| 1 | +GIT v1.6.4 Release Notes |
| 2 | +======================== |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +With the next major release, "git push" into a branch that is |
| 5 | +currently checked out will be refused by default. You can choose |
| 6 | +what should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration |
| 7 | +variable receive.denyCurrentBranch in the receiving repository. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +To ease the transition plan, the receiving repository of such a |
| 10 | +push running this release will issue a big warning when the |
| 11 | +configuration variable is missing. Please refer to: |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | + http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/GitFaq#non-bare |
| 14 | + http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/107758/focus=108007 |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +for more details on the reason why this change is needed and the |
| 17 | +transition plan. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +For a similar reason, "git push $there :$killed" to delete the branch |
| 20 | +$killed in a remote repository $there, if $killed branch is the current |
| 21 | +branch pointed at by its HEAD, gets a large warning. You can choose what |
| 22 | +should happen upon such a push by setting the configuration variable |
| 23 | +receive.denyDeleteCurrent in the receiving repository. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +When the user does not tell "git push" what to push, it has always |
| 26 | +pushed matching refs. For some people it is unexpected, and a new |
| 27 | +configuration variable push.default has been introduced to allow |
| 28 | +changing a different default behaviour. To advertise the new feature, |
| 29 | +a big warning is issued if this is not configured and a git push without |
| 30 | +arguments is attempted. |
