GIT v1.6.3.2 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.6.3.1 -------------------- * A few codepaths picked up the first few bytes from an sha1[] by casting the (char *) pointer to (int *); GCC 4.4 did not like this, and aborted compilation. * http-push had a small use-after-free bug. * command completion code in bash did not reliably detect that we are in a bare repository. * "git for-each-ref" had a segfaulting bug when dealing with a tag object created by an ancient git. * Some unlink(2) failures went undiagnosed. * The "recursive" merge strategy misbehaved when faced rename/delete conflicts while coming up with an intermediate merge base. * GIT_TRACE mechanism segfaulted when tracing a shell-quoted aliases. * "git add ." in an empty directory complained that pathspec "." did not match anything, which may be technically correct, but not useful. We silently make it a no-op now. * "git format-patch -k" still added patch numbers if format.numbered configuration was set. * OpenBSD also uses st_ctimspec in "struct stat", instead of "st_ctim". * With NO_CROSS_DIRECTORY_HARDLINKS, "make install" can be told not to create hardlinks between $(gitexecdir)/git-$builtin_commands and $(bindir)/git. * "git push" was converting OFS_DELTA pack representation into less efficient REF_DELTA representation unconditionally upon transfer, making the transferred data unnecessarily larger. Many other general usability updates around help text, diagnostic messages and documentation are included as well. --- exec >/var/tmp/1 O=v1.6.3.1-51-g2a1feb9 echo O=$(git describe maint) git shortlog --no-merges $O..maint
