Git 2.38.2 Release Notes
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is to backport various fixes accumulated during the development
|
||
|
towards Git 2.39, the next feature release.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Fixes since v2.38.1
|
||
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Update CodingGuidelines to clarify what features to use and avoid
|
||
|
in C99.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The codepath that reads from the index v4 had unaligned memory
|
||
|
accesses, which has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git remote rename" failed to rename a remote without fetch
|
||
|
refspec, which has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git clone" did not like to see the "--bare" and the "--origin"
|
||
|
options used together without a good reason.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Fix messages incorrectly marked for translation.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git fsck" failed to release contents of tree objects already used
|
||
|
from the memory, which has been fixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git rebase -i" can mistakenly attempt to apply a fixup to a commit
|
||
|
itself, which has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* In read-only repositories, "git merge-tree" tried to come up with a
|
||
|
merge result tree object, which it failed (which is not wrong) and
|
||
|
led to a segfault (which is bad), which has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Force C locale while running tests around httpd to make sure we can
|
||
|
find expected error messages in the log.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Fix a logic in "mailinfo -b" that miscomputed the length of a
|
||
|
substring, which lead to an out-of-bounds access.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The codepath to sign learned to report errors when it fails to read
|
||
|
from "ssh-keygen".
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "GIT_EDITOR=: git branch --edit-description" resulted in failure,
|
||
|
which has been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
