| Git 2.34 Release Notes |
| ====================== |
| |
| Updates since Git 2.33 |
| ---------------------- |
| |
| UI, Workflows & Features |
| |
| * Pathname expansion (like "~username/") learned a way to specify a |
| location relative to Git installation (e.g. its $sharedir which is |
| $(prefix)/share), with "%(prefix)". |
| |
| |
| Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. |
| |
| * "git bisect" spawned "git show-branch" only to pretty-print the |
| title of the commit after checking out the next version to be |
| tested; this has been rewritten in C. |
| |
| * "git add" can work better with the sparse index. |
| |
| * Support for ancient versions of cURL library (pre 7.19.4) has been |
| dropped. |
| |
| * A handful of tests that assumed implementation details of files |
| backend for refs have been cleaned up. |
| |
| * trace2 logs learned to show parent process name to see in what |
| context Git was invoked. |
| |
| * Loading of ref tips to prepare for common ancestry negotiation in |
| "git fetch-pack" has been optimized by taking advantage of the |
| commit graph when available. |
| |
| |
| Fixes since v2.33 |

| * Input validation of "git pack-objects --stdin-packs" has been |
| corrected. |
