GIT v1.5.1.4 Release Notes

Fixes since v1.5.1.3

• Bugfixes

  • "git-http-fetch" did not work around a bug in libcurl earlier than 7.16 (curl_multi_remove_handle() was broken).

  • "git cvsserver" handles a file that was once removed and then added again correctly.

  • import-tars script (in contrib/) handles GNU tar archives that contain pathnames longer than 100 bytes (long-link extension) correctly.

  • xdelta test program did not build correctly.

  • gitweb sometimes tried incorrectly to apply function to decode utf8 twice, resulting in corrupt output.

  • "git blame -C" mishandled text at the end of a group of lines.

  • "git log/rev-list --boundary" did not produce output correctly without --left-right option.

  • Many documentation updates.
