Fixes since v1.8.2
5
------------------
6
7
+ * Verification of signed tags were not done correctly when not in C
8
+ or en/US locale.
9
+
10
+ * 'git commit -m "$msg"' used to add an extra newline even when
11
+ $msg already ended with one.
12
+
13
+ * The "--match=<pattern>" option of "git describe", when used with
14
+ "--all" to allow refs that are not annotated tags to be used as a
15
+ base of description, did not restrict the output from the command
16
+ to those that match the given pattern.
17
+
18
+ * An aliased command spawned from a bare repository that does not say
19
+ it is bare with "core.bare = yes" is treated as non-bare by mistake.
20
+
21
+ * When "format-patch" quoted a non-ascii strings on the header files,
22
+ it incorrectly applied rfc2047 and chopped a single character in
23
+ the middle of it.
24
+
25
+ * "git archive" reports a failure when asked to create an archive out
26
+ of an empty tree. It would be more intuitive to give an empty
27
+ archive back in such a case.
28
+
29
+ * "git tag -f <tag>" always said "Updated tag '<tag>'" even when
30
+ creating a new tag (i.e. not overwriting nor updating).
31
+
32
+ * "git cmd -- ':(top'" was not diagnosed as an invalid syntax, and
33
+ instead the parser kept reading beyond the end of the string.
34
+
35
+ * Annotated tags outside refs/tags/ hierarchy were not advertised
36
+ correctly to the ls-remote and fetch with recent version of Git.
37
+
38
+ * The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
39
+ platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon a
40
+ hash collision between these pathnames and looped forever.
41
+
42
* The logic used by "git diff -M --stat" to shorten the names of
43
files before and after a rename did not work correctly when the
44
common prefix and suffix between the two filenames overlapped.
