| 1 | +Git v2.10.3 Release Notes |
| 2 | +========================= |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +Fixes since v2.10.2 |
| 5 | +------------------- |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | + * Extract a small helper out of the function that reads the authors |
| 8 | + script file "git am" internally uses. |
| 9 | + This by itself is not useful until a second caller appears in the |
| 10 | + future for "rebase -i" helper. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | + * The command-line completion script (in contrib/) learned to |
| 13 | + complete "git cmd ^mas<HT>" to complete the negative end of |
| 14 | + reference to "git cmd ^master". |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | + * "git send-email" attempts to pick up valid e-mails from the |
| 17 | + trailers, but people in real world write non-addresses there, like |
| 18 | + "Cc: Stable < [email protected]> # 4.8+", which broke the output depending |
| 19 | + on the availability and vintage of Mail::Address perl module. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | + * The code that we have used for the past 10+ years to cycle |
| 22 | + 4-element ring buffers turns out to be not quite portable in |
| 23 | + theoretical world. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | + * "git daemon" used fixed-length buffers to turn URL to the |
| 26 | + repository the client asked for into the server side directory |
| 27 | + path, using snprintf() to avoid overflowing these buffers, but |
| 28 | + allowed possibly truncated paths to the directory. This has been |
| 29 | + tightened to reject such a request that causes overlong path to be |
| 30 | + required to serve. |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | + * Recent update to git-sh-setup (a library of shell functions that |
| 33 | + are used by our in-tree scripted Porcelain commands) included |
| 34 | + another shell library git-sh-i18n without specifying where it is, |
| 35 | + relying on the $PATH. This has been fixed to be more explicit by |
| 36 | + prefixing $(git --exec-path) output in front. |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | + * Fix for a racy false-positive test failure. |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | + * Portability update and workaround for builds on recent Mac OS X. |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | + * Update to the test framework made in 2.9 timeframe broke running |
| 43 | + the tests under valgrind, which has been fixed. |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | + * Improve the rule to convert "unsigned char [20]" into "struct |
| 46 | + object_id *" in contrib/coccinelle/ |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups. |
