| Git v2.4.4 Release Notes | |
| ======================== | |
| Fixes since v2.4.3 | |
| ------------------ | |
| * l10n updates for German. | |
| * An earlier leakfix to bitmap testing code was incomplete. | |
| * "git clean pathspec..." tried to lstat(2) and complain even for | |
| paths outside the given pathspec. | |
| * Communication between the HTTP server and http_backend process can | |
| lead to a dead-lock when relaying a large ref negotiation request. | |
| Diagnose the situation better, and mitigate it by reading such a | |
| request first into core (to a reasonable limit). | |
| * The clean/smudge interface did not work well when filtering an | |
| empty contents (failed and then passed the empty input through). | |
| It can be argued that a filter that produces anything but empty for | |
| an empty input is nonsense, but if the user wants to do strange | |
| things, then why not? | |
| * Make "git stash something --help" error out, so that users can | |
| safely say "git stash drop --help". | |
| * Clarify that "log --raw" and "log --format=raw" are unrelated | |
| concepts. | |
| * Catch a programmer mistake to feed a pointer not an array to | |
| ARRAY_SIZE() macro, by using a couple of GCC extensions. | |
| Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code | |
| clean-ups. |
