GIT v1.5.5.1 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.5.5 ------------------ * "git archive --prefix=$path/" mishandled gitattributes. * "git fetch -v" that fetches into FETCH_HEAD did not report the summary the same way as done for updating the tracking refs. * "git svn" misbehaved when the configuration file customized the "git log" output format using format.pretty. * "git submodule status" leaked an unnecessary error message. * "git log --date-order --topo-order" did not override the earlier date-order with topo-order as expected. * "git bisect good $this" did not check the validity of the revision given properly. * "url.<there>.insteadOf" did not work correctly. * "git clean" ran inside subdirectory behaved as if the directory was explicitly specified for removal by the end user from the top level. * "git bisect" from a detached head leaked an unnecessary error message. * "git bisect good $a $b" when $a is Ok but $b is bogus should have atomically failed before marking $a as good. * "git fmt-merge-msg" did not clean up leading empty lines from commit log messages like "git log" family does. * "git am" recorded a commit with empty Subject: line without complaining. * when given a commit log message whose first paragraph consists of multiple lines, "git rebase" squashed it into a single line. * "git remote add $bogus_name $url" did not complain properly. Also comes with various documentation updates.
