- GIT v1.5.1.2 Release Notes
- ==========================
-
- Fixes since v1.5.1.1
- --------------------
-
- * Bugfixes
-
- - "git clone" over http from a repository that has lost the
- loose refs by running "git pack-refs" were broken (a code to
- deal with this was added to "git fetch" in v1.5.0, but it
- was missing from "git clone").
-
- - "git diff a/ b/" incorrectly fell in "diff between two
- filesystem objects" codepath, when the user most likely
- wanted to limit the extent of output to two tracked
- directories.
-
- - git-quiltimport had the same bug as we fixed for
- git-applymbox in v1.5.1.1 -- it gave an alarming "did not
- have any patch" message (but did not actually fail and was
- harmless).
-
- - various git-svn fixes.
-
- - Sample update hook incorrectly always refused requests to
- delete branches through push.
-
- - git-blame on a very long working tree path had buffer
- overrun problem.
-
- - git-apply did not like to be fed two patches in a row that created
- and then modified the same file.
-
- - git-svn was confused when a non-project was stored directly under
- trunk/, branches/ and tags/.
-
- - git-svn wants the Error.pm module that was at least as new
- as what we ship as part of git; install ours in our private
- installation location if the one on the system is older.
-
- - An earlier update to command line integer parameter parser was
- botched and made 'update-index --cacheinfo' completely useless.
-
-
- * Documentation updates
-
- - Various documentation updates from J. Bruce Fields, Frank
- Lichtenheld, Alex Riesen and others. Andrew Ruder started a
- war on undocumented options.
