The fix for this in 1.8.1.2 had performance degradations. * Command line completion code was inadvertently made incompatible wit= h older versions of bash by using a newer array notation. * Scripts to test bash completion was inherently flaky as it was affected by whatever random things the user may have on $PATH. * A fix was added to the build procedure to work around buggy versions of ccache broke the auto-generation of dependencies, which unfortunately is still relevant because some people use ancient distros. * We used to stuff "user@" and then append what we read from /etc/mailname to come up with a default e-mail ident, but a bug lost the "user@" part. * "git am" did not parse datestamp correctly from Hg generated patch, when it is run in a locale outside C (or en). * Attempt to "branch --edit-description" an existing branch, while being on a detached HEAD, errored out. * "git cherry-pick" did not replay a root commit to an unborn branch. * We forgot to close the file descriptor reading from "gpg" output, killing "git log --show-signature" on a long history. * "git rebase --preserve-merges" lost empty merges in recent versions of Git. * Rebasing the history of superproject with change in the submodule has been broken since v1.7.12. * A failure to push due to non-ff while on an unborn branch dereferenced a NULL pointer when showing an error message. Also contains various documentation fixes. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.8.1.2 are as follows: Brandon Casey (3): git-completion.bash: replace zsh notation that breaks bash 3.X git-p4.py: support Python 2.5 git-p4.py: support Python 2.4 Dmitry V.
