* Clean-up of the C part of i18n (but not l10n---please wait)
|

continues.
|

|

* The scripting part of the codebase is getting prepared for i18n/l10n.

* Processes spawned by "[alias] <name> = !process" in the configuration

can inspect GIT_PREFIX environment variable to learn where in the

working tree the original command was invoked.
|

|

* A magic pathspec ":/" tells a command that limits its operation to
|
||||
the current directory when ran from a subdirectory to work on the
|
||||
entire working tree. In general, ":/path/to/file" would be relative
|
||||
to the root of the working tree hierarchy.
|

|
||||
After "git reset --hard; edit Makefile; cd t/", "git add -u" would
|
||||
be a no-op, but "git add -u :/" would add the updated contents of
|
||||
the Makefile at the top level. If you want to name a path in the
|
||||
current subdirectory whose unusual name begins with ":/", you can
|
||||
name it by "./:/that/path" or by "\:/that/path".
|
||||
|
||||
* "git blame" learned "--abbrev[=<n>]" option to control the minimum
|
||||
number of hexdigits shown for commit object names.
|
||||
|
||||
* "git blame" learned "--line-porcelain" that is less efficient but is
|
||||
easier to parse.
|

|
||||
* Aborting "git commit --interactive" discards updates to the index
|
||||
made during the interctive session.

* "git merge" learned "-" as a short-hand for "the previous branch", just
