Now you can with + %aN and %cN. + +* Bash completion wasted too many cycles; this has been optimized to be + usable again. + +* Bash completion lost ref part when completing something like "git show + pu:Makefile". + +* "git-cvsserver" did not clean up its temporary working area after annotate + request. + +* "git-daemon" called syslog() from its signal handler, which was a + no-no. + +* "git-fetch" into an empty repository used to remind that the fetch will + be huge by saying "no common commits", but this was an unnecessary + noise; it is already known by the user anyway. + +* "git-http-fetch" would have segfaulted when pack idx file retrieved + from the other side was corrupt. + +* "git-index-pack" used too much memory when dealing with a deep delta chain. + +* "git-mailinfo" (hence "git-am") did not correctly handle in-body [PATCH] + line to override the commit title taken from the mail Subject header. + +* "git-rebase -i -p" lost parents that are not involved in the history + being rewritten. + +* "git-rm" lost track of where the index file was when GIT_DIR was + specified as a relative path. + +* "git-rev-list --quiet" was not quiet as advertised. + +Contains other various documentation fixes. |
