[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.4.2.1

From: Junio C Hamano
Date: Wed Sep 13 2006 - 15:19:41 EST


The latest maintenance release GIT 1.4.2.1 is available at the
usual places:

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

git-1.4.2.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.4.2.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.4.2.1.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.4.2.1-1.$arch.rpm (RPM)

This release is primarily for these two fixes:

* git-mv was broken. Notably, this did not work:

git-mv foo foo-renamed

* git-http-fetch failed to follow objects/info/alternates on
the remote side. This broke a fetch from Paul's powerpc.git
repository.

I have built i386 and x86_64 RPM this time, since the machine I
do the former has become available again.
