| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| Junio C Hamano | 6079ec6 | 2010-12-03 15:18:06 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 4 | In addition to the usual fixes, this release also includes support for |
| 5 | the new "add.ignoreErrors" name given to the existing "add.ignore-errors" |
| 6 | configuration variable. |
| 7 | |
| 8 | The next version, Git 1.7.4, and future versions, will support both |
| 9 | old and incorrect name and the new corrected name, but without this |
| 10 | backport, users who want to use the new name "add.ignoreErrors" in |
| 11 | their repositories cannot use older versions of Git. |

| Junio C Hamano | 7e4eb21 | 2010-12-02 12:24:42 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 13 | Fixes since v1.7.3.2 |
| 14 | -------------------- |
| 15 | |
| 16 | * "git apply" segfaulted when a bogus input is fed to it. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | * Running "git cherry-pick --ff" on a root commit segfaulted. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | * "diff", "blame" and friends incorrectly applied textconv filters to |
| 21 | symlinks. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | * Highlighting of whitespace breakage in "diff" output was showing |
| 24 | incorrect amount of whitespaces when blank-at-eol is set and the line |
| 25 | consisted only of whitespaces and a TAB. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | * "diff" was overly inefficient when trying to find the line to use for |
| 28 | the function header (i.e. equivalent to --show-c-function of GNU diff). |
| 29 | |
| 30 | * "git imap-send" depends on libcrypto but our build rule relied on the |
| 31 | linker to implicitly link it via libssl, which was wrong. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | * "git merge-file" can be called from within a subdirectory now. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | * "git repack -f" expanded and recompressed non-delta objects in the |
| 36 | existing pack, which was wasteful. Use new "-F" option if you really |
| 37 | want to (e.g. when changing the pack.compression level). |
| 38 | |
| 39 | * "git rev-list --format="...%x00..." incorrectly chopped its output |
| 40 | at NUL. |
| 41 | |
| 42 | * "git send-email" did not correctly remove duplicate mail addresses from |
| 43 | the Cc: header that appear on the To: header. |
| 44 | |
| 45 | * The completion script (in contrib/completion) ignored lightweight tags |
| 46 | in __git_ps1(). |
| 47 | |
| 48 | * "git-blame" mode (in contrib/emacs) didn't say (require 'format-spec) |
| 49 | even though it depends on it; it didn't work with Emacs 22 or older |
| 50 | unless Gnus is used. |
| 51 | |
| 52 | * "git-p4" (in contrib/) did not correctly handle deleted files. |
| 53 | |
| Junio C Hamano | 6079ec6 | 2010-12-03 15:18:06 -0800 | [diff] [blame] | 54 | Other minor fixes and documentation updates are also included. |
