GIT v1.6.2 Release Notes
|
||||
========================
|
||||
|
||||
With the next major release, "git push" into a branch that is
|
||||
currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose
|
||||
what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration
|
||||
variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository.
|
||||
|
||||
To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a
|
||||
push running this release will issue a big warning when the
|
||||
configuration variable is missing. Please refer to:
|
||||
|
||||
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007
|
||||
|
||||
for more details on the transition plan.
