DEVELOPMENT HEAD

  NEW FEATURES:

    * Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on

      BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.

    * New 'bzr mkdir' command.

    * Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the

      command line; patch from Torsten Marek.

  CHANGES:

    * When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put 

      everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the

      current directory.   This can be overridden with the ``--root`` 

      option.  Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.

    * New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,

      replacing ``bzr check --update``.

    * Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on

      disk.

    * Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by

      John A Meinel.  Old format is available with the ``--long`` or

      ``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.

    * By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with

      no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.

bzr-0.0.5  2005-06-15

  CHANGES:

    * ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an

      error.  Suggested by Michael Ellerman.

    * ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output

      doesn't really match the model of bzr.  Now files are grouped by

      status and can be shown with their IDs.  ``bzr status --all``

      shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.

    * ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse

      of the previous order.  The previous behaviour can be obtained

      with the ``--forward`` option.

    * ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids

      if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second

      field.

  ENHANCEMENTS:

    * New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component

      of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.

    * New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.

    * Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar

      conditions that don't indicate an internal error.

    * Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.

    * Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in

      either read or write mode.

    * New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.

    * New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that

      affected that file.

    * Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.

    * New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,

      suggested by LarstiQ.

    * New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz

      Oler.  File may be in a branch other than the working directory.

    * ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of

      a filename.

    * Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts

      in a directory on $BZRPATH.

    * New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they 

      haven't changed since the previous time.

    * If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one

      or give an error.  Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.

    * New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.

    * New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.

    * New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected

      range; contributed by John A Meinel.

    * New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing

      options through to an external GNU diff.

    * New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not

      their contents.

    * ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run

      from a branch.

  BUG FIXES:

    * Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be

      handled properly by patch.  Fix from Lalo Martins.

    * Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other

      metacharacters.

  TESTING:

    * Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;

      now run using ``./testbzr``.  Various structural improvements to

      the tests.

    * testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same

      directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.

    * testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command

      required to check is just ``./testbzr``.

    * testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running

      under a different version.

    * Tests added for many other changes in this release.

  INTERNAL:

    * Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.

    * Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by

      Scott James Remnant.

    * Better help messages for many commands.

    * Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until

      this is called trace messages are just discarded.

    * New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden

      command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.

    * Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.

    * bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.

    * New AtomicFile class.

    * New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.

  PORTABILITY:

    * Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.

      2.4 is now only recommended.

bzr-0.0.4  2005-04-22

  ENHANCEMENTS:

    * 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff.  Still a bit

      basic.  Patch from QuantumG.

    * More default ignore patterns.

    * New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the

      changeset.  Patch from Sebastian Cote.

    * Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.

    * Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch

      by Jason Diamon.

    * New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.

  CHANGES:

    * User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email

      or $EMAIL.  All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.

      If none of these are present user@hostname is used.  The host's

      fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when

      there are DNS problems.

    * New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.

  BUG FIXES: 

    * Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.

    * Some Unicode/locale fixes.

    * Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling

      trailing newlines properly.

  INTERNAL:

    * Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format.  Patch from

      Matt Brubeck.

    * More tests in test.sh.

    * Write profile data to a temporary file not into working

      directory and delete it when done.

    * Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.

  PORTABILITY:

    * Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows.  Patch from Andrew

      Bennetts.

    * Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch

      from QuantumG.

bzr-0.0.3  2005-04-06

  ENHANCEMENTS:

    * New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories

      in the tree.

    * Can now say "bzr commit --help".

    * New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name

      and/or directory.

    * New "move" command to move one or more files into a different

      directory.

    * New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.

    * New cat command contributed by janmar.

  CHANGES:

    * .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in

      UTF-8.  (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but

      will do for now.)

  PORTABILITY:

    * Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an

      exception when comparing empty files.  Reported by Erik Toubro

      Nielsen.

  INTERNAL:

    * Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.

  TESTING:

    * Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.

bzr-0.0.2.1

  PORTABILITY:

    * Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.

bzr-0.0.2  "black cube"  2005-03-31

  ENHANCEMENTS:

    * Default ignore list extended (see bzrlib/__init__.py).

    * Patterns in .bzrignore are now added to the default ignore list,

      rather than replacing it.

    * Ignore list isn't reread for every file.

    * More help topics.

    * Reinstate the 'bzr check' command to check invariants of the

      branch.

    * New 'ignored' command lists which files are ignored and why;

      'deleted' lists files deleted in the current working tree.

    * Performance improvements.

    * New global --profile option.

    * Ignore patterns like './config.h' now correctly match files in

      the root directory only.

bzr-0.0.1  2005-03-26

  ENHANCEMENTS:

    * More information from info command.

    * Can now say "bzr help COMMAND" for more detailed help.

    * Less file flushing and faster performance when writing logs and

      committing to stores.

    * More useful verbose output from some commands.

  BUG FIXES:

    * Fix inverted display of 'R' and 'M' during 'commit -v'.

  PORTABILITY:

    * Include a subset of ElementTree-1.2.20040618 to make

      installation easier.

    * Fix time.localtime call to work with Python 2.3 (the minimum

      supported).

bzr-0.0.0.69  2005-03-22

  ENHANCEMENTS:

    * First public release.

    * Storage of local versions: init, add, remove, rm, info, log,

      diff, status, etc.
