GIT v1.5.6 Release Notes
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Updates since v1.5.5
|
||
|
--------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
(subsystems)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
(portability)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
(performance)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git rebase --onto $there $from $branch" used to switch to the tip of
|
||
|
$branch only to immediately reset back to $from, smudging work tree
|
||
|
files unnecessarily. This has been optimized.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(usability, bells and whistles)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git add -p" (and the "patch" subcommand of "git add -i") can choose to
|
||
|
apply (or not apply) mode changes independently from contents changes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git bisect help" gives longer and more helpful usage information.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git diff/log --dirstat" output is consistent between binary and textual
|
||
|
changes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git gc --auto" honors a new pre-aut-gc hook to temporarily disable it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git log --pretty=tformat:<custom format>" gives a LF after each entry,
|
||
|
instead of giving a LF between each pair of entries which is how
|
||
|
"git log --pretty=format:<custom format>" works.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git send-email" now can send out messages outside a git repository.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git status" can optionally include output from "git submodule
|
||
|
summary".
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "gitweb" can read from a system-wide configuration file.
|
||
|
|
||
|
(internal)
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git unpack-objects" and "git receive-pack" is now more strict about
|
||
|
detecting breakage in the objects they receive over the wire.
|
||
