Git v2.14.3 Release Notes
=========================
Fixes since v2.14.2
-------------------
* A helper function to read a single whole line into strbuf
mistakenly triggered OOM error at EOF under certain conditions,
which has been fixed.
* In addition to "cc: <a@dd.re.ss> # cruft", "cc: a@dd.re.ss # cruft"
was taught to "git send-email" as a valid way to tell it that it
needs to also send a carbon copy to <a@dd.re.ss> in the trailer
section.
* Fix regression to "gitk --bisect" by a recent update.
* Unlike "git commit-tree < file", "git commit-tree -F file" did not
pass the contents of the file verbatim and instead completed an
incomplete line at the end, if exists. 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.
