This however did not work well if the repository is set to - be shared with core.sharedRepository and the umask of the previous - user is tighter. They have been made to work better by calling - unlink(2) and retrying after fopen(3) fails with EPERM. - - * Asking gitweb for a nonexistent commit left a warning in the server - log. - - * "git rebase", unlike all other callers of "gc --auto", did not - ignore the exit code from "gc --auto". - - * Many codepaths that run "gc --auto" before exiting kept packfiles - mapped and left the file descriptors to them open, which was not - friendly to systems that cannot remove files that are open. They - now close the packs before doing so. - - * A recent optimization to filter-branch in v2.7.0 introduced a - regression when --prune-empty filter is used, which has been - corrected. - - * The description for SANITY prerequisite the test suite uses has - been clarified both in the comment and in the implementation. - - * "git tag" started listing a tag "foo" as "tags/foo" when a branch - named "foo" exists in the same repository; remove this unnecessary - disambiguation, which is a regression introduced in v2.7.0. - - * The way "git svn" uses auth parameter was broken by Subversion - 1.9.0 and later. - - * The "split" subcommand of "git subtree" (in contrib/) incorrectly - skipped merges when it shouldn't, which was corrected. - - * A few options of "git diff" did not work well when the command was - run from a subdirectory. - - * dirname() emulation has been added, as Msys2 lacks it. - - * The underlying machinery used by "ls-files -o" and other commands - have been taught not to create empty submodule ref cache for a - directory that is not a submodule. This removes a ton of wasted - CPU cycles. - - * Drop a few old "todo" items by deciding that the change one of them - suggests is not such a good idea, and doing the change the other - one suggested to do. - - * Documentation for "git fetch --depth" has been updated for clarity. - - * The command line completion learned a handful of additional options - and command specific syntax. - -Also includes a handful of documentation and test updates. |
