+Git v1.7.11.6 Release Notes
2
+===========================
3
+
4
+Fixes since v1.7.11.5
5
+---------------------
6
+
7
+This is primarily documentation and low-impact code clarification.
8
+
9
+ - "ciabot" script (in contrib/) has been updated with extensive
10
+ documentation.
11
+
12
+ - The "--rebase" option to "git pull" can be abbreviated to "-r",
13
+ but we didn't document it.
14
+
15
+ - It was generally understood that "--long-option"s to many of our
16
+ subcommands can be abbreviated to the unique prefix, but it was not
17
+ easy to find it described for new readers of the documentation set.
18
+
19
+ - The "--topo-order", "--date-order" (and the lack of either means
20
+ the default order) options to "rev-list" and "log" family of
21
+ commands were poorly described in the documentation.
22
+
23
+ - Older parts of the documentation described as if having a regular
24
+ file in .git/refs/ hierarchy were the only way to have branches and
25
+ tags, which is not true for quite some time.
26
+
27
+ - A utility shell function test_seq has been added as a replacement
28
+ for the 'seq' utility found on some platforms.
29
+
30
+ - Fallback 'getpass' implementation made unportable use of stdio API.
31
+
32
+ - "git commit --amend" let the user edit the log message and then
33
+ died when the human-readable committer name was given
34
+ insufficiently by getpwent(3).
