| Git v1.7.10.3 Release Notes |
| =========================== |
| |
| Fixes since v1.7.10.2 |
| --------------------- |
| |
| * The message file for German translation has been updated a bit. |
| |
| * Running "git checkout" on an unborn branch used to corrupt HEAD. |
| |
| * When checking out another commit from an already detached state, we |
| used to report all commits that are not reachable from any of the |
| refs as lossage, but some of them might be reachable from the new |
| HEAD, and there is no need to warn about them. |
| |
| * Some time ago, "git clone" lost the progress output for its |
| "checkout" phase; when run without any "--quiet" option, it should |
| give progress to the lengthy operation. |
| |
| * The directory path used in "git diff --no-index", when it recurses |
| down, was broken with a recent update after v1.7.10.1 release. |
| |
| * "log -z --pretty=tformat:..." did not terminate each record with |
| NUL. The fix is not entirely correct when the output also asks for |
| --patch and/or --stat, though. |
| |
| * The DWIM behaviour for "log --pretty=format:%gd -g" was somewhat |
| broken and gave undue precedence to configured log.date, causing |
| "git stash list" to show "stash@{time stamp string}". |
| |
| * "git status --porcelain" ignored "--branch" option by mistake. The |
| output for "git status --branch -z" was also incorrect and did not |
| terminate the record for the current branch name with NUL as asked. |
| |
| * When a submodule repository uses alternate object store mechanism, |
| some commands that were started from the superproject did not |
| notice it and failed with "No such object" errors. The subcommands |
| of "git submodule" command that recursed into the submodule in a |
| separate process were OK; only the ones that cheated and peeked |
| directly into the submodule's repository from the primary process |
| were affected. |
| |
| Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates. |
