| Git v2.53 Release Notes |
| ======================= |
| |
| UI, Workflows & Features |
| ------------------------ |
| |
| * "git maintenance" command learned "is-needed" subcommand to tell if |
| it is necessary to perform various maintenance tasks. |
| |
| |
| Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. |
| -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| |
| * The list of packfiles used in a running Git process is moved from |
| the packed_git structure into the packfile store. |
| |
| * Some ref backend storage can hold not just the object name of an |
| annotated tag, but the object name of the object the tag points at. |
| The code to handle this information has been streamlined. |
| |
| * As "git diff --quiet" only cares about the existence of any |
| changes, disable rename/copy detection to skip more expensive |
| processing whose result will be discarded anyway. |
| |
| |
| Fixes since v2.51 |
| ----------------- |
| |
| * Ever since we added whitespace rules for this project, we misspelt |
| an entry, which has been corrected. |
| (merge 358e94dc70 jc/gitattributes-whitespace-no-indent-fix later to maint). |
