The merge-resolve + strategy created a regular file with conflict markers in it + in place of the symbolic link. The default strategy, + merge-recursive was even more broken. It removed the path + that was pointed at by the symbolic link. Both of these + problems have been fixed. + + - 'git diff maint master next' did not correctly give combined + diff across three trees. + + - 'git fast-import' portability fix for Solaris. + + - 'git show-ref --verify' without arguments did not error out + but segfaulted. + + - 'git diff :tracked-file `pwd`/an-untracked-file' gave an extra + slashes after a/ and b/. + + - 'git format-patch' produced too long filenames if the commit + message had too long line at the beginning. + + - Running 'make all' and then without changing anything + running 'make install' still rebuilt some files. This + was inconvenient when building as yourself and then + installing as root (especially problematic when the source + directory is on NFS and root is mapped to nobody). + + - 'git-rerere' failed to deal with two unconflicted paths that + sorted next to each other. + + - 'git-rerere' attempted to open(2) a symlink and failed if + there was a conflict. Since a conflicting change to a + symlink would not benefit from rerere anyway, the command + now ignores conflicting changes to symlinks. + + - 'git-repack' did not like to pass more than 64 arguments + internally to underlying 'rev-list' logic, which made it + impossible to repack after accumulating many (small) packs + in the repository. + + - 'git-diff' to review the combined diff during a conflicted + merge were not reading the working tree version correctly + when changes to a symbolic link conflicted. It should have + read the data using readlink(2) but read from the regular + file the symbolic link pointed at. + + - 'git-remote' did not like period in a remote's name. + +* Documentation updates + + - added and clarified core.bare, core.legacyheaders configurations. + + - updated "git-clone --depth" documentation. + + +* Assorted git-gui fixes. |
