* Various git-svn updates.
+ * Clean-up of the C part of i18n (but not l10n---please wait)
+ continues.
+
* When an object "$tree:$path" does not exist, if $path does exist in the
subtree of $tree that corresponds to the subdirectory the user is in,
git now suggests using "$tree:./$path" in addition to the advice to use
* "git format-patch" learned "--quiet" option to suppress the output of
the names of generated files.
+ * "git log" and friends learned a new "--notes" option to replace the
+ "--show-notes" option. Unlike "--show-notes", "--notes=<ref>" does
+ not imply showing the default notes.
+
* "git merge" learned "-" as a short-hand for "the previous branch", just
like the way "git checkout -" works.
* "git stash apply" can now apply to a working tree with changes as long
as there is no overlapping change as the stash being applied.
+ * "git submodule update" learned "--force" option to get rid of local
+ changes in submodules and replace them with the up-to-date version.
+
* "git stash apply @{99999}" now is diagnosed as an error, unless you
really have that many stash entries.
Unless otherwise noted, all the fixes in 1.7.5.X maintenance track are
included in this release.
- * The "--date=relative" output format used to say "X years, 12 months"
- when it should have said "X+1 years".
- (merge mg/x-years-12-months later)
-
* "git config" used to choke with an insanely long line.
(merge ef/maint-strbuf-init later)
when renames are involved.
(merge jh/dirstat for the above two later)
+ * "diff -M --cached" used to use unmerged path as a possible rename
+ source candidate, which made no sense.
+ (merge mz/maint-rename-unmerged later)
+
* "git format-patch" when run with "--quiet" option used to produce a
nonsense result that consists of alternating empty output.
(merge early part of cn/format-patch-quiet later)
