+Git v1.6.5.4 Release Notes
2
+==========================
3
+
4
+Fixes since v1.6.5.3
5
+--------------------
6
+
7
+ * "git help" (without argument) used to check if you are in a directory
8
+ under git control. There was no breakage in behaviour per-se, but this
9
+ was unnecessary.
10
+
11
+ * "git prune-packed" gave progress output even when its standard error is
12
+ not connected to a terminal; this caused cron jobs that run it to
13
+ produce crufts.
14
+
15
+ * "git pack-objects --all-progress" is an option to ask progress output
16
+ from write-object phase _if_ progress output were to be produced, and
17
+ shouldn't have forced the progress output.
18
+
19
+ * "git apply -p<n> --directory=<elsewhere>" did not work well for a
20
+ non-default value of n.
21
+
22
+ * "git merge foo HEAD" was misparsed as an old-style invocation of the
23
+ command and produced a confusing error message. As it does not specify
24
+ any other branch to merge, it shouldn't be mistaken as such. We will
25
+ remove the old style "git merge <message> HEAD <commit>..." syntax in
26
+ future versions, but not in this release,
27
+
28
+ * "git merge -m <message> <branch>..." added the standard merge message
29
+ on its own after user-supplied message, which should have overrided the
30
+ standard one.
31
+
32
+Other minor documentation updates are included.
