7 UI, Workflows & Features
9 * The "--format=%(trailers)" mechanism gets enhanced to make it
10 easier to design output for machine consumption.
12 * When a user does not tell "git pull" to use rebase or merge, the
13 command gives a loud message telling a user to choose between
14 rebase or merge but creates a merge anyway, forcing users who would
15 want to rebase to redo the operation. Fix an early part of this
16 problem by tightening the condition to give the message---there is
17 no reason to stop or force the user to choose between rebase or
18 merge if the history fast-forwards.
20 * The configuration variable 'core.abbrev' can be set to 'no' to
21 force no abbreviation regardless of the hash algorithm.
23 * "git rev-parse" can be explicitly told to give output as absolute
24 or relative path with the `--path-format=(absolute|relative)` option.
26 * Bash completion (in contrib/) update to make it easier for
27 end-users to add completion for their custom "git" subcommands.
29 * "git maintenance" learned to drive scheduled maintenance on
30 platforms whose native scheduling methods are not 'cron'.
33 Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
35 * A 3-year old test that was not testing anything useful has been
38 * Retire more names with "sha1" in it.
40 * The topological walk codepath is covered by new trace2 stats.
46 * Diagnose command line error of "git rebase" early.
47 (merge ca5120c339 rs/rebase-commit-validation later to maint).
49 * Clean up option descriptions in "git cmd --help".
50 (merge e73fe3dd02 zh/arg-help-format later to maint).
52 * "git stash" did not work well in a sparsely checked out working
54 (merge ba359fd507 en/stash-apply-sparse-checkout later to maint).
56 * Some tests expect that "ls -l" output has either '-' or 'x' for
57 group executable bit, but setgid bit can be inherited from parent
58 directory and make these fields 'S' or 's' instead, causing test
60 (merge ea8bbf2a4e mt/t4129-with-setgid-dir later to maint).
62 * "git for-each-repo --config=<var> <cmd>" should not run <cmd> for
63 any repository when the configuration variable <var> is not defined
65 (merge 6c62f01552 ds/for-each-repo-noopfix later to maint).
67 * Fix 2.29 regression where "git mergetool --tool-help" fails to list
68 all the available tools.
