| GIT v1.5.1.6 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.5.1.4 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * Bugfixes |
| |
| - git-send-email did not understand aliases file for mutt, which |
| allows leading whitespaces. |
| |
| - git-format-patch emitted Content-Type and Content-Transfer-Encoding |
| headers for non ASCII contents, but failed to add MIME-Version. |
| |
| - git-name-rev had a buffer overrun with a deep history. |
| |
| - contributed script import-tars did not get the directory in |
| tar archives interpreted correctly. |
| |
| - git-svn was reported to segfault for many people on list and |
| #git; hopefully this has been fixed. |
| |
| - git-svn also had a bug to crash svnserve by sending a bad |
| sequence of requests. |
| |
| - "git-svn clone" does not try to minimize the URL |
| (i.e. connect to higher level hierarchy) by default, as this |
| can prevent clone to fail if only part of the repository |
| (e.g. 'trunk') is open to public. |
| |
| - "git checkout branch^0" did not detach the head when you are |
| already on 'branch'; backported the fix from the 'master'. |
| |
| - "git-config section.var" did not correctly work when |
| existing configuration file had both [section] and [section "name"] |
| next to each other. |
| |
| - "git clone ../other-directory" was fooled if the current |
| directory $PWD points at is a symbolic link. |
| |
| - (build) tree_entry_extract() function was both static inline |
| and extern, which caused trouble compiling with Forte12 |
| compilers on Sun. |
| |
| - Many many documentation fixes and updates. |
