Fixes since v1.5.3.4
--------------------
+ * Comes with git-gui 0.8.4.
+
* "git-config" silently ignored options after --list; now it will
error out with a usage message.
* "git-add -i" did not handle single line hunks correctly.
- * "git-rebase -i" failed if external diff drivers were used for one
- or more files in a commit. It now avoids calling the external
- diff drivers.
+ * "git-rebase -i" and "git-stash apply" failed if external diff
+ drivers were used for one or more files in a commit. They now
+ avoid calling the external diff drivers.
* "git-log --follow" did not work unless diff generation (e.g. -p)
was also requested.
+ * "git-log --follow -B" did not work at all. Fixed.
+
+ * "git-log -M -B" did not correctly handle cases of very large files
+ being renamed and replaced by very small files in the same commit.
+
* "git-log" printed extra newlines between commits when a diff
was generated internally (e.g. -S or --follow) but not displayed.
* "git-push" error message is more helpful when pushing to a
repository with no matching refs and none specified.
+ * "git-push" now respects + (force push) on wildcard refspecs,
+ matching the behavior of git-fetch.
+
* "git-filter-branch" now updates the working directory when it
has finished filtering the current branch.
* "git-instaweb" no longer fails on Mac OS X.
+ * "git-cvsexportcommit" didn't always create new parent directories
+ before trying to create new child directories. Fixed.
+
+ * "git-fetch" printed a scary (but bogus) error message while
+ fetching a tag that pointed to a tree or blob. The error did
+ not impact correctness, only user perception. The bogus error
+ is no longer printed.
+
+ * "git-ls-files --ignored" did not properly descend into non-ignored
+ directories that themselves contained ignored files if d_type
+ was not supported by the filesystem. This bug impacted systems
+ such as AFS. Fixed.
+
+ * Git segfaulted when reading an invalid .gitattributes file. Fixed.
+
* post-receive-email example hook fixed was fixed for
non-fast-forward updates.
