(exclamation), which may confuse users to expect a "negative match", which does not exist. This has been demoted to a warning; such an entry is still ignored. * "git apply --summary" has been taught to make sure the similarity value shown in its output is sensible, even when the input had a bogus value. * "git clean" showed what it was going to do, but sometimes ended up finding that it was not allowed to do so, which resulted in a confusing output (e.g. after saying that it will remove an untracked directory, it found an embedded git repository there which it is not allowed to remove). It now performs the actions and then reports the outcome more faithfully. * "git clone" used to allow --bare and --separate-git-dir=3D$there options at the same time, which was nonsensical. * "git cvsimport" mishandled timestamps at DST boundary. * We used to have an arbitrary 32 limit for combined diff input, resulting in incorrect number of leading colons shown when showing the "--raw --cc" output. * The smart HTTP clients forgot to verify the content-type that comes back from the server side to make sure that the request is being handled properly. * "git help remote-helpers" failed to find the documentation. * "gitweb" pages served over HTTPS, when configured to show picon or gravatar, referred to these external resources to be fetched via HTTP, resulting in mixed contents warning in browsers. Also contains various documentation fixes. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.8.1.4 are as follows: Andrej E Baranov (1): gitweb: refer to picon/gravatar images over the same scheme Andrew Wong (1): Documentation/githooks: Fix linkgit Asheesh Laroia (1): git-mergetool: print filename when it contains % Ben Walton (3): Move Git::SVN::get_tz to Git::get_tz_offset perl/Git.pm: fix get_tz_offset to properly handle DST boundary ca= ses cvsimport: format commit timestamp ourselves without using strfti= me Brad King (1): Documentation/submodule: Add --force to update synopsis David Aguilar (3): mergetools/p4merge: Honor $TMPDIR for the /dev/null placeholder difftool--helper: fix printf usage p4merge: fix printf usage Erik Faye-Lund (1): parse-options: report uncorrupted multi-byte options Greg Price (1): Documentation: "advice" is uncountable Jeff King (2): http_request: reset "type" strbuf before adding Makefile: avoid infinite loop on configure.ac change Jiang Xin (1): Add utf8_fprintf helper that returns correct number of columns John Keeping (3): Rename {git- =3D> git}remote-helpers.txt builtin/apply: tighten (dis)similarity index parsing t4038: add tests for "diff --cc --raw " Junio C Hamano (7): doc: mention tracking for pull.default combine-diff: lift 32-way limit of combined diff t5551: fix expected error output user-manual: typofix (ofthe->of the) Prepare for 1.8.1.5 Update draft release notes to 1.8.1.5 Git 1.8.1.5 Matthieu Moy (1): git.txt: update description of the configuration mechanism Michael J Gruber (1): git-bisect.txt: clarify that reset quits bisect Nguy=E1=BB=85n Th=C3=A1i Ng=E1=BB=8Dc Duy (1): clone: forbid --bare --separate-git-dir Shawn O.
