| Git v1.8.0.2 Release Notes | |
| ========================== | |
| Fixes since v1.8.0.1 | |
| -------------------- | |
| * Various codepaths have workaround for a common misconfiguration to | |
| spell "UTF-8" as "utf8", but it was not used uniformly. Most | |
| notably, mailinfo (which is used by "git am") lacked this support. | |
| * We failed to mention a file without any content change but whose | |
| permission bit was modified, or (worse yet) a new file without any | |
| content in the "git diff --stat" output. | |
| * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for binary contents, the total | |
| number of added and removed lines at the bottom was computed | |
| incorrectly. | |
| * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for unmerged paths, the total | |
| number of affected files at the bottom of the "diff --stat" output | |
| was computed incorrectly. | |
| * "diff --shortstat" miscounted the total number of affected files | |
| when there were unmerged paths. | |
| * "git p4" used to try expanding malformed "$keyword$" that spans | |
| across multiple lines. | |
| * "git update-ref -d --deref SYM" to delete a ref through a symbolic | |
| ref that points to it did not remove it correctly. | |
| * Syntax highlighting in "gitweb" was not quite working. | |
| Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates. |
