+Git v1.8.5.4 Release Notes
2
+==========================
3
+
4
+Fixes since v1.8.5.4
5
+--------------------
6
+
7
+ * "git fetch --depth=0" was a no-op, and was silently ignored.
8
+ Diagnose it as an error.
9
+
10
+ * Remote repository URL expressed in scp-style host:path notation are
11
+ parsed more carefully (e.g. "foo/bar:baz" is local, "[::1]:/~user" asks
12
+ to connect to user's home directory on host at address ::1.
13
+
14
+ * SSL-related options were not passed correctly to underlying socket
15
+ layer in "git send-email".
16
+
17
+ * "git commit -v" appends the patch to the log message before
18
+ editing, and then removes the patch when the editor returned
19
+ control. However, the patch was not stripped correctly when the
20
+ first modified path was a submodule.
21
+
22
+ * "git mv A B/", when B does not exist as a directory, should error
23
+ out, but it didn't.
24
+
25
+ * When we figure out how many file descriptors to allocate for
26
+ keeping packfiles open, a system with non-working getrlimit() could
27
+ cause us to die(), but because we make this call only to get a
28
+ rough estimate of how many is available and we do not even attempt
29
+ to use up all file descriptors available ourselves, it is nicer to
30
+ fall back to a reasonable low value rather than dying.
31
+
32
+ * "git log --decorate" did not handle a tag pointed by another tag
33
+ nicely.
34
+
35
+ * "git add -A" (no other arguments) in a totally empty working tree
36
+ used to emit an error.
37
+
38
+ * There is no reason to have a hardcoded upper limit of the number of
39
+ parents for an octopus merge, created via the graft mechanism, but
40
+ there was.
41
+
42
+ * The implementation of 'git stash $cmd "stash@{...}"' did not quote
43
+ the stash argument properly and left it split at IFS whitespace.
44
+
45
+ * The documentation to "git pull" hinted there is an "-m" option
46
+ because it incorrectly shared the documentation with "git merge".
47
+
48
+Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
