The latest maintenance release Git v2.16.2 is now available at the usual places, with small fixes that are already in the 'master' front. The tarballs are found at: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.16.2' tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at: url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git url = https://github.com/gitster/git Git v2.16.2 Release Notes = Fixes since v2.16.1 --- * An old regression in "git describe --all $annotated_tag^0" has been fixed. * "git svn dcommit" did not take into account the fact that a svn+ssh:// URL with a username@ (typically used for pushing) refers to the same SVN repository without the username@ and failed when svn.pushmergeinfo option is set. * "git merge -Xours/-Xtheirs" learned to use our/their version when resolving a conflicting updates to a symbolic link. * "git clone $there $here" is allowed even when here directory exists as long as it is an empty directory, but the command incorrectly removed it upon a failure of the operation. * "git stash -- " incorrectly blew away untracked files in the directory that matched the pathspec, which has been corrected. * "git add -p" was taught to ignore local changes to submodules as they do not interfere with the partial addition of regular changes anyway. Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups. Changes since v2.16.1 are as follows: Andreas G. Schacker (1): doc/read-tree: remove obsolete remark Daniel Knittl-Frank (1): describe: prepend "tags/" when describing tags with embedded name Jason Merrill (1): git-svn: fix svn.pushmergeinfo handling of svn+ssh usernames.
