The latest maintenance release Git 1.7.2.3 is available at the usual places:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
git-1.7.2.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball) git-htmldocs-1.7.2.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) git-manpages-1.7.2.3.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in:
RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.7.2.3-1.fc11.$arch.rpm (RPM)
We will soon be preparing for 1.7.3 feature release but during the pre-release freeze period for it, I expect one more maintenance updates to the 1.7.2.X series.
Thanks everybody who contributed to this release to help making git less suck ;-)
Git v1.7.2.3 Release Notes ==========================
Fixes since v1.7.2.2 --------------------
* When people try insane things such as delta-compressing 4GiB files, we threw an assertion failure.
* "git archive" gave the full commit ID for "$Format:%h$".
* "git fetch --tags" did not fetch tags when remote.<nick>.tagopt was set to --no-tags. The command line option now overrides the configuration setting.
* "git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname:short)'" has been completely broken for a long time.
* "git gc" incorrectly pruned a rerere record that was created long time ago but still is actively and repeatedly used.
* "git log --follow -M -p" was seriously broken in 1.7.2, reporting assertion failure.
* Running "git log" with an incorrect option started pager nevertheless, forcing the user to dismiss it.
* "git rebase" did not work well when the user has diff.renames configuration variable set.
* An earlier (and rather old) fix to "git rebase" against a rebased upstream broke a more normal, non rebased upstream case rather badly, attempting to re-apply patches that are already accepted upstream.
* "git submodule sync" forgot to update the superproject's config file when submodule URL changed.
* "git pack-refs --all --prune" did not remove a directory that has become empty.
