1 Git v1.7.3.3 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.7.3.2
5 --------------------
7 * "git apply" segfaulted when a bogus input is fed to it.
9 * Running "git cherry-pick --ff" on a root commit segfaulted.
11 * "diff", "blame" and friends incorrectly applied textconv filters to
12 symlinks.
14 * Highlighting of whitespace breakage in "diff" output was showing
15 incorrect amount of whitespaces when blank-at-eol is set and the line
16 consisted only of whitespaces and a TAB.
18 * "diff" was overly inefficient when trying to find the line to use for
19 the function header (i.e. equivalent to --show-c-function of GNU diff).
21 * "git imap-send" depends on libcrypto but our build rule relied on the
22 linker to implicitly link it via libssl, which was wrong.
24 * "git merge-file" can be called from within a subdirectory now.
26 * "git repack -f" expanded and recompressed non-delta objects in the
27 existing pack, which was wasteful. Use new "-F" option if you really
28 want to (e.g. when changing the pack.compression level).
30 * "git rev-list --format="...%x00..." incorrectly chopped its output
31 at NUL.
33 * "git send-email" did not correctly remove duplicate mail addresses from
34 the Cc: header that appear on the To: header.
36 * The completion script (in contrib/completion) ignored lightweight tags
37 in __git_ps1().
39 * "git-blame" mode (in contrib/emacs) didn't say (require 'format-spec)
40 even though it depends on it; it didn't work with Emacs 22 or older
41 unless Gnus is used.
43 * "git-p4" (in contrib/) did not correctly handle deleted files.
46 Other minor fixes and documentation updates may be included.
