Git v1.7.11.6 Release Notes
|
||
|
|
===========================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.11.5
|
||
|
|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is primarily documentation and low-impact code clarification.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- "ciabot" script (in contrib/) has been updated with extensive
|
||
|
|
documentation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The "--rebase" option to "git pull" can be abbreviated to "-r",
|
||
|
|
but we didn't document it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- It was generally understood that "--long-option"s to many of our
|
||
|
|
subcommands can be abbreviated to the unique prefix, but it was not
|
||
|
|
easy to find it described for new readers of the documentation set.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- The "--topo-order", "--date-order" (and the lack of either means
|
||
|
|
the default order) options to "rev-list" and "log" family of
|
||
|
|
commands were poorly described in the documentation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Older parts of the documentation described as if having a regular
|
||
|
|
file in .git/refs/ hierarchy were the only way to have branches and
|
||
|
|
tags, which is not true for quite some time.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- A utility shell function test_seq has been added as a replacement
|
||
|
|
for the 'seq' utility found on some platforms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Fallback 'getpass' implementation made unportable use of stdio API.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- "git commit --amend" let the user edit the log message and then
|
||
|
|
died when the human-readable committer name was given
|
||
|
|
insufficiently by getpwent(3).
