Git v2.30.1 Release Notes
=========================
This release is primarily to merge fixes accumulated on the 'master'
front to prepare for 2.31 release that are still relevant to 2.30.x
maintenance track.
Fixes since v2.30
-----------------
* "git fetch --recurse-submodules" failed to update a submodule
when it has an uninitialized (hence of no interest to the user)
sub-submodule, which has been corrected.
* Command line error of "git rebase" are diagnosed earlier.
* "git stash" did not work well in a sparsely checked out working
tree.
* Some tests expect that "ls -l" output has either '-' or 'x' for
group executable bit, but setgid bit can be inherited from parent
directory and make these fields 'S' or 's' instead, causing test
failures.
* "git for-each-repo --config=<var> <cmd>" should not run <cmd> for
any repository when the configuration variable <var> is not defined
even once.
* "git mergetool --tool-help" was broken in 2.29 and failed to list
all the available tools.
* Fix for procedure to building CI test environment for mac.
* Newline characters in the host and path part of git:// URL are
now forbidden.
* When more than one commit with the same patch ID appears on one
side, "git log --cherry-pick A...B" did not exclude them all when a
commit with the same patch ID appears on the other side. Now it
does.
* Documentation for "git fsck" lost stale bits that has become
incorrect.
* Doc for packfile URI feature has been clarified.
* The implementation of "git branch --sort" wrt the detached HEAD
display has always been hacky, which has been cleaned up.
* Our setting of GitHub CI test jobs were a bit too eager to give up
once there is even one failure found. Tweak the knob to allow
other jobs keep running even when we see a failure, so that we can
find more failures in a single run.
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
