GIT v1.5.1.2 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.5.1.1 -------------------- * Bugfixes - "git clone" over http from a repository that has lost the loose refs by running "git pack-refs" were broken (a code to deal with this was added to "git fetch" in v1.5.0, but it was missing from "git clone"). - "git diff a/ b/" incorrectly fell in "diff between two filesystem objects" codepath, when the user most likely wanted to limit the extent of output to two tracked directories. - git-quiltimport had the same bug as we fixed for git-applymbox in v1.5.1.1 -- it gave an alarming "did not have any patch" message (but did not actually fail and was harmless). - various git-svn fixes. - Sample update hook incorrectly always refused requests to delete branches through push. - git-blame on a very long working tree path had buffer overrun problem. - git-apply did not like to be fed two patches in a row that created and then modified the same file. - git-svn was confused when a non-project was stored directly under trunk/, branches/ and tags/. - git-svn wants the Error.pm module that was at least as new as what we ship as part of git; install ours in our private installation location if the one on the system is older. - An earlier update to command line integer parameter parser was botched and made 'update-index --cacheinfo' completely useless. * Documentation updates - Various documentation updates from J. Bruce Fields, Frank Lichtenheld, Alex Riesen and others. Andrew Ruder started a war on undocumented options.
