material has been lifted from "scalar" and made into a feature of
59
59
"git bugreport".
60
60
61
+
* The namespaces used by "log --decorate" from "refs/" hierarchy by
62
+
default has been tightened.
63
+
64
+
* "git rev-list --ancestry-path=C A..B" is a natural extension of
65
+
"git rev-list A..B"; instead of choosing a subset of A..B to those
66
+
that have ancestry relationship with A, it lets a subset with
67
+
ancestry relationship with C.
68
+
69
+
* "scalar" now enables built-in fsmonitor on enlisted repositories,
70
+
when able.
71
+
72
+
* The bash prompt (in contrib/) learned to optionally indicate when
73
+
the index is unmerged.

Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.

136
* The common ancestor negotiation exchange during a "git fetch"
123
137
session now leaves trace log.
124
138
139
+
* Test portability improvements.

Fixes since v2.37
127
144
-----------------
···
155
172
* Recent update to vimdiff layout code has been made more robust
156
173
against different end-user vim settings.
157
174
158
-
* Plug various memory leaks.
159
-
(merge ece3974ba6 ab/leakfix later to maint).
160
-
161
-
* Plug various memory leaks in test-tool commands.
162
-
(merge f40a693450 ab/test-tool-leakfix later to maint).
175
+
* Plug various memory leaks, both in the main code and in test-tool
176
+
commands.
163
177
164
178
* Fixes a long-standing corner case bug around directory renames in
165
179
the merge-ort strategy.
···
218
232
* Gitweb had legacy URL shortener that is specific to the way
219
233
projects hosted on kernel.org used to (but no longer) work, which
220
234
has been removed.
221
-
(merge 75707da4fa jr/gitweb-title-shortening later to maint).
222
235
223
236
* Fix build procedure for Windows that uses CMake so that it can pick
224
237
up the shell interpreter from local installation location.
225
-
(merge 476e54b1c6 ca/unignore-local-installation-on-windows later to maint).
226
238
227
239
* Conditionally allow building Python interpreter on Windows
228
-
(merge 2f0623aaa7 js/mingw-with-python later to maint).
229
240
230
241
* Fix to lstat() emulation on Windows.
231
-
(merge 82ba1191ff js/lstat-mingw-enotdir-fix later to maint).
232
242
233
243
* Older gcc with -Wall complains about the universal zero initializer
234
244
"struct s = { 0 };" idiom, which makes developers' lives
235
245
inconvenient (as -Werror is enabled by DEVELOPER=YesPlease). The
236
246
build procedure has been tweaked to help these compilers.
237
-
(merge b53a5f2416 jk/struct-zero-init-with-older-gcc later to maint).
238
247
239
248

240
249
strategy backend.

+
* A follow-up fix to a fix for a regression in 2.36 around hooks.
248
254
249
255
* Avoid repeatedly running getconf to ask libc version in the test
250
256
suite, and instead just as it once per script.
251
-
(merge a6a58f7801 pw/use-glibc-tunable-for-malloc-optim later to maint).
252
257
253
258
* Platform-specific code that determines if a directory is OK to use
254
259
as a repository has been taught to report more details, especially
255
260
on Windows.
256

262
265
before passing it to the logic to check object sanity, which has
···
264
267
corrected, but to help exiting projects with broken tree objects
265
268
that they cannot fix retroactively, the severity of anomalies this
266
269
code detects has been demoted to "info" for now.
267
-
(merge 4dd3b045f5 jk/fsck-tree-mode-bits-fix later to maint).
268
270
269
271

270
272
commands.
271
-
(merge b15207b8cf vd/sparse-reset-checkout-fixes later to maint).
272
273
273
274
* An earlier optimization discarded a tree-object buffer that is
274
275
still in use, which has been corrected.
···

285

286

287
+
array", and "size of a single element", in this order. A call that
288
+
does not follow this ordering has been corrected.
289
+
(merge c4bbd9bb8f sg/xcalloc-cocci-fix later to maint).
290
+
291
+

292
+
multiple threads, which were left leaked.
