The latest maintenance release Git 1.7.5.3 is available at the usual places: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ git-1.7.5.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball) git-htmldocs-1.7.5.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) git-manpages-1.7.5.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in: RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.7.5.3-1.fc13.$arch.rpm (RPM) Git v1.7.5.3 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.7.5.2 -------------------- * The bash completion scripts should correctly work using zsh's bash completion emulation layer now. * Setting $(prefix) in config.mak did not affect where etc/gitconfig file is read from, even though passing it from the command line of $(MAKE) did. * The logic to handle "&" (expand to UNIX username) in GECOS field miscounted the length of the name it formatted. * "git cherry-pick -s resolve" failed to cherry-pick a root commit. * "git diff --word-diff" misbehaved when diff.suppress-blank-empty was in effect. * "git log --stdin path" with an input that has additional pathspec used to corrupt memory. * "git send-pack" (hence "git push") over smalt-HTTP protocol could deadlock when the client side pack-object died early. * Compressed tarball gitweb generates used to be made with the timestamp of the tarball generation; this was bad because snapshot from the same tree should result in a same tarball. And other minor fixes and documentation updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.7.5.2 are as follows: Felipe Contreras (1): git-completion: fix regression in zsh support Fraser Tweedale (1): gitweb: supply '-n' to gzip for identical output Jeff King (8): send-pack: unbreak push over stateless rpc cherry-pick: handle root commits with external strategies revert: allow reverting a root commit t3503: test cherry picking and reverting root commits connect: treat generic proxy processes like ssh processes connect: let callers know if connection is a socket send-pack: avoid deadlock on git:// push with failed pack-objects test core.gitproxy configuration Jim Meyering (1): do not read beyond end of malloc'd buffer Johannes Sixt (3): Documentation/format-patch: suggest Toggle Word Wrap add-on for Thunderbird send-pack: avoid deadlock when pack-object dies early Honor $(prefix) set in config.mak* when defining ETC_GIT* Jonathan Nieder (5): Revert "t0081 (line-buffer): add buffering tests" Documentation: explain how to check for patch corruption Documentation: hints for sending patches inline with Thunderbird Documentation: publicize KMail hints for sending patches inline Documentation: publicize hints for sending patches with GMail Junio C Hamano (4): Revert "Honor $(prefix) set in config.mak* when defining ETC_GIT* and sysconfdir" setup_revisions(): take pathspec from command line and --stdin correctly sideband_demux(): fix decl-after-stmt Git 1.7.5.3 Kacper Kornet (1): Honor $(prefix) set in config.mak* when defining ETC_GIT* and sysconfdir Michael J Gruber (2): config.txt,diff-options.txt: porcelain vs. plumbing for color.diff git-svn: Fix git svn log --show-commit Nguyán ThÃi Ngác Duy (1): init/clone: remove short option -L and document --separate-git-dir Rafael Gieschke (1): copy_gecos: fix not adding nlen to len when processing "&" Stefan Sperling (1): remove noise and inaccuracies from git-svn docs -- 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
