The latest maintenance release GIT 1.5.6.5 is available at the usual places: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ git-1.5.6.5.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball) git-htmldocs-1.5.6.5.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) git-manpages-1.5.6.5.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are also provided as courtesy. RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.5.6.5-1.fc9.$arch.rpm (RPM) GIT v1.5.6.5 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.5.6.4 -------------------- * "git cvsimport" used to spit out "UNKNOWN LINE..." diagnostics to stdout. * "git commit -F filename" and "git tag -F filename" run from subdirectories did not read the right file. * "git init --template=" with blank "template" parameter linked files under root directories to .git, which was a total nonsense. Instead, it means "I do not want to use anything from the template directory". * "git diff-tree" and other diff plumbing ignored diff.renamelimit configuration variable when the user explicitly asked for rename detection. * "git name-rev --name-only" did not work when "--stdin" option was in effect. * "git show-branch" mishandled its 8th branch. * Addition of "git update-index --ignore-submodules" that happened during 1.5.6 cycle broke "git update-index --ignore-missing". * "git send-email" did not parse charset from an existing Content-type: header properly. Contains other various documentation fixes. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.5.6.4 are as follows: Anders Melchiorsen (1): Documentation: fix diff.external example Björn Steinbrink (1): index-pack.c: correctly initialize appended objects Brandon Casey (1): t/t4202-log.sh: add newline at end of file Ciaran McCreesh (1): Make git-add -i accept ranges like 7- Jeff King (1): init: handle empty "template" parameter Jim Meyering (1): git-cvsimport.perl: Print "UNKNOWN LINE..." on stderr, not stdout.
