| 1 | Git v1.8.5.3 Release Notes |
| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v1.8.5.2 |
| 5 | -------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * The "--[no-]informative-errors" options to "git daemon" were parsed |
| 8 | a bit too loosely, allowing any other string after these option |
| 9 | names. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * A "gc" process running as a different user should be able to stop a |
| 12 | new "gc" process from starting. |
| 13 | |
| 14 | * An earlier "clean-up" introduced an unnecessary memory leak to the |
| 15 | credential subsystem. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | * "git mv A B/", when B does not exist as a directory, should error |
| 18 | out, but it didn't. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | * "git rev-parse <revs> -- <paths>" did not implement the usual |
| 21 | disambiguation rules the commands in the "git log" family used in |
| 22 | the same way. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | * "git cat-file --batch=", an admittedly useless command, did not |
| 25 | behave very well. |
| 26 | |
| 27 | Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups. |
