| 1 | Git v1.8.0.2 Release Notes |
| 2 | ========================== |
| 3 | |
| 4 | Fixes since v1.8.0.1 |
| 5 | -------------------- |
| 6 | |
| 7 | * Various codepaths have workaround for a common misconfiguration to |
| 8 | spell "UTF-8" as "utf8", but it was not used uniformly. Most |
| 9 | notably, mailinfo (which is used by "git am") lacked this support. |
| 10 | |
| 11 | * We failed to mention a file without any content change but whose |
| 12 | permission bit was modified, or (worse yet) a new file without any |
| 13 | content in the "git diff --stat" output. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for binary contents, the total |
| 16 | number of added and removed lines at the bottom was computed |
| 17 | incorrectly. |
| 18 | |
| 19 | * When "--stat-count" hides a diffstat for unmerged paths, the total |
| 20 | number of affected files at the bottom of the "diff --stat" output |
| 21 | was computed incorrectly. |
| 22 | |
| 23 | * "diff --shortstat" miscounted the total number of affected files |
| 24 | when there were unmerged paths. |
| 25 | |
| 26 | * "git p4" used to try expanding malformed "$keyword$" that spans |
| 27 | across multiple lines. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | * "git update-ref -d --deref SYM" to delete a ref through a symbolic |
| 30 | ref that points to it did not remove it correctly. |
| 31 | |
| 32 | * Syntax highlighting in "gitweb" was not quite working. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates. |
