- Git v1.6.6.2 Release Notes
- ==========================
-
- Fixes since v1.6.6.1
- --------------------
-
- * recursive merge didn't correctly diagnose its own programming errors,
- and instead caused the caller to segfault.
-
- * The new "smart http" aware clients probed the web servers to see if
- they support smart http, but did not fall back to dumb http transport
- correctly with some servers.
-
- * Time based reflog syntax e.g. "@{yesterday}" didn't diagnose a misspelled
- time specification and instead assumed "@{now}".
-
- * "git archive HEAD -- no-such-directory" produced an empty archive
- without complaining.
-
- * "git blame -L start,end -- file" misbehaved when given a start that is
- larger than the number of lines in the file.
-
- * "git checkout -m" didn't correctly call custom merge backend supplied
- by the end user.
-
- * "git config -f <file>" misbehaved when run from a subdirectory.
-
- * "git cvsserver" didn't like having regex metacharacters (e.g. '+') in
- CVSROOT environment.
-
- * "git fast-import" did not correctly handle large blobs that may
- bust the pack size limit.
-
- * "git gui" is supposed to work even when launched from inside a .git
- directory.
-
- * "git gui" misbehaved when applying a hunk that ends with deletion.
-
- * "git imap-send" did not honor imap.preformattedHTML as documented.
-
- * "git log" family incorrectly showed the commit notes unconditionally by
- mistake, which was especially irritating when running "git log --oneline".
-
- * "git status" shouldn't require an write access to the repository.
-
- Other minor documentation updates are included.
