Revision 9231f500c394ede405fcfdca151dd7758ce99ced authored by Thomas Guyot-Sionnest on 22 April 2008, 10:07:47 UTC, committed by Junio C Hamano on 23 April 2008, 04:39:10 UTC 
git-svn bug with blank commits and author file
 
When trying to import from svn using an author file, git-svn bails out
if it encounters a blank author. The attached patch changes this
behavior and allow using the author file with blanks authors.

I came across this bug while importing from a cvs2svn repo where the
initial revision (1) has a blank author. This doesn't break the behavior
of bailing out when an unknown author is encountered.

GIT v1.5.3.4 Release Notes
==========================

Fixes since v1.5.3.3
--------------------

 * Change to "git-ls-files" in v1.5.3.3 that was introduced to support
   partial commit of removal better had a segfaulting bug, which was
   diagnosed and fixed by Keith and Carl.

 * Performance improvements for rename detection has been backported
   from the 'master' branch.

 * "git-for-each-ref --format='%(numparent)'" was not working
   correctly at all, and --format='%(parent)' was not working for
   merge commits.

 * Sample "post-receive-hook" incorrectly sent out push
   notification e-mails marked as "From: " the committer of the
   commit that happened to be at the tip of the branch that was
   pushed, not from the person who pushed.

 * "git-remote" did not exit non-zero status upon error.

 * "git-add -i" did not respond very well to EOF from tty nor
   bogus input.

 * "git-rebase -i" squash subcommand incorrectly made the
   author of later commit the author of resulting commit,
   instead of taking from the first one in the squashed series.

 * "git-stash apply --index" was not documented.

 * autoconfiguration learned that "ar" command is found as "gas" on
   some systems.
