Git v2.3.10 Release Notes | ||
========================= | ||
|
||
Fixes since v2.3.9 | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
* xdiff code we use to generate diffs is not prepared to handle | ||
extremely large files. It uses "int" in many places, which can | ||
overflow if we have a very large number of lines or even bytes in | ||
our input files, for example. Cap the input size to soemwhere | ||
around 1GB for now. | ||
|
||
* Some protocols (like git-remote-ext) can execute arbitrary code | ||
found in the URL. The URLs that submodules use may come from | ||
arbitrary sources (e.g., .gitmodules files in a remote | ||
repository), and can hurt those who blindly enable recursive | ||
fetch. Restrict the allowed protocols to well known and safe | ||
ones. |

Git v2.6.2 Release Notes | ||
======================== | ||
|
||
Fixes since v2.6.1 | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
* There were some classes of errors that "git fsck" diagnosed to its | ||
standard error that did not cause it to exit with non-zero status. | ||
|
||
* A test script for the HTTP service had a timing dependent bug, | ||
which was fixed. | ||
|
||
* Performance-measurement tests did not work without an installed Git. | ||
|
||
* On a case insensitive filesystems, setting GIT_WORK_TREE variable | ||
using a random cases that does not agree with what the filesystem | ||
thinks confused Git that it wasn't inside the working tree. | ||
|
||
* When "git am" was rewritten as a built-in, it stopped paying | ||
attention to user.signingkey, which was fixed. | ||
|
||
* After "git checkout --detach", "git status" reported a fairly | ||
useless "HEAD detached at HEAD", instead of saying at which exact | ||
commit. | ||
|
||
* "git rebase -i" had a minor regression recently, which stopped | ||
considering a line that begins with an indented '#' in its insn | ||
sheet not a comment, which is now fixed. | ||
|
||
* Description of the "log.follow" configuration variable in "git log" | ||
documentation is now also copied to "git config" documentation. | ||
|
||
* Allocation related functions and stdio are unsafe things to call | ||
inside a signal handler, and indeed killing the pager can cause | ||
glibc to deadlock waiting on allocation mutex as our signal handler | ||
tries to free() some data structures in wait_for_pager(). Reduce | ||
these unsafe calls. | ||
|
||
* The way how --ref/--notes to specify the notes tree reference are | ||
DWIMmed was not clearly documented. | ||
|
||
* Customization to change the behaviour with "make -w" and "make -s" | ||
in our Makefile was broken when they were used together. | ||
|
||
* The Makefile always runs the library archiver with hardcoded "crs" | ||
options, which was inconvenient for exotic platforms on which | ||
people want to use programs with totally different set of command | ||
line options. | ||
|
||
* The ssh transport, just like any other transport over the network, | ||
did not clear GIT_* environment variables, but it is possible to | ||
use SendEnv and AcceptEnv to leak them to the remote invocation of | ||
Git, which is not a good idea at all. Explicitly clear them just | ||
like we do for the local transport. | ||
|
||
* "git blame --first-parent v1.0..v2.0" was not rejected but did not | ||
limit the blame to commits on the first parent chain. | ||
|
||
* Very small number of options take a parameter that is optional | ||
(which is not a great UI element as they can only appear at the end | ||
of the command line). Add notice to documentation of each and | ||
every one of them. | ||
|
||
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code | ||
clean-ups. |

Git v2.6.3 Release Notes | ||
======================== | ||
|
||
Fixes since v2.6.2 | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
* The error message from "git blame --contents --reverse" incorrectly | ||
talked about "--contents --children". | ||
|
||
* "git merge-file" tried to signal how many conflicts it found, which | ||
obviously would not work well when there are too many of them. | ||
|
||
* The name-hash subsystem that is used to cope with case insensitive | ||
filesystems keeps track of directories and their on-filesystem | ||
cases for all the paths in the index by holding a pointer to a | ||
randomly chosen cache entry that is inside the directory (for its | ||
ce->ce_name component). This pointer was not updated even when the | ||
cache entry was removed from the index, leading to use after free. | ||
This was fixed by recording the path for each directory instead of | ||
borrowing cache entries and restructuring the API somewhat. | ||
|
||
* When the "git am" command was reimplemented in C, "git am -3" had a | ||
small regression where it is aborted in its error handling codepath | ||
when underlying merge-recursive failed in some ways. | ||
|
||
* The synopsis text and the usage string of subcommands that read | ||
list of things from the standard input are often shown as if they | ||
only take input from a file on a filesystem, which was misleading. | ||
|
||
* A couple of commands still showed "[options]" in their usage string | ||
to note where options should come on their command line, but we | ||
spell that "[<options>]" in most places these days. | ||
|
||
* The submodule code has been taught to work better with separate | ||
work trees created via "git worktree add". | ||
|
||
* When "git gc --auto" is backgrounded, its diagnosis message is | ||
lost. It now is saved to a file in $GIT_DIR and is shown next time | ||
the "gc --auto" is run. | ||
|
||
* Work around "git p4" failing when the P4 depot records the contents | ||
in UTF-16 without UTF-16 BOM. | ||
|
||
* Recent update to "rebase -i" that tries to sanity check the edited | ||
insn sheet before it uses it has become too picky on Windows where | ||
CRLF left by the editor is turned into a trailing CR on the line | ||
read via the "read" built-in command. | ||
|
||
* "git clone --dissociate" runs a big "git repack" process at the | ||
end, and it helps to close file descriptors that are open on the | ||
packs and their idx files before doing so on filesystems that | ||
cannot remove a file that is still open. | ||
|
||
* Correct "git p4 --detect-labels" so that it does not fail to create | ||
a tag that points at a commit that is also being imported. | ||
|
||
* The internal stripspace() function has been moved to where it | ||
logically belongs to, i.e. strbuf API, and the command line parser | ||
of "git stripspace" has been updated to use the parse_options API. | ||
|
||
* Prepare for Git on-disk repository representation to undergo | ||
backward incompatible changes by introducing a new repository | ||
format version "1", with an extension mechanism. | ||
|
||
* "git gc" used to barf when a symbolic ref has gone dangling | ||
(e.g. the branch that used to be your upstream's default when you | ||
cloned from it is now gone, and you did "fetch --prune"). | ||
|
||
* The normalize_ceiling_entry() function does not muck with the end | ||
of the path it accepts, and the real world callers do rely on that, | ||
but a test insisted that the function drops a trailing slash. | ||
|
||
* "git gc" is safe to run anytime only because it has the built-in | ||
grace period to protect young objects. In order to run with no | ||
grace period, the user must make sure that the repository is | ||
quiescent. | ||
|
||
* A recent "filter-branch --msg-filter" broke skipping of the commit | ||
object header, which is fixed. | ||
|
||
* "git --literal-pathspecs add -u/-A" without any command line | ||
argument misbehaved ever since Git 2.0. | ||
|
||
* Merging a branch that removes a path and another that changes the | ||
mode bits on the same path should have conflicted at the path, but | ||
it didn't and silently favoured the removal. | ||
|
||
* "git imap-send" did not compile well with older version of cURL library. | ||
|
||
* The linkage order of libraries was wrong in places around libcurl. | ||
|
||
* It was not possible to use a repository-lookalike created by "git | ||
worktree add" as a local source of "git clone". | ||
|
||
* When "git send-email" wanted to talk over Net::SMTP::SSL, | ||
Net::Cmd::datasend() did not like to be fed too many bytes at the | ||
same time and failed to send messages. Send the payload one line | ||
at a time to work around the problem. | ||
|
||
* We peek objects from submodule's object store by linking it to the | ||
list of alternate object databases, but the code to do so forgot to | ||
correctly initialize the list. | ||
|
||
* "git status --branch --short" accessed beyond the constant string | ||
"HEAD", which has been corrected. | ||
|
||
* "git daemon" uses "run_command()" without "finish_command()", so it | ||
needs to release resources itself, which it forgot to do. | ||
|
||
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code | ||
clean-ups. |

Git v2.6.4 Release Notes | ||
======================== | ||
|
||
Fixes since v2.6.3 | ||
------------------ | ||
|
||
* The "configure" script did not test for -lpthread correctly, which | ||
upset some linkers. | ||
|
||
* Add support for talking http/https over socks proxy. | ||
|
||
* Portability fix for Windows, which may rewrite $SHELL variable using | ||
non-POSIX paths. | ||
|
||
* We now consistently allow all hooks to ignore their standard input, | ||
rather than having git complain of SIGPIPE. | ||
|
||
* Fix shell quoting in contrib script. | ||
|
||
* Test portability fix for a topic in v2.6.1. | ||
|
||
* Allow tilde-expansion in some http config variables. | ||
|
||
* Give a useful special case "diff/show --word-diff-regex=." as an | ||
example in the documentation. | ||
|
||
* Fix for a corner case in filter-branch. | ||
|
||
* Make git-p4 work on a detached head. | ||
|
||
* Documentation clarification for "check-ignore" without "--verbose". | ||
|
||
* Just like the working tree is cleaned up when the user cancelled | ||
submission in P4Submit.applyCommit(), clean up the mess if "p4 | ||
submit" fails. | ||
|
||
* Having a leftover .idx file without corresponding .pack file in | ||
the repository hurts performance; "git gc" learned to prune them. | ||
|
||
* The code to prepare the working tree side of temporary directory | ||
for the "dir-diff" feature forgot that symbolic links need not be | ||
copied (or symlinked) to the temporary area, as the code already | ||
special cases and overwrites them. Besides, it was wrong to try | ||
computing the object name of the target of symbolic link, which may | ||
not even exist or may be a directory. | ||
|
||
* There was no way to defeat a configured rebase.autostash variable | ||
from the command line, as "git rebase --no-autostash" was missing. | ||
|
||
* Allow "git interpret-trailers" to run outside of a Git repository. | ||
|
||
* Produce correct "dirty" marker for shell prompts, even when we | ||
are on an orphan or an unborn branch. | ||
|
||
* Some corner cases have been fixed in string-matching done in "git | ||
status". | ||
|
||
* Apple's common crypto implementation of SHA1_Update() does not take | ||
more than 4GB at a time, and we now have a compile-time workaround | ||
for it. | ||
|
||
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code | ||
clean-ups. |
Oops, something went wrong.
