| Git v1.7.10.3 Release Notes | |
| =========================== | |
| Fixes since v1.7.10.2 | |
| --------------------- | |
| * The message file for German translation has been updated a bit. | |
| * Running "git checkout" on an unborn branch used to corrupt HEAD. | |
| * When checking out another commit from an already detached state, we | |
| used to report all commits that are not reachable from any of the | |
| refs as lossage, but some of them might be reachable from the new | |
| HEAD, and there is no need to warn about them. | |
| * Some time ago, "git clone" lost the progress output for its | |
| "checkout" phase; when run without any "--quiet" option, it should | |
| give progress to the lengthy operation. | |
| * The directory path used in "git diff --no-index", when it recurses | |
| down, was broken with a recent update after v1.7.10.1 release. | |
| * "log -z --pretty=tformat:..." did not terminate each record with | |
| NUL. The fix is not entirely correct when the output also asks for | |
| --patch and/or --stat, though. | |
| * The DWIM behaviour for "log --pretty=format:%gd -g" was somewhat | |
| broken and gave undue precedence to configured log.date, causing | |
| "git stash list" to show "stash@{time stamp string}". | |
| * "git status --porcelain" ignored "--branch" option by mistake. The | |
| output for "git status --branch -z" was also incorrect and did not | |
| terminate the record for the current branch name with NUL as asked. | |
| * When a submodule repository uses alternate object store mechanism, | |
| some commands that were started from the superproject did not | |
| notice it and failed with "No such object" errors. The subcommands | |
| of "git submodule" command that recursed into the submodule in a | |
| separate process were OK; only the ones that cheated and peeked | |
| directly into the submodule's repository from the primary process | |
| were affected. | |
| Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates. |
