12
* New -Dhttp debug option reports http connections, requests and responses.
17
* Catch ShortReadvErrors while using pycurl. Also make readv more robust by
18
allowing multiple GET requests to be issued if too many ranges are
20
(Vincent Ladeuil, #172701)
22
* Check for missing basis texts when fetching from packs to packs.
23
(John Arbash Meinel, #165290)
25
* Fall back to showing e-mail in ``log --short/--line`` if the committer/author has
26
only e-mail. (Lukáš Lalinský, #157026)
34
* The default repository format is now ``pack-0.92``. This
35
default is used when creating new repositories with ``init`` and
36
``init-repo``, and when branching over bzr+ssh or bzr+hpss.
37
(See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164626)
39
This format can be read and written by Bazaar 0.92 and later, and
40
data can be transferred to and from older formats.
42
To upgrade, please reconcile your repository (``bzr reconcile``), and then
43
upgrade (``bzr upgrade``).
45
``pack-0.92`` offers substantially better scaling and performance than the
46
previous knits format. Some operations are slower where the code already
47
had bad scaling characteristics under knits, the pack format makes such
48
operations more visible as part of being more scalable overall. We will
49
correct such operations over the coming releases and encourage the filing
50
of bugs on any operation which you observe to be slower in a packs
51
repository. One particular case that we do not intend to fix is pulling
52
data from a pack repository into a knit repository over a high latency
53
link; downgrading such data requires reinsertion of the file texts, and
54
this is a classic space/time tradeoff. The current implementation is
55
conservative on memory usage because we need to support converting data
56
from any tree without problems.
57
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool, #164476)
61
* Disable detection of plink.exe as possible ssh vendor. Plink vendor
62
still available if user selects it explicitly with BZR_SSH environment
63
variable. (Alexander Belchenko, workaround for bug #107593)
65
* The pack format is now accessible as "pack-0.92", or "pack-0.92-subtree"
66
to enable the subtree functions (for example, for bzr-svn).
67
See http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/developer/packrepo.html
72
* New ``authentication.conf`` file holding the password or other credentials
73
for remote servers. This can be used for ssh, sftp, smtp and other
77
* New rich-root and rich-root-pack formats, recording the same data about
78
tree roots that's recorded for all other directories.
79
(Aaron Bentley, #164639)
81
* ``pack-0.92`` repositories can now be reconciled.
82
(Robert Collins, #154173)
84
* ``switch`` command added for changing the branch a lightweight checkout
85
is associated with and updating the tree to reflect the latest content
86
accordingly. This command was previously part of the BzrTools plug-in.
87
(Ian Clatworthy, Aaron Bentley, David Allouche)
89
* ``reconfigure`` command can now convert branches, trees, or checkouts to
90
lightweight checkouts. (Aaron Bentley)
94
* Commit updates the state of the working tree via a delta rather than
95
supplying entirely new basis trees. For commit of a single specified file
96
this reduces the wall clock time for commit by roughly a 30%.
97
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
99
* Commit with many automatically found deleted paths no longer performs
100
linear scanning for the children of those paths during inventory
101
iteration. This should fix commit performance blowing out when many such
102
paths occur during commit. (Robert Collins, #156491)
104
* Fetch with pack repositories will no longer read the entire history graph.
105
(Robert Collins, #88319)
107
* Revert takes out an appropriate lock when reverting to a basis tree, and
108
does not read the basis inventory twice. (Robert Collins)
110
* Diff does not require an inventory to be generated on dirstate trees.
111
(Aaron Bentley, #149254)
115
* ``bzr send`` now doesn't require the target e-mail address to be
116
specified on the command line if an interactive e-mail client is used.
119
* ``bzr tags`` now prints the revision number for each tag, instead of
120
the revision id, unless --show-ids is passed. In addition, tags can be
121
sorted chronologically instead of lexicographically with --sort=time.
122
(Adeodato Simó, #120231)
124
* Windows standalone version of bzr is able to load system-wide plugins from
125
"plugins" subdirectory in installation directory. In addition standalone
126
installer write to the registry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Bazaar) useful info
127
about paths and bzr version. (Alexander Belchenko, #129298)
133
* A progress bar has been added for knitpack -> knitpack fetching.
134
(Robert Collins, #157789, #159147)
136
* Branching from a branch via smart server now preserves the repository
137
format. (Andrew Bennetts, #164626)
139
* ``commit`` is now able to invoke an external editor in a non-ascii
140
directory. (Daniel Watkins, #84043)
142
* Catch connection errors for ftp.
143
(Vincent Ladeuil, #164567)
145
* ``check`` no longer reports spurious unreferenced text versions.
146
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, #162931, #165071)
148
* Conflicts are now resolved recursively by ``revert``.
149
(Aaron Bentley, #102739)
151
* Detect invalid transport reuse attempts by catching invalid URLs.
152
(Vincent Ladeuil, #161819)
154
* Do no use timeout in HttpServer anymore.
155
(Vincent Ladeuil, #158972).
157
* Don't catch the exceptions related to the http pipeline status before
158
retrying an http request or some programming errors may be masked.
159
(Vincent Ladeuil, #160012)
161
* Fix ``bzr rm`` to not delete modified and ignored files.
162
(Lukáš Lalinský, #172598)
164
* Fix exception when revisionspec contains merge revisons but log
165
formatter doesn't support merge revisions. (Kent Gibson, #148908)
167
* Fix exception when ScopeReplacer is assigned to before any members have
168
been retrieved. (Aaron Bentley)
170
* Fix multiple connections during checkout --lightweight.
171
(Vincent Ladeuil, #159150)
173
* Fix possible error in insert_data_stream when copying between
174
pack repositories over bzr+ssh or bzr+http.
175
KnitVersionedFile.get_data_stream now makes sure that requested
176
compression parents are sent before any delta hunks that depend
178
(Martin Pool, #164637)
180
* Fix typo in limiting offsets coalescing for http, leading to
181
whole files being downloaded instead of parts.
182
(Vincent Ladeuil, #165061)
184
* FTP server errors don't error in the error handling code.
185
(Robert Collins, #161240)
187
* Give a clearer message when a pull fails because the source needs
189
(Martin Pool, #164443)
191
* It is clearer when a plugin cannot be loaded because of its name, and a
192
suggestion for an acceptable name is given. (Daniel Watkins, #103023)
194
* Leave port as None in transport objects if user doesn't
195
specify a port in urls.
196
(vincent Ladeuil, #150860)
198
* Make sure Repository.fetch(self) is properly a no-op for all
199
Repository implementations. (John Arbash Meinel, #158333)
201
* Mark .bzr directories as "hidden" on Windows.
202
(Alexander Belchenko, #71147)
204
* ``merge --uncommitted`` can now operate on a single file.
205
(Aaron Bentley, Lukáš Lalinský, #136890)
207
* Obsolete packs are now cleaned up by pack and autopack operations.
208
(Robert Collins, #153789)
210
* Operations pulling data from a smart server where the underlying
211
repositories are not both annotated/both unannotated will now work.
212
(Robert Collins, #165304).
214
* Reconcile now shows progress bars. (Robert Collins, #159351)
216
* ``RemoteBranch`` was not initializing ``self._revision_id_to_revno_map``
217
properly. (John Arbash Meinel, #162486)
219
* Removing an already-removed file reports the file does not exist. (Daniel
222
* Rename on Windows is able to change filename case.
223
(Alexander Belchenko, #77740)
225
* Return error instead of a traceback for ``bzr log -r0``.
226
(Kent Gibson, #133751)
228
* Return error instead of a traceback when bzr is unable to create
229
symlink on some platforms (e.g. on Windows).
230
(Alexander Belchenko, workaround for #81689)
232
* Revert doesn't crash when restoring a single file from a deleted
233
directory. (Aaron Bentley)
235
* Stderr output via logging mechanism now goes through encoded wrapper
236
and no more uses utf-8, but terminal encoding instead. So all unicode
237
strings now should be readable in non-utf-8 terminal.
238
(Alexander Belchenko, #54173)
240
* The error message when ``move --after`` should be used makes how to do so
241
clearer. (Daniel Watkins, #85237)
243
* Unicode-safe output from ``bzr info``. The output will be encoded
244
using the terminal encoding and unrepresentable characters will be
245
replaced by '?'. (Lukáš Lalinský, #151844)
247
* Working trees are no longer created when pushing into a local no-trees
248
repo. (Daniel Watkins, #50582)
250
* Upgrade util/configobj to version 4.4.0.
251
(Vincent Ladeuil, #151208).
253
* Wrap medusa ftp test server as an FTPServer feature.
254
(Vincent Ladeuil, #157752)
258
* ``osutils.backup_file`` is deprecated. Actually it's not used in bzrlib
259
during very long time. (Alexander Belchenko)
261
* The return value of
262
``VersionedFile.iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` has been
263
changed. Previously it was an iterator of lines, now it is an iterator of
264
(line, version_id) tuples. This change has been made to aid reconcile and
265
fetch operations. (Robert Collins)
267
* ``bzrlib.repository.get_versioned_file_checker`` is now private.
270
* The Repository format registry default has been removed; it was previously
271
obsoleted by the bzrdir format default, which implies a default repository
277
* Added ``ContainerSerialiser`` and ``ContainerPushParser`` to
278
``bzrlib.pack``. These classes provide more convenient APIs for generating
279
and parsing containers from streams rather than from files. (Andrew
282
* New module ``lru_cache`` providing a cache for use by tasks that need
283
semi-random access to large amounts of data. (John A Meinel)
285
* InventoryEntry.diff is now deprecated. Please use diff.DiffTree instead.
295
* New uninstaller on Win32. (Alexander Belchenko)

bzr 0.92rc1 2007-10-29
299
======================
301
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
305
* ``bzr`` now returns exit code 4 if an internal error occurred, and
306
3 if a normal error occurred. (Martin Pool)
308
* ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently correct some
309
repository index errors that occured as a result of the Weave disk format.
310
Instead the ``reconcile`` command needs to be run to correct those
311
problems if they exist (and it has been able to fix most such problems
312
since bzr 0.8). Some new problems have been identified during this release
313
and you should run ``bzr check`` once on every repository to see if you
314
need to reconcile. If you cannot ``pull`` or ``merge`` from a remote
315
repository due to mismatched parent errors - a symptom of index errors -
316
you should simply take a full copy of that remote repository to a clean
317
directory outside any local repositories, then run reconcile on it, and
318
finally pull from it locally. (And naturally email the repositories owner
319
to ask them to upgrade and run reconcile).
324
* New ``knitpack-experimental`` repository format. This is interoperable with
325
the ``dirstate-tags`` format but uses a smarter storage design that greatly
326
speeds up many operations, both local and remote. This new format can be
327
used as an option to the ``init``, ``init-repository`` and ``upgrade``
328
commands. See http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/0.92/developers/knitpack.html
329
for further details. (Robert Collins)
331
* For users of bzr-svn (and those testing the prototype subtree support) that
332
wish to try packs, a new ``knitpack-subtree-experimental`` format has also
333
been added. This is interoperable with the ``dirstate-subtrees`` format.
336
* New ``reconfigure`` command. (Aaron Bentley)
338
* New ``revert --forget-merges`` command, which removes the record of a pending
339
merge without affecting the working tree contents. (Martin Pool)
341
* New ``bzr_remote_path`` configuration variable allows finer control of
342
remote bzr locations than BZR_REMOTE_PATH environment variable.
345
* New ``launchpad-login`` command to tell Bazaar your Launchpad
346
user ID. This can then be used by other functions of the
347
Launchpad plugin. (James Henstridge)
351
* Commit in quiet mode is now slightly faster as the information to
352
output is no longer calculated. (Ian Clatworthy)
354
* Commit no longer checks for new text keys during insertion when the
355
revision id was deterministically unique. (Robert Collins)
357
* Committing a change which is not a merge and does not change the number of
358
files in the tree is faster by utilising the data about whether files are
359
changed to determine if the tree is unchanged rather than recalculating
360
it at the end of the commit process. (Robert Collins)
362
* Inventory serialisation no longer double-sha's the content.
365
* Knit text reconstruction now avoids making copies of the lines list for
366
interim texts when building a single text. The new ``apply_delta`` method
367
on ``KnitContent`` aids this by allowing modification of the revision id
368
such objects represent. (Robert Collins)
370
* Pack indices are now partially parsed for specific key lookup using a
371
bisection approach. (Robert Collins)
373
* Partial commits are now approximately 40% faster by walking over the
374
unselected current tree more efficiently. (Robert Collins)
376
* XML inventory serialisation takes 20% less time while being stricter about
377
the contents. (Robert Collins)
379
* Graph ``heads()`` queries have been fixed to no longer access all history
380
unnecessarily. (Robert Collins)
384
* ``bzr+https://`` smart server across https now supported.
385
(John Ferlito, Martin Pool, #128456)
387
* Mutt is now a supported mail client; set ``mail_client=mutt`` in your
388
bazaar.conf and ``send`` will use mutt. (Keir Mierle)
390
* New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``merge`` command for cherrypicking
391
changes from one revision. (Alexander Belchenko, #141368)
393
* Show encodings, locale and list of plugins in the traceback message.
394
(Martin Pool, #63894)
396
* Experimental directory formats can now be marked with
397
``experimental = True`` during registration. (Ian Clatworthy)
401
* New *Bazaar in Five Minutes* guide. (Matthew Revell)
403
* The hooks reference documentation is now converted to html as expected.
408
* Connection error reporting for the smart server has been fixed to
409
display a user friendly message instead of a traceback.
410
(Ian Clatworthy, #115601)
412
* Make sure to use ``O_BINARY`` when opening files to check their
413
sha1sum. (Alexander Belchenko, John Arbash Meinel, #153493)
415
* Fix a problem with Win32 handling of the executable bit.
416
(John Arbash Meinel, #149113)
418
* ``bzr+ssh://`` and ``sftp://`` URLs that do not specify ports explicitly
419
no longer assume that means port 22. This allows people using OpenSSH to
420
override the default port in their ``~/.ssh/config`` if they wish. This
421
fixes a bug introduced in bzr 0.91. (Andrew Bennetts, #146715)
423
* Commands reporting exceptions can now be profiled and still have their
424
data correctly dumped to a file. For example, a ``bzr commit`` with
425
no changes still reports the operation as pointless but doing so no
426
longer throws away the profiling data if this command is run with
427
``--lsprof-file callgrind.out.ci`` say. (Ian Clatworthy)
429
* Fallback to ftp when paramiko is not installed and sftp can't be used for
430
``tests/commands`` so that the test suite is still usable without
432
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59150)
434
* Fix commit ordering in corner case. (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
436
* Fix long standing bug in partial commit when there are renames
437
left in tree. (Robert Collins, #140419)
439
* Fix selftest semi-random noise during http related tests.
440
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140614)
442
* Fix typo in ftp.py making the reconnection fail on temporary errors.
443
(Vincent Ladeuil, #154259)
445
* Fix failing test by comparing real paths to cover the case where the TMPDIR
446
contains a symbolic link.
447
(Vincent Ladeuil, #141382).
449
* Fix log against smart server branches that don't support tags.
450
(James Westby, #140615)
452
* Fix pycurl http implementation by defining error codes from
453
pycurl instead of relying on an old curl definition.
454
(Vincent Ladeuil, #147530)
456
* Fix 'unprintable error' message when displaying BzrCheckError and
457
some other exceptions on Python 2.5.
458
(Martin Pool, #144633)
460
* Fix ``Inventory.copy()`` and add test for it. (Jelmer Vernooij)
462
* Handles default value for ListOption in cmd_commit.
463
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140432)
465
* HttpServer and FtpServer need to be closed properly or a listening socket
467
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140055)
469
* Monitor the .bzr directory created in the top level test
470
directory to detect leaking tests.
471
(Vincent Ladeuil, #147986)
473
* The basename, not the full path, is now used when checking whether
474
the profiling dump file begins with ``callgrind.out`` or not. This
475
fixes a bug reported by Aaron Bentley on IRC. (Ian Clatworthy)
477
* Trivial fix for invoking command ``reconfigure`` without arguments.
480
* ``WorkingTree.rename_one`` will now raise an error if normalisation of the
481
new path causes bzr to be unable to access the file. (Robert Collins)
483
* Correctly detect a NoSuchFile when using a filezilla server. (Gary van der
488
* ``bzrlib.index.GraphIndex`` now requires a size parameter to the
489
constructor, for enabling bisection searches. (Robert Collins)
491
* ``CommitBuilder.record_entry_contents`` now requires the root entry of a
492
tree be supplied to it, previously failing to do so would trigger a
493
deprecation warning. (Robert Collins)
495
* ``KnitVersionedFile.add*`` will no longer cache added records even when
496
enable_cache() has been called - the caching feature is now exclusively for
497
reading existing data. (Robert Collins)
499
* ``ReadOnlyLockError`` is deprecated; ``LockFailed`` is usually more
500
appropriate. (Martin Pool)
502
* Removed ``bzrlib.transport.TransportLogger`` - please see the new
503
``trace+`` transport instead. (Robert Collins)
505
* Removed previously deprecated varargs interface to ``TestCase.run_bzr`` and
506
deprecated methods ``TestCase.capture`` and ``TestCase.run_bzr_captured``.
509
* Removed previous deprecated ``basis_knit`` parameter to the
510
``KnitVersionedFile`` constructor. (Robert Collins)
512
* Special purpose method ``TestCase.run_bzr_decode`` is moved to the test_non_ascii
516
* The class ``bzrlib.repofmt.knitrepo.KnitRepository3`` has been folded into
517
``KnitRepository`` by parameters to the constructor. (Robert Collins)
519
* The ``VersionedFile`` interface now allows content checks to be bypassed
520
by supplying check_content=False. This saves nearly 30% of the minimum
521
cost to store a version of a file. (Robert Collins)
523
* Tree's with bad state such as files with no length or sha will no longer
524
be silently accepted by the repository XML serialiser. To serialise
525
inventories without such data, pass working=True to write_inventory.
528
* ``VersionedFile.fix_parents`` has been removed as a harmful API.
529
``VersionedFile.join`` will no longer accept different parents on either
530
side of a join - it will either ignore them, or error, depending on the
531
implementation. See notes when upgrading for more information.
536
* ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.put_file`` now returns the number of bytes
537
put by the method call, to allow avoiding stat-after-write or
538
housekeeping in callers. (Robert Collins)
540
* ``bzrlib.xml_serializer.Serializer`` is now responsible for checking that
541
mandatory attributes are present on serialisation and deserialisation.
542
This fixes some holes in API usage and allows better separation between
543
physical storage and object serialisation. (Robert Collins)
545
* New class ``bzrlib.errors.InternalBzrError`` which is just a convenient
546
shorthand for deriving from BzrError and setting internal_error = True.
549
* New method ``bzrlib.mutabletree.update_to_one_parent_via_delta`` for
550
moving the state of a parent tree to a new version via a delta rather than
551
a complete replacement tree. (Robert Collins)
553
* New method ``bzrlib.osutils.minimum_path_selection`` useful for removing
554
duplication from user input, when a user mentions both a path and an item
555
contained within that path. (Robert Collins)
557
* New method ``bzrlib.repository.Repository.is_write_locked`` useful for
558
determining if a repository is write locked. (Robert Collins)
560
* New method on ``bzrlib.tree.Tree`` ``path_content_summary`` provides a
561
tuple containing the key information about a path for commit processing
562
to complete. (Robert Collins)
564
* New method on xml serialisers, write_inventory_to_lines, which matches the
565
API used by knits for adding content. (Robert Collins)
567
* New module ``bzrlib.bisect_multi`` with generic multiple-bisection-at-once
568
logic, currently only available for byte-based lookup
569
(``bisect_multi_bytes``). (Robert Collins)
571
* New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a byte string
572
and returns a gzipped version of the same. This is used to avoid a bunch
573
of api friction during adding of knit hunks. (Robert Collins)
575
* New parameter on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.readv``
576
``adjust_for_latency`` which changes readv from returning strictly the
577
requested data to inserted return larger ranges and in forward read order
578
to reduce the effect of network latency. (Robert Collins)
580
* New parameter yield_parents on ``Inventory.iter_entries_by_dir`` which
581
causes the parents of a selected id to be returned recursively, so all the
582
paths from the root down to each element of selected_file_ids are
583
returned. (Robert Collins)
585
* Knit joining has been enhanced to support plain to annotated conversion
586
and annotated to plain conversion. (Ian Clatworthy)
588
* The CommitBuilder method ``record_entry_contents`` now returns summary
589
information about the effect of the commit on the repository. This tuple
590
contains an inventory delta item if the entry changed from the basis, and a
591
boolean indicating whether a new file graph node was recorded.
594
* The python path used in the Makefile can now be overridden.
595
(Andrew Bennetts, Ian Clatworthy)
599
* New transport implementation ``trace+`` which is useful for testing,
600
logging activity taken to its _activity attribute. (Robert Collins)
602
* When running bzr commands within the test suite, internal exceptions are
603
not caught and reported in the usual way, but rather allowed to propagate
604
up and be visible to the test suite. A new API ``run_bzr_catch_user_errors``
605
makes this behavior available to other users.
608
* New method ``TestCase.call_catch_warnings`` for testing methods that
609
raises a Python warning. (Martin Pool)
617
* Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py install``
618
process if building of a C extension is not possible.
619
(Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
621
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
623
* Fix ''bzr info bzr://host/'' and other operations on ''bzr://' URLs with
624
an implicit port. We were incorrectly raising PathNotChild due to
625
inconsistent treatment of the ''_port'' attribute on the Transport object.
626
(Andrew Bennetts, #133965)
628
* Make RemoteRepository.sprout cope gracefully with servers that don't
629
support the ``Repository.tarball`` request.
633
bzr 0.91rc2 2007-09-11
634
======================
636
* Replaced incorrect tarball for previous release; a debug statement was left
640
bzr 0.91rc1 2007-09-11
641
======================
645
* The default branch and repository format has changed to
646
``dirstate-tags``, so tag commands are active by default.
647
This format is compatible with Bazaar 0.15 and later.
648
This incidentally fixes bug #126141.
651
* ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is no longer a global option. If present, it
652
must now appear after the command name. Scripts doing things like
653
``bzr -q missing`` need to be rewritten as ``bzr missing -q``.
658
* New option ``--author`` in ``bzr commit`` to specify the author of the
659
change, if it's different from the committer. ``bzr log`` and
660
``bzr annotate`` display the author instead of the committer.
663
* In addition to global options and command specific options, a set of
664
standard options are now supported. Standard options are legal for
665
all commands. The initial set of standard options are:
667
* ``--help`` or ``-h`` - display help message
668
* ``--verbose`` or ``-v`` - display additional information
669
* ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` - only output warnings and errors.
671
Unlike global options, standard options can be used in aliases and
672
may have command-specific help. (Ian Clatworthy)
674
* Verbosity level processing has now been unified. If ``--verbose``
675
or ``-v`` is specified on the command line multiple times, the
676
verbosity level is made positive the first time then increased.
677
If ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is specified on the command line
678
multiple times, the verbosity level is made negative the first
679
time then decreased. To get the default verbosity level of zero,
680
either specify none of the above , ``--no-verbose`` or ``--no-quiet``.
681
Note that most commands currently ignore the magnitude of the
682
verbosity level but do respect *quiet vs normal vs verbose* when
683
generating output. (Ian Clatworthy)
685
* ``Branch.hooks`` now supports ``pre_commit`` hook. The hook's signature
686
is documented in BranchHooks constructor. (Nam T. Nguyen, #102747)
688
* New ``Repository.stream_knit_data_for_revisions`` request added to the
689
network protocol for greatly reduced roundtrips when retrieving a set of
690
revisions. (Andrew Bennetts)
694
* ``bzr plugins`` now lists the version number for each plugin in square
695
brackets after the path. (Robert Collins, #125421)
697
* Pushing, pulling and branching branches with subtree references was not
698
copying the subtree weave, preventing the file graph from being accessed
699
and causing errors in commits in clones. (Robert Collins)
701
* Suppress warning "integer argument expected, got float" from Paramiko,
702
which sometimes caused false test failures. (Martin Pool)
704
* Fix bug in bundle 4 that could cause attempts to write data to wrong
705
versionedfile. (Aaron Bentley)
707
* Diffs generated using "diff -p" no longer break the patch parser.
710
* get_transport treats an empty possible_transports list the same as a non-
711
empty one. (Aaron Bentley)
713
* patch verification for merge directives is reactivated, and works with
714
CRLF and CR files. (Aaron Bentley)
716
* Accept ..\ as a path in revision specifiers. This fixes for example
717
"-r branch:..\other-branch" on Windows. (Lukáš Lalinský)
719
* ``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` may now contain trailing slashes.
720
(Blake Winton, #129299)
722
* man page no longer lists hidden options (#131667, Aaron Bentley)
724
* ``uncommit --help`` now explains the -r option adequately. (Daniel
727
* Error messages are now better formatted with parameters (such as
728
filenames) quoted when necessary. This avoids confusion when directory
729
names ending in a '.' at the end of messages were confused with a
730
full stop that may or not have been there. (Daniel Watkins, #129791)
732
* Fix ``status FILE -r X..Y``. (Lukáš Lalinský)
734
* If a particular command is an alias, ``help`` will show the alias
735
instead of claiming there is no help for said alias. (Daniel Watkins,
738
* TreeTransform-based operations, like pull, merge, revert, and branch,
739
now roll back if they encounter an error. (Aaron Bentley, #67699)
741
* ``bzr commit`` now exits cleanly if a character unsupported by the
742
current encoding is used in the commit message. (Daniel Watkins,
745
* bzr send uses default values for ranges when only half of an elipsis
746
is specified ("-r..5" or "-r5.."). (#61685, Aaron Bentley)
748
* Avoid trouble when Windows ssh calls itself 'plink' but no plink
749
binary is present. (Martin Albisetti, #107155)
751
* ``bzr remove`` should remove clean subtrees. Now it will remove (without
752
needing ``--force``) subtrees that contain no files with text changes or
753
modified files. With ``--force`` it removes the subtree regardless of
754
text changes or unknown files. Directories with renames in or out (but
755
not changed otherwise) will now be removed without needing ``--force``.
756
Unknown ignored files will be deleted without needing ``--force``.
757
(Marius Kruger, #111665)
759
* When two plugins conflict, the source of both the losing and now the
760
winning definition is shown. (Konstantin Mikhaylov, #5454)
762
* When committing to a branch, the location being committed to is
763
displayed. (Daniel Watkins, #52479)
765
* ``bzr --version`` takes care about encoding of stdout, especially
766
when output is redirected. (Alexander Belchenko, #131100)
768
* Prompt for an ftp password if none is provided.
769
(Vincent Ladeuil, #137044)
771
* Reuse bound branch associated transport to avoid multiple
773
(Vincent Ladeuil, #128076, #131396)
775
* Overwrite conflicting tags by ``push`` and ``pull`` if the
776
``--overwrite`` option is specified. (Lukáš Lalinský, #93947)
778
* In checkouts, tags are copied into the master branch when created,
779
changed or deleted, and are copied into the checkout when it is
780
updated. (Martin Pool, #93856, #93860)
782
* Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py install``
783
process if building of a C extension is not possible.
784
(Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
788
* Add the option "--show-diff" to the commit command in order to display
789
the diff during the commit log creation. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
791
* ``pull`` and ``merge`` are much faster at installing bundle format 4.
794
* ``pull -v`` no longer includes deltas, making it much faster.
797
* ``send`` now sends the directive as an attachment by default.
798
(Aaron Bentley, Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
800
* Documentation updates (Martin Albisetti)
802
* Help on debug flags is now included in ``help global-options``.
803
(Daniel Watkins, #124853)
805
* Parameters passed on the command line are checked to ensure they are
806
supported by the encoding in use. (Daniel Watkins)
808
* The compression used within the bzr repository has changed from zlib
809
level 9 to the zlib default level. This improves commit performance with
810
only a small increase in space used (and in some cases a reduction in
811
space). (Robert Collins)
813
* Initial commit no longer SHAs files twice and now reuses the path
814
rather than looking it up again, making it faster.
817
* New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``diff`` and ``status`` to show
818
changes in one revision. (Lukáš Lalinský)
820
* If versioned files match a given ignore pattern, a warning is now
821
given. (Daniel Watkins, #48623)
823
* ``bzr status`` now has -S as a short name for --short and -V as a
824
short name for --versioned. These have been added to assist users
825
migrating from Subversion: ``bzr status -SV`` is now like
826
``svn status -q``. (Daniel Watkins, #115990)
828
* Added C implementation of ``PatienceSequenceMatcher``, which is about
829
10x faster than the Python version. This speeds up commands that
830
need file diffing, such as ``bzr commit`` or ``bzr diff``.
833
* HACKING has been extended with a large section on core developer tasks.
836
* Add ``branches`` and ``standalone-trees`` as online help topics and
837
include them as Concepts within the User Reference.
838
(Paul Moore, Ian Clatworthy)
840
* ``check`` can detect versionedfile parent references that are
841
inconsistent with revision and inventory info, and ``reconcile`` can fix
842
them. These faulty references were generated by 0.8-era releases,
843
so repositories which were manipulated by old bzrs should be
844
checked, and possibly reconciled ASAP. (Aaron Bentley, Andrew Bennetts)
848
* ``Branch.append_revision`` is removed altogether; please use
849
``Branch.set_last_revision_info`` instead. (Martin Pool)
851
* CommitBuilder now advertises itself as requiring the root entry to be
852
supplied. This only affects foreign repository implementations which reuse
853
CommitBuilder directly and have changed record_entry_contents to require
854
that the root not be supplied. This should be precisely zero plugins
855
affected. (Robert Collins)
857
* The ``add_lines`` methods on ``VersionedFile`` implementations has changed
858
its return value to include the sha1 and length of the inserted text. This
859
allows the avoidance of double-sha1 calculations during commit.
862
* ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed. It was not called in the
863
previous release. (Martin Pool)
867
* Tests may now raise TestNotApplicable to indicate they shouldn't be
868
run in a particular scenario. (Martin Pool)
870
* New function multiply_tests_from_modules to give a simpler interface
871
to test parameterization. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
873
* ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed. It was not called in the
874
previous release. (Martin Pool)
876
* NULL_REVISION is returned to indicate the null revision, not None.
879
* Use UTF-8 encoded StringIO for log tests to avoid failures on
880
non-ASCII committer names. (Lukáš Lalinský)
884
* ``bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins`` has been deprecated in favour of
885
``bzrlib.plugin.plugins()`` which returns PlugIn objects that provide
886
useful functionality for determining the path of a plugin, its tests, and
887
its version information. (Robert Collins)
889
* Add the option user_encoding to the function 'show_diff_trees()'
890
in order to move the user encoding at the UI level. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
892
* Add the function make_commit_message_template_encoded() and the function
893
edit_commit_message_encoded() which handle encoded strings.
894
This is done in order to mix the commit messages (which is a unicode
895
string), and the diff which is a raw string. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
897
* CommitBuilder now defaults to using add_lines_with_ghosts, reducing
898
overhead on non-weave repositories which don't require all parents to be
899
present. (Robert Collins)
901
* Deprecated method ``find_previous_heads`` on
902
``bzrlib.inventory.InventoryEntry``. This has been superseded by the use
903
of ``parent_candidates`` and a separate heads check via the repository
904
API. (Robert Collins)
906
* New trace function ``mutter_callsite`` will print out a subset of the
907
stack to the log, which can be useful for gathering debug details.
910
* ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now tracks how many records have been
911
added via a public attribute records_written. (Robert Collins)
913
* New method ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.get_recommended_page_size``.
914
This provides a hint to users of transports as to the reasonable
915
minimum data to read. In principle this can take latency and
916
bandwidth into account on a per-connection basis, but for now it
917
just has hard coded values based on the url. (e.g. http:// has a large
918
page size, file:// has a small one.) (Robert Collins)
920
* New method on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport`` ``open_write_stream`` allows
921
incremental addition of data to a file without requiring that all the
922
data be buffered in memory. (Robert Collins)
924
* New methods on ``bzrlib.knit.KnitVersionedFile``:
925
``get_data_stream(versions)``, ``insert_data_stream(stream)`` and
926
``get_format_signature()``. These provide some infrastructure for
927
efficiently streaming the knit data for a set of versions over the smart
930
* Knits with no annotation cache still produce correct annotations.
933
* Three new methods have been added to ``bzrlib.trace``:
934
``set_verbosity_level``, ``get_verbosity_level`` and ``is_verbose``.
935
``set_verbosity_level`` expects a numeric value: negative for quiet,
936
zero for normal, positive for verbose. The size of the number can be
937
used to determine just how quiet or verbose the application should be.
938
The existing ``be_quiet`` and ``is_quiet`` routines have been
939
integrated into this new scheme. (Ian Clatworthy)
941
* Options can now be delcared with a ``custom_callback`` parameter. If
942
set, this routine is called after the option is processed. This feature
943
is now used by the standard options ``verbose`` and ``quiet`` so that
944
setting one implicitly resets the other. (Ian Clatworthy)
946
* Rather than declaring a new option from scratch in order to provide
947
custom help, a centrally registered option can be decorated using the
948
new ``bzrlib.Option.custom_help`` routine. In particular, this routine
949
is useful when declaring better help for the ``verbose`` and ``quiet``
950
standard options as the base definition of these is now more complex
951
than before thanks to their use of a custom callback. (Ian Clatworthy)
953
* Tree._iter_changes(specific_file=[]) now iterates through no files,
954
instead of iterating through all files. None is used to iterate through
955
all files. (Aaron Bentley)
957
* WorkingTree.revert() now accepts None to revert all files. The use of
958
[] to revert all files is deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)
966
* Documentation is now organized into multiple directories with a level
967
added for different languages or locales. Added the Mini Tutorial
968
and Quick Start Summary (en) documents from the Wiki, improving the
969
content and readability of the former. Formatted NEWS as Release Notes
970
complete with a Table of Conents, one heading per release. Moved the
971
Developer Guide into the main document catalog and provided a link
972
from the developer document catalog back to the main one.
973
(Ian Clatworthy, Sabin Iacob, Alexander Belchenko)
978
* The static convenience method ``BzrDir.create_repository``
979
is deprecated. Callers should instead create a ``BzrDir`` instance
980
and call ``create_repository`` on that. (Martin Pool)
983
bzr 0.90rc1 2007-08-14
984
======================
988
* ``bzr init`` should connect to the remote location one time only. We
989
have been connecting several times because we forget to pass around the
990
Transport object. This modifies ``BzrDir.create_branch_convenience``,
991
so that we can give it the Transport we already have.
992
(John Arbash Meinel, Vincent Ladeuil, #111702)
994
* Get rid of sftp connection cache (get rid of the FTP one too).
995
(Vincent Ladeuil, #43731)
997
* bzr branch {local|remote} remote don't try to create a working tree
999
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112173)
1001
* All identified multiple connections for a single bzr command have been
1002
fixed. See bzrlib/tests/commands directory.
1005
* ``bzr rm`` now does not insist on ``--force`` to delete files that
1006
have been renamed but not otherwise modified. (Marius Kruger,
1009
* ``bzr selftest --bench`` no longer emits deprecation warnings
1012
* ``bzr status`` now honours FILE parameters for conflict lists
1013
(Aaron Bentley, #127606)
1015
* ``bzr checkout`` now honours -r when reconstituting a working tree.
1016
It also honours -r 0. (Aaron Bentley, #127708)
1018
* ``bzr add *`` no more fails on Windows if working tree contains
1019
non-ascii file names. (Kuno Meyer, #127361)
1021
* allow ``easy_install bzr`` runs without fatal errors.
1022
(Alexander Belchenko, #125521)
1024
* Graph._filter_candidate_lca does not raise KeyError if a candidate
1025
is eliminated just before it would normally be examined. (Aaron Bentley)
1027
* SMTP connection failures produce a nice message, not a traceback.
1032
* Don't show "dots" progress indicators when run non-interactively, such
1033
as from cron. (Martin Pool)
1035
* ``info`` now formats locations more nicely and lists "submit" and
1036
"public" branches (Aaron Bentley)
1038
* New ``pack`` command that will trigger database compression within
1039
the repository (Robert Collins)
1041
* Implement ``_KnitIndex._load_data`` in a pyrex extension. The pyrex
1042
version is approximately 2-3x faster at parsing a ``.kndx`` file.
1043
Which yields a measurable improvement for commands which have to
1044
read from the repository, such as a 1s => 0.75s improvement in
1045
``bzr diff`` when there are changes to be shown. (John Arbash Meinel)
1047
* Merge is now faster. Depending on the scenario, it can be more than 2x
1048
faster. (Aaron Bentley)
1050
* Give a clearer warning, and allow ``python setup.py install`` to
1051
succeed even if pyrex is not available.
1052
(John Arbash Meinel)
1054
* ``DirState._read_dirblocks`` now has an optional Pyrex
1055
implementation. This improves the speed of any command that has to
1056
read the entire DirState. (``diff``, ``status``, etc, improve by
1058
``bisect_dirblocks`` has also been improved, which helps all
1059
``_get_entry`` type calls (whenever we are searching for a
1060
particular entry in the in-memory DirState).
1061
(John Arbash Meinel)
1063
* ``bzr pull`` and ``bzr push`` no longer do a complete walk of the
1064
branch revision history for ui display unless -v is supplied.
1067
* ``bzr log -rA..B`` output shifted to the left margin if the log only
1068
contains merge revisions. (Kent Gibson)
1070
* The ``plugins`` command is now public with improved help.
1073
* New bundle and merge directive formats are faster to generate, and
1075
* Annotate merge now works when there are local changes. (Aaron Bentley)
1077
* Commit now only shows the progress in terms of directories instead of
1078
entries. (Ian Clatworthy)
1080
* Fix ``KnitRepository.get_revision_graph`` to not request the graph 2
1081
times. This makes ``get_revision_graph`` 2x faster. (John Arbash
1084
* Fix ``VersionedFile.get_graph()`` to avoid using
1085
``set.difference_update(other)``, which has bad scaling when
1086
``other`` is large. This improves ``VF.get_graph([version_id])`` for
1087
a 12.5k graph from 2.9s down to 200ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
1089
* The ``--lsprof-file`` option now generates output for KCacheGrind if
1090
the file starts with ``callgrind.out``. This matches the default file
1091
filtering done by KCacheGrind's Open Dialog. (Ian Clatworthy)
1093
* Fix ``bzr update`` to avoid an unnecessary
1094
``branch.get_master_branch`` call, which avoids 1 extra connection
1095
to the remote server. (Partial fix for #128076, John Arbash Meinel)
1097
* Log errors from the smart server in the trace file, to make debugging
1098
test failures (and live failures!) easier. (Andrew Bennetts)
1100
* The HTML version of the man page has been superceded by a more
1101
comprehensive manual called the Bazaar User Reference. This manual
1102
is completed generated from the online help topics. As part of this
1103
change, limited reStructuredText is now explicitly supported in help
1104
topics and command help with 'unnatural' markup being removed prior
1105
to display by the online help or inclusion in the man page.
1108
* HTML documentation now use files extension ``*.html``
1109
(Alexander Belchenko)
1111
* The cache of ignore definitions is now cleared in WorkingTree.unlock()
1112
so that changes to .bzrignore aren't missed. (#129694, Daniel Watkins)
1114
* ``bzr selftest --strict`` fails if there are any missing features or
1115
expected test failures. (Daniel Watkins, #111914)
1117
* Link to registration survey added to README. (Ian Clatworthy)
1119
* Windows standalone installer show link to registration survey
1120
when installation finished. (Alexander Belchenko)
1124
* Deprecated dictionary ``bzrlib.option.SHORT_OPTIONS`` removed.
1125
Options are now required to provide a help string and it must
1126
comply with the style guide by being one or more sentences with an
1127
initial capital and final period. (Martin Pool)
1129
* KnitIndex.get_parents now returns tuples. (Robert Collins)
1131
* Ancient unused ``Repository.text_store`` attribute has been removed.
1134
* The ``bzrlib.pack`` interface has changed to use tuples of bytestrings
1135
rather than just bytestrings, making it easier to represent multiple
1136
element names. As this interface was not used by any internal facilities
1137
since it was introduced in 0.18 no API compatibility is being preserved.
1138
The serialised form of these packs is identical with 0.18 when a single
1139
element tuple is in use. (Robert Collins)
1143
* merge now uses ``iter_changes`` to calculate changes, which makes room for
1144
future performance increases. It is also more consistent with other
1145
operations that perform comparisons, and reduces reliance on
1146
Tree.inventory. (Aaron Bentley)
1148
* Refactoring of transport classes connected to a remote server.
1149
ConnectedTransport is a new class that serves as a basis for all
1150
transports needing to connect to a remote server. transport.split_url
1151
have been deprecated, use the static method on the object instead. URL
1152
tests have been refactored too.
1155
* Better connection sharing for ConnectedTransport objects.
1156
transport.get_transport() now accepts a 'possible_transports' parameter.
1157
If a newly requested transport can share a connection with one of the
1161
* Most functions now accept ``bzrlib.revision.NULL_REVISION`` to indicate
1162
the null revision, and consider using ``None`` for this purpose
1163
deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)
1165
* New ``index`` module with abstract index functionality. This will be
1166
used during the planned changes in the repository layer. Currently the
1167
index layer provides a graph aware immutable index, a builder for the
1168
same index type to allow creating them, and finally a composer for
1169
such indices to allow the use of many indices in a single query. The
1170
index performance is not optimised, however the API is stable to allow
1171
development on top of the index. (Robert Collins)
1173
* ``bzrlib.dirstate.cmp_by_dirs`` can be used to compare two paths by
1174
their directory sections. This is equivalent to comparing
1175
``path.split('/')``, only without having to split the paths.
1176
This has a Pyrex implementation available.
1177
(John Arbash Meinel)
1179
* New transport decorator 'unlistable+' which disables the list_dir
1180
functionality for testing.
1182
* Deprecated ``change_entry`` in transform.py. (Ian Clatworthy)
1184
* RevisionTree.get_weave is now deprecated. Tree.plan_merge is now used
1185
for performing annotate-merge. (Aaron Bentley)
1187
* New EmailMessage class to create email messages. (Adeodato Simó)
1189
* Unused functions on the private interface KnitIndex have been removed.
1192
* New ``knit.KnitGraphIndex`` which provides a ``KnitIndex`` layered on top
1193
of a ``index.GraphIndex``. (Robert Collins)
1195
* New ``knit.KnitVersionedFile.iter_parents`` method that allows querying
1196
the parents of many knit nodes at once, reducing round trips to the
1197
underlying index. (Robert Collins)
1199
* Graph now has an is_ancestor method, various bits use it.
1202
* The ``-Dhpss`` flag now includes timing information. As well as
1203
logging when a new connection is opened. (John Arbash Meinel)
1205
* ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now returns an offset, length tuple to
1206
callers when inserting data, allowing generation of readv style access
1207
during pack creation, without needing a separate pass across the output
1208
pack to gather such details. (Robert Collins)
1210
* ``bzrlib.pack.make_readv_reader`` allows readv based access to pack
1211
files that are stored on a transport. (Robert Collins)
1213
* New ``Repository.has_same_location`` method that reports if two
1214
repository objects refer to the same repository (although with some risk
1215
of false negatives). (Andrew Bennetts)
1217
* InterTree.compare now passes require_versioned on correctly.
1220
* New methods on Repository - ``start_write_group``,
1221
``commit_write_group``, ``abort_write_group`` and ``is_in_write_group`` -
1222
which provide a clean hook point for transactional Repositories - ones
1223
where all the data for a fetch or commit needs to be made atomically
1224
available in one step. This allows the write lock to remain while making
1225
a series of data insertions. (e.g. data conversion). (Robert Collins)
1227
* In ``bzrlib.knit`` the internal interface has been altered to use
1228
3-tuples (index, pos, length) rather than two-tuples (pos, length) to
1229
describe where data in a knit is, allowing knits to be split into
1230
many files. (Robert Collins)
1232
* ``bzrlib.knit._KnitData`` split into cache management and physical access
1233
with two access classes - ``_PackAccess`` and ``_KnitAccess`` defined.
1234
The former provides access into a .pack file, and the latter provides the
1235
current production repository form of .knit files. (Robert Collins)
1239
* Remove selftest ``--clean-output``, ``--numbered-dirs`` and
1240
``--keep-output`` options, which are obsolete now that tests
1241
are done within directories in $TMPDIR. (Martin Pool)
1243
* The SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable is now reset to avoid
1244
interaction with any running ssh agents. (Jelmer Vernooij, #125955)
1246
* run_bzr_subprocess handles parameters the same way as run_bzr:
1247
either a string or a list of strings should be passed as the first
1248
parameter. Varargs-style parameters are deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)
1252
====================
1256
* Fix 'bzr add' crash under Win32 (Kuno Meyer)
1259
bzr 0.18rc1 2007-07-10
1260
=======================
1264
* Do not suppress pipe errors, etc. in non-display commands
1265
(Alexander Belchenko, #87178)
1267
* Display a useful error message when the user requests to annotate
1268
a file that is not present in the specified revision.
1269
(James Westby, #122656)
1271
* Commands that use status flags now have a reference to 'help
1272
status-flags'. (Daniel Watkins, #113436)
1274
* Work around python-2.4.1 inhability to correctly parse the
1275
authentication header.
1276
(Vincent Ladeuil, #121889)
1278
* Use exact encoding for merge directives. (Adeodato Simó, #120591)
1280
* Fix tempfile permissions error in smart server tar bundling under
1281
Windows. (Martin _, #119330)
1283
* Fix detection of directory entries in the inventory. (James Westby)
1285
* Fix handling of http code 400: Bad Request When issuing too many ranges.
1286
(Vincent Ladeuil, #115209)
1288
* Issue a CONNECT request when connecting to an https server
1289
via a proxy to enable SSL tunneling.
1290
(Vincent Ladeuil, #120678)
1292
* Fix ``bzr log -r`` to support selecting merge revisions, both
1293
individually and as part of revision ranges.
1294
(Kent Gibson, #4663)
1296
* Don't leave cruft behind when failing to acquire a lockdir.
1297
(Martin Pool, #109169)
1299
* Don't use the '-f' strace option during tests.
1300
(Vincent Ladeuil, #102019).
1302
* Warn when setting ``push_location`` to a value that will be masked by
1303
locations.conf. (Aaron Bentley, #122286)
1305
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
1307
* Make annotate behave in a non-ASCII world (Adeodato Simó).
1311
* The --lsprof-file option now dumps a text rendering of the profiling
1312
information if the filename ends in ".txt". It will also convert the
1313
profiling information to a format suitable for KCacheGrind if the
1314
output filename ends in ".callgrind". Fixes to the lsprofcalltree
1315
conversion process by Jean Paul Calderone and Itamar were also merged.
1316
See http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree. (Ian Clatworthy)
1318
* ``info`` now defaults to non-verbose mode, displaying only paths and
1319
abbreviated format info. ``info -v`` displays all the information
1320
formerly displayed by ``info``. (Aaron Bentley, Adeodato Simó)
1322
* ``bzr missing`` now has better option names ``--this`` and ``--other``.
1325
* The internal ``weave-list`` command has become ``versionedfile-list``,
1326
and now lists knits as well as weaves. (Aaron Bentley)
1328
* Automatic merge base selection uses a faster algorithm that chooses
1329
better bases in criss-cross merge situations (Aaron Bentley)
1331
* Progress reporting in ``commit`` has been improved. The various logical
1332
stages are now reported on as follows, namely:
1334
* Collecting changes [Entry x/y] - Stage n/m
1335
* Saving data locally - Stage n/m
1336
* Uploading data to master branch - Stage n/m
1337
* Updating the working tree - Stage n/m
1338
* Running post commit hooks - Stage n/m
1340
If there is no master branch, the 3rd stage is omitted and the total
1341
number of stages is adjusted accordingly.
1343
Each hook that is run after commit is listed with a name (as hooks
1344
can be slow it is useful feedback).
1345
(Ian Clatworthy, Robert Collins)
1347
* Various operations that are now faster due to avoiding unnecessary
1348
topological sorts. (Aaron Bentley)
1350
* Make merge directives robust against broken bundles. (Aaron Bentley)
1352
* The lsprof filename note is emitted via trace.note(), not standard
1353
output. (Aaron Bentley)
1355
* ``bzrlib`` now exports explicit API compatibility information to assist
1356
library users and plugins. See the ``bzrlib.api`` module for details.
1359
* Remove unnecessary lock probes when acquiring a lockdir.
1362
* ``bzr --version`` now shows the location of the bzr log file, which
1363
is especially useful on Windows. (Martin Pool)
1365
* -D now supports hooks to get debug tracing of hooks (though its currently
1366
minimal in nature). (Robert Collins)
1368
* Long log format reports deltas on merge revisions.
1369
(John Arbash Meinel, Kent Gibson)
1371
* Make initial push over ftp more resilient. (John Arbash Meinel)
1373
* Print a summary of changes for update just like pull does.
1374
(Daniel Watkins, #113990)
1376
* Add a -Dhpss option to trace smart protocol requests and responses.
1381
* Testing cleanups -
1382
``bzrlib.repository.RepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
1383
to ``bzrlib.tests.repository_implementations``;
1384
``bzrlib.repository.InterRepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
1385
to ``bzrlib.tests.interrepository_implementations``;
1386
``bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1387
``bzrlib.tests.test_transport_implementations``.
1388
``bzrlib.branch.BranchTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1389
``bzrlib.tests.branch_implementations``.
1390
``bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1391
``bzrlib.tests.bzrdir_implementations``.
1392
``bzrlib.versionedfile.InterVersionedFileTestProviderAdapter`` has moved
1393
to ``bzrlib.tests.interversionedfile_implementations``.
1394
``bzrlib.store.revision.RevisionStoreTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1395
``bzrlib.tests.revisionstore_implementations``.
1396
``bzrlib.workingtree.WorkingTreeTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1397
``bzrlib.tests.workingtree_implementations``.
1398
These changes are an API break in the testing infrastructure only.
1401
* Relocate TestCaseWithRepository to be more central. (Robert Collins)
1403
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` will no longer perform glob expansion on
1404
win32. Callers of the function should do this and use the new
1405
``MutableTree.smart_add`` method instead. (Robert Collins)
1407
* ``bzrlib.add.glob_expand_for_win32`` is now
1408
``bzrlib.win32utils.glob_expand``. (Robert Collins)
1410
* ``bzrlib.add.FastPath`` is now private and moved to
1411
``bzrlib.mutabletree._FastPath``. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1413
* ``LockDir.wait`` removed. (Martin Pool)
1415
* The ``SmartServer`` hooks API has changed for the ``server_started`` and
1416
``server_stopped`` hooks. The first parameter is now an iterable of
1417
backing URLs rather than a single URL. This is to reflect that many
1418
URLs may map to the external URL of the server. E.g. the server interally
1419
may have a chrooted URL but also the local file:// URL will be at the
1420
same location. (Robert Collins)
1424
* New SMTPConnection class to unify email handling. (Adeodato Simó)
1426
* Fix documentation of BzrError. (Adeodato Simó)
1428
* Make BzrBadParameter an internal error. (Adeodato Simó)
1430
* Remove use of 'assert False' to raise an exception unconditionally.
1433
* Give a cleaner error when failing to decode knit index entry.
1436
* TreeConfig would mistakenly search the top level when asked for options
1437
from a section. It now respects the section argument and only
1438
searches the specified section. (James Westby)
1440
* Improve ``make api-docs`` output. (John Arbash Meinel)
1442
* Use os.lstat rather than os.stat for osutils.make_readonly and
1443
osutils.make_writeable. This makes the difftools plugin more
1444
robust when dangling symlinks are found. (Elliot Murphy)
1446
* New ``-Dlock`` option to log (to ~/.bzr.log) information on when
1447
lockdirs are taken or released. (Martin Pool)
1449
* ``bzrlib`` Hooks are now nameable using ``Hooks.name_hook``. This
1450
allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current hook can
1451
be displayed. (Robert Collins)
1453
* ``Transport.get`` has had its interface made more clear for ease of use.
1454
Retrieval of a directory must now fail with either 'PathError' at open
1455
time, or raise 'ReadError' on a read. (Robert Collins)
1457
* New method ``_maybe_expand_globs`` on the ``Command`` class for
1458
dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32 platform. This
1459
was moved from ``bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list``. (Robert Collins)
1461
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add`` and ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` are now
1462
deprecated in favour of ``MutableTree.smart_add``. (Robert Collins,
1465
* New method ``external_url`` on Transport for obtaining the url to
1466
hand to external processes. (Robert Collins)
1468
* Teach windows installers to build pyrex/C extensions.
1469
(Alexander Belchenko)
1473
* Removed the ``--keep-output`` option from selftest and clean up test
1474
directories as they're used. This reduces the IO load from
1475
running the test suite and cuts the time by about half.
1476
(Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
1478
* Add scenarios as a public attribute on the TestAdapter classes to allow
1479
modification of the generated scenarios before adaption and easier
1480
testing. (Robert Collins)
1482
* New testing support class ``TestScenarioApplier`` which multiplies
1483
out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios. (RobertCollins)
1485
* Setting ``repository_to_test_repository`` on a repository_implementations
1486
test will cause it to be called during repository creation, allowing the
1487
testing of repository classes which are not based around the Format
1488
concept. For example a repository adapter can be tested in this manner,
1489
by altering the repository scenarios to include a scenario that sets this
1490
attribute during the test parameterisation in
1491
``bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations``. (Robert Collins)
1493
* Clean up many of the APIs for blackbox testing of Bazaar. The standard
1494
interface is now self.run_bzr. The command to run can be passed as
1495
either a list of parameters, a string containing the command line, or
1496
(deprecated) varargs parameters. (Martin Pool)
1498
* The base TestCase now isolates tests from -D parameters by clearing
1499
``debug.debug_flags`` and restores it afterwards. (Robert Collins)
1501
* Add a relpath parameter to get_transport methods in test framework to
1502
avoid useless cloning.
1503
(Vincent Ladeuil, #110448)
1507
====================
1511
* Fix crash of commit due to wrong lookup of filesystem encoding.
1512
(Colin Watson, #120647)
1514
* Revert logging just to stderr in commit as broke unicode filenames.
1515
(Aaron Bentley, Ian Clatworthy, #120930)
1518
bzr 0.17rc1 2007-06-12
1519
=======================
1521
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1523
* The kind() and is_executable() APIs on the WorkingTree interface no
1524
longer implicitly (read) locks and unlocks the tree. This *might*
1525
impact some plug-ins and tools using this part of the API. If you find
1526
an issue that may be caused by this change, please let us know,
1527
particularly the plug-in/tool maintainer. If encountered, the API
1528
fix is to surround kind() and is_executable() calls with lock_read()
1529
and unlock() like so::
1531
work_tree.lock_read()
1533
kind = work_tree.kind(...)
1538
* Rework of LogFormatter API to provide beginning/end of log hooks and to
1539
encapsulate the details of the revision to be logged in a LogRevision
1541
In long log formats, merge revision ids are only shown when --show-ids
1542
is specified, and are labelled "revision-id:", as per mainline
1543
revisions, instead of "merged:". (Kent Gibson)
1545
* New ``BranchBuilder`` API which allows the construction of particular
1546
histories quickly. Useful for testing and potentially other applications
1547
too. (Robert Collins)
1551
* There are two new help topics, working-trees and repositories that
1552
attempt to explain these concepts. (James Westby, John Arbash Meinel,
1555
* Added ``bzr log --limit`` to report a limited number of revisions.
1556
(Kent Gibson, #3659)
1558
* Revert does not try to preserve file contents that were originally
1559
produced by reverting to a historical revision. (Aaron Bentley)
1561
* ``bzr log --short`` now includes ``[merge]`` for revisions which
1562
have more than one parent. This is a small improvement to help
1563
understanding what changes have occurred
1564
(John Arbash Meinel, #83887)
1566
* TreeTransform avoids many renames when contructing large trees,
1567
improving speed. 3.25x speedups have been observed for construction of
1568
kernel-sized-trees, and checkouts are 1.28x faster. (Aaron Bentley)
1570
* Commit on large trees is now faster. In my environment, a commit of
1571
a small change to the Mozilla tree (55k files) has dropped from
1572
66 seconds to 32 seconds. For a small tree of 600 files, commit of a
1573
small change is 33% faster. (Ian Clatworthy)
1575
* New --create-prefix option to bzr init, like for push. (Daniel Watkins,
1580
* ``bzr push`` should only connect to the remote location one time.
1581
We have been connecting 3 times because we forget to pass around
1582
the Transport object. This adds ``BzrDir.clone_on_transport()``, so
1583
that we can pass in the Transport that we already have.
1584
(John Arbash Meinel, #75721)
1586
* ``DirState.set_state_from_inventory()`` needs to properly order
1587
based on split paths, not just string paths.
1588
(John Arbash Meinel, #115947)
1590
* Let TestUIFactoy encode the password prompt with its own stdout.
1591
(Vincent Ladeuil, #110204)
1593
* pycurl should take use the range header that takes the range hint
1595
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112719)
1597
* WorkingTree4.get_file_sha1 no longer raises an exception when invoked
1598
on a missing file. (Aaron Bentley, #118186)
1600
* WorkingTree.remove works correctly with tree references, and when pwd is
1601
not the tree root. (Aaron Bentley)
1603
* Merge no longer fails when a file is renamed in one tree and deleted
1604
in the other. (Aaron Bentley, #110279)
1606
* ``revision-info`` now accepts dotted revnos, doesn't require a tree,
1607
and defaults to the last revision (Matthew Fuller, #90048)
1609
* Tests no longer fail when BZR_REMOTE_PATH is set in the environment.
1610
(Daniel Watkins, #111958)
1612
* ``bzr branch -r revid:foo`` can be used to branch any revision in
1613
your repository. (Previously Branch6 only supported revisions in your
1614
mainline). (John Arbash Meinel, #115343)
1617
====================
1621
* Handle when you have 2 directories with similar names, but one has a
1622
hyphen. (``'abc'`` versus ``'abc-2'``). The WT4._iter_changes
1623
iterator was using direct comparison and ``'abc/a'`` sorts after
1624
``'abc-2'``, but ``('abc', 'a')`` sorts before ``('abc-2',)``.
1625
(John Arbash Meinel, #111227)
1627
* Handle when someone renames a file on disk without telling bzr.
1628
Previously we would report the first file as missing, but not show
1629
the new unknown file. (John Arbash Meinel, #111288)
1631
* Avoid error when running hooks after pulling into or pushing from
1632
a branch bound to a smartserver branch. (Martin Pool, #111968)
1636
* Move developer documentation to doc/developers/. This reduces clutter in
1637
the root of the source tree and allows HACKING to be split into multiple
1638
files. (Robert Collins, Alexander Belchenko)
1640
* Clean up the ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes()`` internal loops as well as
1641
``DirState.update_entry()``. This optimizes the core logic for ``bzr
1642
diff`` and ``bzr status`` significantly improving the speed of
1643
both. (John Arbash Meinel)
1645
bzr 0.16rc2 2007-04-30
1646
=======================
1650
* Handle the case when you delete a file, and then rename another file
1651
on top of it. Also handle the case of ``bzr rm --keep foo``. ``bzr
1652
status`` should show the removed file and an unknown file in its
1653
place. (John Arbash Meinel, #109993)
1655
* Bundles properly read and write revision properties that have an
1656
empty value. And when the value is not ASCII.
1657
(John Arbash Meinel, #109613)
1659
* Fix the bzr commit message to be in text mode.
1660
(Alexander Belchenko, #110901)
1662
* Also handle when you rename a file and create a file where it used
1663
to be. (John Arbash Meinel, #110256)
1665
* ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes`` should not descend into unversioned
1666
directories. (John Arbash Meinel, #110399)
1668
bzr 0.16rc1 2007-04-26
1669
=======================
1671
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1673
* ``bzr remove`` and ``bzr rm`` will now remove the working file, if
1674
it could be recovered again.
1675
This has been done for consistency with svn and the unix rm command.
1676
The old ``remove`` behaviour has been retained in the new option
1677
``bzr remove --keep``, which will just stop versioning the file,
1679
``bzr remove --force`` have been added which will always delete the
1681
``bzr remove`` is also more verbose.
1682
(Marius Kruger, #82602)
1686
* Merge directives can now be supplied as input to `merge` and `pull`,
1687
like bundles can. (Aaron Bentley)
1689
* Sending the SIGQUIT signal to bzr, which can be done on Unix by
1690
pressing Control-Backslash, drops bzr into a debugger. Type ``'c'``
1691
to continue. This can be disabled by setting the environment variable
1692
``BZR_SIGQUIT_PDB=0``. (Martin Pool)
1694
* selftest now supports --list-only to list tests instead of running
1695
them. (Ian Clatworthy)
1697
* selftest now supports --exclude PATTERN (or -x PATTERN) to exclude
1698
tests with names that match that regular expression.
1699
(Ian Clatworthy, #102679)
1701
* selftest now supports --randomize SEED to run tests in a random order.
1702
SEED is typically the value 'now' meaning 'use the current time'.
1703
(Ian Clatworthy, #102686)
1705
* New option ``--fixes`` to commit, which stores bug fixing annotations as
1706
revision properties. Built-in support for Launchpad, Debian, Trac and
1707
Bugzilla bug trackers. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge, Robert Collins)
1709
* New API, ``bzrlib.bugtracker.tracker_registry``, for adding support for
1710
other bug trackers to ``fixes``. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge,
1713
* ``selftest`` has new short options ``-f`` and ``-1``. (Martin
1716
* ``bzrlib.tsort.MergeSorter`` optimizations. Change the inner loop
1717
into using local variables instead of going through ``self._var``.
1718
Improves the time to ``merge_sort`` a 10k revision graph by
1719
approximately 40% (~700->400ms). (John Arbash Meinel)
1721
* ``make docs`` now creates a man page at ``man1/bzr.1`` fixing bug 107388.
1724
* ``bzr help`` now provides cross references to other help topics using
1725
the _see_also facility on command classes. Likewise the bzr_man
1726
documentation, and the bzr.1 man page also include this information.
1729
* Tags are now included in logs, that use the long log formatter.
1730
(Erik Bågfors, Alexander Belchenko)
1732
* ``bzr help`` provides a clearer message when a help topic cannot be
1733
found. (Robert Collins, #107656)
1735
* ``bzr help`` now accepts optional prefixes for command help. The help
1736
for all commands can now be found at ``bzr help commands/COMMANDNAME``
1737
as well as ``bzr help COMMANDNAME`` (which only works for commands
1738
where the name is not the same as a more general help topic).
1741
* ``bzr help PLUGINNAME`` will now return the module docstring from the
1742
plugin PLUGINNAME. (Robert Collins, #50408)
1744
* New help topic ``urlspec`` which lists the availables transports.
1745
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
1747
* doc/server.txt updated to document the default bzr:// port
1748
and also update the blurb about the hpss' current status.
1749
(Robert Collins, #107125).
1751
* ``bzr serve`` now listens on interface 0.0.0.0 by default, making it
1752
serve out to the local LAN (and anyone in the world that can reach the
1753
machine running ``bzr serve``. (Robert Collins, #98918)
1755
* A new smart server protocol version has been added. It prefixes requests
1756
and responses with an explicit version identifier so that future protocol
1757
revisions can be dealt with gracefully. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
1759
* The bzr protocol version 2 indicates success or failure in every response
1760
without depending on particular commands encoding that consistently,
1761
allowing future client refactorings to be much more robust about error
1762
handling. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool, Andrew Bennetts)
1764
* The smart protocol over HTTP client has been changed to always post to the
1765
same ``.bzr/smart`` URL under the original location when it can. This allows
1766
HTTP servers to only have to pass URLs ending in .bzr/smart to the smart
1767
server handler, and not arbitrary ``.bzr/*/smart`` URLs. (Andrew Bennetts)
1769
* digest authentication is now supported for proxies and HTTP by the urllib
1770
based http implementation. Tested against Apache 2.0.55 and Squid
1771
2.6.5. Basic and digest authentication are handled coherently for HTTP
1772
and proxy: if the user is provided in the url (bzr command line for HTTP,
1773
proxy environment variables for proxies), the password is prompted for
1774
(only once). If the password is provided, it is taken into account. Once
1775
the first authentication is successful, all further authentication
1776
roundtrips are avoided by preventively setting the right authentication
1782
* bzrlib API compatability with 0.8 has been dropped, cleaning up some
1783
code paths. (Robert Collins)
1785
* Change the format of chroot urls so that they can be safely manipulated
1786
by generic url utilities without causing the resulting urls to have
1787
escaped the chroot. A side effect of this is that creating a chroot
1788
requires an explicit action using a ChrootServer.
1789
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
1791
* Deprecate ``Branch.get_root_id()`` because branches don't have root ids,
1792
rather than fixing bug #96847. (Aaron Bentley)
1794
* ``WorkingTree.apply_inventory_delta`` provides a better alternative to
1795
``WorkingTree._write_inventory``. (Aaron Bentley)
1797
* Convenience method ``TestCase.expectFailure`` ensures that known failures
1798
do not silently pass. (Aaron Bentley)
1800
* ``Transport.local_abspath`` now raises ``NotLocalUrl`` rather than
1801
``TransportNotPossible``. (Martin Pool, Ian Clatworthy)
1803
* New SmartServer hooks facility. There are two initial hooks documented
1804
in ``bzrlib.transport.smart.SmartServerHooks``. The two initial hooks allow
1805
plugins to execute code upon server startup and shutdown.
1808
* SmartServer in standalone mode will now close its listening socket
1809
when it stops, rather than waiting for garbage collection. This primarily
1810
fixes test suite hangs when a test tries to connect to a shutdown server.
1811
It may also help improve behaviour when dealing with a server running
1812
on a specific port (rather than dynamically assigned ports).
1815
* Move most SmartServer code into a new package, bzrlib/smart.
1816
bzrlib/transport/remote.py contains just the Transport classes that used
1817
to be in bzrlib/transport/smart.py. (Andrew Bennetts)
1819
* urllib http implementation avoid roundtrips associated with
1820
401 (and 407) errors once the authentication succeeds.
1823
* urlib http now supports querying the user for a proxy password if
1824
needed. Realm is shown in the prompt for both HTTP and proxy
1825
authentication when the user is required to type a password.
1828
* Renamed SmartTransport (and subclasses like SmartTCPTransport) to
1829
RemoteTransport (and subclasses to RemoteTCPTransport, etc). This is more
1830
consistent with its new home in ``bzrlib/transport/remote.py``, and because
1831
it's not really a "smart" transport, just one that does file operations
1832
via remote procedure calls. (Andrew Bennetts)
1834
* The ``lock_write`` method of ``LockableFiles``, ``Repository`` and
1835
``Branch`` now accept a ``token`` keyword argument, so that separate
1836
instances of those objects can share a lock if it has the right token.
1837
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
1839
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on ``BzrDir`` allows the detection of
1840
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
1842
* The Repository API ``make_working_trees`` is now permitted to return
1843
False when ``set_make_working_trees`` is not implemented - previously
1844
an unimplemented ``set_make_working_trees`` implied the result True
1845
from ``make_working_trees``. This has been changed to accomodate the
1846
smart server, where it does not make sense (at this point) to ever
1847
make working trees by default. (Robert Collins)
1849
* Command objects can now declare related help topics by having _see_also
1850
set to a list of related topic. (Robert Collins)
1852
* ``bzrlib.help`` now delegates to the Command class for Command specific
1853
help. (Robert Collins)
1855
* New class ``TransportListRegistry``, derived from the Registry class, which
1856
simplifies tracking the available Transports. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
1858
* New function ``Branch.get_revision_id_to_revno_map`` which will
1859
return a dictionary mapping revision ids to dotted revnos. Since
1860
dotted revnos are defined in the context of the branch tip, it makes
1861
sense to generate them from a ``Branch`` object.
1862
(John Arbash Meinel)
1864
* Fix the 'Unprintable error' message display to use the repr of the
1865
exception that prevented printing the error because the str value
1866
for it is often not useful in debugging (e.g. KeyError('foo') has a
1867
str() of 'foo' but a repr of 'KeyError('foo')' which is much more
1868
useful. (Robert Collins)
1870
* ``urlutils.normalize_url`` now unescapes unreserved characters, such as "~".
1875
* Don't fail bundle selftest if email has 'two' embedded.
1876
(Ian Clatworthy, #98510)
1878
* Remove ``--verbose`` from ``bzr bundle``. It didn't work anyway.
1879
(Robert Widhopf-Fenk, #98591)
1881
* Remove ``--basis`` from the checkout/branch commands - it didn't work
1882
properly and is no longer beneficial.
1883
(Robert Collins, #53675, #43486)
1885
* Don't produce encoding error when adding duplicate files.
1888
* Fix ``bzr log <file>`` so it only logs the revisions that changed
1889
the file, and does it faster.
1890
(Kent Gibson, John Arbash Meinel, #51980, #69477)
1892
* Fix ``InterDirstateTre._iter_changes`` to handle when we come across
1893
an empty versioned directory, which now has files in it.
1894
(John Arbash Meinel, #104257)
1896
* Teach ``common_ancestor`` to shortcut when the tip of one branch is
1897
inside the ancestry of the other. Saves a lot of graph processing
1898
(with an ancestry of 16k revisions, ``bzr merge ../already-merged``
1899
changes from 2m10s to 13s). (John Arbash Meinel, #103757)
1901
* Fix ``show_diff_trees`` to handle the case when a file is modified,
1902
and the containing directory is renamed. (The file path is different
1903
in this versus base, but it isn't marked as a rename).
1904
(John Arbash Meinel, #103870)
1906
* FTP now works even when the FTP server does not support atomic rename.
1907
(Aaron Bentley, #89436)
1909
* Correct handling in bundles and merge directives of timezones with
1910
that are not an integer number of hours offset from UTC. Always
1911
represent the epoch time in UTC to avoid problems with formatting
1912
earlier times on win32. (Martin Pool, Alexander Belchenko, John
1915
* Typo in the help for ``register-branch`` fixed. (Robert Collins, #96770)
1917
* "dirstate" and "dirstate-tags" formats now produce branches compatible
1918
with old versions of bzr. (Aaron Bentley, #107168))
1920
* Handle moving a directory when children have been added, removed,
1921
and renamed. (John Arbash Meinel, #105479)
1923
* Don't preventively use basic authentication for proxy before receiving a
1924
407 error. Otherwise people willing to use other authentication schemes
1925
may expose their password in the clear (or nearly). This add one
1926
roundtrip in case basic authentication should be used, but plug the
1930
* Handle http and proxy digest authentication.
1931
(Vincent Ladeuil, #94034).
1935
* Added ``bzrlib.strace.strace`` which will strace a single callable and
1936
return a StraceResult object which contains just the syscalls involved
1937
in running it. (Robert Collins)
1939
* New test method ``reduceLockdirTimeout`` to drop the default (ui-centric)
1940
default time down to one suitable for tests. (Andrew Bennetts)
1942
* Add new ``vfs_transport_factory`` attribute on tests which provides the
1943
common vfs backing for both the readonly and readwrite transports.
1944
This allows the RemoteObject tests to back onto local disk or memory,
1945
and use the existing ``transport_server`` attribute all tests know about
1946
to be the smart server transport. This in turn allows tests to
1947
differentiate between 'transport to access the branch', and
1948
'transport which is a VFS' - which matters in Remote* tests.
1949
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
1951
* The ``make_branch_and_tree`` method for tests will now create a
1952
lightweight checkout for the tree if the ``vfs_transport_factory`` is not
1953
a LocalURLServer. (Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
1955
* Branch implementation tests have been audited to ensure that all urls
1956
passed to Branch APIs use proper urls, except when local-disk paths
1957
are intended. This is so that tests correctly access the test transport
1958
which is often not equivalent to local disk in Remote* tests. As part
1959
of this many tests were adjusted to remove dependencies on local disk
1961
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
1963
* Mark bzrlib.tests and bzrlib.tests.TestUtil as providing assertFOO helper
1964
functions by adding a ``__unittest`` global attribute. (Robert Collins,
1965
Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool, Jonathan Lange)
1967
* Refactored proxy and authentication handling to simplify the
1968
implementation of new auth schemes for both http and proxy.
1976
* Handle incompatible repositories as a user issue when fetching.
1979
* Don't give a recommendation to upgrade when branching or
1980
checking out a branch that contains an old-format working tree.
1983
bzr 0.15rc3 2007-03-26
1984
=======================
1988
* A warning is now displayed when opening working trees in older
1989
formats, to encourage people to upgrade to WorkingTreeFormat4.
1994
* HTTP redirections are now taken into account when a branch (or a
1995
bundle) is accessed for the first time. A message is issued at each
1996
redirection to inform the user. In the past, http redirections were
1997
silently followed for each request which significantly degraded the
1998
performances. The http redirections are not followed anymore by
1999
default, instead a RedirectRequested exception is raised. For bzrlib
2000
users needing to follow http redirections anyway,
2001
``bzrlib.transport.do_catching_redirections`` provide an easy transition
2006
* Added ``ReadLock.temporary_write_lock()`` to allow upgrading an OS read
2007
lock to an OS write lock. Linux can do this without unlocking, Win32
2008
needs to unlock in between. (John Arbash Meinel)
2010
* New parameter ``recommend_upgrade`` to ``BzrDir.open_workingtree``
2011
to silence (when false) warnings about opening old formats.
2014
* Fix minor performance regression with bzr-0.15 on pre-dirstate
2015
trees. (We were reading the working inventory too many times).
2016
(John Arbash Meinel)
2018
* Remove ``Branch.get_transaction()`` in favour of a simple cache of
2019
``revision_history``. Branch subclasses should override
2020
``_gen_revision_history`` rather than ``revision_history`` to make use of
2021
this cache, and call ``_clear_revision_history_cache`` and
2022
``_cache_revision_history`` at appropriate times. (Andrew Bennetts)
2026
* Take ``smtp_server`` from user config into account.
2029
* Restore Unicode filename handling for versioned and unversioned files.
2030
(John Arbash Meinel, #92608)
2032
* Don't fail during ``bzr commit`` if a file is marked removed, and
2033
the containing directory is auto-removed. (John Arbash Meinel, #93681)
2035
* ``bzr status FILENAME`` failed on Windows because of an uncommon
2036
errno. (``ERROR_DIRECTORY == 267 != ENOTDIR``).
2037
(Wouter van Heyst, John Arbash Meinel, #90819)
2039
* ``bzr checkout source`` should create a local branch in the same
2040
format as source. (John Arbash Meinel, #93854)
2042
* ``bzr commit`` with a kind change was failing to update the
2043
last-changed-revision for directories. The
2044
InventoryDirectory._unchanged only looked at the ``parent_id`` and name,
2045
ignoring the fact that the kind could have changed, too.
2046
(John Arbash Meinel, #90111)
2048
* ``bzr mv dir/subdir other`` was incorrectly updating files inside
2049
the directory. So that there was a chance it would break commit,
2050
etc. (John Arbash Meinel, #94037)
2052
* Correctly handles mutiple permanent http redirections.
2055
bzr 0.15rc2 2007-03-14
2056
=======================
2058
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
2060
* Release 0.15rc2 of bzr changes the ``bzr init-repo`` command to
2061
default to ``--trees`` instead of ``--no-trees``.
2062
Existing shared repositories are not affected.
2066
* New ``merge-directive`` command to generate machine- and human-readable
2067
merge requests. (Aaron Bentley)
2069
* New ``submit:`` revision specifier makes it easy to diff against the
2070
common ancestor with the submit location (Aaron Bentley)
2072
* Added support for Putty's SSH implementation. (Dmitry Vasiliev)
2074
* Added ``bzr status --versioned`` to report only versioned files,
2075
not unknowns. (Kent Gibson)
2077
* Merge now autodetects the correct line-ending style for its conflict
2078
markers. (Aaron Bentley)
2082
* Refactored SSH vendor registration into SSHVendorManager class.
2087
* New ``--numbered-dirs`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to use
2088
numbered dirs for TestCaseInTempDir. This is default behavior
2089
on Windows. Anyone can force named dirs on Windows
2090
with ``--no-numbered-dirs``. (Alexander Belchenko)
2092
* Fix ``RevisionSpec_revid`` to handle the Unicode strings passed in
2093
from the command line. (Marien Zwart, #90501)
2095
* Fix ``TreeTransform._iter_changes`` when both the source and
2096
destination are missing. (Aaron Bentley, #88842)
2098
* Fix commit of merges with symlinks in dirstate trees.
2101
* Switch the ``bzr init-repo`` default from --no-trees to --trees.
2102
(Wouter van Heyst, #53483)
2105
bzr 0.15rc1 2007-03-07
2106
=======================
2110
* The default disk format has changed. Please run 'bzr upgrade' in your
2111
working trees to upgrade. This new default is compatible for network
2112
operations, but not for local operations. That is, if you have two
2113
versions of bzr installed locally, after upgrading you can only use the
2114
bzr 0.15 version. This new default does not enable tags or nested-trees
2115
as they are incompatible with bzr versions before 0.15 over the network.
2117
* For users of bzrlib: Two major changes have been made to the working tree
2118
api in bzrlib. The first is that many methods and attributes, including
2119
the inventory attribute, are no longer valid for use until one of
2120
``lock_read``/``lock_write``/``lock_tree_write`` has been called,
2121
and become invalid again after unlock is called. This has been done
2122
to improve performance and correctness as part of the dirstate
2124
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
2126
* For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
2127
readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
2128
its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
2129
unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
2130
format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
2131
cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
2132
combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API. (Robert
2133
Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
2137
* Support for OS Windows 98. Also .bzr.log on any windows system
2138
saved in My Documents folder. (Alexander Belchenko)
2140
* ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
2141
In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
2142
exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
2143
already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
2145
A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
2146
exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
2147
and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
2148
will only update the Bazaar identifier.
2149
(Steffen Eichenberg, Marius Kruger)
2151
* ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
2154
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
2157
* ``bzr pull --overwrite`` will now correctly overwrite checkouts.
2160
* Files are now allowed to change kind (e.g. from file to symlink).
2161
Supported by ``commit``, ``revert`` and ``status``
2164
* ``inventory`` and ``unknowns`` hidden in favour of ``ls``
2167
* ``bzr help checkouts`` descibes what checkouts are and some possible
2168
uses of them. (James Westby, Aaron Bentley)
2170
* A new ``-d`` option to push, pull and merge overrides the default
2171
directory. (Martin Pool)
2173
* Branch format 6: smaller, and potentially faster than format 5. Supports
2174
``append_history_only`` mode, where the log view and revnos do not change,
2175
except by being added to. Stores policy settings in
2176
".bzr/branch/branch.conf".
2178
* ``append_only`` branches: Format 6 branches may be configured so that log
2179
view and revnos are always consistent. Either create the branch using
2180
"bzr init --append-revisions-only" or edit the config file as descriped
2181
in docs/configuration.txt.
2183
* rebind: Format 6 branches retain the last-used bind location, so if you
2184
"bzr unbind", you can "bzr bind" to bind to the previously-selected
2187
* Builtin tags support, created and deleted by the ``tag`` command and
2188
stored in the branch. Tags can be accessed with the revisionspec
2189
``-rtag:``, and listed with ``bzr tags``. Tags are not versioned
2190
at present. Tags require a network incompatible upgrade. To perform this
2191
upgrade, run ``bzr upgrade --dirstate-tags`` in your branch and
2192
repositories. (Martin Pool)
2194
* The ``bzr://`` transport now has a well-known port number, 4155,
2195
which it will use by default. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
2197
* Bazaar now looks for user-installed plugins before looking for site-wide
2198
plugins. (Jonathan Lange)
2200
* ``bzr resolve`` now detects and marks resolved text conflicts.
2205
* Internally revision ids and file ids are now passed around as utf-8
2206
bytestrings, rather than treating them as Unicode strings. This has
2207
performance benefits for Knits, since we no longer need to decode the
2208
revision id for each line of content, nor for each entry in the index.
2209
This will also help with the future dirstate format.
2210
(John Arbash Meinel)
2212
* Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
2213
versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
2216
* Minor performance improvement by not creating a ProgressBar for
2217
every KnitIndex we create. (about 90ms for a bzr.dev tree)
2218
(John Arbash Meinel)
2220
* New easier to use Branch hooks facility. There are five initial hooks,
2221
all documented in bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks.__init__ - ``'set_rh'``,
2222
``'post_push'``, ``'post_pull'``, ``'post_commit'``,
2223
``'post_uncommit'``. These hooks fire after the matching operation
2224
on a branch has taken place, and were originally added for the
2225
branchrss plugin. (Robert Collins)
2227
* New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
2228
branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
2229
level command ``push``. (Robert Collins).
2231
* Add a new method ``Tree.revision_tree`` which allows access to cached
2232
trees for arbitrary revisions. This allows the in development dirstate
2233
tree format to provide access to the callers to cached copies of
2234
inventory data which are cheaper to access than inventories from the
2236
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
2238
* New ``Branch.last_revision_info`` method, this is being done to allow
2239
optimization of requests for both the number of revisions and the last
2240
revision of a branch with smartservers and potentially future branch
2241
formats. (Wouter van Heyst, Robert Collins)
2243
* Allow ``'import bzrlib.plugins.NAME'`` to work when the plugin NAME has not
2244
yet been loaded by ``load_plugins()``. This allows plugins to depend on each
2245
other for code reuse without requiring users to perform file-renaming
2246
gymnastics. (Robert Collins)
2248
* New Repository method ``'gather_stats'`` for statistic data collection.
2249
This is expected to grow to cover a number of related uses mainly
2250
related to bzr info. (Robert Collins)
2252
* Log formatters are now managed with a registry.
2253
``log.register_formatter`` continues to work, but callers accessing
2254
the FORMATTERS dictionary directly will not.
2256
* Allow a start message to be passed to the ``edit_commit_message``
2257
function. This will be placed in the message offered to the user
2258
for editing above the separator. It allows a template commit message
2259
to be used more easily. (James Westby)
2261
* ``GPGStrategy.sign()`` will now raise ``BzrBadParameterUnicode`` if
2262
you pass a Unicode string rather than an 8-bit string. Callers need
2263
to be updated to encode first. (John Arbash Meinel)
2265
* Branch.push, pull, merge now return Result objects with information
2266
about what happened, rather than a scattering of various methods. These
2267
are also passed to the post hooks. (Martin Pool)
2269
* File formats and architecture is in place for managing a forest of trees
2270
in bzr, and splitting up existing trees into smaller subtrees, and
2271
finally joining trees to make a larger tree. This is the first iteration
2272
of this support, and the user-facing aspects still require substantial
2273
work. If you wish to experiment with it, use ``bzr upgrade
2274
--dirstate-with-subtree`` in your working trees and repositories.
2275
You can use the hidden commands ``split`` and ``join`` and to create
2276
and manipulate nested trees, but please consider using the nested-trees
2277
branch, which contains substantial UI improvements, instead.
2278
http://code.aaronbentley.com/bzr/bzrrepo/nested-trees/
2279
(Aaron Bentley, Martin Pool, Robert Collins).
2283
* ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
2284
branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
2285
(John Arbash Meinel, #82158)
2287
* Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
2290
* ``bzr push`` can resume a push that was canceled before it finished.
2291
Also, it can push even if the target directory exists if you supply
2292
the ``--use-existing-dir`` flag.
2293
(John Arbash Meinel, #30576, #45504)
2295
* Fix http proxy authentication when user and an optional
2296
password appears in the ``*_proxy`` vars. (Vincent Ladeuil,
2299
* ``bzr log branch/file`` works for local treeless branches
2300
(Aaron Bentley, #84247)
2302
* Fix problem with UNC paths on Windows 98. (Alexander Belchenko, #84728)
2304
* Searching location of CA bundle for PyCurl in env variable
2305
(``CURL_CA_BUNDLE``), and on win32 along the PATH.
2306
(Alexander Belchenko, #82086)
2308
* ``bzr init`` works with unicode argument LOCATION.
2309
(Alexander Belchenko, #85599)
2311
* Raise ``DependencyNotPresent`` if pycurl do not support https.
2312
(Vincent Ladeuil, #85305)
2314
* Invalid proxy env variables should not cause a traceback.
2315
(Vincent Ladeuil, #87765)
2317
* Ignore patterns normalised to use '/' path separator.
2318
(Kent Gibson, #86451)
2320
* bzr rocks. It sure does! Fix case. (Vincent Ladeuil, #78026)
2322
* Fix bzrtools shelve command for removed lines beginning with "--"
2323
(Johan Dahlberg, #75577)
2327
* New ``--first`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to run specified tests
2328
before the rest of the suite. (Martin Pool)
2332
====================
2336
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options. (Aaron Bentley)
2340
* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
2341
available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
2342
(John Arbash Meinel, #80330)
2344
* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
2345
working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
2346
it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)
2349
bzr 0.14rc1 2007-01-16
2350
=======================
2354
* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
2355
protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
2356
server, then you can write over the http connection.
2357
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
2359
* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
2362
* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
2363
the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
2364
(and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)
2366
* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
2367
succeed. (Aaron Bentley)
2369
* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
2372
* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
2373
of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
2374
off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
2375
of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
2376
filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
2377
calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)
2379
* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
2380
inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
2381
should enable you to do::
2383
[/home/user/project]
2384
push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
2385
push_location:policy = appendpath
2387
And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
2388
automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
2391
* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
2392
for each file. For example::
2394
$ bzr status --short
2400
* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
2401
directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)
2403
* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)
2405
* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
2406
local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)
2408
* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)
2412
* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
2413
help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
2414
lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
2415
improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)
2417
* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
2418
resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
2419
preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)
2421
* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows. (Vincent Ladeuil)
2423
* When ``encoding_type`` attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
2424
force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
2425
keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
2426
(Alexander Belchenko)
2428
* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared. (Martin
2431
* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
2432
that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)
2434
* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)
2438
* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
2439
direction. (John Arbash Meinel)
2441
* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
2442
revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
2443
supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
2444
``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
2445
revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)
2447
* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. ``\HOST\path``.
2448
(Alexander Belchenko, #57869)
2450
* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
2451
line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)
2453
* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
2455
(Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)
2457
* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
2458
the test suite to test more cases. Also detect http error code 416
2459
which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
2460
robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
2461
short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)
2463
* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
2464
proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
2465
anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
2466
problem. (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)
2468
* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
2469
(Aaron Bentley, #76229)
2471
* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
2472
lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)
2474
* Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
2475
(Wouter van Heyst, #31663)
2477
* Allow plugins import from zip archives.
2478
(Alexander Belchenko, #68124)

====================
2484
No changes from 0.13rc1
2486
bzr 0.13rc1 2006-11-27
2487
=======================
2491
* New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
2493
(Daniel Silverstone)
2495
* urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
2496
operations are substantially faster.
2497
(Vincent Ladeuil, #53654)
2499
* ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
2500
tree from some other url. For example:
2501
``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
2502
(Daniel Silverstone)
2504
* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
2505
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
2506
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
2507
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)
2509
* WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server. See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
2512
* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
2513
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
2514
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
2515
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
2516
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
2517
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)
2521
* New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
2522
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
2525
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
2526
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
2527
(John Arbash Meinel)
2529
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
2530
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
2531
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
2532
(John Arbash Meinel)
2534
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
2535
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
2537
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on 'BzrDir' allows the detection of
2538
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
2540
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
2541
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew
2546
* Now ``_KnitIndex`` properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
2547
And optimize the knit index parsing code.
2548
(Dmitry Vasiliev, John Arbash Meinel)
2550
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
2551
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
2552
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
2553
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
2555
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
2557
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
2558
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
2560
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
2561
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
2562
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
2563
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
2565
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
2566
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
2567
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
2569
* ``_KnitIndex.add_versions()`` dictionary compresses revision ids as they
2570
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
2571
them as full references rather than integers.
2572
(John Arbash Meinel, #64789)
2574
* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
2575
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)
2577
* ``bzr ignore`` takes multiple arguments. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #29488)
2579
* mv correctly handles paths that traverse symlinks.
2580
(Aaron Bentley, #66964)
2582
* Give nicer looking error messages when failing to connect over ssh.
2583
(John Arbash Meinel, #49172)
2585
* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
2586
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
2587
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
2588
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
2590
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
2591
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
2592
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
2594
* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
2595
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
2597
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
2598
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
2599
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
2600
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.
2601
(Cheuksan Edward Wang, #30190)
2605
* TestingHTTPRequestHandler really handles the Range header
2606
(previously it was ignoring it and returning the whole file,).
2609
====================
2613
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
2614
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
2615
(John Arbash Meinel)
2617
bzr 0.12rc1 2006-10-23
2618
=======================
2622
* ``bzr log`` now shows dotted-decimal revision numbers for all revisions,
2623
rather than just showing a decimal revision number for revisions on the
2624
mainline. These revision numbers are not yet accepted as input into bzr
2625
commands such as log, diff etc. (Robert Collins)
2627
* revisions can now be specified using dotted-decimal revision numbers.
2628
For instance, ``bzr diff -r 1.2.1..1.2.3``. (Robert Collins)
2630
* ``bzr help commands`` output is now shorter (Aaron Bentley)
2632
* ``bzr`` now uses lazy importing to reduce the startup time. This has
2633
a moderate effect on lots of actions, especially ones that have
2634
little to do. For example ``bzr rocks`` time is down to 116ms from
2635
283ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
2637
* New Registry class to provide name-to-object registry-like support,
2638
for example for schemes where plugins can register new classes to
2639
do certain tasks (e.g. log formatters). Also provides lazy registration
2640
to allow modules to be loaded on request.
2641
(John Arbash Meinel, Adeodato Simó)
2643
API INCOMPATABILITY:
2645
* LogFormatter subclasses show now expect the 'revno' parameter to
2646
show() to be a string rather than an int. (Robert Collins)
2650
* ``TestCase.run_bzr``, ``run_bzr_captured``, and ``run_bzr_subprocess``
2651
can take a ``working_dir='foo'`` parameter, which will change directory
2652
for the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
2654
* ``bzrlib.lazy_regex.lazy_compile`` can be used to create a proxy
2655
around a regex, which defers compilation until first use.
2656
(John Arbash Meinel)
2658
* ``TestCase.run_bzr_subprocess`` defaults to supplying the
2659
``--no-plugins`` parameter to ensure test reproducability, and avoid
2660
problems with system-wide installed plugins. (John Arbash Meinel)
2662
* Unique tree root ids are now supported. Newly created trees still
2663
use the common root id for compatibility with bzr versions before 0.12.
2666
* ``WorkingTree.set_root_id(None)`` is now deprecated. Please
2667
pass in ``inventory.ROOT_ID`` if you want the default root id value.
2668
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
2670
* New method ``WorkingTree.flush()`` which will write the current memory
2671
inventory out to disk. At the same time, ``read_working_inventory`` will
2672
no longer trash the current tree inventory if it has been modified within
2673
the current lock, and the tree will now ``flush()`` automatically on
2674
``unlock()``. ``WorkingTree.set_root_id()`` has been updated to take
2675
advantage of this functionality. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
2677
* ``bzrlib.tsort.merge_sorted`` now accepts ``generate_revnos``. This
2678
parameter will cause it to add another column to its output, which
2679
contains the dotted-decimal revno for each revision, as a tuple.
2682
* ``LogFormatter.show_merge`` is deprecated in favour of
2683
``LogFormatter.show_merge_revno``. (Robert Collins)
2687
* Avoid circular imports by creating a deprecated function for
2688
``bzrlib.tree.RevisionTree``. Callers should have been using
2689
``bzrlib.revisontree.RevisionTree`` anyway. (John Arbash Meinel,
2692
* Don't use ``socket.MSG_WAITALL`` as it doesn't exist on all
2693
platforms. (Martin Pool, #66356)
2695
* Don't require ``Content-Type`` in range responses. Assume they are a
2696
single range if ``Content-Type`` does not exist.
2697
(John Arbash Meinel, #62473)
2699
* bzr branch/pull no longer complain about progress bar cleanup when
2700
interrupted during fetch. (Aaron Bentley, #54000)
2702
* ``WorkingTree.set_parent_trees()`` uses the trees to directly write
2703
the basis inventory, rather than going through the repository. This
2704
allows us to have 1 inventory read, and 2 inventory writes when
2705
committing a new tree. (John Arbash Meinel)
2707
* When reverting, files that are not locally modified that do not exist
2708
in the target are deleted, not just unversioned (Aaron Bentley)
2710
* When trying to acquire a lock, don't fail immediately. Instead, try
2711
a few times (up to 1 hour) before timing out. Also, report why the
2712
lock is unavailable (John Arbash Meinel, #43521, #49556)
2714
* Leave HttpTransportBase daughter classes decides how they
2715
implement cloning. (Vincent Ladeuil, #61606)
2717
* diff3 does not indicate conflicts on clean merge. (Aaron Bentley)
2719
* If a commit fails, the commit message is stored in a file at the root of
2720
the tree for later commit. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, Stefan Metzmacher,
2725
* New test base class TestCaseWithMemoryTransport offers memory-only
2726
testing facilities: its not suitable for tests that need to mutate disk
2727
state, but most tests should not need that and should be converted to
2728
TestCaseWithMemoryTransport. (Robert Collins)
2730
* ``TestCase.make_branch_and_memory_tree`` now takes a format
2731
option to set the BzrDir, Repository and Branch formats of the
2732
created objects. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
2735
====================
2737
* Smart server transport test failures on windows fixed. (Lukáš Lalinský).
2739
bzr 0.11rc2 2006-09-27
2740
=======================
2744
* Test suite hangs on windows fixed. (Andrew Bennets, Alexander Belchenko).
2746
* Commit performance regression fixed. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, John
2749
bzr 0.11rc1 2006-09-25
2750
=======================
2754
* Knit files now wait to create their contents until the first data is
2755
added. The old code used to create an empty .knit and a .kndx with just
2756
the header. However, this caused a lot of extra round trips over sftp.
2757
This can change the time for ``bzr push`` to create a new remote branch
2758
from 160s down to 100s. This also affects ``bzr commit`` performance when
2759
adding new files, ``bzr commit`` on a new kernel-like tree drops from 50s
2760
down to 40s (John Arbash Meinel, #44692)
2762
* When an entire subtree has been deleted, commit will now report that
2763
just the top of the subtree has been deleted, rather than reporting
2764
all the individual items. (Robert Collins)
2766
* Commit performs one less XML parse. (Robert Collins)
2768
* ``bzr checkout`` now operates on readonly branches as well
2769
as readwrite branches. This fixes bug #39542. (Robert Collins)
2771
* ``bzr bind`` no longer synchronises history with the master branch.
2772
Binding should be followed by an update or push to synchronise the
2773
two branches. This is closely related to the fix for bug #39542.
2776
* ``bzrlib.lazy_import.lazy_import`` function to create on-demand
2777
objects. This allows all imports to stay at the global scope, but
2778
modules will not actually be imported if they are not used.
2779
(John Arbash Meinel)
2781
* Support ``bzr://`` and ``bzr+ssh://`` urls to work with the new RPC-based
2782
transport which will be used with the upcoming high-performance smart
2783
server. The new command ``bzr serve`` will invoke bzr in server mode,
2784
which processes these requests. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, Martin
2787
* New command ``bzr version-info`` which can be used to get a summary
2788
of the current state of the tree. This is especially useful as part
2789
of a build commands. See ``doc/version_info.txt`` for more information
2790
(John Arbash Meinel)
2794
* ``'bzr inventory [FILE...]'`` allows restricting the file list to a
2795
specific set of files. (John Arbash Meinel, #3631)
2797
* Don't abort when annotating empty files (John Arbash Meinel, #56814)
2799
* Add ``Stanza.to_unicode()`` which can be passed to another Stanza
2800
when nesting stanzas. Also, add ``read_stanza_unicode`` to handle when
2801
reading a nested Stanza. (John Arbash Meinel)
2803
* Transform._set_mode() needs to stat the right file.
2804
(John Arbash Meinel, #56549)
2806
* Raise WeaveFormatError rather than StopIteration when trying to read
2807
an empty Weave file. (John Arbash Meinel, #46871)
2809
* Don't access e.code for generic URLErrors, only HTTPErrors have .code.
2810
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59835)
2812
* Handle boundary="" lines properly to allow access through a Squid proxy.
2813
(John Arbash Meinel, #57723)
2815
* revert now removes newly-added directories (Aaron Bentley, #54172)
2817
* ``bzr upgrade sftp://`` shouldn't fail to upgrade v6 branches if there
2818
isn't a working tree. (David Allouche, #40679)
2820
* Give nicer error messages when a user supplies an invalid --revision
2821
parameter. (John Arbash Meinel, #55420)
2823
* Handle when LANG is not recognized by python. Emit a warning, but
2824
just revert to using 'ascii'. (John Arbash Meinel, #35392)
2826
* Don't use ``preexec_fn`` on win32, as it is not supported by subprocess.
2827
(John Arbash Meinel)
2829
* Skip specific tests when the dependencies aren't met. This includes
2830
some ``setup.py`` tests when ``python-dev`` is not available, and
2831
some tests that depend on paramiko. (John Arbash Meinel, Mattheiu Moy)
2833
* Fallback to Paramiko properly, if no ``ssh`` executable exists on
2834
the system. (Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
2836
* ``Branch.bind(other_branch)`` no longer takes a write lock on the
2837
other branch, and will not push or pull between the two branches.
2838
API users will need to perform a push or pull or update operation if they
2839
require branch synchronisation to take place. (Robert Collins, #47344)
2841
* When creating a tarball or zipfile export, export unicode names as utf-8
2842
paths. This may not work perfectly on all platforms, but has the best
2843
chance of working in the common case. (John Arbash Meinel, #56816)
2845
* When committing, only files that exist in working tree or basis tree
2846
may be specified (Aaron Bentley, #50793)
2850
* Fixes to run on Python 2.5 (Brian M. Carlson, Martin Pool, Marien Zwart)
2854
* TestCaseInTempDir now creates a separate directory for HOME, rather
2855
than having HOME set to the same location as the working directory.
2856
(John Arbash Meinel)
2858
* ``run_bzr_subprocess()`` can take an optional ``env_changes={}`` parameter,
2859
which will update os.environ inside the spawned child. It also can
2860
take a ``universal_newlines=True``, which helps when checking the output
2861
of the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
2863
* Refactor SFTP vendors to allow easier re-use when ssh is used.
2866
* ``Transport.list_dir()`` and ``Transport.iter_files_recursive()`` should always
2867
return urlescaped paths. This is now tested (there were bugs in a few
2868
of the transports) (Andrew Bennetts, David Allouche, John Arbash Meinel)
2870
* New utility function ``symbol_versioning.deprecation_string``. Returns the
2871
formatted string for a callable, deprecation format pair. (Robert Collins)
2873
* New TestCase helper applyDeprecated. This allows you to call a callable
2874
which is deprecated without it spewing to the screen, just by supplying
2875
the deprecation format string issued for it. (Robert Collins)
2877
* Transport.append and Transport.put have been deprecated in favor of
2878
``.append_bytes``, ``.append_file``, ``.put_bytes``, and
2879
``.put_file``. This removes the ambiguity in what type of object the
2880
functions take. ``Transport.non_atomic_put_{bytes,file}`` has also
2881
been added. Which works similarly to ``Transport.append()`` except for
2882
SFTP, it doesn't have a round trip when opening the file. Also, it
2883
provides functionality for creating a parent directory when trying
2884
to create a file, rather than raise NoSuchFile and forcing the
2885
caller to repeat their request.
2886
(John Arbash Meinel)
2888
* WorkingTree has a new api ``unversion`` which allow the unversioning of
2889
entries by their file id. (Robert Collins)
2891
* ``WorkingTree.pending_merges`` is deprecated. Please use the
2892
``get_parent_ids`` (introduced in 0.10) method instead. (Robert Collins)
2894
* WorkingTree has a new ``lock_tree_write`` method which locks the branch for
2895
read rather than write. This is appropriate for actions which only need
2896
the branch data for reference rather than mutation. A new decorator
2897
``needs_tree_write_lock`` is provided in the workingtree module. Like the
2898
``needs_read_lock`` and ``needs_write_lock`` decorators this allows static
2899
declaration of the locking requirements of a function to ensure that
2900
a lock is taken out for casual scripts. (Robert Collins, #54107)
2902
* All WorkingTree methods which write to the tree, but not to the branch
2903
have been converted to use ``needs_tree_write_lock`` rather than
2904
``needs_write_lock``. Also converted is the revert, conflicts and tree
2905
transform modules. This provides a modest performance improvement on
2906
metadir style trees, due to the reduce lock-acquisition, and a more
2907
significant performance improvement on lightweight checkouts from
2908
remote branches, where trivial operations used to pay a significant
2909
penalty. It also provides the basis for allowing readonly checkouts.
2912
* Special case importing the standard library 'copy' module. This shaves
2913
off 40ms of startup time, while retaining compatibility. See:
2914
``bzrlib/inspect_for_copy.py`` for more details. (John Arbash Meinel)
2916
* WorkingTree has a new parent class MutableTree which represents the
2917
specialisations of Tree which are able to be altered. (Robert Collins)
2919
* New methods mkdir and ``put_file_bytes_non_atomic`` on MutableTree that
2920
mutate the tree and its contents. (Robert Collins)
2922
* Transport behaviour at the root of the URL is now defined and tested.
2923
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
2927
* New test helper classs MemoryTree. This is typically accessed via
2928
``self.make_branch_and_memory_tree()`` in test cases. (Robert Collins)
2930
* Add ``start_bzr_subprocess`` and ``stop_bzr_subprocess`` to allow test
2931
code to continue running concurrently with a subprocess of bzr.
2932
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
2934
* Add a new method ``Transport.get_smart_client()``. This is provided to
2935
allow upgrades to a richer interface than the VFS one provided by
2936
Transport. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
2939
====================
2942
* 'merge' now takes --uncommitted, to apply uncommitted changes from a
2943
tree. (Aaron Bentley)
2945
* 'bzr add --file-ids-from' can be used to specify another path to use
2946
for creating file ids, rather than generating all new ones. Internally,
2947
the 'action' passed to ``smart_add_tree()`` can return ``file_ids`` that
2948
will be used, rather than having bzrlib generate new ones.
2949
(John Arbash Meinel, #55781)
2951
* ``bzr selftest --benchmark`` now allows a ``--cache-dir`` parameter.
2952
This will cache some of the intermediate trees, and decrease the
2953
setup time for benchmark tests. (John Arbash Meinel)
2955
* Inverse forms are provided for all boolean options. For example,
2956
--strict has --no-strict, --no-recurse has --recurse (Aaron Bentley)
2958
* Serialize out Inventories directly, rather than using ElementTree.
2959
Writing out a kernel sized inventory drops from 2s down to ~350ms.
2960
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
2964
* Help diffutils 2.8.4 get along with binary tests (Marien Zwart: #57614)
2966
* Change LockDir so that if the lock directory doesn't exist when
2967
``lock_write()`` is called, an attempt will be made to create it.
2968
(John Arbash Meinel, #56974)
2970
* ``bzr uncommit`` preserves pending merges. (John Arbash Meinel, #57660)
2972
* Active FTP transport now works as intended. (ghozzy, #56472)
2974
* Really fix mutter() so that it won't ever raise a UnicodeError.
2975
It means it is possible for ~/.bzr.log to contain non UTF-8 characters.
2976
But it is a debugging log, not a real user file.
2977
(John Arbash Meinel, #56947, #53880)
2979
* Change Command handle to allow Unicode command and options.
2980
At present we cannot register Unicode command names, so we will get
2981
BzrCommandError('unknown command'), or BzrCommandError('unknown option')
2982
But that is better than a UnicodeError + a traceback.
2983
(John Arbash Meinel, #57123)
2985
* Handle TZ=UTC properly when reading/writing revisions.
2986
(John Arbash Meinel, #55783, #56290)
2988
* Use ``GPG_TTY`` to allow gpg --cl to work with gpg-agent in a pipeline,
2989
(passing text to sign in on stdin). (John Arbash Meinel, #54468)
2991
* External diff does the right thing for binaries even in foreign
2992
languages. (John Arbash Meinel, #56307)
2994
* Testament handles more cases when content is unicode. Specific bug was
2995
in handling of revision properties.
2996
(John Arbash Meinel, Holger Krekel, #54723)
2998
* The bzr selftest was failing on installed versions due to a bug in a new
2999
test helper. (John Arbash Meinel, Robert Collins, #58057)
3003
* ``bzrlib.cache_utf8`` contains ``encode()`` and ``decode()`` functions
3004
which can be used to cache the conversion between utf8 and Unicode.
3005
Especially helpful for some of the knit annotation code, which has to
3006
convert revision ids to utf8 to annotate lines in storage.
3007
(John Arbash Meinel)
3009
* ``setup.py`` now searches the filesystem to find all packages which
3010
need to be installed. This should help make the life of packagers
3011
easier. (John Arbash Meinel)
3013
bzr 0.9.0 2006-08-11
3014
=====================
3018
* The hard-coded built-in ignore rules have been removed. There are
3019
now two rulesets which are enforced. A user global one in
3020
``~/.bazaar/ignore`` which will apply to every tree, and the tree
3021
specific one '.bzrignore'.
3022
``~/.bazaar/ignore`` will be created if it does not exist, but with
3023
a more conservative list than the old default.
3024
This fixes bugs with default rules being enforced no matter what.
3025
The old list of ignore rules from bzr is available by
3026
running 'bzr ignore --old-default-rules'.
3027
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool, John Arbash Meinel)
3029
* 'branches.conf' has been changed to 'locations.conf', since it can apply
3030
to more locations than just branch locations.
3035
* The revision specifier "revno:" is extended to accept the syntax
3036
revno:N:branch. For example,
3037
revno:42:http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/ means revision 42 in
3038
bzr.dev. (Matthieu Moy)
3040
* Tests updates to ensure proper URL handling, UNICODE support, and
3041
proper printing when the user's terminal encoding cannot display
3042
the path of a file that has been versioned.
3043
``bzr branch`` can take a target URL rather than only a local directory.
3044
``Branch.get_parent()/set_parent()`` now save a relative path if possible,
3045
and normalize the parent based on root, allowing access across
3046
different transports. (John Arbash Meinel, Wouter van Heyst, Martin Pool)
3047
(Malone #48906, #42699, #40675, #5281, #3980, #36363, #43689,
3050
* On Unix, detect terminal width using an ioctl not just $COLUMNS.
3051
Use terminal width for single-line logs from ``bzr log --line`` and
3052
pending-merge display. (Robert Widhopf-Fenk, Gustavo Niemeyer)
3055
* On Windows, detect terminal width using GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo.
3056
(Alexander Belchenko)
3058
* Speedup improvement for 'date:'-revision search. (Guillaume Pinot).
3060
* Show the correct number of revisions pushed when pushing a new branch.
3063
* 'bzr selftest' now shows a progress bar with the number of tests, and
3064
progress made. 'make check' shows tests in -v mode, to be more useful
3065
for the PQM status window. (Robert Collins).
3066
When using a progress bar, failed tests are printed out, rather than
3067
being overwritten by the progress bar until the suite finishes.
3068
(John Arbash Meinel)
3070
* 'bzr selftest --benchmark' will run a new benchmarking selftest.
3071
'bzr selftest --benchmark --lsprof-timed' will use lsprofile to generate
3072
profile data for the individual profiled calls, allowing for fine
3073
grained analysis of performance.
3074
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
3076
* 'bzr commit' shows a progress bar. This is useful for commits over sftp
3077
where commit can take an appreciable time. (Robert Collins)
3079
* 'bzr add' is now less verbose in telling you what ignore globs were
3080
matched by files being ignored. Instead it just tells you how many
3081
were ignored (because you might reasonably be expecting none to be
3082
ignored). 'bzr add -v' is unchanged and will report every ignored
3083
file. (Robert Collins).
3085
* ftp now has a test server if medusa is installed. As part of testing,
3086
ftp support has been improved, including support for supplying a
3087
non-standard port. (John Arbash Meinel).
3089
* 'bzr log --line' shows the revision number, and uses only the
3090
first line of the log message (#5162, Alexander Belchenko;
3093
* 'bzr status' has had the --all option removed. The 'bzr ls' command
3094
should be used to retrieve all versioned files. (Robert Collins)
3096
* 'bzr bundle OTHER/BRANCH' will create a bundle which can be sent
3097
over email, and applied on the other end, while maintaining ancestry.
3098
This bundle can be applied with either 'bzr merge' or 'bzr pull',
3099
the same way you would apply another branch.
3100
(John Arbash Meinel, Aaron Bentley)
3102
* 'bzr whoami' can now be used to set your identity from the command line,
3103
for a branch or globally. (Robey Pointer)
3105
* 'bzr checkout' now aliased to 'bzr co', and 'bzr annotate' to 'bzr ann'.
3108
* 'bzr revert DIRECTORY' now reverts the contents of the directory as well.
3111
* 'bzr get sftp://foo' gives a better error when paramiko is not present.
3112
Also updates things like 'http+pycurl://' if pycurl is not present.
3113
(John Arbash Meinel) (Malone #47821, #52204)
3115
* New env variable ``BZR_PROGRESS_BAR``, sets the default progress bar type.
3116
Can be set to 'none' or 'dummy' to disable the progress bar, 'dots' or
3117
'tty' to create the respective type. (John Arbash Meinel, #42197, #51107)
3119
* Improve the help text for 'bzr diff' to explain what various options do.
3120
(John Arbash Meinel, #6391)
3122
* 'bzr uncommit -r 10' now uncommits revisions 11.. rather than uncommitting
3123
revision 10. This makes -r10 more in line with what other commands do.
3124
'bzr uncommit' also now saves the pending merges of the revisions that
3125
were removed. So it is safe to uncommit after a merge, fix something,
3126
and commit again. (John Arbash Meinel, #32526, #31426)
3128
* 'bzr init' now also works on remote locations.
3129
(Wouter van Heyst, #48904)
3131
* HTTP support has been updated. When using pycurl we now support
3132
connection keep-alive, which reduces dns requests and round trips.
3133
And for both urllib and pycurl we support multi-range requests,
3134
which decreases the number of round-trips. Performance results for
3135
``bzr branch http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/`` indicate
3136
http branching is now 2-3x faster, and ``bzr pull`` in an existing
3137
branch is as much as 4x faster.
3138
(Michael Ellerman, Johan Rydberg, John Arbash Meinel, #46768)
3140
* Performance improvements for sftp. Branching and pulling are now up to
3141
2x faster. Utilize paramiko.readv() support for async requests if it
3142
is available (paramiko > 1.6) (John Arbash Meinel)
3146
* Fix shadowed definition of TestLocationConfig that caused some
3148
(Erik Bågfors, Michael Ellerman, Martin Pool, #32587)
3150
* Fix unnecessary requirement of sign-my-commits that it be run from
3151
a working directory. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3153
* 'bzr push location' will only remember the push location if it succeeds
3154
in connecting to the remote location. (John Arbash Meinel, #49742)
3156
* 'bzr revert' no longer toggles the executable bit on win32
3157
(John Arbash Meinel, #45010)
3159
* Handle broken pipe under win32 correctly. (John Arbash Meinel)
3161
* sftp tests now work correctly on win32 if you have a newer paramiko
3162
(John Arbash Meinel)
3164
* Cleanup win32 test suite, and general cleanup of places where
3165
file handles were being held open. (John Arbash Meinel)
3167
* When specifying filenames for 'diff -r x..y', the name of the file in the
3168
working directory can be used, even if its name is different in both x
3171
* File-ids containing single- or double-quotes are handled correctly by
3172
push. (Aaron Bentley, #52227)
3174
* Normalize unicode filenames to ensure cross-platform consistency.
3175
(John Arbash Meinel, #43689)
3177
* The argument parser can now handle '-' as an argument. Currently
3178
no code interprets it specially (it is mostly handled as a file named
3179
'-'). But plugins, and future operations can use it.
3180
(John Arbash meinel, #50984)
3182
* Bundles can properly read binary files with a plain '\r' in them.
3183
(John Arbash Meinel, #51927)
3185
* Tuning ``iter_entries()`` to be more efficient (John Arbash Meinel, #5444)
3187
* Lots of win32 fixes (the test suite passes again).
3188
(John Arbash Meinel, #50155)
3190
* Handle openbsd returning None for sys.getfilesystemencoding() (#41183)
3192
* Support ftp APPE (append) to allow Knits to be used over ftp (#42592)
3194
* Removals are only committed if they match the filespec (or if there is
3195
no filespec). (#46635, Aaron Bentley)
3197
* smart-add recurses through all supplied directories
3198
(John Arbash Meinel, #52578)
3200
* Make the bundle reader extra lines before and after the bundle text.
3201
This allows you to parse an email with the bundle inline.
3202
(John Arbash Meinel, #49182)
3204
* Change the file id generator to squash a little bit more. Helps when
3205
working with long filenames on windows. (Also helps for unicode filenames
3206
not generating hidden files). (John Arbash Meinel, #43801)
3208
* Restore terminal mode on C-c while reading sftp password. (#48923,
3209
Nicholas Allen, Martin Pool)
3211
* Timestamps are rounded to 1ms, and revision entries can be recreated
3212
exactly. (John Arbash Meinel, Jamie Wilkinson, #40693)
3214
* Branch.base has changed to a URL, but ~/.bazaar/locations.conf should
3215
use local paths, since it is user visible (John Arbash Meinel, #53653)
3217
* ``bzr status foo`` when foo was unversioned used to cause a full delta
3218
to be generated (John Arbash Meinel, #53638)
3220
* When reading revision properties, an empty value should be considered
3221
the empty string, not None (John Arbash Meinel, #47782)
3223
* ``bzr diff --diff-options`` can now handle binary files being changed.
3224
Also, the output is consistent when --diff-options is not supplied.
3225
(John Arbash Meinel, #54651, #52930)
3227
* Use the right suffixes for loading plugins (John Arbash Meinel, #51810)
3229
* Fix ``Branch.get_parent()`` to handle the case when the parent is not
3230
accessible (John Arbash Meinel, #52976)
3234
* Combine the ignore rules into a single regex rather than looping over
3235
them to reduce the threshold where N^2 behaviour occurs in operations
3236
like status. (Jan Hudec, Robert Collins).
3238
* Appending to ``bzrlib.DEFAULT_IGNORE`` is now deprecated. Instead, use
3239
one of the add functions in bzrlib.ignores. (John Arbash Meinel)
3241
* 'bzr push' should only push the ancestry of the current revision, not
3242
all of the history in the repository. This is especially important for
3243
shared repositories. (John Arbash Meinel)
3245
* ``bzrlib.delta.compare_trees`` now iterates in alphabetically sorted order,
3246
rather than randomly walking the inventories. (John Arbash Meinel)
3248
* Doctests are now run in temporary directories which are cleaned up when
3249
they finish, rather than using special ScratchDir/ScratchBranch objects.
3252
* Split ``check`` into separate methods on the branch and on the repository,
3253
so that it can be specialized in ways that are useful or efficient for
3254
different formats. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3256
* Deprecate ``Repository.all_revision_ids``; most methods don't really need
3257
the global revision graph but only that part leading up to a particular
3258
revision. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3260
* Add a BzrDirFormat ``control_formats`` list which allows for control formats
3261
that do not use '.bzr' to store their data - i.e. '.svn', '.hg' etc.
3262
(Robert Collins, Jelmer Vernooij).
3264
* ``bzrlib.diff.external_diff`` can be redirected to any file-like object.
3265
Uses subprocess instead of spawnvp.
3266
(James Henstridge, John Arbash Meinel, #4047, #48914)
3268
* New command line option '--profile-imports', which will install a custom
3269
importer to log time to import modules and regex compilation time to
3270
sys.stderr (John Arbash Meinel)
3272
* 'EmptyTree' is now deprecated, please use ``repository.revision_tree(None)``
3273
instead. (Robert Collins)
3275
* "RevisionTree" is now in bzrlib/revisiontree.py. (Robert Collins)
3277
bzr 0.8.2 2006-05-17
3278
=====================
3282
* setup.py failed to install launchpad plugin. (Martin Pool)
3284
bzr 0.8.1 2006-05-16
3285
=====================
3289
* Fix failure to commit a merge in a checkout. (Martin Pool,
3290
Robert Collins, Erik Bågfors, #43959)
3292
* Nicer messages from 'commit' in the case of renames, and correct
3293
messages when a merge has occured. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3295
* Separate functionality from assert statements as they are skipped in
3296
optimized mode of python. Add the same check to pending merges.
3297
(Olaf Conradi, #44443)
3301
* Do not show the None revision in output of bzr ancestry. (Olaf Conradi)
3303
* Add info on standalone branches without a working tree.
3304
(Olaf Conradi, #44155)
3306
* Fix bug in knits when raising InvalidRevisionId. (Olaf Conradi, #44284)
3310
* Make editor invocation comply with Debian Policy. First check
3311
environment variables VISUAL and EDITOR, then try editor from
3312
alternatives system. If that all fails, fall back to the pre-defined
3313
list of editors. (Olaf Conradi, #42904)
3317
* New 'register-branch' command registers a public branch into
3318
Launchpad.net, where it can be associated with bugs, etc.
3319
(Martin Pool, Bjorn Tillenius, Robert Collins)
3323
* New public api in InventoryEntry - ``describe_change(old, new)`` which
3324
provides a human description of the changes between two old and
3325
new. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3329
* Fix test case for bzr info in upgrading a standalone branch to metadir,
3330
uses bzrlib api now. (Olaf Conradi)
3335
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
3337
Release 0.8 of bzr introduces a new format for history storage, called
3338
'knit', as an evolution of to the 'weave' format used in 0.7. Local
3339
and remote operations are faster using knits than weaves. Several
3340
operations including 'init', 'init-repo', and 'upgrade' take a
3341
--format option that controls this. Branching from an existing branch
3342
will keep the same format.
3344
It is possible to merge, pull and push between branches of different
3345
formats but this is slower than moving data between homogenous
3346
branches. It is therefore recommended (but not required) that you
3347
upgrade all branches for a project at the same time. Information on
3348
formats is shown by 'bzr info'.
3350
bzr 0.8 now allows creation of 'repositories', which hold the history
3351
of files and revisions for several branches. Previously bzr kept all
3352
the history for a branch within the .bzr directory at the root of the
3353
branch, and this is still the default. To create a repository, use
3354
the new 'bzr init-repo' command. Branches exist as directories under
3355
the repository and contain just a small amount of information
3356
indicating the current revision of the branch.
3358
bzr 0.8 also supports 'checkouts', which are similar to in cvs and
3359
subversion. Checkouts are associated with a branch (optionally in a
3360
repository), which contains all the historical information. The
3361
result is that a checkout can be deleted without losing any
3362
already-committed revisions. A new 'update' command is also available.
3364
Repositories and checkouts are not supported with the 0.7 storage
3365
format. To use them you must upgrad to either knits, or to the
3366
'metaweave' format, which uses weaves but changes the .bzr directory
3372
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
3373
convention. Paths now take the form::
3375
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
3377
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
3379
* The FTP transport now tries to reconnect after a temporary
3380
failure. ftp put is made atomic. (Matthieu Moy)
3382
* The FTP transport now maintains a pool of connections, and
3383
reuses them to avoid multiple connections to the same host (like
3384
sftp did). (Daniel Silverstone)
3386
* The ``bzr_man.py`` file has been removed. To create the man page now,
3387
use ``./generate_docs.py man``. The new program can also create other files.
3388
Run ``python generate_docs.py --help`` for usage information.
3389
(Hans Ulrich Niedermann & James Blackwell).
3391
* Man Page now gives full help (James Blackwell).
3392
Help also updated to reflect user config now being stored in .bazaar
3393
(Hans Ulrich Niedermann)
3395
* It's now possible to set aliases in bazaar.conf (Erik Bågfors)
3397
* Pull now accepts a --revision argument (Erik Bågfors)
3399
* ``bzr re-sign`` now allows multiple revisions to be supplied on the command
3400
line. You can now use the following command to sign all of your old
3403
find .bzr/revision-store// -name my@email-* \
3404
| sed 's/.*\/\/..\///' \
3407
* Upgrade can now upgrade over the network. (Robert Collins)
3409
* Two new commands 'bzr checkout' and 'bzr update' allow for CVS/SVN-alike
3410
behaviour. By default they will cache history in the checkout, but
3411
with --lightweight almost all data is kept in the master branch.
3414
* 'revert' unversions newly-versioned files, instead of deleting them.
3416
* 'merge' is more robust. Conflict messages have changed.
3418
* 'merge' and 'revert' no longer clobber existing files that end in '~' or
3421
* Default log format can be set in configuration and plugins can register
3422
their own formatters. (Erik Bågfors)
3424
* New 'reconcile' command will check branch consistency and repair indexes
3425
that can become out of sync in pre 0.8 formats. (Robert Collins,
3428
* New 'bzr init --format' and 'bzr upgrade --format' option to control
3429
what storage format is created or produced. (Robert Collins,
3432
* Add parent location to 'bzr info', if there is one. (Olaf Conradi)
3434
* New developer commands 'weave-list' and 'weave-join'. (Martin Pool)
3436
* New 'init-repository' command, plus support for repositories in 'init'
3437
and 'branch' (Aaron Bentley, Erik Bågfors, Robert Collins)
3439
* Improve output of 'info' command. Show all relevant locations related to
3440
working tree, branch and repository. Use kibibytes for binary quantities.
3441
Fix off-by-one error in missing revisions of working tree. Make 'info'
3442
work on branches, repositories and remote locations. Show locations
3443
relative to the shared repository, if applicable. Show locking status
3444
of locations. (Olaf Conradi)
3446
* Diff and merge now safely handle binary files. (Aaron Bentley)
3448
* 'pull' and 'push' now normalise the revision history, so that any two
3449
branches with the same tip revision will have the same output from 'log'.
3452
* 'merge' accepts --remember option to store parent location, like 'push'
3453
and 'pull'. (Olaf Conradi)
3455
* bzr status and diff when files given as arguments do not exist
3456
in the relevant trees. (Martin Pool, #3619)
3458
* Add '.hg' to the default ignore list. (Martin Pool)
3460
* 'knit' is now the default disk format. This improves disk performance and
3461
utilization, increases incremental pull performance, robustness with SFTP
3462
and allows checkouts over SFTP to perform acceptably.
3463
The initial Knit code was contributed by Johan Rydberg based on a
3464
specification by Martin Pool.
3465
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley, Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool).
3467
* New tool to generate all-in-one html version of the manual. (Alexander
3470
* Hitting CTRL-C while doing an SFTP push will no longer cause stale locks
3471
to be left in the SFTP repository. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
3473
* New option 'diff --prefix' to control how files are named in diff
3474
output, with shortcuts '-p0' and '-p1' corresponding to the options for
3475
GNU patch. (Alexander Belchenko, Goffredo Baroncelli, Martin Pool)
3477
* Add --revision option to 'annotate' command. (Olaf Conradi)
3479
* If bzr shows an unexpected revision-history after pulling (perhaps due
3480
to a reweave) it can now be corrected by 'bzr reconcile'.
3485
* Commit is now verbose by default, and shows changed filenames and the
3486
new revision number. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3488
* Unify 'mv', 'move', 'rename'. (Matthew Fuller, #5379)
3490
* 'bzr -h' shows help. (Martin Pool, Ian Bicking, #35940)
3492
* Make 'pull' and 'push' remember location on failure using --remember.
3495
* For compatibility, make old format for using weaves inside metadir
3496
available as 'metaweave' format. Rename format 'metadir' to 'default'.
3497
Clean up help for option --format in commands 'init', 'init-repo' and
3498
'upgrade'. (Olaf Conradi)
3502
* The internal storage of history, and logical branch identity have now
3503
been split into Branch, and Repository. The common locking and file
3504
management routines are now in bzrlib.lockablefiles.
3505
(Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3507
* Transports can now raise DependencyNotPresent if they need a library
3508
which is not installed, and then another implementation will be
3509
tried. (Martin Pool)
3511
* Remove obsolete (and no-op) `decode` parameter to `Transport.get`.
3514
* Using Tree Transform for merge, revert, tree-building
3516
* WorkingTree.create, Branch.create, ``WorkingTree.create_standalone``,
3517
Branch.initialize are now deprecated. Please see ``BzrDir.create_*`` for
3518
replacement API's. (Robert Collins)
3520
* New BzrDir class represents the .bzr control directory and manages
3521
formatting issues. (Robert Collins)
3523
* New repository.InterRepository class encapsulates Repository to
3524
Repository actions and allows for clean selection of optimised code
3525
paths. (Robert Collins)
3527
* ``bzrlib.fetch.fetch`` and ``bzrlib.fetch.greedy_fetch`` are now
3528
deprecated, please use ``branch.fetch`` or ``repository.fetch``
3529
depending on your needs. (Robert Collins)
3531
* deprecated methods now have a ``is_deprecated`` flag on them that can
3532
be checked, if you need to determine whether a given callable is
3533
deprecated at runtime. (Robert Collins)
3535
* Progress bars are now nested - see
3536
``bzrlib.ui.ui_factory.nested_progress_bar``.
3537
(Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
3539
* New API call ``get_format_description()`` for each type of format.
3542
* Changed ``branch.set_parent()`` to accept None to remove parent.
3545
* Deprecated BzrError AmbiguousBase. (Olaf Conradi)
3547
* WorkingTree.branch is now a read only property. (Robert Collins)
3549
* bzrlib.ui.text.TextUIFactory now accepts a ``bar_type`` parameter which
3550
can be None or a factory that will create a progress bar. This is
3551
useful for testing or for overriding the bzrlib.progress heuristic.
3554
* New API method ``get_physical_lock_status()`` to query locks present on a
3555
transport. (Olaf Conradi)
3557
* Repository.reconcile now takes a thorough keyword parameter to allow
3558
requesting an indepth reconciliation, rather than just a data-loss
3559
check. (Robert Collins)
3561
* ``bzrlib.ui.ui_factory protocol`` now supports ``get_boolean`` to prompt
3562
the user for yes/no style input. (Robert Collins)
3566
* SFTP tests now shortcut the SSH negotiation, reducing test overhead
3567
for testing SFTP protocol support. (Robey Pointer)
3569
* Branch formats are now tested once per implementation (see ``bzrlib.
3570
tests.branch_implementations``. This is analagous to the transport
3571
interface tests, and has been followed up with working tree,
3572
repository and BzrDir tests. (Robert Collins)
3574
* New test base class TestCaseWithTransport provides a transport aware
3575
test environment, useful for testing any transport-interface using
3576
code. The test suite option --transport controls the transport used
3577
by this class (when its not being used as part of implementation
3578
contract testing). (Robert Collins)
3580
* Close logging handler on disabling the test log. This will remove the
3581
handler from the internal list inside python's logging module,
3582
preventing shutdown from closing it twice. (Olaf Conradi)
3584
* Move test case for uncommit to blackbox tests. (Olaf Conradi)
3586
* ``run_bzr`` and ``run_bzr_captured`` now accept a 'stdin="foo"'
3587
parameter which will provide String("foo") to the command as its stdin.
3594
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
3595
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
3597
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
3598
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
3599
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
3602
* Under Windows configuration directory is now ``%APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0``
3603
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
3605
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by ``BZR_HOME``
3606
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in ``BZR_HOME``,
3607
then in HOME. Under Windows the order is: ``BZR_HOME``, ``APPDATA``
3608
(usually points to ``C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data``),
3609
``HOME``. (John Arbash Meinel)
3611
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
3612
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
3613
used. (Robert Collins)
3615
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
3616
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
3619
* Permissions on files underneath .bzr/ are inherited from the .bzr
3620
directory. So for a shared repository, simply doing 'chmod -R g+w .bzr/'
3621
will mean that future file will be created with group write permissions.
3623
* configure.in and config.guess are no longer in the builtin default
3626
* '.sw[nop]' pattern ignored, to ignore vim swap files for nameless
3627
files. (John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool)
3631
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
3632
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
3634
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
3636
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
3638
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
3639
tree. (Robert Collins)
3641
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
3642
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
3643
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
3646
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
3649
* Tweaks to short log printing
3651
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
3654
* If ``$BZR_PDB`` is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
3655
occurs. (Martin Pool)
3657
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
3658
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
3660
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
3661
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
3663
* Commit editor temporary files now start with ``bzr_log.``, to allow
3664
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
3665
settings. (Magnus Therning)
3667
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
3668
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
3670
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
3671
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
3674
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
3675
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
3677
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
3678
(Matthieu Moy, #3632)
3680
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
3681
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
3683
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
3686
* 'bzr add' now takes a --dry-run parameter which shows you what would be
3687
added, but doesn't actually add anything. (Michael Ellerman)
3689
* 'bzr add' now lists how many files were ignored per glob. add --verbose
3690
lists the specific files. (Aaron Bentley)
3692
* 'bzr missing' now supports displaying changes in diverged trees and can
3693
be limited to show what either end of the comparison is missing.
3694
(Aaron Bently, with a little prompting from Daniel Silverstone)
3698
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
3700
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
3702
* Error when run with -OO
3704
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
3707
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
3709
* Change status to 3 for all errors
3711
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
3712
ignored by diff and status
3714
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
3715
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
3717
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
3719
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
3721
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
3722
status' output. (Daniel Silverstone, #4503)
3724
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
3725
email address. (Marien Zwart)
3727
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages.
3730
* List of plugin directories in ``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` environment variable is
3731
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
3733
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
3735
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
3736
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
3738
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters.
3741
* Remove Makefile.in from default ignore list.
3742
(Tollef Fog Heen, Martin Pool, #6413)
3744
* Fix failure in 'bzr added'. (Nathan McCallum, Martin Pool)
3748
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
3749
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
3751
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
3753
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
3755
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
3757
* Updated ``build_tree`` to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
3758
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
3759
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
3761
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
3763
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
3764
(John Arbash Meinel)
3766
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
3768
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
3769
If adding a new test script please add that to
3770
``bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__``. (Robert Collins)
3772
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
3773
imported. (Martin Pool)
3775
* Make check now runs the test suite twice - once with the default locale,
3776
and once with all locales forced to C, to expose bugs. This is not
3777
trivially done within python, so for now its only triggered by running
3778
Make check. Integrators and packagers who wish to check for full
3779
platform support should run 'make check' to test the source.
3782
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
3783
(Martin Pool) (NB: TestSkipped should only be raised for correctable
3784
reasons - see the wiki spec ImprovingBzrTestSuite).
3786
* Test sftp with relative, absolute-in-homedir and absolute-not-in-homedir
3787
paths for the transport tests. Introduce blackbox remote sftp tests that
3788
test the same permutations. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
3790
* Transport implementation tests are now independent of the local file
3791
system, which allows tests for esoteric transports, and for features
3792
not available in the local file system. They also repeat for variations
3793
on the URL scheme that can introduce issues in the transport code,
3794
see bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter() for this.
3797
* ``TestCase.build_tree`` uses the transport interface to build trees,
3798
pass in a transport parameter to give it an existing connection.
3803
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
3804
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
3806
* ``commands.display_command`` now returns the result of the decorated
3807
function. (Robert Collins)
3809
* LocationConfig now has a ``set_user_option(key, value)`` call to save
3810
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
3811
if needed). (Robert Collins)
3813
* Branch has two new methods, ``get_push_location`` and
3814
``set_push_location`` to respectively, get and set the push location.
3817
* ``commands.register_command`` now takes an optional flag to signal that
3818
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
3819
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
3820
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
3821
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
3822
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
3823
version. (Robert Collins)
3825
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
3826
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
3828
* ``Branch.read_working_inventory`` has moved to
3829
``WorkingTree.read_working_inventory``. This necessitated changes to
3830
``Branch.get_root_id``, and a move of ``Branch.set_inventory`` to
3831
WorkingTree as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always
3832
be obtained ``Branch.working_tree()`` will raise
3833
``errors.NoWorkingTree`` if one cannot be obtained. (Robert Collins)
3835
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
3838
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree::
3848
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch`` is now ``smart_add_tree``. (Robert Collins)
3850
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
3852
* Rename selftests to ``bzrlib.tests.test_foo``. (John A Meinel, Martin
3855
* ``bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins`` has been changed from an attribute to a
3856
query method. (Robert Collins)
3858
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
3861
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
3864
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in ``cmd_pull()``.
3867
* Branch.controlfile* logic has moved to lockablefiles.LockableFiles, which
3868
is exposed as ``Branch().control_files``. Also this has been altered with the
3869
controlfile pre/suffix replaced by simple method names like 'get' and
3870
'put'. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins).
3872
* Deprecated functions and methods can now be marked as such using the
3873
``bzrlib.symbol_versioning`` module. Marked method have their docstring
3874
updated and will issue a DeprecationWarning using the warnings module
3875
when they are used. (Robert Collins)
3877
* ``bzrlib.osutils.safe_unicode`` now exists to provide parameter coercion
3878
for functions that need unicode strings. (Robert Collins)
3885
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
3888
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
3892
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
3893
a separator, not ':'.
3896
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
3897
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
3898
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
3900
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
3901
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
3904
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
3905
has been added that suppresses all output.
3907
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
3910
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
3911
Goffredo Baroncelli.
3913
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
3914
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
3916
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
3917
a revision. (Robert Collins)
3919
* If you set ``check_signatures=require`` for a path in
3920
``~/.bazaar/branches.conf`` then bzr will invoke your
3921
``gpg_signing_command`` (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
3922
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
3924
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
3926
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
3927
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
3929
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
3930
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
3932
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
3933
output directory, if one was supplied.
3935
* If the option ``post_commit`` is set to one (or more) python function
3936
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
3937
after the commit has completed, with the branch and ``revision_id`` as
3938
parameters. (Robert Collins)
3940
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
3942
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
3943
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
3945
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
3946
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
3947
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
3949
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
3950
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
3952
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
3955
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
3957
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
3961
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
3962
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
3963
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
3965
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
3966
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
3967
related questions. (Robert Collins)
3969
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
3970
is given. (Martin Pool)
3972
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
3973
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
3974
file. (Robert Collins)
3976
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
3981
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
3982
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
3983
representation. (Martin Pool).
3985
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
3986
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
3987
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
3989
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
3992
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
3993
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
3996
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
3997
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
3998
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
3999
available, construct a ``*Config``, and use its ``signature_checking``,
4000
``username`` and ``user_email`` methods. (Robert Collins)
4002
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
4003
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
4004
import other plugins during the ``__init__`` of your plugin though, as
4005
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
4006
python path. (Robert Collins)
4008
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
4009
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
4010
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
4011
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
4013
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
4014
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
4016
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
4017
``lock_read``, ``lock_write`` and ``unlock`` methods for convenience.
4020
* Two decorators, ``needs_read_lock`` and ``needs_write_lock`` have been
4021
added to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
4022
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
4024
* ``Branch.open_containing`` now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
4025
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
4026
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
4028
* Transports can register using ``register_lazy_transport``, and they
4029
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
4031
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as ``WorkingTree.pull()``.
4032
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
4033
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
4036
* config.Config has a ``get_user_option`` call that accepts an option name.
4037
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
4038
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
4039
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
4042
* ``merge.merge_inner`` now has tempdir as an optional parameter.
4045
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
4046
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
4049
* ``WorkingTree.__del__`` has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
4050
doing what it was intended to. See ``WorkingTree.__init__`` for a comment
4051
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
4053
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
4054
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
4055
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
4057
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
4058
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
4059
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
4061
* Transports can register using ``register_lazy_transport``, and they
4062
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
4064
* ``merge_flex`` no longer calls ``conflict_handler.finalize()``, instead that
4065
is called by ``merge_inner``. This is so that the conflict count can be
4066
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
4067
of ``merge_inner``. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
4068
caller. (Robert Collins)
4070
* ``revision.revision_graph`` can handle having only partial history for
4071
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
4074
* New ``builtins.branch_files`` uses the standard ``file_list`` rules to
4075
produce a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch
4078
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
4080
* New ``bzrlib.version_info`` tuple (similar to ``sys.version_info``),
4081
which can be used by programs importing bzrlib.
4085
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
4086
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
4088
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
4089
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
4092
bzr 0.1.1 2005-10-12
4093
====================
4097
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
4098
allow directories to be listed.
4100
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
4101
upgrading branch format.
4105
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
4113
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
4114
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
4115
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
4116
high-latency connections.
4120
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
4123
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
4124
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
4126
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
4127
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
4128
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
4129
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
4131
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
4132
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
4134
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
4135
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
4137
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
4138
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
4139
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
4141
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
4142
for files with only a change to their executable status.
4143
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
4146
* HTTP tests now force off the use of ``http_proxy`` for the duration.
4147
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
4149
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
4150
different partial views of history.
4152
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
4153
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
4157
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
4158
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
4159
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
4161
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
4162
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
4165
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
4166
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
4168
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
4171
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
4172
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
4174
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
4175
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
4176
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
4177
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
4179
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
4181
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
4182
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
4185
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
4186
Contributed by Robert Collins.
4188
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
4189
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
4190
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
4195
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
4196
for your viewing pleasure.
4198
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
4199
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
4201
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
4202
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
4203
handling of such circumstances.
4205
* Remove RevisionReference class; ``Revision.parent_ids`` is now simply a
4206
list of their ids and ``parent_sha1s`` is a list of their corresponding
4207
sha1s (for old branches only at the moment.)
4209
* New method-object style interface for Commit() and Fetch().
4211
* Renamed ``Branch.last_patch()`` to ``Branch.last_revision()``, since
4212
we call them revisions not patches.
4214
* Move ``copy_branch`` to ``bzrlib.clone.copy_branch``. The destination
4215
directory is created if it doesn't exist.
4217
* Inventories now identify the files which were present by
4218
giving the revision *of that file*.
4220
* Inventory and Revision XML contains a version identifier.
4221
This must be consistent with the overall branch version
4222
but allows for more flexibility in future upgrades.
4226
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
4227
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
4229
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
4230
of tests to run, e.g. ``bzr selftest test_weave``
4233
bzr 0.0.9 2005-09-23
4234
====================
4238
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
4240
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
4243
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
4245
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
4247
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
4248
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
4252
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
4253
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
4255
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
4256
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
4257
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
4258
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
4261
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
4262
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
4266
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
4268
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
4269
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
4272
bzr 0.0.8 2005-09-20
4273
====================
4277
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
4278
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
4279
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
4280
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
4283
* Ignore ``.DS_Store`` (contains Mac metadata) by default.
4286
* If you set ``BZR_EDITOR`` in the environment, it is checked in
4287
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
4288
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
4289
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
4290
for the operating system is still tried.
4292
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
4293
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
4294
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
4299
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
4303
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
4305
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
4308
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
4314
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
4316
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
4319
bzr-0.0.7 2005-09-02
4320
====================
4324
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
4325
help with intelligent shell completion.
4327
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
4332
* Much better merge support.
4334
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
4335
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
4341
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
4342
mention revisions that are not present.
4344
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
4346
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
4348
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
4349
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
4354
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
4356
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
4357
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
4363
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
4364
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
4369
bzr-0.0.6 2005-08-18
4370
====================
4374
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
4375
``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` or ``~/.bzr.conf/plugins`` by default.
4377
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
4379
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
4380
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
4382
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
4385
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
4387
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
4390
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
4391
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
4393
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
4394
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
4395
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
4400
* Faster working tree operations.
4405
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
4406
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
4407
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
4408
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
4410
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
4411
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
4412
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
4413
``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` and ``DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH`` are then added to the
4414
standard plugins directory.
4416
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
4417
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
4418
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
4419
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
4421
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
4422
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
4424
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
4427
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
4428
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
4429
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
4431
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
4432
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
4434
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
4435
line options must come before the command name because they
4436
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
4437
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
4440
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
4442
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
4443
is available with ``--short``.
4448
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
4451
bzr-0.0.5 2005-06-15
4452
=====================
4456
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
4457
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
4459
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
4460
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
4461
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
4462
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
4464
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
4465
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
4466
with the ``--forward`` option.
4468
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
4469
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
4475
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
4476
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
4478
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
4480
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
4481
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
4483
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
4485
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
4486
either read or write mode.
4488
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
4490
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
4493
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
4495
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
4496
suggested by LarstiQ.
4498
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
4499
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
4501
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
4504
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
4505
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
4507
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
4508
haven't changed since the previous time.
4510
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
4511
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
4513
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
4515
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
4517
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
4518
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
4520
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
4521
options through to an external GNU diff.
4523
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
4526
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
4532
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
4533
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
4535
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
4541
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
4542
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
4545
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
4546
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
4548
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
4549
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
4551
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
4552
under a different version.
4554
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
4559
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
4561
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
4562
Scott James Remnant.
4564
* Better help messages for many commands.
4566
* Expose ``bzrlib.open_tracefile()`` to start the tracefile; until
4567
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
4569
* New internal function ``find_touching_revisions()`` and hidden
4570
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
4572
* Simpler and faster ``compare_inventories()`` function.
4574
* ``bzrlib.open_tracefile()`` takes a tracefilename parameter.
4576
* New AtomicFile class.
