| Git v2.3.5 Release Notes | |
| ======================== | |
| Fixes since v2.3.4 | |
| ------------------ | |
| * The prompt script (in contrib/) did not show the untracked sign | |
| when working in a subdirectory without any untracked files. | |
| * Even though "git grep --quiet" is run merely to ask for the exit | |
| status, we spawned the pager regardless. Stop doing that. | |
| * Recommend format-patch and send-email for those who want to submit | |
| patches to this project. | |
| * An failure early in the "git clone" that started creating the | |
| working tree and repository could have resulted in some directories | |
| and files left without getting cleaned up. | |
| * "git fetch" that fetches a commit using the allow-tip-sha1-in-want | |
| extension could have failed to fetch all the requested refs. | |
| * The split-index mode introduced at v2.3.0-rc0~41 was broken in the | |
| codepath to protect us against a broken reimplementation of Git | |
| that writes an invalid index with duplicated index entries, etc. | |
| * "git prune" used to largely ignore broken refs when deciding which | |
| objects are still being used, which could spread an existing small | |
| damage and make it a larger one. | |
| * "git tag -h" used to show the "--column" and "--sort" options | |
| that are about listing in a wrong section. | |
| * The transfer.hiderefs support did not quite work for smart-http | |
| transport. | |
| * The code that reads from the ctags file in the completion script | |
| (in contrib/) did not spell ${param/pattern/string} substitution | |
| correctly, which happened to work with bash but not with zsh. | |
| * The explanation on "rebase --preserve-merges", "pull --rebase=preserve", | |
| and "push --force-with-lease" in the documentation was unclear. | |
| Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups. |
