These warning messages have been squelched. - - * We recently rewrote one of the build scripts in Perl, which made it - necessary to have Perl to build Git. Reduced Perl dependency by - rewriting it again using sed. - - * t1509 test that requires a dedicated VM environment had some - bitrot, which has been corrected. - - * strbuf_read() used to have one extra iteration (and an unnecessary - strbuf_grow() of 8kB), which was eliminated. - - * The codepath to produce error messages had a hard-coded limit to - the size of the message, primarily to avoid memory allocation while - calling die(). - - * When trying to see that an object does not exist, a state errno - leaked from our "first try to open a packfile with O_NOATIME and - then if it fails retry without it" logic on a system that refuses - O_NOATIME. This confused us and caused us to die, saying that the - packfile is unreadable, when we should have just reported that the - object does not exist in that packfile to the caller. - - * An off-by-one error made "git remote" to mishandle a remote with a - single letter nickname. - - * A handful of codepaths that used to use fixed-sized arrays to hold - pathnames have been corrected to use strbuf and other mechanisms to - allow longer pathnames without fearing overflows. - -Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code -clean-ups. |
