It's Magit! A Git Porcelain inside Emacs
=========================================
Magit is an interface to the version control system Git, implemented
as an Emacs package. Magit aspires to be a complete Git porcelain.
While we cannot (yet) claim that Magit wraps and improves upon each
and every Git command, it is complete enough to allow even experienced
Git users to perform almost all of their daily version control tasks
directly from within Emacs. While many fine Git clients exist, only
Magit and Git itself deserve to be called porcelains.
For more information about Magit, see http://magit.vc.
Magit v2.8.0 Release Notes
==========================
Released 21 August 2016 by Jonas Bernoulli.
We are pleased to announce the release of Magit version 2.8.0,
representing 124 commits by 11 people over 3 months.
Also see http://emacsair.me/2016/08/21/magit-2.8.
Changes since v2.7.0
--------------------
* Added several new functions that are suitable values for
`magit-display-buffer-function':
`magit-display-buffer-same-window-except-diff-v1',
`magit-display-buffer-fullframe-status-v1',
`magit-display-buffer-fullframe-status-topleft-v1', and
`magit-display-buffer-fullcolumn-most-v1'.
* Added new commands `magit-list-repositories' and related new option
`magit-repolist-columns'.
* Added new commands `magit-list-submodules and related new option
`magit-submodule-list-columns'.
* Added new command `magit-branch-orphan'.
* Added new command `magit-log-move-to-parent'.
* Added support for globbing in file arguments of diff and log
commands.
* Added support for showing and copying bad commit identified by git
bisect.
* Added new option `magit-log-output-coding-system'.
* Added new option `magit-no-message', which can be used to suppress
certain messages whose usefulness are being disputed.
* Taught `magit-find-file-noselect' and `magit-find-index-noselect' to
use Emacs' encoding detection, and enable `revert-buffer' to work in
those buffers. This makes `magit-ediff-*' commands more useful for
files with non-standard encoding.
* Taught `magit-insert-bisect-rest' to show the log graph by default.
The new option `magit-bisect-show-graph' controls this.
* Taught `magit-insert-submodules' to display more information.
* When a refresh causes the previously current hunk section to
disappear, which happens when it was applied in some way, then we
attempt to move to a sibling hunk. When that succeeds, then that is
now considered a proper move and `magit-section-movement-hook' is
called, which in turn may cause the current hunk to be recentered.
* In addition to the directory, each member of the value of option
`magit-repository-directories' can now specify the depth to look for
repositories inside that directory, overriding the default depth
specified using the option `magit-repository-directories-depth'.
* Blob visiting buffers can now be reverted, which is useful when they
visit a reference.
* Command `magit-stage' can now be used outside of Magit buffers.
* Commands that read a branch or commit from the user now also offer
tags as completion candidates.
* Taught `magit-insert-worktrees' to use relative filenames.
Fixes since v2.7.0
------------------
* Function `magit-get-all' did split multi-line values into multiple
values.
* Function `magit-subtree-read-prefix' which is used in order to read
the `--prefix' argument from the subtree popup was missing.
* Command `magit-blame' failed when run in a blob buffer for a file
located in a subdirectory.
* Command `magit-diff-visit-file' didn't visit a blob when called
inside a `magit-stash-mode' buffer.
* Command `magit-submodule-add' did not allow picking a path that
does not exist yet and read the path before the url.
* Command `magit-submodule-setup' did update existing modules, which
can cause them to become detached.
* Command `magit-popup-describe-function' could create an extra window
on wide frames.
* Commands `magit-diff-show-or-scroll-{up,down}' failed to scroll
stash buffers.
* Mode `git-rebase-mode' did not respect the Git variable
`core.commentChar'.
* Sections in the process buffer sometimes had invalid parent
sections, causing movement and visibility commands to fail, and
expected Git errors not to be handled gracefully in some cases.
* Merges where not performed asynchronously, which made it impossible
to read a passphrase from the user, needed for commit signing.
* In bare repositories tracked files were listed as deleted.
This release also contains typofixes, documentation updates, code
clean-ups, bug fixes, and other small to medium improvements.
