Subject[ANNOUNCE] Git 1.6.5.6
From
Date
The latest maintenance release Git 1.6.5.6 is available at the
usual places:

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

git-1.6.5.6.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.6.5.6.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.6.5.6.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)

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

RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.6.5.6-1.fc11.$arch.rpm (RPM)

Hopefully this will be the last update to the 1.6.5.X series before the
upcoming feature release (1.6.6). It fixes a security issue, and users of
older 1.6.5.X series are strongly recommended to update to this version.

Git v1.6.5.6 Release Notes
==========================

Fixes since v1.6.5.5
--------------------

* "git add -p" had a regression since v1.6.5.3 that broke deletion of
non-empty files.

* "git archive -o o.zip -- Makefile" produced an archive in o.zip
but in POSIX tar format.

* Error message given to "git pull --rebase" when the user didn't give
enough clue as to what branch to integrate with still talked about
"merging with" the branch.

* Error messages given by "git merge" when the merge resulted in a
fast-forward still were in plumbing lingo, even though in v1.6.5
we reworded messages in other cases.

* The post-upload-hook run by upload-pack in response to "git fetch" has
been removed, due to security concerns (the hook first appeared in
1.6.5).

----------------------------------------------------------------

Changes since v1.6.5.5 are as follows:

Jan Krüger (1):
pull: clarify advice for the unconfigured error case

Jeff King (1):
add-interactive: fix deletion of non-empty files

Junio C Hamano (3):
Remove post-upload-hook
Fix archive format with -- on the command line
Git 1.6.5.6

Matthieu Moy (2):
merge-recursive: make the error-message generation an extern function
builtin-merge: show user-friendly error messages for fast-forward too.
