| Git v1.7.6.4 Release Notes |
| ========================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.7.6.3 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * The error reporting logic of "git am" when the command is fed a file |
| whose mail-storage format is unknown was fixed. |
| |
| * "git branch --set-upstream @{-1} foo" did not expand @{-1} correctly. |
| |
| * "git check-ref-format --print" used to parrot a candidate string that |
| began with a slash (e.g. /refs/heads/master) without stripping it, to make |
| the result a suitably normalized string the caller can append to "$GIT_DIR/". |
| |
| * "git clone" failed to clone locally from a ".git" file that itself |
| is not a directory but is a pointer to one. |
| |
| * "git clone" from a local repository that borrows from another |
| object store using a relative path in its objects/info/alternates |
| file did not adjust the alternates in the resulting repository. |
| |
| * "git describe --dirty" did not refresh the index before checking the |
| state of the working tree files. |
| |
| * "git ls-files ../$path" that is run from a subdirectory reported errors |
| incorrectly when there is no such path that matches the given pathspec. |
| |
| * "git mergetool" could loop forever prompting when nothing can be read |
| from the standard input. |
| |
| Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates. |
