And other minor fixes and documentation updates. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Changes since v1.7.4 are as follows: Chris Packham (1): clone: fixup recurse_submodules option Jakub Narebski (1): gitweb: Mention optional Perl modules in INSTALL Jens Lehmann (2): t5526: Fix wrong argument order in "git config" pull: Document the "--[no-]recurse-submodules" options Johannes Sixt (2): start_command: flush buffers in the WIN32 code path as well t4120-apply-popt: help systems with core.filemode=false Jonathan Nieder (5): quote.h: simplify the inclusion fast-import: clarify documentation of "feature" command fast-import: introduce "feature notes" command compat: helper for detecting unsigned overflow svn-fe: warn about experimental status Junio C Hamano (3): fsck: drop unused parameter from traverse_one_object() fsck: do not give up too early in fsck_dir() Git 1.7.4.1 Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy (4): diff: support --cached on unborn branches Add const to parse_{commit,tag}_buffer() sha1_file.c: move find_cached_object up so sha1_object_info can use it sha1_object_info: examine cached_object store too Pat Thoyts (2): t3509: use unconstrained initial test to setup repository. t7407: fix line endings for mingw build Shawn O.
