The latest maintenance release GIT 1.6.3.4 is available at the usual places:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
git-1.6.3.4.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball) git-htmldocs-1.6.3.4.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs) git-manpages-1.6.3.4.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in:
RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.6.3.4-1.fc9.$arch.rpm (RPM)
This is primarily to flush accumulated fixes on the 'maint' branch before going forward with 1.6.4 series.
GIT v1.6.3.4 Release Notes ==========================
Fixes since v1.6.3.3 --------------------
* "git add --no-ignore-errors" did not override configured add.ignore-errors configuration.
* "git apply --whitespace=fix" did not fix trailing whitespace on an incomplete line.
* "git branch" opened too many commit objects unnecessarily.
* "git checkout -f $commit" with a path that is a file (or a symlink) in the work tree to a commit that has a directory at the path issued an unnecessary error message.
* "git diff -c/--cc" was very inefficient in coalescing the removed lines shared between parents.
* "git diff -c/--cc" showed removed lines at the beginning of a file incorrectly.
* "git remote show nickname" did not honor configured remote.nickname.uploadpack when inspecting the branches at the remote.
* "git request-pull" when talking to the terminal for a preview showed some of the output in the pager.
* "git request-pull start nickname [end]" did not honor configured remote.nickname.uploadpack when it ran git-ls-remote against the remote repository to learn the current tip of branches.
Includes other documentation updates and minor fixes.
