|
Fixes since v2.16
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
* An old regression in "git describe --all $annotated_tag^0" has been
|
|
fixed.
|
|
(merge 1bba00130a dk/describe-all-output-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git status" after moving a path in the working tree (hence making
|
|
it appear "removed") and then adding with the -N option (hence
|
|
making that appear "added") detected it as a rename, but did not
|
|
report the old and new pathnames correctly.
|
|
(merge 176ea74793 nd/ita-wt-renames-in-status later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git svn dcommit" did not take into account the fact that a
|
|
svn+ssh:// URL with a username@ (typically used for pushing) refers
|
|
to the same SVN repository without the username@ and failed when
|
|
svn.pushmergeinfo option is set.
|
|
(merge 8aaed892fd jm/svn-pushmergeinfo-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* API clean-up around revision traversal.
|
|
(merge 6fcec2f9ae rs/lose-leak-pending later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git merge -Xours/-Xtheirs" learned to use our/their version when
|
|
resolving a conflicting updates to a symbolic link.
|
|
(merge fd48b46474 jc/merge-symlink-ours-theirs later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git clone $there $here" is allowed even when here directory exists
|
|
as long as it is an empty directory, but the command incorrectly
|
|
removed it upon a failure of the operation.
|
|
(merge d45420c1c8 jk/abort-clone-with-existing-dest later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git commit --fixup" did not allow "-m<message>" option to be used
|
|
at the same time; allow it to annotate resulting commit with more
|
|
text.
|
|
(merge 30884c9afc ab/commit-m-with-fixup later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* When resetting the working tree files recursively, the working tree
|
|
of submodules are now also reset to match.
|
|
(merge 7dcc1f4df8 sb/submodule-update-reset-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git stash -- <pathspec>" incorrectly blew away untracked files in
|
|
the directory that matched the pathspec, which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge bba067d2fa tg/stash-with-pathspec-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Instead of maintaining home-grown email address parsing code, ship
|
|
a copy of reasonably recent Mail::Address to be used as a fallback
|
|
in 'git send-email' when the platform lacks it.
|
|
(merge d60be8acab mm/send-email-fallback-to-local-mail-address later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git add -p" was taught to ignore local changes to submodules as
|
|
they do not interfere with the partial addition of regular changes
|
|
anyway.
|
|
(merge 12434efc1d nd/add-i-ignore-submodules later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Other minor doc, test and build updates and code cleanups.
|
|
(merge e2a5a028c7 bw/oidmap-autoinit later to maint).
|
|
(merge f0a6068a9f ys/bisect-object-id-missing-conversion-fix later to maint).
|
|
(merge 30221a3389 as/read-tree-prefix-doc-fix later to maint).
|
|
(merge 9bd2ce5432 ab/doc-cat-file-e-still-shows-errors later to maint).
