This has been + tightened to reject such a request that causes overlong path to be + required to serve. + + * Recent update to git-sh-setup (a library of shell functions that + are used by our in-tree scripted Porcelain commands) included + another shell library git-sh-i18n without specifying where it is, + relying on the $PATH. This has been fixed to be more explicit by + prefixing $(git --exec-path) output in front. + + * Fix for a racy false-positive test failure. + + * Portability update and workaround for builds on recent Mac OS X. + + * Update to the test framework made in 2.9 timeframe broke running + the tests under valgrind, which has been fixed. + + * Improve the rule to convert "unsigned char [20]" into "struct + object_id *" in contrib/coccinelle/ + + * "git-shell" rejects a request to serve a repository whose name + begins with a dash, which makes it no longer possible to get it + confused into spawning service programs like "git-upload-pack" with + an option like "--help", which in turn would spawn an interactive + pager, instead of working with the repository user asked to access + (i.e. the one whose name is "--help"). + +Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
