* "git archive" can be told to pass the output to gzip compression and
produce "archive.tar.gz".
+ * "git bisect" can be used in a bare repository (provided if the test
+ you perform per each iteration does not need a working tree, of
+ course).
+
+ * "git check-attr" can take relative paths from the command line.
+
+ * "git check-attr" learned "--all" option to list the attributes for a
+ given path.
+
* "git checkout" (both the code to update the files upon checking out a
different branch, the code to checkout specific set of files) learned
to stream the data from object store when possible, without having to
* "git diff --stat" learned --stat-count option to limit the output of
diffstat report.
+ * "git diff" learned "--histogram" option, to use a different diff
+ generation machinery stolen from jgit, which might give better
+ performance.
+
* "git fetch", "git push" and friends no longer show connection
errors for addresses that couldn't be connected when at least one
address succeeds (this is arguably a regression but a deliberate
submodule; it now goes on to update other submodules that can be
updated, and reports the ones with errors at the end.
+ * "git upload-pack" and "git receive-pack" learned to pretend only a
+ subset of the refs exist in a repository. This may help a site to
+ put many tiny repositories into one repository (this would not be
+ useful for larger repositories as repacking would be problematic).
+
* "git verify-pack" has been rewritten to use the "index-pack" machinery
that is more efficient in reading objects in packfiles.
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.6.X maintenance track are
included in this release.
- * "git checkout -b <branch>" sometimes wrote a bogus reflog entry,
- causing later "git checkout -" fail.
- (merge 71ee7fd jc/checkout-reflog-fix~1 later).
-
- * "git diff --cc" learned to correctly ignore binary files.
- (merge 0508fe5 jk/combine-diff-binary-etc later)
-
- * "git fast-export" forgot to quote pathnames with unsafe characters
- in its output.
- (merge 6280dfd jk/fast-export-quote-path later)
-
- * "git fetch" did not recurse into submodules in subdirectories.
- (merge ea2d325 jl/maint-fetch-recursive-fix later)
-
- * "git ls-tree" did not error out when asked to show a corrupt tree.
- (merge 04f8925 js/ls-tree-error later)
-
- * "git pull" without any argument left an extra whitespace after the
- command name in its reflog.
- (merge c98d1e4 oa/pull-reflog later)
-
- * "git rebase -i -p" incorrectly dropped commits from side branches.
- (merge 12bf828 aw/rebase-i-p later)
-
- * "git reset [<commit>] paths..." did not reset the index entry correctly
- for unmerged paths.
- (merge ff00b682 jc/maint-reset-unmerged-path later)
-
- * "git submodule add" did not allow a relative repository path when
- the superproject did not have any default remote url.
- (merge f22a17e8 jl/submodule-add-relurl-wo-upstream later)
-
- * "git submodule foreach" failed to correctly give the standard input to
- the user-supplied command it invoked.
- (merge 4dca1aa bc/submodule-foreach-stdin-fix-1.7.4 later)
+ * Error exits from $PAGER were silently ignored.
+ (merge fc1b56f cb/maint-exec-error-report later).
- * "git submodule update --quiet" was not really quiet.
- (merge 7e60407 jl/submodule-update-quiet later)
+ * "git diff -c/--cc" mishandled a deletion that resolves a conflict, and
+ looked in the working tree instead.
+ (merge 9969454 jc/maint-combined-diff-work-tree later).
- * submodules that the user has never showed interest in by running
- "git submodule init" was incorrectly marked as interesting by "git
- submodule sync".
- (merge 2cd9de3 jc/submodule-sync-no-auto-vivify later)
+ * "git fetch" over smart-http transport used to abort when the
+ repository was updated between the initial connection and the
+ subsequent object transfer.
+ (merge 051e400 jc/maint-smart-http-race-upload-pack later).
- * "git tag -l <glob>..." did not take multiple glob patterns from the
- command line.
- (merge 588d0e8 jk/tag-list-multiple-patterns later)
+ * "git push --quiet" was not really quiet.
+ (merge 0d086b8 cb/maint-quiet-push later).
