A maintenance release Git v2.4.8 is now available at the usual places. This contains remaining fixes that are in v2.5 but have been lacking in 2.4.x maintenance track so far. It will hopefully be the last 2.4.x update at least for now. The tarballs are found at: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.4.8' tag and some of them have the 'maint-2.4' branch that the tag points at: url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git url = https://code.google.com/p/git-core/ url = git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git url = git://git-core.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/git-core/git-core url = https://github.com/gitster/git ---------------------------------------------------------------- Git v2.4.8 Release Notes ======================== Fixes since v2.4.7 ------------------ * Abandoning an already applied change in "git rebase -i" with "--continue" left CHERRY_PICK_HEAD and confused later steps. * Various fixes around "git am" that applies a patch to a history that is not there yet. * "git for-each-ref" reported "missing object" for 0{40} when it encounters a broken ref. The lack of object whose name is 0{40} is not the problem; the ref being broken is. * "git commit --cleanup=scissors" was not careful enough to protect against getting fooled by a line that looked like scissors. Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v2.4.7 are as follows: Johannes Schindelin (2): t3404: demonstrate CHERRY_PICK_HEAD bug rebase -i: do not leave a CHERRY_PICK_HEAD file behind Junio C Hamano (1): Git 2.4.8 Michael Haggerty (4): t6301: new tests of for-each-ref error handling for-each-ref: report broken references correctly read_loose_refs(): simplify function logic read_loose_refs(): treat NULL_SHA1 loose references as broken Paul Tan (6): am --skip: revert changes introduced by failed 3way merge am -3: support 3way merge on unborn branch am --skip: support skipping while on unborn branch am --abort: revert changes introduced by failed 3way merge am --abort: support aborting to unborn branch am --abort: keep unrelated commits on unborn branch SZEDER Gábor (2): completion: teach 'scissors' mode to 'git commit --cleanup=' commit: cope with scissors lines in commit message Sebastian Schuberth (1): clone: simplify string handling in guess_dir_name() -- 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
