You + can say "git log -- '*.txt'" for example. + + * "git rerere" learned a new subcommand "remaining", that is similar to + "status" that lists the paths that had conflicts that are known to + rerere, but excludes the paths that have already been marked as + resolved in the index from its output. "git mergetool" has been + updated to use this facility. + + * A possible value to the "push.default" configuration variable, + 'tracking', gained a synonym that more naturally describes what it + does, 'upstream'. + +Also contains various documentation updates. + + +Fixes since v1.7.4 +------------------ + +All of the fixes in the v1.7.4.X maintenance series are included in this +release, unless otherwise noted. + + * "git merge" triggers prepare-commit-msg hook.
