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 v1.8.5.5 Release Notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
Fixes since v1.8.5.4
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
* The pathspec matching code, while comparing two trees (e.g. "git
|
|
diff A B -- path1 path2") was too aggressive and failed to match
|
|
some paths when multiple pathspecs were involved.
|
|
|
|
* "git repack --max-pack-size=8g" stopped being parsed correctly when
|
|
the command was reimplemented in C.
|
|
|
|
* A recent update to "git send-email" broke platforms where
|
|
/etc/ssl/certs/ directory exists but cannot be used as SSL_ca_path
|
|
(e.g. Fedora rawhide).
|
|
|
|
* A handful of bugs around interpreting $branch@{upstream} notation
|
|
and its lookalike, when $branch part has interesting characters,
|
|
e.g. "@", and ":", have been fixed.
|
|
|
|
* "git clone" would fail to clone from a repository that has a ref
|
|
directly under "refs/", e.g. "refs/stash", because different
|
|
validation paths do different things on such a refname. Loosen the
|
|
client side's validation to allow such a ref.
|
|
|
|
* "git log --left-right A...B" lost the "leftness" of commits
|
|
reachable from A when A is a tag as a side effect of a recent
|
|
bugfix. This is a regression in 1.8.4.x series.
|
|
|
|
* "git merge-base --octopus" used to leave cleaning up suboptimal
|
|
result to the caller, but now it does the clean-up itself.
|
|
|
|
* "git mv A B/", when B does not exist as a directory, should error
|
|
out, but it didn't.
|
|
|
|
Also contains typofixes, documentation updates and trivial code clean-ups.
