| 1 | +Git v2.42 Release Notes |
| 2 | +======================= |
| 3 | + |
| 4 | +UI, Workflows & Features |
| 5 | + |
| 6 | + * "git pack-refs" learns "--include" and "--exclude" to tweak the ref |
| 7 | + hierarchy to be packed using pattern matching. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc. |
| 11 | + |
| 12 | + * "git diff-tree" has been taught to take advantage of the |
| 13 | + sparse-index feature. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Fixes since v2.41 |
| 17 | +----------------- |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | + * "git tag" learned to leave the "$GIT_DIR/TAG_EDITMSG" file when the |
| 20 | + command failed, so that the user can salvage what they typed. |
| 21 | + (merge 08c12ec1d0 kh/keep-tag-editmsg-upon-failure later to maint). |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | + * The "-s" (silent, squelch) option of the "diff" family of commands |
| 24 | + did not interact with other options that specify the output format |
| 25 | + well. This has been cleaned up so that it will clear all the |
| 26 | + formatting options given before. |
| 27 | + (merge 9d484b92ed jc/diff-s-with-other-options later to maint). |
| 28 | + |

| 31 | + |
| 32 | + * Some atoms that can be used in "--format=<format>" for "git ls-tree" |
| 33 | + were not supported by "git ls-files", even though they were relevant |
| 34 | + in the context of the latter. |
| 35 | + (merge 4d28c4f75f zh/ls-files-format-atoms later to maint). |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | + * Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc. |
