This has been corrected. + + * user.email that consists of only cruft chars should consistently + error out, but didn't. + + * A few tests were run conditionally under (rare) conditions where + they cannot be run (like running cvs tests under 'root' account). + + * "git branch @" created refs/heads/@ as a branch, and in general the + code that handled @{-1} and @{upstream} was a bit too loose in + disambiguating. + + * "git fetch" that requests a commit by object name, when the other + side does not allow such an request, failed without much + explanation. + + * "git filter-branch --prune-empty" drops a single-parent commit that + becomes a no-op, but did not drop a root commit whose tree is empty. + + * Recent versions of Git treats http alternates (used in dumb http + transport) just like HTTP redirects and requires the client to + enable following it, due to security concerns. But we forgot to + give a warning when we decide not to honor the alternates. + + * NO_PTHREADS build has been broken for some time; now fixed. + + * Fix for potential segv introduced in v2.11.0 and later (also + v2.10.2). + + * A few unterminated here documents in tests were fixed, which in + turn revealed incorrect expectations the tests make.
