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 v2.4.1 Release Notes
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v2.4
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* The usual "git diff" when seeing a file turning into a directory
|
|
showed a patchset to remove the file and create all files in the
|
|
directory, but "git diff --no-index" simply refused to work. Also,
|
|
when asked to compare a file and a directory, imitate POSIX "diff"
|
|
and compare the file with the file with the same name in the
|
|
directory, instead of refusing to run.
|
|
|
|
* The default $HOME/.gitconfig file created upon "git config --global"
|
|
that edits it had incorrectly spelled user.name and user.email
|
|
entries in it.
|
|
|
|
* "git commit --date=now" or anything that relies on approxidate lost
|
|
the daylight-saving-time offset.
|
|
|
|
* "git cat-file bl $blob" failed to barf even though there is no
|
|
object type that is "bl".
|
|
|
|
* Teach the codepaths that read .gitignore and .gitattributes files
|
|
that these files encoded in UTF-8 may have UTF-8 BOM marker at the
|
|
beginning; this makes it in line with what we do for configuration
|
|
files already.
|
|
|
|
* Access to objects in repositories that borrow from another one on a
|
|
slow NFS server unnecessarily got more expensive due to recent code
|
|
becoming more cautious in a naive way not to lose objects to pruning.
|
|
|
|
* We avoid setting core.worktree when the repository location is the
|
|
".git" directory directly at the top level of the working tree, but
|
|
the code misdetected the case in which the working tree is at the
|
|
root level of the filesystem (which arguably is a silly thing to
|
|
do, but still valid).
|
|
|
|
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code
|
|
clean-ups.
