GIT v1.5.2 Release Notes (draft) | ||
======================== | ||
|
||
Updates since v1.5.1 | ||
-------------------- | ||
|
||
* New commands and options. | ||
|
||
- "git bisect start" can optionally take a single bad commit and | ||
zero or more good commits on the command line. | ||
|
||
* Updated behavior of existing commands. | ||
|
||
- "git diff --stat" shows size of preimage and postimage blobs | ||
for binary contents. Earlier it only said "Bin". | ||
|
||
- "git lost-found" shows stuff that are unreachable except | ||
from reflogs. | ||
|
||
- "git checkout branch^0" now detaches HEAD at the tip commit | ||
on the named branch, instead of just switching to the | ||
branch (use "git checkout branch" to switch to the branch, | ||
as before). | ||
|
||
- "git bisect next" can be used after giving only a bad commit | ||
without giving a good one (this starts bisection half-way to | ||
the root commit). We used to refuse to operate without a | ||
good and a bad commit. | ||
|
||
* Builds | ||
|
||
- git-p4import has never been installed; now there is an | ||
installation option to do so. | ||
|
||
- gitk and git-gui can be configured out. | ||
|
||
- Generated documentation pages automatically get version | ||
information from GIT_VERSION | ||
|
||
- Parallel build with "make -j" descending into subdirectory | ||
was fixed. | ||
|
||
* Performance Tweaks | ||
|
||
- optimized "git-rev-list --bisect" (hence "git-bisect"). | ||
|
||
- optimized "git-add $path" in a large directory, most of | ||
whose contents are ignored. | ||
|
||
|
||
Fixes since v1.5.1 | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
The following are all in v1.5.1.x series, unless otherwise noted. | ||
|
||
* Documentation updates | ||
|
||
* Bugfixes | ||
|
||
- Switching branches with "git checkout" refused to work when | ||
a path changes from a file to a directory between the | ||
current branch and the new branch, in order not to lose | ||
possible local changes in the directory that is being turned | ||
into a file with the switch. We now allow such a branch | ||
switch after making sure that there is no locally modified | ||
file nor un-ignored file in the directory. This has not | ||
been backported to 1.5.1.x series, as it is rather an | ||
intrusive change. | ||
|
||
* Performance Tweaks | ||
