All messages will be sent + as a reply to the first message, i.e. cover letter. + + It has been possible to configure send-email to send "shallow thread" + by setting sendemail.chainreplyto configuration variable to false. The + only thing this release does is to change the default when you haven't + configured that variable. + + * "git status" is not "git commit --dry-run" anymore. This change does + not affect you if you run the command without pathspec. + + * "git diff" traditionally treated various "ignore whitespace" options + only as a way to filter the patch output. "git diff --exit-code -b" + exited with non-zero status even if all changes were about changing the + ammount of whitespace and nothing else. and "git diff -b" showed the + "diff --git" header line for such a change without patch text. + + In this release, the "ignore whitespaces" options affect the semantics + of the diff operation. A change that does not affect anything but + whitespaces is reported with zero exit status when run with + --exit-code, and there is no "diff --git" header for such a change. + + +Updates since v1.6.6 +-------------------- + +(subsystems) + +(portability) + +(performance) + +(usability, bells and whistles) + + +Fixes since v1.6.6 +------------------ + +All of the fixes in v1.6.6.X maintenance series are included in this +release, unless otherwise noted. + +-- +exec >/var/tmp/1 +O=v1.6.6-27-g648f407 +echo O=$(git describe master) +git shortlog --no-merges $O..master ^maint diff --git a/GIT-VERSION-GEN b/GIT-VERSION-GEN index 1628d986fe..a7d8c63427 100755 --- a/GIT-VERSION-GEN +++ b/GIT-VERSION-GEN @@ -1,7 +1,7 @@ #!/bin/sh GVF=GIT-VERSION-FILE -DEF_VER=v1.6.6 +DEF_VER=v1.6.6.GIT LF=' ' @@ -1 +1 @@ -Documentation/RelNotes-1.6.6.txt
