Disable optimizations + based on its use (and updating existing commit-graph) when these + incompatible features are in use in the repository. + + * The mailmap file update. + + * The code in "git status" sometimes hit an assertion failure. This + was caused by a structure that was reused without cleaning the data + used for the first run, which has been corrected. + + * A corner-case bugfix. + + * A partial clone that is configured to lazily fetch missing objects + will on-demand issue a "git fetch" request to the originating + repository to fill not-yet-obtained objects. The request has been + optimized for requesting a tree object (and not the leaf blob + objects contained in it) by telling the originating repository that + no blobs are needed. + + * The codepath to support the experimental split-index mode had + remaining "racily clean" issues fixed. + + * "git log --graph" showing an octopus merge sometimes miscounted the + number of display columns it is consuming to show the merge and its + parent commits, which has been corrected. + + * The implementation of run_command() API on the UNIX platforms had a + bug that caused a command not on $PATH to be found in the current + directory. + + * A mutex used in "git pack-objects" were not correctly initialized + and this caused "git repack" to dump core on Windows. + + * Under certain circumstances, "git diff D:/a/b/c D:/a/b/d" on + Windows would strip initial parts from the paths because they + were not recognized as absolute, which has been corrected. + + * The receive.denyCurrentBranch=updateInstead codepath kicked in even + when the push should have been rejected due to other reasons, such + as it does not fast-forward or the update-hook rejects it, which + has been corrected. + + * "git repack" in a shallow clone did not correctly update the + shallow points in the repository, leading to a repository that + does not pass fsck. + + * Operations on promisor objects make sense in the context of only a + small subset of the commands that internally use the revisions + machinery, but the "--exclude-promisor-objects" option were taken + and led to nonsense results by commands like "log", to which it + didn't make much sense. This has been corrected. + + * The "container" mode of TravisCI is going away. Our .travis.yml + file is getting prepared for the transition. + + * Our test scripts can now take the '-V' option as a synonym for the + '--verbose-log' option. + + * A regression in Git 2.12 era made "git fsck" fall into an infinite + loop while processing truncated loose objects. + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
