The latest feature release GIT 1.4.3 is available at the usual
places:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
User visible changes, other than bugfixes, since v1.4.2.4 are:
- upload-tar is deprecated but not removed; we now have
upload-archive –format=tar and –format=zip instead.
- ftp:// protocol is supported the same way as http:// and
https://
- git-diff paginates its output to the tty by default. If this
irritates you, using LESS=RF might help.
- git-cherry-pick does not leave often useless “cherry-picked
from” message.
- git-merge-recursive was replaced by a rewritten implemention
in C. The original Python implementation is available as
“recursive-old” strategy for now, but hopefully we can remove
it in the next cycle.
- git-daemon can do name based virtual hosting.
- git-daemon can serve tar and zip snapshots.
- many gitweb tweaks and cleanups.
- git-apply –reverse, –reject.
- git-diff –color highlights whitespace errors.
- git-diff –stat can be taught to use non-default widths.
- git-status can use colors.
- many more commands are built-in.
and two days later:
The latest maintenance release GIT 1.4.3.1 is available at the
usual places:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
This is primarily to work around changes in the recent GNU diff output
format. Also it contains irritation fix for “git diff” which now
paginates its output by default.
