# 1.7.4.4

Git v1.7.4.4 Release Notes ==========================

Fixes since v1.7.4.3 --------------------

- Compilation of sha1_file.c on BSD platforms were broken due to our recent use of getrlimit() without including \<sys/resource.h\>.

<!-- -->

- "git config" did not diagnose incorrect configuration variable names.

<!-- -->

- "git format-patch" did not wrap a long subject line that resulted from rfc2047 encoding.

<!-- -->

- "git instaweb" should work better again with plackup.

<!-- -->

- "git log --max-count=4 -Sfoobar" now shows 4 commits that changes the number of occurrences of string "foobar"; it used to scan only for 4 commits and then emitted only matching ones.

<!-- -->

- "git log --first-parent --boundary \$c^..\$c" segfaulted on a merge.

<!-- -->

- "git pull" into an empty branch should have behaved as if fast-forwarding from emptiness to the version being pulled, with the usual protection against overwriting untracked files.

<!-- -->

- "git submodule" that is run while a merge in the superproject is in conflicted state tried to process each conflicted submodule up to three times.

<!-- -->

- "git status" spent all the effort to notice racily-clean index entries but didn’t update the index file to help later operations go faster in some cases.

And other minor fixes and documentation updates.
