| GIT v1.5.6.3 Release Notes | |
| ========================== | |
| Fixes since v1.5.6.2 | |
| -------------------- | |
| * Setting core.sharedrepository to traditional "true" value was supposed to make | |
| the repository group writable but should not affect permission for others. | |
| However, since 1.5.6, it was broken to drop permission for others when umask is | |
| 022, making the repository unreadable by others. | |
| * Setting GIT_TRACE will report spawning of external process via run_command(). | |
| * Using an object with very deep delta chain pinned memory needed for extracting | |
| intermediate base objects unnecessarily long, leading to excess memory usage. | |
| * Bash completion script did not notice '--' marker on the command | |
| line and tried the relatively slow "ref completion" even when | |
| completing arguments after one. | |
| * Registering a non-empty blob racily and then truncating the working | |
| tree file for it confused "racy-git avoidance" logic into thinking | |
| that the path is now unchanged. | |
| * The section that describes attributes related to git-archive were placed | |
| in a wrong place in the gitattributes(5) manual page. | |
| * "git am" was not helpful to the users when it detected that the committer | |
| information is not set up properly yet. | |
| * "git clone" had a leftover debugging fprintf(). | |
| * "git clone -q" was not quiet enough as it used to and gave object count | |
| and progress reports. | |
| * "git clone" marked downloaded packfile with .keep; this could be a | |
| good thing if the remote side is well packed but otherwise not, | |
| especially for a project that is not really big. | |
| * "git daemon" used to call syslog() from a signal handler, which | |
| could raise signals of its own but generally is not reentrant. This | |
| was fixed by restructuring the code to report syslog() after the handler | |
| returns. | |
| * When "git push" tries to remove a remote ref, and corresponding | |
| tracking ref is missing, we used to report error (i.e. failure to | |
| remove something that does not exist). | |
| * "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") did not handle commit log messages in a | |
| MIME multipart mail correctly. | |
| Contains other various documentation fixes. | |
