1.6.0.1

GIT v1.6.0.1 Release Notes ==========================

Fixes since v1.6.0 ------------------

• "git diff --cc" did not honor content mangling specified by gitattributes and core.autocrlf when reading from the work tree.

• "git diff --check" incorrectly detected new trailing blank lines when whitespace check was in effect.

• "git for-each-ref" tried to dereference NULL when asked for ’%(body)" on a tag with a single incomplete line as its payload.

• "git format-patch" peeked before the beginning of a string when "format.headers" variable is empty (a misconfiguration).

• "git help help" did not work correctly.

• "git mailinfo" (hence "git am") was unhappy when MIME multipart message contained garbage after the finishing boundary.

• "git mailinfo" also was unhappy when the "From: " line only had a bare e-mail address.

• "git merge" did not refresh the index correctly when a merge resulted in a fast-forward.

• "git merge" did not resolve a truly trivial merges that can be done without content level merges.

• "git svn dcommit" to a repository with URL that has embedded usernames did not work correctly.

Contains other various documentation fixes.
