| 1 | Git v2.4.5 Release Notes |
| 2 | ======================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v2.4.4 |
| 5 | ------------------ |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * The setup code used to die when core.bare and core.worktree are set |
| 8 | inconsistently, even for commands that do not need working tree. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | * There was a dead code that used to handle "git pull --tags" and |
| 11 | show special-cased error message, which was made irrelevant when |
| 12 | the semantics of the option changed back in Git 1.9 days. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | * "color.diff.plain" was a misnomer; give it 'color.diff.context' as |
| 15 | a more logical synonym. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | * The configuration reader/writer uses mmap(2) interface to access |
| 18 | the files; when we find a directory, it barfed with "Out of memory?". |
| 19 | |
| 20 | * Recent "git prune" traverses young unreachable objects to safekeep |
| 21 | old objects in the reachability chain from them, which sometimes |
| 22 | showed unnecessary error messages that are alarming. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | * "git rebase -i" fired post-rewrite hook when it shouldn't (namely, |
| 25 | when it was told to stop sequencing with 'exec' insn). |
| 26 | |
| 27 | Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code |
| 28 | clean-ups. |
