1 +Git v1.7.11.7 Release Notes
2 +===========================
3 +
4 +Fixes since v1.7.11.6
5 +---------------------
6 +
7 + * The synopsis said "checkout [-B branch]" to make it clear the
8 + branch name is a parameter to the option, but the heading for the
9 + option description was "-B::", not "-B branch::", making the
10 + documentation misleading.
11 +
12 + * Git ships with a fall-back regexp implementation for platforms with
13 + buggy regexp library, but it was easy for people to keep using their
14 + platform regexp. A new test has been added to check this.
15 +
16 + * "git apply -p0" did not parse pathnames on "diff --git" line
17 + correctly. This caused patches that had pathnames in no other
18 + places to be mistakenly rejected (most notably, binary patch that
19 + does not rename nor change mode). Textual patches, renames or mode
20 + changes have preimage and postimage pathnames in different places
21 + in a form that can be parsed unambiguously and did not suffer from
22 + this problem.
23 +
24 + * After "gitk" showed the contents of a tag, neither "Reread
25 + references" nor "Reload" did not update what is shown as the
26 + contents of it, when the user overwrote the tag with "git tag -f".
27 +
28 + * "git for-each-ref" did not currectly support more than one --sort
29 + option.
30 +
31 + * "git log .." errored out saying it is both rev range and a path
32 + when there is no disambiguating "--" is on the command line.
33 + Update the command line parser to interpret ".." as a path in such
34 + a case.
35 +
36 + * Pushing to smart HTTP server with recent Git fails without having
37 + the username in the URL to force authentication, if the server is
38 + configured to allow GET anonymously, while requiring authentication
39 + for POST.
40 +
41 + * "git show --format='%ci'" did not give timestamp correctly for
42 + commits created without human readable name on "committer" line.
43 + (merge e27ddb6 jc/maint-ident-missing-human-name later to maint).
44 +
45 + * "git show --quiet" ought to be a synonym for "git show -s", but
46 + wasn't.
