11
+UI, Workflows & Features
12
+
13
+ * It was cumbersome to use "GIT_SSH" mechanism when the user wanted
14
+ to pass an extra set of arguments to the underlying ssh. A new
15
+ environment variable GIT_SSH_COMMAND can be used for this.
16
+
17
+ * A request to store an empty note via "git notes" meant to remove
18
+ note from the object but with --allow-empty we will store a
19
+ (surprise!) note that is empty.
20
+
21
+
22
+Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
23
+
24
+ *
25

30
+Fixes since v2.2
31
+----------------
32
+
33
+Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.2 in the maintenance
34
+track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
35
+notes for details).
36
+
37
+ * "git checkout $treeish $path", when $path in the index and the
38
+ working tree already matched what is in $treeish at the $path,
39
+ still overwrote the $path unnecessarily.
40
+ (merge c5326bd jk/checkout-from-tree later to maint).
41
+
42
+ * open() emulated on Windows platforms did not give EISDIR upon
43
+ an attempt to open a directory for writing.
44
+ (merge ba6fad0 js/windows-open-eisdir-error later to maint).
45
+
46
+ * A few code paths used abs() when they should have used labs() on
47
+ long integers.
48
+ (merge 83915ba rs/maint-config-use-labs later to maint).
49
+ (merge 31a8aa1 rs/receive-pack-use-labs later to maint).
50
+
51
+ * "gitweb" used to depend on a behaviour recent CGI.pm deprecated.
52
+ (merge 13dbf46 jk/gitweb-with-newer-cgi-multi-param later to maint).
53
+
54
+ * "git init" (hence "git clone") initialized the per-repository
55
+ configuration file .git/config with x-bit by mistake.
56
+ (merge 1f32ecf mh/config-flip-xbit-back-after-checking later to maint).
