| Git 1.8.1.1 Release Notes |
| ========================= |
| |
| Fixes since v1.8.1 |
| ------------------ |
| |
| * After failing to create a temporary file using mkstemp(), failing |
| pathname was not reported correctly on some platforms. |
| |
| * http transport was wrong to ask for the username when the |
| authentication is done by certificate identity. |
| |
| * After "git add -N" and then writing a tree object out of the |
| index, the cache-tree data structure got corrupted. |
| |
| * "git pack-refs" that ran in parallel to another process that |
| created new refs had a race that can lose new ones. |
| |
| * When a line to be wrapped has a solid run of non space characters |
| whose length exactly is the wrap width, "git shortlog -w" failed |
| to add a newline after such a line. |
| |
| * "gitweb", when sorting by age to show repositories with new |
| activities first, used to sort repositories with absolutely |
| nothing in it early, which was not very useful. |
| |
| * Some scripted programs written in Python did not get updated when |
| PYTHON_PATH changed. |
| |
| * We have been carrying a translated and long-unmaintained copy of an |
| old version of the tutorial; removed. |
| |
| * Portability issues in many self-test scripts have been addressed. |
| |
| |
| Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates. |
