This is a bugfix release with the following changes:
-
Negative gitignore rules should match git's behavior. For example,
given a gitignore rule of*.testand a second gitignore rule of
!dir/*, we would incorrect apply the negation rules. With this
fix, we behave like git. -
Always provide custom transport implementations with the URL in the
action function. v0.27.7 included a change that would erroneously
provide NULL to subsequent calls to the action function. This is
fixed. -
Fix several bugs parsing malformed commits and malformed trees.
-
Allow configuration file directory locations to be specified as
/dev/null. -
Ensure that when an error occurs reading from the loose ODB backend
that we do not segfault. -
Ensure that when a filter stream application fails that we do not
segfault. -
Ensure that any configuration reading failures are propagated while
loading submodule information. -
Peel annotated tags fully when creating an annotated commit.
-
Ensure that numbers are parsed correctly in a variety of places.
