| Git v2.4.4 Release Notes |
| ======================== |
| |
| Fixes since v2.4.3 |
| ------------------ |
| |
| * l10n updates for German. |
| |
| * An earlier leakfix to bitmap testing code was incomplete. |
| |
| * "git clean pathspec..." tried to lstat(2) and complain even for |
| paths outside the given pathspec. |
| |
| * Communication between the HTTP server and http_backend process can |
| lead to a dead-lock when relaying a large ref negotiation request. |
| Diagnose the situation better, and mitigate it by reading such a |
| request first into core (to a reasonable limit). |
| |
| * The clean/smudge interface did not work well when filtering an |
| empty contents (failed and then passed the empty input through). |
| It can be argued that a filter that produces anything but empty for |
| an empty input is nonsense, but if the user wants to do strange |
| things, then why not? |
| |
| * Make "git stash something --help" error out, so that users can |
| safely say "git stash drop --help". |
| |
| * Clarify that "log --raw" and "log --format=raw" are unrelated |
| concepts. |
| |
| * Catch a programmer mistake to feed a pointer not an array to |
| ARRAY_SIZE() macro, by using a couple of GCC extensions. |
| |
| Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code |
| clean-ups. |
