| GIT v1.6.0.6 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Fixes since 1.6.0.5 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| * "git fsck" had a deep recursion that wasted stack space. |
| |
| * "git fast-export" and "git fast-import" choked on an old style |
| annotated tag that lack the tagger information. |
| |
| * "git mergetool -- file" did not correctly skip "--" marker that |
| signals the end of options list. |
| |
| * "git show $tag" segfaulted when an annotated $tag pointed at a |
| nonexistent object. |
| |
| * "git show 2>error" when the standard output is automatically redirected |
| to the pager redirected the standard error to the pager as well; there |
| was no need to. |
| |
| * "git send-email" did not correctly handle list of addresses when |
| they had quoted comma (e.g. "Lastname, Givenname" <mail@addre.ss>). |
| |
| * Logic to discover branch ancestry in "git svn" was unreliable when |
| the process to fetch history was interrupted. |
| |
| * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose |
| implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing, |
| which would have run an external diff command specified in the |
| repository configuration as the gitweb user. |
| |
| Also contains numerous documentation typofixes. |
