| Git v1.7.2.3 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.7.2.2 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, we |
| threw an assertion failure. |
| |
| * "git archive" gave the full commit ID for "$Format:%h$". |
| |
| * "git fetch --tags" did not fetch tags when remote.<nick>.tagopt was set |
| to --no-tags. The command line option now overrides the configuration |
| setting. |
| |
| * "git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname:short)'" has been completely |
| broken for a long time. |
| |
| * "git gc" incorrectly pruned a rerere record that was created long |
| time ago but still is actively and repeatedly used. |
| |
| * "git log --follow -M -p" was seriously broken in 1.7.2, reporting |
| assertion failure. |
| |
| * Running "git log" with an incorrect option started pager nevertheless, |
| forcing the user to dismiss it. |
| |
| * "git rebase" did not work well when the user has diff.renames |
| configuration variable set. |
| |
| * An earlier (and rather old) fix to "git rebase" against a rebased |
| upstream broke a more normal, non rebased upstream case rather badly, |
| attempting to re-apply patches that are already accepted upstream. |
| |
| * "git submodule sync" forgot to update the superproject's config file |
| when submodule URL changed. |
| |
| * "git pack-refs --all --prune" did not remove a directory that has |
| become empty. |
