Recommended update for git
SUSE-SLE-SDK-12-SP2-2017-441
The Git distributed revision control system was updated to version 2.12.0, which brings several fixes and enhancements: - Use of an empty string that is used for 'everything matches' is still warned and Git asks users to use a more explicit '.' for that instead. In the future this warning will be turned into a hard error. - The historical argument order "git merge 'msg' HEAD 'commit'..." has been deprecated for quite some time, and will be removed in a future release. - An ancient script "git relink" has been removed. - The character width table has been updated to match Unicode 9.0. - Commands in the "git diff" and "git log" family by default enable rename detection; use "diff.renames" configuration variable to disable this. - Merging two branches that have no common ancestor with "git merge" is by default forbidden now to prevent creating such an unusual merge by mistake. - Output formats of "git log" that indents the commit log message by 4 spaces now expands HT in the log message by default. The "--no-expand-tabs" option disables this. - "git send-email" now uses a more readable timestamps when formulating a message ID. - The rsync:// transport has been removed. - "git fetch" and friends that make network connections can now be told to only use ipv4 (or ipv6). * Add support for talking http/https over socks proxy. - Fix crash of gitk with --all option in non-English locales. (bsc#951153) - Fix deadlock in signal handler in pager. (bsc#942297) - Introduce new "git-worktree" feature. (bsc#977477, fate#322294) - Introduce SSLCipherList configuration variable to tweak the list of cipher suite to be used with libcURL when talking with https:// sites. - Put git-credential-cache--daemon into git-core, it is needed for git-credential-cache. (bsc#939065) - "git push" has been taught an "--atomic" option that makes a push that updates more than one ref an "all-or-none" affair. - Output from "git log --decorate" now distinguishes between a detached HEAD vs. a HEAD that points at a branch. - A new "push.followTags" configuration turns the "--follow-tags" option on by default for the 'git push' command. - Allow snapshot generation in Apparmor profile. (bsc#905707) - Default pager configuration no longer wraps long lines. - "git push" now uses "simple" semantics by default instead of old "matching", use variable "push.default" to revert. - "git add -u" and "git add -A" operate on entire tree, use "git add -u ." or "git add -A ." for current directory only. - "git add 'path'" is the same as "git add -A 'path'" now, use "git add --ignore-removal 'path'" for previous behavior. - "-q" option of "git diff-files" has been removed. To ignore deletion, use "git diff-files --diff-filter=d". - Default prefix for "git svn" remote-tracking branches changed from refs/remotes to refs/remotes/origin/ unless with "--prefix". For a comprehensive list of changes please refer to the package's change log.
