GIT v1.6.1 Release Notes
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
Updates since v1.6.0
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
When some commands (e.g. "git log", "git diff") spawn pager internally, we
|
|
used to make the pager the parent process of the git command that produces
|
|
output. This meant that the exit status of the whole thing comes from the
|
|
pager, not the underlying git command. We swapped the order of the
|
|
processes around and you will see the exit code from the command from now
|
|
on.
|
|
|
|
(subsystems)
|
|
|
|
* ...
|
|
|
|
(portability)
|
|
|
|
* ...
|
|
|
|
(documentation)
|
|
|
|
* ...
|
|
|
|
(performance)
|
|
|
|
* The underlying diff machinery to produce textual output has been
|
|
optimized, which would result in faster "git blame" processing.
|
|
|
|
(usability, bells and whistles)
|
|
|
|
* "git checkout --track origin/hack" used to be a syntax error. It now
|
|
DWIMs to create a corresponding local branch "hack", i.e. acts as if you
|
|
said "git checkout --track -b hack origin/hack".
|
|
|
|
* "git diff" learned to mimick --suppress-blank-empty from GNU diff via a
|
|
configuration option.
|
|
|
|
* "git imap-send" can optionally talk SSL.
|
|
|
|
(internal)
|
|
|
|
* "git hash-object" learned to lie about the path being hashed, so that
|
|
correct gitattributes processing can be done while hashing contents
|
|
stored in a temporary file.
