  NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
11
2825.4.1 by Robert Collins
* ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently correct some
12
   * ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently correct some
13
     repository index errors that occured as a result of the Weave disk format.
14
     Instead the ``reconcile`` command needs to be run to correct those
15
     problems if they exist (and it has been able to fix most such problems
16
     since bzr 0.8). Some new problems have been identified during this release
17
     and you should run ``bzr check`` once on every repository to see if you
18
     need to reconcile. If you cannot ``pull`` or ``merge`` from a remote
19
     repository due to mismatched parent errors - a symptom of index errors -
20
     you should simply take a full copy of that remote repository to a clean
21
     directory outside any local repositories, then run reconcile on it, and
22
     finally pull from it locally. (And naturally email the repositories owner
23
     to ask them to upgrade and run reconcile).

  BUG FIXES:
67
2818.1.1 by Ian Clatworthy
profiling fixes - basename checking and exceptions now caught
68
   * Commands reporting exceptions can now be profiled and still have their
69
     data correctly dumped to a file. For example, a ``bzr commit`` with
70
     no changes still reports the operation as pointless but doing so no
71
     longer throws away the profiling data if this command is run with
72
     ``--lsprof-file callgrind.out.ci`` say. (Ian Clatworthy)
73
2822.1.1 by v.ladeuil+lp at free
Fix #59150 (again) by handling paramiko availability for transport_util.py.
74
   * Fallback to ftp when paramiko is not installed and sftp can't be used for
75
     ``tests/commands`` so that the test suite is still usable without
76
     paramiko.
77
     (Vincent Ladeuil, #59150)

   * Fix failing test by comparing real paths to cover the case where the TMPDIR
85
     contains a symbolic link.
86
     (Vincent Ladeuil, #141382).
87
2823.1.12 by Vincent Ladeuil
NEWS should be in alphabetical order.
88
   * HttpServer and FtpServer need to be closed properly or a listening socket
89
     will remain opened.
90
     (Vincent Ladeuil, #140055)
91
92
   * The basename, not the full path, is now used when checking whether
93
     the profiling dump file begins with ``callgrind.out`` or not. This
94
     fixes a bug reported by Aaron Bentley on IRC. (Ian Clatworthy)

   * ``KnitVersionedFile.add*`` will no longer cache added records even when
105
     enable_cache() has been called - the caching feature is now exclusively for

     reading existing data. (Robert Collins)
107
2805.6.8 by Robert Collins
Merge 0.92 opening.
108
   * The ``VersionedFile`` interface now allows content checks to be bypassed
109
     by supplying check_content=False.  This saves nearly 30% of the minimum
110
     cost to store a version of a file. (Robert Collins)
2817.2.1 by Robert Collins
* Inventory serialisation no longer double-sha's the content.
111
112
   * Tree's with bad state such as files with no length or sha will no longer
113
     be silently accepted by the repository XML serialiser. To serialise
114
     inventories without such data, pass working=True to write_inventory.
115
     (Robert Collins)
116
2825.4.1 by Robert Collins
* ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently correct some
117
   * ``VersionedFile.fix_parents`` has been removed as a harmful API.
118
     ``VersionedFile.join`` will no longer accept different parents on either
119
     side of a join - it will either ignore them, or error, depending on the
120
     implementation. See notes when upgrading for more information.
121
     (Robert Collins)
122
2817.3.1 by Robert Collins
* New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a byte string
123
  INTERNALS:
124
2853.1.1 by Robert Collins
* ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.put_file`` now returns the number of bytes
125
    * ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.put_file`` now returns the number of bytes
126
      put by the method call, to allow avoiding stat-after-write or
127
      housekeeping in callers. (Robert Collins)
128
2825.7.1 by Robert Collins
* Partial commits are now approximately 40% faster by walking over the
129
   * New method ``bzrlib.osutils.minimum_path_selection`` useful for removing
130
     duplication from user input, when a user mentions both a path and an item
131
     contained within that path. (Robert Collins)
132
2817.2.1 by Robert Collins
* Inventory serialisation no longer double-sha's the content.
133
   * New method on xml serialisers, write_inventory_to_lines, which matches the
134
     API used by knits for adding content. (Robert Collins)
135
2817.3.1 by Robert Collins
* New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a byte string
136
   * New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a byte string
137
     and returns a gzipped version of the same. This is used to avoid a bunch
138
     of api friction during adding of knit hunks. (Robert Collins)
139
2825.7.1 by Robert Collins
* Partial commits are now approximately 40% faster by walking over the
140
   * New parameter yield_parents on ``Inventory.iter_entries_by_dir`` which
141
     causes the parents of a selected id to be returned recursively, so all the
142
     paths from the root down to each element of selected_file_ids are
143
     returned. (Robert Collins)

160
  CHANGES:
161
162
   * The default branch and repository format has changed to 
163
     ``dirstate-tags``, so tag commands are active by default.
164
     This format is compatible with Bazaar 0.15 and later.
2805.5.3 by Martin Pool
In checkouts, tags are copied into the master branch when created, changed or deleted, and are copied into the checkout when it is updated. (Martin Pool, #93856, #93860)
165
     This incidentally fixes bug #126141.

2768.1.9 by Ian Clatworthy
Update NEWS
168
   * ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is no longer a global option. If present, it
169
     must now appear after the command name. Scripts doing things like
170
     ``bzr -q missing`` need to be rewritten as ``bzr missing -q``.

  FEATURES:

2772.1.1 by Martin Pool
Merge commit --show-diff feature from Goffredo
175
   * New option ``--author`` in ``bzr commit`` to specify the author of the
176
     change, if it's different from the committer. ``bzr log`` and
177
     ``bzr annotate`` display the author instead of the committer.

2768.1.16 by Ian Clatworthy
merge bzr.dev
180
   * In addition to global options and command specific options, a set of
181
     standard options are now supported. Standard options are legal for
182
     all commands. The initial set of standard options are:
183
     
184
     * ``--help`` or ``-h`` - display help message
185
     * ``--verbose`` or ``-v`` - display additional information
186
     * ``--quiet``  or ``-q`` - only output warnings and errors.
187
188
     Unlike global options, standard options can be used in aliases and
189
     may have command-specific help. (Ian Clatworthy)
190
191
   * Verbosity level processing has now been unified. If ``--verbose``
192
     or ``-v`` is specified on the command line multiple times, the
193
     verbosity level is made positive the first time then increased.
194
     If ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is specified on the command line
195
     multiple times, the verbosity level is made negative the first
196
     time then decreased. To get the default verbosity level of zero,
197
     either specify none of the above , ``--no-verbose`` or ``--no-quiet``.
198
     Note that most commands currently ignore the magnitude of the
199
     verbosity level but do respect *quiet vs normal vs verbose* when
200
     generating output. (Ian Clatworthy)

     Watkins, #106726)
239
240
   * Error messages are now better formatted with parameters (such as
241
     filenames) quoted when necessary. This avoids confusion when directory
242
     names ending in a '.' at the end of messages were confused with a
243
     full stop that may or not have been there. (Daniel Watkins, #129791)
244
245
   * Fix ``status FILE -r X..Y``. (Lukáš Lalinský)
246
247
   * If a particular command is an alias, ``help`` will show the alias
248
     instead of claiming there is no help for said alias. (Daniel Watkins,
249
     #133548)
250
251
   * TreeTransform-based operations, like pull, merge, revert, and branch,
252
     now roll back if they encounter an error.  (Aaron Bentley, #67699)
253
254
   * ``bzr commit`` now exits cleanly if a character unsupported by the
255
     current encoding is used in the commit message.  (Daniel Watkins,

   * ``bzr remove`` should remove clean subtrees.  Now it will remove (without
265
     needing ``--force``) subtrees that contain no files with text changes or
266
     modified files.  With ``--force`` it removes the subtree regardless of
267
     text changes or unknown files. Directories with renames in or out (but
268
     not changed otherwise) will now be removed without needing ``--force``.

440
   * Three new methods have been added to ``bzrlib.trace``:
441
     ``set_verbosity_level``, ``get_verbosity_level`` and ``is_verbose``.
442
     ``set_verbosity_level`` expects a numeric value: negative for quiet,
443
     zero for normal, positive for verbose. The size of the number can be
444
     used to determine just how quiet or verbose the application should be.
445
     The existing ``be_quiet`` and ``is_quiet`` routines have been
446
     integrated into this new scheme. (Ian Clatworthy)
447
448
   * Options can now be delcared with a ``custom_callback`` parameter. If
449
     set, this routine is called after the option is processed. This feature
450
     is now used by the standard options ``verbose`` and ``quiet`` so that
451
     setting one implicitly resets the other. (Ian Clatworthy)
452
453
   * Rather than declaring a new option from scratch in order to provide
454
     custom help, a centrally registered option can be decorated using the
455
     new ``bzrlib.Option.custom_help`` routine. In particular, this routine
456
     is useful when declaring better help for the ``verbose`` and ``quiet``
457
     standard options as the base definition of these is now more complex
458
     than before thanks to their use of a custom callback. (Ian Clatworthy)

(robertc) Reinstate the accidentally backed out external_url patch.
922
    * The ``SmartServer`` hooks API has changed for the ``server_started`` and
923
      ``server_stopped`` hooks. The first parameter is now an iterable of
924
      backing URLs rather than a single URL. This is to reflect that many
925
      URLs may map to the external URL of the server. E.g. the server interally
926
      may have a chrooted URL but also the local file:// URL will be at the 
927
      same location. (Robert Collins)

941
      (Martin Pool)
942
943
    * TreeConfig would mistakenly search the top level when asked for options
944
      from a section. It now respects the section argument and only
945
      searches the specified section. (James Westby)
946
947
    * Improve ``make api-docs`` output. (John Arbash Meinel)
948
949
    * Use os.lstat rather than os.stat for osutils.make_readonly and
950
      osutils.make_writeable. This makes the difftools plugin more
951
      robust when dangling symlinks are found. (Elliot Murphy)

955
2553.1.1 by Robert Collins
Give Hooks names.
956
    * ``bzrlib`` Hooks are now nameable using ``Hooks.name_hook``. This 
957
      allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current hook can
958
      be displayed. (Robert Collins)

962
      time, or raise 'ReadError' on a read. (Robert Collins)

Review feedback.
964
    * New method ``_maybe_expand_globs`` on the ``Command`` class for 
965
      dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32 platform. This
2568.2.2 by Robert Collins
* New method ``_glob_expand_file_list_if_needed`` on the ``Command`` class
966
      was moved from ``bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list``. (Robert Collins)

  TESTING:
979
980
    * Removed the ``--keep-output`` option from selftest and clean up test
981
      directories as they're used.  This reduces the IO load from 
982
      running the test suite and cuts the time by about half.

Overhaul RepositoryTestAdapter to be cleaner and more modular.
986
      modification of the generated scenarios before adaption and easier

      testing. (Robert Collins)
988
2553.2.3 by Robert Collins
Split out the common test scenario support from the repository implementation specific code.
989
    * New testing support class ``TestScenarioApplier`` which multiplies
990
      out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios. (RobertCollins)
991
2553.2.11 by Robert Collins
Document repository_to_test_repository for testing.
992
    * Setting ``repository_to_test_repository`` on a repository_implementations
993
      test will cause it to be called during repository creation, allowing the
994
      testing of repository classes which are not based around the Format
995
      concept. For example a repository adapter can be tested in this manner,
996
      by altering the repository scenarios to include a scenario that sets this
997
      attribute during the test parameterisation in
998
      ``bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations``. (Robert Collins)

    * Clean up many of the APIs for blackbox testing of Bazaar.  The standard 
1001
      interface is now self.run_bzr.  The command to run can be passed as
1002
      either a list of parameters, a string containing the command line, or

      (deprecated) varargs parameters.  (Martin Pool)

  NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1029
1030
    * The kind() and is_executable() APIs on the WorkingTree interface no
1031
      longer implicitly (read) locks and unlocks the tree. This *might*
1032
      impact some plug-ins and tools using this part of the API. If you find
1033
      an issue that may be caused by this change, please let us know,
1034
      particularly the plug-in/tool maintainer. If encountered, the API
1035
      fix is to surround kind() and is_executable() calls with lock_read()
1036
      and unlock() like so::
1037
1038
        work_tree.lock_read()
1039
        try:
1040
            kind = work_tree.kind(...)
1041
        finally:
1042
            work_tree.unlock()
1043
2466.8.1 by Kent Gibson
Reworked LogFormatter API to simplify extending the attributes of the revision being logged. Added support for begin_log() and end_log() hooks in LogFormatters.
1044
  INTERNALS:
1045
    * Rework of LogFormatter API to provide beginning/end of log hooks and to
1046
      encapsulate the details of the revision to be logged in a LogRevision
1047
      object.
1048
      In long log formats, merge revision ids are only shown when --show-ids
1049
      is specified, and are labelled "revision-id:", as per mainline
1050
      revisions, instead of "merged:". (Kent Gibson)
1051
2495.3.1 by John Arbash Meinel
(Robert Collins) Add a BranchBuilder API for use by the test suite.
1052
    * New ``BranchBuilder`` API which allows the construction of particular

(John Arbash Meinel, Aaron Bentley) Fix bug #115343 allowing 'bzr branch' to sprout any revision in the repository.
1147
    * Clean up the ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes()`` internal loops as well as
1148
      ``DirState.update_entry()``. This optimizes the core logic for ``bzr
1149
      diff`` and ``bzr status`` significantly improving the speed of
1150
      both. (John Arbash Meinel)

2255.7.53 by Robert Collins
Make the dirstate API changes be prominently documented for upgraders.
1633
    * For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
1634
      readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
1635
      its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
1636
      unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
1637
      format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
1638
      cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
1639
      combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API. (Robert
1640
      Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).

    * ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
1648
      In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
1649
      exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
1650
      already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
1651
      does exist.
1652
      A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
1551.10.16 by Aaron Bentley
update NEWS
1653
      exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
1654
      and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
1655
      will only update the Bazaar identifier.

      performance benefits for Knits, since we no longer need to decode the

      finally joining trees to make a larger tree. This is the first iteration
1779
      of this support, and the user-facing aspects still require substantial

1782
      You can use the hidden commands ``split`` and ``join`` and to create

  NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:

    Release 0.8 of bzr introduces a new format for history storage, called
2845
    'knit', as an evolution of to the 'weave' format used in 0.7.  Local 
1692.7.10 by Martin Pool
Typo in NEWS
2846
    and remote operations are faster using knits than weaves.  Several
1692.7.8 by Martin Pool
Add additional explanation to NEWS
2847
    operations including 'init', 'init-repo', and 'upgrade' take a 
2848
    --format option that controls this.  Branching from an existing branch
2849
    will keep the same format.
2850
2851
    It is possible to merge, pull and push between branches of different
2852
    formats but this is slower than moving data between homogenous
2853
    branches.  It is therefore recommended (but not required) that you

    upgrade all branches for a project at the same time.  Information on
2855
    formats is shown by 'bzr info'.
2856
2857
    bzr 0.8 now allows creation of 'repositories', which hold the history 
2858
    of files and revisions for several branches.  Previously bzr kept all
2859
    the history for a branch within the .bzr directory at the root of the
2860
    branch, and this is still the default.  To create a repository, use
2861
    the new 'bzr init-repo' command.  Branches exist as directories under
2862
    the repository and contain just a small amount of information
2863
    indicating the current revision of the branch.
2864
2865
    bzr 0.8 also supports 'checkouts', which are similar to in cvs and
2866
    subversion.  Checkouts are associated with a branch (optionally in a
2867
    repository), which contains all the historical information.  The
2868
    result is that a checkout can be deleted without losing any
1692.7.11 by Martin Pool

    already-committed revisions.  A new 'update' command is also available.

2870
2871
    Repositories and checkouts are not supported with the 0.7 storage
2872
    format.  To use them you must upgrad to either knits, or to the
2873
    'metaweave' format, which uses weaves but changes the .bzr directory
2874
    arrangement.

Apply Harald Meland's fix to lock with lockf for NFS compatability
3617
1185.15.6 by Martin Pool
- release note limitation of branch eta
3618
  NOTES:
3619
3620
    * 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
3621
      of completion time but it should fall as the first few 
3622
      revisions are pulled in.  branch is still slow on 
3623
      high-latency connections.

Aarons export fix and conflict on deleted and modified files fix.
3633
    * When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on

      one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
3635
      written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
3636
      or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
3637
3638
    * Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
3639
      the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
3640
1414 by Robert Collins
merge in an adjusted version of Jelmer's empty-log detection patch.
3641

Aarons branch --basis patch
3664
    * 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
3665

3682
      and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those 
3683

3707
1423 by Robert Collins
merge in UnsupportedFormatError feature
3708
    * Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a 
3709
      bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
3710
      handling of such circumstances.
3711
2464.1.2 by John Arbash Meinel
Cleanup NEWS in accordance with rst formatting rules.
3712
    * Remove RevisionReference class; ``Revision.parent_ids`` is now simply a
3713
      list of their ids and ``parent_sha1s`` is a list of their corresponding
2382.2.1 by Martin Pool
Move old NEWS.developers entries into NEWS

3724
    * Inventories now identify the files which were present by 
3725
      giving the revision *of that file*.
3726
3727
    * Inventory and Revision XML contains a version identifier.  
3728
      This must be consistent with the overall branch version
3729
      but allows for more flexibility in future upgrades.
1393.1.6 by Martin Pool

3761
1185.1.39 by Robert Collins
Robey Pointers before: namespace to clear up usage of dates in revision parameters
3762
    * Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
3763
      there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
3764
      For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will

1185.3.3 by Martin Pool
- patch from mpe to automatically add parent directories
3782
  IMPROVEMENTS:
3783
3784
    * Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
3785
      implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
3786
      you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
3787
      get added when you add a file in the directory.  Contributed by
3788
      Michael Ellerman.

Accept and tweak David Clymers BZREDITOR support patch
3794
      preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
3795
      editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
3796
      set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
3797
      for the operating system is still tried.
3798
1185.1.32 by Robert Collins
Merge John Meinels patch to support trees with fifo/socket/block files present in the tree
3799
    * Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
3800
      cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
3801
      them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
