Git 2.23 Release Notes
======================
Updates since v2.22
-------------------
Backward compatibility note
* The "--base" option of "format-patch" computed the patch-ids for
prerequisite patches in an unstable way, which has been updated to
compute in a way that is compatible with "git patch-id --stable".
UI, Workflows & Features
* The "git fast-export/import" pair has been taught to handle commits
with log messages in encoding other than UTF-8 better.
* In recent versions of Git, per-worktree refs are exposed in
refs/worktrees/<wtname>/ hierarchy, which means that worktree names
must be a valid refname component. The code now sanitizes the names
given to worktrees, to make sure these refs are well-formed.
* "git merge" learned "--quit" option that cleans up the in-progress
merge while leaving the working tree and the index still in a mess.
* "git format-patch" learns a configuration to set the default for
its --notes=<ref> option.
* The code to show args with potential typo that cannot be
interpreted as a commit-ish has been improved.
Performance, Internal Implementation, Development Support etc.
* Update supporting parts of "git rebase" to remove code that should
no longer be used.
* Developer support to emulate unsatisfied prerequisites in tests to
ensure that the remainer of the tests still succeeds when tests
with prerequisites are skipped.
* "git update-server-info" learned not to rewrite the file with the
same contents.
* The way of specifying the path to find dynamic libraries at runtime
has been simplified. The old default to pass -R/path/to/dir has been
replaced with the new default to pass -Wl,-rpath,/path/to/dir,
which is the more recent GCC uses. Those who need to build with an
old GCC can still use "CC_LD_DYNPATH=-R"
Fixes since v2.22
-----------------
* A relative pathname given to "git init --template=<path> <repo>"
ought to be relative to the directory "git init" gets invoked in,
but it instead was made relative to the repository, which has been
corrected.
(merge e1df7fe43f nd/init-relative-template-fix later to maint).
* "git worktree add" used to fail when another worktree connected to
the same repository was corrupt, which has been corrected.
(merge 105df73e71 nd/corrupt-worktrees later to maint).
* The ownership rule for the file descriptor to fast-import remote
backend was mixed up, leading to unrelated file descriptor getting
closed, which has been fixed.
(merge 3203566a71 mh/import-transport-fd-fix later to maint).
* A "merge -c" instruction during "git rebase --rebase-merges" should
give the user a chance to edit the log message, even when there is
otherwise no need to create a new merge and replace the existing
one (i.e. fast-forward instead), but did not. Which has been
corrected.
* Other code cleanup, docfix, build fix, etc.
