| Git 2.12 Release Notes |
| ====================== |
| |
| Backward compatibility notes. |
| |
| * Use of an empty string that is used for 'everything matches' is |
| still warned and Git asks users to use a more explicit '.' for that |
| instead. The hope is that existing users will not mind this |
| change, and eventually the warning can be turned into a hard error, |
| upgrading the deprecation into removal of this (mis)feature. That |
| is not scheduled to happen in the upcoming release (yet). |
| |
| * The historical argument order "git merge <msg> HEAD <commit>..." |
| has been deprecated for quite some time, and will be removed in the |
| upcoming release. |
