| 1 | GIT v1.6.2.4 Release Notes |
| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v1.6.2.3 |
| 5 | -------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * The configuration parser had a buffer overflow while parsing an overlong |
| 8 | value. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | * pruning reflog entries that are unreachable from the tip of the ref |
| 11 | during "git reflog prune" (hence "git gc") was very inefficient. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | * "git-add -p" lacked a way to say "q"uit to refuse staging any hunks for |
| 14 | the remaining paths. You had to say "d" and then ^C. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | * "git-checkout <tree-ish> <submodule>" did not update the index entry at |
| 17 | the named path; it now does. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | * "git-fast-export" choked when seeing a tag that does not point at commit. |
| 20 | |
| 21 | * "git init" segfaulted when given an overlong template location via |
| 22 | the --template= option. |
| 23 | |
| 24 | * "git-ls-tree" and "git-diff-tree" used a pathspec correctly when |
| 25 | deciding to descend into a subdirectory but they did not match the |
| 26 | individual paths correctly. This caused pathspecs "abc/d ab" to match |
| 27 | "abc/0" ("abc/d" made them decide to descend into the directory "abc/", |
| 28 | and then "ab" incorrectly matched "abc/0" when it shouldn't). |
| 29 | |
| 30 | * "git-merge-recursive" was broken when a submodule entry was involved in |
| 31 | a criss-cross merge situation. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Many small documentation updates are included as well. |
