This + was fixed by restructuring the code to report syslog() after the handler + returns. + +* When "git push" tries to remove a remote ref, and corresponding + tracking ref is missing, we used to report error (i.e. failure to + remove something that does not exist). + +* "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") did not handle commit log messages in a + MIME multipart mail correctly. + +Contains other various documentation fixes. |
