In Git 2.0, the default will change to the "simple" +semantics that pushes: + + - only the current branch to the branch with the same name, and only + when the current branch is set to integrate with that remote + branch, if you are pushing to the same remote as you fetch from; or + + - only the current branch to the branch with the same name, if you + are pushing to a remote that is not where you usually fetch from. + +Use the user preference configuration variable "push.default" to +change this. If you are an old-timer who is used to the "matching" +semantics, you can set the variable to "matching" to keep the +traditional behaviour. If you want to live in the future early, you +can set it to "simple" today without waiting for Git 2.0. + +When "git add -u" (and "git add -A") is run inside a subdirectory and +does not specify which paths to add on the command line, it +will operate on the entire tree in Git 2.0 for consistency +with "git commit -a" and other commands. There will be no +mechanism to make plain "git add -u" behave like "git add -u .". +Current users of "git add -u" (without a pathspec) should start +training their fingers to explicitly say "git add -u ." +before Git 2.0 comes. A warning is issued when these commands are +run without a pathspec and when you have local changes outside the +current directory, because the behaviour in Git 2.0 will be different +from today's version in such a situation. + +In Git 2.0, "git add <path>" will behave as "git add -A <path>", so +that "git add dir/" will notice paths you removed from the directory +and record the removal. Versions before Git 2.0, including this +release, will keep ignoring removals, but the users who rely on this +behaviour are encouraged to start using "git add --ignore-removal <path>" +now before 2.0 is released. + + +Updates since v1.8.3 +-------------------- + +Foreign interfaces, subsystems and ports. + + * Cygwin port has been updated for more recent Cygwin 1.7. + + * "git rebase -i" now honors --strategy and -X options. + + * Git-gui has been updated to its 0.18.0 version. + + * MediaWiki remote helper (in contrib/) has been updated to use the + credential helper interface from Git.pm. + + * Update build for Cygwin 1.[57]. Torsten Bögershausen reports that + this is fine with Cygwin 1.7 ($gmane/225824) so let's try moving it + ahead. + + * The credential helper to talk to keychain on OS X (in contrib/) has + been updated to kick in not just when talking http/https but also + imap(s) and smtp. + + * Remote transport helper has been updated to report errors and + maintain ref hierarchy used to keep track of its own state better. + + * With "export" remote-helper protocol, (1) a push that tries to + update a remote ref whose name is different from the pushing side + does not work yet, and (2) the helper may not know how to do + --dry-run; these problematic cases are disabled for now. + + * git-remote-hg/bzr (in contrib/) updates. + + * git-remote-mw (in contrib/) hints users to check the certificate, + when https:// connection failed. + + * git-remote-mw (in contrib/) adds a command to allow previewing the + contents locally before pushing it out, when working with a + MediaWiki remote. + + +UI, Workflows & Features + + * Sample "post-receive-email" hook script got an enhanced replacement + "multimail" (in contrib/). + + * Also in contrib/ is a new "contacts" script that runs "git blame" + to find out the people who may be interested in a set of changes. + + * "git clean" command learned an interactive mode. + + * The "--head" option to "git show-ref" was only to add "HEAD" to the + list of candidate refs to be filtered by the usual rules + (e.g. "--heads" that only show refs under refs/heads). The meaning + of the option has been changed to always show "HEAD" regardless of + what filtering will be applied to any other ref. + + This is a backward incompatible change and might cause breakages to + people's existing scripts. + + * "git show -s" was less discoverable than it should have been. It + now has a natural synonym "git show --no-patch". + + * "git check-mailmap" is a new command that lets you map usernames + and e-mail addresses through the mailmap mechanism, just like many + built-in commands do. + + * "git name-rev" learned to name an annotated tag object back to its + tagname; "git name-rev $(git rev-parse v1.0.0)" gives "tags/v1.0.0", + for example. + + * "git cat-file --batch-check=<format>" is added, primarily to allow + on-disk footprint of objects in packfiles (often they are a lot + smaller than their true size, when expressed as deltas) to be + reported. + + * "git rebase [-i]" used to leave just "rebase" as its reflog messages + for some operations. They have been reworded to be more informative. + + * In addition to the choice from "rebase, merge, or checkout-detach", + "submodule update" can allow a custom command to be used in to + update the working tree of submodules via the "submodule.*.update" + configuration variable. + + * "git submodule update" can optionally clone the submodule + repositories shallowly. + + * "git format-patch" learned "--from[=whom]" option, which sets the + "From: " header to the specified person (or the person who runs the + command, if "=whom" part is missing) and move the original author + information to an in-body From: header as necessary. + + * The configuration variable "merge.ff" was cleary a tri-state to + choose one from "favor fast-forward when possible", "always create + a merge even when the history could fast-forward" and "do not + create any merge, only update when the history fast-forwards", but + the command line parser did not implement the usual convention of + "last one wins, and command line overrides the configuration" + correctly. + + * "gitweb" learned to optionally place extra links that point at the + levels higher than the Gitweb pages themselves in the breadcrumbs, + so that it can be used as part of a larger installation. + + * "git log --format=" now honors i18n.logoutputencoding configuration + variable. + + * The "push.default=simple" mode of "git push" has been updated to + behave like "current" without requiring a remote tracking + information, when you push to a remote that is different from where + you fetch from (i.e. a triangular workflow). + + * Having multiple "fixup!" on a line in the rebase instruction sheet + did not work very well with "git rebase -i --autosquash". + + * "git log" learned the "--author-date-order" option, with which the + output is topologically sorted and commits in parallel histories + are shown intermixed together based on the author timestamp. + + * Various subcommands of "git submodule" refused to run from anywhere + other than the top of the working tree of the superproject, but + they have been taught to let you run from a subdirectory. + + * "git diff" learned a mode that ignores hunks whose change consists + only of additions and removals of blank lines, which is the same as + "diff -B" (ignore blank lines) of GNU diff. + + * "git rm" gives a single message followed by list of paths to report + multiple paths that cannot be removed. + + * "git rebase" can be told with ":/look for this string" syntax commits + to replay the changes onto and where the work to be replayed begins. + + * Many tutorials teach users to set "color.ui" to "auto" as the first + thing after you set "user.name/email" to introduce yourselves to + Git. Now the variable defaults to "auto". + + * On Cygwin, "cygstart" is now recognised as a possible way to start + a web browser (used in "help -w" and "instaweb" among others). + + * "git status" learned status.branch and status.short configuration + variables to use --branch and --short options by default (override + with --no-branch and --no-short options from the command line). + + * "git cmd <name>", when <name> happens to be a 40-hex string, + directly uses the 40-hex string as an object name, even if a ref + "refs/<some hierarchy>/<name>" exists. This disambiguation order + is unlikely to change, but we should warn about the ambiguity just + like we warn when more than one refs/ hierarchies share the same + name. + + * "git rebase" learned "--[no-]autostash" option to save local + changes instead of refusing to run (to which people's normal + response was to stash them and re-run). This introduced a corner + case breakage to "git am --abort" but it has been fixed. + + * "check-ignore" (new feature since 1.8.2) has been updated to work + more like "check-attr" over bidi-pipes. + + * "git describe" learned "--first-parent" option to limit its closest + tagged commit search to the first-parent chain. + + * "git merge foo" that might have meant "git merge origin/foo" is + diagnosed with a more informative error message. + + * "git log -L<line>,<range>:<filename>" has been added. This may + still have leaks and rough edges, though. + + * We used the approxidate() parser for "--expire=<timestamp>" options + of various commands, but it is better to treat --expire=all and + --expire=now a bit more specially than using the current timestamp. + "git gc" and "git reflog" have been updated with a new parsing + function for expiry dates. + + * Updates to completion (both bash and zsh) helpers. + + * The behaviour of the "--chain-reply-to" option of "git send-email" + have changed at 1.7.0, and we added a warning/advice message to + help users adjust to the new behaviour back then, but we kept it + around for too long. The message has finally been removed. + + * "git fetch origin master" unlike "git fetch origin" or "git fetch" + did not update "refs/remotes/origin/master"; this was an early + design decision to keep the update of remote tracking branches + predictable, but in practice it turns out that people find it more + convenient to opportunistically update them whenever we have a + chance, and we have been updating them when we run "git push" which + already breaks the original "predictability" anyway. + + * The configuration variable core.checkstat was advertised in the + documentation but the code expected core.statinfo instead. + For now, we accept both core.checkstat and core.statinfo, but the + latter will be removed in the longer term. + + +Performance, Internal Implementation, etc. + + * On Cygwin, we used to use our own lstat(2) emulation that is + allegedly faster than the platform one in codepaths where some of + the information it returns did not matter, but it started to bite + us in a few codepaths where the trick it uses to cheat does show + breakages. This emulation has been removed and we use the native + lstat(2) emulation supplied by Cygwin now. + + * The function attributes extensions are used to catch mistakes in + use of our own variadic functions that use NULL sentinel at the end + (i.e. like execl(3)) and format strings (i.e. like printf(3)). + + * The code to allow configuration data to be read from in-tree blob + objects is in. This may help working in a bare repository and + submodule updates. + + * Fetching between repositories with many refs employed O(n^2) + algorithm to match up the common objects, which has been corrected. + + * The original way to specify remote repository using .git/branches/ + used to have a nifty feature. The code to support the feature was + still in a function but the caller was changed not to call it 5 + years ago, breaking that feature and leaving the supporting code + unreachable. The dead code has been removed. + + * "git pack-refs" that races with new ref creation or deletion have + been susceptible to lossage of refs under right conditions, which + has been tightened up. + + * We read loose and packed references in two steps, but after + deciding to read a loose ref but before actually opening it to read + it, another process racing with us can unlink it, which would cause + us to barf. The codepath has been updated to retry when such a + race is detected, instead of outright failing. + + * Uses of the platform fnmatch(3) function (many places in the code, + matching pathspec, .gitignore and .gitattributes to name a few) + have been replaced with wildmatch, allowing "foo/**/bar" that would + match foo/bar, foo/a/bar, foo/a/b/bar, etc. + + * Memory ownership and lifetime rules for what for-each-ref feeds to + its callbacks have been clarified (in short, "you do not own it, so + make a copy if you want to keep it"). + + * The revision traversal logic to improve culling of irrelevant + parents while traversing a mergy history has been updated. + + * Some leaks in unpack-trees (used in merge, cherry-pick and other + codepaths) have been plugged. + + * The codepath to read from marks files in fast-import/export did not + have to accept anything but 40-hex representation of the object + name. Further, fast-export did not need full in-core object + representation to have parsed wen reading from them. These + codepaths have been optimized by taking advantage of these access + patterns. + + * Object lookup logic, when the object hashtable starts to become + crowded, has been optimized. + + * When TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY setting is used, it was handled somewhat + inconsistently between the test framework and t/Makefile, and logic + to summarize the results looked at a wrong place. + + * "git clone" uses a lighter-weight implementation when making sure + that the history behind refs are complete. + + * Many warnings from sparse source checker in compat/ area has been + squelched. + + * The code to reading and updating packed-refs file has been updated, + correcting corner case bugs. + + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. + + +Fixes since v1.8.3 +------------------ + +Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes since v1.8.3 in the maintenance +track are contained in this release (see release notes to them for +details). + + * Newer Net::SMTP::SSL module does not want the user programs to use + the default behaviour to let server certificate go without + verification, so by default enable the verification with a + mechanism to turn it off if needed. + (merge 35035bb rr/send-email-ssl-verify later to maint). + + * When "git" is spawned in such a way that any of the low 3 file + descriptors is closed, our first open() may yield file descriptor 2, + and writing error message to it would screw things up in a big way. + (merge a11c396 tr/protect-low-3-fds later to maint). + + * The mailmap mechanism unnecessarily downcased the e-mail addresses + in the output, and also ignored the human name when it is a single + character name. + (merge bd23794 jc/mailmap-case-insensitivity later to maint). + + * In two places we did not check return value (expected to be a file + descriptor) correctly. + (merge a77f106 tr/fd-gotcha-fixes later to maint). + + * Logic to auto-detect character encodings in the commit log message + did not reject overlong and invalid UTF-8 characters. + (merge 81050ac bc/commit-invalid-utf8 later to maint). + + * Pass port number as a separate argument when "send-email" initializes + Net::SMTP, instead of as a part of the hostname, i.e. host:port. + This allows GSSAPI codepath to match with the hostname given. + (merge 1a741bf bc/send-email-use-port-as-separate-param later to maint). + + * "git diff" refused to even show difference when core.safecrlf is + set to true (i.e. error out) and there are offending lines in the + working tree files. + (merge 5430bb2 jc/maint-diff-core-safecrlf later to maint). + + * A test that should have failed but didn't revealed a bug that needs + to be corrected. + (merge 94d75d1 jc/t1512-fix later to maint). + + * An overlong path to a .git directory may have overflown the + temporary path buffer used to create a name for lockfiles. + (merge 2fbd4f9 mh/maint-lockfile-overflow later to maint). + + * Invocations of "git checkout" used internally by "git rebase" were + counted as "checkout", and affected later "git checkout -" to the + the user to an unexpected place. + (merge 3bed291 rr/rebase-checkout-reflog later to maint). + + * The configuration variable column.ui was poorly documented. + (merge 5e62cc1 rr/column-doc later to maint). + + * "git name-rev --refs=tags/v*" were forbidden, which was a bit + inconvenient (you had to give a pattern to match refs fully, like + --refs=refs/tags/v*). + (merge 98c5c4a nk/name-rev-abbreviated-refs later to maint). + + * "git apply" parsed patches that add new files, generated by + programs other than Git, incorrectly.
