GIT v1.6.2.1 Release Notes ========================== Fixes since v1.6.2 ------------------ * .gitignore learned to handle backslash as a quoting mechanism for comment introduction character "#". * timestamp output in --date=relative mode used to display timestamps that are long time ago in the default mode; it now uses "N years M months ago", and "N years ago". * git-add -i/-p now works with non-ASCII pathnames. * "git hash-object -w" did not read from the configuration file from the correct .git directory. * git-send-email learned to correctly handle multiple Cc: addresses. Reproducible: Always
The renamed git 1.6.1 ebuild to git-1.6.1.2.ebuild works fine for me. As far I can see now there are no changes needed in the noperl patch. A simple version bump seems possible.
Sorry. I mixed up the version numbers. Of course I meant to rename the git 1.6.2 ebuild to "git-1.6.2.1.ebuild".

Did you run the test suite with git 1.6.2 or with git 1.6.2.1 (renamed ebuild of git 1.6.2 to 1.6.2.1)? And if you use git 1.6.2.1 does these failures also appear with git 1.6.2? Have you even run the git test suite with an older version of git and it succeeded? Did you compile your git version with or without the perl use-flag. Could be a problem of the noperl patch or a migration of that patch from an older version.
1.6.2.2 is in CVS now. 1.6.2.1 did fail my tests too, but .2 is better.
