5
* Support for OS Windows 98. Also .bzr.log on any windows system
6
saved in My Documents folder. (Alexander Belchenko)
8
* ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
9
In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
10
exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
11
already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
13
A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
14
exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
15
and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
16
will only update the Bazaar identifier.
17
(Steffen Eichenberg, Marius Kruger)
19
* ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
22
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
25
* ``bzr pull --overwrite`` will now correctly overwrite checkouts.
28
* Files are now allowed to change kind (e.g. from file to symlink).
29
Supported by ``commit``, ``revert`` and ``status``
32
* ``inventory`` and ``unknowns`` hidden in favour of ``ls``
35
* ``bzr help checkouts`` descibes what checkouts are and some possible
36
uses of them. (James Westby, Aaron Bentley)
38
* A new ``-d`` option to push, pull and merge overrides the default
39
directory. (Martin Pool)
41
* Branch format 6: smaller, and potentially faster than format 5. Supports
42
"append_history_only" mode, where the log view and revnos do not change,
43
except by being added to. Stores policy settings in
44
".bzr/branch/branch.conf".
46
* append_only branches: Format 6 branches may be configured so that log
47
view and revnos are always consistent. Either create the branch using
48
"bzr init --append-revisions-only" or edit the config file as descriped
49
in docs/configuration.txt.
51
* rebind: Format 6 branches retain the last-used bind location, so if you
52
"bzr unbind", you can "bzr bind" to bind to the previously-selected
57
* Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
58
versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
61
* Minor performance improvement by not creating a ProgressBar for
62
every KnitIndex we create. (about 90ms for a bzr.dev tree)
65
* New easier to use Branch hooks facility. There are five initial hooks,
66
all documented in bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks.__init__ - 'set_rh',
67
'post_push', 'post_pull', 'post_commit', 'post_uncommit'. These hooks
68
fire after the matching operation on a branch has taken place, and were
69
originally added for the branchrss plugin. (Robert Collins)
71
* New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
72
branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
73
level command ``push``. (Robert Collins).
75
* New Branch.last_revision_info method, this is being done to allow
76
optimization of requests for both the number of revisions and the last
77
revision of a branch with smartservers and potentially future branch
78
formats. (Wouter van Heyst, Robert Collins)
80
* Allow 'import bzrlib.plugins.NAME' to work when the plugin NAME has not
81
yet been loaded by load_plugins(). This allows plugins to depend on each
82
other for code reuse without requiring users to perform file-renaming
83
gymnastics. (Robert Collins)
85
* New Repository method 'gather_stats' for statistic data collection.
86
This is expected to grow to cover a number of related uses mainly
87
related to bzr info. (Robert Collins)
89
* Log formatters are now managed with a registry. log.register_formatter
90
continues to work, but callers accessed the FORMATTERS dictionary
93
* ``GPGStrategy.sign()`` will now raise ``BzrBadParameterUnicode`` if
94
you pass a Unicode string rather than an 8-bit string. Callers need
95
to be updated to encode first. (John Arbash Meinel)
99
* ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
100
branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
101
(John Arbash Meinel, #82158)
103
* Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
106
* ``bzr push`` can resume a push that was canceled before it finished.
107
Also, it can push even if the target directory exists if you supply
108
the ``--use-existing-dir`` flag.
109
(John Arbash Meinel, #30576, #45504)
111
* Fix http proxy authentication when user and an optional
112
password appears in the *_proxy vars. (Vincent Ladeuil,
115
* ``bzr log branch/file`` works for local treeless branches
116
(Aaron Bentley, #84247)
118
* Fix problem with UNC paths on Windows 98. (Alexander Belchenko, #84728)
122
* New ``--first`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to run specified tests
123
before the rest of the suite. (Martin Pool)
130
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options. (Aaron Bentley)
134
* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
135
available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
136
(John Arbash Meinel, #80330)
138
* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
139
working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
140
it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)
143
bzr 0.14rc1 2007-01-16
147
* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
148
protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
149
server, then you can write over the http connection.
150
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
152
* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
155
* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
156
the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
157
(and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)
159
* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
160
succeed. (Aaron Bentley)
162
* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
165
* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
166
of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
167
off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
168
of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
169
filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
170
calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)
172
* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
173
inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
174
should enable you to do::
177
push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
178
push_location:policy = appendpath
180
And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
181
automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
184
* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
185
for each file. For example::
193
* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
194
directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)
196
* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)
198
* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
199
local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)
201
* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)
205
* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
206
help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
207
lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
208
improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)
210
* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
211
resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
212
preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)
214
* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows. (Vincent Ladeuil)
216
* When 'encoding_type' attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
217
force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
218
keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
219
(Alexander Belchenko)
221
* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared. (Martin
224
* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
225
that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)
227
* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)
231
* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
232
direction. (John Arbash Meinel)
234
* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
235
revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
236
supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
237
``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
238
revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)
240
* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. \\HOST\path).
241
(Alexander Belchenko, #57869)
243
* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
244
line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)
246
* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
248
(Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)
250
* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
251
the test suite to test more cases. Also detect http error code 416
252
which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
253
robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
254
short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)
256
* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
257
proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
258
anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
259
problem. (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)
261
* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
262
(Aaron Bentley, #76229)
264
* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
265
lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)
267
* Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
268
(Wouter van Heyst, #31663)
270
* Allow plugins import from zip archives.
271
(Alexander Belchenko, #68124)
276
No changes from 0.13rc1
278
bzr 0.13rc1 2006-11-27
282
* New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
286
* urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
287
operations are substantially faster.
288
(Vincent Ladeuil, #53654)
290
* ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
291
tree from some other url. For example:
292
``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
295
* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
296
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
297
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
298
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)
300
* WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server. See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
303
* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
304
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
305
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
306
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
307
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
308
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)
312
* New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
313
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
316
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
317
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
320
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
321
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
322
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
325
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
326
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
328
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
329
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew
334
* Now _KnitIndex properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
335
And optimize the knit index parsing code. (Dmitry Vasiliev, John
338
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
339
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
340
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
341
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
343
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
345
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
346
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
348
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
349
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
350
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
351
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
353
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
354
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
355
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
357
* _KnitIndex.add_versions() dictionary compresses revision ids as they
358
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
359
them as full references rather than integers. (John Arbash Meinel,
362
* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
363
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)
365
* ``bzr ignore`` takes multiple arguments. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #29488)
367
* mv correctly handles paths that traverse symlinks.
368
(Aaron Bentley, #66964)
370
* Give nicer looking error messages when failing to connect over ssh.
371
(John Arbash Meinel, #49172)
373
* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
374
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
375
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
376
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
378
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
379
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
380
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
382
* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
383
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
385
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
386
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
387
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
388
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.
389
(Cheuksan Edward Wang, #30190)
393
* TestingHTTPRequestHandler really handles the Range header
394
(previously it was ignoring it and returning the whole file,).
400
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
401
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
404
bzr 0.12rc1 2006-10-23
408
* ``bzr log`` now shows dotted-decimal revision numbers for all revisions,
409
rather than just showing a decimal revision number for revisions on the
410
mainline. These revision numbers are not yet accepted as input into bzr
411
commands such as log, diff etc. (Robert Collins)
413
* revisions can now be specified using dotted-decimal revision numbers.
414
For instance, ``bzr diff -r 1.2.1..1.2.3. (Robert Collins)
416
* ``bzr help commands`` output is now shorter (Aaron Bentley)
418
* ``bzr`` now uses lazy importing to reduce the startup time. This has
419
a moderate effect on lots of actions, especially ones that have
420
little to do. For example ``bzr rocks`` time is down to 116ms from
421
283ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
423
* New Registry class to provide name-to-object registry-like support,
424
for example for schemes where plugins can register new classes to
425
do certain tasks (e.g. log formatters). Also provides lazy registration
426
to allow modules to be loaded on request. (John Arbash Meinel, Adeodato
431
* LogFormatter subclasses show now expect the 'revno' parameter to
432
show() to be a string rather than an int. (Robert Collins)
436
* ``TestCase.run_bzr``, ``run_bzr_captured``, and ``run_bzr_subprocess``
437
can take a ``working_dir='foo'`` parameter, which will change directory
438
for the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
440
* ``bzrlib.lazy_regex.lazy_compile`` can be used to create a proxy
441
around a regex, which defers compilation until first use.
444
* ``TestCase.run_bzr_subprocess`` defaults to supplying the
445
``--no-plugins`` parameter to ensure test reproducability, and avoid
446
problems with system-wide installed plugins. (John Arbash Meinel)
448
* Unique tree root ids are now supported. Newly created trees still
449
use the common root id for compatibility with bzr versions before 0.12.
452
* ``WorkingTree.set_root_id(None)`` is now deprecated. Please
453
pass in inventory.ROOT_ID if you want the default root id value.
454
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
456
* New method ``WorkingTree.flush()`` which will write the current memory
457
inventory out to disk. At the same time, read_working_inventory will
458
no longer trash the current tree inventory if it has been modified within
459
the current lock, and the tree will now ``flush()`` automatically on
460
``unlock()``. ``WorkingTree.set_root_id()`` has been updated to take
461
advantage of this functionality. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
463
* ``bzrlib.tsort.merge_sorted`` now accepts ``generate_revnos``. This
464
parameter will cause it to add another column to its output, which
465
contains the dotted-decimal revno for each revision, as a tuple.
468
* ``LogFormatter.show_merge`` is deprecated in favour of
469
``LogFormatter.show_merge_revno``. (Robert Collins)
473
* Avoid circular imports by creating a deprecated function for
474
``bzrlib.tree.RevisionTree``. Callers should have been using
475
``bzrlib.revisontree.RevisionTree`` anyway. (John Arbash Meinel,
478
* Don't use ``socket.MSG_WAITALL`` as it doesn't exist on all
479
platforms. (Martin Pool, #66356)
481
* Don't require ``Content-Type`` in range responses. Assume they are a
482
single range if ``Content-Type`` does not exist.
483
(John Arbash Meinel, #62473)
485
* bzr branch/pull no longer complain about progress bar cleanup when
486
interrupted during fetch. (Aaron Bentley, #54000)
488
* ``WorkingTree.set_parent_trees()`` uses the trees to directly write
489
the basis inventory, rather than going through the repository. This
490
allows us to have 1 inventory read, and 2 inventory writes when
491
committing a new tree. (John Arbash Meinel)
493
* When reverting, files that are not locally modified that do not exist
494
in the target are deleted, not just unversioned (Aaron Bentley)
496
* When trying to acquire a lock, don't fail immediately. Instead, try
497
a few times (up to 1 hour) before timing out. Also, report why the
498
lock is unavailable (John Arbash Meinel, #43521, #49556)
500
* Leave HttpTransportBase daughter classes decides how they
501
implement cloning. (Vincent Ladeuil, #61606)
503
* diff3 does not indicate conflicts on clean merge. (Aaron Bentley)
505
* If a commit fails, the commit message is stored in a file at the root of
506
the tree for later commit. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, Stefan Metzmacher,
511
* New test base class TestCaseWithMemoryTransport offers memory-only
512
testing facilities: its not suitable for tests that need to mutate disk
513
state, but most tests should not need that and should be converted to
514
TestCaseWithMemoryTransport. (Robert Collins)
516
* ``TestCase.make_branch_and_memory_tree`` now takes a format
517
option to set the BzrDir, Repository and Branch formats of the
518
created objects. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
522
* Smart server transport test failures on windows fixed. (Lukáš Lalinský).
524
bzr 0.11rc2 2006-09-27
528
* Test suite hangs on windows fixed. (Andrew Bennets, Alexander Belchenko).
530
* Commit performance regression fixed. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, John
533
bzr 0.11rc1 2006-09-25
537
* Knit files now wait to create their contents until the first data is
538
added. The old code used to create an empty .knit and a .kndx with just
539
the header. However, this caused a lot of extra round trips over sftp.
540
This can change the time for ``bzr push`` to create a new remote branch
541
from 160s down to 100s. This also affects ``bzr commit`` performance when
542
adding new files, ``bzr commit`` on a new kernel-like tree drops from 50s
543
down to 40s (John Arbash Meinel, #44692)
545
* When an entire subtree has been deleted, commit will now report that
546
just the top of the subtree has been deleted, rather than reporting
547
all the individual items. (Robert Collins)
549
* Commit performs one less XML parse. (Robert Collins)
551
* ``bzr checkout`` now operates on readonly branches as well
552
as readwrite branches. This fixes bug #39542. (Robert Collins)
554
* ``bzr bind`` no longer synchronises history with the master branch.
555
Binding should be followed by an update or push to synchronise the
556
two branches. This is closely related to the fix for bug #39542.
559
* ``bzrlib.lazy_import.lazy_import`` function to create on-demand
560
objects. This allows all imports to stay at the global scope, but
561
modules will not actually be imported if they are not used.
564
* Support bzr:// and bzr+ssh:// urls to work with the new RPC-based
565
transport which will be used with the upcoming high-performance smart
566
server. The new command ``bzr serve`` will invoke bzr in server mode,
567
which processes these requests. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, Martin
570
* New command ``bzr version-info`` which can be used to get a summary
571
of the current state of the tree. This is especially useful as part
572
of a build commands. See ``doc/version_info.txt`` for more information
577
* 'bzr inventory [FILE...]' allows restricting the file list to a
578
specific set of files. (John Arbash Meinel, #3631)
580
* Don't abort when annotating empty files (John Arbash Meinel, #56814)
582
* Add ``Stanza.to_unicode()`` which can be passed to another Stanza
583
when nesting stanzas. Also, add ``read_stanza_unicode`` to handle when
584
reading a nested Stanza. (John Arbash Meinel)
586
* Transform._set_mode() needs to stat the right file.
587
(John Arbash Meinel, #56549)
589
* Raise WeaveFormatError rather than StopIteration when trying to read
590
an empty Weave file. (John Arbash Meinel, #46871)
592
* Don't access e.code for generic URLErrors, only HTTPErrors have .code.
593
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59835)
595
* Handle boundary="" lines properly to allow access through a Squid proxy.
596
(John Arbash Meinel, #57723)
598
* revert now removes newly-added directories (Aaron Bentley, #54172)
600
* ``bzr upgrade sftp://`` shouldn't fail to upgrade v6 branches if there
601
isn't a working tree. (David Allouche, #40679)
603
* Give nicer error messages when a user supplies an invalid --revision
604
parameter. (John Arbash Meinel, #55420)
606
* Handle when LANG is not recognized by python. Emit a warning, but
607
just revert to using 'ascii'. (John Arbash Meinel, #35392)
609
* Don't use preexec_fn on win32, as it is not supported by subprocess.
612
* Skip specific tests when the dependencies aren't met. This includes
613
some ``setup.py`` tests when ``python-dev`` is not available, and
614
some tests that depend on paramiko. (John Arbash Meinel, Mattheiu Moy)
616
* Fallback to Paramiko properly, if no ``ssh`` executable exists on
617
the system. (Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
619
* ``Branch.bind(other_branch)`` no longer takes a write lock on the
620
other branch, and will not push or pull between the two branches.
621
API users will need to perform a push or pull or update operation if they
622
require branch synchronisation to take place. (Robert Collins, #47344)
624
* When creating a tarball or zipfile export, export unicode names as utf-8
625
paths. This may not work perfectly on all platforms, but has the best
626
chance of working in the common case. (John Arbash Meinel, #56816)
628
* When committing, only files that exist in working tree or basis tree
629
may be specified (Aaron Bentley, #50793)
633
* Fixes to run on Python 2.5 (Brian M. Carlson, Martin Pool, Marien Zwart)
637
* TestCaseInTempDir now creates a separate directory for HOME, rather
638
than having HOME set to the same location as the working directory.
641
* run_bzr_subprocess() can take an optional 'env_changes={}' parameter,
642
which will update os.environ inside the spawned child. It also can
643
take a 'universal_newlines=True', which helps when checking the output
644
of the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
646
* Refactor SFTP vendors to allow easier re-use when ssh is used.
649
* Transport.list_dir() and Transport.iter_files_recursive() should always
650
return urlescaped paths. This is now tested (there were bugs in a few
651
of the transports) (Andrew Bennetts, David Allouche, John Arbash Meinel)
653
* New utility function symbol_versioning.deprecation_string. Returns the
654
formatted string for a callable, deprecation format pair. (Robert Collins)
656
* New TestCase helper applyDeprecated. This allows you to call a callable
657
which is deprecated without it spewing to the screen, just by supplying
658
the deprecation format string issued for it. (Robert Collins)
660
* Transport.append and Transport.put have been deprecated in favor of
661
.append_bytes, .append_file, .put_bytes, and .put_file. This removes the
662
ambiguity in what type of object the functions take.
663
Transport.non_atomic_put_{bytes,file} has also been added. Which works
664
similarly to Transport.append() except for SFTP, it doesn't have a round
665
trip when opening the file. Also, it provides functionality for creating
666
a parent directory when trying to create a file, rather than raise
667
NoSuchFile and forcing the caller to repeat their request.
670
* WorkingTree has a new api ``unversion`` which allow the unversioning of
671
entries by their file id. (Robert Collins)
673
* WorkingTree.pending_merges is deprecated. Please use the get_parent_ids
674
(introduced in 0.10) method instead. (Robert Collins)
676
* WorkingTree has a new lock_tree_write method which locks the branch for
677
read rather than write. This is appropriate for actions which only need
678
the branch data for reference rather than mutation. A new decorator
679
needs_tree_write_lock is provided in the workingtree module. Like the
680
needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock decorators this allows static
681
declaration of the locking requirements of a function to ensure that
682
a lock is taken out for casual scripts. (Robert Collins, #54107)
684
* All WorkingTree methods which write to the tree, but not to the branch
685
have been converted to use ``needs_tree_write_lock`` rather than
686
``needs_write_lock``. Also converted is the revert, conflicts and tree
687
transform modules. This provides a modest performance improvement on
688
metadir style trees, due to the reduce lock-acquisition, and a more
689
significant performance improvement on lightweight checkouts from
690
remote branches, where trivial operations used to pay a significant
691
penalty. It also provides the basis for allowing readonly checkouts.
694
* Special case importing the standard library 'copy' module. This shaves
695
off 40ms of startup time, while retaining compatibility. See:
696
``bzrlib/inspect_for_copy.py`` for more details. (John Arbash Meinel)
698
* WorkingTree has a new parent class MutableTree which represents the
699
specialisations of Tree which are able to be altered. (Robert Collins)
701
* New methods mkdir and put_file_bytes_non_atomic on MutableTree that
702
mutate the tree and its contents. (Robert Collins)
704
* Transport behaviour at the root of the URL is now defined and tested.
705
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
709
* New test helper classs MemoryTree. This is typically accessed via
710
``self.make_branch_and_memory_tree()`` in test cases. (Robert Collins)
712
* Add start_bzr_subprocess and stop_bzr_subprocess to allow test code to
713
continue running concurrently with a subprocess of bzr. (Andrew Bennetts,
716
* Add a new method ``Transport.get_smart_client()``. This is provided to
717
allow upgrades to a richer interface than the VFS one provided by
718
Transport. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
723
* 'merge' now takes --uncommitted, to apply uncommitted changes from a
724
tree. (Aaron Bentley)
726
* 'bzr add --file-ids-from' can be used to specify another path to use
727
for creating file ids, rather than generating all new ones. Internally,
728
the 'action' passed to smart_add_tree() can return file_ids that
729
will be used, rather than having bzrlib generate new ones.
730
(John Arbash Meinel, #55781)
732
* ``bzr selftest --benchmark`` now allows a ``--cache-dir`` parameter.
733
This will cache some of the intermediate trees, and decrease the
734
setup time for benchmark tests. (John Arbash Meinel)
736
* Inverse forms are provided for all boolean options. For example,
737
--strict has --no-strict, --no-recurse has --recurse (Aaron Bentley)
739
* Serialize out Inventories directly, rather than using ElementTree.
740
Writing out a kernel sized inventory drops from 2s down to ~350ms.
741
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
745
* Help diffutils 2.8.4 get along with binary tests (Marien Zwart: #57614)
747
* Change LockDir so that if the lock directory doesn't exist when
748
lock_write() is called, an attempt will be made to create it.
749
(John Arbash Meinel, #56974)
751
* ``bzr uncommit`` preserves pending merges. (John Arbash Meinel, #57660)
753
* Active FTP transport now works as intended. (ghozzy, #56472)
755
* Really fix mutter() so that it won't ever raise a UnicodeError.
756
It means it is possible for ~/.bzr.log to contain non UTF-8 characters.
757
But it is a debugging log, not a real user file.
758
(John Arbash Meinel, #56947, #53880)
760
* Change Command handle to allow Unicode command and options.
761
At present we cannot register Unicode command names, so we will get
762
BzrCommandError('unknown command'), or BzrCommandError('unknown option')
763
But that is better than a UnicodeError + a traceback.
764
(John Arbash Meinel, #57123)
766
* Handle TZ=UTC properly when reading/writing revisions.
767
(John Arbash Meinel, #55783, #56290)
769
* Use GPG_TTY to allow gpg --cl to work with gpg-agent in a pipeline,
770
(passing text to sign in on stdin). (John Arbash Meinel, #54468)
772
* External diff does the right thing for binaries even in foreign
773
languages. (John Arbash Meinel, #56307)
775
* Testament handles more cases when content is unicode. Specific bug was
776
in handling of revision properties. (John Arbash Meinel, Holger Krekel,
779
* The bzr selftest was failing on installed versions due to a bug in a new
780
test helper. (John Arbash Meinel, Robert Collins, #58057)
784
* ``bzrlib.cache_utf8`` contains ``encode()`` and ``decode()`` functions
785
which can be used to cache the conversion between utf8 and Unicode.
786
Especially helpful for some of the knit annotation code, which has to
787
convert revision ids to utf8 to annotate lines in storage.
790
* ``setup.py`` now searches the filesystem to find all packages which
791
need to be installed. This should help make the life of packagers
792
easier. (John Arbash Meinel)
798
* The hard-coded built-in ignore rules have been removed. There are
799
now two rulesets which are enforced. A user global one in
800
~/.bazaar/ignore which will apply to every tree, and the tree
801
specific one '.bzrignore'.
802
~/.bazaar/ignore will be created if it does not exist, but with
803
a more conservative list than the old default.
804
This fixes bugs with default rules being enforced no matter what.
805
The old list of ignore rules from bzr is available by
806
running 'bzr ignore --old-default-rules'.
807
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool, John Arbash Meinel)
809
* 'branches.conf' has been changed to 'locations.conf', since it can apply
810
to more locations than just branch locations.
815
* The revision specifier "revno:" is extended to accept the syntax
816
revno:N:branch. For example,
817
revno:42:http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/ means revision 42 in
818
bzr.dev. (Matthieu Moy)
820
* Tests updates to ensure proper URL handling, UNICODE support, and
821
proper printing when the user's terminal encoding cannot display
822
the path of a file that has been versioned.
823
``bzr branch`` can take a target URL rather than only a local directory.
824
Branch.get_parent()/set_parent() now save a relative path if possible,
825
and normalize the parent based on root, allowing access across
826
different transports. (John Arbash Meinel, Wouter van Heyst, Martin Pool)
827
(Malone #48906, #42699, #40675, #5281, #3980, #36363, #43689,
830
* On Unix, detect terminal width using an ioctl not just $COLUMNS.
831
Use terminal width for single-line logs from ``bzr log --line`` and
832
pending-merge display. (Robert Widhopf-Fenk, Gustavo Niemeyer)
835
* On Windows, detect terminal width using GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo.
836
(Alexander Belchenko)
838
* Speedup improvement for 'date:'-revision search. (Guillaume Pinot).
840
* Show the correct number of revisions pushed when pushing a new branch.
843
* 'bzr selftest' now shows a progress bar with the number of tests, and
844
progress made. 'make check' shows tests in -v mode, to be more useful
845
for the PQM status window. (Robert Collins).
846
When using a progress bar, failed tests are printed out, rather than
847
being overwritten by the progress bar until the suite finishes.
850
* 'bzr selftest --benchmark' will run a new benchmarking selftest.
851
'bzr selftest --benchmark --lsprof-timed' will use lsprofile to generate
852
profile data for the individual profiled calls, allowing for fine
853
grained analysis of performance.
854
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
856
* 'bzr commit' shows a progress bar. This is useful for commits over sftp
857
where commit can take an appreciable time. (Robert Collins)
859
* 'bzr add' is now less verbose in telling you what ignore globs were
860
matched by files being ignored. Instead it just tells you how many
861
were ignored (because you might reasonably be expecting none to be
862
ignored). 'bzr add -v' is unchanged and will report every ignored
863
file. (Robert Collins).
865
* ftp now has a test server if medusa is installed. As part of testing,
866
ftp support has been improved, including support for supplying a
867
non-standard port. (John Arbash Meinel).
869
* 'bzr log --line' shows the revision number, and uses only the
870
first line of the log message (#5162, Alexander Belchenko;
873
* 'bzr status' has had the --all option removed. The 'bzr ls' command
874
should be used to retrieve all versioned files. (Robert Collins)
876
* 'bzr bundle OTHER/BRANCH' will create a bundle which can be sent
877
over email, and applied on the other end, while maintaining ancestry.
878
This bundle can be applied with either 'bzr merge' or 'bzr pull',
879
the same way you would apply another branch.
880
(John Arbash Meinel, Aaron Bentley)
882
* 'bzr whoami' can now be used to set your identity from the command line,
883
for a branch or globally. (Robey Pointer)
885
* 'bzr checkout' now aliased to 'bzr co', and 'bzr annotate' to 'bzr ann'.
888
* 'bzr revert DIRECTORY' now reverts the contents of the directory as well.
891
* 'bzr get sftp://foo' gives a better error when paramiko is not present.
892
Also updates things like 'http+pycurl://' if pycurl is not present.
893
(John Arbash Meinel) (Malone #47821, #52204)
895
* New env variable BZR_PROGRESS_BAR, sets the default progress bar type.
896
Can be set to 'none' or 'dummy' to disable the progress bar, 'dots' or
897
'tty' to create the respective type. (John Arbash Meinel, #42197, #51107)
899
* Improve the help text for 'bzr diff' to explain what various options do.
900
(John Arbash Meinel, #6391)
902
* 'bzr uncommit -r 10' now uncommits revisions 11.. rather than uncommitting
903
revision 10. This makes -r10 more in line with what other commands do.
904
'bzr uncommit' also now saves the pending merges of the revisions that
905
were removed. So it is safe to uncommit after a merge, fix something,
906
and commit again. (John Arbash Meinel, #32526, #31426)
908
* 'bzr init' now also works on remote locations.
909
(Wouter van Heyst, #48904)
911
* HTTP support has been updated. When using pycurl we now support
912
connection keep-alive, which reduces dns requests and round trips.
913
And for both urllib and pycurl we support multi-range requests,
914
which decreases the number of round-trips. Performance results for
915
``bzr branch http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/`` indicate
916
http branching is now 2-3x faster, and ``bzr pull`` in an existing
917
branch is as much as 4x faster.
918
(Michael Ellerman, Johan Rydberg, John Arbash Meinel, #46768)
920
* Performance improvements for sftp. Branching and pulling are now up to
921
2x faster. Utilize paramiko.readv() support for async requests if it
922
is available (paramiko > 1.6) (John Arbash Meinel)
926
* Fix shadowed definition of TestLocationConfig that caused some
927
tests not to run. (#32587, Erik Bågfors, Michael Ellerman,
930
* Fix unnecessary requirement of sign-my-commits that it be run from
931
a working directory. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
933
* 'bzr push location' will only remember the push location if it succeeds
934
in connecting to the remote location. (#49742, John Arbash Meinel)
936
* 'bzr revert' no longer toggles the executable bit on win32
937
(#45010, John Arbash Meinel)
939
* Handle broken pipe under win32 correctly. (John Arbash Meinel)
941
* sftp tests now work correctly on win32 if you have a newer paramiko
944
* Cleanup win32 test suite, and general cleanup of places where
945
file handles were being held open. (John Arbash Meinel)
947
* When specifying filenames for 'diff -r x..y', the name of the file in the
948
working directory can be used, even if its name is different in both x
951
* File-ids containing single- or double-quotes are handled correctly by
952
push. (#52227, Aaron Bentley)
954
* Normalize unicode filenames to ensure cross-platform consistency.
955
(John Arbash Meinel, #43689)
957
* The argument parser can now handle '-' as an argument. Currently
958
no code interprets it specially (it is mostly handled as a file named
959
'-'). But plugins, and future operations can use it.
960
(John Arbash meinel, #50984)
962
* Bundles can properly read binary files with a plain '\r' in them.
963
(John Arbash Meinel, #51927)
965
* Tuning iter_entries() to be more efficient (John Arbash Meinel, #5444)
967
* Lots of win32 fixes (the test suite passes again).
968
(John Arbash Meinel, #50155)
970
* Handle openbsd returning None for sys.getfilesystemencoding() (#41183)
972
* Support ftp APPE (append) to allow Knits to be used over ftp (#42592)
974
* Removals are only committed if they match the filespec (or if there is
975
no filespec). (#46635, Aaron Bentley)
977
* smart-add recurses through all supplied directories
978
(John Arbash Meinel, #52578)
980
* Make the bundle reader extra lines before and after the bundle text.
981
This allows you to parse an email with the bundle inline.
982
(John Arbash Meinel, #49182)
984
* Change the file id generator to squash a little bit more. Helps when
985
working with long filenames on windows. (Also helps for unicode filenames
986
not generating hidden files). (John Arbash Meinel, #43801)
988
* Restore terminal mode on C-c while reading sftp password. (#48923,
989
Nicholas Allen, Martin Pool)
991
* Timestamps are rounded to 1ms, and revision entries can be recreated
992
exactly. (John Arbash Meinel, Jamie Wilkinson, #40693)
994
* Branch.base has changed to a URL, but ~/.bazaar/locations.conf should
995
use local paths, since it is user visible (John Arbash Meinel, #53653)
997
* ``bzr status foo`` when foo was unversioned used to cause a full delta
998
to be generated (John Arbash Meinel, #53638)
1000
* When reading revision properties, an empty value should be considered
1001
the empty string, not None (John Arbash Meinel, #47782)
1003
* ``bzr diff --diff-options`` can now handle binary files being changed.
1004
Also, the output is consistent when --diff-options is not supplied.
1005
(John Arbash Meinel, #54651, #52930)
1007
* Use the right suffixes for loading plugins (John Arbash Meinel, #51810)
1009
* Fix Branch.get_parent() to handle the case when the parent is not
1010
accessible (John Arbash Meinel, #52976)
1014
* Combine the ignore rules into a single regex rather than looping over
1015
them to reduce the threshold where N^2 behaviour occurs in operations
1016
like status. (Jan Hudec, Robert Collins).
1018
* Appending to bzrlib.DEFAULT_IGNORE is now deprecated. Instead, use
1019
one of the add functions in bzrlib.ignores. (John Arbash Meinel)
1021
* 'bzr push' should only push the ancestry of the current revision, not
1022
all of the history in the repository. This is especially important for
1023
shared repositories. (John Arbash Meinel)
1025
* bzrlib.delta.compare_trees now iterates in alphabetically sorted order,
1026
rather than randomly walking the inventories. (John Arbash Meinel)
1028
* Doctests are now run in temporary directories which are cleaned up when
1029
they finish, rather than using special ScratchDir/ScratchBranch objects.
1032
* Split ``check`` into separate methods on the branch and on the repository,
1033
so that it can be specialized in ways that are useful or efficient for
1034
different formats. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
1036
* Deprecate Repository.all_revision_ids; most methods don't really need
1037
the global revision graph but only that part leading up to a particular
1038
revision. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
1040
* Add a BzrDirFormat control_formats list which allows for control formats
1041
that do not use '.bzr' to store their data - i.e. '.svn', '.hg' etc.
1042
(Robert Collins, Jelmer Vernooij).
1044
* bzrlib.diff.external_diff can be redirected to any file-like object.
1045
Uses subprocess instead of spawnvp.
1046
(#4047, #48914, James Henstridge, John Arbash Meinel)
1048
* New command line option '--profile-imports', which will install a custom
1049
importer to log time to import modules and regex compilation time to
1050
sys.stderr (John Arbash Meinel)
1052
* 'EmptyTree' is now deprecated, please use repository.revision_tree(None)
1053
instead. (Robert Collins)
1055
* "RevisionTree" is now in bzrlib/revisiontree.py. (Robert Collins)
1057
bzr 0.8.2 2006-05-17
1061
* setup.py failed to install launchpad plugin. (Martin Pool)
1063
bzr 0.8.1 2006-05-16
1067
* Fix failure to commit a merge in a checkout. (Martin Pool,
1068
Robert Collins, Erik Bågfors, #43959)
1070
* Nicer messages from 'commit' in the case of renames, and correct
1071
messages when a merge has occured. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1073
* Separate functionality from assert statements as they are skipped in
1074
optimized mode of python. Add the same check to pending merges.
1075
(#44443, Olaf Conradi)
1079
* Do not show the None revision in output of bzr ancestry. (Olaf Conradi)
1081
* Add info on standalone branches without a working tree.
1082
(#44155, Olaf Conradi)
1084
* Fix bug in knits when raising InvalidRevisionId. (#44284, Olaf Conradi)
1088
* Make editor invocation comply with Debian Policy. First check
1089
environment variables VISUAL and EDITOR, then try editor from
1090
alternatives system. If that all fails, fall back to the pre-defined
1091
list of editors. (#42904, Olaf Conradi)
1095
* New 'register-branch' command registers a public branch into
1096
Launchpad.net, where it can be associated with bugs, etc.
1097
(Martin Pool, Bjorn Tillenius, Robert Collins)
1101
* New public api in InventoryEntry - 'describe_change(old, new)' which
1102
provides a human description of the changes between two old and
1103
new. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1107
* Fix test case for bzr info in upgrading a standalone branch to metadir,
1108
uses bzrlib api now. (Olaf Conradi)
1112
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1114
Release 0.8 of bzr introduces a new format for history storage, called
1115
'knit', as an evolution of to the 'weave' format used in 0.7. Local
1116
and remote operations are faster using knits than weaves. Several
1117
operations including 'init', 'init-repo', and 'upgrade' take a
1118
--format option that controls this. Branching from an existing branch
1119
will keep the same format.
1121
It is possible to merge, pull and push between branches of different
1122
formats but this is slower than moving data between homogenous
1123
branches. It is therefore recommended (but not required) that you
1124
upgrade all branches for a project at the same time. Information on
1125
formats is shown by 'bzr info'.
1127
bzr 0.8 now allows creation of 'repositories', which hold the history
1128
of files and revisions for several branches. Previously bzr kept all
1129
the history for a branch within the .bzr directory at the root of the
1130
branch, and this is still the default. To create a repository, use
1131
the new 'bzr init-repo' command. Branches exist as directories under
1132
the repository and contain just a small amount of information
1133
indicating the current revision of the branch.
1135
bzr 0.8 also supports 'checkouts', which are similar to in cvs and
1136
subversion. Checkouts are associated with a branch (optionally in a
1137
repository), which contains all the historical information. The
1138
result is that a checkout can be deleted without losing any
1139
already-committed revisions. A new 'update' command is also available.
1141
Repositories and checkouts are not supported with the 0.7 storage
1142
format. To use them you must upgrad to either knits, or to the
1143
'metaweave' format, which uses weaves but changes the .bzr directory
1149
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
1150
convention. Paths now take the form:
1151
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
1153
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
1155
* The FTP transport now tries to reconnect after a temporary
1156
failure. ftp put is made atomic. (Matthieu Moy)
1158
* The FTP transport now maintains a pool of connections, and
1159
reuses them to avoid multiple connections to the same host (like
1160
sftp did). (Daniel Silverstone)
1162
* The bzr_man.py file has been removed. To create the man page now,
1163
use ./generate_docs.py man. The new program can also create other files.
1164
Run "python generate_docs.py --help" for usage information. (Hans
1165
Ulrich Niedermann & James Blackwell).
1167
* Man Page now gives full help (James Blackwell). Help also updated to
1168
reflect user config now being stored in .bazaar (Hans Ulrich
1171
* It's now possible to set aliases in bazaar.conf (Erik Bågfors)
1173
* Pull now accepts a --revision argument (Erik Bågfors)
1175
* 'bzr re-sign' now allows multiple revisions to be supplied on the command
1176
line. You can now use the following command to sign all of your old commits.
1177
find .bzr/revision-store// -name my@email-* \
1178
| sed 's/.*\/\/..\///' \
1181
* Upgrade can now upgrade over the network. (Robert Collins)
1183
* Two new commands 'bzr checkout' and 'bzr update' allow for CVS/SVN-alike
1184
behaviour. By default they will cache history in the checkout, but
1185
with --lightweight almost all data is kept in the master branch.
1188
* 'revert' unversions newly-versioned files, instead of deleting them.
1190
* 'merge' is more robust. Conflict messages have changed.
1192
* 'merge' and 'revert' no longer clobber existing files that end in '~' or
1195
* Default log format can be set in configuration and plugins can register
1196
their own formatters. (Erik Bågfors)
1198
* New 'reconcile' command will check branch consistency and repair indexes
1199
that can become out of sync in pre 0.8 formats. (Robert Collins,
1202
* New 'bzr init --format' and 'bzr upgrade --format' option to control
1203
what storage format is created or produced. (Robert Collins,
1206
* Add parent location to 'bzr info', if there is one. (Olaf Conradi)
1208
* New developer commands 'weave-list' and 'weave-join'. (Martin Pool)
1210
* New 'init-repository' command, plus support for repositories in 'init'
1211
and 'branch' (Aaron Bentley, Erik Bågfors, Robert Collins)
1213
* Improve output of 'info' command. Show all relevant locations related to
1214
working tree, branch and repository. Use kibibytes for binary quantities.
1215
Fix off-by-one error in missing revisions of working tree. Make 'info'
1216
work on branches, repositories and remote locations. Show locations
1217
relative to the shared repository, if applicable. Show locking status
1218
of locations. (Olaf Conradi)
1220
* Diff and merge now safely handle binary files. (Aaron Bentley)
1222
* 'pull' and 'push' now normalise the revision history, so that any two
1223
branches with the same tip revision will have the same output from 'log'.
1226
* 'merge' accepts --remember option to store parent location, like 'push'
1227
and 'pull'. (Olaf Conradi)
1229
* bzr status and diff when files given as arguments do not exist
1230
in the relevant trees. (Martin Pool, #3619)
1232
* Add '.hg' to the default ignore list. (Martin Pool)
1234
* 'knit' is now the default disk format. This improves disk performance and
1235
utilization, increases incremental pull performance, robustness with SFTP
1236
and allows checkouts over SFTP to perform acceptably.
1237
The initial Knit code was contributed by Johan Rydberg based on a
1238
specification by Martin Pool.
1239
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley, Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool).
1241
* New tool to generate all-in-one html version of the manual. (Alexander
1244
* Hitting CTRL-C while doing an SFTP push will no longer cause stale locks
1245
to be left in the SFTP repository. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
1247
* New option 'diff --prefix' to control how files are named in diff
1248
output, with shortcuts '-p0' and '-p1' corresponding to the options for
1249
GNU patch. (Alexander Belchenko, Goffredo Baroncelli, Martin Pool)
1251
* Add --revision option to 'annotate' command. (Olaf Conradi)
1253
* If bzr shows an unexpected revision-history after pulling (perhaps due
1254
to a reweave) it can now be corrected by 'bzr reconcile'.
1259
* Commit is now verbose by default, and shows changed filenames and the
1260
new revision number. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1262
* Unify 'mv', 'move', 'rename'. (#5379, Matthew Fuller)
1264
* 'bzr -h' shows help. (#35940, Martin Pool, Ian Bicking)
1266
* Make 'pull' and 'push' remember location on failure using --remember.
1269
* For compatibility, make old format for using weaves inside metadir
1270
available as 'metaweave' format. Rename format 'metadir' to 'default'.
1271
Clean up help for option --format in commands 'init', 'init-repo' and
1272
'upgrade'. (Olaf Conradi)
1276
* The internal storage of history, and logical branch identity have now
1277
been split into Branch, and Repository. The common locking and file
1278
management routines are now in bzrlib.lockablefiles.
1279
(Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1281
* Transports can now raise DependencyNotPresent if they need a library
1282
which is not installed, and then another implementation will be
1283
tried. (Martin Pool)
1285
* Remove obsolete (and no-op) `decode` parameter to `Transport.get`.
1288
* Using Tree Transform for merge, revert, tree-building
1290
* WorkingTree.create, Branch.create, WorkingTree.create_standalone,
1291
Branch.initialize are now deprecated. Please see BzrDir.create_* for
1292
replacement API's. (Robert Collins)
1294
* New BzrDir class represents the .bzr control directory and manages
1295
formatting issues. (Robert Collins)
1297
* New repository.InterRepository class encapsulates Repository to
1298
Repository actions and allows for clean selection of optimised code
1299
paths. (Robert Collins)
1301
* bzrlib.fetch.fetch and bzrlib.fetch.greedy_fetch are now deprecated,
1302
please use 'branch.fetch' or 'repository.fetch' depending on your
1303
needs. (Robert Collins)
1305
* deprecated methods now have a 'is_deprecated' flag on them that can
1306
be checked, if you need to determine whether a given callable is
1307
deprecated at runtime. (Robert Collins)
1309
* Progress bars are now nested - see
1310
bzrlib.ui.ui_factory.nested_progress_bar. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
1312
* New API call get_format_description() for each type of format.
1315
* Changed branch.set_parent() to accept None to remove parent.
1318
* Deprecated BzrError AmbiguousBase. (Olaf Conradi)
1320
* WorkingTree.branch is now a read only property. (Robert Collins)
1322
* bzrlib.ui.text.TextUIFactory now accepts a bar_type parameter which
1323
can be None or a factory that will create a progress bar. This is
1324
useful for testing or for overriding the bzrlib.progress heuristic.
1327
* New API method get_physical_lock_status() to query locks present on a
1328
transport. (Olaf Conradi)
1330
* Repository.reconcile now takes a thorough keyword parameter to allow
1331
requesting an indepth reconciliation, rather than just a data-loss
1332
check. (Robert Collins)
1334
* bzrlib.ui.ui_factory protocol now supports 'get_boolean' to prompt
1335
the user for yes/no style input. (Robert Collins)
1339
* SFTP tests now shortcut the SSH negotiation, reducing test overhead
1340
for testing SFTP protocol support. (Robey Pointer)
1342
* Branch formats are now tested once per implementation (see bzrlib.
1343
tests.branch_implementations. This is analagous to the transport
1344
interface tests, and has been followed up with working tree,
1345
repository and BzrDir tests. (Robert Collins)
1347
* New test base class TestCaseWithTransport provides a transport aware
1348
test environment, useful for testing any transport-interface using
1349
code. The test suite option --transport controls the transport used
1350
by this class (when its not being used as part of implementation
1351
contract testing). (Robert Collins)
1353
* Close logging handler on disabling the test log. This will remove the
1354
handler from the internal list inside python's logging module,
1355
preventing shutdown from closing it twice. (Olaf Conradi)
1357
* Move test case for uncommit to blackbox tests. (Olaf Conradi)
1359
* run_bzr and run_bzr_captured now accept a 'stdin="foo"' parameter which
1360
will provide String("foo") to the command as its stdin.
1366
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
1367
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
1369
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
1370
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
1371
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
1374
* Under Windows configuration directory is now %APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0
1375
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
1377
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by BZR_HOME
1378
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in BZR_HOME, then
1379
in HOME. Under Windows the order is: BZR_HOME, APPDATA (usually
1380
points to C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data), HOME.
1381
(John Arbash Meinel)
1383
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
1384
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
1385
used. (Robert Collins)
1387
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
1388
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
1391
* Permissions on files underneath .bzr/ are inherited from the .bzr
1392
directory. So for a shared repository, simply doing 'chmod -R g+w .bzr/'
1393
will mean that future file will be created with group write permissions.
1395
* configure.in and config.guess are no longer in the builtin default
1398
* '.sw[nop]' pattern ignored, to ignore vim swap files for nameless
1399
files. (John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool)
1403
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
1404
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
1406
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
1408
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
1410
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
1411
tree. (Robert Collins)
1413
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
1414
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
1415
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
1418
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
1421
* Tweaks to short log printing
1423
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
1426
* If $BZR_PDB is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
1427
occurs. (Martin Pool)
1429
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
1430
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
1432
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
1433
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
1435
* Commit editor temporary files now start with 'bzr_log.', to allow
1436
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
1437
settings. (Magnus Therning)
1439
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
1440
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
1442
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
1443
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
1446
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
1447
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
1449
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
1450
(#3632, Matthieu Moy)
1452
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
1453
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
1455
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
1458
* 'bzr add' now takes a --dry-run parameter which shows you what would be
1459
added, but doesn't actually add anything. (Michael Ellerman)
1461
* 'bzr add' now lists how many files were ignored per glob. add --verbose
1462
lists the specific files. (Aaron Bentley)
1464
* 'bzr missing' now supports displaying changes in diverged trees and can
1465
be limited to show what either end of the comparison is missing.
1466
(Aaron Bently, with a little prompting from Daniel Silverstone)
1470
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
1472
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
1474
* Error when run with -OO
1476
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
1479
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
1481
* Change status to 3 for all errors
1483
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
1484
ignored by diff and status
1486
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
1487
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
1489
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
1491
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
1493
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
1494
status' output. (#4503, Daniel Silverstone)
1496
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
1497
email address. (Marien Zwart)
1499
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages. (Harald
1502
* List of plugin directories in BZR_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable is
1503
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
1505
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
1507
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
1508
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
1510
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters. (Martin
1513
* Remove Makefile.in from default ignore list. (#6413, Tollef Fog
1516
* Fix failure in 'bzr added'. (Nathan McCallum, Martin Pool)
1520
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
1521
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
1523
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
1525
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
1527
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
1529
* Updated build_tree to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
1530
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
1531
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
1533
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
1535
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
1536
(John Arbash Meinel)
1538
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
1540
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
1541
If adding a new test script please add that to
1542
bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__. (Robert Collins)
1544
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
1545
imported. (Martin Pool)
1547
* Make check now runs the test suite twice - once with the default locale,
1548
and once with all locales forced to C, to expose bugs. This is not
1549
trivially done within python, so for now its only triggered by running
1550
Make check. Integrators and packagers who wish to check for full
1551
platform support should run 'make check' to test the source.
1554
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
1555
(Martin Pool) (NB: TestSkipped should only be raised for correctable
1556
reasons - see the wiki spec ImprovingBzrTestSuite).
1558
* Test sftp with relative, absolute-in-homedir and absolute-not-in-homedir
1559
paths for the transport tests. Introduce blackbox remote sftp tests that
1560
test the same permutations. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
1562
* Transport implementation tests are now independent of the local file
1563
system, which allows tests for esoteric transports, and for features
1564
not available in the local file system. They also repeat for variations
1565
on the URL scheme that can introduce issues in the transport code,
1566
see bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter() for this.
1569
* TestCase.build_tree uses the transport interface to build trees, pass
1570
in a transport parameter to give it an existing connection.
1575
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
1576
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
1578
* commands.display_command now returns the result of the decorated
1579
function. (Robert Collins)
1581
* LocationConfig now has a set_user_option(key, value) call to save
1582
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
1583
if needed). (Robert Collins)
1585
* Branch has two new methods, get_push_location and set_push_location
1586
to respectively, get and set the push location. (Robert Collins)
1588
* commands.register_command now takes an optional flag to signal that
1589
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
1590
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
1591
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
1592
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
1593
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
1594
version. (Robert Collins)
1596
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
1597
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
1599
* Branch.read_working_inventory has moved to
1600
WorkingTree.read_working_inventory. This necessitated changes to
1601
Branch.get_root_id, and a move of Branch.set_inventory to WorkingTree
1602
as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always be obtained
1603
Branch.working_tree() will raise 'errors.NoWorkingTree' if one cannot
1604
be obtained. (Robert Collins)
1606
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
1609
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree:
1617
* bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch is now smart_add_tree. (Robert Collins)
1619
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
1621
* Rename selftests to `bzrlib.tests.test_foo`. (John A Meinel, Martin
1624
* bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins has been changed from an attribute to a
1625
query method. (Robert Collins)
1627
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
1630
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
1633
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in cmd_pull().
1637
* Branch.controlfile* logic has moved to lockablefiles.LockableFiles, which
1638
is exposed as Branch().control_files. Also this has been altered with the
1639
controlfile pre/suffix replaced by simple method names like 'get' and
1640
'put'. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins).
1642
* Deprecated functions and methods can now be marked as such using the
1643
bzrlib.symbol_versioning module. Marked method have their docstring
1644
updated and will issue a DeprecationWarning using the warnings module
1645
when they are used. (Robert Collins)
1647
* bzrlib.osutils.safe_unicode now exists to provide parameter coercion
1648
for functions that need unicode strings. (Robert Collins)
1654
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
1657
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
1661
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
1662
a separator, not ':'.
1665
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
1666
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
1667
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
1669
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
1670
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
1673
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
1674
has been added that suppresses all output.
1676
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
1679
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
1680
Goffredo Baroncelli.
1682
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
1683
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
1685
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
1686
a revision. (Robert Collins)
1688
* If you set check_signatures=require for a path in
1689
~/.bazaar/branches.conf then bzr will invoke your
1690
gpg_signing_command (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
1691
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
1693
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
1695
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
1696
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
1698
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
1699
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
1701
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
1702
output directory, if one was supplied.
1704
* If the option 'post_commit' is set to one (or more) python function
1705
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
1706
after the commit has completed, with the branch and revision_id as
1707
parameters. (Robert Collins)
1709
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
1711
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
1712
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
1714
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
1715
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
1716
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
1718
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
1719
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
1721
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
1724
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
1726
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
1730
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
1731
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
1732
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
1734
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
1735
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
1736
related questions. (Robert Collins)
1738
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
1739
is given. (Martin Pool)
1741
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
1742
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
1743
file. (Robert Collins)
1745
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
1750
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
1751
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
1752
representation. (Martin Pool).
1754
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
1755
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
1756
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
1758
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
1761
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
1762
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
1765
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
1766
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
1767
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
1768
available, construct a ``*Config``, and use its ``signature_checking``,
1769
``username`` and ``user_email`` methods. (Robert Collins)
1771
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
1772
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
1773
import other plugins during the __init__ of your plugin though, as
1774
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
1775
python path. (Robert Collins)
1777
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
1778
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
1779
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
1780
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
1782
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
1783
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
1785
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
1786
lock_read, lock_write and unlock methods for convenience. (Robert
1789
* Two decorators, needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock have been added
1790
to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
1791
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
1793
* Branch.open_containing now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
1794
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
1795
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
1797
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
1798
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
1800
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as WorkingTree.pull().
1801
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
1802
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
1805
* config.Config has a 'get_user_option' call that accepts an option name.
1806
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
1807
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
1808
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
1811
* merge.merge_inner now has tempdir as an optional parameter. (Robert
1814
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
1815
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
1818
* WorkingTree.__del__ has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
1819
doing what it was intended to. See WorkingTree.__init__ for a comment
1820
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
1822
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
1823
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
1824
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
1826
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
1827
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
1828
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
1830
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
1831
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
1833
* 'merge_flex' no longer calls conflict_handler.finalize(), instead that
1834
is called by merge_inner. This is so that the conflict count can be
1835
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
1836
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
1837
caller. (Robert Collins)
1839
* 'revision.revision_graph can handle having only partial history for
1840
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
1843
* New builtins.branch_files uses the standard file_list rules to produce
1844
a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch (Aaron Bentley)
1846
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
1848
* New bzrlib.version_info tuple (similar to sys.version_info), which can
1849
be used by programs importing bzrlib.
1853
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
1854
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
1856
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
1857
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
1860
bzr 0.1.1 2005-10-12
1864
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
1865
allow directories to be listed.
1867
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
1868
upgrading branch format.
1872
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
1879
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
1880
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
1881
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
1882
high-latency connections.
1886
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
1889
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
1890
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
1892
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
1893
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
1894
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
1895
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
1897
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
1898
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
1900
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
1901
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
1903
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
1904
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
1905
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
1907
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
1908
for files with only a change to their executable status.
1909
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
1912
* HTTP tests now force off the use of http_proxy for the duration.
1913
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
1915
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
1916
different partial views of history.
1918
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
1919
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
1923
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
1924
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
1925
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
1927
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
1928
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
1931
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
1932
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
1934
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
1937
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
1938
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
1940
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
1941
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
1942
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
1943
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
1945
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
1947
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
1948
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
1951
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
1952
Contributed by Robert Collins.
1954
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
1955
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
1956
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
1961
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
1962
for your viewing pleasure.
1964
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
1965
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
1967
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
1968
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
1969
handling of such circumstances.
1974
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
1975
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
1977
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
1978
of tests to run, e.g. 'bzr selftest test_weave'
1981
bzr 0.0.9 2005-09-23
1985
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
1987
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
1990
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
1992
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
1994
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
1995
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
1999
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
2000
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
2002
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
2003
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
2004
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
2005
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
2008
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
2009
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
2013
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
2015
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
2016
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
2019
bzr 0.0.8 2005-09-20
2023
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
2024
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
2025
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
2026
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
2029
* Ignore .DS_Store (contains Mac metadata) by default. Patch from
2032
* If you set BZR_EDITOR in the environment, it is checked in
2033
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
2034
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
2035
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
2036
for the operating system is still tried.
2038
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
2039
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
2040
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
2045
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
2049
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
2051
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
2054
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
2060
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
2062
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
2065
bzr-0.0.7 2005-09-02
2069
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
2070
help with intelligent shell completion.
2072
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
2077
* Much better merge support.
2079
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
2080
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
2086
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
2087
mention revisions that are not present.
2089
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
2091
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
2093
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
2094
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
2099
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
2101
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
2102
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
2108
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
2109
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
