| 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. |
