Git v1.7.4.3 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.7.4.2 -------------------- * "git apply" used to confuse lines updated by previous hunks as lines that existed before when applying a hunk, contributing misapplication of patches with offsets. * "git branch --track" (and "git checkout --track --branch") used to allow setting up a random non-branch that does not make sense to follow as the "upstream". The command correctly diagnoses it as an error. * "git checkout $other_branch" silently removed untracked symbolic links in the working tree that are in the way in order to check out paths under it from the named branch. * "git cvsimport" did not bail out immediately when the cvs server cannot be reached, spewing unnecessary error messages that complain about the server response that it never got. * "git diff --quiet" did not work very well with the "--diff-filter" option. * "git grep -n" lacked a long-hand synonym --line-number. * "git stash apply" reported the result of its operation by running "git status" from the top-level of the working tree; it should (and now does) run it from the user's working directory. And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
