+Git v2.12.1 Release Notes
2
+=========================
3
+
4
+Fixes since v2.12
5
+-----------------
6
+
7
+ * Reduce authentication round-trip over HTTP when the server supports
8
+ just a single authentication method. This also improves the
9
+ behaviour when Git is misconfigured to enable http.emptyAuth
10
+ against a server that does not authenticate without a username
11
+ (i.e. not using Kerberos etc., which makes http.emptyAuth
12
+ pointless).
13
+
14
+ * Windows port wants to use OpenSSL's implementation of SHA-1
15
+ routines, so let them.
16
+
17
+ * Add 32-bit Linux variant to the set of platforms to be tested with
18
+ Travis CI.
19
+
20
+ * When a redirected http transport gets an error during the
21
+ redirected request, we ignored the error we got from the server,
22
+ and ended up giving a not-so-useful error message.
23
+
24
+ * The patch subcommand of "git add -i" was meant to have paths
25
+ selection prompt just like other subcommand, unlike "git add -p"
26
+ directly jumps to hunk selection. Recently, this was broken and
27
+ "add -i" lost the paths selection dialog, but it now has been
28
+ fixed.
29
+
30
+ * Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various
31
+ operations that verify paths given from the user stopped dying when
32
+ seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault.
33
+
34
+ * The code to parse "git log -L..." command line was buggy when there
35
+ are many ranges specified with -L; overrun of the allocated buffer
36
+ has been fixed.
37
+
38
+ * The command-line parsing of "git log -L" copied internal data
39
+ structures using incorrect size on ILP32 systems.
40
+
41
+Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
