1 +Git v2.46 Release Notes
2 +=======================
3 +
4 +Backward Compatibility Notes
5 +
6 + (None at this moment)
7 +
8 +UI, Workflows & Features
9 +
10 + * The "--rfc" option of "git format-patch" learned to take an
11 + optional string value to be used in place of "RFC" to tweak the
12 + "[PATCH]" on the subject header.
13 + (merge ce36894509 jc/format-patch-rfc-more later to maint).
14 +
15 +
16 +Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
17 +
18 + * Advertise "git contacts", a tool for newcomers to find people to
19 + ask review for their patches, a bit more in our developer
20 + documentation.
21 +
22 + * In addition to building the objects needed, try to link the objects
23 + that are used in fuzzer tests, to make sure at least they build
24 + without bitrot, in Linux CI runs.
25 +
26 +
27 +Fixes since v2.45
28 +-----------------
29 +
30 + * "git rebase --signoff" used to forget that it needs to add a
31 + sign-off to the resulting commit when told to continue after a
32 + conflict stops its operation.
33 + (merge a6c2654f83 pw/rebase-m-signoff-fix later to maint).
34 +
35 + * The procedure to build multi-pack-index got confused by the
36 + replace-refs mechanism, which has been corrected by disabling the
37 + latter.
38 + (merge 93e2ae1c95 xx/disable-replace-when-building-midx later to maint).
39 +
40 + * The "-k" and "--rfc" options of "format-patch" will now error out
41 + when used together, as one tells us not to add anything to the
42 + title of the commit, and the other one tells us to add "RFC" in
43 + addition to "PATCH".
44 + (merge cadcf58085 ds/format-patch-rfc-and-k later to maint).
45 +
46 + * "git stash -S" did not handle binary files correctly, which has
47 + been corrected.
48 + (merge 5fb7686409 aj/stash-staged-fix later to maint).
49 +
50 + * A scheduled "git maintenance" job is expected to work on all
51 + repositories it knows about, but it stopped at the first one that
52 + errored out. Now it keeps going.
53 + (merge c75662bfc9 js/for-each-repo-keep-going later to maint).
54 +
55 + * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
