| 1 | Git v1.7.10.3 Release Notes |
| 2 | =========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v1.7.10.2 |
| 5 | --------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * The message file for German translation has been updated a bit. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | * Running "git checkout" on an unborn branch used to corrupt HEAD. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * When checking out another commit from an already detached state, we |
| 12 | used to report all commits that are not reachable from any of the |
| 13 | refs as lossage, but some of them might be reachable from the new |
| 14 | HEAD, and there is no need to warn about them. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | * Some time ago, "git clone" lost the progress output for its |
| 17 | "checkout" phase; when run without any "--quiet" option, it should |
| 18 | give progress to the lengthy operation. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | * The directory path used in "git diff --no-index", when it recurses |
| 21 | down, was broken with a recent update after v1.7.10.1 release. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | * "log -z --pretty=tformat:..." did not terminate each record with |
| 24 | NUL. The fix is not entirely correct when the output also asks for |
| 25 | --patch and/or --stat, though. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | * The DWIM behaviour for "log --pretty=format:%gd -g" was somewhat |
| 28 | broken and gave undue precedence to configured log.date, causing |
| 29 | "git stash list" to show "stash@{time stamp string}". |
| 30 | |
| 31 | * "git status --porcelain" ignored "--branch" option by mistake. The |
| 32 | output for "git status --branch -z" was also incorrect and did not |
| 33 | terminate the record for the current branch name with NUL as asked. |
| 34 | |
| 35 | * When a submodule repository uses alternate object store mechanism, |
| 36 | some commands that were started from the superproject did not |
| 37 | notice it and failed with "No such object" errors. The subcommands |
| 38 | of "git submodule" command that recursed into the submodule in a |
| 39 | separate process were OK; only the ones that cheated and peeked |
| 40 | directly into the submodule's repository from the primary process |
| 41 | were affected. |
| 42 | |
| 43 | Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates. |
