···11Fixes since v1.5.6.1
12--------------------
1314+* "git clone" from a remote that is named with url.insteadOf setting in
15+ $HOME/.gitconfig did not work well.
01617+* "git describe --long --tags" segfaulted when the described revision was
18+ tagged with a lightweight tag.
1920* "git diff --check" did not report the result via its exit status
21 reliably.
2223+* When remote side used to have branch 'foo' and git-fetch finds that now
24+ it has branch 'foo/bar', it refuses to lose the existing remote tracking
25+ branch and its reflog. The error message has been improved to suggest
26+ pruning the remote if the user wants to proceed and get the latest set
27+ of branches from the remote, including such 'foo/bar'.
28+29+* "git reset file" should mean the same thing as "git reset HEAD file",
30+ but we required disambiguating -- even when "file" is not ambiguous.
31+32* "git show" segfaulted when an annotated tag that points at another
33 annotated tag was given to it.
3435+* Optimization for a large import via "git-svn" introduced in v1.5.6 had a
36+ serious memory and temporary file leak, which made it unusable for
37+ moderately large import.
38+39+* "git-svn" mangled remote nickname used in the configuration file
40+ unnecessarily.
