+Git v1.7.10 Release Notes
+=========================
+
+Updates since v1.7.9
+--------------------
+
+UI, Workflows & Features
+
+ * Improved handling of views, labels and branches in git-p4 (in contrib).
+
+ * Updated command line arguments completion script for zsh (in contrib).
+
+ * "vcs-svn"/"svn-fe" learned to read dumps with svn-deltas and
+ support incremental imports.
+
+ * "git am" learned to pass "-b" option to underlying "git mailinfo", so
+ that bracketed string other than "PATCH" at the beginning can be kept.
+
+ * "git clone" learned "--single-branch" option to limit cloning to a
+ single branch (surprise!).
+
+ * "git clone" learned to detach the HEAD in the resulting repository
+ when the source repository's HEAD does not point to a branch.
+
+ * The commands in the "git diff" family and "git apply --stat" that
+ count the number of files changed and the number of lines
+ inserted/deleted have been updated to match the output from
+ "diffstat". This also opens the door to i18n this line.
+
+ * When showing a patch while ignoring whitespace changes, the context
+ lines are taken from the postimage, in order to make it easier to
+ view the output.
+
+ * "git merge" in an interactive session learned to spawn the editor
+ by default to let the user edit the auto-generated merge message,
+ to encourage people to explain their merges better. Legacy scripts
+ can export MERGE_AUTOEDIT=no to retain the historical behaviour.
+
+ * "gitweb" allows intermediate entries in the directory hierarchy
+ that leads to a projects to be clicked, which in turn shows the
+ list of projects inside that directory.
+
+Performance
+
+ * During "git upload-pack" in respose to "git fetch", unnecessary calls
+ to parse_object() have been eliminated, to help performance in
+ repositories with excessive number of refs.
+
+Internal Implementation
+
+ * Recursive call chains in "git index-pack" to deal with long delta
+ chains have been flattened, to reduce the stack footprint.
+
+ * Use of add_extra_ref() API is slowly getting removed, to make it
+ possible to cleanly restructure the overall refs API.
+
+ * The test suite supports the new "test_pause" helper function.
+
+ * t/Makefile is adjusted to prevent newer versions of GNU make from
+ running tests in seemingly random order.
+
+Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
+
+
+Fixes since v1.7.9
+------------------
+
+Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v1.7.9 in the maintenance
+releases are contained in this release (see release notes to them for
+details).
+
+ * "git merge --no-edit $tag" failed to honor the --no-edit option.
+ (merge 3adab6f jn/merge-no-edit-fix later to maint).
+
+ * The error message emitted when we see an empty loose object was
+ not phrased correctly.
+ (merge 33e42de mm/empty-loose-error-message later to maint).
+
+ * Many small corner case bugs on "git tag -n" was corrected.
+ (merge 31fd8d7 jk/maint-tag-show-fixes later to maint).
+
+ * "git commit" refused to create a commit when entries added with
+ "add -N" remained in the index, without telling Git what their content
+ in the next commit should be. We should have created the commit without
+ these paths.
+ (merge 3f6d56d jc/maint-commit-ignore-i-t-a later to maint).
+
+ * Search box in "gitweb" did not accept non-ASCII characters correctly.
+ (merge 84d9e2d jn/gitweb-search-utf-8 later to maint).
+
+ * The code to ask for password did not fall back to the terminal
+ input when GIT_ASKPASS is set but does not work (e.g. lack of X
+ with GUI askpass helper).
+ (merge 84d7273 jk/prompt-fallback-to-tty later to maint).
+
+ * map_user() was not rewriting its output correctly, which resulted
+ in the user visible symptom that "git blame -e" sometimes showed
+ excess '>' at the end of email addresses.
+ (merge f026358 jc/maint-mailmap-output later to maint).
+
+ * "checkout -b" did not allow switching out of an unborn branch.
++ (merge abe1998 jc/checkout-out-of-unborn later to maint).

+ - test_pause
+
+ This command is useful for writing and debugging tests and must be
+ removed before submitting. It halts the execution of the test and
+ spawns a shell in the trash directory. Exit the shell to continue
+ the test. Example:
+
+ test_expect_success 'test' '
+ git do-something >actual &&
+ test_pause &&
+ test_cmp expected actual
+ '
+
Prerequisites
-------------
That'll generate a detailed cover report in the "cover_db_html"
directory, which you can then copy to a webserver, or inspect locally
in a browser.
-
- Smoke testing
- -------------
-
- The Git test suite has support for smoke testing. Smoke testing is
- when you submit the results of a test run to a central server for
- analysis and aggregation.
-
- Running a smoke tester is an easy and valuable way of contributing to
- Git development, particularly if you have access to an uncommon OS on
- obscure hardware.
-
- After building Git you can generate a smoke report like this in the
- "t" directory:
-
- make clean smoke
-
- You can also pass arguments via the environment. This should make it
- faster:
-
- GIT_TEST_OPTS='--root=/dev/shm' TEST_JOBS=10 make clean smoke
-
- The "smoke" target will run the Git test suite with Perl's
- "TAP::Harness" module, and package up the results in a .tar.gz archive
- with "TAP::Harness::Archive". The former is included with Perl v5.10.1
- or later, but you'll need to install the latter from the CPAN. See the
- "Test coverage" section above for how you might do that.
-
- Once the "smoke" target finishes you'll see a message like this:
-
- TAP Archive created at <path to git>/t/test-results/git-smoke.tar.gz
-
- To upload the smoke report you need to have curl(1) installed, then
- do:
-
- make smoke_report
-
- To upload the report anonymously. Hopefully that'll return something
- like "Reported #7 added.".
-
- If you're going to be uploading reports frequently please request a
- user account by E-Mailing gitsmoke@v.nix.is. Once you have a username
- and password you'll be able to do:
-
- SMOKE_USERNAME=<username> SMOKE_PASSWORD=<password> make smoke_report
-
- You can also add an additional comment to attach to the report, and/or
- a comma separated list of tags:
-
- SMOKE_USERNAME=<username> SMOKE_PASSWORD=<password> \
- SMOKE_COMMENT=<comment> SMOKE_TAGS=<tags> \
- make smoke_report
-
- Once the report is uploaded it'll be made available at
- http://smoke.git.nix.is, here's an overview of Recent Smoke Reports
- for Git:
-
- http://smoke.git.nix.is/app/projects/smoke_reports/1
-
- The reports will also be mirrored to GitHub every few hours:
-
- http://github.com/gitsmoke/smoke-reports
-
- The Smolder SQLite database is also mirrored and made available for
- download:
-
- http://github.com/gitsmoke/smoke-database
-
- Note that the database includes hashed (with crypt()) user passwords
- and E-Mail addresses. Don't use a valuable password for the smoke
- service if you have an account, or an E-Mail address you don't want to
- be publicly known. The user accounts are just meant to be convenient
- labels, they're not meant to be secure.
