Subject[ANNOUNCE] Git v2.25.2
Date
The latest maintenance release Git v2.25.2 is now available at the
usual places. These merge down various fixes that have been merged
to 'master' and will be part of the upcoming v2.26.0 release.

The tarballs are found at:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/

The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.25.2'
tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at:

url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git
url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git

Git 2.25.2 Release Notes
========================

Fixes since v2.25.1
-------------------

* Minor bugfixes to "git add -i" that has recently been rewritten in C.

* An earlier update to show the location of working tree in the error
message did not consider the possibility that a git command may be
run in a bare repository, which has been corrected.

* The "--recurse-submodules" option of various subcommands did not
work well when run in an alternate worktree, which has been
corrected.

* Running "git rm" on a submodule failed unnecessarily when
.gitmodules is only cache-dirty, which has been corrected.

* "git rebase -i" identifies existing commits in its todo file with
their abbreviated object name, which could become ambigous as it
goes to create new commits, and has a mechanism to avoid ambiguity
in the main part of its execution. A few other cases however were
not covered by the protection against ambiguity, which has been
corrected.

* The index-pack code now diagnoses a bad input packstream that
records the same object twice when it is used as delta base; the
code used to declare a software bug when encountering such an
input, but it is an input error.

* The code to automatically shrink the fan-out in the notes tree had
an off-by-one bug, which has been killed.

* "git check-ignore" did not work when the given path is explicitly
marked as not ignored with a negative entry in the .gitignore file.

* The merge-recursive machinery failed to refresh the cache entry for
a merge result in a couple of places, resulting in an unnecessary
merge failure, which has been fixed.

* Fix for a bug revealed by a recent change to make the protocol v2
the default.

* "git merge signed-tag" while lacking the public key started to say
"No signature", which was utterly wrong. This regression has been
reverted.

* MinGW's poll() emulation has been improved.

* "git show" and others gave an object name in raw format in its
error output, which has been corrected to give it in hex.

* Both "git ls-remote -h" and "git grep -h" give short usage help,
like any other Git subcommand, but it is not unreasonable to expect
that the former would behave the same as "git ls-remote --head"
(there is no other sensible behaviour for the latter). The
documentation has been updated in an attempt to clarify this.

Also contains various documentation updates, code clean-ups and minor fixups.
