The latest feature release GIT 1.1.0 is available at the usual places:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
git-1.1.0.tar.{gz,bz2} (tarball) RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.1.0-1.$arch.rpm (RPM)
This contains all the fixes present in 1.0.8, with the following enhancements:
- "git clone -o $name" can name a branch other than "origin" to be used to keep track of upstream (Johannes).
- Easier shared repository setup (Johannes).
- "git describe" command (Linus).
- "git --version" from an interim snapshot gives a more descriptive version name than "1.0-GIT" (Linus).
- "git whatchanged" shows abbreviated object names by default.
- "git checkout -- paths" and "git checkout treeish paths" use cwd relative pathname and work from a subdirectory.
- "git checkout [-b newbranch] branch" works from a subdirectory and works on the entire tree.
- "git ls-tree" shows cwd relative pathnames by default; full pathnames can be obtained with --full-name, just like "git ls-files" (Linus and me).
- "git send-pack" and "git push" notice when the remote end refuses to update a ref (e.g. hooks/update) and exits with an error. This hopefully would help Cogito as well.
- "git fetch" and "git pull" automatically follows remote tags while tracking branches.
- "git ls-files --others" can be used with "--directory" option to omit the contents of directories without any tracked file but instead to show the directories themselves (Linus). "git status" uses this to unclutter "Untracked files" section.
- Optimized "git pack-redundant" (Lukas).
- "git daemon --base-path=/pub/git" can reroot the directory tree exposed to the outside world, similar to DOCUMENT_ROOT (Pasky).
- "git cherry" can be told not to show everything we have (Yann Dirson).
- git URL can use [IPv6address/IPvFuture] literal addresses (Hideaki).
- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
