Git v2.53 Release Notes
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
UI, Workflows & Features
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
* "git maintenance" command learned "is-needed" subcommand to tell if
|
|
it is necessary to perform various maintenance tasks.
|
|
|
|
* "git replay" (experimental) learned to perform ref updates itself
|
|
in a transaction by default, instead of emitting where each refs
|
|
should point at and leaving the actual update to another command.
|
|
|
|
* "git blame" learns "--diff-algorithm=<algo>" option.
|
|
|
|
* "git repo info" learned "--all" option.
|
|
|
|
* Both "git apply" and "git diff" learn a new whitespace error class,
|
|
"incomplete-line".
|
|
|
|
* Add a new manual that describes the data model.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* The list of packfiles used in a running Git process is moved from
|
|
the packed_git structure into the packfile store.
|
|
|
|
* Some ref backend storage can hold not just the object name of an
|
|
annotated tag, but the object name of the object the tag points at.
|
|
The code to handle this information has been streamlined.
|
|
|
|
* As "git diff --quiet" only cares about the existence of any
|
|
changes, disable rename/copy detection to skip more expensive
|
|
processing whose result will be discarded anyway.
|
|
|
|
* A part of code paths that deals with loose objects has been cleaned
|
|
up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.52
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
* Ever since we added whitespace rules for this project, we misspelt
|
|
an entry, which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge 358e94dc70 jc/gitattributes-whitespace-no-indent-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* The code to expand attribute macros has been rewritten to avoid
|
|
recursion to avoid running out of stack space in an uncontrolled
|
|
way.
|
|
(merge 42ed046866 jk/attr-macroexpand-wo-recursion later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Adding a repository that uses a different hash function is a no-no,
|
|
but "git submodule add" did nt prevent it, which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge 6fe288bfbc bc/submodule-force-same-hash later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* An earlier check added to osx keychain credential helper to avoid
|
|
storing the credential itself supplied was overeager and rejected
|
|
credential material supplied by other helper backends that it would
|
|
have wanted to store, which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge 4580bcd235 kn/osxkeychain-idempotent-store-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* The "git repo structure" subcommand tried to align its output but
|
|
mixed up byte count and display column width, which has been
|
|
corrected.
|
|
(merge 7a03a10a3a jx/repo-struct-utf8width-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Yet another corner case fix around renames in the "ort" merge
|
|
strategy.
|
|
(merge a562d90a35 en/ort-rename-another-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Test leakfix.
|
|
(merge 14b561e768 jk/test-mktemp-leakfix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Update a version of action used at the GitHub Actrions CI.
|
|
(merge cd99203f86 js/ci-github-setup-go-update later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* The "return errno = EFOO, -1" construct, which is heavily used in
|
|
compat/mingw.c and triggers warnings under "-Wcomma", has been
|
|
rewritten to avoid the warnings.
|
|
(merge af3919816f js/mingw-assign-comma-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Makefile based build have recently been updated to build a
|
|
libgit.a that also has reftable and xdiff objects; CMake based
|
|
build procedure has been updated to match.
|
|
(merge b0d5c88cca js/cmake-libgit-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Under-allocation fix.
|
|
(merge d22a488482 js/wincred-get-credential-alloc-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "git worktree list" attempts to show paths to worktrees while
|
|
aligning them, but miscounted display columns for the paths when
|
|
non-ASCII characters were involved, which has been corrected.
|
|
(merge 08dfa59835 pw/worktree-list-display-width-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* "Windows+meson" job at the GitHub Actions CI was hard to debug, as
|
|
it did not show and save failed test artifacts, which has been
|
|
corrected.
|
|
(merge 17bd1108ea jk/ci-windows-meson-test-fix later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Emulation code clean-up.
|
|
(merge 2367c6bcd6 gf/win32-pthread-cond-wait-err later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Various issues detected by Asan have been corrected.
|
|
(merge a031b6181a jk/asan-bonanza later to maint).
|
|
|
|
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
|
|
(merge 46207a54cc qj/doc-http-bad-want-response later to maint).
|
|
(merge df90eccd93 kh/doc-commit-extra-references later to maint).
|
|
(merge f18aa68861 rs/xmkstemp-simplify later to maint).
|
|
(merge fddba8f737 ja/doc-synopsis-style later to maint).
