(exclamation), + which may confuse users to expect a "negative match", which does + not exist. This has been demoted to a warning; such an entry is + still ignored. + + * "git apply --summary" has been taught to make sure the similarity + value shown in its output is sensible, even when the input had a + bogus value. + + * "git clean" showed what it was going to do, but sometimes ended + up finding that it was not allowed to do so, which resulted in a + confusing output (e.g. after saying that it will remove an + untracked directory, it found an embedded git repository there + which it is not allowed to remove). It now performs the actions + and then reports the outcome more faithfully. + + * "git clone" used to allow --bare and --separate-git-dir=$there + options at the same time, which was nonsensical. + + * "git cvsimport" mishandled timestamps at DST boundary. + + * We used to have an arbitrary 32 limit for combined diff input, + resulting in incorrect number of leading colons shown when showing + the "--raw --cc" output. + + * The smart HTTP clients forgot to verify the content-type that comes + back from the server side to make sure that the request is being + handled properly. + + * "git help remote-helpers" failed to find the documentation. + + * "gitweb" pages served over HTTPS, when configured to show picon or + gravatar, referred to these external resources to be fetched via + HTTP, resulting in mixed contents warning in browsers. + +Also contains various documentation fixes. |
