| GIT v1.6.0.6 Release Notes | |
| ========================== | |
| Fixes since 1.6.0.5 | |
| ------------------- | |
| * "git fsck" had a deep recursion that wasted stack space. | |
| * "git fast-export" and "git fast-import" choked on an old style | |
| annotated tag that lack the tagger information. | |
| * "git mergetool -- file" did not correctly skip "--" marker that | |
| signals the end of options list. | |
| * "git show $tag" segfaulted when an annotated $tag pointed at a | |
| nonexistent object. | |
| * "git show 2>error" when the standard output is automatically redirected | |
| to the pager redirected the standard error to the pager as well; there | |
| was no need to. | |
| * "git send-email" did not correctly handle list of addresses when | |
| they had quoted comma (e.g. "Lastname, Givenname" <mail@addre.ss>). | |
| * Logic to discover branch ancestry in "git svn" was unreliable when | |
| the process to fetch history was interrupted. | |
| * Removed support for an obsolete gitweb request URI, whose | |
| implementation ran "git diff" Porcelain, instead of using plumbing, | |
| which would have run an external diff command specified in the | |
| repository configuration as the gitweb user. | |
| Also contains numerous documentation typofixes. |
