| Git v2.0.2 Release Notes |
| ======================== |
| |
| * Documentation for "git submodule sync" forgot to say that the subcommand |
| can take the "--recursive" option. |
| |
| * Mishandling of patterns in .gitignore that has trailing SPs quoted |
| with backslashes (e.g. ones that end with "\ ") have been |
| corrected. |
| |
| * Recent updates to "git repack" started to duplicate objects that |
| are in packfiles marked with .keep flag into the new packfile by |
| mistake. |
| |
| * "git clone -b brefs/tags/bar" would have mistakenly thought we were |
| following a single tag, even though it was a name of the branch, |
| because it incorrectly used strstr(). |
| |
| * "%G" (nothing after G) is an invalid pretty format specifier, but |
| the parser did not notice it as garbage. |
| |
| * Code to avoid adding the same alternate object store twice was |
| subtly broken for a long time, but nobody seems to have noticed. |
| |
| * A handful of code paths had to read the commit object more than |
| once when showing header fields that are usually not parsed. The |
| internal data structure to keep track of the contents of the commit |
| object has been updated to reduce the need for this double-reading, |
| and to allow the caller find the length of the object. |
| |
| * During "git rebase --merge", a conflicted patch could not be |
| skipped with "--skip" if the next one also conflicted. |
