- updated to v1.7.9: * gitk updates accumulated since early 2011. * git-gui updated to 0.16.0. * git-p4 (in contrib/) updates. * Git uses gettext to translate its most common interface messages into the user's language if translations are available and the locale is appropriately set. Distributors can drop new PO files in po/ to add new translations. * The code to handle username/password for HTTP transactions used in "git push" & "git fetch" learned to talk "credential API" to external programs to cache or store them, to allow integration with platform native keychain mechanisms. * The input prompts in the terminal use our own getpass() replacement when possible. HTTP transactions used to ask for the username without echoing back what was typed, but with this change you will see it as you type. * The internals of "revert/cherry-pick" have been tweaked to prepare building more generic "sequencer" on top of the implementation that drives them. * "git rev-parse FETCH_HEAD" after "git fetch" without specifying what to fetch from the command line will now show the commit that would be merged if the command were "git pull". * "git add" learned to stream large files directly into a packfile instead of writing them into individual loose object files. * "git checkout -B <current branch> <elsewhere>" is a more intuitive way to spell "git reset --keep <elsewhere>". * "git checkout" and "git merge" learned "--no-overwrite-ignore" option to tell Git that untracked and ignored files are not expendable. * "git commit --amend" learned "--no-edit" option to say that the user is amending the tree being recorded, without updating the (forwarded request 103501 from tiwai) OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/103515 OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory/git?expand=0&rev=82
