Git v2.7.4 Release Notes
========================
Fixes since v2.7.3
------------------
* Bugfix patches were backported from the 'master' front to plug heap
corruption holes, to catch integer overflow in the computation of
pathname lengths, and to get rid of the name_path API. Both of
these would have resulted in writing over an under-allocated buffer
when formulating pathnames while tree traversal.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Changes since v2.7.3 are as follows:
Jeff King (7):
add helpers for detecting size_t overflow
tree-diff: catch integer overflow in combine_diff_path allocation
http-push: stop using name_path
show_object_with_name: simplify by using path_name()
list-objects: convert name_path to a strbuf
list-objects: drop name_path entirely
list-objects: pass full pathname to callbacks
If there is a new 2.7.x release, does it make sense to cherry-pick this one:
