| Git 1.8.1.5 Release Notes |
| ========================= |
| |
| Fixes since v1.8.1.5 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * "git apply --summary" has been taught to make sure the similarity |
| value shown in its output is sensible, even when the input had a |
| bogus value. |
| |
| * "git clean" showed what it was going to do, but sometimes ended |
| up finding that it was not allowed to do so, which resulted in a |
| confusing output (e.g. after saying that it will remove an |
| untracked directory, it found an embedded git repository there |
| which it is not allowed to remove). It now performs the actions |
| and then reports the outcome more faithfully. |
| |
| * "git clone" used to allow --bare and --separate-git-dir=$there |
| options at the same time, which was nonsensical. |
| |
| * "git cvsimport" mishandled timestamps at DST boundary. |
| |
| * We used to have an arbitrary 32 limit for combined diff input, |
| resulting in incorrect number of leading colons shown when showing |
| the "--raw --cc" output. |
| |
| * The smart HTTP clients forgot to verify the content-type that comes |
| back from the server side to make sure that the request is being |
| handled properly. |
| |
| * "git help remote-helpers" failed to find the documentation. |
| |
| * "gitweb" pages served over HTTPS, when configured to show picon or |
| gravatar, referred to these external resources to be fetched via |
| HTTP, resulting in mixed contents warning in browsers. |
| |
| Also contains various documentation fixes. |
