This also improves the + behaviour when Git is misconfigured to enable http.emptyAuth + against a server that does not authenticate without a username + (i.e. not using Kerberos etc., which makes http.emptyAuth + pointless). + + * Windows port wants to use OpenSSL's implementation of SHA-1 + routines, so let them. + + * Add 32-bit Linux variant to the set of platforms to be tested with + Travis CI. + + * When a redirected http transport gets an error during the + redirected request, we ignored the error we got from the server, + and ended up giving a not-so-useful error message. + + * The patch subcommand of "git add -i" was meant to have paths + selection prompt just like other subcommand, unlike "git add -p" + directly jumps to hunk selection. Recently, this was broken and + "add -i" lost the paths selection dialog, but it now has been + fixed. + + * Git v2.12 was shipped with an embarrassing breakage where various + operations that verify paths given from the user stopped dying when + seeing an issue, and instead later triggering segfault. + + * The code to parse "git log -L..." command line was buggy when there + are many ranges specified with -L; overrun of the allocated buffer + has been fixed. + + * The command-line parsing of "git log -L" copied internal data + structures using incorrect size on ILP32 systems. + +Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
