-Git 1.8.1.1 Release Notes
-=========================
-
-Fixes since v1.8.1
-------------------
-
- * The attribute mechanism didn't allow limiting attributes to be
-   applied to only a single directory itself with "path/" like the
-   exclude mechanism does.
-
- * When attempting to read the XDG-style $HOME/.config/git/config and
-   finding that $HOME/.config/git is a file, we gave a wrong error
-   message, instead of treating the case as "a custom config file does
-   not exist there" and moving on.
-
- * After failing to create a temporary file using mkstemp(), failing
-   pathname was not reported correctly on some platforms.
-
- * http transport was wrong to ask for the username when the
-   authentication is done by certificate identity.
-
- * The behaviour visible to the end users was confusing, when they
-   attempt to kill a process spawned in the editor that was in turn
-   launched by Git with SIGINT (or SIGQUIT), as Git would catch that
-   signal and die.  We ignore these signals now.
-
- * A child process that was killed by a signal (e.g. SIGINT) was
-   reported in an inconsistent way depending on how the process was
-   spawned by us, with or without a shell in between.
-
- * After "git add -N" and then writing a tree object out of the
-   index, the cache-tree data structure got corrupted.
-
- * "git apply" misbehaved when fixing whitespace breakages by removing
-   excess trailing blank lines in some corner cases.
-
- * A tar archive created by "git archive" recorded a directory in a
-   way that made NetBSD's implementation of "tar" sometimes unhappy.
-
- * When "git clone --separate-git-dir=$over_there" is interrupted, it
-   failed to remove the real location of the $GIT_DIR it created.
-   This was most visible when interrupting a submodule update.
-
- * "git fetch --mirror" and fetch that uses other forms of refspec
-   with wildcard used to attempt to update a symbolic ref that match
-   the wildcard on the receiving end, which made little sense (the
-   real ref that is pointed at by the symbolic ref would be updated
-   anyway).  Symbolic refs no longer are affected by such a fetch.
-
- * The "log --graph" codepath fell into infinite loop in some
-   corner cases.
-
- * "git merge" started calling prepare-commit-msg hook like "git
-   commit" does some time ago, but forgot to pay attention to the exit
-   status of the hook.
-
- * "git pack-refs" that ran in parallel to another process that
-   created new refs had a race that can lose new ones.
-
- * When a line to be wrapped has a solid run of non space characters
-   whose length exactly is the wrap width, "git shortlog -w" failed
-   to add a newline after such a line.
-
- * The way "git svn" asked for password using SSH_ASKPASS and
-   GIT_ASKPASS was not in line with the rest of the system.
-
- * "gitweb", when sorting by age to show repositories with new
-   activities first, used to sort repositories with absolutely
-   nothing in it early, which was not very useful.
-
- * "gitweb", when sorting by age to show repositories with new
-   activities first, used to sort repositories with absolutely
-   nothing in it early, which was not very useful.
-
- * When autoconf is used, any build on a different commit always ran
-   "config.status --recheck" even when unnecessary.
-
- * Some scripted programs written in Python did not get updated when
-   PYTHON_PATH changed.
-
- * We have been carrying a translated and long-unmaintained copy of an
-   old version of the tutorial; removed.
-
- * Portability issues in many self-test scripts have been addressed.

-Also contains other minor fixes and documentation updates.
