Git v1.8.5.4 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.8.5.4
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* "git fetch --depth=0" was a no-op, and was silently ignored.
|
|
Diagnose it as an error.
|
|
|
|
* Remote repository URL expressed in scp-style host:path notation are
|
|
parsed more carefully (e.g. "foo/bar:baz" is local, "[::1]:/~user" asks
|
|
to connect to user's home directory on host at address ::1.
|
|
|
|
* SSL-related options were not passed correctly to underlying socket
|
|
layer in "git send-email".
|
|
|
|
* "git commit -v" appends the patch to the log message before
|
|
editing, and then removes the patch when the editor returned
|
|
control. However, the patch was not stripped correctly when the
|
|
first modified path was a submodule.
|
|
|
|
* "git mv A B/", when B does not exist as a directory, should error
|
|
out, but it didn't.
|
|
|
|
* When we figure out how many file descriptors to allocate for
|
|
keeping packfiles open, a system with non-working getrlimit() could
|
|
cause us to die(), but because we make this call only to get a
|
|
rough estimate of how many is available and we do not even attempt
|
|
to use up all file descriptors available ourselves, it is nicer to
|
|
fall back to a reasonable low value rather than dying.
|
|
|
|
* "git log --decorate" did not handle a tag pointed by another tag
|
|
nicely.
|
|
|
|
* "git add -A" (no other arguments) in a totally empty working tree
|
|
used to emit an error.
|
|
|
|
* There is no reason to have a hardcoded upper limit of the number of
|
|
parents for an octopus merge, created via the graft mechanism, but
|
|
there was.
|
|
|
|
* The implementation of 'git stash $cmd "stash@{...}"' did not quote
|
|
the stash argument properly and left it split at IFS whitespace.
|
|
|
|
* The documentation to "git pull" hinted there is an "-m" option
|
|
because it incorrectly shared the documentation with "git merge".
|
|
|
|
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
