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 v1.8.4.3 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.8.4.2
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* The interaction between use of Perl in our test suite and NO_PERL
|
|
has been clarified a bit.
|
|
|
|
* A fast-import stream expresses a pathname with funny characters by
|
|
quoting them in C style; remote-hg remote helper (in contrib/)
|
|
forgot to unquote such a path.
|
|
|
|
* One long-standing flaw in the pack transfer protocol used by "git
|
|
clone" was that there was no way to tell the other end which branch
|
|
"HEAD" points at, and the receiving end needed to guess. A new
|
|
capability has been defined in the pack protocol to convey this
|
|
information so that cloning from a repository with more than one
|
|
branches pointing at the same commit where the HEAD is at now
|
|
reliably sets the initial branch in the resulting repository.
|
|
|
|
* We did not handle cases where http transport gets redirected during
|
|
the authorization request (e.g. from http:// to https://).
|
|
|
|
* "git rev-list --objects ^v1.0^ v1.0" gave v1.0 tag itself in the
|
|
output, but "git rev-list --objects v1.0^..v1.0" did not.
|
|
|
|
* The fall-back parsing of commit objects with broken author or
|
|
committer lines were less robust than ideal in picking up the
|
|
timestamps.
|
|
|
|
* Bash prompting code to deal with an SVN remote as an upstream
|
|
were coded in a way not supported by older Bash versions (3.x).
|
|
|
|
* "git checkout topic", when there is not yet a local "topic" branch
|
|
but there is a unique remote-tracking branch for a remote "topic"
|
|
branch, pretended as if "git checkout -t -b topic remote/$r/topic"
|
|
(for that unique remote $r) was run. This hack however was not
|
|
implemented for "git checkout topic --".
|
|
|
|
* Coloring around octopus merges in "log --graph" output was screwy.
|
|
|
|
* We did not generate HTML version of documentation to "git subtree"
|
|
in contrib/.
|
|
|
|
* The synopsis section of "git unpack-objects" documentation has been
|
|
clarified a bit.
|
|
|
|
* An ancient How-To on serving Git repositories on an HTTP server
|
|
lacked a warning that it has been mostly superseded with more
|
|
modern way.
|
|
|
|
Also contains a handful of trivial code clean-ups, documentation
|
|
updates, updates to the test suite, etc.
