| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v1.5.3.1 |
| 5 | -------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * git-push sent thin packs by default, which was not good for |
| 8 | the public distribution server (no point in saving transfer |
| 9 | while pushing; no point in making the resulting pack less |
| 10 | optimum). |
| 11 | |
| 12 | * git-svn sometimes terminated with "Malformed network data" when |
| 13 | talking over svn:// protocol. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | * git-send-email re-issued the same message-id about 10% of the |
| 16 | time if you fired off 30 messages within a single second. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | * git-stash was not terminating the log message of commits it |
| 19 | internally creates with LF. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | * git-apply failed to check the size of the patch hunk when its |
| 22 | beginning part matched the remainder of the preimage exactly, |
| 23 | even though the preimage recorded in the hunk was much larger |
| 24 | (therefore the patch should not have applied), leading to a |
| 25 | segfault. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | * "git rm foo && git commit foo" complained that 'foo' needs to |
| 28 | be added first, instead of committing the removal, which was a |
| 29 | nonsense. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | * git grep -c said "/dev/null: 0". |
| 32 | |
| 33 | * git-add -u failed to recognize a blob whose type changed |
| 34 | between the index and the work tree. |
| 35 | |
| 36 | * The limit to rename detection has been tightened a lot to |
| 37 | reduce performance problems with a huge change. |
| 38 | |
| 39 | * cvsimport and svnimport barfed when the input tried to move |
| 40 | a tag. |
| 41 | |
| 42 | * "git apply -pN" did not chop the right number of directories. |
| 43 | |
| 44 | * "git svnimport" did not like SVN tags with funny characters in them. |
| 45 | |
| 46 | * git-gui 0.8.3, with assorted fixes, including: |
| 47 | |
| 48 | - font-chooser on X11 was unusable with large number of fonts; |
| 49 | - a diff that contained a deleted symlink made it barf; |
| 50 | - an untracked symbolic link to a directory made it fart; |
| 51 | - a file with % in its name made it vomit; |
| 52 | |
| 53 | |
| 54 | Documentation updates |
| 55 | --------------------- |
| 56 | |
| 57 | User manual has been somewhat restructured. I think the new |
| 58 | organization is much easier to read. |
