Subject[ANNOUNCE] Git 1.7.5.1
Date
The latest maintenance release Git 1.7.5.1 is available at the
usual places:

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

git-1.7.5.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.7.5.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.7.5.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)

The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in:

RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.7.5.1-1.fc13.$arch.rpm (RPM)



Git v1.7.5.1 Release Notes
==========================

Fixes since v1.7.5
------------------

* When an object "$tree:$path" does not exist, if $path does exist in the
subtree of $tree that corresponds to the subdirectory the user is in,
git now suggests using "$tree:./$path" in addition to the advice to use
the full path from the root of the working tree.

* The "--date=relative" output format used to say "X years, 12 months"
when it should have said "X+1 years".

* The smart-HTTP transfer was broken in 1.7.5 when the client needs
to issue a small POST (which uses content-length) and then a large
POST (which uses chunked) back to back.

* "git clean" used to fail on an empty directory that is not readable,
even though rmdir(2) could remove such a directory. Now we attempt it
as the last resort.

* The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to totally
ignore a change that only rearranged lines within a file. Such a
change now counts as at least a minimum but non zero change.

* The "--dirstat" option of "diff" family of commands used to use the
pathname in the original, instead of the pathname in the result,
when renames are involved.

* "git pack-object" did not take core.bigfilethreashold into account
(unlike fast-import); now it does.

* "git reflog" ignored options like "--format=.." on the command line.

* "git stash apply" used to refuse to work if there was any change in
the working tree, even when the change did not overlap with the change
the stash recorded.

* "git stash apply @{99999}" was not diagnosed as an error, even when you
did not have that many stash entries.

* An error message from "git send-email" to diagnose a broken SMTP
connection configuration lacked a space between "hello=<smtp-domain>"
and "port=<smtp-server-port>".

And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
