Git 2.8 Officially Released (softpedia.com)

prisoninmate quotes a report from Softpedia: Git 2.8 has been released on March 28, and we have to admit that it comes as a huge surprise to us all. Prominent features of Git 2.8 include parallel fetches of submodules, which allows for the inclusion of other Git repositories in a single Git repo when using the "git submodules" command, support for turning off Git's smudge and clean filters, and support for cloning repos through the rsync protocol. The Git for Windows build received a lot of attention in Git 2.8 and it looks like it's now as comfortable to use as it is on the GNU/Linux and Mac OS X platforms. Also, it is now possible to tell Git not to guess your identity, which, instead, forces you to add a user.name and user.email before doing any commits. Check out the the full release notes for the complete list.

    No, no, that's now how it works. First, you have to piss in a cup and put it the refrigerator for a few hours to get nice and cold. Then you chug it (don't worry, it tastes exactly like budweiser). If possible, take a video.

    Then, and only then, can you post the frosty piss to slashdot.
