Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Git 1.6.6.rc4
Date: Sun, 20 Dec 2009 14:59:47 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vmy1d9rq4.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> (raw)
A release candidate Git 1.6.6.rc4 is available at the usual places
for final testing:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/
git-1.6.6.rc4.tar.{gz,bz2} (source tarball)
git-htmldocs-1.6.6.rc4.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
git-manpages-1.6.6.rc4.tar.{gz,bz2} (preformatted docs)
The RPM binary packages for a few architectures are found in:
testing/git-*-1.6.6.rc4-1.fc11.$arch.rpm (RPM)
Hopefully I'll do the final this Wednesday to make 1.6.6 a holiday gift to
everybody.
I would very much prefer news outlets like kernelpodcast.org and lwn.net
_not_ to say "... is released; it comes with many _fixes_". Fixes to
released versions have indeed been included in the 'master' branch, but
they all appear in the maintenance release. The main _point_ of using a
new feature release like 1.6.6 is to get new _features_, so it is more
appropriate to say "it comes with many new features."
Thanks for all contributors who have worked hard to whip this release into
shape.
