Release Notes for
                              Git Connector

                             Version 2018.1

Introduction

    This document lists all user-visible changes to Git Connector (also
    referred to as the Connector). Release notes for other Perforce
    Helix products are available separately on the Perforce Documentation
    web page.

    The Connector augments the functionality of the Helix Versioning
    Engine to support Git clients. It services requests from Git clients,
    and stores Git data in Git repos that reside within a depot of type
    graph in the Helix server. Requests are supported over both HTTP(S) and
    SSH connections.

    Perforce numbers releases YYYY.R/CCCCC, e.g. 2017.1/1512253.
    YYYY is the year; R is the release of that year; CCCCC is the
    bug fix change level.  Each bug fix in these release notes is
    marked by its change number.  Any build includes (1) all bug fixes
    of all previous releases and (2) all bug fixes of the current
    release up to the bug fix change level.

    The Connector components 'gconn' and 'git-remote-p4gc' will report
    their version information by passing the '-V' flag.  Additionally,
    Git users can retrieve extended version information through cloning
    '@info' special command by running 'git clone git@ConnectorHost:@info'
    or 'git clone https://ConnectorHost/@info'.

Requirements

    * Git Connector requires an installation of the Helix Versioning Engine
      2017.1/1504924 or later.

    * The Connector is available in two distribution package formats:
      Debian (.deb) for Ubuntu systems and RPM (.rpm) for CentOS and
      RedHat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). You can install the Connector on
      the following Linux (Intel x86_64) platforms:
          * Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
          * Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
          * CentOS or Red Hat 6.x
          * CentOS or Red Hat 7.x
          * CentOS or Red Hat 7.x
          * SLES 11
          * SLES 12

    * The Connector requires Git version 1.8.5 or later. If the distribution
      package comes with an earlier release of Git, you need to manually
      upgrade to a supported version.
