GIT v1.5.2.1 Release Notes
==========================
Fixes since v1.5.2
------------------
* Bugfixes
- Temporary files that are used when invoking external diff
programs did not tolerate a long TMPDIR.
- git-daemon did not notice when it could not write into its
pid file.
- git-status did not honor core.excludesFile configuration like
git-add did.
- git-annotate did not work from a subdirectory while
git-blame did.
- git-cvsserver should have disabled access to a repository
with "gitcvs.pserver.enabled = false" set even when
"gitcvs.enabled = true" was set at the same time. It
didn't.
- git-cvsimport did not work correctly in a repository with
its branch heads were packed with pack-refs.
- ident unexpansion to squash "$Id: xxx $" that is in the
repository copy removed incorrect number of bytes.
- git-svn misbehaved when the subversion repository did not
provide MD5 checksums for files.
- git rebase (and git am) misbehaved on commits that have '\n'
(literally backslash and en, not a linefeed) in the title.
- code to decode base85 used in binary patches had one error
return codepath wrong.
- RFC2047 Q encoding output by git-format-patch used '_' for a
space, which is not understood by some programs. It uses =20
which is safer.
- git-fastimport --import-marks was broken; fixed.
- A lot of documentation updates, clarifications and fixes.
