Cogito-0.15.1 (important bugfix)
Hello, I'm announcing the release of 0.15.1 of Cogito, the human-friendly UI for Linus' GIT. You can find it at http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/cogito/ when kernel.org mirroring will go through another short period of actually working. ;-) I'm cc'ing the Linux Kernel mailing list since this release contains a bugfix for an ugly potential data loss bug, which actually probably covers nearly all Cogito users (it was introduced in cogito-0.11.2). If you had some local uncommitted changes and merge new stuff (either using cg-update or cg-merge), in some cases it would silently trash your local changes. It was caused by a bogus git-checkout-cache invocation pointed out by Linus. Other interesting stuff: * cg-clean -d would remove the arch/ and include/ subdirs in Linux kernel - just any directories containing only subdirectories (this isn't as horrible as it sounds since you didn't lose anything precious you didn't want to lose - you can recover by just doing cg-restore) * Support for fetching from URLs of the 'git' protocol scheme * cg-log -d filters based on date * cg-diff works on BSD now * Merge cg-(commit|parent|tree)-id to cg-object-id * Some significant documentation enhancements * Some new tests in the testsuite (for cg-merge ;-) * Usual squad of minor bugfixes Happy hacking, -- Petr "Pasky" Baudis Stuff: http://pasky.or.cz/ VI has two modes: the one in which it beeps and the one in which it doesn't. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ |
