Git v1.8.3.4 Release Notes ========================== This update is mostly to propagate documentation fixes and test updates from the master front back to the maintenance track. Fixes since v1.8.3.3 -------------------- * The bisect log listed incorrect commits when bisection ends with only skipped ones. * The test coverage framework was left broken for some time. * The test suite for HTTP transport did not run with Apache 2.4. * "git diff" used to fail when core.safecrlf is set and the working tree contents had mixed CRLF/LF line endings. Committing such a content must be prohibited, but "git diff" should help the user to locate and fix such problems without failing. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.8.3.3 are as follows: Dennis Kaarsemaker (2): tests: allow sha1's as part of the path GIT-VERSION-GEN: support non-standard $GIT_DIR path Fraser Tweedale (2): documentation: add git:// transport security notice diff-options: document default similarity index Jeff King (5): t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: do not use LockFile in apache >= 2.4 t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: load extra auth modules in apache 2.4 t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: load compat access module in apache 2.4 t/lib-httpd/apache.conf: configure an MPM module for apache 2.4 lib-httpd/apache.conf: check version only after mod_version loads Johannes Sixt (10): test-chmtime: Fix exit code on Windows t3010: modernize style tests: introduce test_ln_s_add tests: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite (trivial cases) t0000: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite t3030: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite t3100: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite t3509, t4023, t4114: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite t6035: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite t4011: remove SYMLINKS prerequisite Junio C Hamano (7): fetch-options.txt: prevent a wildcard refspec from getting misformatted diff: demote core.safecrlf=true to core.safecrlf=warn t1512: correct leftover constants from earlier edition get_short_sha1(): correctly disambiguate type-limited abbreviation Start preparing for 1.8.3.4 Update draft release notes to 1.8.3.4 Git 1.8.3.4 Kevin Bracey (1): Documentation: Move "git diff <blob> <blob>" Matthieu Moy (2): Documentation/git-push.txt: explain better cases where --force is dangerous Documentation/git-merge.txt: weaken warning about uncommited changes Michael Haggerty (1): lockfile: fix buffer overflow in path handling Namhyung Kim (1): config: Add description of --local option Ondřej Bílka (1): update URL to the marc.info mail archive Phil Hord (1): fix "builtin-*" references to be "builtin/*" Ramkumar Ramachandra (2): column doc: rewrite documentation for column.ui name-rev doc: rewrite --stdin paragraph René Scharfe (9): t5000: integrate export-subst tests into regular tests t5000, t5003: create directories for extracted files lazily t5000: factor out check_tar t5000: use check_tar for prefix test t5000: simplify tar-tree tests t5000: test long filenames read-cache: add simple performance test read-cache: free cache in discard_index use logical OR (||) instead of binary OR (|) in logical context Stefan Beller (4): archive-zip:write_zip_entry: Remove second reset of size variable to zero.
