+Git v1.8.5.5 Release Notes
2
+==========================
3
+
4
+Fixes since v1.8.5.4
5
+--------------------
6
+
7
+ * The pathspec matching code, while comparing two trees (e.g. "git
8
+ diff A B -- path1 path2") was too aggressive and failed to match
9
+ some paths when multiple pathspecs were involved.
10
+
11
+ * "git repack --max-pack-size=8g" stopped being parsed correctly when
12
+ the command was reimplemented in C.
13
+
14
+ * A recent update to "git send-email" broke platforms where
15
+ /etc/ssl/certs/ directory exists but cannot be used as SSL_ca_path
16
+ (e.g. Fedora rawhide).
17
+
18
+ * A handful of bugs around interpreting $branch@{upstream} notation
19
+ and its lookalike, when $branch part has interesting characters,
20
+ e.g. "@", and ":", have been fixed.
21
+
22
+ * "git clone" would fail to clone from a repository that has a ref
23
+ directly under "refs/", e.g. "refs/stash", because different
24
+ validation paths do different things on such a refname. Loosen the
25
+ client side's validation to allow such a ref.
26
+
27
+ * "git log --left-right A...B" lost the "leftness" of commits
28
+ reachable from A when A is a tag as a side effect of a recent
29
+ bugfix. This is a regression in 1.8.4.x series.
30
+
31
+ * "git merge-base --octopus" used to leave cleaning up suboptimal
32
+ result to the caller, but now it does the clean-up itself.
33
+
34
+ * "git mv A B/", when B does not exist as a directory, should error
35
+ out, but it didn't.
36
+
37
+Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
