This - is finally fixed, so that we can move forward with the deprecation. - - * Codepaths that read from an on-disk loose object were too loose in - validating what they are reading is a proper object file and - sometimes read past the data they read from the disk, which has - been corrected. H/t to Gustavo Grieco for reporting. - - * "git worktree", even though it used the default_abbrev setting that - ought to be affected by core.abbrev configuration variable, ignored - the variable setting. The command has been taught to read the - default set of configuration variables to correct this. - - * A low-level function verify_packfile() was meant to show errors - that were detected without dying itself, but under some conditions - it didn't and died instead, which has been fixed. - - * When "git fetch" tries to find where the history of the repository - it runs in has diverged from what the other side has, it has a - mechanism to avoid digging too deep into irrelevant side branches. - This however did not work well over the "smart-http" transport due - to a design bug, which has been fixed. - - * When we started cURL to talk to imap server when a new enough - version of cURL library is available, we forgot to explicitly add - imap(s):// before the destination. To some folks, that didn't work - and the library tried to make HTTP(s) requests instead. - - * The ./configure script generated from configure.ac was taught how - to detect support of SSL by libcurl better. - - * http.emptyauth configuration is a way to allow an empty username to - pass when attempting to authenticate using mechanisms like - Kerberos. We took an unspecified (NULL) username and sent ":" - (i.e. no username, no password) to CURLOPT_USERPWD, but did not do - the same when the username is explicitly set to an empty string. - - * "git clone" of a local repository can be done at the filesystem - level, but the codepath did not check errors while copying and - adjusting the file that lists alternate object stores. - - * Documentation for "git commit" was updated to clarify that "commit - -p <paths>" adds to the current contents of the index to come up - with what to commit. - - * A stray symbolic link in $GIT_DIR/refs/ directory could make name - resolution loop forever, which has been corrected. - - * The "submodule.<name>.path" stored in .gitmodules is never copied - to .git/config and such a key in .git/config has no meaning, but - the documentation described it and submodule.<name>.url next to - each other as if both belong to .git/config. This has been fixed. - - * Recent git allows submodule.<name>.branch to use a special token - "." instead of the branch name; the documentation has been updated - to describe it. - - * In a worktree connected to a repository elsewhere, created via "git - worktree", "git checkout" attempts to protect users from confusion - by refusing to check out a branch that is already checked out in - another worktree. However, this also prevented checking out a - branch, which is designated as the primary branch of a bare - reopsitory, in a worktree that is connected to the bare - repository. The check has been corrected to allow it. - - * "git rebase" immediately after "git clone" failed to find the fork - point from the upstream. - - * When fetching from a remote that has many tags that are irrelevant - to branches we are following, we used to waste way too many cycles - when checking if the object pointed at by a tag (that we are not - going to fetch!) exists in our repository too carefully. - - * The Travis CI configuration we ship ran the tests with --verbose - option but this risks non-TAP output that happens to be "ok" to be - misinterpreted as TAP signalling a test that passed. This resulted - in unnecessary failure. This has been corrected by introducing a - new mode to run our tests in the test harness to send the verbose - output separately to the log file. - - * Some AsciiDoc formatter mishandles a displayed illustration with - tabs in it. Adjust a few of them in merge-base documentation to - work around them. - -Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
