Git v1.7.6 Release Notes (draft)
========================
Updates since v1.7.5
--------------------
* Various git-svn updates.
* When an object "$tree:$path" does not exist, if $path does exist in the
subtree of $tree that corresponds to the subdirectory the user is in,
git now suggests using "$tree:./$path" in addition to the advice to use
the full path from the root of the working tree.
* "git blame" learned "--abbrev[=<n>]" option to control the minimum
number of hexdigits shown for commit object names.
* "git clean" used to fail on an empty directory that is not readable,
even though rmdir(2) could remove such a directory. Now we attempt it
as the last resort.
* "git diff -C -C" used to disable the rename detection entirely when
there are too many copy candidate paths in the tree; now it falls
back to "-C" when doing so would keep the copy candidate paths
under the rename detection limit.
* "git format-patch" learned "--quiet" option to suppress the output of
the names of generated files.
* "git merge" learned "-" as a short-hand for "the previous branch", just
like the way "git checkout -" works.
* "git pack-object" now takes core.bigfilethreashold into account, just
like fast-imoprt does.
* "git reflog" allows options like "--format=.." to be given.
* "git stash apply" can now apply to a working tree with changes as long
as there is no overlapping change as the stash being applied.
* "git stash apply @{99999}" now is diagnosed as an error, unless you
really have that many stash entries.
Also contains various documentation updates.
Fixes since v1.7.5
------------------
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.5.X maintenance track are
included in this release.
* The "--date=relative" output format used to say "X years, 12 months"
when it should have said "X+1 years".
(merge mg/x-years-12-months later)
* "git config" used to choke with an insanely long line.
(merge ef/maint-strbuf-init later)
* The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to totally
ignore a change that only rearranged lines within a file. Such a
change now counts as at least a minimum but non zero change.
* The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to use the
pathname in the original, instead of the pathname in the result,
when renames are involved.
(merge jh/dirstat for the above two later)
* "git format-patch" when run with "--quiet" option used to produce a
nonsense result that consists of alternating empty output.
(merge early part of cn/format-patch-quiet later)
* "git stash -p --no-keep-index" and "git stash --no-keep-index -p" now
mean the same thing.
(merge dm/stash-k-i-p later)
* "git upload-pack" (hence "git push" over git native protocol) had a
subtle race condition that could lead to a deadlock.
(merge jk/maint-upload-pack-shallow later)
