7 -We'd need a maint release soon to push out the mkstemp() breakage but not

8 -tonight. There are a handful changes that are in 'master' and 'next' that

9 -need backport/backmerge before 1.5.6.1 happens.

7 +There are a few fixes on 'maint', in addition to futureproofing of "git

8 +shell" so that eventually we can update the ssh clients to ask for server

9 +side programs using "git upload-pack" syntax without a dash between "git"

10 +and the subcommand name.

11

11 -* The 'maint' branch has these fixes since the last announcement.

12 +Many of the medimu size items for 1.6.0 have been merged to 'master'. The

13 +port to MinGW series will also be merged shortly.

17 +GIT v1.6.0 Release Notes (draft)

18 +================================

19 +

20 +User visible changes

21 +--------------------

22 +

23 +With the default Makefile settings, most of the programs are now

24 +installed outside your $PATH, except for "git", "gitk", "git-gui" and

25 +some server side programs that need to be accessible for technical

26 +reasons. Invoking a git subcommand as "git-xyzzy" from the command

27 +line has been deprecated since early 2006 (and officially announced in

28 +1.5.4 release notes); use of them from your scripts after adding

29 +output from "git --exec-path" to the $PATH is still supported in this

30 +release, but users are again strongly encouraged to adjust their

31 +scripts to use "git xyzzy" form, as we will stop installing

32 +"git-xyzzy" hardlinks for built-in commands in later releases.

33 +

34 +Source changes needed for porting to MinGW environment are now all in the

35 +main git.git codebase.

36 +

37 +By default, packfiles created with this version uses delta-base-offset

38 +encoding introduced in v1.4.4. Pack idx files are using version 2 that

39 +allows larger packs and added robustness thanks to its CRC checking,

40 +introduced in v1.5.2.

41 +

42 +

43 +Updates since v1.5.6

44 +--------------------

45 +

46 +(subsystems)

47 +

48 +* git-p4 in contrib learned "allowSubmit" configuration to control on

49 + which branch to allow "submit" subcommand.

50 +

51 +(portability)

52 +

53 +* Sample hook scripts shipped in templates/ are now suffixed with

54 + *.sample. We used to prevent them from triggering by default by

55 + relying on the fact that we install them as unexecutable, but on

56 + some filesystems this approach does not work. Instead of running

57 + "chmod +x" on them, the users who want to activate these samples

58 + as-is can now rename them dropping *.sample suffix.

59 +

60 +* perl's in-place edit (-i) does not work well without backup files on Windows;

61 + some tests are rewritten to cope with this.

62 +

63 +(documentation)

64 +

65 +* Updated howto/update-hook-example

66 +

67 +* Got rid of usage of "git-foo" from the tutorial.

68 +

69 +* Disambiguating "--" between revs and paths is finally documented.

70 +

71 +(performance, robustness, sanity etc.)

72 +

73 +* even more documentation pages are now accessible via "man" and "git help".

74 +

75 +* reduced excessive inlining to shrink size of the "git" binary.

76 +

77 +* verify-pack checks the object CRC when using version 2 idx files.

78 +

79 +* When an object is corrupt in a pack, the object became unusable even

80 + when the same object is available in a loose form, We now try harder to

81 + fall back to these redundant objects when able. In particular, "git

82 + repack -a -f" can be used to fix such a corruption as long as necessary

83 + objects are available.

84 +

85 +* git-clone does not create refs in loose form anymore (it behaves as

86 + if you immediately ran git-pack-refs after cloning). This will help

87 + repositories with insanely large number of refs.

88 +

89 +* core.fsyncobjectfiles configuration can be used to ensure that the loose

90 + objects created will be fsync'ed (this is only useful on filesystems

91 + that does not order data writes properly).

92 +

93 +* "git commit-tree" plumbing can make Octopus with more than 16 parents.

94 + "git commit" has been capable of this for quite some time.

95 +

96 +(usability, bells and whistles)

97 +

98 +* git-apply can handle a patch that touches the same path more than once

99 + much better than before.

100 +

101 +* git-apply can be told not to trust the line counts recorded in the input

102 + patch but recount, with the new --recount option.

103 +

104 +* git-archive can be told to omit certain paths from its output using

105 + export-ignore attributes.

106 +

107 +* git-clone can clone from a remote whose URL would be rewritten by

108 + configuration stored in $HOME/.gitconfig now.

109 +

110 +* git-diff --check now checks leftover merge conflict markers.

111 +

112 +* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now

113 + it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking

114 + branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest

115 + pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set

116 + of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.

117 +

118 +* fast-export learned to export and import marks file; this can be used to

119 + interface with fast-import incrementally.

120 +

121 +* Original SHA-1 value for "update-ref -d" is optional now.

122 +

123 +* git-send-mail can talk not just over SSL but over TLS now.

124 +

125 +* You can tell "git status -u" to even more aggressively omit checking

126 + untracked files with --untracked-files=no.

127 +

128 +* Error codes from gitweb are made more descriptive where possible, rather

129 + than "403 forbidden" as we used to issue everywhere.

130 +

131 +(internal)

132 +

133 +

134 +Fixes since v1.5.6

135 +------------------

136 +

137 +All of the fixes in v1.5.6 maintenance series are included in

138 +this release, unless otherwise noted.

139 +

140 + * diff -c/--cc showed unnecessary "deletion" lines at the context

141 + boundary (needs backmerge to maint).

142 +

143 + * "git-clone <src> <dst>" did not create leading directories for <dst>

144 + like the scripted version used to do (needs backport to maint).

145 +

146 +

147 +----------------------------------------------------------------

148 +

149 +* The 'maint' branch has these fixes since v1.5.6.1.
