The + build procedure has been tweaked to help these compilers. + + * Plug memory leaks in the failure code path in the "merge-ort" merge + strategy backend. + + * Avoid repeatedly running getconf to ask libc version in the test + suite, and instead just as it once per script. + + * Platform-specific code that determines if a directory is OK to use + as a repository has been taught to report more details, especially + on Windows. + + * "vimdiff3" regression has been corrected. + + * "git fsck" reads mode from tree objects but canonicalizes the mode + before passing it to the logic to check object sanity, which has + hid broken tree objects from the checking logic. This has been + corrected, but to help exiting projects with broken tree objects + that they cannot fix retroactively, the severity of anomalies this + code detects has been demoted to "info" for now. + + * Fixes to sparse index compatibility work for "reset" and "checkout" + commands. + + * Documentation for "git add --renormalize" has been improved. + +Also contains other minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. -- cgit v1.2.3
