The latest maintenance release Git v2.1.2 is now available at the
usual places. With this, v2.1.x has all the important fixes that
have been already applied to the 'master' front for the next feature
release. It also contains some updates to German
... [More]
translation.
The tarballs are found at:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.1.2'
tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at:

Git v2.1.2 Release Notes
========================
* "git push" over HTTP transport had an artificial limit on number of
refs that can be pushed imposed by the command line length.
* When receiving an invalid pack stream that records the same object
twice, multiple threads got confused due to a race.
* An attempt to remove the entire tree in the "git fast-import" input
stream caused it to misbehave.
* Reachability check (used in "git prune" and friends) did not add a
detached HEAD as a starting point to traverse objects still in use.
* "git config --add section.var val" used to lose existing
section.var whose value was an empty string.
* "git fsck" failed to report that it found corrupt objects via its
exit status in some cases.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since v2.1.1 are as follows:
Jeff King (5):
send-pack: take refspecs over stdin
index-pack: fix race condition with duplicate bases
fsck: exit with non-zero status upon error from fsck_obj()
config: avoid a funny sentinel value "a^"
fsck: return non-zero status on missing ref tips
Junio C Hamano (1):
Git 2.1.2
Max Kirillov (1):
reachable.c: add HEAD to reachability starting commits
Maxim Bublis (2):
t9300: test filedelete command
fast-import: fix segfault in store_tree()
Phillip Sz (2):
l10n: de.po: change Email to E-Mail
l10n: de.po: use comma before "um"
Ralf Thielow (1):
po/TEAMS: add new member to German translation team
Sergey Organov (2):
Documentation/git-rebase.txt: -f forces a rebase that would otherwise be a no-op
Documentation/git-rebase.txt: must be given to specify
Tanay Abhra (1):
make config --add behave correctly for empty and NULL values

Git v2.1.1 Release Notes
========================
* Git 2.0 had a regression where "git fetch" into a shallowly
cloned repository from a repository with bitmap object index
enabled did not work correctly. This has been corrected.
* Git 2.0 had a regression which broke (rarely used) "git diff-tree
-t". This has been corrected.
* "git log --pretty/format=" with an empty format string did not
mean the more obvious "No output whatsoever" but "Use default
format", which was counterintuitive. Now it means "nothing shown
for the log message part".
* "git -c section.var command" and "git -c section.var= command"
should pass the configuration differently (the former should be a
boolean true, the latter should be an empty string), but they
didn't work that way. Now it does.
* Applying a patch not generated by Git in a subdirectory used to
check the whitespace breakage using the attributes for incorrect
paths. Also whitespace checks were performed even for paths
excluded via "git apply --exclude=" mechanism.
* "git bundle create" with date-range specification were meant to
exclude tags outside the range, but it did not work correctly.
* "git add x" where x that used to be a directory has become a
symbolic link to a directory misbehaved.
* The prompt script checked $GIT_DIR/ref/stash file to see if there
is a stash, which was a no-no.
* "git checkout -m" did not switch to another branch while carrying
the local changes forward when a path was deleted from the index.
* With sufficiently long refnames, fast-import could have overflown
an on-stack buffer.
* After "pack-refs --prune" packed refs at the top-level, it failed
to prune them.
* "git gc --auto" triggered from "git fetch --quiet" was not quiet.

Some time ago I complained [1] about troubles using Git
on a project with high ratio of non-programmers.
Since then, a conclusion was made: Git is too complex.
While Git provides many nice advanced stuff, its simplest
workflow isn't simple enough.
... [More]
So we examined other options:
* Splitting project in two repos (Git + SVN). It was
thought to be the worst idea because we lost commit
atomicity
* Use GitHub SVN integration [2]. Rejected due to security
considerations: our closed-source project isn't allowed to be
hosted outside.
* Use GitHub Enterprise: rejected due to pricing
* Use SubGit [3]: rejected because of its architecture.
Then, a lost'n'forgotten git_svn_server [4] was found. After playing
with it, we found out that its approach can work, though several
decisions (Python and extensive forking of `git`) made it very slow.
So we thought "we're programmers, after all".
And that's when *git-as-svn* [5] was born. It is a daemon that sits
on top of Git repository and talks svn:// protocol.
Features supported:
* checkout/update
* log
* blame
* commit (!)
* rename detection (though a bit slow yet)
* svn:eol-style
* Git pre-receive hooks
* simple or LDAP authentication
* partial checkout
* sparse working copy (svn --depth/--set-depth)
* git submodules
Current limitations:
* Only a single Git branch from a single repository
* Needs at least one commit in Git
* Parses whole history on startup and doesn't cache it anywhere
* You must not do 'inverted merges'. Old HEAD must be reachable from
new HEAD by first-parent traversal.

Hello,
I am very happy to announce that another bug fix release of Tig is now
available. Among the most prominent fixes are readline completion and
srefreshing of view after returning from commands when refresh-mode is
set to after-command. This
... [More]
release also improves testing so that Tig now
has an actual test suite, which although being far from complete has
already help to ensure more consistency and avoid regressions. For a
complete list of fixes and improvements see the release notes below.
With this maintainance release out of the way I plan to merge some of
the experimental features such as support for key combos that didn't get
finalized for the 2.0 release.
What is Tig?
------------
Tig is an ncurses-based text-mode interface for git. It functions mainly
as a Git repository browser, but can also assist in staging changes for
commit at chunk level and act as a pager for output from various Git
commands.
Resources
---------
- Homepage: http://jonas.nitro.dk/tig/
- Manual: http://jonas.nitro.dk/tig/manual.html
- Tarballs: http://jonas.nitro.dk/tig/releases/
- Git URL: git://github.com/jonas/tig.git
- Gitweb: http://repo.or.cz/w/tig.git
- Q&A: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/tig
Release notes
-------------
Improvement:
- Add `:save-display ` prompt command to save the current display.
- Add `:script ` prompt command for scripting the Tig UI.
- Add test framework and convert existing tests to use it.
- Add command-line option for starting in refs view: `tig refs`. (GH #309)
- Make blame commit ID colors stable across reloads. (GH #303)
- Increase blame ID and graph rendering color palette to 14 colors.
- New setting 'split-view-width' controls the width for vertical splits. It
takes the width of the right-most view either as a number or a percentage.
- Expose settings holding command line argument lists: `file-args`, `rev-args`,
and `cmdline-args`. They are mainly intended for testing purposes but also
allows to change the filtering arguments dynamically. (GH #306)
- Add `log-options` setting for specifying default log view options.
Example: `set log-options = --pretty=fuller`.
- Use option specific view flags to reload view after `:set` commands.
Bug fixes:
- Refresh the current view when returning from an external command and
`refresh-mode=after-command`. (GH #289)
- Fix readline completion.
- Fix '/' to `find-next` when readline support is enabled. (GH #302)
- Fix readline prompt to correctly handle UTF-8 characters.
- Add warnings for more obsolete actions and colors.
- Fix passing of commit IDS via stdin to the main view.
- Fix commit title overflow drawing for multibyte text. (GH #307)
- Fix installation directory permissions.
- Handle binary files matches reported by git-grep.
- Toggling of "args"-typed options without any arguments will clear the current
arguments. Example: `:toggle blame-options`.
- Detect custom `pretty.format` settings that break the log view and fallback
to use the `medium` format. (GH #225)
- Fix invocation of git-diff for the blame view's line tracking. (GH #316)
- Fix blame completion of directory names. (GH #317)
- Fix display of conflicts in the main view when 'show-changes' is enabled.
- Fix off-by-one error when displaying line numbers in the grep view.
- When showing the commit graph ensure that either topo, date or author-date
commit order is used. (Debian #757692) (GH #238)

Git v2.1 Release Notes
======================
Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------
* The default value we give to the environment variable LESS has been
changed from "FRSX" to "FRX", losing "S" (chop long lines instead
of wrapping). Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped
output may want to set
$ git config core.pager "less -S"
to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people
find output from most subcommands easier to read with the new
default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long
lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can
do this:
$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* A few disused directories in contrib/ have been retired.
Updates since v2.0
------------------
UI, Workflows & Features
* Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a
default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop
long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default
set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing,
as opposed to the others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is
very much justified because many kinds of output we produce are
colored and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often
shorter than a page).
* The logic and data used to compute the display width needed for
UTF-8 strings have been updated to match Unicode 7.0 better.
* HTTP-based transports learned to better propagate the error messages from
the webserver to the client coming over the HTTP transport.
* The completion script for bash (in contrib/) has been updated to
better handle aliases that define a complex sequence of commands.
* The "core.preloadindex" configuration variable is enabled by default,
allowing modern platforms to take advantage of their
multiple cores.
* "git clone" applies the "if cloning from a local disk, physically
copy the repository using hardlinks, unless otherwise told not to with
--no-local" optimization when the url.*.insteadOf mechanism rewrites a
remote-repository "git clone $URL" into a
clone from a local disk.
* "git commit --date=" option learned more
timestamp formats, including "--date=now".
* The `core.commentChar` configuration variable is used to specify a
custom comment character (other than the default "#") for
the commit message editor. This can be set to `auto` to attempt to
choose a different character that does not conflict with any that
already starts a line in the message being edited, for cases like
"git commit --amend".
* "git format-patch" learned --signature-file= to add the contents
of a file as a signature to the mail message it produces.
* "git grep" learned the grep.fullname configuration variable to force
"--full-name" to be the default. This may cause regressions for
scripted users who do not expect this new behaviour.
* "git imap-send" learned to ask the credential helper for auth
material.
* "git log" and friends now understand the value "auto" for the
"log.decorate" configuration variable to enable the "--decorate"
option automatically when the output is sent to tty.
* "git merge" without an argument, even when there is an upstream
defined for the current branch, refused to run until
merge.defaultToUpstream is set to true. Flip the default of that
configuration variable to true.
* "git mergetool" learned to drive the vimdiff3 backend.
* mergetool.prompt used to default to 'true', always asking "do you
really want to run the tool on this path?". The default has been
changed to 'false'. However, the prompt will still appear if
mergetool used its autodetection system to guess which tool to use.
Users who explicitly specify or configure a tool will no longer see
the prompt by default.
Strictly speaking, this is a backward incompatible change and
users need to explicitly set the variable to 'true' if they want
to be prompted to confirm running the tool on each path.
* "git replace" learned the "--edit" subcommand to create a
replacement by editing an existing object.
* "git replace" learned a "--graft" option to rewrite the parents of a
commit.
* "git send-email" learned "--to-cover" and "--cc-cover" options, to
tell it to copy To: and Cc: headers found in the first input file
when emitting later input files.
* "git svn" learned to cope with malformed timestamps with only one
digit in the hour part, e.g. 2014-01-07T5:01:02.048176Z, emitted
by some broken subversion server implementations.
* "git tag" when editing the tag message shows the name of the tag
being edited as a comment in the editor.
* "git tag" learned to pay attention to "tag.sort" configuration, to
be used as the default sort order when no --sort= option
is given.
* A new "git verify-commit" command, to check GPG signatures in signed
commits, in a way similar to "git verify-tag" is used to check
signed tags, was added.
Performance, Internal Implementation, etc.
* Build procedure for 'subtree' (in contrib/) has been cleaned up.
* Support for the profile-feedback build, which has
bit-rotted for quite a while, has been updated.
* An experimental format to use two files (the base file and
incremental changes relative to it) to represent the index has been
introduced; this may reduce I/O cost of rewriting a large index
when only small part of the working tree changes.
* Effort to shrink the size of patches Windows folks maintain on top
by upstreaming them continues. More tests that are not applicable
to the Windows environment are identified and either skipped or
made more portable.
* Eradication of "test $condition -a $condition" from our scripts
continues.
* The `core.deltabasecachelimit` used to default to 16 MiB , but this
proved to be too small, and has been bumped to 96 MiB.
* "git blame" has been optimized greatly by reorganising the data
structure that is used to keep track of the work to be done.
* "git diff" that compares 3-or-more trees (e.g. parents and the
result of a merge) has been optimized.
* The API to update/delete references are being converted to handle
updates to multiple references in a transactional way. As an
example, "update-ref --stdin [-z]" has been updated to use this
API.
* skip_prefix() and strip_suffix() API functions are used a lot more
widely throughout the codebase now.
* Parts of the test scripts can be skipped by using a range notation,
e.g. "sh t1234-test.sh --run='1-4 6 8-'" to omit test piece 5 and 7
and run everything else.
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
Fixes since v2.0
----------------
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.0 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).
* We used to unconditionally disable the pager in the pager process
we spawn to feed out output, but that prevented people who want to
run "less" within "less" from doing so.
(merge c0459ca je/pager-do-not-recurse later to maint).
* Tools that read diagnostic output in our standard error stream do
not want to see terminal control sequence (e.g. erase-to-eol).
Detect them by checking if the standard error stream is connected
to a tty.
(merge 38de156 mn/sideband-no-ansi later to maint).
* Mishandling of patterns in .gitignore that have trailing SPs quoted
with backslashes (e.g. ones that end with "\ ") has been
corrected.
(merge 97c1364be6b pb/trim-trailing-spaces later to maint).
* Reworded the error message given upon a failure to open an existing
loose object file due to e.g. permission issues; it was reported as
the object being corrupt, but that is not quite true.
(merge d6c8a05 jk/report-fail-to-read-objects-better later to maint).
* "git log -2master" is a common typo that shows two commits starting
from whichever random branch that is not 'master' that happens to
be checked out currently.
(merge e3fa568 jc/revision-dash-count-parsing later to maint).
* Code to avoid adding the same alternate object store twice was
subtly broken for a long time, but nobody seems to have noticed.
(merge 80b4785 rs/fix-alt-odb-path-comparison later to maint).
(merge 539e750 ek/alt-odb-entry-fix later to maint).
* The "%<(10,trunc)%s" pretty format specifier in the log family of
commands is used to truncate the string to a given length (e.g. 10
in the example) with padding to column-align the output, but did
not take into account that number of bytes and number of display
columns are different.
(merge 7d50987 as/pretty-truncate later to maint).
* "%G" (nothing after G) is an invalid pretty format specifier, but
the parser did not notice it as garbage.
(merge 958b2eb jk/pretty-G-format-fixes later to maint).
* A handful of code paths had to read the commit object more than
once when showing header fields that are usually not parsed. The
internal data structure to keep track of the contents of the commit
object has been updated to reduce the need for this double-reading,
and to allow the caller find the length of the object.
(merge 218aa3a jk/commit-buffer-length later to maint).
* The "mailmap.file" configuration option did not support tilde
expansion (i.e. ~user/path and ~/path).
(merge 9352fd5 ow/config-mailmap-pathname later to maint).
* The completion scripts (in contrib/) did not know about quite a few
options that are common between "git merge" and "git pull", and a
couple of options unique to "git merge".
(merge 8fee872 jk/complete-merge-pull later to maint).
* The unix-domain socket used by the sample credential cache daemon
tried to unlink an existing stale one at a wrong path, if the path
to the socket was given as an overlong path that does not fit in
the sun_path member of the sockaddr_un structure.
(merge 2869b3e rs/fix-unlink-unix-socket later to maint).
* An ancient rewrite passed a wrong pointer to a curl library
function in a rarely used code path.
(merge 479eaa8 ah/fix-http-push later to maint).
* "--ignore-space-change" option of "git apply" ignored the spaces
at the beginning of lines too aggressively, which is inconsistent
with the option of the same name that "diff" and "git diff" have.
(merge 14d3bb4 jc/apply-ignore-whitespace later to maint).
* "git blame" miscounted the number of columns needed to show localized
timestamps, resulting in a jaggy left-side-edge for the source code
lines in its output.
(merge dd75553 jx/blame-align-relative-time later to maint).
* "git blame" assigned the blame to the copy in the working-tree if
the repository is set to core.autocrlf=input and the file used CRLF
line endings.
(merge 4d4813a bc/blame-crlf-test later to maint).
* "git clone -b brefs/tags/bar" would have mistakenly thought we were
following a single tag, even though it was a name of the branch,
because it incorrectly used strstr().
(merge 60a5f5f jc/fix-clone-single-starting-at-a-tag later to maint).
* "git commit --allow-empty-message -C $commit" did not work when the
commit did not have any log message.
(merge 076cbd6 jk/commit-C-pick-empty later to maint).
* "git diff --find-copies-harder" sometimes pretended as if the mode
bits have changed for paths that are marked with the assume-unchanged
bit.
(merge 5304810 jk/diff-files-assume-unchanged later to maint).
* "filter-branch" left an empty single-parent commit that results when
all parents of a merge commit get mapped to the same commit, even
under "--prune-empty".
(merge 79bc4ef cb/filter-branch-prune-empty-degenerate-merges later to maint).
* "git format-patch" did not enforce the rule that the "--follow"
option from the log/diff family of commands must be used with
exactly one pathspec.
(merge dd63f16 jk/diff-follow-must-take-one-pathspec later to maint).
* "git gc --auto" was recently changed to run in the background to
give control back early to the end-user sitting in front of the
terminal, but it forgot that housekeeping involving reflogs should
be done without other processes competing for accesses to the refs.
(merge 62aad18 nd/daemonize-gc later to maint).
* "git grep -O" to show the lines that hit in the pager did not work
well with case insensitive search. We now spawn "less" with its
"-I" option when it is used as the pager (which is the default).
(merge f7febbe sk/spawn-less-case-insensitively-from-grep-O-i later to maint).
* We used to disable threaded "git index-pack" on platforms without
thread-safe pread(); use a different workaround for such
platforms to allow threaded "git index-pack".
(merge 3953949 nd/index-pack-one-fd-per-thread later to maint).
* The error reporting from "git index-pack" has been improved to
distinguish missing objects from type errors.
(merge 77583e7 jk/index-pack-report-missing later to maint).
* "log --show-signature" incorrectly decided the color to paint a
mergetag that was and was not correctly validated.
(merge 42c55ce mg/fix-log-mergetag-color later to maint).
* "log --show-signature" did not pay attention to the "--graph" option.
(merge cf3983d zk/log-graph-showsig later to maint).
* "git mailinfo" used to read beyond the ends of header strings while
parsing an incoming e-mail message to extract the patch.
(merge b1a013d rs/mailinfo-header-cmp later to maint).
* On a case insensitive filesystem, merge-recursive incorrectly
deleted the file that is to be renamed to a name that is the same
except for case differences.
(merge baa37bf dt/merge-recursive-case-insensitive later to maint).
* Merging changes into a file that ends in an incomplete line made the
last line into a complete one, even when the other branch did not
change anything around the end of file.
(merge ba31180 mk/merge-incomplete-files later to maint).
* "git pack-objects" unnecessarily copied the previous contents when
extending the hashtable, even though it will populate the table
from scratch anyway.
(merge fb79947 rs/pack-objects-no-unnecessary-realloc later to maint).
* Recent updates to "git repack" started to duplicate objects that
are in packfiles marked with the .keep flag into the new packfile by
mistake.
(merge d078d85 jk/repack-pack-keep-objects later to maint).
* "git rerere forget" did not work well when merge.conflictstyle
was set to a non-default value.
(merge de3d8bb fc/rerere-conflict-style later to maint).
* "git remote rm" and "git remote prune" can involve removing many
refs at once, which is not a very efficient thing to do when very
many refs exist in the packed-refs file.
(merge e6bea66 jl/remote-rm-prune later to maint).
* "git log --exclude= --all | git shortlog" worked as expected,
but "git shortlog --exclude= --all", which is supposed to be
identical to the above pipeline, was not accepted at the command
line argument parser level.
(merge eb07774 jc/shortlog-ref-exclude later to maint).
* The autostash mode of "git rebase -i" did not restore the dirty
working tree state if the user aborted the interactive rebase by
emptying the insn sheet.
(merge ddb5432 rr/rebase-autostash-fix later to maint).
* "git rebase --fork-point" did not filter out patch-identical
commits correctly.
* During "git rebase --merge", a conflicted patch could not be
skipped with "--skip" if the next one also conflicted.
(merge 95104c7 bc/fix-rebase-merge-skip later to maint).
* "git show -s" (i.e. show log message only) used to incorrectly emit
an extra blank line after a merge commit.
(merge ad2f725 mk/show-s-no-extra-blank-line-for-merges later to maint).
* "git status", even though it is a read-only operation, tries to
update the index with refreshed lstat(2) info to optimize future
accesses to the working tree opportunistically, but this could
race with a "read-write" operation that modifies the index while it
is running. Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.
(merge 426ddee ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race later to maint).
* "git status" (and "git commit") behaved as if changes in a modified
submodule are not there if submodule.*.ignore configuration is set,
which was misleading. The configuration is only to unclutter diff
output during the course of development, and not to hide
changes in the "status" output to cause the users forget to commit
them.
(merge c215d3d jl/status-added-submodule-is-never-ignored later to maint).
* Documentation for "git submodule sync" forgot to say that the subcommand
can take the "--recursive" option.
(merge 9393ae7 mc/doc-submodule-sync-recurse later to maint).
* "git update-index --cacheinfo" in 2.0 release crashed on a
malformed command line.
(merge c8e1ee4 jc/rev-parse-argh-dashed-multi-words later to maint).
* The mode to run tests with HTTP server tests disabled was broken.
(merge afa53fe na/no-http-test-in-the-middle later to maint).

Git v2.1 Release Notes (draft)
==============================
Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------
* The default value we give to the environment variable LESS has been
changed from "FRSX" to "FRX", losing "S" (chop long lines instead
of wrapping). Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped
output may want to set
$ git config core.pager "less -S"
to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people
find output from most subcommands easier to read with the new
default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long
lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can
do this:
$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* A few disused directories in contrib/ have been retired.
Updates since v2.0
------------------
UI, Workflows & Features
* Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a
default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop
long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default
set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing,
as opposed to the others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is
very much justified because many kinds of output we produce are
colored and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often
shorter than a page).
* The logic and data used to compute the display width needed for
UTF-8 strings have been updated to match Unicode 7.0 better.
* HTTP-based transports learned to better propagate the error messages from
the webserver to the client coming over the HTTP transport.
* The completion script for bash (in contrib/) has been updated to
better handle aliases that define a complex sequence of commands.
* The "core.preloadindex" configuration variable is enabled by default,
allowing modern platforms to take advantage of their
multiple cores.
* "git clone" applies the "if cloning from a local disk, physically
copy the repository using hardlinks, unless otherwise told not to with
--no-local" optimization when the url.*.insteadOf mechanism rewrites a
remote-repository "git clone $URL" into a
clone from a local disk.
* "git commit --date=" option learned more
timestamp formats, including "--date=now".
* The `core.commentChar` configuration variable is used to specify a
custom comment character (other than the default "#") for
the commit message editor. This can be set to `auto` to attempt to
choose a different character that does not conflict with any that
already starts a line in the message being edited, for cases like
"git commit --amend".
* "git format-patch" learned --signature-file= to add the contents
of a file as a signature to the mail message it produces.
* "git grep" learned the grep.fullname configuration variable to force
"--full-name" to be the default. This may cause regressions for
scripted users who do not expect this new behaviour.
* "git imap-send" learned to ask the credential helper for auth
material.
* "git log" and friends now understand the value "auto" for the
"log.decorate" configuration variable to enable the "--decorate"
option automatically when the output is sent to tty.
* "git merge" without an argument, even when there is an upstream
defined for the current branch, refused to run until
merge.defaultToUpstream is set to true. Flip the default of that
configuration variable to true.
* "git mergetool" learned to drive the vimdiff3 backend.
* mergetool.prompt used to default to 'true', always asking "do you
really want to run the tool on this path?". The default has been
changed to 'false'. However, the prompt will still appear if
mergetool used its autodetection system to guess which tool to use.
Users who explicitly specify or configure a tool will no longer see
the prompt by default.
Strictly speaking, this is a backward incompatible change and
users need to explicitly set the variable to 'true' if they want
to be prompted to confirm running the tool on each path.
* "git replace" learned the "--edit" subcommand to create a
replacement by editing an existing object.
* "git replace" learned a "--graft" option to rewrite the parents of a
commit.
* "git send-email" learned "--to-cover" and "--cc-cover" options, to
tell it to copy To: and Cc: headers found in the first input file
when emitting later input files.
* "git svn" learned to cope with malformed timestamps with only one
digit in the hour part, e.g. 2014-01-07T5:01:02.048176Z, emitted
by some broken subversion server implementations.
* "git tag" when editing the tag message shows the name of the tag
being edited as a comment in the editor.
* "git tag" learned to pay attention to "tag.sort" configuration, to
be used as the default sort order when no --sort= option
is given.
* A new "git verify-commit" command, to check GPG signatures in signed
commits, in a way similar to "git verify-tag" is used to check
signed tags, was added.
Performance, Internal Implementation, etc.
* Build procedure for 'subtree' (in contrib/) has been cleaned up.
* Support for the profile-feedback build, which has
bit-rotted for quite a while, has been updated.
* An experimental format to use two files (the base file and
incremental changes relative to it) to represent the index has been
introduced; this may reduce I/O cost of rewriting a large index
when only small part of the working tree changes.
* Effort to shrink the size of patches Windows folks maintain on top
by upstreaming them continues. More tests that are not applicable
to the Windows environment are identified and either skipped or
made more portable.
* Eradication of "test $condition -a $condition" from our scripts
continues.
* The `core.deltabasecachelimit` used to default to 16 MiB , but this
proved to be too small, and has been bumped to 96 MiB.
* "git blame" has been optimized greatly by reorganising the data
structure that is used to keep track of the work to be done.
* "git diff" that compares 3-or-more trees (e.g. parents and the
result of a merge) has been optimized.
* The API to update/delete references are being converted to handle
updates to multiple references in a transactional way. As an
example, "update-ref --stdin [-z]" has been updated to use this
API.
* skip_prefix() and strip_suffix() API functions are used a lot more
widely throughout the codebase now.
* Parts of the test scripts can be skipped by using a range notation,
e.g. "sh t1234-test.sh --run='1-4 6 8-'" to omit test piece 5 and 7
and run everything else.
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
Fixes since v2.0
----------------
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.0 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).
* We used to unconditionally disable the pager in the pager process
we spawn to feed out output, but that prevented people who want to
run "less" within "less" from doing so.
(merge c0459ca je/pager-do-not-recurse later to maint).
* Tools that read diagnostic output in our standard error stream do
not want to see terminal control sequence (e.g. erase-to-eol).
Detect them by checking if the standard error stream is connected
to a tty.
(merge 38de156 mn/sideband-no-ansi later to maint).
* Mishandling of patterns in .gitignore that have trailing SPs quoted
with backslashes (e.g. ones that end with "\ ") has been
corrected.
(merge 97c1364be6b pb/trim-trailing-spaces later to maint).
* Reworded the error message given upon a failure to open an existing
loose object file due to e.g. permission issues; it was reported as
the object being corrupt, but that is not quite true.
(merge d6c8a05 jk/report-fail-to-read-objects-better later to maint).
* "git log -2master" is a common typo that shows two commits starting
from whichever random branch that is not 'master' that happens to
be checked out currently.
(merge e3fa568 jc/revision-dash-count-parsing later to maint).
* Code to avoid adding the same alternate object store twice was
subtly broken for a long time, but nobody seems to have noticed.
(merge 80b4785 rs/fix-alt-odb-path-comparison later to maint).
(merge 539e750 ek/alt-odb-entry-fix later to maint).
* The "%<(10,trunc)%s" pretty format specifier in the log family of
commands is used to truncate the string to a given length (e.g. 10
in the example) with padding to column-align the output, but did
not take into account that number of bytes and number of display
columns are different.
(merge 7d50987 as/pretty-truncate later to maint).
* "%G" (nothing after G) is an invalid pretty format specifier, but
the parser did not notice it as garbage.
(merge 958b2eb jk/pretty-G-format-fixes later to maint).

to the socket was given as an overlong path that does not fit in
the sun_path member of the sockaddr_un structure.
(merge 2869b3e rs/fix-unlink-unix-socket later to maint).
* An ancient rewrite passed a wrong pointer to a curl library
function in a rarely used code path.
(merge 479eaa8 ah/fix-http-push later to maint).
* "--ignore-space-change" option of "git apply" ignored the spaces
at the beginning of lines too aggressively, which is inconsistent
with the option of the same name that "diff" and "git diff" have.
(merge 14d3bb4 jc/apply-ignore-whitespace later to maint).

timestamps, resulting in a jaggy left-side-edge for the source code
lines in its output.

the repository is set to core.autocrlf=input and the file used CRLF

commit did not have any log message.
(merge 076cbd6 jk/commit-C-pick-empty later to maint).
* "git diff --find-copies-harder" sometimes pretended as if the mode
bits have changed for paths that are marked with the assume-unchanged
bit.

$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* A few disused directories in contrib/ have been retired.
Updates since v2.0
------------------
UI, Workflows & Features
* Since the very beginning of Git, we gave the LESS environment a
default value "FRSX" when we spawn "less" as the pager. "S" (chop
long lines instead of wrapping) has been removed from this default
set of options, because it is more or less a personal taste thing,
as opposed to others that have good justifications (i.e. "R" is
very much justified because many kinds of output we produce are
colored and "FX" is justified because output we produce is often
shorter than a page).
* The logic and data used to compute the display width needed for
UTF-8 strings have been updated to match Unicode 7.0 better.
* HTTP-based transports learned to propagate the error messages from
the webserver better to the client coming over the HTTP transport.
* The completion script for bash (in contrib/) has been updated to
handle aliases that define complex sequence of commands better.
* The "core.preloadindex" configuration variable is by default
enabled, allowing modern platforms to take advantage of the
multiple cores they have.
* "git clone" applies the "if cloning from a local disk, physically
copy repository using hardlinks, unless otherwise told not to with
--no-local" optimization when url.*.insteadOf mechanism rewrites a
"git clone $URL" that refers to a repository over the network to a
clone from a local disk.
* "git commit --date=" option learned to read from more
timestamp formats, including "--date=now".
* The `core.commentChar` configuration variable is used to specify a
custom comment character other than the default "#" to be used in
the commit log editor. This can be set to `auto` to attempt to
choose a different character that does not conflict with what
already starts a line in the message being edited for cases like
"git commit --amend".
* "git format-patch" learned --signature-file= to take the mail
signature from.
* "git grep" learned grep.fullname configuration variable to force
"--full-name" to be default. This may cause regressions on
scripted users that do not expect this new behaviour.
* "git imap-send" learned to ask the credential helper for auth
material.
* "git log" and friends now understand the value "auto" set to the
"log.decorate" configuration variable to enable the "--decorate"
option automatically when the output is sent to tty.
* "git merge" without argument, even when there is an upstream
defined for the current branch, refused to run until
merge.defaultToUpstream is set to true. Flip the default of that
configuration variable to true.
* "git mergetool" learned to drive the vimdiff3 backend.
* mergetool.prompt used to default to 'true', always asking "do you
really want to run the tool on this path?". Among the two
purposes this prompt serves, ignore the use case to confirm that
the user wants to view particular path with the named tool, and
redefine the meaning of the prompt only to confirm the choice of
the tool made by the autodetection (for those who configured the
tool explicitly, the prompt shown for the latter purpose is
simply annoying).
Strictly speaking, this is a backward incompatible change and the
users need to explicitly set the variable to 'true' if they want
to resurrect the now-ignored use case.
* "git replace" learned the "--edit" subcommand to create a
replacement by editing an existing object.
* "git replace" learned a "--graft" option to rewrite parents of a
commit.
* "git send-email" learned "--to-cover" and "--cc-cover" options, to
tell it to copy To: and Cc: headers found in the first input file
when emitting later input files.
* "git svn" learned to cope with malformed timestamps with only one
digit in the hour part, e.g. 2014-01-07T5:01:02.048176Z, emitted
by some broken subversion server implementations.
* "git tag" when editing the tag message shows the name of the tag
being edited as a comment in the editor.
* "git tag" learned to pay attention to "tag.sort" configuration, to
be used as the default sort order when no --sort= the option
is given.
* "git verify-commit" command to check GPG signature in signed
commits, in a way similar to "git verify-tag" is used to check
signed tags, was added.
Performance, Internal Implementation, etc.
* Build procedure for 'subtree' (in contrib/) has been cleaned up.
* The support for the profile-feedback build, which has been left
bit-rotten for quite a while, has been updated.
* An experimental format to use two files (the base file and
incremental changes relative to it) to represent the index has been
introduced; this may reduce I/O cost of rewriting a large index
when only small part of the working tree changes.
* Effort to shrink the size of patches Windows folks maintain on top
by upstreaming them continues. More tests that are not applicable
to the Windows environment are identified and either skipped or
made more portable.
* Eradication of "test $condition -a $condition" from our scripts
continues.
* The leaf function to check validity of a refname format has been
micro-optimized, using SSE2 instructions when available. A few
breakages during its development have been caught and fixed already
but there might remain some more still; please test and report if
you find any.
* The `core.deltabasecachelimit` used to default to 16 MiB , but this
proved to be too small, and has been bumped to 96 MiB.
* "git blame" has been optimized greatly by reorganising the data
structure that is used to keep track of the work to be done.
* "git diff" that compares 3-or-more trees (e.g. parents and the
result of a merge) have been optimized.
* The API to update/delete references are being converted to handle
updates to multiple references in a transactional way. As an
example, "update-ref --stdin [-z]" has been updated to use this
API.
* skip_prefix() and strip_suffix() API functions are used a lot more
widely throughout the codebase now.
* Parts of the test scripts can be skipped by using a range notation,
e.g. "sh t1234-test.sh --run='1-4 6 8-'" to omit test piece 5 and 7
and run everything else.
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.
Fixes since v2.0
----------------
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v2.0 in the maintenance
track are contained in this release (see the maintenance releases'
notes for details).
* We used to unconditionally disable the pager in the pager process
we spawn to feed out output, but that prevented people who want to
run "less" within "less" from doing so.
(merge c0459ca je/pager-do-not-recurse later to maint).
* Tools that read diagnostic output in our standard error stream do
not want to see terminal control sequence (e.g. erase-to-eol).
Detect them by checking if the standard error stream is connected
to a tty.
(merge 38de156 mn/sideband-no-ansi later to maint).
* Mishandling of patterns in .gitignore that has trailing SPs quoted
with backslashes (e.g. ones that end with "\ ") have been
corrected.
(merge 97c1364be6b pb/trim-trailing-spaces later to maint).
* Reworded the error message given upon a failure to open an existing
loose object file due to e.g. permission issues; it was reported as
the object being corrupt, but that is not quite true.
(merge d6c8a05 jk/report-fail-to-read-objects-better later to maint).
* "git log -2master" is a common typo that shows two commits starting
from whichever random branch that is not 'master' that happens to
be checked out currently.
(merge e3fa568 jc/revision-dash-count-parsing later to maint).
* Code to avoid adding the same alternate object store twice was
subtly broken for a long time, but nobody seems to have noticed.
(merge 80b4785 rs/fix-alt-odb-path-comparison later to maint).
(merge 539e750 ek/alt-odb-entry-fix later to maint).
* The "%<(10,trunc)%s" pretty format specifier in the log family of
commands is used to truncate the string to a given length (e.g. 10
in the example) with padding to column-align the output, but did
not take into account that number of bytes and number of display
columns are different.
(merge 7d50987 as/pretty-truncate later to maint).
* "%G" (nothing after G) is an invalid pretty format specifier, but
the parser did not notice it as garbage.
(merge 958b2eb jk/pretty-G-format-fixes later to maint).
* A handful of code paths had to read the commit object more than
once when showing header fields that are usually not parsed. The
internal data structure to keep track of the contents of the commit
object has been updated to reduce the need for this double-reading,
and to allow the caller find the length of the object.
(merge 218aa3a jk/commit-buffer-length later to maint).
* The "mailmap.file" configuration option did not support the tilde
expansion (i.e. ~user/path and ~/path).
(merge 9352fd5 ow/config-mailmap-pathname later to maint).
* The completion scripts (in contrib/) did not know about quite a few
options that are common between "git merge" and "git pull", and a
couple of options unique to "git merge".
(merge 8fee872 jk/complete-merge-pull later to maint).
* The unix-domain socket used by the sample credential cache daemon
tried to unlink an existing stale one at a wrong path, if the path
to the socket was given as an overlong path that does not fit in
sun_path member of the sockaddr_un structure.
(merge 2869b3e rs/fix-unlink-unix-socket later to maint).
* An ancient rewrite passed a wrong pointer to a curl library
function in a rarely used code path.
(merge 479eaa8 ah/fix-http-push later to maint).
* "--ignore-space-change" option of "git apply" ignored the spaces
at the beginning of line too aggressively, which is inconsistent
with the option of the same name "diff" and "git diff" have.
(merge 14d3bb4 jc/apply-ignore-whitespace later to maint).
* "git blame" miscounted number of columns needed to show localized
timestamps, resulting in jaggy left-side-edge of the source code
lines in its output.
(merge dd75553 jx/blame-align-relative-time later to maint).
* "git blame" assigned the blame to the copy in the working-tree if
the repository is set to core.autocrlf=input and the file used CRLF
line endings.
(merge 4d4813a bc/blame-crlf-test later to maint).
* "git clone -b brefs/tags/bar" would have mistakenly thought we were
following a single tag, even though it was a name of the branch,
because it incorrectly used strstr().
(merge 60a5f5f jc/fix-clone-single-starting-at-a-tag later to maint).
* "git commit --allow-empty-messag -C $commit" did not work when the
commit did not have any log message.
(merge 076cbd6 jk/commit-C-pick-empty later to maint).
* "git diff --find-copies-harder" sometimes pretended as if the mode
bits have changed for paths that are marked with assume-unchanged
bit.
(merge 5304810 jk/diff-files-assume-unchanged later to maint).
* "filter-branch" left an empty single-parent commit that results when
all parents of a merge commit gets mapped to the same commit, even
under "--prune-empty".
(merge 79bc4ef cb/filter-branch-prune-empty-degenerate-merges later to maint).
* "git format-patch" did not enforce the rule that the "--follow"
option from the log/diff family of commands must be used with
exactly one pathspec.
(merge dd63f16 jk/diff-follow-must-take-one-pathspec later to maint).
* "git gc --auto" was recently changed to run in the background to
give control back early to the end-user sitting in front of the
terminal, but it forgot that housekeeping involving reflogs should
be done without other processes competing for accesses to the refs.
(merge 62aad18 nd/daemonize-gc later to maint).
* "git grep -O" to show the lines that hit in the pager did not work
well with case insensitive search. We now spawn "less" with its
"-I" option when it is used as the pager (which is the default).
(merge f7febbe sk/spawn-less-case-insensitively-from-grep-O-i later to maint).
* We used to disable threaded "git index-pack" on platforms without
thread-safe pread(); use a different workaround for such
platforms to allow threaded "git index-pack".
(merge 3953949 nd/index-pack-one-fd-per-thread later to maint).
* The error reporting from "git index-pack" has been improved to
distinguish missing objects from type errors.
(merge 77583e7 jk/index-pack-report-missing later to maint).
* "log --show-signature" incorrectly decided the color to paint a
mergetag that was and was not correctly validated.
(merge 42c55ce mg/fix-log-mergetag-color later to maint).
* "log --show-signature" did not pay attention to "--graph" option.
(merge cf3983d zk/log-graph-showsig later to maint).
* "git mailinfo" used to read beyond the end of header string while
parsing an incoming e-mail message to extract the patch.
(merge b1a013d rs/mailinfo-header-cmp later to maint).
* On a case insensitive filesystem, merge-recursive incorrectly
deleted the file that is to be renamed to a name that is the same
except for case differences.
(merge baa37bf dt/merge-recursive-case-insensitive later to maint).
* Merging changes into a file that ends in an incomplete line made the
last line into a complete one, even when the other branch did not
change anything around the end of file.
(merge ba31180 mk/merge-incomplete-files later to maint).
* "git pack-objects" unnecessarily copied the previous contents when
extending the hashtable, even though it will populate the table
from scratch anyway.
(merge fb79947 rs/pack-objects-no-unnecessary-realloc later to maint).
* Recent updates to "git repack" started to duplicate objects that
are in packfiles marked with .keep flag into the new packfile by
mistake.
(merge d078d85 jk/repack-pack-keep-objects later to maint).
* "git rerere forget" did not work well when merge.conflictstyle
was set to a non-default value.
(merge de3d8bb fc/rerere-conflict-style later to maint).
* "git remote rm" and "git remote prune" can involve removing many
refs at once, which is not a very efficient thing to do when very
many refs exist in the packed-refs file.
(merge e6bea66 jl/remote-rm-prune later to maint).
* "git log --exclude= --all | git shortlog" worked as expected,
but "git shortlog --exclude= --all", which is supposed to be
identical to the above pipeline, was not accepted at the command
line argument parser level.
(merge eb07774 jc/shortlog-ref-exclude later to maint).
* The autostash mode of "git rebase -i" did not restore the dirty
working tree state if the user aborted the interactive rebase by
emptying the insn sheet.
(merge ddb5432 rr/rebase-autostash-fix later to maint).
* "git rebase --fork-point" did not filter out patch-identical
commits correctly.
* During "git rebase --merge", a conflicted patch could not be
skipped with "--skip" if the next one also conflicted.
(merge 95104c7 bc/fix-rebase-merge-skip later to maint).
* "git show -s" (i.e. show log message only) used to incorrectly emit
an extra blank line after a merge commit.
(merge ad2f725 mk/show-s-no-extra-blank-line-for-merges later to maint).
* "git status", even though it is a read-only operation, tries to
update the index with refreshed lstat(2) info to optimize future
accesses to the working tree opportunistically, but this could
race with a "read-write" operation that modify the index while it
is running. Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.
(merge 426ddee ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race later to maint).
* "git status" (and "git commit") behaved as if changes in a modified
submodule are not there if submodule.*.ignore configuration is set,
which was misleading. The configuration is only to unclutter diff
output during the course of development, and should not to hide
changes in the "status" output to cause the users forget to commit
them.
(merge c215d3d jl/status-added-submodule-is-never-ignored later to maint).
* Documentation for "git submodule sync" forgot to say that the subcommand
can take the "--recursive" option.
(merge 9393ae7 mc/doc-submodule-sync-recurse later to maint).
* "git update-index --cacheinfo" in 2.0 release crashed on a
malformed command line.
(merge c8e1ee4 jc/rev-parse-argh-dashed-multi-words later to maint).
* The mode to run tests with HTTP server tests disabled was broken.
(merge afa53fe na/no-http-test-in-the-middle later to maint).

Git v2.1 Release Notes (draft)
==============================
Backward compatibility notes
----------------------------
* The default value we give to the environment variable LESS has been
changed from "FRSX" to "FRX", losing "S" (chop long lines instead
of wrapping). Existing users who prefer not to see line-wrapped
output may want to set
$ git config core.pager "less -S"
to restore the traditional behaviour. It is expected that people
find output from the most subcommands easier to read with the new
default, except for "blame" which tends to produce really long
lines. To override the new default only for "git blame", you can
do this:
$ git config pager.blame "less -S"
* A few disused directories in contrib/ have been retired.

Detect them by checking if the standard error stream is connected
to a tty.
(merge 38de156 mn/sideband-no-ansi later to maint).
* Mishandling of patterns in .gitignore that has trailing SPs quoted
with backslashes (e.g. ones that end with "\ ") have been
corrected.
(merge 97c1364be6b pb/trim-trailing-spaces later to maint).
* Reworded the error message given upon a failure to open an existing
loose object file due to e.g. permission issues; it was reported as
the object being corrupt, but that is not quite true.
(merge d6c8a05 jk/report-fail-to-read-objects-better later to maint).
* "git log -2master" is a common typo that shows two commits starting
from whichever random branch that is not 'master' that happens to
be checked out currently.
(merge e3fa568 jc/revision-dash-count-parsing later to maint).
* Code to avoid adding the same alternate object store twice was
subtly broken for a long time, but nobody seems to have noticed.
(merge 80b4785 rs/fix-alt-odb-path-comparison later to maint).
(merge 539e750 ek/alt-odb-entry-fix later to maint).
* The "%<(10,trunc)%s" pretty format specifier in the log family of
commands is used to truncate the string to a given length (e.g. 10
in the example) with padding to column-align the output, but did
not take into account that number of bytes and number of display
columns are different.
(merge 7d50987 as/pretty-truncate later to maint).
* "%G" (nothing after G) is an invalid pretty format specifier, but
the parser did not notice it as garbage.
(merge 958b2eb jk/pretty-G-format-fixes later to maint).
* A handful of code paths had to read the commit object more than
once when showing header fields that are usually not parsed. The
internal data structure to keep track of the contents of the commit
object has been updated to reduce the need for this double-reading,
and to allow the caller find the length of the object.
(merge 218aa3a jk/commit-buffer-length later to maint).
* The "mailmap.file" configuration option did not support the tilde
expansion (i.e. ~user/path and ~/path).
(merge 9352fd5 ow/config-mailmap-pathname later to maint).
* The completion scripts (in contrib/) did not know about quite a few
options that are common between "git merge" and "git pull", and a
couple of options unique to "git merge".
(merge 8fee872 jk/complete-merge-pull later to maint).
* The unix-domain socket used by the sample credential cache daemon
tried to unlink an existing stale one at a wrong path, if the path
to the socket was given as an overlong path that does not fit in
sun_path member of the sockaddr_un structure.
(merge 2869b3e rs/fix-unlink-unix-socket later to maint).
* An ancient rewrite passed a wrong pointer to a curl library
function in a rarely used code path.
(merge 479eaa8 ah/fix-http-push later to maint).
* "--ignore-space-change" option of "git apply" ignored the spaces
at the beginning of line too aggressively, which is inconsistent
with the option of the same name "diff" and "git diff" have.
(merge 14d3bb4 jc/apply-ignore-whitespace later to maint).
* "git blame" miscounted number of columns needed to show localized
timestamps, resulting in jaggy left-side-edge of the source code
lines in its output.
(merge dd75553 jx/blame-align-relative-time later to maint).
* "git blame" assigned the blame to the copy in the working-tree if
the repository is set to core.autocrlf=input and the file used CRLF
line endings.
(merge 4d4813a bc/blame-crlf-test later to maint).
* "git clone -b brefs/tags/bar" would have mistakenly thought we were
following a single tag, even though it was a name of the branch,
because it incorrectly used strstr().
(merge 60a5f5f jc/fix-clone-single-starting-at-a-tag later to maint).
* "git commit --allow-empty-messag -C $commit" did not work when the
commit did not have any log message.
(merge 076cbd6 jk/commit-C-pick-empty later to maint).
* "git diff --find-copies-harder" sometimes pretended as if the mode
bits have changed for paths that are marked with assume-unchanged
bit.
(merge 5304810 jk/diff-files-assume-unchanged later to maint).
* "filter-branch" left an empty single-parent commit that results when
all parents of a merge commit gets mapped to the same commit, even
under "--prune-empty".
(merge 79bc4ef cb/filter-branch-prune-empty-degenerate-merges later to maint).
* "git format-patch" did not enforce the rule that the "--follow"
option from the log/diff family of commands must be used with
exactly one pathspec.
(merge dd63f16 jk/diff-follow-must-take-one-pathspec later to maint).
* "git gc --auto" was recently changed to run in the background to
give control back early to the end-user sitting in front of the
terminal, but it forgot that housekeeping involving reflogs should
be done without other processes competing for accesses to the refs.
(merge 62aad18 nd/daemonize-gc later to maint).
* "git grep -O" to show the lines that hit in the pager did not work
well with case insensitive search. We now spawn "less" with its
"-I" option when it is used as the pager (which is the default).
(merge f7febbe sk/spawn-less-case-insensitively-from-grep-O-i later to maint).
* We used to disable threaded "git index-pack" on platforms without
thread-safe pread(); use a different workaround for such
platforms to allow threaded "git index-pack".
(merge 3953949 nd/index-pack-one-fd-per-thread later to maint).
* The error reporting from "git index-pack" has been improved to
distinguish missing objects from type errors.
(merge 77583e7 jk/index-pack-report-missing later to maint).
* "log --show-signature" incorrectly decided the color to paint a
mergetag that was and was not correctly validated.
(merge 42c55ce mg/fix-log-mergetag-color later to maint).
* "log --show-signature" did not pay attention to "--graph" option.
(merge cf3983d zk/log-graph-showsig later to maint).
* "git mailinfo" used to read beyond the end of header string while
parsing an incoming e-mail message to extract the patch.
(merge b1a013d rs/mailinfo-header-cmp later to maint).
* On a case insensitive filesystem, merge-recursive incorrectly
deleted the file that is to be renamed to a name that is the same
except for case differences.
(merge baa37bf dt/merge-recursive-case-insensitive later to maint).
* Merging changes into a file that ends in an incomplete line made the
last line into a complete one, even when the other branch did not
change anything around the end of file.
(merge ba31180 mk/merge-incomplete-files later to maint).
* "git pack-objects" unnecessarily copied the previous contents when
extending the hashtable, even though it will populate the table
from scratch anyway.
(merge fb79947 rs/pack-objects-no-unnecessary-realloc later to maint).
* Recent updates to "git repack" started to duplicate objects that
are in packfiles marked with .keep flag into the new packfile by
mistake.
(merge d078d85 jk/repack-pack-keep-objects later to maint).
* "git rerere forget" did not work well when merge.conflictstyle
was set to a non-default value.
(merge de3d8bb fc/rerere-conflict-style later to maint).
* "git remote rm" and "git remote prune" can involve removing many
refs at once, which is not a very efficient thing to do when very
many refs exist in the packed-refs file.
(merge e6bea66 jl/remote-rm-prune later to maint).
* "git log --exclude= --all | git shortlog" worked as expected,
but "git shortlog --exclude= --all", which is supposed to be
identical to the above pipeline, was not accepted at the command
line argument parser level.
(merge eb07774 jc/shortlog-ref-exclude later to maint).
* The autostash mode of "git rebase -i" did not restore the dirty
working tree state if the user aborted the interactive rebase by
emptying the insn sheet.
(merge ddb5432 rr/rebase-autostash-fix later to maint).
* "git rebase --fork-point" did not filter out patch-identical
commits correctly.
* During "git rebase --merge", a conflicted patch could not be
skipped with "--skip" if the next one also conflicted.
(merge 95104c7 bc/fix-rebase-merge-skip later to maint).
* "git show -s" (i.e. show log message only) used to incorrectly emit
an extra blank line after a merge commit.
(merge ad2f725 mk/show-s-no-extra-blank-line-for-merges later to maint).
* "git status", even though it is a read-only operation, tries to
update the index with refreshed lstat(2) info to optimize future
accesses to the working tree opportunistically, but this could
race with a "read-write" operation that modify the index while it
is running. Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.
(merge 426ddee ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race later to maint).
* "git status" (and "git commit") behaved as if changes in a modified
submodule are not there if submodule.*.ignore configuration is set,
which was misleading. The configuration is only to unclutter diff
output during the course of development, and should not to hide
changes in the "status" output to cause the users forget to commit
them.
(merge c215d3d jl/status-added-submodule-is-never-ignored later to maint).
* Documentation for "git submodule sync" forgot to say that the subcommand
can take the "--recursive" option.
(merge 9393ae7 mc/doc-submodule-sync-recurse later to maint).
* "git update-index --cacheinfo" in 2.0 release crashed on a
malformed command line.
(merge c8e1ee4 jc/rev-parse-argh-dashed-multi-words later to maint).
* The mode to run tests with HTTP server tests disabled was broken.
(merge afa53fe na/no-http-test-in-the-middle later to maint).

The latest maintenance release Git v2.0.3 is now available at
the usual places. Hopefully it would be the final maintenance
release for the v2.0 series.
The tarballs are found at:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
The following
... [More]
public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.0.3'
tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at:
url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git
url = https://code.google.com/p/git-core/
url = git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git
url = git://git-core.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/git-core/git-core
url = https://github.com/gitster/git
Git v2.0.3 Release Notes
========================
* An ancient rewrite passed a wrong pointer to a curl library
function in a rarely used code path.
* "filter-branch" left an empty single-parent commit that results when
all parents of a merge commit gets mapped to the same commit, even
under "--prune-empty".
* "log --show-signature" incorrectly decided the color to paint a
mergetag that was and was not correctly validated.
* "log --show-signature" did not pay attention to "--graph" option.
Also a lot of fixes to the tests and some updates to the docs are
included.
