- GIT v1.5.3.2 Release Notes
- ==========================
-
- Fixes since v1.5.3.1
- --------------------
-
- * git-push sent thin packs by default, which was not good for
- the public distribution server (no point in saving transfer
- while pushing; no point in making the resulting pack less
- optimum).
-
- * git-svn sometimes terminated with "Malformed network data" when
- talking over svn:// protocol.
-
- * git-send-email re-issued the same message-id about 10% of the
- time if you fired off 30 messages within a single second.
-
- * git-stash was not terminating the log message of commits it
- internally creates with LF.
-
- * git-apply failed to check the size of the patch hunk when its
- beginning part matched the remainder of the preimage exactly,
- even though the preimage recorded in the hunk was much larger
- (therefore the patch should not have applied), leading to a
- segfault.
-
- * "git rm foo && git commit foo" complained that 'foo' needs to
- be added first, instead of committing the removal, which was a
- nonsense.
-
- * git grep -c said "/dev/null: 0".
-
- * git-add -u failed to recognize a blob whose type changed
- between the index and the work tree.
-
- * The limit to rename detection has been tightened a lot to
- reduce performance problems with a huge change.
-
- * cvsimport and svnimport barfed when the input tried to move
- a tag.
-
- * "git apply -pN" did not chop the right number of directories.
-
- * "git svnimport" did not like SVN tags with funny characters in them.
-
- * git-gui 0.8.3, with assorted fixes, including:
-
- - font-chooser on X11 was unusable with large number of fonts;
- - a diff that contained a deleted symlink made it barf;
- - an untracked symbolic link to a directory made it fart;
- - a file with % in its name made it vomit;
-
-
- Documentation updates
- ---------------------
-
- User manual has been somewhat restructured. I think the new
- organization is much easier to read.
