Git v1.7.0.1 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.7.0 ------------------ * In a freshly created repository "rev-parse HEAD^0" complained that it is dangling symref, even though "rev-parse HEAD" didn't. * "git show :no-such-name" tried to access the index without bounds check, leading to a potential segfault. * Message from "git cherry-pick" was harder to read and use than necessary when it stopped due to conflicting changes. * We referred to ".git/refs/" throughout the documentation when we meant to talk about abstract notion of "ref namespace". Because people's repositories often have packed refs these days, this was confusing. * "git diff --output=/path/that/cannot/be/written" did not correctly error out. * "git grep -e -pattern-that-begin-with-dash paths..." could not be spelled as "git grep -- -pattern-that-begin-with-dash paths..." which would be a GNU way to use "--" as "end of options". * "git grep" compiled with threading support tried to access an uninitialized mutex on boxes with a single CPU. * "git stash pop -q --index" failed because the unnecessary --index option was propagated to "git stash drop" that is internally run at the end. And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
