| 1 | GIT v1.6.0.6 Release Notes |
| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since 1.6.0.5 |
| 5 | ------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * "git fsck" had a deep recursion that wasted stack space. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | * "git fast-export" and "git fast-import" choked on an old style |
| 10 | annotated tag that lack the tagger information. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | * "git mergetool -- file" did not correctly skip "--" marker that |
| 13 | signals the end of options list. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | * "git show $tag" segfaulted when an annotated $tag pointed at a |
| 16 | nonexistent object. |
| 17 | |
| 18 | * "git show 2>error" when the standard output is automatically redirected |
| 19 | to the pager redirected the standard error to the pager as well; there |
| 20 | was no need to. |
| 21 | |
| 22 | * "git send-email" did not correctly handle list of addresses when |
| 23 | they had quoted comma (e.g. "Lastname, Givenname" <mail@addre.ss>). |
| 24 | |
| 25 | * Logic to discover branch ancestry in "git svn" was unreliable when |
| 26 | the process to fetch history was interrupted. |
| 27 | |
| 28 | * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose |
| 29 | implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing, |
| 30 | which would have run an external diff command specified in the |
| 31 | repository configuration as the gitweb user. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Also contains numerous documentation typofixes. |
