checked out (i.e. pointed at by
- HEAD in a repository that is not bare) is refused by default.
-
- Similarly, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed
- in a remote repository $there, when $killed branch is the current
- branch pointed at by its HEAD, will be refused by default.
-
- Setting the configuration variables receive.denyCurrentBranch and
- receive.denyDeleteCurrent to 'ignore' in the receiving repository
- can be used to override these safety features.
-
- * "git send-email" does not make deep threads by default when sending a
- patch series with more than two messages. All messages will be sent
- as a reply to the first message, i.e. cover letter.
-
- It has been possible already to configure send-email to send "shallow thread"
- by setting sendemail.chainreplyto configuration variable to false. The
- only thing this release does is to change the default when you haven't
- configured that variable.
-
- * "git status" is not "git commit --dry-run" anymore. This change does
- not affect you if you run the command without argument.
-
- * "git diff" traditionally treated various "ignore whitespace" options
- only as a way to filter the patch output. "git diff --exit-code -b"
- exited with non-zero status even if all changes were about changing the
- amount of whitespace and nothing else; and "git diff -b" showed the
- "diff --git" header line for such a change without patch text.
-
- In this release, the "ignore whitespaces" options affect the semantics
- of the diff operation. A change that does not affect anything but
- whitespaces is reported with zero exit status when run with
- --exit-code, and there is no "diff --git" header for such a change.
-
- * External diff and textconv helpers are now executed using the shell.
- This makes them consistent with other programs executed by git, and
- allows you to pass command-line parameters to the helpers. Any helper
- paths containing spaces or other metacharacters now need to be
- shell-quoted. The affected helpers are GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF in the
- environment, and diff.*.command and diff.*.textconv in the config
- file.
-
- * The --max-pack-size argument to 'git repack', 'git pack-objects', and
- 'git fast-import' was assuming the provided size to be expressed in MiB,
- unlike the corresponding config variable and other similar options accepting
- a size value. It is now expecting a size expressed in bytes, with a possible
- unit suffix of 'k', 'm', or 'g'.
-
-Updates since v1.6.6
---------------------
-
-(subsystems)
-
- * "git fast-import" updates; adds "option" and "feature" to detect the
- mismatch between fast-import and the frontends that produce the input
- stream.
-
- * "git svn" support of subversion "merge tickets" and miscellaneous fixes.
-
- * "gitk" and "git gui" translation updates.
-
- * "gitweb" updates (code clean-up, load checking etc.)
-
-(portability)
-
- * Some more MSVC portability patches for msysgit port.
-
- * Minimum Pthreads emulation for msysgit port.
-
-(performance)
-
- * More performance improvement patches for msysgit port.
-
-(usability, bells and whistles)
-
- * More commands learned "--quiet" and "--[no-]progress" options.
-
- * Various commands given by the end user (e.g. diff.type.textconv,
- and GIT_EDITOR) can be specified with command line arguments. E.g. it
- is now possible to say "[diff "utf8doc"] textconv = nkf -w".
-
- * "sparse checkout" feature allows only part of the work tree to be
- checked out.
-
- * HTTP transfer can use authentication scheme other than basic
- (i.e./e.g. digest).
-
- * Switching from a version of superproject that used to have a submodule
- to another version of superproject that no longer has it did not remove
- the submodule directory when it should (namely, when you are not
- interested in the submodule at all and didn't clone/checkout).
-
- * A new attribute conflict-marker-size can be used to change the size of
- the conflict markers from the default 7; this is useful when tracked
- contents (e.g. git-merge documentation) have strings that resemble the
- conflict markers.
-
- * A new syntax "<branch>@{upstream}" can be used on the command line to
- substitute the name of the "upstream" of the branch. Missing branch
- defaults to the current branch, so "git fetch && git merge @{upstream}"
- will be equivalent to "git pull".
-
- * "git am --resolved" has a synonym "git am --continue".
-
- * "git branch --set-upstream" can be used to update the (surprise!) upstream,
- i.e. where the branch is supposed to pull and merge from (or rebase onto).
-
- * "git checkout A...B" is a way to detach HEAD at the merge base between
- A and B.
-
- * "git checkout -m path" to reset the work tree file back into the
- conflicted state works even when you already ran "git add path" and
- resolved the conflicts.
-
- * "git commit --date='<date>'" can be used to override the author date
- just like "git commit --author='<name> <email>'" can be used to
- override the author identity.
-
- * "git commit --no-status" can be used to omit the listing of the index
- and the work tree status in the editor used to prepare the log message.
-
- * "git commit" warns a bit more aggressively until you configure user.email,
- whose default value almost always is not (and fundamentally cannot be)
- what you want.
-
- * "git difftool" has been extended to make it easier to integrate it
- with gitk.
-
- * "git fetch --all" can now be used in place of "git remote update".
-
- * "git grep" does not rely on external grep anymore. It can use more than
- one thread to accelerate the operation.
-
- * "git grep" learned "--quiet" option.
-
- * "git log" and friends learned "--glob=heads/*" syntax that is a more
- flexible way to complement "--branches/--tags/--remotes".
-
- * "git merge" learned to pass options specific to strategy-backends. E.g.
-
- - "git merge -Xsubtree=path/to/directory" can be used to tell the subtree
- strategy how much to shift the trees explicitly.
-
- - "git merge -Xtheirs" can be used to auto-merge as much as possible,
- while discarding your own changes and taking merged version in
- conflicted regions.
-
- * "git push" learned "git push origin --delete branch", a syntactic sugar
- for "git push origin :branch".
-
- * "git push" learned "git push --set-upstream origin forker:forkee" that
- lets you configure your "forker" branch to later pull from "forkee"
- branch at "origin".
-
- * "git rebase --onto A...B" means the history is replayed on top of the
- merge base between A and B.
-
- * "git rebase -i" learned new action "fixup" that squashes the change
- but does not affect existing log message.
-
- * "git rebase -i" also learned --autosquash option that is useful
- together with the new "fixup" action.
-
- * "git remote" learned set-url subcommand that updates (surprise!) url
- for an existing remote nickname.
-
- * "git rerere" learned "forget path" subcommand. Together with "git
- checkout -m path" it will be useful when you recorded a wrong
- resolution.
-
- * Use of "git reset --merge" has become easier when resetting away a
- conflicted mess left in the work tree.
-
- * "git rerere" had rerere.autoupdate configuration but there was no way
- to countermand it from the command line; --no-rerere-autoupdate option
- given to "merge", "revert", etc. fixes this.
-
- * "git status" learned "-s(hort)" output format.
-
-(developers)
-
- * The infrastructure to build foreign SCM interface has been updated.
-
- * Many more commands are now built-in.
-
- * THREADED_DELTA_SEARCH is no more. If you build with threads, delta
- compression will always take advantage of it.
-
-Fixes since v1.6.6
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.6.6.X maintenance series are included in this
-release, unless otherwise noted.
-
- * "git branch -d branch" used to refuse deleting the branch even when
- the branch is fully merged to its upstream branch if it is not merged
- to the current branch. It now deletes it in such a case.
-
- * "filter-branch" command incorrectly said --prune-empty and --filter-commit
- were incompatible; the latter should be read as --commit-filter.
-
- * When using "git status" or asking "git diff" to compare the work tree
- with something, they used to consider that a checked-out submodule with
- uncommitted changes is not modified; this could cause people to forget
- committing these changes in the submodule before committing in the
- superproject. They now consider such a change as a modification and
- "git diff" will append a "-dirty" to the work tree side when generating
- patch output or when used with the --submodule option.

-Git v1.7.1.1 Release Notes
-==========================
-
-Fixes since v1.7.1
-------------------
-
- * Authentication over http transport can now be made lazily, in that the
- request can first go to a URL without username, get a 401 response and
- then the client will ask for the username to use.
-
- * We used to mistakenly think "../work" is a subdirectory of the current
- directory when we are in "../work-xyz".
-
- * The attribute mechanism now allows an entry that uses an attribute
- macro that set/unset one attribute, immediately followed by an
- overriding setting; this makes attribute macros much easier to use.
-
- * We didn't recognize timezone "Z" as a synonym for "UTC" (75b37e70).
-
- * In 1.7.0, read-tree and user commands that use the mechanism such as
- checkout and merge were fixed to handle switching between branches one
- of which has a file while the other has a directory at the same path
- correctly even when there are some "confusing" pathnames in them. But
- the algorithm used for this fix was suboptimal and had a terrible
- performance degradation especially in larger trees.
-
- * "git am -3" did not show diagnosis when the patch in the message was corrupt.
-
- * After "git apply --whitespace=fix" removed trailing blank lines in an
- patch in a patch series, it failed to apply later patches that depend
- on the presence of such blank lines.
-
- * "git bundle --stdin" segfaulted.
-
- * "git checkout" and "git rebase" overwrote paths that are marked "assume
- unchanged".
-
- * "git commit --amend" on a commit with an invalid author-name line that
- lacks the display name didn't work.
-
- * "git describe" did not tie-break tags that point at the same commit
- correctly; newer ones are preferred by paying attention to the
- tagger date now.
-
- * "git diff" used to tell underlying xdiff machinery to work very hard to
- minimize the output, but this often was spending too many extra cycles
- for very little gain.
-
- * "git diff --color" did not paint extended diff headers per line
- (i.e. the coloring escape sequence didn't end at the end of line),
- which confused "less -R".
-
- * "git fetch" over HTTP verifies the downloaded packfiles more robustly.
-
- * The memory usage by "git index-pack" (run during "git fetch" and "git
- push") got leaner.
-
- * "GIT_DIR=foo.git git init --bare bar.git" created foo.git instead of bar.git.
-
- * "git log --abbrev=$num --format='%h' ignored --abbrev=$num.
-
- * "git ls-files ../out/side/cwd" refused to work.
-
- * "git merge --log" used to replace the custom message given by "-m" with
- the shortlog, instead of appending to it.
-
- * "git notes copy" without any other argument segfaulted.
-
- * "git pull" accepted "--dry-run", gave it to underlying "git fetch" but
- ignored the option itself, resulting in a bogus attempt to merge
- unrelated commit.
-
- * "git rebase" did not faithfully reproduce a malformed author ident, that
- is often seen in a repository converted from foreign SCMs.
-
- * "git reset --hard" started from a wrong directory and a working tree in
- a nonstandard location is in use got confused.
-
- * "git send-email" lacked a way to specify the domainname used in the
- EHLO/HELO exchange, causing rejected connection from picky servers.
- It learned --smtp-domain option to solve this issue.
-
- * "git send-email" did not declare a content-transfer-encoding and
- content-type even when its payload needs to be sent in 8-bit.
-
- * "git show -C -C" and other corner cases lost diff metainfo output
- in 1.7.0.
-
- * "git stash" incorrectly lost paths in the working tree that were
- previously removed from the index.
-
- * "git status" stopped refreshing the index by mistake in 1.7.1.
-
- * "git status" showed excess "hints" even when advice.statusHints is set to false.
-
-And other minor fixes and documentation updates.

-
-Fixes since v1.7.1.1

-
- * "git commit" did not honor GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable, resulting
- reflog messages for cherry-pick and revert actions to be recorded as "commit".
-
- * "git clone/fetch/pull" issued an incorrect error message when a ref and
- a symref that points to the ref were updated at the same time. This
- obviously would update them to the same value, and should not result in
- an error condition.
-
- * "git diff" inside a tree with many pathnames that have certain

- * "git rev-parse --parseopt --stop-at-non-option" did not stop at non option
- when --keep-dashdash was in effect.
-
- * An overlong line after ".gitdir: " in a git file caused out of bounds
- access to an array on the stack.

-
- * core.eol configuration and text/eol attributes are the new way to control
- the end of line conventions for files in the working tree.
-
- * core.autocrlf has been made safer - it will now only handle line
- endings for new files and files that are LF-only in the
- repository. To normalize content that has been checked in with
- CRLF, use the new eol/text attributes.
-
- * The whitespace rules used in "git apply --whitespace" and "git diff"
- gained a new member in the family (tab-in-indent) to help projects with
- policy to indent only with spaces.
-
- * When working from a subdirectory, by default, git does not look for its
- metadirectory ".git" across filesystems, primarily to help people who
- have invocations of git in their custom PS1 prompts, as being outside
- of a git repository would look for ".git" all the way up to the root
- directory, and NFS mounts are often slow. DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM
- environment variable can be used to tell git not to stop at a
- filesystem boundary.
-
- * Usage help messages generated by parse-options library (i.e. most
- of the Porcelain commands) are sent to the standard output now.
-
- * ':/<string>' notation to look for a commit now takes regular expression
- and it is not anchored at the beginning of the commit log message
- anymore (this is a backward incompatible change).
-
- * "git" wrapper learned "-c name=value" option to override configuration
- variable from the command line.
-
- * Improved portability for various platforms including older SunOS,
- HP-UX 10/11, AIX, Tru64, etc. and platforms with Python 2.4.
-
- * The message from "git am -3" has been improved when conflict
- resolution ended up making the patch a no-op.
-
- * "git blame" applies the textconv filter to the contents it works
- on, when available.
-
- * "git checkout --orphan newbranch" is similar to "-b newbranch" but
- prepares to create a root commit that is not connected to any existing
- commit.
-
- * "git cherry-pick" learned to pick a range of commits
- (e.g. "cherry-pick A..B" and "cherry-pick --stdin"), so did "git
- revert"; these do not support the nicer sequencing control "rebase
- [-i]" has, though.
-
- * "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" learned --strategy option to specify
- the merge strategy to be used when performing three-way merges.
-
- * "git cvsserver" can be told to use pserver; its password file can be
- stored outside the repository.
-
- * The output from the textconv filter used by "git diff" can be cached to
- speed up their reuse.
-
- * "git diff --word-diff=<mode>" extends the existing "--color-words"
- option, making it more useful in color-challenged environments.
-
- * The regexp to detect function headers used by "git diff" for PHP has
- been enhanced for visibility modifiers (public, protected, etc.) to
- better support PHP5.
-
- * "diff.noprefix" configuration variable can be used to implicitly
- ask for "diff --no-prefix" behaviour.
-
- * "git for-each-ref" learned "%(objectname:short)" that gives the object
- name abbreviated.
-
- * "git format-patch" learned --signature option and format.signature
- configuration variable to customize the e-mail signature used in the
- output.
-
- * Various options to "git grep" (e.g. --count, --name-only) work better
- with binary files.
-
- * "git grep" learned "-Ovi" to open the files with hits in your editor.
-
- * "git help -w" learned "chrome" and "chromium" browsers.
-
- * "git log --decorate" shows commit decorations in various colours.
-
- * "git log --follow <path>" follows across copies (it used to only follow
- renames). This may make the processing more expensive.
-
- * "git log --pretty=format:<template>" specifier learned "% <something>"
- magic that inserts a space only when %<something> expands to a
- non-empty string; this is similar to "%+<something>" magic, but is
- useful in a context to generate a single line output.
-
- * "git notes prune" learned "-n" (dry-run) and "-v" options, similar to
- what "git prune" has.
-
- * "git patch-id" can be fed a mbox without getting confused by the
- signature line in the format-patch output.
-
- * "git remote" learned "set-branches" subcommand.
-
- * "git rev-list A..B" learned --ancestry-path option to further limit
- the result to the commits that are on the ancestry chain between A and
- B (i.e. commits that are not descendants of A are excluded).
-
- * "git show -5" is equivalent to "git show --do-walk 5"; this is similar
- to the update to make "git show master..next" walk the history,
- introduced in 1.6.4.
-
- * "git status [-s] --ignored" can be used to list ignored paths.
-
- * "git status -s -b" shows the current branch in the output.
-
- * "git status" learned "--ignore-submodules" option.
-
- * Various "gitweb" enhancements and clean-ups, including syntax
- highlighting, "plackup" support for instaweb, .fcgi suffix to run
- it as FastCGI script, etc.
-
- * The test harness has been updated to produce TAP-friendly output.
-
- * Many documentation improvement patches are also included.
-

-Fixes since v1.7.1
-------------------
-
-All of the fixes in v1.7.1.X maintenance series are included in this
-release, unless otherwise noted.
-
- * We didn't URL decode "file:///path/to/repo" correctly when path/to/repo
- had percent-encoded characters (638794c, 9d2e942, ce83eda, 3c73a1d).
-
- * "git clone" did not configure remote.origin.url correctly for bare
- clones (df61c889).
-
- * "git diff --graph" works better with "--color-words" and other options
- (81fa024..4297c0a).
-
- * "git diff" could show ambiguous abbreviation of blob object names on
- its "index" line (3e5a188).
-
- * "git reset --hard" started from a wrong directory and a working tree in
- a nonstandard location is in use got confused (560fb6a1).
-
- * "git read-tree -m A B" used to switch to branch B while retaining
- local changes added an incorrect cache-tree information (b1f47514).

-Git v1.7.3 Release Notes (draft)
-================================
-
-Updates since v1.7.2
---------------------
-
- * git-gui got various updates and a new maintainer, Pat Thoyts.
-
- * Gitweb allows its configuration to change per each request; it used to
- read the configuration once upon startup.
-
- * When git finds a corrupt object, it now reports the file that contains
- it.
-
- * "git checkout -B <it>" is a shorter way to say "git branch -f <it>"
- followed by "git checkout <it>".
-
- * When "git checkout" or "git merge" refuse to proceed in order to
- protect local modification to your working tree, they used to stop
- after showing just one path that might be lost. They now show all,
- in a format that is easier to read.
-
- * "git clean" learned "-e" ("--exclude") option.
-
- * Hunk headers produced for C# files by "git diff" and friends show more
- relevant context than before.
-
- * diff.ignoresubmodules configuration variable can be used to squelch the
- differences in submodules reported when running commands (e.g. "diff",
- "status", etc.) at the superproject level.
-
- * http.useragent configuration can be used to lie who you are to your
- restrictive firewall.
-
- * "git rebase --strategy <s>" learned "-X" option to pass extra options
- that are understood by the chosen merge strategy.
-
- * "git rebase -i" learned "exec" that you can insert into the insn sheet
- to run a command between its steps.
-
- * "git rebase" between branches that have many binary changes that do
- not conflict should be faster.
-
- * "git rebase -i" peeks into rebase.autosquash configuration and acts as
- if you gave --autosquash from the command line.
-
-
-Also contains various documentation updates.

+GIT v1.5.0.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.0
+------------------
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.
+
+ - The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.
+
+ - Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.
+
+ - Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
+ documents to git-add/git-rm.
+
+ - Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
+ described as core.*; fixed.
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
+ executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
+ bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
+ file.
+
+ - git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
+ that it won't be leaked into the children.
+
+ - segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
+ parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
+ instead.
+
+ - git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
+ that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.
+
+* Tweaks
+
+ - sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
+ packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
+ reverse order. This has been made more efficient.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.0.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.0.1
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
+ links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
+ strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
+ in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
+ merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
+ that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
+ problems have been fixed.
+
+ - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
+ diff across three trees.
+
+ - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
+
+ - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
+ but segfaulted.
+
+ - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
+ slashes after a/ and b/.
+
+ - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
+ message had too long line at the beginning.
+
+ - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
+ running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
+ was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
+ installing as root (especially problematic when the source
+ directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
+
+ - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
+ sorted next to each other.
+
+ - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
+ there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
+ symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
+ now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
+
+ - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
+ internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
+ impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
+ in the repository.
+
+ - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
+ merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
+ when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
+ read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
+ file the symbolic link pointed at.
+
+ - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
+
+ - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
+
+
+* Assorted git-gui fixes.

+GIT v1.5.0.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.0.2
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - 'git.el' honors the commit coding system from the configuration.
+
+ - 'blameview' in contrib/ correctly digs deeper when a line is
+ clicked.
+
+ - 'http-push' correctly makes sure the remote side has leading
+ path. Earlier it started in the middle of the path, and
+ incorrectly.
+
+ - 'git-merge' did not exit with non-zero status when the
+ working tree was dirty and cannot fast forward. It does
+ now.
+
+ - 'cvsexportcommit' does not lose yet-to-be-used message file.
+
+ - int-vs-size_t typefix when running combined diff on files
+ over 2GB long.
+
+ - 'git apply --whitespace=strip' should not touch unmodified
+ lines.
+
+ - 'git-mailinfo' choke when a logical header line was too long.
+
+ - 'git show A..B' did not error out. Negative ref ("not A" in
+ this example) does not make sense for the purpose of the
+ command, so now it errors out.
+
+ - 'git fmt-merge-msg --file' without file parameter did not
+ correctly error out.
+
+ - 'git archimport' barfed upon encountering a commit without
+ summary.
+
+ - 'git index-pack' did not protect itself from getting a short
+ read out of pread(2).
+
+ - 'git http-push' had a few buffer overruns.
+
+ - Build dependency fixes to rebuild fetch.o when other headers
+ change.
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - user-manual updates.
+
+ - Options to 'git remote add' were described insufficiently.
+
+ - Configuration format.suffix was not documented.
+
+ - Other formatting and spelling fixes.

+GIT v1.5.0 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Old news
+--------
+
+This section is for people who are upgrading from ancient
+versions of git. Although all of the changes in this section
+happened before the current v1.4.4 release, they are summarized
+here in the v1.5.0 release notes for people who skipped earlier
+versions.
+
+As of git v1.5.0 there are some optional features that changes
+the repository to allow data to be stored and transferred more
+efficiently. These features are not enabled by default, as they
+will make the repository unusable with older versions of git.
+Specifically, the available options are:
+
+ - There is a configuration variable core.legacyheaders that
+ changes the format of loose objects so that they are more
+ efficient to pack and to send out of the repository over git
+ native protocol, since v1.4.2. However, loose objects
+ written in the new format cannot be read by git older than
+ that version; people fetching from your repository using
+ older clients over dumb transports (e.g. http) using older
+ versions of git will also be affected.
+
+ To let git use the new loose object format, you have to
+ set core.legacyheaders to false.
+
+ - Since v1.4.3, configuration repack.usedeltabaseoffset allows
+ packfile to be created in more space efficient format, which
+ cannot be read by git older than that version.
+
+ To let git use the new format for packfiles, you have to
+ set repack.usedeltabaseoffset to true.
+
+The above two new features are not enabled by default and you
+have to explicitly ask for them, because they make repositories
+unreadable by older versions of git, and in v1.5.0 we still do
+not enable them by default for the same reason. We will change
+this default probably 1 year after 1.4.2's release, when it is
+reasonable to expect everybody to have new enough version of
+git.
+
+ - 'git pack-refs' appeared in v1.4.4; this command allows tags
+ to be accessed much more efficiently than the traditional
+ 'one-file-per-tag' format. Older git-native clients can
+ still fetch from a repository that packed and pruned refs
+ (the server side needs to run the up-to-date version of git),
+ but older dumb transports cannot. Packing of refs is done by
+ an explicit user action, either by use of "git pack-refs
+ --prune" command or by use of "git gc" command.
+
+ - 'git -p' to paginate anything -- many commands do pagination
+ by default on a tty. Introduced between v1.4.1 and v1.4.2;
+ this may surprise old timers.
+
+ - 'git archive' superseded 'git tar-tree' in v1.4.3;
+
+ - 'git cvsserver' was new invention in v1.3.0;
+
+ - 'git repo-config', 'git grep', 'git rebase' and 'gitk' were
+ seriously enhanced during v1.4.0 timeperiod.
+
+ - 'gitweb' became part of git.git during v1.4.0 timeperiod and
+ seriously modified since then.
+
+ - reflog is an v1.4.0 invention. This allows you to name a
+ revision that a branch used to be at (e.g. "git diff
+ master@{yesterday} master" allows you to see changes since
+ yesterday's tip of the branch).
+
+
+Updates in v1.5.0 since v1.4.4 series
+-------------------------------------
+
+* Index manipulation
+
+ - git-add is to add contents to the index (aka "staging area"
+ for the next commit), whether the file the contents happen to
+ be is an existing one or a newly created one.
+
+ - git-add without any argument does not add everything
+ anymore. Use 'git-add .' instead. Also you can add
+ otherwise ignored files with an -f option.
+
+ - git-add tries to be more friendly to users by offering an
+ interactive mode ("git-add -i").
+
+ - git-commit <path> used to refuse to commit if <path> was
+ different between HEAD and the index (i.e. update-index was
+ used on it earlier). This check was removed.
+
+ - git-rm is much saner and safer. It is used to remove paths
+ from both the index file and the working tree, and makes sure
+ you are not losing any local modification before doing so.
+
+ - git-reset <tree> <paths>... can be used to revert index
+ entries for selected paths.
+
+ - git-update-index is much less visible. Many suggestions to
+ use the command in git output and documentation have now been
+ replaced by simpler commands such as "git add" or "git rm".
+
+
+* Repository layout and objects transfer
+
+ - The data for origin repository is stored in the configuration
+ file $GIT_DIR/config, not in $GIT_DIR/remotes/, for newly
+ created clones. The latter is still supported and there is
+ no need to convert your existing repository if you are
+ already comfortable with your workflow with the layout.
+
+ - git-clone always uses what is known as "separate remote"
+ layout for a newly created repository with a working tree.
+
+ A repository with the separate remote layout starts with only
+ one default branch, 'master', to be used for your own
+ development. Unlike the traditional layout that copied all
+ the upstream branches into your branch namespace (while
+ renaming their 'master' to your 'origin'), the new layout
+ puts upstream branches into local "remote-tracking branches"
+ with their own namespace. These can be referenced with names
+ such as "origin/$upstream_branch_name" and are stored in
+ .git/refs/remotes rather than .git/refs/heads where normal
+ branches are stored.
+
+ This layout keeps your own branch namespace less cluttered,
+ avoids name collision with your upstream, makes it possible
+ to automatically track new branches created at the remote
+ after you clone from it, and makes it easier to interact with
+ more than one remote repository (you can use "git remote" to
+ add other repositories to track). There might be some
+ surprises:
+
+ * 'git branch' does not show the remote tracking branches.
+ It only lists your own branches. Use '-r' option to view
+ the tracking branches.
+
+ * If you are forking off of a branch obtained from the
+ upstream, you would have done something like 'git branch
+ my-next next', because traditional layout dropped the
+ tracking branch 'next' into your own branch namespace.
+ With the separate remote layout, you say 'git branch next
+ origin/next', which allows you to use the matching name
+ 'next' for your own branch. It also allows you to track a
+ remote other than 'origin' (i.e. where you initially cloned
+ from) and fork off of a branch from there the same way
+ (e.g. "git branch mingw j6t/master").
+
+ Repositories initialized with the traditional layout continue
+ to work.
+
+ - New branches that appear on the origin side after a clone is
+ made are also tracked automatically. This is done with an
+ wildcard refspec "refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*", which
+ older git does not understand, so if you clone with 1.5.0,
+ you would need to downgrade remote.*.fetch in the
+ configuration file to specify each branch you are interested
+ in individually if you plan to fetch into the repository with
+ older versions of git (but why would you?).
+
+ - Similarly, wildcard refspec "refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/me/*"
+ can be given to "git-push" command to update the tracking
+ branches that is used to track the repository you are pushing
+ from on the remote side.
+
+ - git-branch and git-show-branch know remote tracking branches
+ (use the command line switch "-r" to list only tracked branches).
+
+ - git-push can now be used to delete a remote branch or a tag.
+ This requires the updated git on the remote side (use "git
+ push <remote> :refs/heads/<branch>" to delete "branch").
+
+ - git-push more aggressively keeps the transferred objects
+ packed. Earlier we recommended to monitor amount of loose
+ objects and repack regularly, but you should repack when you
+ accumulated too many small packs this way as well. Updated
+ git-count-objects helps you with this.
+
+ - git-fetch also more aggressively keeps the transferred objects
+ packed. This behavior of git-push and git-fetch can be
+ tweaked with a single configuration transfer.unpacklimit (but
+ usually there should not be any need for a user to tweak it).
+
+ - A new command, git-remote, can help you manage your remote
+ tracking branch definitions.
+
+ - You may need to specify explicit paths for upload-pack and/or
+ receive-pack due to your ssh daemon configuration on the
+ other end. This can now be done via remote.*.uploadpack and
+ remote.*.receivepack configuration.
+
+
+* Bare repositories
+
+ - Certain commands change their behavior in a bare repository
+ (i.e. a repository without associated working tree). We use
+ a fairly conservative heuristic (if $GIT_DIR is ".git", or
+ ends with "/.git", the repository is not bare) to decide if a
+ repository is bare, but "core.bare" configuration variable
+ can be used to override the heuristic when it misidentifies
+ your repository.
+
+ - git-fetch used to complain updating the current branch but
+ this is now allowed for a bare repository. So is the use of
+ 'git-branch -f' to update the current branch.
+
+ - Porcelain-ish commands that require a working tree refuses to
+ work in a bare repository.
+
+
+* Reflog
+
+ - Reflog records the history from the view point of the local
+ repository. In other words, regardless of the real history,
+ the reflog shows the history as seen by one particular
+ repository (this enables you to ask "what was the current
+ revision in _this_ repository, yesterday at 1pm?"). This
+ facility is enabled by default for repositories with working
+ trees, and can be accessed with the "branch@{time}" and
+ "branch@{Nth}" notation.
+
+ - "git show-branch" learned showing the reflog data with the
+ new -g option. "git log" has -g option to view reflog
+ entries in a more verbose manner.
+
+ - git-branch knows how to rename branches and moves existing
+ reflog data from the old branch to the new one.
+
+ - In addition to the reflog support in v1.4.4 series, HEAD
+ reference maintains its own log. "HEAD@{5.minutes.ago}"
+ means the commit you were at 5 minutes ago, which takes
+ branch switching into account. If you want to know where the
+ tip of your current branch was at 5 minutes ago, you need to
+ explicitly say its name (e.g. "master@{5.minutes.ago}") or
+ omit the refname altogether i.e. "@{5.minutes.ago}".
+
+ - The commits referred to by reflog entries are now protected
+ against pruning. The new command "git reflog expire" can be
+ used to truncate older reflog entries and entries that refer
+ to commits that have been pruned away previously with older
+ versions of git.
+
+ Existing repositories that have been using reflog may get
+ complaints from fsck-objects and may not be able to run
+ git-repack, if you had run git-prune from older git; please
+ run "git reflog expire --stale-fix --all" first to remove
+ reflog entries that refer to commits that are no longer in
+ the repository when that happens.
+
+
+* Crufts removal
+
+ - We used to say "old commits are retrievable using reflog and
+ 'master@{yesterday}' syntax as long as you haven't run
+ git-prune". We no longer have to say the latter half of the
+ above sentence, as git-prune does not remove things reachable
+ from reflog entries.
+
+ - There is a toplevel garbage collector script, 'git-gc', that
+ runs periodic cleanup functions, including 'git-repack -a -d',
+ 'git-reflog expire', 'git-pack-refs --prune', and 'git-rerere
+ gc'.
+
+ - The output from fsck ("fsck-objects" is called just "fsck"
+ now, but the old name continues to work) was needlessly
+ alarming in that it warned missing objects that are reachable
+ only from dangling objects. This has been corrected and the
+ output is much more useful.
+
+
+* Detached HEAD
+
+ - You can use 'git-checkout' to check out an arbitrary revision
+ or a tag as well, instead of named branches. This will
+ dissociate your HEAD from the branch you are currently on.
+
+ A typical use of this feature is to "look around". E.g.
+
+ $ git checkout v2.6.16
+ ... compile, test, etc.
+ $ git checkout v2.6.17
+ ... compile, test, etc.
+
+ - After detaching your HEAD, you can go back to an existing
+ branch with usual "git checkout $branch". Also you can
+ start a new branch using "git checkout -b $newbranch" to
+ start a new branch at that commit.
+
+ - You can even pull from other repositories, make merges and
+ commits while your HEAD is detached. Also you can use "git
+ reset" to jump to arbitrary commit, while still keeping your
+ HEAD detached.
+
+ Remember that a detached state is volatile, i.e. it will be forgotten
+ as soon as you move away from it with the checkout or reset command,
+ unless a branch is created from it as mentioned above. It is also
+ possible to rescue a lost detached state from the HEAD reflog.
+
+
+* Packed refs
+
+ - Repositories with hundreds of tags have been paying large
+ overhead, both in storage and in runtime, due to the
+ traditional one-ref-per-file format. A new command,
+ git-pack-refs, can be used to "pack" them in more efficient
+ representation (you can let git-gc do this for you).
+
+ - Clones and fetches over dumb transports are now aware of
+ packed refs and can download from repositories that use
+ them.
+
+
+* Configuration
+
+ - configuration related to color setting are consolidated under
+ color.* namespace (older diff.color.*, status.color.* are
+ still supported).
+
+ - 'git-repo-config' command is accessible as 'git-config' now.
+
+
+* Updated features
+
+ - git-describe uses better criteria to pick a base ref. It
+ used to pick the one with the newest timestamp, but now it
+ picks the one that is topologically the closest (that is,
+ among ancestors of commit C, the ref T that has the shortest
+ output from "git-rev-list T..C" is chosen).
+
+ - git-describe gives the number of commits since the base ref
+ between the refname and the hash suffix. E.g. the commit one
+ before v2.6.20-rc6 in the kernel repository is:
+
+ v2.6.20-rc5-306-ga21b069
+
+ which tells you that its object name begins with a21b069,
+ v2.6.20-rc5 is an ancestor of it (meaning, the commit
+ contains everything -rc5 has), and there are 306 commits
+ since v2.6.20-rc5.
+
+ - git-describe with --abbrev=0 can be used to show only the
+ name of the base ref.
+
+ - git-blame learned a new option, --incremental, that tells it
+ to output the blames as they are assigned. A sample script
+ to use it is also included as contrib/blameview.
+
+ - git-blame starts annotating from the working tree by default.
+
+
+* Less external dependency
+
+ - We no longer require the "merge" program from the RCS suite.
+ All 3-way file-level merges are now done internally.
+
+ - The original implementation of git-merge-recursive which was
+ in Python has been removed; we have a C implementation of it
+ now.
+
+ - git-shortlog is no longer a Perl script. It no longer
+ requires output piped from git-log; it can accept revision
+ parameters directly on the command line.
+
+
+* I18n
+
+ - We have always encouraged the commit message to be encoded in
+ UTF-8, but the users are allowed to use legacy encoding as
+ appropriate for their projects. This will continue to be the
+ case. However, a non UTF-8 commit encoding _must_ be
+ explicitly set with i18n.commitencoding in the repository
+ where a commit is made; otherwise git-commit-tree will
+ complain if the log message does not look like a valid UTF-8
+ string.
+
+ - The value of i18n.commitencoding in the originating
+ repository is recorded in the commit object on the "encoding"
+ header, if it is not UTF-8. git-log and friends notice this,
+ and reencodes the message to the log output encoding when
+ displaying, if they are different. The log output encoding
+ is determined by "git log --encoding=<encoding>",
+ i18n.logoutputencoding configuration, or i18n.commitencoding
+ configuration, in the decreasing order of preference, and
+ defaults to UTF-8.
+
+ - Tools for e-mailed patch application now default to -u
+ behavior; i.e. it always re-codes from the e-mailed encoding
+ to the encoding specified with i18n.commitencoding. This
+ unfortunately forces projects that have happily been using a
+ legacy encoding without setting i18n.commitencoding to set
+ the configuration, but taken with other improvement, please
+ excuse us for this very minor one-time inconvenience.
+
+
+* e-mailed patches
+
+ - See the above I18n section.
+
+ - git-format-patch now enables --binary without being asked.
+ git-am does _not_ default to it, as sending binary patch via
+ e-mail is unusual and is harder to review than textual
+ patches and it is prudent to require the person who is
+ applying the patch to explicitly ask for it.
+
+ - The default suffix for git-format-patch output is now ".patch",
+ not ".txt". This can be changed with --suffix=.txt option,
+ or setting the config variable "format.suffix" to ".txt".
+
+
+* Foreign SCM interfaces
+
+ - git-svn now requires the Perl SVN:: libraries, the
+ command-line backend was too slow and limited.
+
+ - the 'commit' subcommand of git-svn has been renamed to
+ 'set-tree', and 'dcommit' is the recommended replacement for
+ day-to-day work.
+
+ - git fast-import backend.
+
+
+* User support
+
+ - Quite a lot of documentation updates.
+
+ - Bash completion scripts have been updated heavily.
+
+ - Better error messages for often used Porcelainish commands.
+
+ - Git GUI. This is a simple Tk based graphical interface for
+ common Git operations.
+
+
+* Sliding mmap
+
+ - We used to assume that we can mmap the whole packfile while
+ in use, but with a large project this consumes huge virtual
+ memory space and truly huge ones would not fit in the
+ userland address space on 32-bit platforms. We now mmap huge
+ packfile in pieces to avoid this problem.
+
+
+* Shallow clones
+
+ - There is a partial support for 'shallow' repositories that
+ keeps only recent history. A 'shallow clone' is created by
+ specifying how deep that truncated history should be
+ (e.g. "git clone --depth 5 git://some.where/repo.git").
+
+ Currently a shallow repository has number of limitations:
+
+ - Cloning and fetching _from_ a shallow clone are not
+ supported (nor tested -- so they might work by accident but
+ they are not expected to).
+
+ - Pushing from nor into a shallow clone are not expected to
+ work.
+
+ - Merging inside a shallow repository would work as long as a
+ merge base is found in the recent history, but otherwise it
+ will be like merging unrelated histories and may result in
+ huge conflicts.
+
+ but this would be more than adequate for people who want to
+ look at near the tip of a big project with a deep history and
+ send patches in e-mail format.

+GIT v1.5.1.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1
+------------------
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - The --left-right option of rev-list and friends is documented.
+
+ - 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.
+
+ - "git archive" to download from remote site should not
+ require you to be in a git repository, but it incorrectly
+ did.
+
+ - "git apply" ignored -p<n> for "diff --git" formatted
+ patches.
+
+ - "git rerere" recorded a conflict that had one side empty
+ (the other side adds) incorrectly; this made merging in the
+ other direction fail to use previously recorded resolution.
+
+ - t4200 test was broken where "wc -l" pads its output with
+ spaces.
+
+ - "git branch -m old new" to rename branch did not work
+ without a configuration file in ".git/config".
+
+ - The sample hook for notification e-mail was misnamed.
+
+ - gitweb did not show type-changing patch correctly in the
+ blobdiff view.
+
+ - 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.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.1.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1.1
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - "git clone" over http from a repository that has lost the
+ loose refs by running "git pack-refs" were broken (a code to
+ deal with this was added to "git fetch" in v1.5.0, but it
+ was missing from "git clone").
+
+ - "git diff a/ b/" incorrectly fell in "diff between two
+ filesystem objects" codepath, when the user most likely
+ wanted to limit the extent of output to two tracked
+ directories.
+
+ - git-quiltimport had the same bug as we fixed for
+ git-applymbox in v1.5.1.1 -- it gave an alarming "did not
+ have any patch" message (but did not actually fail and was
+ harmless).
+
+ - various git-svn fixes.
+
+ - Sample update hook incorrectly always refused requests to
+ delete branches through push.
+
+ - git-blame on a very long working tree path had buffer
+ overrun problem.
+
+ - git-apply did not like to be fed two patches in a row that created
+ and then modified the same file.
+
+ - git-svn was confused when a non-project was stored directly under
+ trunk/, branches/ and tags/.
+
+ - git-svn wants the Error.pm module that was at least as new
+ as what we ship as part of git; install ours in our private
+ installation location if the one on the system is older.
+
+ - An earlier update to command line integer parameter parser was
+ botched and made 'update-index --cacheinfo' completely useless.
+
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - Various documentation updates from J. Bruce Fields, Frank
+ Lichtenheld, Alex Riesen and others. Andrew Ruder started a
+ war on undocumented options.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.1.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1.2
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - git-add tried to optimize by finding common leading
+ directories across its arguments but botched, causing very
+ confused behaviour.
+
+ - unofficial rpm.spec file shipped with git was letting
+ ETC_GITCONFIG set to /usr/etc/gitconfig. Tweak the official
+ Makefile to make it harder for distro people to make the
+ same mistake, by setting the variable to /etc/gitconfig if
+ prefix is set to /usr.
+
+ - git-svn inconsistently stripped away username from the URL
+ only when svnsync_props was in use.
+
+ - git-svn got confused when handling symlinks on Mac OS.
+
+ - git-send-email was not quoting recipient names that have
+ period '.' in them. Also it did not allow overriding
+ envelope sender, which made it impossible to send patches to
+ certain subscriber-only lists.
+
+ - built-in write_tree() routine had a sequence that renamed a
+ file that is still open, which some systems did not like.
+
+ - when memory is very tight, sliding mmap code to read
+ packfiles incorrectly closed the fd that was still being
+ used to read the pack.
+
+ - import-tars contributed front-end for fastimport was passing
+ wrong directory modes without checking.
+
+ - git-fastimport trusted its input too much and allowed to
+ create corrupt tree objects with entries without a name.
+
+ - git-fetch needlessly barfed when too long reflog action
+ description was given by the caller.
+
+Also contains various documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.1.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1.3
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - "git-http-fetch" did not work around a bug in libcurl
+ earlier than 7.16 (curl_multi_remove_handle() was broken).
+
+ - "git cvsserver" handles a file that was once removed and
+ then added again correctly.
+
+ - import-tars script (in contrib/) handles GNU tar archives
+ that contain pathnames longer than 100 bytes (long-link
+ extension) correctly.
+
+ - xdelta test program did not build correctly.
+
+ - gitweb sometimes tried incorrectly to apply function to
+ decode utf8 twice, resulting in corrupt output.
+
+ - "git blame -C" mishandled text at the end of a group of
+ lines.
+
+ - "git log/rev-list --boundary" did not produce output
+ correctly without --left-right option.
+
+ - Many documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.1.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1.4
+--------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - git-send-email did not understand aliases file for mutt, which
+ allows leading whitespaces.
+
+ - git-format-patch emitted Content-Type and Content-Transfer-Encoding
+ headers for non ASCII contents, but failed to add MIME-Version.
+
+ - git-name-rev had a buffer overrun with a deep history.
+
+ - contributed script import-tars did not get the directory in
+ tar archives interpreted correctly.
+
+ - git-svn was reported to segfault for many people on list and
+ #git; hopefully this has been fixed.
+
+ - "git-svn clone" does not try to minimize the URL
+ (i.e. connect to higher level hierarchy) by default, as this
+ can prevent clone to fail if only part of the repository
+ (e.g. 'trunk') is open to public.
+
+ - "git checkout branch^0" did not detach the head when you are
+ already on 'branch'; backported the fix from the 'master'.
+
+ - "git-config section.var" did not correctly work when
+ existing configuration file had both [section] and [section "name"]
+ next to each other.
+
+ - "git clone ../other-directory" was fooled if the current
+ directory $PWD points at is a symbolic link.
+
+ - (build) tree_entry_extract() function was both static inline
+ and extern, which caused trouble compiling with Forte12
+ compilers on Sun.
+
+ - Many many documentation fixes and updates.

+
+ - "git-svn clone" does not try to minimize the URL

--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.1 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.5.0
+--------------------
+
+* Deprecated commands and options.
+
+ - git-diff-stages and git-resolve have been removed.
+
+* New commands and options.
+
+ - "git log" and friends take --reverse, which instructs them
+ to give their output in the order opposite from their usual.
+ They typically output from new to old, but with this option
+ their output would read from old to new. "git shortlog"
+ usually lists older commits first, but with this option,
+ they are shown from new to old.
+
+ - "git log --pretty=format:<string>" to allow more flexible
+ custom log output.
+
+ - "git diff" learned --ignore-space-at-eol. This is a weaker
+ form of --ignore-space-change.
+
+ - "git diff --no-index pathA pathB" can be used as diff
+ replacement with git specific enhancements.
+
+ - "git diff --no-index" can read from '-' (standard input).
+
+ - "git diff" also learned --exit-code to exit with non-zero
+ status when it found differences. In the future we might
+ want to make this the default but that would be a rather big
+ backward incompatible change; it will stay as an option for
+ now.
+
+ - "git diff --quiet" is --exit-code with output turned off,
+ meant for scripted use to quickly determine if there is any
+ tree-level difference.
+
+ - Textual patch generation with "git diff" without -w/-b
+ option has been significantly optimized. "git blame" got
+ faster because of the same change.
+
+ - "git log" and "git rev-list" has been optimized
+ significantly when they are used with pathspecs.
+
+ - "git branch --track" can be used to set up configuration
+ variables to help it easier to base your work on branches
+ you track from a remote site.
+
+ - "git format-patch --attach" now emits attachments. Use
+ --inline to get an inlined multipart/mixed.
+
+ - "git name-rev" learned --refs=<pattern>, to limit the tags
+ used for naming the given revisions only to the ones
+ matching the given pattern.
+
+ - "git remote update" is to run "git fetch" for defined remotes
+ to update tracking branches.
+
+ - "git cvsimport" can now take '-d' to talk with a CVS
+ repository different from what are recorded in CVS/Root
+ (overriding it with environment CVSROOT does not work).
+
+ - "git bundle" can help sneaker-netting your changes between
+ repositories.
+
+ - "git mergetool" can help 3-way file-level conflict
+ resolution with your favorite graphical merge tools.
+
+ - A new configuration "core.symlinks" can be used to disable
+ symlinks on filesystems that do not support them; they are
+ checked out as regular files instead.
+
+ - You can name a commit object with its first line of the
+ message. The syntax to use is ':/message text'. E.g.
+
+ $ git show ":/object name: introduce ':/<oneline prefix>' notation"
+
+ means the same thing as:
+
+ $ git show 28a4d940443806412effa246ecc7768a21553ec7
+
+ - "git bisect" learned a new command "run" that takes a script
+ to run after each revision is checked out to determine if it
+ is good or bad, to automate the bisection process.
+
+ - "git log" family learned a new traversal option --first-parent,
+ which does what the name suggests.
+
+
+* Updated behavior of existing commands.
+
+ - "git-merge-recursive" used to barf when there are more than
+ one common ancestors for the merge, and merging them had a
+ rename/rename conflict. This has been fixed.
+
+ - "git fsck" does not barf on corrupt loose objects.
+
+ - "git rm" does not remove newly added files without -f.
+
+ - "git archimport" allows remapping when coming up with git
+ branch names from arch names.
+
+ - git-svn got almost a rewrite.
+
+ - core.autocrlf configuration, when set to 'true', makes git
+ to convert CRLF at the end of lines in text files to LF when
+ reading from the filesystem, and convert in reverse when
+ writing to the filesystem. The variable can be set to
+ 'input', in which case the conversion happens only while
+ reading from the filesystem but files are written out with
+ LF at the end of lines. Currently, which paths to consider
+ 'text' (i.e. be subjected to the autocrlf mechanism) is
+ decided purely based on the contents, but the plan is to
+ allow users to explicitly override this heuristic based on
+ paths.
+
+ - The behavior of 'git-apply', when run in a subdirectory,
+ without --index nor --cached were inconsistent with that of
+ the command with these options. This was fixed to match the
+ behavior with --index. A patch that is meant to be applied
+ with -p1 from the toplevel of the project tree can be
+ applied with any custom -p<n> option. A patch that is not
+ relative to the toplevel needs to be applied with -p<n>
+ option with or without --index (or --cached).
+
+ - "git diff" outputs a trailing HT when pathnames have embedded
+ SP on +++/--- header lines, in order to help "GNU patch" to
+ parse its output. "git apply" was already updated to accept
+ this modified output format since ce74618d (Sep 22, 2006).
+
+ - "git cvsserver" runs hooks/update and honors its exit status.
+
+ - "git cvsserver" can be told to send everything with -kb.
+
+ - "git diff --check" also honors the --color output option.
+
+ - "git name-rev" used to stress the fact that a ref is a tag too
+ much, by saying something like "v1.2.3^0~22". It now says
+ "v1.2.3~22" in such a case (it still says "v1.2.3^0" if it does
+ not talk about an ancestor of the commit that is tagged, which
+ makes sense).
+
+ - "git rev-list --boundary" now shows boundary markers for the
+ commits omitted by --max-age and --max-count condition.
+
+ - The configuration mechanism now reads $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig.
+
+ - "git apply --verbose" shows what preimage lines were wanted
+ when it couldn't find them.
+
+ - "git status" in a read-only repository got a bit saner.
+
+ - "git fetch" (hence "git clone" and "git pull") are less
+ noisy when the output does not go to tty.
+
+ - "git fetch" between repositories with many refs were slow
+ even when there are not many changes that needed
+ transferring. This has been sped up by partially rewriting
+ the heaviest parts in C.
+
+ - "git mailinfo" which splits an e-mail into a patch and the
+ meta-information was rewritten, thanks to Don Zickus. It
+ handles nested multipart better. The command was broken for
+ a brief period on 'master' branch since 1.5.0 but the
+ breakage is fixed now.
+
+ - send-email learned configurable bcc and chain-reply-to.
+
+ - "git remote show $remote" also talks about branches that
+ would be pushed if you run "git push remote".
+
+ - Using objects from packs is now seriously optimized by clever
+ use of a cache. This should be most noticeable in git-log
+ family of commands that involve reading many tree objects.
+ In addition, traversing revisions while filtering changes
+ with pathspecs is made faster by terminating the comparison
+ between the trees as early as possible.
+
+
+* Hooks
+
+ - The part to send out notification e-mails was removed from
+ the sample update hook, as it was not an appropriate place
+ to do so. The proper place to do this is the new post-receive
+ hook. An example hook has been added to contrib/hooks/.
+
+
+* Others
+
+ - git-revert, git-gc and git-cherry-pick are now built-ins.
+
+Fixes since v1.5.0
+------------------
+
+These are all in v1.5.0.x series.
+
+* Documentation updates
+
+ - Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.
+
+ - The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.
+
+ - Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.
+
+ - Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
+ documents to git-add/git-rm.
+
+ - Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
+ described as core.*; fixed.
+
+ - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations.
+
+ - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation.
+
+ - user-manual updates.
+
+ - Options to 'git remote add' were described insufficiently.
+
+ - Configuration format.suffix was not documented.
+
+ - Other formatting and spelling fixes.
+
+ - user-manual has better cross references.
+
+ - gitweb installation/deployment procedure is now documented.
+
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - git-upload-pack closes unused pipe ends; earlier this caused
+ many zombies to hang around.
+
+ - git-rerere was recording the contents of earlier hunks
+ duplicated in later hunks. This prevented resolving the same
+ conflict when performing the same merge the other way around.
+
+ - git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
+ executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
+ bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
+ file.
+
+ - git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
+ that it won't be leaked into the children.
+
+ - segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
+ parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
+ instead.
+
+ - git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
+ that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.
+
+ - Automated merge conflict handling when changes to symbolic
+ links conflicted were completely broken. The merge-resolve
+ strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it
+ in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy,
+ merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path
+ that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these
+ problems have been fixed.
+
+ - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined
+ diff across three trees.
+
+ - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris.
+
+ - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out
+ but segfaulted.
+
+ - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra
+ slashes after a/ and b/.
+
+ - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit
+ message had too long line at the beginning.
+
+ - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything
+ running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This
+ was inconvenient when building as yourself and then
+ installing as root (especially problematic when the source
+ directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody).
+
+ - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that
+ sorted next to each other.
+
+ - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if
+ there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a
+ symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command
+ now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks.
+
+ - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments
+ internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it
+ impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs
+ in the repository.
+
+ - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted
+ merge were not reading the working tree version correctly
+ when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have
+ read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular
+ file the symbolic link pointed at.
+
+ - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name.
+
+ - 'git.el' honors the commit coding system from the configuration.
+
+ - 'blameview' in contrib/ correctly digs deeper when a line is
+ clicked.
+
+ - 'http-push' correctly makes sure the remote side has leading
+ path. Earlier it started in the middle of the path, and
+ incorrectly.
+
+ - 'git-merge' did not exit with non-zero status when the
+ working tree was dirty and cannot fast forward. It does
+ now.
+
+ - 'cvsexportcommit' does not lose yet-to-be-used message file.
+
+ - int-vs-size_t typefix when running combined diff on files
+ over 2GB long.
+
+ - 'git apply --whitespace=strip' should not touch unmodified
+ lines.
+
+ - 'git-mailinfo' choke when a logical header line was too long.
+
+ - 'git show A..B' did not error out. Negative ref ("not A" in
+ this example) does not make sense for the purpose of the
+ command, so now it errors out.
+
+ - 'git fmt-merge-msg --file' without file parameter did not
+ correctly error out.
+
+ - 'git archimport' barfed upon encountering a commit without
+ summary.
+
+ - 'git index-pack' did not protect itself from getting a short
+ read out of pread(2).
+
+ - 'git http-push' had a few buffer overruns.
+
+ - Build dependency fixes to rebuild fetch.o when other headers
+ change.
+
+ - git.el does not add duplicate sign-off lines.
+
+ - git-commit shows the full stat of the resulting commit, not
+ just about the files in the current directory, when run from
+ a subdirectory.
+
+ - "git-checkout -m '@{8 hours ago}'" had a funny failure from
+ eval; fixed.
+
+ - git-merge (hence git-pull) did not refuse fast-forwarding
+ when the working tree had local changes that would have
+ conflicted with it.
+
+ - a handful small fixes to gitweb.
+
+ - build procedure for user-manual is fixed not to require locally
+ installed stylesheets.
+
+ - "git commit $paths" on paths whose earlier contents were
+ already updated in the index were failing out.
+
+
+* Tweaks
+
+ - sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
+ packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
+ reverse order. This has been made more efficient.

+GIT v1.5.2.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2
+------------------
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - Temporary files that are used when invoking external diff
+ programs did not tolerate a long TMPDIR.
+
+ - git-daemon did not notice when it could not write into its
+ pid file.
+
+ - git-status did not honor core.excludesFile configuration like
+ git-add did.
+
+ - git-annotate did not work from a subdirectory while
+ git-blame did.
+
+ - git-cvsserver should have disabled access to a repository
+ with "gitcvs.pserver.enabled = false" set even when
+ "gitcvs.enabled = true" was set at the same time. It
+ didn't.
+
+ - git-cvsimport did not work correctly in a repository with
+ its branch heads were packed with pack-refs.
+
+ - ident unexpansion to squash "$Id: xxx $" that is in the
+ repository copy removed incorrect number of bytes.
+
+ - git-svn misbehaved when the subversion repository did not
+ provide MD5 checksums for files.
+
+ - git rebase (and git am) misbehaved on commits that have '\n'
+ (literally backslash and en, not a linefeed) in the title.
+
+ - code to decode base85 used in binary patches had one error
+ return codepath wrong.
+
+ - RFC2047 Q encoding output by git-format-patch used '_' for a
+ space, which is not understood by some programs. It uses =20
+ which is safer.
+
+ - git-fastimport --import-marks was broken; fixed.
+
+ - A lot of documentation updates, clarifications and fixes.

+GIT v1.5.2.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2.1
+--------------------
+
+* Usability fix
+
+ - git-gui is shipped with its updated blame interface. It is
+ rumored that the older one was not just unusable but was
+ active health hazard, but this one is actually pretty.
+ Please see for yourself.
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - "git checkout fubar" was utterly confused when there is a
+ branch fubar and a tag fubar at the same time. It correctly
+ checks out the branch fubar now.
+
+ - "git clone /path/foo" to clone a local /path/foo.git
+ repository left an incorrect configuration.
+
+ - "git send-email" correctly unquotes RFC 2047 quoted names in
+ the patch-email before using their values.
+
+ - We did not accept number of seconds since epoch older than
+ year 2000 as a valid timestamp. We now interpret positive
+ integers more than 8 digits as such, which allows us to
+ express timestamps more recent than March 1973.
+
+ - git-cvsimport did not work when you have GIT_DIR to point
+ your repository at a nonstandard location.
+
+ - Some systems (notably, Solaris) lack hstrerror() to make
+ h_errno human readable; prepare a replacement
+ implementation.
+
+ - .gitignore file listed git-core.spec but what we generate is
+ git.spec, and nobody noticed for a long time.
+
+ - "git-merge-recursive" does not try to run file level merge
+ on binary files.
+
+ - "git-branch --track" did not create tracking configuration
+ correctly when the branch name had slash in it.
+
+ - The email address of the user specified with user.email
+ configuration was overridden by EMAIL environment variable.
+
+ - The tree parser did not warn about tree entries with
+ nonsense file modes, and assumed they must be blobs.
+
+ - "git log -z" without any other request to generate diff still
+ invoked the diff machinery, wasting cycles.
+
+* Documentation
+
+ - Many updates to fix stale or missing documentation.
+
+ - Although our documentation was primarily meant to be formatted
+ with AsciiDoc7, formatting with AsciiDoc8 is supported better.

+GIT v1.5.2.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2.2
+--------------------
+
+ * Bugfixes
+
+ - Version 2 pack index format was introduced in version 1.5.2
+ to support pack files that has offset that cannot be
+ represented in 32-bit. The runtime code to validate such
+ an index mishandled such an index for an empty pack.
+
+ - Commit walkers (most notably, fetch over http protocol)
+ tried to traverse commit objects contained in trees (aka
+ subproject); they shouldn't.
+
+ - A build option NO_R_TO_GCC_LINKER was not explained in Makefile
+ comment correctly.
+
+ * Documentation Fixes and Updates
+
+ - git-config --regexp was not documented properly.
+
+ - git-repack -a was not documented properly.
+
+ - git-remote -n was not documented properly.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.2.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2.3
+--------------------
+
+ * Bugfixes
+
+ - "git-gui" bugfixes, including a handful fixes to run it
+ better on Cygwin/MSYS.
+
+ - "git checkout" failed to switch back and forth between
+ branches, one of which has "frotz -> xyzzy" symlink and
+ file "xyzzy/filfre", while the other one has a file
+ "frotz/filfre".
+
+ - "git prune" used to segfault upon seeing a commit that is
+ referred to by a tree object (aka "subproject").
+
+ - "git diff --name-status --no-index" mishandled an added file.
+
+ - "git apply --reverse --whitespace=warn" still complained
+ about whitespaces that a forward application would have
+ introduced.
+
+ * Documentation Fixes and Updates
+
+ - A handful documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.2.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2.4
+--------------------
+
+ * Bugfixes
+
+ - "git add -u" had a serious data corruption problem in one
+ special case (when the changes to a subdirectory's files
+ consist only deletion of files).
+
+ - "git add -u <path>" did not work from a subdirectory.
+
+ - "git apply" left an empty directory after all its files are
+ renamed away.
+
+ - "git $anycmd foo/bar", when there is a file 'foo' in the
+ working tree, complained that "git $anycmd foo/bar --" form
+ should be used to disambiguate between revs and files,
+ which was completely bogus.
+
+ - "git checkout-index" and other commands that checks out
+ files to the work tree tried unlink(2) on directories,
+ which is a sane thing to do on sane systems, but not on
+ Solaris when you are root.
+
+ * Documentation Fixes and Updates
+
+ - A handful documentation fixes.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.2 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.5.1
+--------------------
+
+* Plumbing level superproject support.
+
+ You can include a subdirectory that has an independent git
+ repository in your index and tree objects of your project
+ ("superproject"). This plumbing (i.e. "core") level
+ superproject support explicitly excludes recursive behaviour.
+
+ The "subproject" entries in the index and trees of a superproject
+ are incompatible with older versions of git. Experimenting with
+ the plumbing level support is encouraged, but be warned that
+ unless everybody in your project updates to this release or
+ later, using this feature would make your project
+ inaccessible by people with older versions of git.
+
+* Plumbing level gitattributes support.
+
+ The gitattributes mechanism allows you to add 'attributes' to
+ paths in your project, and affect the way certain git
+ operations work. Currently you can influence if a path is
+ considered a binary or text (the former would be treated by
+ 'git diff' not to produce textual output; the latter can go
+ through the line endings conversion process in repositories
+ with core.autocrlf set), expand and unexpand '$Id$' keyword
+ with blob object name, specify a custom 3-way merge driver,
+ and specify a custom diff driver. You can also apply
+ arbitrary filter to contents on check-in/check-out codepath
+ but this feature is an extremely sharp-edged razor and needs
+ to be handled with caution (do not use it unless you
+ understand the earlier mailing list discussion on keyword
+ expansion). These conversions apply when checking files in
+ or out, and exporting via git-archive.
+
+* The packfile format now optionally supports 64-bit index.
+
+ This release supports the "version 2" format of the .idx
+ file. This is automatically enabled when a huge packfile
+ needs more than 32-bit to express offsets of objects in the
+ pack.
+
+* Comes with an updated git-gui 0.7.1
+
+* Updated gitweb:
+
+ - can show combined diff for merges;
+ - uses font size of user's preference, not hardcoded in pixels;
+ - can now 'grep';
+
+* New commands and options.
+
+ - "git bisect start" can optionally take a single bad commit and
+ zero or more good commits on the command line.
+
+ - "git shortlog" can optionally be told to wrap its output.
+
+ - "subtree" merge strategy allows another project to be merged in as
+ your subdirectory.
+
+ - "git format-patch" learned a new --subject-prefix=<string>
+ option, to override the built-in "[PATCH]".
+
+ - "git add -u" is a quick way to do the first stage of "git
+ commit -a" (i.e. update the index to match the working
+ tree); it obviously does not make a commit.
+
+ - "git clean" honors a new configuration, "clean.requireforce". When
+ set to true, this makes "git clean" a no-op, preventing you
+ from losing files by typing "git clean" when you meant to
+ say "make clean". You can still say "git clean -f" to
+ override this.
+
+ - "git log" family of commands learned --date={local,relative,default}
+ option. --date=relative is synonym to the --relative-date.
+ --date=local gives the timestamp in local timezone.
+
+* Updated behavior of existing commands.
+
+ - When $GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL or $GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL is not set
+ but $EMAIL is set, the latter is used as a substitute.
+
+ - "git diff --stat" shows size of preimage and postimage blobs
+ for binary contents. Earlier it only said "Bin".
+
+ - "git lost-found" shows stuff that are unreachable except
+ from reflogs.
+
+ - "git checkout branch^0" now detaches HEAD at the tip commit
+ on the named branch, instead of just switching to the
+ branch (use "git checkout branch" to switch to the branch,
+ as before).
+
+ - "git bisect next" can be used after giving only a bad commit
+ without giving a good one (this starts bisection half-way to
+ the root commit). We used to refuse to operate without a
+ good and a bad commit.
+
+ - "git push", when pushing into more than one repository, does
+ not stop at the first error.
+
+ - "git archive" does not insist you to give --format parameter
+ anymore; it defaults to "tar".
+
+ - "git cvsserver" can use backends other than sqlite.
+
+ - "gitview" (in contrib/ section) learned to better support
+ "git-annotate".
+
+ - "git diff $commit1:$path2 $commit2:$path2" can now report
+ mode changes between the two blobs.
+
+ - Local "git fetch" from a repository whose object store is
+ one of the alternates (e.g. fetching from the origin in a
+ repository created with "git clone -l -s") avoids
+ downloading objects unnecessarily.
+
+ - "git blame" uses .mailmap to canonicalize the author name
+ just like "git shortlog" does.
+
+ - "git pack-objects" pays attention to pack.depth
+ configuration variable.
+
+ - "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" does not use .msg file in
+ the working tree to prepare commit message; instead it uses
+ $GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG as other commands do.
+
+* Builds
+
+ - git-p4import has never been installed; now there is an
+ installation option to do so.
+
+ - gitk and git-gui can be configured out.
+
+ - Generated documentation pages automatically get version
+ information from GIT_VERSION.
+
+ - Parallel build with "make -j" descending into subdirectory
+ was fixed.
+
+* Performance Tweaks
+
+ - Optimized "git-rev-list --bisect" (hence "git-bisect").
+
+ - Optimized "git-add $path" in a large directory, most of
+ whose contents are ignored.
+
+ - Optimized "git-diff-tree" for reduced memory footprint.
+
+ - The recursive merge strategy updated a worktree file that
+ was changed identically in two branches, when one of them
+ renamed it. We do not do that when there is no rename, so
+ match that behaviour. This avoids excessive rebuilds.
+
+ - The default pack depth has been increased to 50, as the
+ recent addition of delta_base_cache makes deeper delta chains
+ much less expensive to access. Depending on the project, it was
+ reported that this reduces the resulting pack file by 10%
+ or so.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.5.1
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.1 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - Switching branches with "git checkout" refused to work when
+ a path changes from a file to a directory between the
+ current branch and the new branch, in order not to lose
+ possible local changes in the directory that is being turned
+ into a file with the switch. We now allow such a branch
+ switch after making sure that there is no locally modified
+ file nor un-ignored file in the directory. This has not
+ been backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an
+ intrusive change.
+
+ - Merging branches that have a file in one and a directory in
+ another at the same path used to get quite confused. We
+ handle such a case a bit more carefully, even though that is
+ still left as a conflict for the user to sort out. This
+ will not be backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an
+ intrusive change.
+
+ - git-fetch had trouble with a remote with insanely large number
+ of refs.
+
+ - "git clean -d -X" now does not remove non-excluded directories.
+
+ - rebasing (without -m) a series that changes a symlink to a directory
+ in the middle of a path confused git-apply greatly and refused to
+ operate.

+GIT v1.5.3.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3
+------------------
+
+This is solely to fix the generated RPM's dependencies. We used
+to have git-p4 package but we do not anymore. As suggested on
+the mailing list, this release makes git-core "Obsolete" git-p4,
+so that yum update would not complain.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.3.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.1
+--------------------
+
+ * git-push sent thin packs by default, which was not good for
+ the public distribution server (no point in saving transfer
+ while pushing; no point in making the resulting pack less
+ optimum).
+
+ * git-svn sometimes terminated with "Malformed network data" when
+ talking over svn:// protocol.
+
+ * git-send-email re-issued the same message-id about 10% of the
+ time if you fired off 30 messages within a single second.
+
+ * git-stash was not terminating the log message of commits it
+ internally creates with LF.
+
+ * git-apply failed to check the size of the patch hunk when its
+ beginning part matched the remainder of the preimage exactly,
+ even though the preimage recorded in the hunk was much larger
+ (therefore the patch should not have applied), leading to a
+ segfault.
+
+ * "git rm foo && git commit foo" complained that 'foo' needs to
+ be added first, instead of committing the removal, which was a
+ nonsense.
+
+ * git grep -c said "/dev/null: 0".
+
+ * git-add -u failed to recognize a blob whose type changed
+ between the index and the work tree.
+
+ * The limit to rename detection has been tightened a lot to
+ reduce performance problems with a huge change.
+
+ * cvsimport and svnimport barfed when the input tried to move
+ a tag.
+
+ * "git apply -pN" did not chop the right number of directories.
+
+ * "git svnimport" did not like SVN tags with funny characters in them.
+
+ * git-gui 0.8.3, with assorted fixes, including:
+
+ - font-chooser on X11 was unusable with large number of fonts;
+ - a diff that contained a deleted symlink made it barf;
+ - an untracked symbolic link to a directory made it fart;
+ - a file with % in its name made it vomit;
+
+
+Documentation updates
+---------------------
+
+User manual has been somewhat restructured. I think the new
+organization is much easier to read.

+GIT v1.5.3.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.2
+--------------------
+
+ * git-quiltimport did not like it when a patch described in the
+ series file does not exist.
+
+ * p4 importer missed executable bit in some cases.
+
+ * The default shell on some FreeBSD did not execute the
+ argument parsing code correctly and made git unusable.
+
+ * git-svn incorrectly spawned pager even when the user
+ explicitly asked not to.
+
+ * sample post-receive hook overquoted the envelope sender
+ value.
+
+ * git-am got confused when the patch contained a change that is
+ only about type and not contents.
+
+ * git-mergetool did not show our and their version of the
+ conflicted file when started from a subdirectory of the
+ project.
+
+ * git-mergetool did not pass correct options when invoking diff3.
+
+ * git-log sometimes invoked underlying "diff" machinery
+ unnecessarily.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.3.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.3
+--------------------
+
+ * Change to "git-ls-files" in v1.5.3.3 that was introduced to support
+ partial commit of removal better had a segfaulting bug, which was
+ diagnosed and fixed by Keith and Carl.
+
+ * Performance improvements for rename detection has been backported
+ from the 'master' branch.
+
+ * "git-for-each-ref --format='%(numparent)'" was not working
+ correctly at all, and --format='%(parent)' was not working for
+ merge commits.
+
+ * Sample "post-receive-hook" incorrectly sent out push
+ notification e-mails marked as "From: " the committer of the
+ commit that happened to be at the tip of the branch that was
+ pushed, not from the person who pushed.
+
+ * "git-remote" did not exit non-zero status upon error.
+
+ * "git-add -i" did not respond very well to EOF from tty nor
+ bogus input.
+
+ * "git-rebase -i" squash subcommand incorrectly made the
+ author of later commit the author of resulting commit,
+ instead of taking from the first one in the squashed series.
+
+ * "git-stash apply --index" was not documented.
+
+ * autoconfiguration learned that "ar" command is found as "gas" on
+ some systems.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.3.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.4
+--------------------
+
+ * Comes with git-gui 0.8.4.
+
+ * "git-config" silently ignored options after --list; now it will
+ error out with a usage message.
+
+ * "git-config --file" failed if the argument used a relative path
+ as it changed directories before opening the file.
+
+ * "git-config --file" now displays a proper error message if it
+ cannot read the file specified on the command line.
+
+ * "git-config", "git-diff", "git-apply" failed if run from a
+ subdirectory with relative GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE set.
+
+ * "git-blame" crashed if run during a merge conflict.
+
+ * "git-add -i" did not handle single line hunks correctly.
+
+ * "git-rebase -i" and "git-stash apply" failed if external diff
+ drivers were used for one or more files in a commit. They now
+ avoid calling the external diff drivers.
+
+ * "git-log --follow" did not work unless diff generation (e.g. -p)
+ was also requested.
+
+ * "git-log --follow -B" did not work at all. Fixed.
+
+ * "git-log -M -B" did not correctly handle cases of very large files
+ being renamed and replaced by very small files in the same commit.
+
+ * "git-log" printed extra newlines between commits when a diff
+ was generated internally (e.g. -S or --follow) but not displayed.
+
+ * "git-push" error message is more helpful when pushing to a
+ repository with no matching refs and none specified.
+
+ * "git-push" now respects + (force push) on wildcard refspecs,
+ matching the behavior of git-fetch.
+
+ * "git-filter-branch" now updates the working directory when it
+ has finished filtering the current branch.
+
+ * "git-instaweb" no longer fails on Mac OS X.
+
+ * "git-cvsexportcommit" didn't always create new parent directories
+ before trying to create new child directories. Fixed.
+
+ * "git-fetch" printed a scary (but bogus) error message while
+ fetching a tag that pointed to a tree or blob. The error did
+ not impact correctness, only user perception. The bogus error
+ is no longer printed.
+
+ * "git-ls-files --ignored" did not properly descend into non-ignored
+ directories that themselves contained ignored files if d_type
+ was not supported by the filesystem. This bug impacted systems
+ such as AFS. Fixed.
+
+ * Git segfaulted when reading an invalid .gitattributes file. Fixed.
+
+ * post-receive-email example hook was fixed for non-fast-forward
+ updates.
+
+ * Documentation updates for supported (but previously undocumented)
+ options of "git-archive" and "git-reflog".
+
+ * "make clean" no longer deletes the configure script that ships
+ with the git tarball, making multiple architecture builds easier.
+
+ * "git-remote show origin" spewed a warning message from Perl
+ when no remote is defined for the current branch via
+ branch.<name>.remote configuration settings.
+
+ * Building with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER excessively rebuilt contents
+ of perl/ subdirectory by rewriting perl.mak.
+
+ * http.sslVerify configuration settings were not used in scripted
+ Porcelains.
+
+ * "git-add" leaked a bit of memory while scanning for files to add.
+
+ * A few workarounds to squelch false warnings from recent gcc have
+ been added.
+
+ * "git-send-pack $remote frotz" segfaulted when there is nothing
+ named 'frotz' on the local end.
+
+ * "git-rebase --interactive" did not handle its "--strategy" option
+ properly.

+GIT v1.5.3.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.5
+--------------------
+
+ * git-cvsexportcommit handles root commits better.
+
+ * git-svn dcommit used to clobber when sending a series of
+ patches.
+
+ * git-svn dcommit failed after attempting to rebase when
+ started with a dirty index; now it stops upfront.
+
+ * git-grep sometimes refused to work when your index was
+ unmerged.
+
+ * "git-grep -A1 -B2" acted as if it was told to run "git -A1 -B21".
+
+ * git-hash-object did not honor configuration variables, such as
+ core.compression.
+
+ * git-index-pack choked on a huge pack on 32-bit machines, even when
+ large file offsets are supported.
+
+ * atom feeds from git-web said "10" for the month of November.
+
+ * a memory leak in commit walker was plugged.
+
+ * When git-send-email inserted the original author's From:
+ address in body, it did not mark the message with
+ Content-type: as needed.
+
+ * git-revert and git-cherry-pick incorrectly refused to start
+ when the work tree was dirty.
+
+ * git-clean did not honor core.excludesfile configuration.
+
+ * git-add mishandled ".gitignore" files when applying them to
+ subdirectories.
+
+ * While importing a too branchy history, git-fastimport did not
+ honor delta depth limit properly.
+
+ * Support for zlib implementations that lack ZLIB_VERNUM and definition
+ of deflateBound() has been added.
+
+ * Quite a lot of documentation clarifications.

+GIT v1.5.3.7 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.6
+--------------------
+
+ * git-send-email added 8-bit contents to the payload without
+ marking it as 8-bit in a CTE header.
+
+ * "git-bundle create a.bndl HEAD" dereferenced the symref and
+ did not record the ref as 'HEAD'; this prevented a bundle
+ from being used as a normal source of git-clone.
+
+ * The code to reject nonsense command line of the form
+ "git-commit -a paths..." and "git-commit --interactive
+ paths..." were broken.
+
+ * Adding a signature that is not ASCII-only to an original
+ commit that is ASCII-only would make the result non-ASCII.
+ "git-format-patch -s" did not mark such a message correctly
+ with MIME encoding header.
+
+ * git-add sometimes did not mark the resulting index entry
+ stat-clean. This affected only cases when adding the
+ contents with the same length as the previously staged
+ contents, and the previous staging made the index entry
+ "racily clean".
+
+ * git-commit did not honor GIT_INDEX_FILE the user had in the
+ environment.
+
+ * When checking out a revision, git-checkout did not report where the
+ updated HEAD is if you happened to have a file called HEAD in the
+ work tree.
+
+ * "git-rev-list --objects" mishandled a tree that points at a
+ submodule.
+
+ * "git cvsimport" was not ready for packed refs that "git gc" can
+ produce and gave incorrect results.
+
+ * Many scripted Porcelains were confused when you happened to have a
+ file called "HEAD" in your work tree.
+
+Also it contains updates to the user manual and documentation.

+GIT v1.5.3.8 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3.7
+--------------------
+
+ * Some documentation used "email.com" as an example domain.
+
+ * git-svn fix to handle funky branch and project names going over
+ http/https correctly.
+
+ * git-svn fix to tone down a needlessly alarming warning message.
+
+ * git-clone did not correctly report errors while fetching over http.
+
+ * git-send-email added redundant Message-Id: header to the outgoing
+ e-mail when the patch text already had one.
+
+ * a read-beyond-end-of-buffer bug in configuration file updater was fixed.
+
+ * git-grep used to show the same hit repeatedly for unmerged paths.
+
+ * After amending the patch title in "git-am -i", the command did not
+ report the patch it applied with the updated title.

--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.3 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.5.2
+--------------------
+
+* The commit walkers other than http are officially deprecated,
+ but still supported for now.
+
+* The submodule support has Porcelain layer.
+
+ Note that the current submodule support is minimal and this is
+ deliberately so. A design decision we made is that operations
+ at the supermodule level do not recurse into submodules by
+ default. The expectation is that later we would add a
+ mechanism to tell git which submodules the user is interested
+ in, and this information might be used to determine the
+ recursive behaviour of certain commands (e.g. "git checkout"
+ and "git diff"), but currently we haven't agreed on what that
+ mechanism should look like. Therefore, if you use submodules,
+ you would probably need "git submodule update" on the
+ submodules you care about after running a "git checkout" at
+ the supermodule level.
+
+* There are a handful pack-objects changes to help you cope better
+ with repositories with pathologically large blobs in them.
+
+* For people who need to import from Perforce, a front-end for
+ fast-import is in contrib/fast-import/.
+
+* Comes with git-gui 0.8.2.
+
+* Comes with updated gitk.
+
+* New commands and options.
+
+ - "git log --date=<format>" can use more formats: iso8601, rfc2822.
+
+ - The hunk header output from "git diff" family can be customized
+ with the attributes mechanism. See gitattributes(5) for details.
+
+ - "git stash" allows you to quickly save away your work in
+ progress and replay it later on an updated state.
+
+ - "git rebase" learned an "interactive" mode that let you
+ pick and reorder which commits to rebuild.
+
+ - "git fsck" can save its findings in $GIT_DIR/lost-found, without a
+ separate invocation of "git lost-found" command. The blobs stored by
+ lost-found are stored in plain format to allow you to grep in them.
+
+ - $GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable can be used together with
+ $GIT_DIR to work in a subdirectory of a working tree that is
+ not located at "$GIT_DIR/..".
+
+ - Giving "--file=<file>" option to "git config" is the same as
+ running the command with GIT_CONFIG=<file> environment.
+
+ - "git log" learned a new option "--follow", to follow
+ renaming history of a single file.
+
+ - "git filter-branch" lets you rewrite the revision history of
+ specified branches. You can specify a number of filters to
+ modify the commits, files and trees.
+
+ - "git cvsserver" learned new options (--base-path, --export-all,
+ --strict-paths) inspired by "git daemon".
+
+ - "git daemon --base-path-relaxed" can help migrating a repository URL
+ that did not use to use --base-path to use --base-path.
+
+ - "git commit" can use "-t templatefile" option and commit.template
+ configuration variable to prime the commit message given to you in the
+ editor.
+
+ - "git submodule" command helps you manage the projects from
+ the superproject that contain them.
+
+ - In addition to core.compression configuration option,
+ core.loosecompression and pack.compression options can
+ independently tweak zlib compression levels used for loose
+ and packed objects.
+
+ - "git ls-tree -l" shows size of blobs pointed at by the
+ tree entries, similar to "/bin/ls -l".
+
+ - "git rev-list" learned --regexp-ignore-case and
+ --extended-regexp options to tweak its matching logic used
+ for --grep filtering.
+
+ - "git describe --contains" is a handier way to call more
+ obscure command "git name-rev --tags".
+
+ - "git gc --aggressive" tells the command to spend more cycles
+ to optimize the repository harder.
+
+ - "git repack" learned a "window-memory" limit which
+ dynamically reduces the window size to stay within the
+ specified memory usage.
+
+ - "git repack" can be told to split resulting packs to avoid
+ exceeding limit specified with "--max-pack-size".
+
+ - "git fsck" gained --verbose option. This is really really
+ verbose but it might help you identify exact commit that is
+ corrupt in your repository.
+
+ - "git format-patch" learned --numbered-files option. This
+ may be useful for MH users.
+
+ - "git format-patch" learned format.subjectprefix configuration
+ variable, which serves the same purpose as "--subject-prefix"
+ option.
+
+ - "git tag -n -l" shows tag annotations while listing tags.
+
+ - "git cvsimport" can optionally use the separate-remote layout.
+
+ - "git blame" can be told to see through commits that change
+ whitespaces and indentation levels with "-w" option.
+
+ - "git send-email" can be told not to thread the messages when
+ sending out more than one patches.
+
+ - "git send-email" can also be told how to find whom to cc the
+ message to for each message via --cc-cmd.
+
+ - "git config" learned NUL terminated output format via -z to
+ help scripts.
+
+ - "git add" learned "--refresh <paths>..." option to selectively refresh
+ the cached stat information.
+
+ - "git init -q" makes the command quieter.
+
+ - "git -p command" now has a cousin of opposite sex, "git --no-pager
+ command".
+
+* Updated behavior of existing commands.
+
+ - "gitweb" can offer multiple snapshot formats.
+
+ ***NOTE*** Unfortunately, this changes the format of the
+ $feature{snapshot}{default} entry in the per-site
+ configuration file 'gitweb_config.perl'. It used to be a
+ three-element tuple that describe a single format; with the
+ new configuration item format, you only have to say the name
+ of the format ('tgz', 'tbz2' or 'zip'). Please update the
+ your configuration file accordingly.
+
+ - "git clone" uses -l (hardlink files under .git) by default when
+ cloning locally.
+
+ - URL used for "git clone" and friends can specify nonstandard SSH port
+ by using ssh://host:port/path/to/repo syntax.
+
+ - "git bundle create" can now create a bundle without negative refs,
+ i.e. "everything since the beginning up to certain points".
+
+ - "git diff" (but not the plumbing level "git diff-tree") now
+ recursively descends into trees by default.
+
+ - "git diff" does not show differences that come only from
+ stat-dirtiness in the form of "diff --git" header anymore.
+ It runs "update-index --refresh" silently as needed.
+
+ - "git tag -l" used to match tags by globbing its parameter as if it
+ has wildcard '*' on both ends, which made "git tag -l gui" to match
+ tag 'gitgui-0.7.0'; this was very annoying. You now have to add
+ asterisk on the sides you want to wildcard yourself.
+
+ - The editor to use with many interactive commands can be
+ overridden with GIT_EDITOR environment variable, or if it
+ does not exist, with core.editor configuration variable. As
+ before, if you have neither, environment variables VISUAL
+ and EDITOR are consulted in this order, and then finally we
+ fall back on "vi".
+
+ - "git rm --cached" does not complain when removing a newly
+ added file from the index anymore.
+
+ - Options to "git log" to affect how --grep/--author options look for
+ given strings now have shorter abbreviations. -i is for ignore case,
+ and -E is for extended regexp.
+
+ - "git log" learned --log-size to show the number of bytes in
+ the log message part of the output to help qgit.
+
+ - "git log --name-status" does not require you to give "-r" anymore.
+ As a general rule, Porcelain commands should recurse when showing
+ diff.
+
+ - "git format-patch --root A" can be used to format everything
+ since the beginning up to A. This was supported with
+ "git format-patch --root A A" for a long time, but was not
+ properly documented.
+
+ - "git svn dcommit" retains local merge information.
+
+ - "git svnimport" allows an empty string to be specified as the
+ trunk/ directory. This is necessary to suck data from a SVN
+ repository that doe not have trunk/ branches/ and tags/ organization
+ at all.
+
+ - "git config" to set values also honors type flags like --bool
+ and --int.
+
+ - core.quotepath configuration can be used to make textual git
+ output to emit most of the characters in the path literally.
+
+ - "git mergetool" chooses its backend more wisely, taking
+ notice of its environment such as use of X, Gnome/KDE, etc.
+
+ - "gitweb" shows merge commits a lot nicer than before. The
+ default view uses more compact --cc format, while the UI
+ allows to choose normal diff with any parent.
+
+ - snapshot files "gitweb" creates from a repository at
+ $path/$project/.git are more useful. We use $project part
+ in the filename, which we used to discard.
+
+ - "git cvsimport" creates lightweight tags; there is no
+ interesting information we can record in an annotated tag,
+ and the handcrafted ones the old code created was not
+ properly formed anyway.
+
+ - "git push" pretends that you immediately fetched back from
+ the remote by updating corresponding remote tracking
+ branches if you have any.
+
+ - The diffstat given after a merge (or a pull) honors the
+ color.diff configuration.
+
+ - "git commit --amend" is now compatible with various message source
+ options such as -m/-C/-c/-F.
+
+ - "git apply --whitespace=strip" removes blank lines added at
+ the end of the file.
+
+ - "git fetch" over git native protocols with "-v" option shows
+ connection status, and the IP address of the other end, to
+ help diagnosing problems.
+
+ - We used to have core.legacyheaders configuration, when
+ set to false, allowed git to write loose objects in a format
+ that mimics the format used by objects stored in packs. It
+ turns out that this was not so useful. Although we will
+ continue to read objects written in that format, we do not
+ honor that configuration anymore and create loose objects in
+ the legacy/traditional format.
+
+ - "--find-copies-harder" option to diff family can now be
+ spelled as "-C -C" for brevity.
+
+ - "git mailsplit" (hence "git am") can read from Maildir
+ formatted mailboxes.
+
+ - "git cvsserver" does not barf upon seeing "cvs login"
+ request.
+
+ - "pack-objects" honors "delta" attribute set in
+ .gitattributes. It does not attempt to deltify blobs that
+ come from paths with delta attribute set to false.
+
+ - "new-workdir" script (in contrib) can now be used with a
+ bare repository.
+
+ - "git mergetool" learned to use gvimdiff.
+
+ - "gitview" (in contrib) has a better blame interface.
+
+ - "git log" and friends did not handle a commit log message
+ that is larger than 16kB; they do now.
+
+ - "--pretty=oneline" output format for "git log" and friends
+ deals with "malformed" commit log messages that have more
+ than one lines in the first paragraph better. We used to
+ show the first line, cutting the title at mid-sentence; we
+ concatenate them into a single line and treat the result as
+ "oneline".
+
+ - "git p4import" has been demoted to contrib status. For
+ a superior option, checkout the "git p4" front end to
+ "git fast-import" (also in contrib). The man page and p4
+ rpm have been removed as well.
+
+ - "git mailinfo" (hence "am") now tries to see if the message
+ is in utf-8 first, instead of assuming iso-8859-1, if
+ incoming e-mail does not say what encoding it is in.
+
+* Builds
+
+ - old-style function definitions (most notably, a function
+ without parameter defined with "func()", not "func(void)")
+ have been eradicated.
+
+ - "git tag" and "git verify-tag" have been rewritten in C.
+
+* Performance Tweaks
+
+ - "git pack-objects" avoids re-deltification cost by caching
+ small enough delta results it creates while looking for the
+ best delta candidates.
+
+ - "git pack-objects" learned a new heuristic to prefer delta
+ that is shallower in depth over the smallest delta
+ possible. This improves both overall packfile access
+ performance and packfile density.
+
+ - diff-delta code that is used for packing has been improved
+ to work better on big files.
+
+ - when there are more than one pack files in the repository,
+ the runtime used to try finding an object always from the
+ newest packfile; it now tries the same packfile as we found
+ the object requested the last time, which exploits the
+ locality of references.
+
+ - verifying pack contents done by "git fsck --full" got boost
+ by carefully choosing the order to verify objects in them.
+
+ - "git read-tree -m" to read into an already populated index
+ has been optimized vastly. The effect of this can be seen
+ when switching branches that have differences in only a
+ handful paths.
+
+ - "git add paths..." and "git commit paths..." has also been
+ heavily optimized.
+
+Fixes since v1.5.2
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.2 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+* Bugfixes
+
+ - "gitweb" had trouble handling non UTF-8 text with older
+ Encode.pm Perl module.
+
+ - "git svn" misparsed the data from the commits in the repository when
+ the user had "color.diff = true" in the configuration. This has been
+ fixed.
+
+ - There was a case where "git svn dcommit" clobbered changes made on the
+ SVN side while committing multiple changes.
+
+ - "git-write-tree" had a bad interaction with racy-git avoidance and
+ gitattributes mechanisms.
+
+ - "git --bare command" overrode existing GIT_DIR setting and always
+ made it treat the current working directory as GIT_DIR.
+
+ - "git ls-files --error-unmatch" does not complain if you give the
+ same path pattern twice by mistake.
+
+ - "git init" autodetected core.filemode but not core.symlinks, which
+ made a new directory created automatically by "git clone" cumbersome
+ to use on filesystems that require these configurations to be set.
+
+ - "git log" family of commands behaved differently when run as "git
+ log" (no pathspec) and as "git log --" (again, no pathspec). This
+ inconsistency was introduced somewhere in v1.3.0 series but now has
+ been corrected.
+
+ - "git rebase -m" incorrectly displayed commits that were skipped.

+GIT v1.5.4.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4
+------------------
+
+ * "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in
+ 1.5.4 broke it.
+
+ * An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a
+ subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match
+ correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should
+ match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't).
+
+ * Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when
+ numeric color values are used. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4
+------------------
+
+ * The configuration parser was not prepared to see string
+ valued variables misspelled as boolean and segfaulted.
+
+ * Temporary files left behind due to interrupted object
+ transfers were not cleaned up with "git prune".
+
+ * "git config --unset" was confused when the unset variables
+ were spelled with continuation lines in the config file.
+
+ * The merge message detection in "git cvsimport" did not catch
+ a message that began with "Merge...".
+
+ * "git status" suggests "git rm --cached" for unstaging the
+ earlier "git add" before the initial commit.
+
+ * "git status" output was incorrect during a partial commit.
+
+ * "git bisect" refused to start when the HEAD was detached.
+
+ * "git bisect" allowed a wildcard character in the commit
+ message expanded while writing its log file.
+
+ * Manual pages were not formatted correctly with docbook xsl
+ 1.72; added a workaround.
+
+ * "git-commit -C $tag" used to work but rewrite in C done in
+ 1.5.4 broke it. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
+ * An entry in the .gitattributes file that names a pattern in a
+ subdirectory of the directory it is in did not match
+ correctly (e.g. pattern "b/*.c" in "a/.gitattributes" should
+ match "a/b/foo.c" but it didn't). This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
+ * Customized color specification was parsed incorrectly when
+ numeric color values are used. This was fixed in 1.5.4.1.
+
+ * http transport misbehaved when linked with curl-gnutls.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4.2
+--------------------
+
+ * RPM spec used to pull in everything with 'git'. This has been
+ changed so that 'git' package contains just the core parts,
+ and we now supply 'git-all' metapackage to slurp in everything.
+ This should match end user's expectation better.
+
+ * When some refs failed to update, git-push reported "failure"
+ which was unclear if some other refs were updated or all of
+ them failed atomically (the answer is the former). Reworded
+ the message to clarify this.
+
+ * "git clone" from a repository whose HEAD was misconfigured
+ did not set up the remote properly. Now it tries to do
+ better.
+
+ * Updated git-push documentation to clarify what "matching"
+ means, in order to reduce user confusion.
+
+ * Updated git-add documentation to clarify "add -u" operates in
+ the current subdirectory you are in, just like other commands.
+
+ * git-gui updates to work on OSX and Windows better.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4.3
+--------------------
+
+ * Building and installing with an overtight umask such as 077 made
+ installed templates unreadable by others, while the rest of the install
+ are done in a way that is friendly to umask 022.
+
+ * "git cvsexportcommit -w $cvsdir" misbehaved when GIT_DIR is set to a
+ relative directory.
+
+ * "git http-push" had an invalid memory access that could lead it to
+ segfault.
+
+ * When "git rebase -i" gave control back to the user for a commit that is
+ marked to be edited, it just said "modify it with commit --amend",
+ without saying what to do to continue after modifying it. Give an
+ explicit instruction to run "rebase --continue" to be more helpful.
+
+ * "git send-email" in 1.5.4.3 issued a bogus empty In-Reply-To: header.
+
+ * "git bisect" showed mysterious "won't bisect on seeked tree" error message.
+ This was leftover from Cogito days to prevent "bisect" starting from a
+ cg-seeked state. We still keep the Cogito safety, but running "git bisect
+ start" when another bisect was in effect will clean up and start over.
+
+ * "git push" with an explicit PATH to receive-pack did not quite work if
+ receive-pack was not on usual PATH. We earlier fixed the same issue
+ with "git fetch" and upload-pack, but somehow forgot to do so in the
+ other direction.
+
+ * git-gui's info dialog was not displayed correctly when the user tries
+ to commit nothing (i.e. without staging anything).
+
+ * "git revert" did not properly fail when attempting to run with a
+ dirty index.
+
+ * "git merge --no-commit --no-ff <other>" incorrectly made commits.
+
+ * "git merge --squash --no-ff <other>", which is a nonsense combination
+ of options, was not rejected.
+
+ * "git ls-remote" and "git remote show" against an empty repository
+ failed, instead of just giving an empty result (regression).
+
+ * "git fast-import" did not handle a renamed path whose name needs to be
+ quoted, due to a bug in unquote_c_style() function.
+
+ * "git cvsexportcommit" was confused when multiple files with the same
+ basename needed to be pushed out in the same commit.
+
+ * "git daemon" did not send early errors to syslog.
+
+ * "git log --merge" did not work well with --left-right option.
+
+ * "git svn" prompted for client cert password every time it accessed the
+ server.
+
+ * The reset command in "git fast-import" data stream was documented to
+ end with an optional LF, but it actually required one.
+
+ * "git svn dcommit/rebase" did not honor --rewrite-root option.
+
+Also included are a handful documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4.4
+--------------------
+
+ * "git fetch there" when the URL information came from the Cogito style
+ branches/there file did not update refs/heads/there (regression in
+ 1.5.4).
+
+ * Bogus refspec configuration such as "remote.there.fetch = =" were not
+ detected as errors (regression in 1.5.4).
+
+ * You couldn't specify a custom editor whose path contains a whitespace
+ via GIT_EDITOR (and core.editor).
+
+ * The subdirectory filter to "git filter-branch" mishandled a history
+ where the subdirectory becomes empty and then later becomes non-empty.
+
+ * "git shortlog" gave an empty line if the original commit message was
+ malformed (e.g. a botched import from foreign SCM). Now it finds the
+ first non-empty line and uses it for better information.
+
+ * When the user fails to give a revision parameter to "git svn", an error
+ from the Perl interpreter was issued because the script lacked proper
+ error checking.
+
+ * After "git rebase" stopped due to conflicts, if the user played with
+ "git reset" and friends, "git rebase --abort" failed to go back to the
+ correct commit.
+
+ * Additional work trees prepared with git-new-workdir (in contrib/) did
+ not share git-svn metadata directory .git/svn with the original.
+
+ * "git-merge-recursive" did not mark addition of the same path with
+ different filemodes correctly as a conflict.
+
+ * "gitweb" gave malformed URL when pathinfo stype paths are in use.
+
+ * "-n" stands for "--no-tags" again for "git fetch".
+
+ * "git format-patch" did not detect the need to add 8-bit MIME header
+ when the user used format.header configuration.
+
+ * "rev~" revision specifier used to mean "rev", which was inconsistent
+ with how "rev^" worked. Now "rev~" is the same as "rev~1" (hence it
+ also is the same as "rev^1"), and "rev~0" is the same as "rev^0"
+ (i.e. it has to be a commit).
+
+ * "git quiltimport" did not grok empty lines, lines in "file -pNNN"
+ format to specify the prefix levels and lines with trailing comments.
+
+ * "git rebase -m" triggered pre-commit verification, which made
+ "rebase --continue" impossible.
+
+As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+I personally do not think there is any reason anybody should want to
+run v1.5.4.X series these days, because 'master' version is always
+more stable than any tagged released version of git.
+
+This is primarily to futureproof "git-shell" to accept requests
+without a dash between "git" and subcommand name (e.g. "git
+upload-pack") which the newer client will start to make sometime in
+the future.
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4.5
+--------------------
+
+ * Command line option "-n" to "git-repack" was not correctly parsed.
+
+ * Error messages from "git-apply" when the patchfile cannot be opened
+ have been improved.
+
+ * Error messages from "git-bisect" when given nonsense revisions have
+ been improved.
+
+ * reflog syntax that uses time e.g. "HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path" did not
+ stop parsing at the closing "}".
+
+ * "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name ^master^2" printed solitary "^",
+ but it should print nothing.
+
+ * "git apply" did not enforce "match at the beginning" correctly.
+
+ * a path specification "a/b" in .gitattributes file should not match
+ "sub/a/b", but it did.
+
+ * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier
+ date-order with topo-order as expected.
+
+ * "git fast-export" did not export octopus merges correctly.
+
+ * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes.
+
+As usual, it also comes with many documentation fixes and clarifications.
+
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4.7 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since 1.5.4.7
+-------------------
+
+ * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose
+ implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing,
+ which would have run an external diff command specified in the
+ repository configuration as the gitweb user.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.4 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Removal
+-------
+
+ * "git svnimport" was removed in favor of "git svn". It is still there
+ in the source tree (contrib/examples) but unsupported.
+
+ * As git-commit and git-status have been rewritten, "git runstatus"
+ helper script lost all its users and has been removed.
+
+
+Temporarily disabled
+--------------------
+
+ * "git http-push" is known not to work well with cURL library older
+ than 7.16, and we had reports of repository corruption. It is
+ disabled on such platforms for now. Unfortunately, 1.5.3.8 shares
+ the same issue. In other words, this does not mean you will be
+ fine if you stick to an older git release. For now, please do not
+ use http-push from older git with cURL older than 7.16 if you
+ value your data. A proper fix will hopefully materialize in
+ later versions.
+
+
+Deprecation notices
+-------------------
+
+ * From v1.6.0, git will by default install dashed form of commands
+ (e.g. "git-commit") outside of users' normal $PATH, and will install
+ only selected commands ("git" itself, and "gitk") in $PATH. This
+ implies:
+
+ - Using dashed forms of git commands (e.g. "git-commit") from the
+ command line has been informally deprecated since early 2006, but
+ now it officially is, and will be removed in the future. Use
+ dash-less forms (e.g. "git commit") instead.
+
+ - Using dashed forms from your scripts, without first prepending the
+ return value from "git --exec-path" to the scripts' PATH, has been
+ informally deprecated since early 2006, but now it officially is.
+
+ - Use of dashed forms with "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH; export
+ PATH" early in your script is not deprecated with this change.
+
+ Users are strongly encouraged to adjust their habits and scripts now
+ to prepare for this change.
+
+ * The post-receive hook was introduced in March 2007 to supersede
+ the post-update hook, primarily to overcome the command line length
+ limitation of the latter. Use of post-update hook will be deprecated
+ in future versions of git, starting from v1.6.0.
+
+ * "git lost-found" was deprecated in favor of "git fsck"'s --lost-found
+ option, and will be removed in the future.
+
+ * "git peek-remote" is deprecated, as "git ls-remote" was written in C
+ and works for all transports; "git peek-remote" will be removed in
+ the future.
+
+ * "git repo-config" which was an old name for "git config" command
+ has been supported without being advertised for a long time. The
+ next feature release will remove it.
+
+ * From v1.6.0, the repack.usedeltabaseoffset config option will default
+ to true, which will give denser packfiles (i.e. more efficient storage).
+ The downside is that git older than version 1.4.4 will not be able
+ to directly use a repository packed using this setting.
+
+ * From v1.6.0, the pack.indexversion config option will default to 2,
+ which is slightly more efficient, and makes repacking more immune to
+ data corruptions. Git older than version 1.5.2 may revert to version 1
+ of the pack index with a manual "git index-pack" to be able to directly
+ access corresponding pack files.
+
+
+Updates since v1.5.3
+--------------------
+
+ * Comes with much improved gitk, with i18n.
+
+ * Comes with git-gui 0.9.2 with i18n.
+
+ * gitk is now merged as a subdirectory of git.git project, in
+ preparation for its i18n.
+
+ * progress displays from many commands are a lot nicer to the eye.
+ Transfer commands show throughput data.
+
+ * many commands that pay attention to per-directory .gitignore now do
+ so lazily, which makes the usual case go much faster.
+
+ * Output processing for '--pretty=format:<user format>' has been
+ optimized.
+
+ * Rename detection of diff family while detecting exact matches has
+ been greatly optimized.
+
+ * Rename detection of diff family tries to make more natural looking
+ pairing. Earlier, if multiple identical rename sources were
+ found in the preimage, the source used was picked pretty much at random.
+
+ * Value "true" for color.diff and color.status configuration used to
+ mean "always" (even when the output is not going to a terminal).
+ This has been corrected to mean the same thing as "auto".
+
+ * "git diff" Porcelain now respects diff.external configuration, which
+ is another way to specify GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF.
+
+ * "git diff" can be told to use different prefixes other than
+ "a/" and "b/" e.g. "git diff --src-prefix=l/ --dst-prefix=k/".
+
+ * "git diff" sometimes did not quote paths with funny
+ characters properly.
+
+ * "git log" (and any revision traversal commands) misbehaved
+ when --diff-filter is given but was not asked to actually
+ produce diff.
+
+ * HTTP proxy can be specified per remote repository using
+ remote.*.httpproxy configuration, or global http.proxy configuration
+ variable.
+
+ * Various Perforce importer updates.
+
+ * Example update and post-receive hooks have been improved.
+
+ * Any command that wants to take a commit object name can now use
+ ":/string" syntax to name a commit.
+
+ * "git reset" is now built-in and its output can be squelched with -q.
+
+ * "git reset --hard" does not make any sense in a bare
+ repository, but did not error out; fixed.
+
+ * "git send-email" can optionally talk over ssmtp and use SMTP-AUTH.
+
+ * "git rebase" learned --whitespace option.
+
+ * In "git rebase", when you decide not to replay a particular change
+ after the command stopped with a conflict, you can say "git rebase
+ --skip" without first running "git reset --hard", as the command now
+ runs it for you.
+
+ * "git rebase --interactive" mode can now work on detached HEAD.
+
+ * Other minor to serious bugs in "git rebase -i" have been fixed.
+
+ * "git rebase" now detaches head during its operation, so after a
+ successful "git rebase" operation, the reflog entry branch@{1} for
+ the current branch points at the commit before the rebase was
+ started.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" also triggers rerere to help your repeated merges.
+
+ * "git merge" can call the "post-merge" hook.
+
+ * "git pack-objects" can optionally run deltification with multiple
+ threads.
+
+ * "git archive" can optionally substitute keywords in files marked with
+ export-subst attribute.
+
+ * "git cherry-pick" made a misguided attempt to repeat the original
+ command line in the generated log message, when told to cherry-pick a
+ commit by naming a tag that points at it. It does not anymore.
+
+ * "git for-each-ref" learned %(xxxdate:<date-format>) syntax to show the
+ various date fields in different formats.
+
+ * "git gc --auto" is a low-impact way to automatically run a variant of
+ "git repack" that does not lose unreferenced objects (read: safer
+ than the usual one) after the user accumulates too many loose
+ objects.
+
+ * "git clean" has been rewritten in C.
+
+ * You need to explicitly set clean.requireForce to "false" to allow
+ "git clean" without -f to do any damage (lack of the configuration
+ variable used to mean "do not require -f option to lose untracked
+ files", but we now use the safer default).
+
+ * The kinds of whitespace errors "git diff" and "git apply" notice (and
+ fix) can be controlled via 'core.whitespace' configuration variable
+ and 'whitespace' attribute in .gitattributes file.
+
+ * "git push" learned --dry-run option to show what would happen if a
+ push is run.
+
+ * "git push" does not update a tracking ref on the local side when the
+ remote refused to update the corresponding ref.
+
+ * "git push" learned --mirror option. This is to push the local refs
+ one-to-one to the remote, and deletes refs from the remote that do
+ not exist anymore in the repository on the pushing side.
+
+ * "git push" can remove a corrupt ref at the remote site with the usual
+ ":ref" refspec.
+
+ * "git remote" knows --mirror mode. This is to set up configuration to
+ push into a remote repository to store local branch heads to the same
+ branch on the remote side, and remove branch heads locally removed
+ from local repository at the same time. Suitable for pushing into a
+ back-up repository.
+
+ * "git remote" learned "rm" subcommand.
+
+ * "git cvsserver" can be run via "git shell". Also, "cvs" is
+ recognized as a synonym for "git cvsserver", so that CVS users
+ can be switched to git just by changing their login shell.
+
+ * "git cvsserver" acts more like receive-pack by running post-receive
+ and post-update hooks.
+
+ * "git am" and "git rebase" are far less verbose.
+
+ * "git pull" learned to pass --[no-]ff option to underlying "git
+ merge".
+
+ * "git pull --rebase" is a different way to integrate what you fetched
+ into your current branch.
+
+ * "git fast-export" produces data-stream that can be fed to fast-import
+ to reproduce the history recorded in a git repository.
+
+ * "git add -i" takes pathspecs to limit the set of files to work on.
+
+ * "git add -p" is a short-hand to go directly to the selective patch
+ subcommand in the interactive command loop and to exit when done.
+
+ * "git add -i" UI has been colorized. The interactive prompt
+ and menu can be colored by setting color.interactive
+ configuration. The diff output (including the hunk picker)
+ are colored with color.diff configuration.
+
+ * "git commit --allow-empty" allows you to create a single-parent
+ commit that records the same tree as its parent, overriding the usual
+ safety valve.
+
+ * "git commit --amend" can amend a merge that does not change the tree
+ from its first parent.
+
+ * "git commit" used to unconditionally strip comment lines that
+ began with '#' and removed excess blank lines. This behavior has
+ been made configurable.
+
+ * "git commit" has been rewritten in C.
+
+ * "git stash random-text" does not create a new stash anymore. It was
+ a UI mistake. Use "git stash save random-text", or "git stash"
+ (without extra args) for that.
+
+ * "git stash clear extra-text" does not clear the whole stash
+ anymore. It is tempting to expect "git stash clear stash@{2}"
+ to drop only a single named stash entry, and it is rude to
+ discard everything when that is asked (but not provided).
+
+ * "git prune --expire <time>" can exempt young loose objects from
+ getting pruned.
+
+ * "git branch --contains <commit>" can list branches that are
+ descendants of a given commit.
+
+ * "git log" learned --early-output option to help interactive GUI
+ implementations.
+
+ * "git bisect" learned "skip" action to mark untestable commits.
+
+ * "git bisect visualize" learned a shorter synonym "git bisect view".
+
+ * "git bisect visualize" runs "git log" in a non-windowed
+ environments. It also can be told what command to run (e.g. "git
+ bisect visualize tig").
+
+ * "git format-patch" learned "format.numbered" configuration variable
+ to automatically turn --numbered option on when more than one commits
+ are formatted.
+
+ * "git ls-files" learned "--exclude-standard" to use the canned set of
+ exclude files.
+
+ * "git tag -a -f existing" begins the editor session using the existing
+ annotation message.
+
+ * "git tag -m one -m bar" (multiple -m options) behaves similarly to
+ "git commit"; the parameters to -m options are formatted as separate
+ paragraphs.
+
+ * The format "git show" outputs an annotated tag has been updated to
+ include "Tagger: " and "Date: " lines from the tag itself. Strictly
+ speaking this is a backward incompatible change, but this is a
+ reasonable usability fix and people's scripts shouldn't have been
+ relying on the exact output from "git show" Porcelain anyway.
+
+ * "git cvsimport" did not notice errors from underlying "cvsps"
+ and produced a corrupt import silently.
+
+ * "git cvsexportcommit" learned -w option to specify and switch to the
+ CVS working directory.
+
+ * "git checkout" from a subdirectory learned to use "../path" to allow
+ checking out a path outside the current directory without cd'ing up.
+
+ * "git checkout" from and to detached HEAD leaves a bit more
+ information in the reflog.
+
+ * "git send-email --dry-run" shows full headers for easier diagnosis.
+
+ * "git merge-ours" is now built-in.
+
+ * "git svn" learned "info" and "show-externals" subcommands.
+
+ * "git svn" run from a subdirectory failed to read settings from the
+ .git/config.
+
+ * "git svn" learned --use-log-author option, which picks up more
+ descriptive name from From: and Signed-off-by: lines in the commit
+ message.
+
+ * "git svn" wasted way too much disk to record revision mappings
+ between svn and git; a new representation that is much more compact
+ for this information has been introduced to correct this.
+
+ * "git svn" left temporary index files it used without cleaning them
+ up; this was corrected.
+
+ * "git status" from a subdirectory now shows relative paths, which
+ makes copy-and-pasting for git-checkout/git-add/git-rm easier. The
+ traditional behavior to show the full path relative to the top of
+ the work tree can be had by setting status.relativepaths
+ configuration variable to false.
+
+ * "git blame" kept text for each annotated revision in core needlessly;
+ this has been corrected.
+
+ * "git shortlog" learned to default to HEAD when the standard input is
+ a terminal and the user did not give any revision parameter.
+
+ * "git shortlog" learned "-e" option to show e-mail addresses as well as
+ authors' names.
+
+ * "git help" learned "-w" option to show documentation in browsers.
+
+ * In addition there are quite a few internal clean-ups. Notably:
+
+ - many fork/exec have been replaced with run-command API,
+ brought from the msysgit effort.
+
+ - introduction and more use of the option parser API.
+
+ - enhancement and more use of the strbuf API.
+
+ * Makefile tweaks to support HP-UX is in.
+
+Fixes since v1.5.3
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.3 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+These fixes are only in v1.5.4 and not backported to v1.5.3 maintenance
+series.
+
+ * The way "git diff --check" behaves is much more consistent with the way
+ "git apply --whitespace=warn" works.
+
+ * "git svn" talking with the SVN over HTTP will correctly quote branch
+ and project names.
+
+ * "git config" did not work correctly on platforms that define
+ REG_NOMATCH to an even number.
+
+ * Recent versions of AsciiDoc 8 has a change to break our
+ documentation; a workaround has been implemented.
+
+ * "git diff --color-words" colored context lines in a wrong color.

+GIT v1.5.5.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5
+------------------
+
+ * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes.
+
+ * "git fetch -v" that fetches into FETCH_HEAD did not report the summary
+ the same way as done for updating the tracking refs.
+
+ * "git svn" misbehaved when the configuration file customized the "git
+ log" output format using format.pretty.
+
+ * "git submodule status" leaked an unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier
+ date-order with topo-order as expected.
+
+ * "git bisect good $this" did not check the validity of the revision
+ given properly.
+
+ * "url.<there>.insteadOf" did not work correctly.
+
+ * "git clean" ran inside subdirectory behaved as if the directory was
+ explicitly specified for removal by the end user from the top level.
+
+ * "git bisect" from a detached head leaked an unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git bisect good $a $b" when $a is Ok but $b is bogus should have
+ atomically failed before marking $a as good.
+
+ * "git fmt-merge-msg" did not clean up leading empty lines from commit
+ log messages like "git log" family does.
+
+ * "git am" recorded a commit with empty Subject: line without
+ complaining.
+
+ * when given a commit log message whose first paragraph consists of
+ multiple lines, "git rebase" squashed it into a single line.
+
+ * "git remote add $bogus_name $url" did not complain properly.
+
+Also comes with various documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.5.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5.1
+--------------------
+
+ * "git repack -n" was mistakenly made no-op earlier.
+
+ * "git imap-send" wanted to always have imap.host even when use of
+ imap.tunnel made it unnecessary.
+
+ * reflog syntax that uses time e.g. "HEAD@{10 seconds ago}:path" did not
+ stop parsing at the closing "}".
+
+ * "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name ^master^2" printed solitary "^",
+ but it should print nothing.
+
+ * "git commit" did not detect when it failed to write tree objects.
+
+ * "git fetch" sometimes transferred too many objects unnecessarily.
+
+ * a path specification "a/b" in .gitattributes file should not match
+ "sub/a/b".
+
+ * various gitweb fixes.
+
+Also comes with various documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.5.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5.2
+--------------------
+
+ * "git send-email --compose" did not notice that non-ascii contents
+ needed some MIME magic.
+
+ * "git fast-export" did not export octopus merges correctly.
+
+Also comes with various documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.5.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5.4
+--------------------
+
+ * "git name-rev --all" used to segfault.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.5.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+I personally do not think there is any reason anybody should want to
+run v1.5.5.X series these days, because 'master' version is always
+more stable than any tagged released version of git.
+
+This is primarily to futureproof "git-shell" to accept requests
+without a dash between "git" and subcommand name (e.g. "git
+upload-pack") which the newer client will start to make sometime in
+the future.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.5.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since 1.5.5.5
+-------------------
+
+ * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose
+ implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing,
+ which would have run an external diff command specified in the
+ repository configuration as the gitweb user.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.5 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.5.4
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+ * Comes with git-gui 0.10.1
+
+(portability)
+
+ * We shouldn't ask for BSD group ownership semantics by setting g+s bit
+ on directories on older BSD systems that refuses chmod() by non root
+ users. BSD semantics is the default there anyway.
+
+ * Bunch of portability improvement patches coming from an effort to port
+ to Solaris has been applied.
+
+(performance)
+
+ * On platforms with suboptimal qsort(3) implementation, there
+ is an option to use more reasonable substitute we ship with
+ our software.
+
+ * New configuration variable "pack.packsizelimit" can be used
+ in place of command line option --max-pack-size.
+
+ * "git fetch" over the native git protocol used to make a
+ connection to find out the set of current remote refs and
+ another to actually download the pack data. We now use only
+ one connection for these tasks.
+
+ * "git commit" does not run lstat(2) more than necessary
+ anymore.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+ * Bash completion script (in contrib) are aware of more commands and
+ options.
+
+ * You can be warned when core.autocrlf conversion is applied in
+ such a way that results in an irreversible conversion.
+
+ * A catch-all "color.ui" configuration variable can be used to
+ enable coloring of all color-capable commands, instead of
+ individual ones such as "color.status" and "color.branch".
+
+ * The commands refused to take absolute pathnames where they
+ require pathnames relative to the work tree or the current
+ subdirectory. They now can take absolute pathnames in such a
+ case as long as the pathnames do not refer outside of the
+ work tree. E.g. "git add $(pwd)/foo" now works.
+
+ * Error messages used to be sent to stderr, only to get hidden,
+ when $PAGER was in use. They now are sent to stdout along
+ with the command output to be shown in the $PAGER.
+
+ * A pattern "foo/" in .gitignore file now matches a directory
+ "foo". Pattern "foo" also matches as before.
+
+ * bash completion's prompt helper function can talk about
+ operation in-progress (e.g. merge, rebase, etc.).
+
+ * Configuration variables "url.<usethis>.insteadof = <otherurl>" can be
+ used to tell "git-fetch" and "git-push" to use different URL than what
+ is given from the command line.
+
+ * "git add -i" behaves better even before you make an initial commit.
+
+ * "git am" refused to run from a subdirectory without a good reason.
+
+ * After "git apply --whitespace=fix" fixes whitespace errors in a patch,
+ a line before the fix can appear as a context or preimage line in a
+ later patch, causing the patch not to apply. The command now knows to
+ see through whitespace fixes done to context lines to successfully
+ apply such a patch series.
+
+ * "git branch" (and "git checkout -b") to branch from a local branch can
+ optionally set "branch.<name>.merge" to mark the new branch to build on
+ the other local branch, when "branch.autosetupmerge" is set to
+ "always", or when passing the command line option "--track" (this option
+ was ignored when branching from local branches). By default, this does
+ not happen when branching from a local branch.
+
+ * "git checkout" to switch to a branch that has "branch.<name>.merge" set
+ (i.e. marked to build on another branch) reports how much the branch
+ and the other branch diverged.
+
+ * When "git checkout" has to update a lot of paths, it used to be silent
+ for 4 seconds before it showed any progress report. It is now a bit
+ more impatient and starts showing progress report early.
+
+ * "git commit" learned a new hook "prepare-commit-msg" that can
+ inspect what is going to be committed and prepare the commit
+ log message template to be edited.
+
+ * "git cvsimport" can now take more than one -M options.
+
+ * "git describe" learned to limit the tags to be used for
+ naming with --match option.
+
+ * "git describe --contains" now barfs when the named commit
+ cannot be described.
+
+ * "git describe --exact-match" describes only commits that are tagged.
+
+ * "git describe --long" describes a tagged commit as $tag-0-$sha1,
+ instead of just showing the exact tagname.
+
+ * "git describe" warns when using a tag whose name and path contradict
+ with each other.
+
+ * "git diff" learned "--relative" option to limit and output paths
+ relative to the current directory when working in a subdirectory.
+
+ * "git diff" learned "--dirstat" option to show birds-eye-summary of
+ changes more concisely than "--diffstat".
+
+ * "git format-patch" learned --cover-letter option to generate a cover
+ letter template.
+
+ * "git gc" learned --quiet option.
+
+ * "git gc" now automatically prunes unreachable objects that are two
+ weeks old or older.
+
+ * "git gc --auto" can be disabled more easily by just setting gc.auto
+ to zero. It also tolerates more packfiles by default.
+
+ * "git grep" now knows "--name-only" is a synonym for the "-l" option.
+
+ * "git help <alias>" now reports "'git <alias>' is alias to <what>",
+ instead of saying "No manual entry for git-<alias>".
+
+ * "git help" can use different backends to show manual pages and this can
+ be configured using "man.viewer" configuration.
+
+ * "gitk" does not restore window position from $HOME/.gitk anymore (it
+ still restores the size).
+
+ * "git log --grep=<what>" learned "--fixed-strings" option to look for
+ <what> without treating it as a regular expression.
+
+ * "git gui" learned an auto-spell checking.
+
+ * "git push <somewhere> HEAD" and "git push <somewhere> +HEAD" works as
+ expected; they push the current branch (and only the current branch).
+ In addition, HEAD can be written as the value of "remote.<there>.push"
+ configuration variable.
+
+ * When the configuration variable "pack.threads" is set to 0, "git
+ repack" auto detects the number of CPUs and uses that many threads.
+
+ * "git send-email" learned to prompt for passwords
+ interactively.
+
+ * "git send-email" learned an easier way to suppress CC
+ recipients.
+
+ * "git stash" learned "pop" command, that applies the latest stash and
+ removes it from the stash, and "drop" command to discard the named
+ stash entry.
+
+ * "git submodule" learned a new subcommand "summary" to show the
+ symmetric difference between the HEAD version and the work tree version
+ of the submodule commits.
+
+ * Various "git cvsimport", "git cvsexportcommit", "git cvsserver",
+ "git svn" and "git p4" improvements.
+
+(internal)
+
+ * Duplicated code between git-help and git-instaweb that
+ launches user's preferred browser has been refactored.
+
+ * It is now easier to write test scripts that records known
+ breakages.
+
+ * "git checkout" is rewritten in C.
+
+ * "git remote" is rewritten in C.
+
+ * Two conflict hunks that are separated by a very short span of common
+ lines are now coalesced into one larger hunk, to make the result easier
+ to read.
+
+ * Run-command API's use of file descriptors is documented clearer and
+ is more consistent now.
+
+ * diff output can be sent to FILE * that is different from stdout. This
+ will help reimplementing more things in C.
+
+Fixes since v1.5.4
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.4 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * "git-http-push" did not allow deletion of remote ref with the usual
+ "push <remote> :<branch>" syntax.
+
+ * "git-rebase --abort" did not go back to the right location if
+ "git-reset" was run during the "git-rebase" session.
+
+ * "git imap-send" without setting imap.host did not error out but
+ segfaulted.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.6.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.6
+------------------
+
+* Last minute change broke loose object creation on AIX.
+
+* (performance fix) We used to make $GIT_DIR absolute path early in the
+ programs but keeping it relative to the current directory internally
+ gives 1-3 per-cent performance boost.
+
+* bash completion knows the new --graph option to git-log family.
+
+
+* git-diff -c/--cc showed unnecessary "deletion" lines at the context
+ boundary.
+
+* git-for-each-ref ignored %(object) and %(type) requests for tag
+ objects.
+
+* git-merge usage had a typo.
+
+* Rebuilding of git-svn metainfo database did not take rewriteRoot
+ option into account.
+
+* Running "git-rebase --continue/--skip/--abort" before starting a
+ rebase gave nonsense error messages.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.6.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Futureproof
+-----------
+
+ * "git-shell" accepts requests without a dash between "git" and
+ subcommand name (e.g. "git upload-pack") which the newer client will
+ start to make sometime in the future.
+
+Fixes since v1.5.6.1
+--------------------
+
+* "git clone" from a remote that is named with url.insteadOf setting in
+ $HOME/.gitconfig did not work well.
+
+* "git describe --long --tags" segfaulted when the described revision was
+ tagged with a lightweight tag.
+
+* "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status
+ reliably.
+
+* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
+ it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
+ branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest
+ pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
+ of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.
+
+* "git reset file" should mean the same thing as "git reset HEAD file",
+ but we required disambiguating -- even when "file" is not ambiguous.
+
+* "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another
+ annotated tag was given to it.
+
+* Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a
+ serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for
+ moderately large import.
+
+* "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file
+ unnecessarily.

+GIT v1.5.6.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.6.2
+--------------------
+
+* Setting core.sharedrepository to traditional "true" value was supposed to make
+ the repository group writable but should not affect permission for others.
+ However, since 1.5.6, it was broken to drop permission for others when umask is
+ 022, making the repository unreadable by others.
+
+* Setting GIT_TRACE will report spawning of external process via run_command().
+
+* Using an object with very deep delta chain pinned memory needed for extracting
+ intermediate base objects unnecessarily long, leading to excess memory usage.
+
+* Bash completion script did not notice '--' marker on the command
+ line and tried the relatively slow "ref completion" even when
+ completing arguments after one.
+
+* Registering a non-empty blob racily and then truncating the working
+ tree file for it confused "racy-git avoidance" logic into thinking
+ that the path is now unchanged.
+
+* The section that describes attributes related to git-archive were placed
+ in a wrong place in the gitattributes(5) manual page.
+
+* "git am" was not helpful to the users when it detected that the committer
+ information is not set up properly yet.
+
+* "git clone" had a leftover debugging fprintf().
+
+* "git clone -q" was not quiet enough as it used to and gave object count
+ and progress reports.
+
+* "git clone" marked downloaded packfile with .keep; this could be a
+ good thing if the remote side is well packed but otherwise not,
+ especially for a project that is not really big.
+
+* "git daemon" used to call syslog() from a signal handler, which
+ could raise signals of its own but generally is not reentrant. This
+ was fixed by restructuring the code to report syslog() after the handler
+ returns.
+
+* When "git push" tries to remove a remote ref, and corresponding
+ tracking ref is missing, we used to report error (i.e. failure to
+ remove something that does not exist).
+
+* "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") did not handle commit log messages in a
+ MIME multipart mail correctly.
+
+Contains other various documentation fixes.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.6.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.6.3
+--------------------
+
+* Various commands could overflow its internal buffer on a platform
+ with small PATH_MAX value in a repository that has contents with
+ long pathnames.
+
+* There wasn't a way to make --pretty=format:%<> specifiers to honor
+ .mailmap name rewriting for authors and committers. Now you can with
+ %aN and %cN.
+
+* Bash completion wasted too many cycles; this has been optimized to be
+ usable again.
+
+* Bash completion lost ref part when completing something like "git show
+ pu:Makefile".
+
+* "git-cvsserver" did not clean up its temporary working area after annotate
+ request.
+
+* "git-daemon" called syslog() from its signal handler, which was a
+ no-no.
+
+* "git-fetch" into an empty repository used to remind that the fetch will
+ be huge by saying "no common commits", but this was an unnecessary
+ noise; it is already known by the user anyway.
+
+* "git-http-fetch" would have segfaulted when pack idx file retrieved
+ from the other side was corrupt.
+
+* "git-index-pack" used too much memory when dealing with a deep delta chain.
+
+* "git-mailinfo" (hence "git-am") did not correctly handle in-body [PATCH]
+ line to override the commit title taken from the mail Subject header.
+
+* "git-rebase -i -p" lost parents that are not involved in the history
+ being rewritten.
+
+* "git-rm" lost track of where the index file was when GIT_DIR was
+ specified as a relative path.
+
+* "git-rev-list --quiet" was not quiet as advertised.
+
+Contains other various documentation fixes.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.6.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.5.6.4
+--------------------
+
+* "git cvsimport" used to spit out "UNKNOWN LINE..." diagnostics to stdout.
+
+* "git commit -F filename" and "git tag -F filename" run from subdirectories
+ did not read the right file.
+
+* "git init --template=" with blank "template" parameter linked files
+ under root directories to .git, which was a total nonsense. Instead, it
+ means "I do not want to use anything from the template directory".
+
+* "git diff-tree" and other diff plumbing ignored diff.renamelimit configuration
+ variable when the user explicitly asked for rename detection.
+
+* "git name-rev --name-only" did not work when "--stdin" option was in effect.
+
+* "git show-branch" mishandled its 8th branch.
+
+* Addition of "git update-index --ignore-submodules" that happened during
+ 1.5.6 cycle broke "git update-index --ignore-missing".
+
+* "git send-email" did not parse charset from an existing Content-type:
+ header properly.
+
+Contains other various documentation fixes.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.6.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since 1.5.6.5
+-------------------
+
+ * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose
+ implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing,
+ which would have run an external diff command specified in the
+ repository configuration as the gitweb user.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.5.6 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.5.5
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+* Comes with updated gitk and git-gui.
+
+(portability)
+
+* git will build on AIX better than before now.
+
+* core.ignorecase configuration variable can be used to work better on
+ filesystems that are not case sensitive.
+
+* "git init" now autodetects the case sensitivity of the filesystem and
+ sets core.ignorecase accordingly.
+
+* cpio is no longer used; neither "curl" binary (libcurl is still used).
+
+(documentation)
+
+* Many freestanding documentation pages have been converted and made
+ available to "git help" (aka "man git<something>") as section 7 of
+ the manual pages. This means bookmarks to some HTML documentation
+ files may need to be updated (eg "tutorial.html" became
+ "gittutorial.html").
+
+(performance)
+
+* "git clone" was rewritten in C. This will hopefully help cloning a
+ repository with insane number of refs.
+
+* "git rebase --onto $there $from $branch" used to switch to the tip of
+ $branch only to immediately reset back to $from, smudging work tree
+ files unnecessarily. This has been optimized.
+
+* Object creation codepath in "git-svn" has been optimized by enhancing
+ plumbing commands git-cat-file and git-hash-object.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+* "git add -p" (and the "patch" subcommand of "git add -i") can choose to
+ apply (or not apply) mode changes independently from contents changes.
+
+* "git bisect help" gives longer and more helpful usage information.
+
+* "git bisect" does not use a special branch "bisect" anymore; instead, it
+ does its work on a detached HEAD.
+
+* "git branch" (and "git checkout -b") can be told to set up
+ branch.<name>.rebase automatically, so that later you can say "git pull"
+ and magically cause "git pull --rebase" to happen.
+
+* "git branch --merged" and "git branch --no-merged" can be used to list
+ branches that have already been merged (or not yet merged) to the
+ current branch.
+
+* "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" can add a sign-off.
+
+* "git commit" mentions the author identity when you are committing
+ somebody else's changes.
+
+* "git diff/log --dirstat" output is consistent between binary and textual
+ changes.
+
+* "git filter-branch" rewrites signed tags by demoting them to annotated.
+
+* "git format-patch --no-binary" can produce a patch that lack binary
+ changes (i.e. cannot be used to propagate the whole changes) meant only
+ for reviewing.
+
+* "git init --bare" is a synonym for "git --bare init" now.
+
+* "git gc --auto" honors a new pre-auto-gc hook to temporarily disable it.
+
+* "git log --pretty=tformat:<custom format>" gives a LF after each entry,
+ instead of giving a LF between each pair of entries which is how
+ "git log --pretty=format:<custom format>" works.
+
+* "git log" and friends learned the "--graph" option to show the ancestry
+ graph at the left margin of the output.
+
+* "git log" and friends can be told to use date format that is different
+ from the default via 'log.date' configuration variable.
+
+* "git send-email" now can send out messages outside a git repository.
+
+* "git send-email --compose" was made aware of rfc2047 quoting.
+
+* "git status" can optionally include output from "git submodule
+ summary".
+
+* "git svn" learned --add-author-from option to propagate the authorship
+ by munging the commit log message.
+
+* new object creation and looking up in "git svn" has been optimized.
+
+* "gitweb" can read from a system-wide configuration file.
+
+(internal)
+
+* "git unpack-objects" and "git receive-pack" is now more strict about
+ detecting breakage in the objects they receive over the wire.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.5.5
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.5 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+And there are too numerous small fixes to otherwise note here ;-)
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.0.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.0
+------------------
+
+* "git diff --cc" did not honor content mangling specified by
+ gitattributes and core.autocrlf when reading from the work tree.
+
+* "git diff --check" incorrectly detected new trailing blank lines when
+ whitespace check was in effect.
+
+* "git for-each-ref" tried to dereference NULL when asked for '%(body)" on
+ a tag with a single incomplete line as its payload.
+
+* "git format-patch" peeked before the beginning of a string when
+ "format.headers" variable is empty (a misconfiguration).
+
+* "git help help" did not work correctly.
+
+* "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") was unhappy when MIME multipart message
+ contained garbage after the finishing boundary.
+
+* "git mailinfo" also was unhappy when the "From: " line only had a bare
+ e-mail address.
+
+* "git merge" did not refresh the index correctly when a merge resulted in
+ a fast-forward.
+
+* "git merge" did not resolve a truly trivial merges that can be done
+ without content level merges.
+
+* "git svn dcommit" to a repository with URL that has embedded usernames
+ did not work correctly.
+
+Contains other various documentation fixes.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.0.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.0.1
+--------------------
+
+* Installation on platforms that needs .exe suffix to git-* programs were
+ broken in 1.6.0.1.
+
+* Installation on filesystems without symbolic links support did not
+ work well.
+
+* In-tree documentations and test scripts now use "git foo" form to set a
+ better example, instead of the "git-foo" form (which is an acceptable
+ form if you have "PATH=$(git --exec-path):$PATH" in your script)
+
+* Many commands did not use the correct working tree location when used
+ with GIT_WORK_TREE environment settings.
+
+* Some systems need to use compatibility fnmatch and regex libraries
+ independent from each other; the compat/ area has been reorganized to
+ allow this.
+
+
+* "git apply --unidiff-zero" incorrectly applied a -U0 patch that inserts
+ a new line before the second line.
+
+* "git blame -c" did not exactly work like "git annotate" when range
+ boundaries are involved.
+
+* "git checkout file" when file is still unmerged checked out contents from
+ a random high order stage, which was confusing.
+
+* "git clone $there $here/" with extra trailing slashes after explicit
+ local directory name $here did not work as expected.
+
+* "git diff" on tracked contents with CRLF line endings did not drive "less"
+ intelligently when showing added or removed lines.
+
+* "git diff --dirstat -M" did not add changes in subdirectories up
+ correctly for renamed paths.
+
+* "git diff --cumulative" did not imply "--dirstat".
+
+* "git for-each-ref refs/heads/" did not work as expected.
+
+* "git gui" allowed users to feed patch without any context to be applied.
+
+* "git gui" botched parsing "diff" output when a line that begins with two
+ dashes and a space gets removed or a line that begins with two pluses
+ and a space gets added.
+
+* "git gui" translation updates and i18n fixes.
+
+* "git index-pack" is more careful against disk corruption while completing
+ a thin pack.
+
+* "git log -i --grep=pattern" did not ignore case; neither "git log -E
+ --grep=pattern" triggered extended regexp.
+
+* "git log --pretty="%ad" --date=short" did not use short format when
+ showing the timestamp.
+
+* "git log --author=author" match incorrectly matched with the
+ timestamp part of "author " line in commit objects.
+
+* "git log -F --author=author" did not work at all.
+
+* Build procedure for "git shell" that used stub versions of some
+ functions and globals was not understood by linkers on some platforms.
+
+* "git stash" was fooled by a stat-dirty but otherwise unmodified paths
+ and refused to work until the user refreshed the index.
+
+* "git svn" was broken on Perl before 5.8 with recent fixes to reduce
+ use of temporary files.
+
+* "git verify-pack -v" did not work correctly when given more than one
+ packfile.
+
+Also contains many documentation updates.

+GIT v1.6.0.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.0.2
+--------------------
+
+* "git archive --format=zip" did not honor core.autocrlf while
+ --format=tar did.
+
+* Continuing "git rebase -i" was very confused when the user left modified
+ files in the working tree while resolving conflicts.
+
+* Continuing "git rebase -i" was also very confused when the user left
+ some staged changes in the index after "edit".
+
+* "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 stash apply" now offers a better suggestion on how to continue
+ if the working tree is currently dirty.
+
+* "git for-each-ref --format=%(subject)" fixed for commits with no
+ no newline in the message body.
+
+* "git remote" fixed to protect printf from user input.
+
+* "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
+ progress messages, actually making their output quiet.
+
+* Cross-directory renames are no longer used when creating packs. This
+ allows more graceful behavior on filesystems like sshfs.
+
+* Stale temporary files under $GIT_DIR/objects/pack are now cleaned up
+ automatically by "git prune".
+
+* "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.
+
+* "git submodule" fixed to handle checking out a different commit
+ than HEAD after initializing the submodule.
+
+* 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 8 does not define NEEDS_LIBICONV by default.
+
+* "Git.pm" tests relied on unnecessarily more recent version of Perl.
+
+* "gitweb" triggered undef warning on commits without log messages.
+
+* "gitweb" triggered undef warnings on missing trees.
+
+* "gitweb" now removes PATH_INFO from its URLs so users don't have
+ to manually set the URL in the gitweb configuration.
+
+* Bash completion removed support for legacy "git-fetch", "git-push"
+ and "git-pull" as these are no longer installed. Dashless form
+ ("git fetch") is still however supported.
+
+Many other documentation updates.

+GIT v1.6.0.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.0.3
+--------------------
+
+* 'git add -p' said "No changes" when only binary files were changed.
+
+* 'git archive' did not work correctly in bare repositories.
+
+* 'git checkout -t -b newbranch' when you are on detached HEAD was broken.
+
+* when we refuse to detect renames because there are too many new or
+ deleted files, 'git diff' did not say how many there are.
+
+* 'git push --mirror' tried and failed to push the stash; there is no
+ point in sending it to begin with.
+
+* 'git push' did not update the remote tracking reference if the corresponding
+ ref on the remote end happened to be already up to date.
+
+* 'git pull $there $branch:$current_branch' did not work when you were on
+ a branch yet to be born.
+
+* when giving up resolving a conflicted merge, 'git reset --hard' failed
+ to remove new paths from the working tree.
+
+* 'git send-email' had a small fd leak while scanning directory.
+
+* 'git status' incorrectly reported a submodule directory as an untracked
+ directory.
+
+* 'git svn' used deprecated 'git-foo' form of subcommand invocation.
+
+* 'git update-ref -d' to remove a reference did not honor --no-deref option.
+
+* Plugged small memleaks here and there.
+
+* Also contains many documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.0.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.0.4
+--------------------
+
+* "git checkout" used to crash when your HEAD was pointing at a deleted
+ branch.
+
+* "git checkout" from an un-checked-out state did not allow switching out
+ of the current branch.
+
+* "git diff" always allowed GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF and --no-ext-diff was no-op for
+ the command.
+
+* Giving 3 or more tree-ish to "git diff" is supposed to show the combined
+ diff from second and subsequent trees to the first one, but the order was
+ screwed up.
+
+* "git fast-export" did not export all tags.
+
+* "git ls-files --with-tree=<tree>" did not work with options other
+ than -c, most notably with -m.
+
+* "git pack-objects" did not make its best effort to honor --max-pack-size
+ option when a single first object already busted the given limit and
+ placed many objects in a single pack.
+
+* "git-p4" fast import frontend was too eager to trigger its keyword expansion
+ logic, even on a keyword-looking string that does not have closing '$' on the
+ same line.
+
+* "git push $there" when the remote $there is defined in $GIT_DIR/branches/$there
+ behaves more like what cg-push from Cogito used to work.
+
+* when giving up resolving a conflicted merge, "git reset --hard" failed
+ to remove new paths from the working tree.
+
+* "git tag" did not complain when given mutually incompatible set of options.
+
+* The message constructed in the internal editor was discarded when "git
+ tag -s" failed to sign the message, which was often caused by the user
+ not configuring GPG correctly.
+
+* "make check" cannot be run without sparse; people may have meant to say
+ "make test" instead, so suggest that.
+
+* Internal diff machinery had a corner case performance bug that choked on
+ a large file with many repeated contents.
+
+* "git repack" used to grab objects out of packs marked with .keep
+ into a new pack.
+
+* Many unsafe call to sprintf() style varargs functions are corrected.
+
+* Also contains quite a few documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.0.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since 1.6.0.5
+-------------------
+
+ * "git fsck" had a deep recursion that wasted stack space.
+
+ * "git fast-export" and "git fast-import" choked on an old style
+ annotated tag that lack the tagger information.
+
+ * "git mergetool -- file" did not correctly skip "--" marker that
+ signals the end of options list.
+
+ * "git show $tag" segfaulted when an annotated $tag pointed at a
+ nonexistent object.
+
+ * "git show 2>error" when the standard output is automatically redirected
+ to the pager redirected the standard error to the pager as well; there
+ was no need to.
+
+ * "git send-email" did not correctly handle list of addresses when
+ they had quoted comma (e.g. "Lastname, Givenname" <mail@addre.ss>).
+
+ * Logic to discover branch ancestry in "git svn" was unreliable when
+ the process to fetch history was interrupted.
+
+ * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose
+ implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing,
+ which would have run an external diff command specified in the
+ repository configuration as the gitweb user.
+
+Also contains numerous documentation typofixes.

+GIT v1.6.0 Release Notes
+========================
+
+User visible changes
+--------------------
+
+With the default Makefile settings, most of the programs are now
+installed outside your $PATH, except for "git", "gitk" and
+some server side programs that need to be accessible for technical
+reasons. Invoking a git subcommand as "git-xyzzy" from the command
+line has been deprecated since early 2006 (and officially announced in
+1.5.4 release notes); use of them from your scripts after adding
+output from "git --exec-path" to the $PATH is still supported in this
+release, but users are again strongly encouraged to adjust their
+scripts to use "git xyzzy" form, as we will stop installing
+"git-xyzzy" hardlinks for built-in commands in later releases.
+
+An earlier change to page "git status" output was overwhelmingly unpopular
+and has been reverted.
+
+Source changes needed for porting to MinGW environment are now all in the
+main git.git codebase.
+
+By default, packfiles created with this version uses delta-base-offset
+encoding introduced in v1.4.4. Pack idx files are using version 2 that
+allows larger packs and added robustness thanks to its CRC checking,
+introduced in v1.5.2 and v1.4.4.5. If you want to keep your repositories
+backwards compatible past these versions, set repack.useDeltaBaseOffset
+to false or pack.indexVersion to 1, respectively.
+
+We used to prevent sample hook scripts shipped in templates/ from
+triggering by default by relying on the fact that we install them as
+unexecutable, but on some filesystems, this approach does not work.
+They are now shipped with ".sample" suffix. If you want to activate
+any of these samples as-is, rename them to drop the ".sample" suffix,
+instead of running "chmod +x" on them. For example, you can rename
+hooks/post-update.sample to hooks/post-update to enable the sample
+hook that runs update-server-info, in order to make repositories
+friendly to dumb protocols (i.e. HTTP).
+
+GIT_CONFIG, which was only documented as affecting "git config", but
+actually affected all git commands, now only affects "git config".
+GIT_LOCAL_CONFIG, also only documented as affecting "git config" and
+not different from GIT_CONFIG in a useful way, is removed.
+
+The ".dotest" temporary area "git am" and "git rebase" use is now moved
+inside the $GIT_DIR, to avoid mistakes of adding it to the project by
+accident.
+
+An ancient merge strategy "stupid" has been removed.
+
+
+Updates since v1.5.6
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+* git-p4 in contrib learned "allowSubmit" configuration to control on
+ which branch to allow "submit" subcommand.
+
+* git-gui learned to stage changes per-line.
+
+(portability)
+
+* Changes for MinGW port have been merged, thanks to Johannes Sixt and
+ gangs.
+
+* Sample hook scripts shipped in templates/ are now suffixed with
+ *.sample.
+
+* perl's in-place edit (-i) does not work well without backup files on Windows;
+ some tests are rewritten to cope with this.
+
+(documentation)
+
+* Updated howto/update-hook-example
+
+* Got rid of usage of "git-foo" from the tutorial and made typography
+ more consistent.
+
+* Disambiguating "--" between revs and paths is finally documented.
+
+(performance, robustness, sanity etc.)
+
+* index-pack used too much memory when dealing with a deep delta chain.
+ This has been optimized.
+
+* reduced excessive inlining to shrink size of the "git" binary.
+
+* verify-pack checks the object CRC when using version 2 idx files.
+
+* When an object is corrupt in a pack, the object became unusable even
+ when the same object is available in a loose form, We now try harder to
+ fall back to these redundant objects when able. In particular, "git
+ repack -a -f" can be used to fix such a corruption as long as necessary
+ objects are available.
+
+* Performance of "git-blame -C -C" operation is vastly improved.
+
+* git-clone does not create refs in loose form anymore (it behaves as
+ if you immediately ran git-pack-refs after cloning). This will help
+ repositories with insanely large number of refs.
+
+* core.fsyncobjectfiles configuration can be used to ensure that the loose
+ objects created will be fsync'ed (this is only useful on filesystems
+ that does not order data writes properly).
+
+* "git commit-tree" plumbing can make Octopus with more than 16 parents.
+ "git commit" has been capable of this for quite some time.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+* even more documentation pages are now accessible via "man" and "git help".
+
+* A new environment variable GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES can be used to stop
+ the discovery process of the toplevel of working tree; this may be useful
+ when you are working in a slow network disk and are outside any working tree,
+ as bash-completion and "git help" may still need to run in these places.
+
+* By default, stash entries never expire. Set reflogexpire in [gc
+ "refs/stash"] to a reasonable value to get traditional auto-expiration
+ behaviour back
+
+* Longstanding latency issue with bash completion script has been
+ addressed. This will need to be backmerged to 'maint' later.
+
+* pager.<cmd> configuration variable can be used to enable/disable the
+ default paging behaviour per command.
+
+* "git-add -i" has a new action 'e/dit' to allow you edit the patch hunk
+ manually.
+
+* git-am records the original tip of the branch in ORIG_HEAD before it
+ starts applying patches.
+
+* git-apply can handle a patch that touches the same path more than once
+ much better than before.
+
+* git-apply can be told not to trust the line counts recorded in the input
+ patch but recount, with the new --recount option.
+
+* git-apply can be told to apply a patch to a path deeper than what the
+ patch records with --directory option.
+
+* git-archive can be told to omit certain paths from its output using
+ export-ignore attributes.
+
+* git-archive uses the zlib default compression level when creating
+ zip archive.
+
+* git-archive's command line options --exec and --remote can take their
+ parameters as separate command line arguments, similar to other commands.
+ IOW, both "--exec=path" and "--exec path" are now supported.
+
+* With -v option, git-branch describes the remote tracking statistics
+ similar to the way git-checkout reports by how many commits your branch
+ is ahead/behind.
+
+* git-branch's --contains option used to always require a commit parameter
+ to limit the branches with; it now defaults to list branches that
+ contains HEAD if this parameter is omitted.
+
+* git-branch's --merged and --no-merged option used to always limit the
+ branches relative to the HEAD, but they can now take an optional commit
+ argument that is used in place of HEAD.
+
+* git-bundle can read the revision arguments from the standard input.
+
+* git-cherry-pick can replay a root commit now.
+
+* git-clone can clone from a remote whose URL would be rewritten by
+ configuration stored in $HOME/.gitconfig now.
+
+* "git-clone --mirror" is a handy way to set up a bare mirror repository.
+
+* git-cvsserver learned to respond to "cvs co -c".
+
+* git-diff --check now checks leftover merge conflict markers.
+
+* "git-diff -p" learned to grab a better hunk header lines in
+ BibTex, Pascal/Delphi, and Ruby files and also pays attention to
+ chapter and part boundary in TeX documents.
+
+* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
+ it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
+ branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest
+ pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
+ of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.
+
+* fast-export learned to export and import marks file; this can be used to
+ interface with fast-import incrementally.
+
+* fast-import and fast-export learned to export and import gitlinks.
+
+* "gitk" left background process behind after being asked to dig very deep
+ history and the user killed the UI; the process is killed when the UI goes
+ away now.
+
+* git-rebase records the original tip of branch in ORIG_HEAD before it is
+ rewound.
+
+* "git rerere" can be told to update the index with auto-reused resolution
+ with rerere.autoupdate configuration variable.
+
+* git-rev-parse learned $commit^! and $commit^@ notations used in "log"
+ family. These notations are available in gitk as well, because the gitk
+ command internally uses rev-parse to interpret its arguments.
+
+* git-rev-list learned --children option to show child commits it
+ encountered during the traversal, instead of showing parent commits.
+
+* git-send-mail can talk not just over SSL but over TLS now.
+
+* git-shortlog honors custom output format specified with "--pretty=format:".
+
+* "git-stash save" learned --keep-index option. This lets you stash away the
+ local changes and bring the changes staged in the index to your working
+ tree for examination and testing.
+
+* git-stash also learned branch subcommand to create a new branch out of
+ stashed changes.
+
+* git-status gives the remote tracking statistics similar to the way
+ git-checkout reports by how many commits your branch is ahead/behind.
+
+* "git-svn dcommit" is now aware of auto-props setting the subversion user
+ has.
+
+* You can tell "git status -u" to even more aggressively omit checking
+ untracked files with --untracked-files=no.
+
+* Original SHA-1 value for "update-ref -d" is optional now.
+
+* Error codes from gitweb are made more descriptive where possible, rather
+ than "403 forbidden" as we used to issue everywhere.
+
+(internal)
+
+* git-merge has been reimplemented in C.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.5.6
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.5.6 maintenance series are included in
+this release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * git-clone ignored its -u option; the fix needs to be backported to
+ 'maint';
+
+ * git-mv used to lose the distinction between changes that are staged
+ and that are only in the working tree, by staging both in the index
+ after moving such a path.
+
+ * "git-rebase -i -p" rewrote the parents to wrong ones when amending
+ (either edit or squash) was involved, and did not work correctly
+ when fast forwarding.

+GIT v1.6.1.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.1
+------------------
+
+* "git add frotz/nitfol" when "frotz" is a submodule should have errored
+ out, but it didn't.
+
+* "git apply" took file modes from the patch text and updated the mode
+ bits of the target tree even when the patch was not about mode changes.
+
+* "git bisect view" on Cygwin did not launch gitk
+
+* "git checkout $tree" did not trigger an error.
+
+* "git commit" tried to remove COMMIT_EDITMSG from the work tree by mistake.
+
+* "git describe --all" complained when a commit is described with a tag,
+ which was nonsense.
+
+* "git diff --no-index --" did not trigger no-index (aka "use git-diff as
+ a replacement of diff on untracked files") behaviour.
+
+* "git format-patch -1 HEAD" on a root commit failed to produce patch
+ text.
+
+* "git fsck branch" did not work as advertised; instead it behaved the same
+ way as "git fsck".
+
+* "git log --pretty=format:%s" did not handle a multi-line subject the
+ same way as built-in log listers (i.e. shortlog, --pretty=oneline, etc.)
+
+* "git daemon", and "git merge-file" are more careful when freopen fails
+ and barf, instead of going on and writing to unopened filehandle.
+
+* "git http-push" did not like some RFC 4918 compliant DAV server
+ responses.
+
+* "git merge -s recursive" mistakenly overwritten an untracked file in the
+ work tree upon delete/modify conflict.
+
+* "git merge -s recursive" didn't leave the index unmerged for entries with
+ rename/delete conflicts.
+
+* "git merge -s recursive" clobbered untracked files in the work tree.
+
+* "git mv -k" with more than one erroneous paths misbehaved.
+
+* "git read-tree -m -u" hence branch switching incorrectly lost a
+ subdirectory in rare cases.
+
+* "git rebase -i" issued an unnecessary error message upon a user error of
+ marking the first commit to be "squash"ed.
+
+* "git shortlog" did not format a commit message with multi-line
+ subject correctly.
+
+Many documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.1.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.1.1
+--------------------
+
+* The logic for rename detection in internal diff used by commands like
+ "git diff" and "git blame" has been optimized to avoid loading the same
+ blob repeatedly.
+
+* We did not allow writing out a blob that is larger than 2GB for no good
+ reason.
+
+* "git format-patch -o $dir", when $dir is a relative directory, used it
+ as relative to the root of the work tree, not relative to the current
+ directory.
+
+* v1.6.1 introduced an optimization for "git push" into a repository (A)
+ that borrows its objects from another repository (B) to avoid sending
+ objects that are available in repository B, when they are not yet used
+ by repository A. However the code on the "git push" sender side was
+ buggy and did not work when repository B had new objects that are not
+ known by the sender. This caused pushing into a "forked" repository
+ served by v1.6.1 software using "git push" from v1.6.1 sometimes did not
+ work. The bug was purely on the "git push" sender side, and has been
+ corrected.
+
+* "git status -v" did not paint its diff output in colour even when
+ color.ui configuration was set.
+
+* "git ls-tree" learned --full-tree option to help Porcelain scripts that
+ want to always see the full path regardless of the current working
+ directory.
+
+* "git grep" incorrectly searched in work tree paths even when they are
+ marked as assume-unchanged. It now searches in the index entries.
+
+* "git gc" with no grace period needlessly ejected packed but unreachable
+ objects in their loose form, only to delete them right away.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.1.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.1.2
+--------------------
+
+* "git diff --binary | git apply" pipeline did not work well when
+ a binary blob is changed to a symbolic link.
+
+* Some combinations of -b/-w/--ignore-space-at-eol to "git diff" did
+ not work as expected.
+
+* "git grep" did not pass the -I (ignore binary) option when
+ calling out an external grep program.
+
+* "git log" and friends include HEAD to the set of starting points
+ when --all is given. This makes a difference when you are not
+ on any branch.
+
+* "git mv" to move an untracked file to overwrite a tracked
+ contents misbehaved.
+
+* "git merge -s octopus" with many potential merge bases did not
+ work correctly.
+
+* RPM binary package installed the html manpages in a wrong place.
+
+Also includes minor documentation fixes and updates.

--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.1.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.1.3
+--------------------
+
+* .gitignore learned to handle backslash as a quoting mechanism for
+ comment introduction character "#".
+ This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.1.
+
+* "git fast-export" produced wrong output with some parents missing from
+ commits, when the history is clock-skewed.
+
+* "git fast-import" sometimes failed to read back objects it just wrote
+ out and aborted, because it failed to flush stale cached data.
+
+* "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when
+ deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the
+ individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match
+ "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/",
+ and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't).
+ This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.3.
+
+* import-zips script (in contrib) did not compute the common directory
+ prefix correctly.
+ This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.2.
+
+* "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via
+ the --template= option.
+ This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.4.
+
+* "git repack" did not error out when necessary object was missing in the
+ repository.
+
+* git-repack (invoked from git-gc) did not work as nicely as it should in
+ a repository that borrows objects from neighbours via alternates
+ mechanism especially when some packs are marked with the ".keep" flag
+ to prevent them from being repacked.
+ This fix was first merged to 1.6.2.3.
+
+Also includes minor documentation fixes and updates.

--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.1 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.6.0
+--------------------
+
+When some commands (e.g. "git log", "git diff") spawn pager internally, we
+used to make the pager the parent process of the git command that produces
+output. This meant that the exit status of the whole thing comes from the
+pager, not the underlying git command. We swapped the order of the
+processes around and you will see the exit code from the command from now
+on.
+
+(subsystems)
+
+* gitk can call out to git-gui to view "git blame" output; git-gui in turn
+ can run gitk from its blame view.
+
+* Various git-gui updates including updated translations.
+
+* Various gitweb updates from repo.or.cz installation.
+
+* Updates to emacs bindings.
+
+(portability)
+
+* A few test scripts used nonportable "grep" that did not work well on
+ some platforms, e.g. Solaris.
+
+* Sample pre-auto-gc script has OS X support.
+
+* Makefile has support for (ancient) FreeBSD 4.9.
+
+(performance)
+
+* Many operations that are lstat(3) heavy can be told to pre-execute
+ necessary lstat(3) in parallel before their main operations, which
+ potentially gives much improved performance for cold-cache cases or in
+ environments with weak metadata caching (e.g. NFS).
+
+* The underlying diff machinery to produce textual output has been
+ optimized, which would result in faster "git blame" processing.
+
+* Most of the test scripts (but not the ones that try to run servers)
+ can be run in parallel.
+
+* Bash completion of refnames in a repository with massive number of
+ refs has been optimized.
+
+* Cygwin port uses native stat/lstat implementations when applicable,
+ which leads to improved performance.
+
+* "git push" pays attention to alternate repositories to avoid sending
+ unnecessary objects.
+
+* "git svn" can rebuild an out-of-date rev_map file.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+* When you mistype a command name, git helpfully suggests what it guesses
+ you might have meant to say. help.autocorrect configuration can be set
+ to a non-zero value to accept the suggestion when git can uniquely
+ guess.
+
+* The packfile machinery hopefully is more robust when dealing with
+ corrupt packs if redundant objects involved in the corruption are
+ available elsewhere.
+
+* "git add -N path..." adds the named paths as an empty blob, so that
+ subsequent "git diff" will show a diff as if they are creation events.
+
+* "git add" gained a built-in synonym for people who want to say "stage
+ changes" instead of "add contents to the staging area" which amounts
+ to the same thing.
+
+* "git apply" learned --include=paths option, similar to the existing
+ --exclude=paths option.
+
+* "git bisect" is careful about a user mistake and suggests testing of
+ merge base first when good is not a strict ancestor of bad.
+
+* "git bisect skip" can take a range of commits.
+
+* "git blame" re-encodes the commit metainfo to UTF-8 from i18n.commitEncoding
+ by default.
+
+* "git check-attr --stdin" can check attributes for multiple paths.
+
+* "git checkout --track origin/hack" used to be a syntax error. It now
+ DWIMs to create a corresponding local branch "hack", i.e. acts as if you
+ said "git checkout --track -b hack origin/hack".
+
+* "git checkout --ours/--theirs" can be used to check out one side of a
+ conflicting merge during conflict resolution.
+
+* "git checkout -m" can be used to recreate the initial conflicted state
+ during conflict resolution.
+
+* "git cherry-pick" can also utilize rerere for conflict resolution.
+
+* "git clone" learned to be verbose with -v
+
+* "git commit --author=$name" can look up author name from existing
+ commits.
+
+* output from "git commit" has been reworded in a more concise and yet
+ more informative way.
+
+* "git count-objects" reports the on-disk footprint for packfiles and
+ their corresponding idx files.
+
+* "git daemon" learned --max-connections=<count> option.
+
+* "git daemon" exports REMOTE_ADDR to record client address, so that
+ spawned programs can act differently on it.
+
+* "git describe --tags" favours closer lightweight tags than farther
+ annotated tags now.
+
+* "git diff" learned to mimic --suppress-blank-empty from GNU diff via a
+ configuration option.
+
+* "git diff" learned to put more sensible hunk headers for Python,
+ HTML and ObjC contents.
+
+* "git diff" learned to vary the a/ vs b/ prefix depending on what are
+ being compared, controlled by diff.mnemonicprefix configuration.
+
+* "git diff" learned --dirstat-by-file to count changed files, not number
+ of lines, when summarizing the global picture.
+
+* "git diff" learned "textconv" filters --- a binary or hard-to-read
+ contents can be munged into human readable form and the difference
+ between the results of the conversion can be viewed (obviously this
+ cannot produce a patch that can be applied, so this is disabled in
+ format-patch among other things).
+
+* "--cached" option to "git diff has an easier to remember synonym "--staged",
+ to ask "what is the difference between the given commit and the
+ contents staged in the index?"
+
+* "git for-each-ref" learned "refname:short" token that gives an
+ unambiguously abbreviated refname.
+
+* Auto-numbering of the subject lines is the default for "git
+ format-patch" now.
+
+* "git grep" learned to accept -z similar to GNU grep.
+
+* "git help" learned to use GIT_MAN_VIEWER environment variable before
+ using "man" program.
+
+* "git imap-send" can optionally talk SSL.
+
+* "git index-pack" is more careful against disk corruption while
+ completing a thin pack.
+
+* "git log --check" and "git log --exit-code" passes their underlying diff
+ status with their exit status code.
+
+* "git log" learned --simplify-merges, a milder variant of --full-history;
+ "gitk --simplify-merges" is easier to view than with --full-history.
+
+* "git log" learned "--source" to show what ref each commit was reached
+ from.
+
+* "git log" also learned "--simplify-by-decoration" to show the
+ birds-eye-view of the topology of the history.
+
+* "git log --pretty=format:" learned "%d" format element that inserts
+ names of tags that point at the commit.
+
+* "git merge --squash" and "git merge --no-ff" into an unborn branch are
+ noticed as user errors.
+
+* "git merge -s $strategy" can use a custom built strategy if you have a
+ command "git-merge-$strategy" on your $PATH.
+
+* "git pull" (and "git fetch") can be told to operate "-v"erbosely or
+ "-q"uietly.
+
+* "git push" can be told to reject deletion of refs with receive.denyDeletes
+ configuration.
+
+* "git rebase" honours pre-rebase hook; use --no-verify to bypass it.
+
+* "git rebase -p" uses interactive rebase machinery now to preserve the merges.
+
+* "git reflog expire branch" can be used in place of "git reflog expire
+ refs/heads/branch".
+
+* "git remote show $remote" lists remote branches one-per-line now.
+
+* "git send-email" can be given revision range instead of files and
+ maildirs on the command line, and automatically runs format-patch to
+ generate patches for the given revision range.
+
+* "git submodule foreach" subcommand allows you to iterate over checked
+ out submodules.
+
+* "git submodule sync" subcommands allows you to update the origin URL
+ recorded in submodule directories from the toplevel .gitmodules file.
+
+* "git svn branch" can create new branches on the other end.
+
+* "gitweb" can use more saner PATH_INFO based URL.
+
+(internal)
+
+* "git hash-object" learned to lie about the path being hashed, so that
+ correct gitattributes processing can be done while hashing contents
+ stored in a temporary file.
+
+* various callers of git-merge-recursive avoid forking it as an external
+ process.
+
+* Git class defined in "Git.pm" can be subclasses a bit more easily.
+
+* We used to link GNU regex library as a compatibility layer for some
+ platforms, but it turns out it is not necessary on most of them.
+
+* Some path handling routines used fixed number of buffers used alternately
+ but depending on the call depth, this arrangement led to hard to track
+ bugs. This issue is being addressed.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.6.0
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.0.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+* Porcelains implemented as shell scripts were utterly confused when you
+ entered to a subdirectory of a work tree from sideways, following a
+ symbolic link (this may need to be backported to older releases later).
+
+* Tracking symbolic links would work better on filesystems whose lstat()
+ returns incorrect st_size value for them.
+
+* "git add" and "git update-index" incorrectly allowed adding S/F when S
+ is a tracked symlink that points at a directory D that has a path F in
+ it (we still need to fix a similar nonsense when S is a submodule and F
+ is a path in it).
+
+* "git am" after stopping at a broken patch lost --whitespace, -C, -p and
+ --3way options given from the command line initially.
+
+* "git diff --stdin" used to take two trees on a line and compared them,
+ but we dropped support for such a use case long time ago. This has
+ been resurrected.
+
+* "git filter-branch" failed to rewrite a tag name with slashes in it.
+
+* "git http-push" did not understand URI scheme other than opaquelocktoken
+ when acquiring a lock from the server (this may need to be backported to
+ older releases later).
+
+* After "git rebase -p" stopped with conflicts while replaying a merge,
+ "git rebase --continue" did not work (may need to be backported to older
+ releases).
+
+* "git revert" records relative to which parent a revert was made when
+ reverting a merge. Together with new documentation that explains issues
+ around reverting a merge and merging from the updated branch later, this
+ hopefully will reduce user confusion (this may need to be backported to
+ older releases later).
+
+* "git rm --cached" used to allow an empty blob that was added earlier to
+ be removed without --force, even when the file in the work tree has
+ since been modified.
+
+* "git push --tags --all $there" failed with generic usage message without
+ telling saying these two options are incompatible.
+
+* "git log --author/--committer" match used to potentially match the
+ timestamp part, exposing internal implementation detail. Also these did
+ not work with --fixed-strings match at all.
+
+* "gitweb" did not mark non-ASCII characters imported from external HTML fragments
+ correctly.

+GIT v1.6.2.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.2
+------------------
+
+* .gitignore learned to handle backslash as a quoting mechanism for
+ comment introduction character "#".
+
+* timestamp output in --date=relative mode used to display timestamps that
+ are long time ago in the default mode; it now uses "N years M months
+ ago", and "N years ago".

+* git-add -i/-p now works with non-ASCII pathnames.

+* "git hash-object -w" did not read from the configuration file from the
+ correct .git directory.

+GIT v1.6.2.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.2.1
+--------------------
+
+* A longstanding confusing description of what --pickaxe option of
+ git-diff does has been clarified in the documentation.
+
+* "git-blame -S" did not quite work near the commits that were given
+ on the command line correctly.
+
+* "git diff --pickaxe-regexp" did not count overlapping matches
+ correctly.
+
+* "git diff" did not feed files in work-tree representation to external
+ diff and textconv.
+
+* "git-fetch" in a repository that was not cloned from anywhere said
+ it cannot find 'origin', which was hard to understand for new people.
+
+* "git-format-patch --numbered-files --stdout" did not have to die of
+ incompatible options; it now simply ignores --numbered-files as no files
+ are produced anyway.
+
+* "git-ls-files --deleted" did not work well with GIT_DIR&GIT_WORK_TREE.
+
+* "git-read-tree A B C..." without -m option has been broken for a long
+ time.
+
+* git-send-email ignored --in-reply-to when --no-thread was given.
+
+* 'git-submodule add' did not tolerate extra slashes and ./ in the path it
+ accepted from the command line; it now is more lenient.
+
+* git-svn misbehaved when the project contained a path that began with
+ two dashes.
+
+* import-zips script (in contrib) did not compute the common directory
+ prefix correctly.
+
+* miscompilation of negated enum constants by old gcc (2.9) affected the
+ codepaths to spawn subprocesses.
+
+Many small documentation updates are included as well.

+GIT v1.6.2.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.2.2
+--------------------
+
+* Setting an octal mode value to core.sharedrepository configuration to

+ advertised.
+
+* A fairly large and trivial memory leak while rev-list shows list of
+ reachable objects has been identified and plugged.
+
+* "git-commit --interactive" did not abort when underlying "git-add -i"
+ signaled a failure.
+
+* git-repack (invoked from git-gc) did not work as nicely as it should in
+ a repository that borrows objects from neighbours via alternates
+ mechanism especially when some packs are marked with the ".keep" flag
+ to prevent them from being repacked.
+

+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.2.3
+--------------------
+
+* The configuration parser had a buffer overflow while parsing an overlong
+ value.
+
+* pruning reflog entries that are unreachable from the tip of the ref
+ during "git reflog prune" (hence "git gc") was very inefficient.
+
+* "git-add -p" lacked a way to say "q"uit to refuse staging any hunks for
+ the remaining paths. You had to say "d" and then ^C.
+
+* "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at
+ the named path; it now does.
+
+* "git-fast-export" choked when seeing a tag that does not point at commit.
+
+* "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via
+ the --template= option.
+
+* "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when
+ deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the
+ individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match
+ "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/",
+ and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't).
+
+* "git-merge-recursive" was broken when a submodule entry was involved in
+ a criss-cross merge situation.
+
+Many small documentation updates are included as well.

+GIT v1.6.2.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.2.4
+--------------------
+
+* "git apply" mishandled if you fed a git generated patch that renames
+ file A to B and file B to A at the same time.
+
+* "git diff -c -p" (and "diff --cc") did not expect to see submodule
+ differences and instead refused to work.
+
+* "git grep -e '('" segfaulted, instead of diagnosing a mismatched
+ parentheses error.
+
+* "git fetch" generated packs with offset-delta encoding when both ends of
+ the connection are capable of producing one; this cannot be read by
+ ancient git and the user should be able to disable this by setting
+ repack.usedeltabaseoffset configuration to false.
+
+
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.2 Release Notes
+========================
+
+With the next major release, "git push" into a branch that is
+currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose
+what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration
+variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository.
+
+To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
+push running this release will issue a big warning when the
+configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
+
+ http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
+ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
+
+for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
+transition plan.
+
+For a similar reason, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch
+$killed in a remote repository $there, if $killed branch is the current
+branch pointed at by its HEAD, gets a large warning. You can choose what
+should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable
+receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository.
+
+
+Updates since v1.6.1
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+* git-svn updates.
+
+* gitweb updates, including a new patch view and RSS/Atom feed
+ improvements.
+
+* (contrib/emacs) git.el now has commands for checking out a branch,
+ creating a branch, cherry-picking and reverting commits; vc-git.el
+ is not shipped with git anymore (it is part of official Emacs).
+
+(performance)
+
+* pack-objects autodetects the number of CPUs available and uses threaded
+ version.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+* automatic typo correction works on aliases as well
+
+* @{-1} is a way to refer to the last branch you were on. This is
+ accepted not only where an object name is expected, but anywhere
+ a branch name is expected and acts as if you typed the branch name.
+ E.g. "git branch --track mybranch @{-1}", "git merge @{-1}", and
+ "git rev-parse --symbolic-full-name @{-1}" would work as expected.
+
+* When refs/remotes/origin/HEAD points at a remote tracking branch that
+ has been pruned away, many git operations issued warning when they
+ internally enumerated the refs. We now warn only when you say "origin"
+ to refer to that pruned branch.
+
+* The location of .mailmap file can be configured, and its file format was
+ enhanced to allow mapping an incorrect e-mail field as well.
+
+* "git add -p" learned 'g'oto action to jump directly to a hunk.
+
+* "git add -p" learned to find a hunk with given text with '/'.
+
+* "git add -p" optionally can be told to work with just the command letter
+ without Enter.
+
+* when "git am" stops upon a patch that does not apply, it shows the
+ title of the offending patch.
+
+* "git am --directory=<dir>" and "git am --reject" passes these options
+ to underlying "git apply".
+
+* "git am" learned --ignore-date option.
+
+* "git blame" aligns author names better when they are spelled in
+ non US-ASCII encoding.
+
+* "git clone" now makes its best effort when cloning from an empty
+ repository to set up configuration variables to refer to the remote
+ repository.
+
+* "git checkout -" is a shorthand for "git checkout @{-1}".
+
+* "git cherry" defaults to whatever the current branch is tracking (if
+ exists) when the <upstream> argument is not given.
+
+* "git cvsserver" can be told not to add extra "via git-CVS emulator" to
+ the commit log message it serves via gitcvs.commitmsgannotation
+ configuration.
+
+* "git cvsserver" learned to handle 'noop' command some CVS clients seem
+ to expect to work.
+
+* "git diff" learned a new option --inter-hunk-context to coalesce close
+ hunks together and show context between them.
+
+* The definition of what constitutes a word for "git diff --color-words"
+ can be customized via gitattributes, command line or a configuration.
+
+* "git diff" learned --patience to run "patience diff" algorithm.
+
+* "git filter-branch" learned --prune-empty option that discards commits
+ that do not change the contents.
+
+* "git fsck" now checks loose objects in alternate object stores, instead
+ of misreporting them as missing.
+
+* "git gc --prune" was resurrected to allow "git gc --no-prune" and
+ giving non-default expiration period e.g. "git gc --prune=now".
+
+* "git grep -w" and "git grep" for fixed strings have been optimized.
+
+* "git mergetool" learned -y(--no-prompt) option to disable prompting.
+
+* "git rebase -i" can transplant a history down to root to elsewhere
+ with --root option.
+
+* "git reset --merge" is a new mode that works similar to the way
+ "git checkout" switches branches, taking the local changes while
+ switching to another commit.
+
+* "git submodule update" learned --no-fetch option.
+
+* "git tag" learned --contains that works the same way as the same option
+ from "git branch".
+
+
+Fixes since v1.6.1
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.1.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
+v1.6.1.X series.
+
+* "git-add sub/file" when sub is a submodule incorrectly added the path to
+ the superproject.
+
+* "git bundle" did not exclude annotated tags even when a range given
+ from the command line wanted to.
+
+* "git filter-branch" unnecessarily refused to work when you had
+ checked out a different commit from what is recorded in the superproject
+ index in a submodule.
+
+* "git filter-branch" incorrectly tried to update a nonexistent work tree
+ at the end when it is run in a bare repository.
+
+* "git gc" did not work if your repository was created with an ancient git
+ and never had any pack files in it before.
+
+* "git mergetool" used to ignore autocrlf and other attributes
+ based content rewriting.
+
+* branch switching and merges had a silly bug that did not validate
+ the correct directory when making sure an existing subdirectory is
+ clean.
+
+* "git -p cmd" when cmd is not a built-in one left the display in funny state
+ when killed in the middle.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.3.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.3
+------------------
+
+* "git checkout -b new-branch" with a staged change in the index
+ incorrectly primed the in-index cache-tree, resulting a wrong tree
+ object to be written out of the index. This is a grave regression
+ since the last 1.6.2.X maintenance release.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.3.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.3.1
+--------------------
+
+ * A few codepaths picked up the first few bytes from an sha1[] by
+ casting the (char *) pointer to (int *); GCC 4.4 did not like this,
+ and aborted compilation.
+
+ * Some unlink(2) failures went undiagnosed.
+
+ * The "recursive" merge strategy misbehaved when faced rename/delete
+ conflicts while coming up with an intermediate merge base.
+
+ * The low-level merge algorithm did not handle a degenerate case of
+ merging a file with itself using itself as the common ancestor
+ gracefully. It should produce the file itself, but instead
+ produced an empty result.
+
+ * GIT_TRACE mechanism segfaulted when tracing a shell-quoted aliases.
+
+ * OpenBSD also uses st_ctimspec in "struct stat", instead of "st_ctim".
+
+ * With NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS, "make install" can be told not to
+ create hardlinks between $(gitexecdir)/git-$builtin_commands and
+ $(bindir)/git.
+
+ * command completion code in bash did not reliably detect that we are
+ in a bare repository.
+
+ * "git add ." in an empty directory complained that pathspec "." did not
+ match anything, which may be technically correct, but not useful. We
+ silently make it a no-op now.
+
+ * "git add -p" (and "patch" action in "git add -i") was broken when
+ the first hunk that adds a line at the top was split into two and
+ both halves are marked to be used.
+
+ * "git blame path" misbehaved at the commit where path became file
+ from a directory with some files in it.
+
+ * "git for-each-ref" had a segfaulting bug when dealing with a tag object
+ created by an ancient git.
+
+ * "git format-patch -k" still added patch numbers if format.numbered
+ configuration was set.
+
+ * "git grep --color ''" did not terminate. The command also had
+ subtle bugs with its -w option.
+
+ * http-push had a small use-after-free bug.
+
+ * "git push" was converting OFS_DELTA pack representation into less
+ efficient REF_DELTA representation unconditionally upon transfer,
+ making the transferred data unnecessarily larger.
+
+ * "git remote show origin" segfaulted when origin was still empty.
+
+Many other general usability updates around help text, diagnostic messages
+and documentation are included as well.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.3.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.3.2
+--------------------
+
+ * "git archive" running on Cygwin can get stuck in an infinite loop.
+
+ * "git daemon" did not correctly parse the initial line that carries
+ virtual host request information.
+
+ * "git diff --textconv" leaked memory badly when the textconv filter
+ errored out.
+
+ * The built-in regular expressions to pick function names to put on
+ hunk header lines for java and objc were very inefficiently written.
+
+ * in certain error situations git-fetch (and git-clone) on Windows didn't
+ detect connection abort and ended up waiting indefinitely.
+
+ * import-tars script (in contrib) did not import symbolic links correctly.
+
+ * http.c used CURLOPT_SSLKEY even on libcURL version 7.9.2, even though
+ it was only available starting 7.9.3.
+
+ * low-level filelevel merge driver used return value from strdup()
+ without checking if we ran out of memory.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" left stray closing parenthesis in its reflog message.
+
+ * "git remote show" did not show all the URLs associated with the named
+ remote, even though "git remote -v" did. Made them consistent by
+ making the former show all URLs.
+
+ * "whitespace" attribute that is set was meant to detect all errors known
+ to git, but it told git to ignore trailing carriage-returns.
+
+Includes other documentation fixes.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.3.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.3.3
+--------------------
+
+ * "git add --no-ignore-errors" did not override configured
+ add.ignore-errors configuration.
+
+ * "git apply --whitespace=fix" did not fix trailing whitespace on an
+ incomplete line.
+
+ * "git branch" opened too many commit objects unnecessarily.
+
+ * "git checkout -f $commit" with a path that is a file (or a symlink) in
+ the work tree to a commit that has a directory at the path issued an
+ unnecessary error message.
+
+ * "git diff -c/--cc" was very inefficient in coalescing the removed lines
+ shared between parents.
+
+ * "git diff -c/--cc" showed removed lines at the beginning of a file
+ incorrectly.
+
+ * "git remote show nickname" did not honor configured
+ remote.nickname.uploadpack when inspecting the branches at the remote.
+
+ * "git request-pull" when talking to the terminal for a preview
+ showed some of the output in the pager.
+
+ * "git request-pull start nickname [end]" did not honor configured
+ remote.nickname.uploadpack when it ran git-ls-remote against the remote
+ repository to learn the current tip of branches.
+
+Includes other documentation updates and minor fixes.
+
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.3 Release Notes
+========================
+
+With the next major release, "git push" into a branch that is
+currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose
+what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration
+variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository.
+
+To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
+push running this release will issue a big warning when the
+configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
+
+ http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
+ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
+
+for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
+transition plan.
+
+For a similar reason, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch
+$killed in a remote repository $there, if $killed branch is the current
+branch pointed at by its HEAD, gets a large warning. You can choose what
+should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable
+receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository.
+
+When the user does not tell "git push" what to push, it has always
+pushed matching refs. For some people it is unexpected, and a new
+configuration variable push.default has been introduced to allow
+changing a different default behaviour. To advertise the new feature,
+a big warning is issued if this is not configured and a git push without
+arguments is attempted.
+
+
+Updates since v1.6.2
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+* various git-svn updates.
+
+* git-gui updates, including an update to Russian translation, and a
+ fix to an infinite loop when showing an empty diff.
+
+* gitk updates, including an update to Russian translation and improved Windows
+ support.
+
+(performance)
+
+* many uses of lstat(2) in the codepath for "git checkout" have been
+ optimized out.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+* Boolean configuration variable yes/no can be written as on/off.
+
+* rsync:/path/to/repo can be used to run git over rsync for local
+ repositories. It may not be useful in practice; meant primarily for
+ testing.
+
+* http transport learned to prompt and use password when fetching from or
+ pushing to http://user@host.xz/ URL.
+
+* (msysgit) progress output that is sent over the sideband protocol can
+ be handled appropriately in Windows console.
+
+* "--pretty=<style>" option to the log family of commands can now be
+ spelled as "--format=<style>". In addition, --format=%formatstring
+ is a short-hand for --pretty=tformat:%formatstring.
+
+* "--oneline" is a synonym for "--pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit".
+
+* "--graph" to the "git log" family can draw the commit ancestry graph
+ in colors.
+
+* If you realize that you botched the patch when you are editing hunks
+ with the 'edit' action in git-add -i/-p, you can abort the editor to
+ tell git not to apply it.
+
+* @{-1} is a new way to refer to the last branch you were on introduced in
+ 1.6.2, but the initial implementation did not teach this to a few
+ commands. Now the syntax works with "branch -m @{-1} newname".
+
+* git-archive learned --output=<file> option.
+
+* git-archive takes attributes from the tree being archived; strictly
+ speaking, this is an incompatible behaviour change, but is a good one.
+ Use --worktree-attributes option to allow it to read attributes from
+ the work tree as before (deprecated git-tar tree command always reads
+ attributes from the work tree).
+
+* git-bisect shows not just the number of remaining commits whose goodness
+ is unknown, but also shows the estimated number of remaining rounds.
+
+* You can give --date=<format> option to git-blame.
+
+* "git-branch -r" shows HEAD symref that points at a remote branch in
+ interest of each tracked remote repository.
+
+* "git-branch -v -v" is a new way to get list of names for branches and the
+ "upstream" branch for them.
+
+* git-config learned -e option to open an editor to edit the config file
+ directly.
+
+* git-clone runs post-checkout hook when run without --no-checkout.
+
+* git-difftool is now part of the officially supported command, primarily
+ maintained by David Aguilar.
+
+* git-for-each-ref learned a new "upstream" token.
+
+* git-format-patch can be told to use attachment with a new configuration,
+ format.attach.
+
+* git-format-patch can be told to produce deep or shallow message threads.
+
+* git-format-patch can be told to always add sign-off with a configuration
+ variable.
+
+* git-format-patch learned format.headers configuration to add extra
+ header fields to the output. This behaviour is similar to the existing
+ --add-header=<header> option of the command.
+
+* git-format-patch gives human readable names to the attached files, when
+ told to send patches as attachments.
+
+* git-grep learned to highlight the found substrings in color.
+
+* git-imap-send learned to work around Thunderbird's inability to easily
+ disable format=flowed with a new configuration, imap.preformattedHTML.
+
+* git-rebase can be told to rebase the series even if your branch is a
+ descendant of the commit you are rebasing onto with --force-rebase
+ option.
+
+* git-rebase can be told to report diffstat with the --stat option.
+
+* Output from git-remote command has been vastly improved.
+
+* "git remote update --prune $remote" updates from the named remote and
+ then prunes stale tracking branches.
+
+* git-send-email learned --confirm option to review the Cc: list before
+ sending the messages out.
+
+(developers)
+
+* Test scripts can be run under valgrind.
+
+* Test scripts can be run with installed git.
+
+* Makefile learned 'coverage' option to run the test suites with
+ coverage tracking enabled.
+
+* Building the manpages with docbook-xsl between 1.69.1 and 1.71.1 now
+ requires setting DOCBOOK_SUPPRESS_SP to work around a docbook-xsl bug.
+ This workaround used to be enabled by default, but causes problems
+ with newer versions of docbook-xsl. In addition, there are a few more
+ knobs you can tweak to work around issues with various versions of the
+ docbook-xsl package. See comments in Documentation/Makefile for details.
+
+* Support for building and testing a subset of git on a system without a
+ working perl has been improved.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.6.2
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.2.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
+v1.6.2.X series.
+
+* "git-apply" rejected a patch that swaps two files (i.e. renames A to B
+ and B to A at the same time). May need to be backported by cherry
+ picking d8c81df and then 7fac0ee).
+
+* The initial checkout did not read the attributes from the .gitattribute
+ file that is being checked out.
+
+* git-gc spent excessive amount of time to decide if an object appears
+ in a locally existing pack (if needed, backport by merging 69e020a).
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.4.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.4
+------------------
+
+ * An unquoted value in the configuration file, when it contains more than
+ one whitespaces in a row, got them replaced with a single space.
+
+ * "git am" used to accept a single piece of e-mail per file (not a mbox)
+ as its input, but multiple input format support in v1.6.4 broke it.
+ Apparently many people have been depending on this feature.
+
+ * The short help text for "git filter-branch" command was a single long
+ line, wrapped by terminals, and was hard to read.
+
+ * The "recursive" strategy of "git merge" segfaulted when a merge has
+ more than one merge-bases, and merging of these merge-bases involves
+ a rename/rename or a rename/add conflict.
+
+ * "git pull --rebase" did not use the right fork point when the
+ repository has already fetched from the upstream that rewinds the
+ branch it is based on in an earlier fetch.
+
+ * Explain the concept of fast-forward more fully in "git push"
+ documentation, and hint to refer to it from an error message when the
+ command refuses an update to protect the user.
+
+ * The default value for pack.deltacachesize, used by "git repack", is now
+ 256M, instead of unbounded. Otherwise a repack of a moderately sized
+ repository would needlessly eat into swap.
+
+ * Document how "git repack" (hence "git gc") interacts with a repository
+ that borrows its objects from other repositories (e.g. ones created by
+ "git clone -s").
+
+ * "git show" on an annotated tag lacked a delimiting blank line between
+ the tag itself and the contents of the object it tags.
+
+ * "git verify-pack -v" erroneously reported number of objects with too
+ deep delta depths as "chain length 0" objects.
+
+ * Long names of authors and committers outside US-ASCII were sometimes
+ incorrectly shown in "gitweb".
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.4.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.4.1
+--------------------
+
+* --date=relative output between 1 and 5 years ago rounded the number of
+ years when saying X years Y months ago, instead of rounding it down.
+
+* "git add -p" did not handle changes in executable bits correctly
+ (a regression around 1.6.3).
+
+* "git apply" did not honor GNU diff's convention to mark the creation/deletion
+ event with UNIX epoch timestamp on missing side.
+
+* "git checkout" incorrectly removed files in a directory pointed by a
+ symbolic link during a branch switch that replaces a directory with
+ a symbolic link.
+
+* "git clean -d -f" happily descended into a subdirectory that is managed by a
+ separate git repository. It now requires two -f options for safety.
+
+* "git fetch/push" over http transports had two rather grave bugs.
+
+* "git format-patch --cover-letter" did not prepare the cover letter file
+ for use with non-ASCII strings when there are the series contributors with
+ non-ASCII names.
+
+* "git pull origin branch" and "git fetch origin && git merge origin/branch"
+ left different merge messages in the resulting commit.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.4.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.4.2
+--------------------
+
+* "git clone" from an empty repository gave unnecessary error message,
+ even though it did everything else correctly.
+
+* "git cvsserver" invoked git commands via "git-foo" style, which has long
+ been deprecated.
+
+* "git fetch" and "git clone" had an extra sanity check to verify the
+ presence of the corresponding *.pack file before downloading *.idx
+ file by issuing a HEAD request. Github server however sometimes
+ gave 500 (Internal server error) response to HEAD even if a GET
+ request for *.pack file to the same URL would have succeeded, and broke
+ clone over HTTP from some of their repositories. As a workaround, this
+ verification has been removed (as it is not absolutely necessary).
+
+* "git grep" did not like relative pathname to refer outside the current
+ directory when run from a subdirectory.
+
+* an error message from "git push" was formatted in a very ugly way.
+
+* "git svn" did not quote the subversion user name correctly when
+ running its author-prog helper program.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.4.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.4.4
+--------------------
+
+* The workaround for Github server that sometimes gave 500 (Internal server
+ error) response to HEAD requests in 1.6.4.3 introduced a regression that
+ caused re-fetching projects over http to segfault in certain cases due
+ to uninitialized pointer being freed.
+
+* "git pull" on an unborn branch used to consider anything in the work
+ tree and the index discardable.
+
+* "git diff -b/w" did not work well on the incomplete line at the end of
+ the file, due to an incorrect hashing of lines in the low-level xdiff
+ routines.
+
+* "git checkout-index --prefix=$somewhere" used to work when $somewhere is
+ a symbolic link to a directory elsewhere, but v1.6.4.2 broke it.
+
+* "git unpack-objects --strict", invoked when receive.fsckobjects
+ configuration is set in the receiving repository of "git push", did not
+ properly check the objects, especially the submodule links, it received.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.

+(subsystems)
+
+ * gitweb Perl style clean-up.
+
+ * git-svn updates, including a new --authors-prog option to map author
+ names by invoking an external program, 'git svn reset' to unwind
+ 'git svn fetch', support for more than one branches, documenting
+ of the useful --minimize-url feature, new "git svn gc" command, etc.
+
+(portability)
+
+ * We feed iconv with "UTF-8" instead of "utf8"; the former is
+ understood more widely. Similarly updated test scripts to use
+ encoding names more widely understood (e.g. use "ISO8859-1" instead
+ of "ISO-8859-1").
+
+ * Various portability fixes/workarounds for different vintages of
+ SunOS, IRIX, and Windows.
+
+ * Git-over-ssh transport on Windows supports PuTTY plink and TortoisePlink.
+
+(performance)
+
+ * Many repeated use of lstat() are optimized out in "checkout" codepath.
+
+ * git-status (and underlying git-diff-index --cached) are optimized
+ to take advantage of cache-tree information in the index.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+ * "git add --edit" lets users edit the whole patch text to fine-tune what
+ is added to the index.
+
+ * "git am" accepts StGIT series file as its input.
+
+ * "git bisect skip" skips to a more randomly chosen place in the hope
+ to avoid testing a commit that is too close to a commit that is
+ already known to be untestable.
+
+ * "git cvsexportcommit" learned -k option to stop CVS keywords expansion
+
+ * "git fast-export" learned to handle history simplification more
+ gracefully.
+
+ * "git fast-export" learned an option --tag-of-filtered-object to handle
+ dangling tags resulting from history simplification more usefully.
+
+ * "git grep" learned -p option to show the location of the match using the
+ same context hunk marker "git diff" uses.
+
+ * https transport can optionally be told that the used client
+ certificate is password protected, in which case it asks the
+ password only once.
+
+ * "git imap-send" is IPv6 aware.
+
+ * "git log --graph" draws graphs more compactly by using horizontal lines
+ when able.
+
+ * "git log --decorate" shows shorter refnames by stripping well-known
+ refs/* prefix.
+
+ * "git push $name" honors remote.$name.pushurl if present before
+ using remote.$name.url. In other words, the URL used for fetching
+ and pushing can be different.
+
+ * "git send-email" understands quoted aliases in .mailrc files (might
+ have to be backported to 1.6.3.X).
+
+ * "git send-email" can fetch the sender address from the configuration
+ variable "sendmail.from" (and "sendmail.<identity>.from").
+
+ * "git show-branch" can color its output.
+
+ * "add" and "update" subcommands to "git submodule" learned --reference
+ option to use local clone with references.
+
+ * "git submodule update" learned --rebase option to update checked
+ out submodules by rebasing the local changes.
+
+ * "gitweb" can optionally use gravatar to adorn author/committer names.
+
+(developers)
+
+ * A major part of the "git bisect" wrapper has moved to C.
+
+ * Formatting with the new version of AsciiDoc 8.4.1 is now supported.
+
+Fixes since v1.6.3
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.3.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+Here are fixes that this release has, but have not been backported to
+v1.6.3.X series.
+
+ * "git diff-tree -r -t" used to omit new or removed directories from
+ the output. df533f3 (diff-tree -r -t: include added/removed
+ directories in the output, 2009-06-13) may need to be cherry-picked
+ to backport this fix.
+
+ * The way Git.pm sets up a Repository object was not friendly to callers
+ that chdir around. It now internally records the repository location
+ as an absolute path when autodetected.
+
+ * Removing a section with "git config --remove-section", when its
+ section header has a variable definition on the same line, lost
+ that variable definition.
+
+ * "git rebase -p --onto" used to always leave side branches of a merge
+ intact, even when both branches are subject to rewriting.
+
+ * "git repack" used to faithfully follow grafts and considered true
+ parents recorded in the commit object unreachable from the commit.
+ After such a repacking, you cannot remove grafts without corrupting
+ the repository.
+
+ * "git send-email" did not detect erroneous loops in alias expansion.

+GIT v1.6.5.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5
+------------------
+
+ * An corrupt pack could make codepath to read objects into an
+ infinite loop.
+
+ * Download throughput display was always shown in KiB/s but on fast links
+ it is more appropriate to show it in MiB/s.
+
+ * "git grep -f filename" used uninitialized variable and segfaulted.
+
+ * "git clone -b branch" gave a wrong commit object name to post-checkout
+ hook.
+
+ * "git pull" over http did not work on msys.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.5.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.1
+--------------------
+
+ * Installation of templates triggered a bug in busybox when using tar
+ implementation from it.
+
+ * "git add -i" incorrectly ignored paths that are already in the index
+ if they matched .gitignore patterns.
+
+ * "git describe --always" should have produced some output even there
+ were no tags in the repository, but it didn't.
+
+ * "git ls-files" when showing tracked files incorrectly paid attention
+ to the exclude patterns.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.5.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.2
+--------------------
+
+ * info/grafts file didn't ignore trailing CR at the end of lines.
+
+ * Packages generated on newer FC were unreadable by older versions of
+ RPM as the new default is to use stronger hash.
+
+ * output from "git blame" was unreadable when the file ended in an
+ incomplete line.
+
+ * "git add -i/-p" didn't handle deletion of empty files correctly.
+
+ * "git clone" takes up to two parameters, but did not complain when
+ given more arguments than necessary and silently ignored them.
+
+ * "git cvsimport" did not read files given as command line arguments
+ correctly when it is run from a subdirectory.
+
+ * "git diff --color-words -U0" didn't work correctly.
+
+ * The handling of blank lines at the end of file by "git diff/apply
+ --whitespace" was inconsistent with the other kinds of errors.
+ They are now colored, warned against, and fixed the same way as others.
+
+ * There was no way to allow blank lines at the end of file without
+ allowing extra blanks at the end of lines. You can use blank-at-eof
+ and blank-at-eol whitespace error class to specify them separately.
+ The old trailing-space error class is now a short-hand to set both.
+
+ * "-p" option to "git format-patch" was supposed to suppress diffstat
+ generation, but it was broken since 1.6.1.
+
+ * "git imap-send" did not compile cleanly with newer OpenSSL.
+
+ * "git help -a" outside of a git repository was broken.
+
+ * "git ls-files -i" was supposed to be inverse of "git ls-files" without -i
+ with respect to exclude patterns, but it was broken since 1.6.5.2.
+
+ * "git ls-remote" outside of a git repository over http was broken.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" gave bogus error message when the command word was
+ misspelled.
+
+ * "git receive-pack" that is run in response to "git push" did not run
+ garbage collection nor update-server-info, but in larger hosting sites,
+ these almost always need to be run. To help site administrators, the
+ command now runs "gc --auto" and "u-s-i" by setting receive.autogc
+ and receive.updateserverinfo configuration variables, respectively.
+
+ * Release notes spelled the package name with incorrect capitalization.
+
+ * "gitweb" did not escape non-ascii characters correctly in the URL.
+
+ * "gitweb" showed "patch" link even for merge commits.
+
+ * "gitweb" showed incorrect links for blob line numbers in pathinfo mode.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.5.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.3
+--------------------
+
+ * "git help" (without argument) used to check if you are in a directory
+ under git control. There was no breakage in behaviour per-se, but this
+ was unnecessary.
+
+ * "git prune-packed" gave progress output even when its standard error is
+ not connected to a terminal; this caused cron jobs that run it to
+ produce crufts.
+
+ * "git pack-objects --all-progress" is an option to ask progress output
+ from write-object phase _if_ progress output were to be produced, and
+ shouldn't have forced the progress output.
+
+ * "git apply -p<n> --directory=<elsewhere>" did not work well for a
+ non-default value of n.
+
+ * "git merge foo HEAD" was misparsed as an old-style invocation of the
+ command and produced a confusing error message. As it does not specify
+ any other branch to merge, it shouldn't be mistaken as such. We will
+ remove the old style "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>..." syntax in
+ future versions, but not in this release,
+
+ * "git merge -m <message> <branch>..." added the standard merge message
+ on its own after user-supplied message, which should have overridden the
+ standard one.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.5.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.4
+--------------------
+
+ * Manual pages can be formatted with older xmlto again.
+
+ * GREP_OPTIONS exported from user's environment could have broken
+ our scripted commands.
+
+ * In configuration files, a few variables that name paths can begin with
+ ~/ and ~username/ and they are expanded as expected. This is not a
+ bugfix but 1.6.6 will have this and without backporting users cannot
+ easily use the same ~/.gitconfig across versions.
+
+ * "git diff -B -M" did the same computation to hash lines of contents
+ twice, and held onto memory after it has used the data in it
+ unnecessarily before it freed.
+
+ * "git diff -B" and "git diff --dirstat" was not counting newly added
+ contents correctly.
+
+ * "git format-patch revisions... -- path" issued an incorrect error
+ message that suggested to use "--" on the command line when path
+ does not exist in the current work tree (it is a separate matter if
+ it makes sense to limit format-patch with pathspecs like that
+ without using the --full-diff option).
+
+ * "git grep -F -i StRiNg" did not work as expected.
+
+ * Enumeration of available merge strategies iterated over the list of
+ commands in a wrong way, sometimes producing an incorrect result.
+
+ * "git shortlog" did not honor the "encoding" header embedded in the
+ commit object like "git log" did.
+
+ * Reading progress messages that come from the remote side while running
+ "git pull" is given precedence over reading the actual pack data to
+ prevent garbled progress message on the user's terminal.
+
+ * "git rebase" got confused when the log message began with certain
+ strings that looked like Subject:, Date: or From: header.
+
+ * "git reset" accidentally run in .git/ directory checked out the
+ work tree contents in there.
+
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.5.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.5
+--------------------
+
+ * "git add -p" had a regression since v1.6.5.3 that broke deletion of
+ non-empty files.
+
+ * "git archive -o o.zip -- Makefile" produced an archive in o.zip
+ but in POSIX tar format.
+
+ * Error message given to "git pull --rebase" when the user didn't give
+ enough clue as to what branch to integrate with still talked about
+ "merging with" the branch.
+
+ * Error messages given by "git merge" when the merge resulted in a
+ fast-forward still were in plumbing lingo, even though in v1.6.5
+ we reworded messages in other cases.
+
+ * The post-upload-hook run by upload-pack in response to "git fetch" has
+ been removed, due to security concerns (the hook first appeared in
+ 1.6.5).
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.5.7 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.6
+--------------------
+
+* If a user specifies a color for a <slot> (i.e. a class of things to show
+ in a particular color) that is known only by newer versions of git
+ (e.g. "color.diff.func" was recently added for upcoming 1.6.6 release),
+ an older version of git should just ignore them. Instead we diagnosed
+ it as an error.
+
+* With help.autocorrect set to non-zero value, the logic to guess typos
+ in the subcommand name misfired and ran a random nonsense command.
+
+* If a command is run with an absolute path as a pathspec inside a bare
+ repository, e.g. "rev-list HEAD -- /home", the code tried to run
+ strlen() on NULL, which is the result of get_git_work_tree(), and
+ segfaulted.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.5.8 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5.7
+--------------------
+
+* "git count-objects" did not handle packfiles that are bigger than 4G on
+ platforms with 32-bit off_t.
+
+* "git rebase -i" did not abort cleanly if it failed to launch the editor.
+
+* "git blame" did not work well when commit lacked the author name.
+
+* "git fast-import" choked when handling a tag that points at an object
+ that is not a commit.
+
+* "git reset --hard" did not work correctly when GIT_WORK_TREE environment
+ variable is used to point at the root of the true work tree.
+
+* "git grep" fed a buffer that is not NUL-terminated to underlying
+ regexec().
+
+* "git checkout -m other" while on a branch that does not have any commit
+ segfaulted, instead of failing.
+
+* "git branch -a other" should have diagnosed the command as an error.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are also included.
--- /dev/null
+GIT v1.6.5 Release Notes
+========================
+
+In git 1.7.0, which was planned to be the release after 1.6.5, "git
+push" into a branch that is currently checked out will be refused by
+default.
+
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
+configuration variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving
+repository.
+
+Also, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed in a remote
+repository $there, when $killed branch is the current branch pointed at by
+its HEAD, will be refused by default.
+
+You can choose what should happen upon such a push by setting the
+configuration variable receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving
+repository.
+
+To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
+push running this release will issue a big warning when the
+configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
+
+ http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
+ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
+
+for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
+transition plan.
+
+Updates since v1.6.4
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+ * various updates to gitk, git-svn and gitweb.
+
+(portability)
+
+ * more improvements on mingw port.
+
+ * mingw will also give FRSX as the default value for the LESS
+ environment variable when the user does not have one.
+
+ * initial support to compile git on Windows with MSVC.
+
+(performance)
+
+ * On major platforms, the system can be compiled to use with Linus's
+ block-sha1 implementation of the SHA-1 hash algorithm, which
+ outperforms the default fallback implementation we borrowed from
+ Mozilla.
+
+ * Unnecessary inefficiency in deepening of a shallow repository has
+ been removed.
+
+ * "git clone" does not grab objects that it does not need (i.e.
+ referenced only from refs outside refs/heads and refs/tags
+ hierarchy) anymore.
+
+ * The "git" main binary used to link with libcurl, which then dragged
+ in a large number of external libraries. When using basic plumbing
+ commands in scripts, this unnecessarily slowed things down. We now
+ implement http/https/ftp transfer as a separate executable as we
+ used to.
+
+ * "git clone" run locally hardlinks or copies the files in .git/ to
+ newly created repository. It used to give new mtime to copied files,
+ but this delayed garbage collection to trigger unnecessarily in the
+ cloned repository. We now preserve mtime for these files to avoid
+ this issue.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+ * Human writable date format to various options, e.g. --since=yesterday,
+ master@{2000.09.17}, are taught to infer some omitted input properly.
+
+ * A few programs gave verbose "advice" messages to help uninitiated
+ people when issuing error messages. An infrastructure to allow
+ users to squelch them has been introduced, and a few such messages
+ can be silenced now.
+
+ * refs/replace/ hierarchy is designed to be usable as a replacement
+ of the "grafts" mechanism, with the added advantage that it can be
+ transferred across repositories.
+
+ * "git am" learned to optionally ignore whitespace differences.
+
+ * "git am" handles input e-mail files that has CRLF line endings sensibly.
+
+ * "git am" learned "--scissors" option to allow you to discard early part
+ of an incoming e-mail.
+
+ * "git archive -o output.zip" works without being told what format to
+ use with an explicit "--format=zip".option.
+
+ * "git checkout", "git reset" and "git stash" learned to pick and
+ choose to use selected changes you made, similar to "git add -p".
+
+ * "git clone" learned a "-b" option to pick a HEAD to check out
+ different from the remote's default branch.
+
+ * "git clone" learned --recursive option.
+
+ * "git clone" from a local repository on a different filesystem used to
+ copy individual object files without preserving the old timestamp, giving
+ them extra lifetime in the new repository until they gc'ed.
+
+ * "git commit --dry-run $args" is a new recommended way to ask "what would
+ happen if I try to commit with these arguments."
+
+ * "git commit --dry-run" and "git status" shows conflicted paths in a
+ separate section to make them easier to spot during a merge.
+
+ * "git cvsimport" now supports password-protected pserver access even
+ when the password is not taken from ~/.cvspass file.
+
+ * "git fast-export" learned --no-data option that can be useful when
+ reordering commits and trees without touching the contents of
+ blobs.
+
+ * "git fast-import" has a pair of new front-end in contrib/ area.
+
+ * "git init" learned to mkdir/chdir into a directory when given an
+ extra argument (i.e. "git init this").
+
+ * "git instaweb" optionally can use mongoose as the web server.
+
+ * "git log --decorate" can optionally be told with --decorate=full to
+ give the reference name in full.
+
+ * "git merge" issued an unnecessarily scary message when it detected
+ that the merge may have to touch the path that the user has local
+ uncommitted changes to. The message has been reworded to make it
+ clear that the command aborted, without doing any harm.
+
+ * "git push" can be told to be --quiet.
+
+ * "git push" pays attention to url.$base.pushInsteadOf and uses a URL
+ that is derived from the URL used for fetching.
+
+ * informational output from "git reset" that lists the locally modified
+ paths is made consistent with that of "git checkout $another_branch".
+
+ * "git submodule" learned to give submodule name to scripts run with
+ "foreach" subcommand.
+
+ * various subcommands to "git submodule" learned --recursive option.
+
+ * "git submodule summary" learned --files option to compare the work
+ tree vs the commit bound at submodule path, instead of comparing
+ the index.
+
+ * "git upload-pack", which is the server side support for "git clone" and
+ "git fetch", can call a new post-upload-pack hook for statistics purposes.
+
+(developers)
+
+ * With GIT_TEST_OPTS="--root=/p/a/t/h", tests can be run outside the
+ source directory; using tmpfs may give faster turnaround.
+
+ * With NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER set, DESTDIR= is now honoured, so you can
+ build for one location, and install into another location to tar it
+ up.
+
+Fixes since v1.6.4
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.4.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.6.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.6
+------------------
+
+ * "git blame" did not work well when commit lacked the author name.
+
+ * "git branch -a name" wasn't diagnosed as an error.
+
+ * "git count-objects" did not handle packfiles that are bigger than 4G on
+ platforms with 32-bit off_t.
+
+ * "git checkout -m other" while on a branch that does not have any commit
+ segfaulted, instead of failing.
+
+ * "git fast-import" choked when fed a tag that do not point at a
+ commit.
+
+ * "git grep" finding from work tree files could have fed garbage to
+ the underlying regexec(3).
+
+ * "git grep -L" didn't show empty files (they should never match, and
+ they should always appear in -L output as unmatching).
+
+ * "git rebase -i" did not abort cleanly if it failed to launch the editor.
+
+ * "git reset --hard" did not work correctly when GIT_WORK_TREE environment
+ variable is used to point at the root of the true work tree.
+
+ * http-backend was not listed in the command list in the documentation.
+
+ * Building on FreeBSD (both 7 and 8) needs OLD_ICONV set in the Makefile
+
+ * "git checkout -m some-branch" while on an unborn branch crashed.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.6.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.6.6.1
+--------------------
+
+ * recursive merge didn't correctly diagnose its own programming errors,
+ and instead caused the caller to segfault.
+
+ * The new "smart http" aware clients probed the web servers to see if
+ they support smart http, but did not fall back to dumb http transport
+ correctly with some servers.
+
+ * Time based reflog syntax e.g. "@{yesterday}" didn't diagnose a misspelled
+ time specification and instead assumed "@{now}".
+
+ * "git archive HEAD -- no-such-directory" produced an empty archive
+ without complaining.
+
+ * "git blame -L start,end -- file" misbehaved when given a start that is
+ larger than the number of lines in the file.
+
+ * "git checkout -m" didn't correctly call custom merge backend supplied
+ by the end user.
+
+ * "git config -f <file>" misbehaved when run from a subdirectory.
+
+ * "git cvsserver" didn't like having regex metacharacters (e.g. '+') in
+ CVSROOT environment.
+
+ * "git fast-import" did not correctly handle large blobs that may
+ bust the pack size limit.
+
+ * "git gui" is supposed to work even when launched from inside a .git
+ directory.
+
+ * "git gui" misbehaved when applying a hunk that ends with deletion.
+
+ * "git imap-send" did not honor imap.preformattedHTML as documented.
+
+ * "git log" family incorrectly showed the commit notes unconditionally by
+ mistake, which was especially irritating when running "git log --oneline".
+
+ * "git status" shouldn't require an write access to the repository.
+
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.6.6 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Notes on behaviour change
+-------------------------
+
+ * In this release, "git fsck" defaults to "git fsck --full" and
+ checks packfiles, and because of this it will take much longer to
+ complete than before. If you prefer a quicker check only on loose
+ objects (the old default), you can say "git fsck --no-full". This
+ has been supported by 1.5.4 and newer versions of git, so it is
+ safe to write it in your script even if you use slightly older git
+ on some of your machines.
+
+Preparing yourselves for compatibility issues in 1.7.0
+------------------------------------------------------
+
+In git 1.7.0, which is planned to be the release after 1.6.6, there will
+be a handful of behaviour changes that will break backward compatibility.
+
+These changes were discussed long time ago and existing behaviours have
+been identified as more problematic to the userbase than keeping them for
+the sake of backward compatibility.
+
+When necessary, a transition strategy for existing users has been designed
+not to force them running around setting configuration variables and
+updating their scripts in order to either keep the traditional behaviour
+or adjust to the new behaviour, on the day their sysadmin decides to install
+the new version of git. When we switched from "git-foo" to "git foo" in
+1.6.0, even though the change had been advertised and the transition
+guide had been provided for a very long time, the users procrastinated
+during the entire transition period, and ended up panicking on the day
+their sysadmins updated their git installation. We are trying to avoid
+repeating that unpleasantness in the 1.7.0 release.
+
+For changes decided to be in 1.7.0, commands that will be affected
+have been much louder to strongly discourage such procrastination, and
+they continue to be in this release. If you have been using recent
+versions of git, you would have seen warnings issued when you used
+features whose behaviour will change, with a clear instruction on how
+to keep the existing behaviour if you want to. You hopefully are
+already well prepared.
+
+Of course, we have also been giving "this and that will change in
+1.7.0; prepare yourselves" warnings in the release notes and
+announcement messages for the past few releases. Let's see how well
+users will fare this time.
+
+ * "git push" into a branch that is currently checked out (i.e. pointed by
+ HEAD in a repository that is not bare) will be refused by default.
+
+ Similarly, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed
+ in a remote repository $there, when $killed branch is the current
+ branch pointed at by its HEAD, will be refused by default.
+
+ Setting the configuration variables receive.denyCurrentBranch and
+ receive.denyDeleteCurrent to 'ignore' in the receiving repository
+ can be used to override these safety features. Versions of git
+ since 1.6.2 have issued a loud warning when you tried to do these
+ operations without setting the configuration, so repositories of
+ people who still need to be able to perform such a push should
+ already have been future proofed.
+
+ Please refer to:
+
+ http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare
+ http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
+
+ for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the
+ transition process that already took place so far.
+
+ * "git send-email" will not make deep threads by default when sending a
+ patch series with more than two messages. All messages will be sent
+ as a reply to the first message, i.e. cover letter. Git 1.6.6 (this
+ release) will issue a warning about the upcoming default change, when
+ it uses the traditional "deep threading" behaviour as the built-in
+ default. To squelch the warning but still use the "deep threading"
+ behaviour, give --chain-reply-to option or set sendemail.chainreplyto
+ to true.
+
+ It has been possible to configure send-email to send "shallow thread"
+ by setting sendemail.chainreplyto configuration variable to false.
+ The only thing 1.7.0 release will do is to change the default when
+ you haven't configured that variable.
+
+ * "git status" will not be "git commit --dry-run". This change does not
+ affect you if you run the command without pathspec.
+
+ Nobody sane found the current behaviour of "git status Makefile" useful
+ nor meaningful, and it confused users. "git commit --dry-run" has been
+ provided as a way to get the current behaviour of this command since
+ 1.6.5.
+
+ * "git diff" traditionally treated various "ignore whitespace" options
+ only as a way to filter the patch output. "git diff --exit-code -b"
+ exited with non-zero status even if all changes were about changing the
+ amount of whitespace and nothing else. and "git diff -b" showed the
+ "diff --git" header line for such a change without patch text.
+
+ In 1.7.0, the "ignore whitespaces" will affect the semantics of the
+ diff operation itself. A change that does not affect anything but
+ whitespaces will be reported with zero exit status when run with
+ --exit-code, and there will not be "diff --git" header for such a
+ change.
+
+
+Updates since v1.6.5
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+ * various gitk updates including use of themed widgets under Tk 8.5,
+ Japanese translation, a fix to a bug when running "gui blame" from
+ a subdirectory, etc.
+
+ * various git-gui updates including new translations, wm states fixes,
+ Tk bug workaround after quitting, improved heuristics to trigger gc,
+ etc.
+
+ * various git-svn updates.
+
+ * "git fetch" over http learned a new mode that is different from the
+ traditional "dumb commit walker".
+
+(portability)
+
+ * imap-send can be built on mingw port.
+
+(performance)
+
+ * "git diff -B" has smaller memory footprint.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+ * The object replace mechanism can be bypassed with --no-replace-objects
+ global option given to the "git" program.
+
+ * In configuration files, a few variables that name paths can begin with ~/
+ and ~username/ and they are expanded as expected.
+
+ * "git subcmd -h" now shows short usage help for many more subcommands.
+
+ * "git bisect reset" can reset to an arbitrary commit.
+
+ * "git checkout frotz" when there is no local branch "frotz" but there
+ is only one remote tracking branch "frotz" is taken as a request to
+ start the named branch at the corresponding remote tracking branch.
+
+ * "git commit -c/-C/--amend" can be told with a new "--reset-author" option
+ to ignore authorship information in the commit it is taking the message
+ from.
+
+ * "git describe" can be told to add "-dirty" suffix with "--dirty" option.
+
+ * "git diff" learned --submodule option to show a list of one-line logs
+ instead of differences between the commit object names.
+
+ * "git diff" learned to honor diff.color.func configuration to paint
+ function name hint printed on the hunk header "@@ -j,k +l,m @@" line
+ in the specified color.
+
+ * "git fetch" learned --all and --multiple options, to run fetch from
+ many repositories, and --prune option to remove remote tracking
+ branches that went stale. These make "git remote update" and "git
+ remote prune" less necessary (there is no plan to remove "remote
+ update" nor "remote prune", though).
+
+ * "git fsck" by default checks the packfiles (i.e. "--full" is the
+ default); you can turn it off with "git fsck --no-full".
+
+ * "git grep" can use -F (fixed strings) and -i (ignore case) together.
+
+ * import-tars contributed fast-import frontend learned more types of
+ compressed tarballs.
+
+ * "git instaweb" knows how to talk with mod_cgid to apache2.
+
+ * "git log --decorate" shows the location of HEAD as well.
+
+ * "git log" and "git rev-list" learned to take revs and pathspecs from
+ the standard input with the new "--stdin" option.
+
+ * "--pretty=format" option to "log" family of commands learned:
+
+ . to wrap text with the "%w()" specifier.
+ . to show reflog information with "%g[sdD]" specifier.
+
+ * "git notes" command to annotate existing commits.
+
+ * "git merge" (and "git pull") learned --ff-only option to make it fail
+ if the merge does not result in a fast-forward.
+
+ * "git mergetool" learned to use p4merge.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" learned "reword" that acts like "edit" but immediately
+ starts an editor to tweak the log message without returning control to
+ the shell, which is done by "edit" to give an opportunity to tweak the
+ contents.
+
+ * "git send-email" can be told with "--envelope-sender=auto" to use the
+ same address as "From:" address as the envelope sender address.
+
+ * "git send-email" will issue a warning when it defaults to the
+ --chain-reply-to behaviour without being told by the user and
+ instructs to prepare for the change of the default in 1.7.0 release.
+
+ * In "git submodule add <repository> <path>", <path> is now optional and
+ inferred from <repository> the same way "git clone <repository>" does.
+
+ * "git svn" learned to read SVN 1.5+ and SVK merge tickets.
+
+ * "git svn" learned to recreate empty directories tracked only by SVN.
+
+ * "gitweb" can optionally render its "blame" output incrementally (this
+ requires JavaScript on the client side).
+
+ * Author names shown in gitweb output are links to search commits by the
+ author.
+
+Fixes since v1.6.5
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.5.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0
+------------------
+
+ * In a freshly created repository "rev-parse HEAD^0" complained that
+ it is dangling symref, even though "rev-parse HEAD" didn't.
+
+ * "git show :no-such-name" tried to access the index without bounds
+ check, leading to a potential segfault.
+
+ * Message from "git cherry-pick" was harder to read and use than necessary
+ when it stopped due to conflicting changes.
+
+ * We referred to ".git/refs/" throughout the documentation when we
+ meant to talk about abstract notion of "ref namespace". Because
+ people's repositories often have packed refs these days, this was
+ confusing.
+
+ * "git diff --output=/path/that/cannot/be/written" did not correctly
+ error out.
+
+ * "git grep -e -pattern-that-begin-with-dash paths..." could not be
+ spelled as "git grep -- -pattern-that-begin-with-dash paths..." which
+ would be a GNU way to use "--" as "end of options".
+
+ * "git grep" compiled with threading support tried to access an
+ uninitialized mutex on boxes with a single CPU.
+
+ * "git stash pop -q --index" failed because the unnecessary --index
+ option was propagated to "git stash drop" that is internally run at the
+ end.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0.1
+--------------------
+
+ * GIT_PAGER was not honored consistently by some scripted Porcelains, most
+ notably "git am".
+
+ * updating working tree files after telling git to add them to the
+ index and while it is still working created garbage object files in
+ the repository without diagnosing it as an error.
+
+ * "git bisect -- pathspec..." did not diagnose an error condition properly when
+ the simplification with given pathspec made the history empty.
+
+ * "git rev-list --cherry-pick A...B" now has an obvious optimization when the
+ histories haven't diverged (i.e. when one end is an ancestor of the other).
+
+ * "git diff --quiet -w" did not work as expected.
+
+ * "git fast-import" didn't work with a large input, as it lacked support
+ for producing the pack index in v2 format.
+
+ * "git imap-send" didn't use CRLF line endings over the imap protocol
+ when storing its payload to the draft box, violating RFC 3501.
+
+ * "git log --format='%w(x,y,z)%b'" and friends that rewrap message
+ has been optimized for utf-8 payload.
+
+ * Error messages generated on the receiving end did not come back to "git
+ push".
+
+ * "git status" in 1.7.0 lacked the optimization we used to have in 1.6.X series
+ to speed up scanning of large working tree.
+
+ * "gitweb" did not diagnose parsing errors properly while reading tis configuration
+ file.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0.2
+--------------------
+
+ * Object files are created in a more ACL friendly way in repositories
+ where group permission is ACL controlled.
+
+ * "git add -i" didn't handle a deleted path very well.
+
+ * "git blame" padded line numbers with one extra SP when the total number
+ of lines was one less than multiple of ten due to an off-by-one error.
+
+ * "git fetch --all/--multi" used to discard information for remotes that
+ are fetched earlier.
+
+ * "git log --author=me --grep=it" tried to find commits that have "it"
+ or are written by "me", instead of the ones that have "it" _and_ are
+ written by "me".
+
+ * "git log -g branch" misbehaved when there was no entries in the reflog
+ for the named branch.
+
+ * "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") incorrectly removed initial indent from
+ paragraphs.
+
+ * "git prune" and "git reflog" (hence "git gc" as well) didn't honor
+ an instruction never to expire by setting gc.reflogexpire to never.
+
+ * "git push" misbehaved when branch.<name>.merge was configured without
+ matching branch.<name>.remote.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.4 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0.3
+--------------------
+
+ * Optimized ntohl/htonl on big-endian machines were broken.
+
+ * Color values given to "color.<cmd>.<slot>" configuration can now have
+ more than one attributes (e.g. "bold ul").
+
+ * "git add -u nonexistent-path" did not complain.
+
+ * "git apply --whitespace=fix" didn't work well when an early patch in
+ a patch series adds trailing blank lines and a later one depended on
+ such a block of blank lines at the end.
+
+ * "git fast-export" didn't check error status and stop when marks file
+ cannot be opened.
+
+ * "git format-patch --ignore-if-in-upstream" gave unwarranted errors
+ when the range was empty, instead of silently finishing.
+
+ * "git remote prune" did not detect remote tracking refs that became
+ dangling correctly.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.5 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0.4
+--------------------
+
+ * "git daemon" failed to compile on platforms without sockaddr_storage type.
+
+ * Output from "git rev-list --pretty=oneline" was unparsable when a
+ commit did not have any message, which is abnormal but possible in a
+ repository converted from foreign scm.
+
+ * "git stash show <commit-that-is-not-a-stash>" gave an error message
+ that was not so useful. Reworded the message to "<it> is not a
+ stash".
+
+ * Python scripts in contrib/ area now start with "#!/usr/bin/env python"
+ to honor user's PATH.
+
+ * "git imap-send" used to mistake any line that begins with "From " as a
+ message separator in format-patch output.
+
+ * Smart http server backend failed to report an internal server error and
+ infinitely looped instead after output pipe was closed.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.6 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0.5
+--------------------
+
+ * "git diff --stat" used "int" to count the size of differences,
+ which could result in overflowing.
+
+ * "git rev-list --abbrev-commit" defaulted to 40-byte abbreviations, unlike
+ newer tools in the git toolset.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0.7 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0.6
+--------------------
+
+ * "make NO_CURL=NoThanks install" was broken.
+
+ * An overlong line after ".gitdir: " in a git file caused out of bounds
+ access to an array on the stack.
+
+ * "git config --path conf.var" to attempt to expand a variable conf.var
+ that uses "~/" short-hand segfaulted when $HOME environment variable
+ was not set.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.0 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Notes on behaviour change
+-------------------------
+
+ * "git push" into a branch that is currently checked out (i.e. pointed at by
+ HEAD in a repository that is not bare) is refused by default.
+
+ Similarly, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch $killed
+ in a remote repository $there, when $killed branch is the current
+ branch pointed at by its HEAD, will be refused by default.
+
+ Setting the configuration variables receive.denyCurrentBranch and
+ receive.denyDeleteCurrent to 'ignore' in the receiving repository
+ can be used to override these safety features.
+
+ * "git send-email" does not make deep threads by default when sending a
+ patch series with more than two messages. All messages will be sent
+ as a reply to the first message, i.e. cover letter.
+
+ It has been possible already to configure send-email to send "shallow thread"
+ by setting sendemail.chainreplyto configuration variable to false. The
+ only thing this release does is to change the default when you haven't
+ configured that variable.
+
+ * "git status" is not "git commit --dry-run" anymore. This change does
+ not affect you if you run the command without argument.
+
+ * "git diff" traditionally treated various "ignore whitespace" options
+ only as a way to filter the patch output. "git diff --exit-code -b"
+ exited with non-zero status even if all changes were about changing the
+ amount of whitespace and nothing else; and "git diff -b" showed the
+ "diff --git" header line for such a change without patch text.
+
+ In this release, the "ignore whitespaces" options affect the semantics
+ of the diff operation. A change that does not affect anything but
+ whitespaces is reported with zero exit status when run with
+ --exit-code, and there is no "diff --git" header for such a change.
+
+ * External diff and textconv helpers are now executed using the shell.
+ This makes them consistent with other programs executed by git, and
+ allows you to pass command-line parameters to the helpers. Any helper
+ paths containing spaces or other metacharacters now need to be
+ shell-quoted. The affected helpers are GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF in the
+ environment, and diff.*.command and diff.*.textconv in the config
+ file.
+
+ * The --max-pack-size argument to 'git repack', 'git pack-objects', and
+ 'git fast-import' was assuming the provided size to be expressed in MiB,
+ unlike the corresponding config variable and other similar options accepting
+ a size value. It is now expecting a size expressed in bytes, with a possible
+ unit suffix of 'k', 'm', or 'g'.
+
+Updates since v1.6.6
+--------------------
+
+(subsystems)
+
+ * "git fast-import" updates; adds "option" and "feature" to detect the
+ mismatch between fast-import and the frontends that produce the input
+ stream.
+
+ * "git svn" support of subversion "merge tickets" and miscellaneous fixes.
+
+ * "gitk" and "git gui" translation updates.
+
+ * "gitweb" updates (code clean-up, load checking etc.)
+
+(portability)
+
+ * Some more MSVC portability patches for msysgit port.
+
+ * Minimum Pthreads emulation for msysgit port.
+
+(performance)
+
+ * More performance improvement patches for msysgit port.
+
+(usability, bells and whistles)
+
+ * More commands learned "--quiet" and "--[no-]progress" options.
+
+ * Various commands given by the end user (e.g. diff.type.textconv,
+ and GIT_EDITOR) can be specified with command line arguments. E.g. it
+ is now possible to say "[diff "utf8doc"] textconv = nkf -w".
+
+ * "sparse checkout" feature allows only part of the work tree to be
+ checked out.
+
+ * HTTP transfer can use authentication scheme other than basic
+ (i.e./e.g. digest).
+
+ * Switching from a version of superproject that used to have a submodule
+ to another version of superproject that no longer has it did not remove
+ the submodule directory when it should (namely, when you are not
+ interested in the submodule at all and didn't clone/checkout).
+
+ * A new attribute conflict-marker-size can be used to change the size of
+ the conflict markers from the default 7; this is useful when tracked
+ contents (e.g. git-merge documentation) have strings that resemble the
+ conflict markers.
+
+ * A new syntax "<branch>@{upstream}" can be used on the command line to
+ substitute the name of the "upstream" of the branch. Missing branch
+ defaults to the current branch, so "git fetch && git merge @{upstream}"
+ will be equivalent to "git pull".
+
+ * "git am --resolved" has a synonym "git am --continue".
+
+ * "git branch --set-upstream" can be used to update the (surprise!) upstream,
+ i.e. where the branch is supposed to pull and merge from (or rebase onto).
+
+ * "git checkout A...B" is a way to detach HEAD at the merge base between
+ A and B.
+
+ * "git checkout -m path" to reset the work tree file back into the
+ conflicted state works even when you already ran "git add path" and
+ resolved the conflicts.
+
+ * "git commit --date='<date>'" can be used to override the author date
+ just like "git commit --author='<name> <email>'" can be used to
+ override the author identity.
+
+ * "git commit --no-status" can be used to omit the listing of the index
+ and the work tree status in the editor used to prepare the log message.
+
+ * "git commit" warns a bit more aggressively until you configure user.email,
+ whose default value almost always is not (and fundamentally cannot be)
+ what you want.
+
+ * "git difftool" has been extended to make it easier to integrate it
+ with gitk.
+
+ * "git fetch --all" can now be used in place of "git remote update".
+
+ * "git grep" does not rely on external grep anymore. It can use more than
+ one thread to accelerate the operation.
+
+ * "git grep" learned "--quiet" option.
+
+ * "git log" and friends learned "--glob=heads/*" syntax that is a more
+ flexible way to complement "--branches/--tags/--remotes".
+
+ * "git merge" learned to pass options specific to strategy-backends. E.g.
+
+ - "git merge -Xsubtree=path/to/directory" can be used to tell the subtree
+ strategy how much to shift the trees explicitly.
+
+ - "git merge -Xtheirs" can be used to auto-merge as much as possible,
+ while discarding your own changes and taking merged version in
+ conflicted regions.
+
+ * "git push" learned "git push origin --delete branch", a syntactic sugar
+ for "git push origin :branch".
+
+ * "git push" learned "git push --set-upstream origin forker:forkee" that
+ lets you configure your "forker" branch to later pull from "forkee"
+ branch at "origin".
+
+ * "git rebase --onto A...B" means the history is replayed on top of the
+ merge base between A and B.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" learned new action "fixup" that squashes the change
+ but does not affect existing log message.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" also learned --autosquash option that is useful
+ together with the new "fixup" action.
+
+ * "git remote" learned set-url subcommand that updates (surprise!) url
+ for an existing remote nickname.
+
+ * "git rerere" learned "forget path" subcommand. Together with "git
+ checkout -m path" it will be useful when you recorded a wrong
+ resolution.
+
+ * Use of "git reset --merge" has become easier when resetting away a
+ conflicted mess left in the work tree.
+
+ * "git rerere" had rerere.autoupdate configuration but there was no way
+ to countermand it from the command line; --no-rerere-autoupdate option
+ given to "merge", "revert", etc. fixes this.
+
+ * "git status" learned "-s(hort)" output format.
+
+(developers)
+
+ * The infrastructure to build foreign SCM interface has been updated.
+
+ * Many more commands are now built-in.
+
+ * THREADED_DELTA_SEARCH is no more. If you build with threads, delta
+ compression will always take advantage of it.
+
+Fixes since v1.6.6
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.6.6.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * "git branch -d branch" used to refuse deleting the branch even when
+ the branch is fully merged to its upstream branch if it is not merged
+ to the current branch. It now deletes it in such a case.
+
+ * "filter-branch" command incorrectly said --prune-empty and --filter-commit
+ were incompatible; the latter should be read as --commit-filter.
+
+ * When using "git status" or asking "git diff" to compare the work tree
+ with something, they used to consider that a checked-out submodule with
+ uncommitted changes is not modified; this could cause people to forget
+ committing these changes in the submodule before committing in the
+ superproject. They now consider such a change as a modification and
+ "git diff" will append a "-dirty" to the work tree side when generating
+ patch output or when used with the --submodule option.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.1.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.1
+------------------
+
+ * Authentication over http transport can now be made lazily, in that the
+ request can first go to a URL without username, get a 401 response and
+ then the client will ask for the username to use.
+
+ * We used to mistakenly think "../work" is a subdirectory of the current
+ directory when we are in "../work-xyz".
+
+ * The attribute mechanism now allows an entry that uses an attribute
+ macro that set/unset one attribute, immediately followed by an
+ overriding setting; this makes attribute macros much easier to use.
+
+ * We didn't recognize timezone "Z" as a synonym for "UTC" (75b37e70).
+
+ * In 1.7.0, read-tree and user commands that use the mechanism such as
+ checkout and merge were fixed to handle switching between branches one
+ of which has a file while the other has a directory at the same path
+ correctly even when there are some "confusing" pathnames in them. But
+ the algorithm used for this fix was suboptimal and had a terrible
+ performance degradation especially in larger trees.
+
+ * "git am -3" did not show diagnosis when the patch in the message was corrupt.
+
+ * After "git apply --whitespace=fix" removed trailing blank lines in an
+ patch in a patch series, it failed to apply later patches that depend
+ on the presence of such blank lines.
+
+ * "git bundle --stdin" segfaulted.
+
+ * "git checkout" and "git rebase" overwrote paths that are marked "assume
+ unchanged".
+
+ * "git commit --amend" on a commit with an invalid author-name line that
+ lacks the display name didn't work.
+
+ * "git describe" did not tie-break tags that point at the same commit
+ correctly; newer ones are preferred by paying attention to the
+ tagger date now.
+
+ * "git diff" used to tell underlying xdiff machinery to work very hard to
+ minimize the output, but this often was spending too many extra cycles
+ for very little gain.
+
+ * "git diff --color" did not paint extended diff headers per line
+ (i.e. the coloring escape sequence didn't end at the end of line),
+ which confused "less -R".
+
+ * "git fetch" over HTTP verifies the downloaded packfiles more robustly.
+
+ * The memory usage by "git index-pack" (run during "git fetch" and "git
+ push") got leaner.
+
+ * "GIT_DIR=foo.git git init --bare bar.git" created foo.git instead of bar.git.
+
+ * "git log --abbrev=$num --format='%h' ignored --abbrev=$num.
+
+ * "git ls-files ../out/side/cwd" refused to work.
+
+ * "git merge --log" used to replace the custom message given by "-m" with
+ the shortlog, instead of appending to it.
+
+ * "git notes copy" without any other argument segfaulted.
+
+ * "git pull" accepted "--dry-run", gave it to underlying "git fetch" but
+ ignored the option itself, resulting in a bogus attempt to merge
+ unrelated commit.
+
+ * "git rebase" did not faithfully reproduce a malformed author ident, that
+ is often seen in a repository converted from foreign SCMs.
+
+ * "git reset --hard" started from a wrong directory and a working tree in
+ a nonstandard location is in use got confused.
+
+ * "git send-email" lacked a way to specify the domainname used in the
+ EHLO/HELO exchange, causing rejected connection from picky servers.
+ It learned --smtp-domain option to solve this issue.
+
+ * "git send-email" did not declare a content-transfer-encoding and
+ content-type even when its payload needs to be sent in 8-bit.
+
+ * "git show -C -C" and other corner cases lost diff metainfo output
+ in 1.7.0.
+
+ * "git stash" incorrectly lost paths in the working tree that were
+ previously removed from the index.
+
+ * "git status" stopped refreshing the index by mistake in 1.7.1.
+
+ * "git status" showed excess "hints" even when advice.statusHints is set to false.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.1.2 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.1.1
+--------------------
+
+ * "git commit" did not honor GIT_REFLOG_ACTION environment variable, resulting
+ reflog messages for cherry-pick and revert actions to be recorded as "commit".
+
+ * "git clone/fetch/pull" issued an incorrect error message when a ref and
+ a symref that points to the ref were updated at the same time. This
+ obviously would update them to the same value, and should not result in
+ an error condition.
+
+ * "git diff" inside a tree with many pathnames that have certain
+ characters has become very slow in 1.7.0 by mistake.
+
+ * "git rev-parse --parseopt --stop-at-non-option" did not stop at non option
+ when --keep-dashdash was in effect.
+
+ * An overlong line after ".gitdir: " in a git file caused out of bounds
+ access to an array on the stack.
+
+ * "git config --path conf.var" to attempt to expand a variable conf.var
+ that uses "~/" short-hand segfaulted when $HOME environment variable
+ was not set.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.1 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.7.0
+--------------------
+
+ * Eric Raymond is the maintainer of updated CIAbot scripts, in contrib/.
+
+ * gitk updates.
+
+ * Some commands (e.g. svn and http interfaces) that interactively ask
+ for a password can be told to use an external program given via
+ GIT_ASKPASS.
+
+ * Conflict markers that lead the common ancestor in diff3-style output
+ now have a label, which hopefully would help third-party tools that
+ expect one.
+
+ * Comes with an updated bash-completion script.
+
+ * "git am" learned "--keep-cr" option to handle inputs that are
+ a mixture of changes to files with and without CRLF line endings.
+
+ * "git cvsimport" learned -R option to leave revision mapping between
+ CVS revisions and resulting git commits.
+
+ * "git diff --submodule" notices and describes dirty submodules.
+
+ * "git for-each-ref" learned %(symref), %(symref:short) and %(flag)
+ tokens.
+
+ * "git hash-object --stdin-paths" can take "--no-filters" option now.
+
+ * "git init" can be told to look at init.templatedir configuration
+ variable (obviously that has to come from either /etc/gitconfig or
+ $HOME/.gitconfig).
+
+ * "git grep" learned "--no-index" option, to search inside contents that
+ are not managed by git.
+
+ * "git grep" learned --color=auto/always/never.
+
+ * "git grep" learned to paint filename and line-number in colors.
+
+ * "git log -p --first-parent -m" shows one-parent diff for merge
+ commits, instead of showing combined diff.
+
+ * "git merge-file" learned to use custom conflict marker size and also
+ to use the "union merge" behaviour.
+
+ * "git notes" command has been rewritten in C and learned many commands
+ and features to help you carry notes forward across rebases and amends.
+
+ * "git request-pull" identifies the commit the request is relative to in
+ a more readable way.
+
+ * "git reset" learned "--keep" option that lets you discard commits
+ near the tip while preserving your local changes in a way similar
+ to how "git checkout branch" does.
+
+ * "git status" notices and describes dirty submodules.
+
+ * "git svn" should work better when interacting with repositories
+ with CRLF line endings.
+
+ * "git imap-send" learned to support CRAM-MD5 authentication.

+ better.
+
+ * Various documentation updates.
+
+Fixes since v1.7.0
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.7.0.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * "git add frotz/nitfol" did not complain when the entire frotz/ directory
+ was ignored.
+
+ * "git diff --stat" used "int" to count the size of differences,
+ which could result in overflowing.
+
+ * "git rev-list --pretty=oneline" didn't terminate a record with LF for
+ commits without any message.
+
+ * "git rev-list --abbrev-commit" defaulted to 40-byte abbreviations, unlike
+ newer tools in the git toolset.

+Git v1.7.2.1 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.2
+------------------
+
+ * "git instaweb" wasn't useful when your Apache was installed under a
+ name other than apache2 (e.g. "httpd").
+
+ * Similarly, "git web--browse" (invoked by "git help -w") learned that
+ chrome browser is sometimes called google-chrome.
+
+ * An overlong line after ".gitdir: " in a git file caused out of bounds
+ access to an array on the stack.
+
+ * "git config --path conf.var" to attempt to expand a variable conf.var
+ that uses "~/" short-hand segfaulted when $HOME environment variable
+ was not set.
+
+ * Documentation on Cygwin failed to build.
+
+ * The error message from "git pull blarg" when 'blarg' is an unknown
+ remote name has been improved.
+
+And other minor fixes and documentation updates.

+
+ * Object transfer over smart http transport deadlocked the client when

+
+ * git-gui honors custom textconv filters when showing diff and blame;
+
+ * git diff --relative=subdir (without the necessary trailing /) did not

+
+ * "git diff-files -p --submodule" was recently broken;

+Git v1.7.2.3 Release Notes
+==========================
+
+Fixes since v1.7.2.2
+--------------------
+
+ * When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, we
+ threw an assertion failure.
+
+ * "git archive" gave the full commit ID for "$Format:%h$".
+
+ * "git fetch --tags" did not fetch tags when remote.<nick>.tagopt was set
+ to --no-tags. The command line option now overrides the configuration
+ setting.
+
+ * "git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname:short)'" has been completely
+ broken for a long time.
+
+ * "git gc" incorrectly pruned a rerere record that was created long
+ time ago but still is actively and repeatedly used.
+
+ * "git log --follow -M -p" was seriously broken in 1.7.2, reporting
+ assertion failure.
+
+ * Running "git log" with an incorrect option started pager nevertheless,
+ forcing the user to dismiss it.
+
+ * "git rebase" did not work well when the user has diff.renames
+ configuration variable set.
+
+ * An earlier (and rather old) fix to "git rebase" against a rebased
+ upstream broke a more normal, non rebased upstream case rather badly,
+ attempting to re-apply patches that are already accepted upstream.
+
+ * "git submodule sync" forgot to update the superproject's config file
+ when submodule URL changed.
+
+ * "git pack-refs --all --prune" did not remove a directory that has
+ become empty.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.2 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.7.1
+--------------------
+
+ * core.eol configuration and text/eol attributes are the new way to control
+ the end of line conventions for files in the working tree.
+
+ * core.autocrlf has been made safer - it will now only handle line
+ endings for new files and files that are LF-only in the
+ repository. To normalize content that has been checked in with
+ CRLF, use the new eol/text attributes.
+
+ * The whitespace rules used in "git apply --whitespace" and "git diff"
+ gained a new member in the family (tab-in-indent) to help projects with
+ policy to indent only with spaces.
+
+ * When working from a subdirectory, by default, git does not look for its
+ metadirectory ".git" across filesystems, primarily to help people who
+ have invocations of git in their custom PS1 prompts, as being outside
+ of a git repository would look for ".git" all the way up to the root
+ directory, and NFS mounts are often slow. DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM
+ environment variable can be used to tell git not to stop at a
+ filesystem boundary.
+
+ * Usage help messages generated by parse-options library (i.e. most
+ of the Porcelain commands) are sent to the standard output now.
+
+ * ':/<string>' notation to look for a commit now takes regular expression
+ and it is not anchored at the beginning of the commit log message
+ anymore (this is a backward incompatible change).
+
+ * "git" wrapper learned "-c name=value" option to override configuration
+ variable from the command line.
+
+ * Improved portability for various platforms including older SunOS,
+ HP-UX 10/11, AIX, Tru64, etc. and platforms with Python 2.4.
+
+ * The message from "git am -3" has been improved when conflict
+ resolution ended up making the patch a no-op.
+
+ * "git blame" applies the textconv filter to the contents it works
+ on, when available.
+
+ * "git checkout --orphan newbranch" is similar to "-b newbranch" but
+ prepares to create a root commit that is not connected to any existing
+ commit.
+
+ * "git cherry-pick" learned to pick a range of commits
+ (e.g. "cherry-pick A..B" and "cherry-pick --stdin"), so did "git
+ revert"; these do not support the nicer sequencing control "rebase
+ [-i]" has, though.
+
+ * "git cherry-pick" and "git revert" learned --strategy option to specify
+ the merge strategy to be used when performing three-way merges.
+
+ * "git cvsserver" can be told to use pserver; its password file can be
+ stored outside the repository.
+
+ * The output from the textconv filter used by "git diff" can be cached to
+ speed up their reuse.
+
+ * "git diff --word-diff=<mode>" extends the existing "--color-words"
+ option, making it more useful in color-challenged environments.
+
+ * The regexp to detect function headers used by "git diff" for PHP has
+ been enhanced for visibility modifiers (public, protected, etc.) to
+ better support PHP5.
+
+ * "diff.noprefix" configuration variable can be used to implicitly
+ ask for "diff --no-prefix" behaviour.
+
+ * "git for-each-ref" learned "%(objectname:short)" that gives the object
+ name abbreviated.
+
+ * "git format-patch" learned --signature option and format.signature
+ configuration variable to customize the e-mail signature used in the
+ output.
+
+ * Various options to "git grep" (e.g. --count, --name-only) work better
+ with binary files.
+
+ * "git grep" learned "-Ovi" to open the files with hits in your editor.
+
+ * "git help -w" learned "chrome" and "chromium" browsers.
+
+ * "git log --decorate" shows commit decorations in various colours.
+
+ * "git log --follow <path>" follows across copies (it used to only follow
+ renames). This may make the processing more expensive.
+
+ * "git log --pretty=format:<template>" specifier learned "% <something>"
+ magic that inserts a space only when %<something> expands to a
+ non-empty string; this is similar to "%+<something>" magic, but is
+ useful in a context to generate a single line output.
+
+ * "git notes prune" learned "-n" (dry-run) and "-v" options, similar to
+ what "git prune" has.
+
+ * "git patch-id" can be fed a mbox without getting confused by the
+ signature line in the format-patch output.
+
+ * "git remote" learned "set-branches" subcommand.
+
+ * "git rev-list A..B" learned --ancestry-path option to further limit
+ the result to the commits that are on the ancestry chain between A and
+ B (i.e. commits that are not descendants of A are excluded).
+
+ * "git show -5" is equivalent to "git show --do-walk 5"; this is similar
+ to the update to make "git show master..next" walk the history,
+ introduced in 1.6.4.
+
+ * "git status [-s] --ignored" can be used to list ignored paths.
+
+ * "git status -s -b" shows the current branch in the output.
+
+ * "git status" learned "--ignore-submodules" option.
+
+ * Various "gitweb" enhancements and clean-ups, including syntax
+ highlighting, "plackup" support for instaweb, .fcgi suffix to run
+ it as FastCGI script, etc.
+
+ * The test harness has been updated to produce TAP-friendly output.
+
+ * Many documentation improvement patches are also included.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.7.1
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.7.1.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * We didn't URL decode "file:///path/to/repo" correctly when path/to/repo
+ had percent-encoded characters (638794c, 9d2e942, ce83eda, 3c73a1d).
+
+ * "git clone" did not configure remote.origin.url correctly for bare
+ clones (df61c889).
+
+ * "git diff --graph" works better with "--color-words" and other options
+ (81fa024..4297c0a).
+
+ * "git diff" could show ambiguous abbreviation of blob object names on
+ its "index" line (3e5a188).
+
+ * "git reset --hard" started from a wrong directory and a working tree in
+ a nonstandard location is in use got confused (560fb6a1).
+
+ * "git read-tree -m A B" used to switch to branch B while retaining
+ local changes added an incorrect cache-tree information (b1f47514).

+Git v1.7.3 Release Notes
+========================
+
+Updates since v1.7.2
+--------------------
+
+ * git-gui, now at version 0.13.0, got various updates and a new
+ maintainer, Pat Thoyts.
+
+ * Gitweb allows its configuration to change per each request; it used to
+ read the configuration once upon startup.
+
+ * When git finds a corrupt object, it now reports the file that contains
+ it.
+
+ * "git checkout -B <it>" is a shorter way to say "git branch -f <it>"
+ followed by "git checkout <it>".
+
+ * When "git checkout" or "git merge" refuse to proceed in order to
+ protect local modification to your working tree, they used to stop
+ after showing just one path that might be lost. They now show all,
+ in a format that is easier to read.
+
+ * "git clean" learned "-e" ("--exclude") option.
+
+ * Hunk headers produced for C# files by "git diff" and friends show more
+ relevant context than before.
+
+ * diff.ignoresubmodules configuration variable can be used to squelch the
+ differences in submodules reported when running commands (e.g. "diff",
+ "status", etc.) at the superproject level.
+
+ * http.useragent configuration can be used to lie who you are to your
+ restrictive firewall.
+
+ * "git rebase --strategy <s>" learned "-X" option to pass extra options
+ that are understood by the chosen merge strategy.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" learned "exec" that you can insert into the insn sheet
+ to run a command between its steps.
+
+ * "git rebase" between branches that have many binary changes that do
+ not conflict should be faster.
+
+ * "git rebase -i" peeks into rebase.autosquash configuration and acts as
+ if you gave --autosquash from the command line.
+
+
+Also contains various documentation updates.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.7.2
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.7.2.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * "git merge -s recursive" (which is the default) did not handle cases
+ where a directory becomes a file (or vice versa) very well.
+
+ * "git fetch" and friends were accidentally broken for url with "+" in
+ its path, e.g. "git://git.gnome.org/gtk+".
+
+ * "git fetch $url" (i.e. without refspecs) was broken for quite some
+ time, if the current branch happen to be tracking some remote.
+
+ * "git ls-tree dir dirgarbage", when "dir" was a directory,
+ incorrectly recursed into "dir".
+
+ * "git note remove" created unnecessary extra commit when named object
+ did not have any note to begin with.
+
+ * "git rebase" did not work well if you had diff.noprefix configured.
+
+ * "git -c foo=bar subcmd" did not work well for subcmd that is not
+ implemented as a built-in command.
--- /dev/null
+Git v1.7.4 Release Notes (draft)
+================================
+
+Updates since v1.7.3
+--------------------
+
+ * The option parsers of various commands that create new branch (or
+ rename existing ones to a new name) were too loose and users were
+ allowed to call a branch with a name that begins with a dash by
+ creative abuse of their command line options, which only lead to
+ burn themselves. The name of a branch cannot begin with a dash
+ now.
+
+ * System-wide fallback default attributes can be stored in
+ /etc/gitattributes; core.attributesfile configuration variable can
+ be used to customize the path to this file.
+
+ * "git diff" and "git grep" learned how functions and subroutines
+ in Fortran look like.
+
+ * "git log -G<pattern>" limits the output to commits whose change has
+ added or deleted lines that match the given pattern.
+
+ * "git read-tree" with no argument as a way to empty the index is
+ deprecated; we might want to remove it in the future. Users can
+ use the new --empty option to be more explicit instead.
+
+ * "git merge --log" used to limit the resulting merge log to 20
+ entries; this is now customizable by giving e.g. "--log=47".
+
+ * you can extend "git shell", which is often used on boxes that allow
+ git-only login over ssh as login shell, with custom set of
+ commands.
+
+Also contains various documentation updates.

+Fixes since v1.7.3
+------------------
+
+All of the fixes in v1.7.3.X maintenance series are included in this
+release, unless otherwise noted.
+
+ * "git log --author=me --author=her" did not find commits written by
+ me or by her; instead it looked for commits written by me and by
+ her, which is impossible.

DESCRIPTION
-----------
'git daemon' will refuse to start when this option is enabled and no
whitelist is specified.
---base-path=path::
+--base-path=<path>::
Remap all the path requests as relative to the given path.
This is sort of "GIT root" - if you run 'git daemon' with
'--base-path=/srv/git' on example.com, then if you later try to pull
This is useful for switching to --base-path usage, while still
allowing the old paths.
---interpolated-path=pathtemplate::
+--interpolated-path=<pathtemplate>::
To support virtual hosting, an interpolated path template can be
used to dynamically construct alternate paths. The template
supports %H for the target hostname as supplied by the client but
Have the server run as an inetd service. Implies --syslog.
Incompatible with --port, --listen, --user and --group options.
---listen=host_or_ipaddr::
+--listen=<host_or_ipaddr>::
Listen on a specific IP address or hostname. IP addresses can
be either an IPv4 address or an IPv6 address if supported. If IPv6
is not supported, then --listen=hostname is also not supported and
--listen must be given an IPv4 address.
Incompatible with '--inetd' option.
---port=n::
+--port=<n>::
Listen on an alternative port. Incompatible with '--inetd' option.
---init-timeout=n::
+--init-timeout=<n>::
Timeout between the moment the connection is established and the
client request is received (typically a rather low value, since
that should be basically immediate).
---timeout=n::
+--timeout=<n>::
Timeout for specific client sub-requests. This includes the time
it takes for the server to process the sub-request and the time spent
waiting for the next client's request.
---max-connections=n::
+--max-connections=<n>::
Maximum number of concurrent clients, defaults to 32. Set it to
zero for no limit.
--verbose, thus by default only error conditions will be logged.
--user-path::
---user-path=path::
+--user-path=<path>::
Allow {tilde}user notation to be used in requests. When
specified with no parameter, requests to
git://host/{tilde}alice/foo is taken as a request to access
--detach::
Detach from the shell. Implies --syslog.
---pid-file=file::
+--pid-file=<file>::
Save the process id in 'file'. Ignored when the daemon
is run under `--inetd`.
---user=user::
---group=group::
+--user=<user>::
+--group=<group>::
Change daemon's uid and gid before entering the service loop.
When only `--user` is given without `--group`, the
primary group ID for the user is used. The values of
the facility of inet daemon to achieve the same before spawning
'git daemon' if needed.
---enable=service::
---disable=service::
+--enable=<service>::
+--disable=<service>::
Enable/disable the service site-wide per default. Note
that a service disabled site-wide can still be enabled
per repository if it is marked overridable and the
repository enables the service with a configuration
item.
---allow-override=service::
---forbid-override=service::
+--allow-override=<service>::
+--forbid-override=<service>::
Allow/forbid overriding the site-wide default with per
repository configuration. By default, all the services
are overridable.

DESCRIPTION
-----------
In the first and second form, copy entries from <commit> to the index.
-In the third form, set the current branch to <commit>, optionally
-modifying index and worktree to match. The <commit> defaults to HEAD
+In the third form, set the current branch head (HEAD) to <commit>, optionally
+modifying index and working tree to match. The <commit> defaults to HEAD
in all forms.
'git reset' [-q] [<commit>] [--] <paths>...::
This form resets the index entries for all <paths> to their
- state at the <commit>. (It does not affect the worktree, nor
+ state at <commit>. (It does not affect the working tree, nor
the current branch.)
+
This means that `git reset <paths>` is the opposite of `git add
<paths>`.
++
+After running `git reset <paths>` to update the index entry, you can
+use linkgit:git-checkout[1] to check the contents out of the index to
+the working tree.
+Alternatively, using linkgit:git-checkout[1] and specifying a commit, you
+can copy the contents of a path out of a commit to the index and to the
+working tree in one go.
'git reset' --patch|-p [<commit>] [--] [<paths>...]::
Interactively select hunks in the difference between the index
linkgit:git-add[1]).
'git reset' [--<mode>] [<commit>]::
- This form points the current branch to <commit> and then
- updates index and working tree according to <mode>, which must
- be one of the following:
+ This form resets the current branch head to <commit> and
+ possibly updates the index (resetting it to the tree of <commit>) and
+ the working tree depending on <mode>, which

--soft::
- Does not touch the index file nor the working tree at all, but
- requires them to be in a good order. This leaves all your changed
- files "Changes to be committed", as 'git status' would
- put it.
+ Does not touch the index file nor the working tree at all (but
+ resets the head to <commit>, just like all modes do). This leaves
+ all your changed files "Changes to be committed", as 'git status'
+ would put it.
--mixed::
Resets the index but not the working tree (i.e., the changed files

--hard::
- Matches the working tree and index to that of the tree being
- switched to. Any changes to tracked files in the working tree

+ Resets the index and working tree. Any changes to tracked files in the
+ working tree since <commit> are discarded.
--merge::
- Resets the index to match the tree recorded by the named commit,
- and updates the files that are different between the named commit
- and the current commit in the working tree.
+ Resets the index and updates the files in the working tree that are
+ different between <commit> and HEAD, but keeps those which are
+ different between the index and working tree (i.e. which have changes
+ which have not been added).
+ If a file that is different between <commit> and the index has unstaged
+ changes, reset is aborted.
++
+In other words, --merge does something like a 'git read-tree -u -m <commit>',
+but carries forward unmerged index entries.
--keep::
- Reset the index to the given commit, keeping local changes in
- the working tree since the current commit, while updating
- working tree files without local changes to what appears in
- the given commit. If a file that is different between the
- current commit and the given commit has local changes, reset
- is aborted.

+ reset is aborted.
++
+In other words, --keep does a 2-way merge between <commit> and HEAD followed by
+'git reset --mixed <commit>'.

If you want to undo a commit other than the latest on a branch,
brings your index file and the working tree back to that state,
and resets the tip of the branch to that commit.

-git-shell - Restricted login shell for GIT-only SSH access
+git-shell - Restricted login shell for Git-only SSH access
SYNOPSIS
--------
-'$(git --exec-path)/git-shell' -c <command> <argument>
+'git shell' [-c <command> <argument>]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
-This is meant to be used as a login shell for SSH accounts you want
-to restrict to GIT pull/push access only. It permits execution only
-of server-side GIT commands implementing the pull/push functionality.
-The commands can be executed only by the '-c' option; the shell is not
-interactive.
-
-Currently, only four commands are permitted to be called, 'git-receive-pack'
-'git-upload-pack' and 'git-upload-archive' with a single required argument, or
-'cvs server' (to invoke 'git-cvsserver').
+
+A login shell for SSH accounts to provide restricted Git access. When
+'-c' is given, the program executes <command> non-interactively;
+<command> can be one of 'git receive-pack', 'git upload-pack', 'git
+upload-archive', 'cvs server', or a command in COMMAND_DIR. The shell
+is started in interactive mode when no arguments are given; in this
+case, COMMAND_DIR must exist, and any of the executables in it can be
+invoked.
+
+'cvs server' is a special command which executes git-cvsserver.
+
+COMMAND_DIR is the path "$HOME/git-shell-commands". The user must have
+read and execute permissions to the directory in order to execute the
+programs in it. The programs are executed with a cwd of $HOME, and
+<argument> is parsed as a command-line string.

-If you lose your .git/svn/git-svn/.rev_db file, 'git svn' will not
-be able to rebuild it and you won't be able to fetch again,

+This option can only be used for one-shot imports as 'git svn'
+will not be able to fetch again without metadata. Additionally,
+if you lose your .git/svn/**/.rev_map.* files, 'git svn' will not
+be able to rebuild them.
+
The 'git svn log' command will not work on repositories using
this, either. Using this conflicts with the 'useSvmProps'
option for (hopefully) obvious reasons.
++
+This option is NOT recommended as it makes it difficult to track down
+old references to SVN revision numbers in existing documentation, bug
+reports and archives. If you plan to eventually migrate from SVN to git
+and are certain about dropping SVN history, consider
+linkgit:git-filter-branch[1] instead. filter-branch also allows
+reformating of metadata for ease-of-reading and rewriting authorship
+info for non-"svn.authorsFile" users.

+
+Provided commands:

+help: Prints out the names of available commands. When run
+interactively, git-shell will automatically run 'help' on startup,

+
+list: Displays any bare repository whose name ends with ".git" under
