1 GIT v1.6.0.5 Release Notes
2 ==========================
7 * 'git checkout' used to crash when your HEAD was pointing at a deleted
10 * 'git checkout' from an un-checked-out state did not allow switching out
11 of the current branch.
13 * 'git diff' always allowed GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF and --no-ext-diff was no-op for
16 * 'git fast-export' did not export all tags.
18 * 'git ls-files --with-tree=<tree>' did not work with options other
19 than -c, most notably with -m.
21 * 'git pack-objects' did not make its best effort to honor --max-pack-size
22 option when a single first object already busted the given limit and
23 placed many objects in a single pack.
25 * 'git-p4' fast import frontend was too eager to trigger its keyword expansion
26 logic, even on a keyword-looking string that does not have closing '$' on the
29 * 'git push $there' when the remote $there is defined in $GIT_DIR/branches/$there
30 behaves more like what cg-push from Cogito used to work.
32 * 'git tag' did not complain when given mutually incompatible set of options.
34 * 'make check' cannot be run without sparse; people may have meant to say
35 'make test' instead, so suggest that.
37 * Many unsafe call to sprintf() style varargs functions are corrected.
39 * Also contains quite a few documentation updates.
