The new mode + is enabled for all users by default. It may be disabled before + loading magit by setting `magit-auto-revert-mode' (or the obsolete + alias `magit-revert-buffers') to nil. To disable the mode after + loading magit, a call to (magit-auto-revert-mode -1) is required. + #2474 + +* The option `magit-refresh-status-buffer' was added, allowing users + to prevent automatic refreshes of the status buffer for performance + reasons. + +* All of Git's push-related variables are now honored. #2414 + +* In addition to the upstream branch, the push-remote (configured + using `branch.<name>.pushRemote' or `remote.pushDefault') is now + also fully supported. #2414 + +* The status buffer now features up to four logs listing unpulled and + unpushed commits. Two for the upstream and two for the push-remote. + #2414 + +* The branch popup now shows the most important Git variables that are + in some way related to branches. The values of these variables can + now be conveniently changed from that popup. #2414 + +* The fetch, pull, push, and rebase popups now feature an action which + acts on the push-remote, another which acts on the upstream, and yet + another which acts on any other source or target. For each of these + actions the respective branch is shown in the popup. + + The actions in the push popup are displayed even if the respective + variables are unset - they then offer to set these variables before + pushing. Setting `magit-push-current-set-remote-if-missing' to nil + disables this. + + Many key bindings were changed for consistency and safety reasons. + Likewise many commands were renamed and their behavior was adjusted. + Some new commands, related to the push-remote, were added. #2414 + +* The command `magit-push-implicitly' was removed from the push popup. + The command's doc-string explains how to put it back. If these + instructions are followed, then the popup shows what will happen if + the command is used. #2453 + +* The command `magit-push-to-remote' was added. The command's + doc-string explains how to add it to the push popup. #2453 + +* The option `magit-push-always-verify' was removed. That was only a + temporary kludge to keep users from shooting themselves in the foot. + This is no longer necessary because one now always sees where one is + about to push to. #2414 + +* The popup command `magit-pull-and-fetch-popup' was added as a + possible replacement for the separate `magit-push-popup' and + `magit-fetch-popup'. #2452 + +* The option `magit-branch-prefer-remote-upstream' was added for users + who prefer to always use remote branches as upstreams. #2447 + +* The options `magit-clone-set-remote.pushDefault' and + `magit-remote-add-set-remote.pushDefault' were added. #2447 + +* When Git is run for side-effects and exits with a non-zero status, + then the respective error message is now inserted into the status + buffer. This should help those users who do not see that message + when it is being displayed in the echo area. + +* Popups gained support for a new event type `:variable', which can be + used to change the value of Git variables. This can only be used in + combination with Magit (just `magit-popup.el' by itself is not + sufficient). #2409 + +* The backward-compatibility kludge `magit-branch-manager' has been + removed. The one and only binding to show the refs buffer now is + "y"; the "b v" binding has been removed. + +* The command `with-editor-finish' now runs the new hook + `with-editor-post-finish-hook'. + +* The command `magit-diff-visit-file' now runs the new hook + `magit-diff-visit-file-hook'. + +* When the upstream branch or push remote is configured but the + respective branch does not actually exist, then that is now reported + in the header of the status buffer. #2390 + +* The header line about the upstream branch in the status buffer is + now prefixed with either "Merge" or "Rebase", depending on the value + of `branch.<current-branch>.rebase'. #2390 + +* `magit-define-popup' learned two new arguments, `:setup-function' and + `:refresh-function'. These arguments should be used instead of the + MODE argument, which is now deprecated. #2389 + +* Negative text properties are no longer faked; that was just too ugly + and inefficient. Since v2.1.0 Magit no longer sets the background + color for any faces except for those related to diffs. Third-party + themes which still set the background color of non-diff faces have + to be adjusted, because the background color of these faces would be + shadowed by the highlighting of the current section. This does not + apply to diff-related faces because diff sections are highlighted + differently from other sections. #2387 + +* The commands `git-rebase-move-line-up' and `git-rebase-move-line-down' + have been extended. When a region is active, they now operate on + all lines touched by the region, not just the current line. In + addition, a numeric prefix can now be given to specify how many + lines the current line or selection is moved across. + +* The option `magit-popup-display-action' was added. + +This release also contains the changes described in the v2.3.1 release +notes, as well as various other documentation fixes, code clean-ups, +bug fixes, and other small to medium improvements. + +Authors +------- + + 226 Jonas Bernoulli + 22 Kyle Meyer + 10 Noam Postavsky + 1 Carl Lieberman + 1 Damien Cassou + 1 David L.
