Git v1.6.6.2 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.6.6.1 -------------------- * recursive merge didn't correctly diagnose its own programming errors, and instead caused the caller to segfault. * The new "smart http" aware clients probed the web servers to see if they support smart http, but did not fall back to dumb http transport correctly with some servers. * Time based reflog syntax e.g. "@{yesterday}" didn't diagnose a misspelled time specification and instead assumed "@{now}". * "git archive HEAD -- no-such-directory" produced an empty archive without complaining. * "git blame -L start,end -- file" misbehaved when given a start that is larger than the number of lines in the file. * "git checkout -m" didn't correctly call custom merge backend supplied by the end user. * "git config -f <file>" misbehaved when run from a subdirectory. * "git cvsserver" didn't like having regex metacharacters (e.g. '+') in CVSROOT environment. * "git fast-import" did not correctly handle large blobs that may bust the pack size limit. * "git gui" is supposed to work even when launched from inside a .git directory. * "git gui" misbehaved when applying a hunk that ends with deletion. * "git imap-send" did not honor imap.preformattedHTML as documented. * "git log" family incorrectly showed the commit notes unconditionally by mistake, which was especially irritating when running "git log --oneline". * "git status" shouldn't require an write access to the repository. Other minor documentation updates are included.
