New Features

  • 552840 Teach JGit to handle external diff/merge tools defined in .gitattributes
  • 356832 Support external diff and merge tools, see https://git-scm.com/docs/git-mergetool
    - Adapt diff- and merge tool code for PGM and EGit usage

  • 579325 CommitConfig: add support for core.commentChar
  • 546567 [push, lfs] Tell the pre-push hook whether the push is a dry run

Performance Improvements

Bug Fixes

  • Fix connection leak for smart http connections
  • 579445 Remove stray files (probes or lock files) created by background threads

  • 579550 GpgSigner: prevent class lock inversion on the default signer

  • 575629 [sideband] Ensure last bit of progress channel is written
