| 1 | Git v1.7.6.4 Release Notes |
| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v1.7.6.3 |
| 5 | -------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * The error reporting logic of "git am" when the command is fed a file |
| 8 | whose mail-storage format is unknown was fixed. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | * "git branch --set-upstream @{-1} foo" did not expand @{-1} correctly. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | * "git check-ref-format --print" used to parrot a candidate string that |
| 13 | began with a slash (e.g. /refs/heads/master) without stripping it, to make |
| 14 | the result a suitably normalized string the caller can append to "$GIT_DIR/". |
| 15 | |
| 16 | * "git clone" failed to clone locally from a ".git" file that itself |
| 17 | is not a directory but is a pointer to one. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | * "git clone" from a local repository that borrows from another |
| 20 | object store using a relative path in its objects/info/alternates |
| 21 | file did not adjust the alternates in the resulting repository. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | * "git describe --dirty" did not refresh the index before checking the |
| 24 | state of the working tree files. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | * "git ls-files ../$path" that is run from a subdirectory reported errors |
| 27 | incorrectly when there is no such path that matches the given pathspec. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | * "git mergetool" could loop forever prompting when nothing can be read |
| 30 | from the standard input. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates. |
