| Git v1.7.11.4 Release Notes | |
| =========================== | |
| Fixes since v1.7.11.3 | |
| --------------------- | |
| * "$GIT_DIR/COMMIT_EDITMSG" file that is used to hold the commit log | |
| message user edits was not documented. | |
| * The advise() function did not use varargs correctly to format | |
| its message. | |
| * When "git am" failed, old timers knew to check .git/rebase-apply/patch | |
| to see what went wrong, but we never told the users about it. | |
| * "git commit-tree" learned a more natural "-p <parent> <tree>" order | |
| of arguments long time ago, but recently forgot it by mistake. | |
| * "git diff --no-ext-diff" did not output anything for a typechange | |
| filepair when GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF is in effect. | |
| * In 1.7.9 era, we taught "git rebase" about the raw timestamp format | |
| but we did not teach the same trick to "filter-branch", which rolled | |
| a similar logic on its own. | |
| * When "git submodule add" clones a submodule repository, it can get | |
| confused where to store the resulting submodule repository in the | |
| superproject's .git/ directory when there is a symbolic link in the | |
| path to the current directory. | |
| Also contains minor typofixes and documentation updates. |
