95 Fixes since v1.7.8

96 ------------------

97

109 - * The replacement implemention for snprintf used on platforms with

110 - native snprintf that is broken did not use va_copy correctly.

111 - (merge a9bfbc5 jk/maint-snprintf-va-copy later to maint).

112 -

113 - * git native connection going over TCP (not over SSH) did not set

114 - SO_KEEPALIVE option which failed to receive link layer errors.

115 - (merge e47a858 ew/keepalive later to maint).

116 -

117 - * LF-to-CRLF streaming filter replaced all LF with CRLF, which might

118 - be techinically correct but not friendly to people who are trying

119 - to recover from earlier mistakes of using CRLF in the repository

120 - data in the first place. It now refrains from doing so for LF that

121 - follows a CR.

122 - (merge 8496f56 jc/maint-lf-to-crlf-keep-crlf later to maint).

123 -

124 - * "git checkout -m" did not recreate the conflicted state in a "both

125 - sides added, without any common ancestor version" conflict

126 - situation.

127 - (merge 5cd7fadc jc/checkout-m-twoway later to maint).

128 -

129 - * "git cherry-pick $commit" (not a range) created an unnecessary

130 - sequencer state and interfered with valid workflow to use the

131 - command during a session to cherry-pick multiple commits.

132 - (merge d596118 jn/maint-sequencer-fixes later to maint).

133 -

134 - * You could make "git commit" segfault by giving the "--no-message"

135 - option.

136 - (merge 03f94ae jk/maint-strbuf-missing-init later to maint).

137 -

138 - * "fast-import" did not correctly update an existing notes tree,

139 - possibly corrupting the fan-out.

140 -

141 - * "git fetch-pack" accepted unqualified refs that do not begin with

142 - refs/ by mistake and compensated it by matching the refspec with

143 - tail-match, which was doubly wrong. This broke fetching from a

144 - repository with a funny named ref "refs/foo/refs/heads/master" and a

145 - 'master' branch with "git fetch-pack refs/heads/master", as the

146 - command incorrectly considered the former a "match".

147 - (merge bab8d28 jk/fetch-no-tail-match-refs later to maint).

148 -

149 - * "git mv" gave suboptimal error/warning messages when it overwrites

150 - target files. It also did not pay attention to "-v" option.

151 - (merge 534376c jk/maint-mv later to maint).

152 -

153 - * When a "reword" action in "git rebase -i" failed to run "commit --amend",

154 - we did not give the control back to the user to resolve the situation, and

155 - instead kept the original commit log message.

156 - (merge 0becb3e aw/rebase-i-stop-on-failure-to-amend later to maint).

157 -

158 - * Authenticated "git push" over dumb HTTP were broken with a recent

159 - change and failed without asking for password when username is

160 - given.

161 - (merge a4ddbc3 jk/maint-push-over-dav later to maint).

162 -

163 - * "git push" to an empty repository over HTTP were broken with a

164 - recent change to the ref handling.

165 - (merge 02f7914 jk/http-push-to-empty later to maint).

166 -

167 - * "git push -v" forgot how to be verbose by mistake. It now properly is.

168 - (merge bd2c86e jk/maint-push-v-is-verbose later to maint).
