• Git 2.54.0 released

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Tue Apr 21 06:40:26 2026

    Git maintainer Junio Hamano has announced
    Git 2.54.0, which includes contributions from 137 people; 66 of those
    people are first-time contributors to the project. Changes include the
    addition of Git history rewriting, Git's web interface (gitweb)
    "has been taught to be mobile friendly", and much more. See the
    announcement for all improvements, additions, and bug fixes. Hamano
    is now taking a short break:

    I will go offline for a couple of weeks starting this evening,
    hopefully after updating 'next' and possibly also pushing out the
    first batch of the new cycle. There is no designated interim
    maintainer this time, but I trust that the community can self
    organize during my absense, if the shape of the release and the tree
    turns out to be super bad ;-).

    See this
    GitHub blog entry for highlights from this release.
