GIT v1.5.3.5 Release Notes

Fixes since v1.5.3.4

  • Comes with git-gui 0.8.4.

  • "git-config" silently ignored options after --list; now it will error out with a usage message.

  • "git-config --file" failed if the argument used a relative path as it changed directories before opening the file.

  • "git-config --file" now displays a proper error message if it cannot read the file specified on the command line.

  • "git-config", "git-diff", "git-apply" failed if run from a subdirectory with relative GIT_DIR and GIT_WORK_TREE set.

  • "git-blame" crashed if run during a merge conflict.

  • "git-add -i" did not handle single line hunks correctly.

  • "git-rebase -i" and "git-stash apply" failed if external diff drivers were used for one or more files in a commit. They now avoid calling the external diff drivers.

  • "git-log --follow" did not work unless diff generation (e.g. -p) was also requested.

  • "git-log --follow -B" did not work at all. Fixed.

  • "git-log -M -B" did not correctly handle cases of very large files being renamed and replaced by very small files in the same commit.

  • "git-log" printed extra newlines between commits when a diff was generated internally (e.g. -S or --follow) but not displayed.

  • "git-push" error message is more helpful when pushing to a repository with no matching refs and none specified.

  • "git-push" now respects + (force push) on wildcard refspecs, matching the behavior of git-fetch.

  • "git-filter-branch" now updates the working directory when it has finished filtering the current branch.

  • "git-instaweb" no longer fails on Mac OS X.

  • "git-cvsexportcommit" didn’t always create new parent directories before trying to create new child directories. Fixed.

  • "git-fetch" printed a scary (but bogus) error message while fetching a tag that pointed to a tree or blob. The error did not impact correctness, only user perception. The bogus error is no longer printed.

  • "git-ls-files --ignored" did not properly descend into non-ignored directories that themselves contained ignored files if d_type was not supported by the filesystem. This bug impacted systems such as AFS. Fixed.

  • Git segfaulted when reading an invalid .gitattributes file. Fixed.

  • post-receive-email example hook was fixed for non-fast-forward updates.

  • Documentation updates for supported (but previously undocumented) options of "git-archive" and "git-reflog".

  • "make clean" no longer deletes the configure script that ships with the git tarball, making multiple architecture builds easier.

  • "git-remote show origin" spewed a warning message from Perl when no remote is defined for the current branch via branch.<name>.remote configuration settings.

  • Building with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER excessively rebuilt contents of perl/ subdirectory by rewriting perl.mak.

  • http.sslVerify configuration settings were not used in scripted Porcelains.

  • "git-add" leaked a bit of memory while scanning for files to add.

  • A few workarounds to squelch false warnings from recent gcc have been added.

  • "git-send-pack $remote frotz" segfaulted when there is nothing named frotz on the local end.

  • "git-rebase --interactive" did not handle its "--strategy" option properly.
