The latest maintenance release GIT 1.6.4.2 is available at the usual places: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ git-1.6.4.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball) git-htmldocs-1.6.4.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) git-manpages-1.6.4.2.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in: RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.6.4.2-1.fc9.$arch.rpm (RPM) GIT v1.6.4.2 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.6.4.1 -------------------- * --date=relative output between 1 and 5 years ago rounded the number of years when saying X years Y months ago, instead of rounding it down. * "git add -p" did not handle changes in executable bits correctly (a regression around 1.6.3). * "git apply" did not honor GNU diff's convention to mark the creation/deletion event with UNIX epoch timestamp on missing side. * "git checkout" incorrectly removed files in a directory pointed by a symbolic link during a branch switch that replaces a directory with a symbolic link. * "git clean -d -f" happily descended into a subdirectory that is managed by a separate git repository. It now requires two -f options for safety. * "git fetch/push" over http transports had two rather grave bugs. * "git format-patch --cover-letter" did not prepare the cover letter file for use with non-ASCII strings when there are the series contributors with non-ASCII names. * "git pull origin branch" and "git fetch origin && git merge origin/branch" left different merge messages in the resulting commit. Other minor documentation updates are included. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
