We presently use the ".txt" extension for our AsciiDoc files. While not wrong, most editors do not associate this extension with AsciiDoc, meaning that contributors don't get automatic editor functionality that could be useful, such as syntax highlighting and prose linting. It is much more common to use the ".adoc" extension for AsciiDoc files, since this helps editors automatically detect files and also allows various forges to provide rich (HTML-like) rendering. Let's do that here, renaming all of the files and updating the includes where relevant. Adjust the various build scripts and makefiles to use the new extension as well. Note that this should not result in any user-visible changes to the documentation. Signed-off-by: brian m. carlson <sandals@crustytoothpaste.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

Git v1.7.10.2 Release Notes
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.7.10.1
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* The test scaffolding for git-daemon was flaky.
|
|
|
|
* The test scaffolding for fast-import was flaky.
|
|
|
|
* The filesystem boundary was not correctly reported when .git directory
|
|
discovery stopped at a mount point.
|
|
|
|
* HTTP transport that requires authentication did not work correctly when
|
|
multiple connections are used simultaneously.
|
|
|
|
* Minor memory leak during unpack_trees (hence "merge" and "checkout"
|
|
to check out another branch) has been plugged.
|
|
|
|
* In the older days, the header "Conflicts:" in "cherry-pick" and "merge"
|
|
was separated by a blank line from the list of paths that follow for
|
|
readability, but when "merge" was rewritten in C, we lost it by
|
|
mistake. Remove the newline from "cherry-pick" to make them match
|
|
again.
|
|
|
|
* The command line parser choked "git cherry-pick $name" when $name can
|
|
be both revision name and a pathname, even though $name can never be a
|
|
path in the context of the command.
|
|
|
|
* The "include.path" facility in the configuration mechanism added in
|
|
1.7.10 forgot to interpret "~/path" and "~user/path" as it should.
|
|
|
|
* "git config --rename-section" to rename an existing section into a
|
|
bogus one did not check the new name.
|
|
|
|
* The "diff --no-index" codepath used limited-length buffers, risking
|
|
pathnames getting truncated. Update it to use the strbuf API.
|
|
|
|
* The report from "git fetch" said "new branch" even for a non branch
|
|
ref.
|
|
|
|
* The http-backend (the server side of the smart http transfer) used
|
|
to overwrite GIT_COMMITTER_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL with the
|
|
value obtained from REMOTE_USER unconditionally, making it
|
|
impossible for the server side site-specific customization to use
|
|
different identity sources to affect the names logged. It now uses
|
|
REMOTE_USER only as a fallback value.
|
|
|
|
* "log --graph" was not very friendly with "--stat" option and its
|
|
output had line breaks at wrong places.
|
|
|
|
* Octopus merge strategy did not reduce heads that are recorded in the
|
|
final commit correctly.
|
|
|
|
* "git push" over smart-http lost progress output a few releases ago;
|
|
this release resurrects it.
|
|
|
|
* The error and advice messages given by "git push" when it fails due
|
|
to non-ff were not very helpful to new users; it has been broken
|
|
into three cases, and each is given a separate advice message.
|
|
|
|
* The insn sheet given by "rebase -i" did not make it clear that the
|
|
insn lines can be re-ordered to affect the order of the commits in
|
|
the resulting history.
|
|
|
|
* "git repack" used to write out unreachable objects as loose objects
|
|
when repacking, even if such loose objects will immediately pruned
|
|
due to its age.
|
|
|
|
* A contrib script "rerere-train" did not work out of the box unless
|
|
user futzed with her $PATH.
|
|
|
|
* "git rev-parse --show-prefix" used to emit nothing when run at the
|
|
top-level of the working tree, but now it gives a blank line.
|
|
|
|
* The i18n of error message "git stash save" was not properly done.
|
|
|
|
* "git submodule" used a sed script that some platforms mishandled.
|
|
|
|
* When using a Perl script on a system where "perl" found on user's
|
|
$PATH could be ancient or otherwise broken, we allow builders to
|
|
specify the path to a good copy of Perl with $PERL_PATH. The
|
|
gitweb test forgot to use that Perl when running its test.
|
|
|
|
Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
