Git v1.7.0.8 Release Notes
==========================

This is primarily to backport support for the new "add.ignoreErrors"
name given to the existing "add.ignore-errors" configuration variable.

The next version, Git 1.7.4, and future versions, will support both
old and incorrect name and the new corrected name, but without this
backport, users who want to use the new name "add.ignoreErrors" in
their repositories cannot use older versions of Git.

Title: Git v1.7.0.8 Release Notes

Summary

Git version 1.7.0.8 updates the configuration variable name from 'add.ignore-errors' to 'add.ignoreErrors' for backward compatibility, allowing users to utilize the new name in their repositories while still supporting older versions of Git, specifically to address the limitation where users could not use the new name with older Git versions prior to the upcoming Git 1.7.4 release.
