git-filter-repo 2.45 Release Notes
==================================

* Fixes:
  * Work with git >= 2.43 (instead of immediately aborting with an error)

* Backward compatibility
  * Do not create new replace references by default.  Use the --replace-refs
    option to change this, if wanted.

* Usability:
  * Throw an error when users pass `--paths` instead of letting python
    autocomplete to `--paths-from-file` (since users usually intended
    to mean `--path`)
  * Apply commit ID updates after the --message-callback

* Documentation:
  * Update link to GitHub docs on purging data

* Miscellaneous:
  * Add a --date-order option
  * Cleanup callback scope

* Contrib scripts:
  * [convert-svnexternals] fix parsing of wrongly transformed SVN revisions
  * [lint-history] fix --refs option
  * [clean-ignore] handle .gitignore exclusions
  * [clean-ignore] do not require additional arguments to be passed
  * [clean-ignore] support utf-8 filenames found in .gitignore files
