Git v2.15.2 Release Notes
|
||
|
=========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Fixes since v2.15.1
|
||
|
-------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Recent update to the refs infrastructure implementation started
|
||
|
rewriting packed-refs file more often than before; this has been
|
||
|
optimized again for most trivial cases.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The SubmittingPatches document has been converted to produce an
|
||
|
HTML version via AsciiDoc/Asciidoctor.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Contrary to the documentation, "git pull -4/-6 other-args" did not
|
||
|
ask the underlying "git fetch" to go over IPv4/IPv6, which has been
|
||
|
corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* When "git rebase" prepared an mailbox of changes and fed it to "git
|
||
|
am" to replay them, it was confused when a stray "From " happened
|
||
|
to be in the log message of one of the replayed changes. This has
|
||
|
been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Command line completion (in contrib/) has been taught about the
|
||
|
"--copy" option of "git branch".
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git apply --inaccurate-eof" when used with "--ignore-space-change"
|
||
|
triggered an internal sanity check, which has been fixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The sequencer machinery (used by "git cherry-pick A..B", and "git
|
||
|
rebase -i", among other things) would have lost a commit if stopped
|
||
|
due to an unlockable index file, which has been fixed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* The three-way merge performed by "git cherry-pick" was confused
|
||
|
when a new submodule was added in the meantime, which has been
|
||
|
fixed (or "papered over").
|
||
|
|
||
|
* "git notes" sent its error message to its standard output stream,
|
||
|
which was corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* A few scripts (both in production and tests) incorrectly redirected
|
||
|
their error output. These have been corrected.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* Clarify and enhance documentation for "merge-base --fork-point", as
|
||
|
it was clear what it computed but not why/what for.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
