Git 2.51.2 Release Notes
========================
In addition to fixes for an unfortunate regression introduced in Git
2.51.1 that caused "git diff --quiet -w" to be not so quiet when there
are additions, deletions and conflicts, this maintenance release merges
more fixes/improvements that have landed on the master front, primarily
to make the CI part of the system a bit more robust.
Fixes since Git 2.51.1
----------------------
* Recently we attempted to improve "git diff -w --quiet" and friends
to handle cases where patch output would be suppressed, but it
introduced a bug that emits unnecessary output, which has been
corrected.
* The code to squelch output from "git diff -w --name-status"
etc. for paths that "git diff -w -p" would have stayed silent
leaked output from dry-run patch generation, which has been
corrected.
* Windows "real-time monitoring" interferes with the execution of
tests and affects negatively in both correctness and performance,
which has been disabled in Gitlab CI.
* An earlier addition to "git diff --no-index A B" to limit the
output with pathspec after the two directories misbehaved when
these directories were given with a trailing slash, which has been
corrected.
* The "--short" option of "git status" that meant output for humans
and "-z" option to show NUL delimited output format did not mix
well, and colored some but not all things. The command has been
updated to color all elements consistently in such a case.
* Unicode width table update.
* Recent OpenSSH creates the Unix domain socket to communicate with
ssh-agent under $HOME instead of /tmp, which causes our test to
fail doe to overly long pathname in our test environment, which has
been worked around by using "ssh-agent -T".
Also contains various documentation updates, code cleanups and minor fixups.
