1 +Git v1.7.9 Release Notes (draft)
2 +========================
3 +
4 +Updates since v1.7.8
5 +--------------------
6 +
7 + * Porcelain commands like "git reset" did not distinguish deletions
8 + and type-changes from ordinary modification, and reported them with
9 + the same 'M' moniker. They now use 'D' (for deletion) and 'T' (for
10 + type-change) to match "git status -s" and "git diff --name-status".
11 +
12 + * fsck and prune are relatively lengthy operations that still go
13 + silent while making the end-user wait. They learned to give progress
14 + output like other slow operations.
15 +
16 + * The set of built-in function-header patterns for various languages
17 + knows MATLAB.
18 +
19 +May also contain documentation updates and code clean-ups.
20 +
21 +
22 +Fixes since v1.7.8
23 +------------------
24 +
25 + * In some codepaths (notably, checkout and merge), the ignore patterns
26 + recorded in $GIT_DIR/info/exclude were not honored. They now are.
27 + (merge fc001b5 nd/maint-ignore-exclude later to maint).
