[ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.4.3.4

From: Junio C Hamano
Date: Sun Nov 05 2006 - 04:02:05 EST


The latest maintenance release GIT 1.4.3.4 is available at the
usual places:

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

git-1.4.3.4.tar.{gz,bz2} (tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.4.3.4.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.4.3.4.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
RPMS/$arch/git-*-1.4.3.4-1.$arch.rpm (RPM)

Among many minor fixes and documentation updates, this contains these
fixes:

- revision traversal now treats --unpacked as commit filter,
not traversal limiter. If you have unpacked commits that are
parents of packed ones which are in turn parents of commits
that are unpacked, running rev-list starting at the latest
unpacked commits used to _stop_ at the first packed commit
and older unpacked commits were not shown. With this update,
the traversal does not stop at packed commits, and shows the
older unpacked commits. The updated semantics is easier to
use with git-repack --unpacked.

- In a repository configured for shared access, if the
permission bits of existing directories are misconfigured
(e.g. running repository commands as root by mistake), a
codepath to create a new object failed with incorrect error
message. Fixed.

- An earlier fix to cope with traditional-style patches that
were generated with --unified=0 broke handling of creation
and deletion diffs in git-apply. Fixed.
