Git v2.39.3 Release Notes
=========================
This release is primarily to merge fixes accumulated on the 'master'
front to prepare for 2.40 release that are still relevant to 2.39.x
maintenance track.
Fixes since v2.39.2
-------------------
* Stop running win+VS build by default.
* CI updates. We probably want a clean-up to move the long shell
script embedded in yaml file into a separate file, but that can
come later.
* Avoid unnecessary builds in CI, with settings configured in
ci-config.
* Redefining system functions for a few functions did not follow our
usual "implement git_foo() and #define foo(args) git_foo(args)"
pattern, which has broken build for some folks.
* Deal with a few deprecation warning from cURL library.
* Newer regex library macOS stopped enabling GNU-like enhanced BRE,
where '\(A\|B\)' works as alternation, unless explicitly asked with
the REG_ENHANCED flag. "git grep" now can be compiled to do so, to
retain the old behaviour.
* When given a pattern that matches an empty string at the end of a
line, the code to parse the "git diff" line-ranges fell into an
infinite loop, which has been corrected.
* Fix the sequence to fsync $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file that forgot to
flush its output to the disk..
* "git diff --relative" did not mix well with "git diff --ext-diff",
which has been corrected.
* The logic to see if we are using the "cone" mode by checking the
sparsity patterns has been tightened to avoid mistaking a pattern
that names a single file as specifying a cone.
* Doc update for environment variables set when hooks are invoked.
* Document ORIG_HEAD a bit more.
* "git ls-tree --format='%(path) %(path)' $tree $path" showed the
path three times, which has been corrected.
* Document that "branch -f <branch>" disables only the safety to
avoid recreating an existing branch.
* Clarify how "checkout -b/-B" and "git branch [-f]" are similar but
different in the documentation.
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
