1 GIT v1.5.6.5 Release Notes
2 ==========================
4 Fixes since v1.5.6.4
5 --------------------
7 * "git cvsimport" used to spit out "UNKNOWN LINE..." diagnostics to stdout.
9 * "git commit -F filename" and "git tag -F filename" run from subdirectories
10 did not read the right file.
12 * "git init --template=" with blank "template" parameter linked files
13 under root directories to .git, which was a total nonsense. Instead, it
14 means "I do not want to use anything from the template directory".
16 * "git diff-tree" and other diff plumbing ignored diff.renamelimit configuration
17 variable when the user explicitly asked for rename detection.
19 * "git name-rev --name-only" did not work when "--stdin" option was in effect.
21 * "git show-branch" mishandled its 8th branch.
23 * Addition of "git update-index --ignore-submodules" that happened during
24 1.5.6 cycle broke "git update-index --ignore-missing".
26 * "git send-email" did not parse charset from an existing Content-type:
27 header properly.
29 Contains other various documentation fixes.
