The fix for this in 1.8.1.2 had + performance degradations. + + * Command line completion code was inadvertently made incompatible with + older versions of bash by using a newer array notation. + + * Scripts to test bash completion was inherently flaky as it was + affected by whatever random things the user may have on $PATH. + + * A fix was added to the build procedure to work around buggy + versions of ccache broke the auto-generation of dependencies, which + unfortunately is still relevant because some people use ancient + distros. + + * We used to stuff "user@" and then append what we read from + /etc/mailname to come up with a default e-mail ident, but a bug + lost the "user@" part. + + * "git am" did not parse datestamp correctly from Hg generated patch, + when it is run in a locale outside C (or en). + + * Attempt to "branch --edit-description" an existing branch, while + being on a detached HEAD, errored out. + + * "git cherry-pick" did not replay a root commit to an unborn branch. + + * We forgot to close the file descriptor reading from "gpg" output, + killing "git log --show-signature" on a long history. + + * "git rebase --preserve-merges" lost empty merges in recent versions + of Git. + + * Rebasing the history of superproject with change in the submodule + has been broken since v1.7.12. + + * A failure to push due to non-ff while on an unborn branch + dereferenced a NULL pointer when showing an error message. + +Also contains various documentation fixes. |
