The latter has been updated + to match the behaviour of the former. + + * "git archive", especially when used with pathspec, stored an empty + directory in its output, even though Git itself never does so. + This has been fixed. + + * API error-proofing which happens to also squelch warnings from GCC. + + * "git gc" tries to avoid running two instances at the same time by + reading and writing pid/host from and to a lock file; it used to + use an incorrect fscanf() format when reading, which has been + corrected. + + * The test linter has been taught that we do not like "echo -e". + + * Code cmp.std.c nitpick. + + * "git describe --match" learned to take multiple patterns in v2.13 + series, but the feature ignored the patterns after the first one + and did not work at all. This has been fixed. + + * "git cat-file --textconv" started segfaulting recently, which + has been corrected. + + * The built-in pattern to detect the "function header" for HTML did + not match <H1>..<H6> elements without any attributes, which has + been fixed. + + * "git mailinfo" was loose in decoding quoted printable and produced + garbage when the two letters after the equal sign are not + hexadecimal. This has been fixed. + + * The documentation for '-X<option>' for merges was misleadingly + written to suggest that "-s theirs" exists, which is not the case. + + * Spell the name of our system as "Git" in the output from + request-pull script. + + * Fixes for a handful memory access issues identified by valgrind. + + * Backports a moral equivalent of 2015 fix to the poll emulation from + the upstream gnulib to fix occasional breakages on HPE NonStop. + + * In the "--format=..." option of the "git for-each-ref" command (and + its friends, i.e. the listing mode of "git branch/tag"), "%(atom:)" + (e.g. "%(refname:)", "%(body:)" used to error out. Instead, treat + them as if the colon and an empty string that follows it were not + there. + + * Users with "color.ui = always" in their configuration were broken + by a recent change that made plumbing commands to pay attention to + them as the patch created internally by "git add -p" were colored + (heh) and made unusable. This has been fixed. + + * "git branch -M a b" while on a branch that is completely unrelated + to either branch a or branch b misbehaved when multiple worktree + was in use. This has been fixed. + + * "git fast-export" with -M/-C option issued "copy" instruction on a + path that is simultaneously modified, which was incorrect. + + * The checkpoint command "git fast-import" did not flush updates to + refs and marks unless at least one object was created since the + last checkpoint, which has been corrected, as these things can + happen without any new object getting created. + + * The scripts to drive TravisCI has been reorganized and then an + optimization to avoid spending cycles on a branch whose tip is + tagged has been implemented. + + * "git fetch <there> <src>:<dst>" allows an object name on the <src> + side when the other side accepts such a request since Git v2.5, but + the documentation was left stale. + + * A regression in 2.11 that made the code to read the list of + alternate object stores overrun the end of the string has been + fixed. + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
