GIT v1.6.2.4 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.6.2.3 -------------------- * The configuration parser had a buffer overflow while parsing an overlong value. * pruning reflog entries that are unreachable from the tip of the ref during "git reflog prune" (hence "git gc") was very inefficient. * "git-add -p" lacked a way to say "q"uit to refuse staging any hunks for the remaining paths. You had to say "d" and then ^C. * "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at the named path; it now does. * "git-fast-export" choked when seeing a tag that does not point at commit. * "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via the --template= option. * "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/", and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't). * "git-merge-recursive" was broken when a submodule entry was involved in a criss-cross merge situation. Many small documentation updates are included as well. --- exec >/var/tmp/1 echo O=$(git describe maint) O=v1.6.2.3-38-g318b847 git shortlog --no-merges $O..maint
