| 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. |
