We should have created the commit without\n these paths.\n\n * \"git diff --stat\" said \"files\", \"insertions\", and \"deletions\" even\n when it is showing one \"file\", one \"insertion\" or one \"deletion\".\n\n * The output from \"git diff --stat\" for two paths that have the same\n amount of changes showed graph bars of different length due to the\n way we handled rounding errors.\n\n * \"git grep\" did not pay attention to -diff (hence -binary) attribute.\n\n * The transport programs (fetch, push, clone)ignored --no-progress\n and showed progress when sending their output to a terminal.\n\n * Sometimes error status detected by a check in an earlier phase of\n \"git receive-pack\" (the other end of \"git push\") was lost by later\n checks, resulting in false indication of success.\n\n * \"git rev-list --verify\" sometimes skipped verification depending on\n the phase of the moon, which dates back to 1.7.8.x series.\n\n * Search box in \"gitweb\" did not accept non-ASCII characters correctly.\n\n * Search interface of \"gitweb\" did not show multiple matches in the same file\n correctly.\n\nAlso contains minor fixes and documentation updates.\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nChanges since v1.7.9.1 are as follows:\n\nChristian Hammerl (1):\n completion: Allow dash as the first character for __git_ps1\n\nClemens Buchacher (4):\n git rev-list: fix invalid typecast\n push/fetch/clone --no-progress suppresses progress output\n t5541: check error message against the real port number used\n do not override receive-pack errors\n\nFelipe Contreras (3):\n completion: work around zsh option propagation bug\n completion: use ls -1 instead of rolling a loop to do that ourselves\n completion: simplify __gitcomp and __gitcomp_nl implementations\n\nJakub Narebski (2):\n gitweb: Allow UTF-8 encoded CGI query parameters and path_info\n gitweb: Fix 'grep' search for multiple matches in file\n\nJeff King (12):\n grep: make locking flag global\n grep: move sha1-reading mutex into low-level code\n grep: refactor the concept of \"grep source\" into an object\n convert git-grep to use grep_source interface\n grep: drop grep_buffer's \"name\" parameter\n grep: cache userdiff_driver in grep_source\n grep: respect diff attributes for binary-ness\n grep: load file data after checking binary-ness\n grep: pre-load userdiff drivers when threaded\n standardize and improve lookup rules for external local repos\n prompt: clean up strbuf usage\n prompt: fall back to terminal if askpass fails\n\nJiang Xin (2):\n i18n: git-commit whence_s \"merge/cherry-pick\" message\n i18n: format_tracking_info \"Your branch is behind\" message\n\nJohannes Sixt (1):\n Makefile: fix syntax for older make\n\nJunio C Hamano (8):\n mailmap: always return a plain mail address from map_user()\n git checkout -b: allow switching out of an unborn branch\n commit: ignore intent-to-add entries instead of refusing\n diff --stat: show bars of same length for paths with same amount of changes\n Update draft release notes to 1.7.9.2\n Update draft release notes to 1.7.9.2\n Update draft release notes to 1.7.9.2\n Git 1.7.9.2\n\nMatthieu Moy (1):\n fsck: give accurate error message on empty loose object files\n\nNamhyung Kim (2):\n ctype.c only wants git-compat-util.h\n ctype: implement islower/isupper macro\n\nNguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy (3):\n sha1_file.c: move the core logic of find_pack_entry() into fill_pack_entry()\n find_pack_entry(): do not keep packed_git pointer locally\n Use correct grammar in diffstat summary line\n\nPhilip Jägenstedt (2):\n completion: remove stale \"to submit patches\" documentation\n completion: use tabs for indentation\n\nRalf Thielow (2):\n completion: --edit-description option for git-branch\n completion: --list option for git-branch\n\nTheodore Ts'o (1):\n Fix build problems related to profile-directed optimization\n\nZbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek (2):\n pager: find out the terminal width before spawning the pager\n man: rearrange git synopsis to fit in 80 lines\n\nДилян Палаузов (1):\n Makefile: introduce CHARSET_LIB to link with -lcharset\n"},{"id":"185265","messageId":"CAMK1S_iKPDWYBVDgHNRvwhbJ+Cy9NdJP+2pa8JOst1vKDs3gCA@mail.gmail.com","threadId":"29703","inReplyTo":"7vbooq6zq2.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org","subject":"Re: [ANNOUNCE] Git 1.7.9.2","fromName":"Sitaram Chamarty","fromEmail":"sitaramc@gmail.com","sentAt":"2012-02-23T11:36:47Z","receivedAt":"2012-02-23T11:36:47Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"sitaramc@gmail.com","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/43316?v=4"},"body":"On Thu, Feb 23, 2012 at 8:08 AM, Junio C Hamano wrote:\n\n>  * \"git rev-list --verify\" sometimes skipped verification depending on\n>   the phase of the moon, which dates back to 1.7.8.x series.\n\nphase of the moon?
