| GIT v1.6.2.4 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.6.2.3 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * The configuration parser had a buffer overflow while parsing an overlong |
| value. |
| |
| * pruning reflog entries that are unreachable from the tip of the ref |
| during "git reflog prune" (hence "git gc") was very inefficient. |
| |
| * "git-add -p" lacked a way to say "q"uit to refuse staging any hunks for |
| the remaining paths. You had to say "d" and then ^C. |
| |
| * "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at |
| the named path; it now does. |
| |
| * "git-fast-export" choked when seeing a tag that does not point at commit. |
| |
| * "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via |
| the --template= option. |
| |
| * "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when |
| deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the |
| individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match |
| "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/", |
| and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't). |
| |
| * "git-merge-recursive" was broken when a submodule entry was involved in |
| a criss-cross merge situation. |
| |
| Many small documentation updates are included as well. |
