| GIT v1.6.3.2 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.6.3.1 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * A few codepaths picked up the first few bytes from an sha1[] by |
| casting the (char *) pointer to (int *); GCC 4.4 did not like this, |
| and aborted compilation. |
| |
| * http-push had a small use-after-free bug. |
| |
| * command completion code in bash did not reliably detect that we are |
| in a bare repository. |
| |
| * "git for-each-ref" had a segfaulting bug when dealing with a tag object |
| created by an ancient git. |
| |
| * Some unlink(2) failures went undiagnosed. |
| |
| * The "recursive" merge strategy misbehaved when faced rename/delete |
| conflicts while coming up with an intermediate merge base. |
| |
| * GIT_TRACE mechanism segfaulted when tracing a shell-quoted aliases. |
| |
| * "git add ." in an empty directory complained that pathspec "." did not |
| match anything, which may be technically correct, but not useful. We |
| silently make it a no-op now. |
| |
| * "git format-patch -k" still added patch numbers if format.numbered |
| configuration was set. |
| |
| * OpenBSD also uses st_ctimspec in "struct stat", instead of "st_ctim". |
| |
| * With NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS, "make install" can be told not to |
| create hardlinks between $(gitexecdir)/git-$builtin_commands and |
| $(bindir)/git. |
| |
| * "git push" was converting OFS_DELTA pack representation into less |
| efficient REF_DELTA representation unconditionally upon transfer, |
| making the transferred data unnecessarily larger. |
| |
| Many other general usability updates around help text, diagnostic messages |
| and documentation are included as well. |
