| Git 2.37.4 Release Notes |
| ======================== |
| |
| This primarily is to backport various fixes accumulated on the 'master' |
| front since 2.37.3. |
| |
| Fixes since v2.37.3 |
| ------------------- |
| |
| * An earlier optimization discarded a tree-object buffer that is |
| still in use, which has been corrected. |
| |
| * Fix deadlocks between main Git process and subprocess spawned via |
| the pipe_command() API, that can kill "git add -p" that was |
| reimplemented in C recently. |
| |
| * xcalloc(), imitating calloc(), takes "number of elements of the |
| array", and "size of a single element", in this order. A call that |
| does not follow this ordering has been corrected. |
| |
| * The preload-index codepath made copies of pathspec to give to |
| multiple threads, which were left leaked. |
| |
| * Update the version of Ubuntu used for GitHub Actions CI from 18.04 |
| to 22.04. |
| |
| * The auto-stashed local changes created by "git merge --autostash" |
| was mixed into a conflicted state left in the working tree, which |
| has been corrected. |
| |
| Also contains other minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
