[New Topics]
* mv/maint-branch-m-symref (Sat Nov 1 00:25:44 2008 +0100) 5 commits
+ update-ref --no-deref -d: handle the case when the pointed ref is
packed
+ git branch -m: forbid renaming of a symref
+ Fix git update-ref --no-deref -d.
+ rename_ref(): handle the case when the reflog of a ref does not
exist
+ Fix git branch -m for symrefs.
* rs/blame (Sat Oct 25 15:31:36 2008 +0200) 5 commits
- blame: use xdi_diff_hunks(), get rid of struct patch
- add xdi_diff_hunks() for callers that only need hunk lengths
- Allow alternate "low-level" emit function from xdl_diff
- Always initialize xpparam_t to 0
- blame: inline get_patch()
* ds/uintmax-config (Sun Oct 26 03:52:47 2008 -0800) 2 commits
- Add Makefile check for FreeBSD 4.9-SECURITY
- Build: add NO_UINTMAX_T to support ancient systems
I amended the topmost one to widen the applicability of this new feature
to all FreeBSD 4.*, not limited to 4.9-SECURITY; testing before this hits
'next' is appreciated.
* ds/autoconf (Sun Nov 2 01:04:46 2008 -0700) 2 commits
- DONTMERGE: fixup with a convenience macro
- autoconf: Add link tests to each AC_CHECK_FUNC() test
The topmost one is my attempt to simplify the new way of checking; the
resulting configure.ac produces the identical configure script with or
without it, so I think it is Ok, but testing before this hits 'next' is
appreciated. If all goes well, I think the two should be squashed into
one patch.
