GIT v1.5.1.3 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.5.1.2 -------------------- * Bugfixes - git-add tried to optimize by finding common leading directories across its arguments but botched, causing very confused behaviour. - unofficial rpm.spec file shipped with git was letting ETC_GITCONFIG set to /usr/etc/gitconfig. Tweak the official Makefile to make it harder for distro people to make the same mistake, by setting the variable to /etc/gitconfig if prefix is set to /usr. - git-svn inconsistently stripped away username from the URL only when svnsync_props was in use. - git-svn got confused when handling symlinks on Mac OS. - git-send-email was not quoting recipient names that have period '.' in them. Also it did not allow overriding envelope sender, which made it impossible to send patches to certain subscriber-only lists. - built-in write_tree() routine had a sequence that renamed a file that is still open, which some systems did not like. - when memory is very tight, sliding mmap code to read packfiles incorrectly closed the fd that was still being used to read the pack. - import-tars contributed front-end for fastimport was passing wrong directory modes without checking. - git-fastimport trusted its input too much and allowed to create corrupt tree objects with entries without a name. - git-fetch needlessly barfed when too long reflog action description was given by the caller. Also contains various documentation updates.
