| GIT v1.5.6.2 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Futureproof |
| ----------- |
| |
| * "git-shell" accepts requests without a dash between "git" and |
| subcommand name (e.g. "git upload-pack") which the newer client will |
| start to make sometime in the future. |
| |
| Fixes since v1.5.6.1 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a |
| serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for |
| moderately large import. |
| |
| * "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file |
| unnecessarily. |
| |
| * "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status |
| reliably. |
| |
| * "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another |
| annotated tag was given to it. |
