GIT v1.6.4.1 Release Notes | ||
========================== | ||
|
||
Fixes since v1.6.4 | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
* An unquoted value in the configuration file, when it contains more than | ||
one whitespaces in a row, got them replaced with a single space. | ||
|
||
* "git am" used to accept a single piece of e-mail per file (not a mbox) | ||
as its input, but multiple input format support in v1.6.4 broke it. | ||
Apparently many people have been depending on this feature. | ||
|
||
* The short help text for "git filter-branch" command was a single long | ||
line, wrapped by terminals, and was hard to read. | ||
|
||
* The "recursive" strategy of "git merge" segfaulted when a merge has | ||
more than one merge-bases, and merging of these merge-bases involves | ||
a rename/rename or a rename/add conflict. | ||
|
||
* "git pull --rebase" did not use the right fork point when the | ||
repository has already fetched from the upstream that rewinds the | ||
branch it is based on in an earlier fetch. | ||
|
||
* Explain the concept of fast-forward more fully in "git push" | ||
documentation, and hint to refer to it from an error message when the | ||
command refuses an update to protect the user. | ||
|
||
* The default value for pack.deltacachesize, used by "git repack", is now | ||
256M, instead of unbounded. Otherwise a repack of a moderately sized | ||
repository would needlessly eat into swap. | ||
|
||
* Document how "git repack" (hence "git gc") interacts with a repository | ||
that borrows its objects from other repositories (e.g. ones created by | ||
"git clone -s"). | ||
|
||
* "git show" on an annotated tag lacked a delimiting blank line between | ||
the tag itself and the contents of the object it tags. | ||
|
||
* "git verify-pack -v" erroneously reported number of objects with too | ||
deep delta depths as "chain length 0" objects. | ||
|
||
* Long names of authors and committers outside US-ASCII were sometimes | ||
incorrectly shown in "gitweb". | ||
|
||
Other minor documentation updates are included. |
