from today's version in such a situation.

+
In Git 2.0, "git add <path>" will behave as "git add -A <path>", so
33
+
that "git add dir/" will notice paths you removed from the directory
34
+
and record the removal. Versions before Git 2.0, including this
35
+
release, will keep ignoring removals, but the users who rely on this
36
+
behaviour is encouraged to use "git add --ignore-removal <path>" and
37
+
get used to it.

order to decide which of unpack-objects or index-pack to run, it
223

returned without closing the error stream, which led to a hang

sideband thread.

226
232

* Zsh completion forgot that '%' character used to signal untracked
228
234
files needs to be escaped with another '%'.

236
* A commit object whose author or committer ident are malformed
232
237
crashed some code that trusted that a name, an email and an
233
238
timestamp can always be found in it.

235
239
236
240
* When "upload-pack" fails while generating a pack in response to
237
241
"git fetch" (or "git clone"), the receiving side mistakenly said
238
242
there was a programming error to trigger the die handler
239

recursively.

Later open may return file descriptor #2 for unrelated purpose, and

error reporting code may write into them.

* "git show-branch" was not prepared to show a very long run of
264
266
ancestor operators e.g. foobar^2~2^2^2^2...^2~4 correctly.

-
(merge aaa07e3 jk/show-branch-strbuf later to maint).

--diff-algorithm=algo".

any message as its one of the prerequistes.

* "git log -S/-G" started paying attention to textconv filter, but
280
278
there was no way to disable this. Make it honor --no-textconv

option.

* When used with "-d temporary-directory" option, "git filter-branch"

failed to come back to the original working tree to perform the

final clean-up procedure.

* "git merge $(git rev-parse v1.8.2)" behaved quite differently from

* Fix 1.8.1.x regression that stopped matching "dir" (without
298
293
trailing slash) to a directory "dir".

304
299
305
300
* The prompt string generator (in contrib/completion/) did not notice
306
301

310
304
"--option=value" form.

(merge 862ae6c rs/submodule-summary-limit later to maint).
312
305

* "index-pack --fix-thin" used an uninitialized value to compute
314
307
delta depths of objects it appends to the resulting pack.

-
(merge 57165db jk/index-pack-correct-depth-fix later to maint).

308
317
309
* "index-pack --verify-stat" used a few counters outside protection
318
310
of mutex, possibly showing incorrect numbers.

(merge 8f82aad nd/index-pack-threaded-fixes later to maint).
320

321
312
* The code to keep track of what directory names are known to Git on
322

platforms with case insensitive filesystems can get confused upon a

330
320
331
321
* "git cmd -- ':(top'" was not diagnosed as an invalid syntax, and
332
322
instead the parser kept reading beyond the end of the string.
