| Git v1.8.4.3 Release Notes |
| ======================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.8.4.2 |
| -------------------- |
| |
| * "git rev-list --objects ^v1.0^ v1.0" gave v1.0 tag itself in the |
| output, but "git rev-list --objects v1.0^..v1.0" did not. |
| |
| * The fall-back parsing of commit objects with broken author or |
| committer lines were less robust than ideal in picking up the |
| timestamps. |
| |
| * Bash prompting code to deal with an SVN remote as an upstream |
| were coded in a way not supported by older Bash versions (3.x). |
| |
| * "git checkout topic", when there is not yet a local "topic" branch |
| but there is a unique remote-tracking branch for a remote "topic" |
| branch, pretended as if "git checkout -t -b topic remote/$r/topic" |
| (for that unique remote $r) was run. This hack however was not |
| implemented for "git checkout topic --". |
| |
| * Coloring around octopus merges in "log --graph" output was screwy. |
| |
| * We did not generate HTML version of documentation to "git subtree" |
| in contrib/. |
| |
| * The synopsis section of "git unpack-objects" documentation has been |
| clarified a bit. |
| |
| * An ancient How-To on serving Git repositories on an HTTP server |
| lacked a warning that it has been mostly superseded with more |
| modern way. |
| |
| Also contains a handful of trivial code clean-ups, documentation |
| updates, updates to the test suite, etc. |
