RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.5.0.1-1.$arch.rpm (RPM)GIT v1.5.0.1 Release Notes ==========================
Fixes since v1.5.0 ------------------
* Documentation updates
- Clarifications and corrections to 1.5.0 release notes.
- The main documentation did not link to git-remote documentation.
- Clarified introductory text of git-rebase documentation.
- Converted remaining mentions of update-index on Porcelain
documents to git-add/git-rm. - Some i18n.* configuration variables were incorrectly
described as core.*; fixed.* Bugfixes
- git-add and git-update-index on a filesystem on which
executable bits are unreliable incorrectly reused st_mode
bits even when the path changed between symlink and regular
file. - git-daemon marks the listening sockets with FD_CLOEXEC so
that it won't be leaked into the children. - segfault from git-blame when the mandatory pathname
parameter was missing was fixed; usage() message is given
instead. - git-rev-list did not read $GIT_DIR/config file, which means
that did not honor i18n.logoutputencoding correctly.* Tweaks
- sliding mmap() inefficiently mmaped the same region of a
packfile with an access pattern that used objects in the
reverse order. This has been made more efficient.----------------------------------------------------------------
