This is primarily to push out fixes to two regressions that seem to affect many people, namely, the ".gitignore !directory" bug and the "daemon cannot read from $HOME owned by root" bug. The release tarballs are found at: http://code.google.com/p/git-core/downloads/list and their SHA-1 checksums are: 32562a231fe4422bc033bf872fffa61f41ee2669 git-1.8.3.1.tar.gz 94d48f6f8684aec851124e7d0b835b338a9187ad git-htmldocs-1.8.3.1.tar.gz 0cd759579d4bd75f1cf1ba073b1ab96c49390426 git-manpages-1.8.3.1.tar.gz The following public repositories all have a copy of the v1.8.3.1 tag and the maint branch that the tag points at: url = https://kernel.googlesource.com/pub/scm/git/git url = git://repo.or.cz/alt-git.git url = https://code.google.com/p/git-core/ url = git://git.sourceforge.jp/gitroot/git-core/git.git url = git://git-core.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/git-core/git-core url = https://github.com/gitster/git Also, http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/ has copies of the release tarballs. Git v1.8.3.1 Release Notes ======================== Fixes since v1.8.3 ------------------ * When $HOME is misconfigured to point at an unreadable directory, we used to complain and die. The check has been loosened. * Handling of negative exclude pattern for directories "!dir" was broken in the update to v1.8.3. Also contains a handful of trivial code clean-ups, documentation updates, updates to the test suite, etc.
