From 94c9fd268d4287f6fbfef84793288479905a7e48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 10 Sep 2017 17:06:09 +0900 Subject: RelNotes: further fixes for 2.14.2 from the master front Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano diff --git a/Documentation/RelNotes/2.14.2.txt b/Documentation/RelNotes/2.14.2.txt index 5517afc..bcfe78f 100644 --- a/Documentation/RelNotes/2.14.2.txt +++ b/Documentation/RelNotes/2.14.2.txt @@ -32,4 +32,63 @@ Fixes since v2.14.1 daemon is torn down were flaky. This was fixed by reacting to ECONNRESET and behaving as if we got an EOF. + * Some versions of GnuPG fail to kill gpg-agent it auto-spawned + and such a left-over agent can interfere with a test. Work it + around by attempting to kill one before starting a new test. + + * "git log --tag=no-such-tag" showed log starting from HEAD, which + has been fixed---it now shows nothing. + + * The "tag.pager" configuration variable was useless for those who + actually create tag objects, as it interfered with the use of an + editor. A new mechanism has been introduced for commands to enable + pager depending on what operation is being carried out to fix this, + and then "git tag -l" is made to run pager by default. + + * "git push --recurse-submodules $there HEAD:$target" was not + propagated down to the submodules, but now it is. + + * Commands like "git rebase" accepted the --rerere-autoupdate option + from the command line, but did not always use it. This has been + fixed. + + * "git clone --recurse-submodules --quiet" did not pass the quiet + option down to submodules. + + * "git am -s" has been taught that some input may end with a trailer + block that is not Signed-off-by: and it should refrain from adding + an extra blank line before adding a new sign-off in such a case. + + * "git svn" used with "--localtime" option did not compute the tz + offset for the timestamp in question and instead always used the + current time, which has been corrected. + + * Memory leaks in a few error codepaths have been plugged. + + * bash 4.4 or newer gave a warning on NUL byte in command + substitution done in "git stash"; this has been squelched. + + * "git grep -L" and "git grep --quiet -L" reported different exit + codes; this has been corrected. + + * When handshake with a subprocess filter notices that the process + asked for an unknown capability, Git did not report what program + the offending subprocess was running. This has been corrected. + + * "git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a + taken from a file with CRLF line endings to a file with CRLF line + endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git() + that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index + entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply" + is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all. + This has been fixed. + + * Killing "git merge --edit" before the editor returns control left + the repository in a state with MERGE_MSG but without MERGE_HEAD, + which incorrectly tells the subsequent "git commit" that there was + a squash merge in progress. This has been fixed. + + * "git archive" did not work well with pathspecs and the + export-ignore attribute. + Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. -- cgit v0.10.2-6-g49f6
