Git v1.7.8.4 Release Notes
Fixes since v1.7.8.3
-
The code to look up attributes for paths reused entries from a wrong
directory when two paths in question are in adjacent directories and
the name of the one directory is a prefix of the other. -
A wildcard that matches deeper hierarchy given to the “diff-index” command,
e.g. “git diff-index HEAD — *.txt“, incorrectly reported additions of
matching files even when there is no change. -
When producing a “thin pack” (primarily used in bundles and smart
HTTP transfers) out of a fully packed repository, we unnecessarily
avoided sending recent objects as a delta against objects we know
the other side has. -
“git send-email” did not properly treat sendemail.multiedit as a
boolean (e.g. setting it to “false” did not turn it off).
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
Changes since v1.7.8.3 are as follows: Jeff King (5): send-email: multiedit is a boolean config option attr: don't confuse prefixes with leading directories attr: drop misguided defensive coding attr: fix leak in free_attr_elem thin-pack: try harder to use preferred base objects as base Junio C Hamano (11): attr.c: make bootstrap_attr_stack() leave early attr.c: clarify the logic to pop attr_stack Documentation: rerere's rr-cache auto-creation and rerere.enabled Prepare for 1.7.6.6 Prepare for 1.7.7.6 Prepare for 1.7.8.4 Update draft release notes to 1.7.6.6 Update draft release notes to 1.7.7.6 Update draft release notes to 1.7.8.4 Git 1.7.7.6 Git 1.7.8.4 Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy (2): t2203: fix wrong commit command diff-index: enable recursive pathspec matching in unpack_trees
