| 1 | +Git v1.6.6.2 Release Notes |
| 2 | +========================== |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +Fixes since v1.6.6.2 |
| 5 | +-------------------- |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | + * recursive merge didn't correctly diagnose its own programming errors, |
| 8 | + and instead caused the caller to segfault. |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | + * The new "smart http" aware clients probed the web servers to see if |
| 11 | + they support smart http, but did not fall back to dumb http transport |
| 12 | + correctly with some servers. |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | + * Time based reflog syntax e.g. "@{yesterday}" didn't diagnose a misspelled |
| 15 | + time specification and instead assumed "@{now}". |
| 16 | + |
| 17 | + * "git archive HEAD -- no-such-directory" produced an empty archive |
| 18 | + without complaining. |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | + * "git blame -L start,end -- file" misbehaved when given a start that is |
| 21 | + larger than the number of lines in the file. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + * "git checkout -m" didn't correctly call custom merge backend supplied |
| 24 | + by the end user. |
| 25 | + |
| 26 | + * "git config -f <file>" misbehaved when run from a subdirectory. |
| 27 | + |
| 28 | + * "git cvsserver" didn't like having regex metacharacters (e.g. '+') in |
| 29 | + CVSROOT environment. |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | + * "git fast-import" did not correctly handle large blobs that may |
| 32 | + bust the pack size limit. |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | + * "git gui" is supposed to work even when launched from inside a .git |
| 35 | + directory. |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | + * "git gui" misbehaved when applying a hunk that ends with deletion. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | + * "git imap-send" did not honor imap.preformattedHTML as documented. |
| 40 | + |
| 41 | + * "git log" family incorrectly showed the commit notes unconditionally by |
| 42 | + mistake, which was especially irritating when running "git log --oneline". |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | + * "git status" shouldn't require an write access to the repository. |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +Other minor documentation updates are included. |
