Git v2.37 Release Notes
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
UI, Workflows & Features
|
|
|
|
* "vimdiff[123]" mergetool drivers have been reimplemented with a
|
|
more generic layout mechanism.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
|
|
|
|
* The performance of the "untracked cache" feature has been improved
|
|
when "--untracked-files=<mode>" and "status.showUntrackedFiles"
|
|
are combined.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.36
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
* "git submodule update" without pathspec should silently skip an
|
|
uninitialized submodule, but it started to become noisy by mistake.
|
|
(merge 4f1ccef87c gc/submodule-update-part2 later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "diff-tree --stdin" has been broken for about a year, but 2.36
|
|
release broke it even worse by breaking running the command with
|
|
<pathspec>, which in turn broke "gitk" and got noticed. This has
|
|
been corrected by aligning its behaviour to that of "log".
|
|
(merge f8781bfda3 jc/diff-tree-stdin-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Regression fix for 2.36 where "git name-rev" started to sometimes
|
|
reference strings after they are freed.
|
|
(merge 45a14f578e rs/name-rev-fix-free-after-use later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git show <commit1> <commit2>... -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec
|
|
when showing the second and subsequent commits, which has been
|
|
corrected.
|
|
(merge 5cdb38458e jc/show-pathspec-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git fast-export -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec when showing the
|
|
second and subsequent commits, which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge d1c25272f5 rs/fast-export-pathspec-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git format-patch <args> -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec when
|
|
showing the second and subsequent commits, which has been
|
|
corrected.
|
|
(merge 91f8f7e46f rs/format-patch-pathspec-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git clone --origin X" leaked piece of memory that held value read
|
|
from the clone.defaultRemoteName configuration variable, which has
|
|
been plugged.
|
|
(merge 6dfadc8981 jc/clone-remote-name-leak-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Get rid of a bogus and over-eager coccinelle rule.
|
|
(merge 08bdd3a185 jc/cocci-xstrdup-or-null-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* The path taken by "git multi-pack-index" command from the end user
|
|
was compared with path internally prepared by the tool withut first
|
|
normalizing, which lead to duplicated paths not being noticed,
|
|
which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge 11f9e8de3d ds/midx-normalize-pathname-before-comparison later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Correct choices of C compilers used in various CI jobs.
|
|
(merge 3506cae04f ab/cc-package-fixes later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Various cleanups to "git p4".
|
|
(merge 4ff0108d9e jh/p4-various-fixups later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* The progress meter of "git blame" was showing incorrect numbers
|
|
when processing only parts of the file.
|
|
(merge e5f5d7d42e ea/progress-partial-blame later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
|
|
(merge e6b2582da3 cm/reftable-0-length-memset later to maint).
|
|
(merge 0b75e5bf22 ab/misc-cleanup later to maint).
