IN DEVELOPMENT
8
--------------
9
10
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
11
12
CHANGES:
13
14
* A new repository format 'development' has been added. This format will
15
represent the latest 'in-progress' format that the bzr developers are
16
interested in getting early-adopter testing and feedback on.
17
``doc/developers/development-repo.txt`` has detailed information.
18
(Robert Collins)
19
20
FEATURES:
21
22
IMPROVEMENTS:
23
24
* Speed up operations that look at the revision graph (such as 'bzr log').
25
``KnitPackRepositor.get_revision_graph`` uses ``Graph.iter_ancestry`` to
26
extract the revision history. This allows filtering ghosts as step
27
instead of needing to peek ahead all the time. (John Arbash Meinel)
28
29
BUGFIXES:
30
31
* Include quick-start-summary.svg file to python-based installer(s)
32
for Windows (#192924, Alexander Belchenko)
33
34
API BREAKS:
35
36
TESTING:
37
38
INTERNALS:
39
40
* ``Repository.get_revision_graph_with_ghosts`` and
41
``bzrlib.revision.common_ancestor`` have been deprecated.
42
(John Arbash Meinel)
43
44
* ``Graph.iter_ancestry`` returns the ancestry of revision ids. Similar to
45
``Repository.get_revision_graph()`` except it includes ghosts and you can
46
stop part-way through. (John Arbash Meinel)
47
48
* New remote method ``RemoteBzrDir.find_repositoryV2`` adding support for
49
detecting external lookup support on remote repositories. This method is
50
now attempted first when lookup up repositories, leading to an extra
51
round trip on older bzr smart servers. (Robert Collins)
52
53
* Repository formats have a new supported-feature attribute
54
``supports_external_lookups`` used to indicate repositories which support
55
falling back to other repositories when they have partial data.
56
(Robert Collins)
57
58
* The bzrdir format registry now accepts an ``alias`` keyword to
59
register_metadir, used to indicate that a format name is an alias for
60
some other format and thus should not be reported when describing the
61
format. (Robert Collins)
62
63
64
bzr 1.2rc1 (not released yet)
65
-----------------------------
66
67
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
68
69
* Fetching via the smart protocol may need to reconnect once during a fetch
70
if the remote server is running Bazaar 1.1 or earlier, because the client
71
attempts to use more efficient requests that confuse older servers. You
72
may be required to re-enter a password or passphrase when this happens.
73
This won't happen if the server is upgraded to Bazaar 1.2.
74
(Andrew Bennetts)
75
76
CHANGES:
77
78
* Fetching via bzr+ssh will no longer fill ghosts by default (this is
79
consistent with pack-0.92 fetching over SFTP). (Robert Collins)
80
81
* Formatting of ``bzr plugins`` output is changed to be more human-
82
friendly. Full path of plugins locations will be shown only with
83
``--verbose`` command-line option. (Alexander Belchenko)
84
85
* ``merge`` now prefers to use the submit branch, but will fall back to
86
parent branch. For many users, this has no effect. But some users who
87
pull and merge on the same branch will notice a change. This change
88
makes it easier to work on a branch on two different machines, pulling
89
between the machines, while merging from the upstream.
90
``merge --remember`` can now be used to set the submit_branch.
91
(Aaron Bentley)
92
93
FEATURES:
94
95
* ``merge --preview`` produces a diff of the changes merge would make,
96
but does not actually perform the merge. (Aaron Bentley)
97
98
* New smart method ``Repository.get_parent_map`` for getting revision
99
parent data. This returns additional parent information topologically
100
adjacent to the requested data to reduce round trip latency impacts.
101
(Robert Collins)
102
103
* New smart method, ``Repository.stream_revisions_chunked``, for fetching
104
revision data that streams revision data via a chunked encoding. This
105
avoids buffering large amounts of revision data on the server and on the
106
client, and sends less data to the server to request the revisions.
107
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, #178353)
108
109
* The launchpad plugin now handles lp urls of the form
110
``lp://staging/``, ``lp://demo/``, ``lp://dev/`` to use the appropriate
111
launchpad instance to do the resolution of the branch identities.
112
This is primarily of use to Launchpad developers, but can also
113
be used by other users who want to try out Launchpad as
114
a branch location without messing up their public Launchpad
115
account. Branches that are pushed to the staging environment
116
have an expected lifetime of one day. (Tim Penhey)
117
118
IMPROVEMENTS:
119
120
* Creating a new branch no longer tries to read the entire revision-history
121
unnecessarily over smart server operations. (Robert Collins)
122
123
* Fetching between different repository formats with compatible models now
124
takes advantage of the smart method to stream revisions. (Andrew Bennetts)
125
126
* The ``--coverage`` option is now global, rather specific to ``bzr
127
selftest``. (Andrew Bennetts)
128
129
* The ``register-branch`` command will now use the public url of the branch
130
containing the current directory, if one has been set and no explicit
131
branch is provided. (Robert Collins)
132
133
* Tweak the ``reannotate`` code path to optimize the 2-parent case.
134
Speeds up ``bzr annotate`` with a pack repository by approx 3:2.
135
(John Arbash Meinel)
136
137
BUGFIXES:
138
139
* Calculate remote path relative to the shared medium in _SmartClient. This
140
is related to the problem in bug #124089. (Andrew Bennetts)
141
142
* Cleanly handle connection errors in smart protocol version two, the same
143
way as they are handled by version one. (Andrew Bennetts)
144
145
* Clearer error when ``version-info --custom`` is used without
146
``--template`` (Lukáš Lalinský)
147
148
* List possible values for BZR_SSH environment variable in env-variables
149
help topic. (Alexander Belchenko, #181842)
150
151
* New methods ``push_log_file`` and ``pop_log_file`` to intercept messages:
152
popping the log redirection now precisely restores the previous state,
153
which makes it easier to use bzr log output from other programs.
154
TestCaseInTempDir no longer depends on a log redirection being established
155
by the test framework, which lets bzr tests cleanly run from a normal
156
unittest runner.
157
(#124153, #124849, Martin Pool, Jonathan Lange)
158
159
* ``pull --quiet`` is now more quiet, in particular a message is no longer
160
printed when the remembered pull location is used. (James Westby,
161
#185907)
162
163
* ``reconfigure`` can safely be interrupted while fetching.
164
(Aaron Bentley, #179316)
165
166
* ``reconfigure`` preserves tags when converting to and from lightweight
167
checkouts. (Aaron Bentley, #182040)
168
169
* Stop polluting /tmp when running selftest.
170
(Vincent Ladeuil, #123623)
171
172
* Switch from NFKC => NFC for normalization checks. NFC allows a few
173
more characters which should be considered valid.
174
(John Arbash Meinel, #185458)
175
176
* The launchpad plugin now uses the ``edge`` xmlrpc server to avoid
177
interacting badly with a bug on the launchpad side. (Robert Collins)
178
179
* Unknown hostnames when connecting to a ``bzr://`` URL no longer cause
180
tracebacks. (Andrew Bennetts, #182849)
181
182
API BREAKS:
183
184
* Classes implementing Merge types like Merge3Merger must now accept (and
185
honour) a do_merge flag in their constructor. (Aaron Bentley)
186
187
* ``Repository.add_inventory`` and ``add_revision`` now require the caller
188
to previously take a write lock (and start a write group.)
189
(Martin Pool)
190
191
TESTING:
192
193
* selftest now accepts --load-list <file> to load a test id list. This
194
speeds up running the test suite on a limited set of tests.
195
(Vincent Ladeuil)
196
197
INTERNALS:
198
199
* Add a new method ``get_result`` to graph search objects. The resulting
200
``SearchResult`` can be used to recreate the search later, which will
201
be useful in reducing network traffic. (Robert Collins)
202
203
* Use convenience function to check whether two repository handles
204
are referring to the same repository in ``Repository.get_graph``.
205
(Jelmer Vernooij, #187162)
206
207
* Fetching now passes the find_ghosts flag through to the
208
``InterRepository.missing_revision_ids`` call consistently for all
209
repository types. This will enable faster missing revision discovery with
210
bzr+ssh. (Robert Collins)
211
212
* Fix error handling in Repository.insert_data_stream. (Lukas Lalinsky)
213
214
* ``InterRepository.missing_revision_ids`` is now deprecated in favour of
215
``InterRepository.search_missing_revision_ids`` which returns a
216
``bzrlib.graph.SearchResult`` suitable for making requests from the smart
217
server. (Robert Collins)
218
219
* New error ``NoPublicBranch`` for commands that need a public branch to
220
operate. (Robert Collins)
221
222
* New method ``iter_inventories`` on Repository for access to many
223
inventories. This is primarily used by the ``revision_trees`` method, as
224
direct access to inventories is discouraged. (Robert Collins)
225
226
* New method ``next_with_ghosts`` on the Graph breadth-first-search objects
227
which will split out ghosts and present parents into two separate sets,
228
useful for code which needs to be aware of ghosts (e.g. fetching data
229
cares about ghosts during revision selection). (Robert Collins)
230
231
* Record a timestamp against each mutter to the trace file, relative to the
232
first import of bzrlib. (Andrew Bennetts)
233
234
* ``Repository.get_data_stream`` is now deprecated in favour of
235
``Repository.get_data_stream_for_search`` which allows less network
236
traffic when requesting data streams over a smart server. (Robert Collins)
237
238
* ``RemoteBzrDir._get_tree_branch`` no longer triggers ``_ensure_real``,
239
removing one round trip on many network operations. (Robert Collins)
240
241
* RemoteTransport's ``recommended_page_size`` method now returns 64k, like
242
SFTPTransport and HttpTransportBase. (Andrew Bennetts)
243
244
* Repository has a new method ``has_revisions`` which signals the presence
245
of many revisions by returning a set of the revisions listed which are
246
present. This can be done by index queries without reading data for parent
247
revision names etc. (Robert Collins)
248
249
250
bzr 1.1 2008-01-15
251
------------------
252
253
(no changes from 1.1rc1)
254
255
bzr 1.1rc1 2008-01-05
256
---------------------
257
258
CHANGES:
259
260
* Dotted revision numbers have been revised. Instead of growing longer with
261
nested branches the branch number just increases. (eg instead of 1.1.1.1.1
262
we now report 1.2.1.) This helps scale long lived branches which have many
263
feature branches merged between them. (John Arbash Meinel)
264
265
* The syntax ``bzr diff branch1 branch2`` is no longer supported.
266
Use ``bzr diff branch1 --new branch2`` instead. This change has
267
been made to remove the ambiguity where ``branch2`` is in fact a
268
specific file to diff within ``branch1``.
269
270
FEATURES:
271
272
* New option to use custom template-based formats in ``bzr version-info``.
273
(Lukáš Lalinský)
274
275
* diff '--using' allows an external diff tool to be used for files.
276
(Aaron Bentley)
277
278
* New "lca" merge-type for fast everyday merging that also supports
279
criss-cross merges. (Aaron Bentley)
280
281
IMPROVEMENTS:
282
283
* ``annotate`` now doesn't require a working tree. (Lukáš Lalinský,
284
#90049)
285
286
* ``branch`` and ``checkout`` can now use files from a working tree to
287
to speed up the process. For checkout, this requires the new
288
--files-from flag. (Aaron Bentley)
289
290
* ``bzr diff`` now sorts files in alphabetical order. (Aaron Bentley)
291
292
* ``bzr diff`` now works on branches without working trees. Tree-less
293
branches can also be compared to each other and to working trees using
294
the new diff options ``--old`` and ``--new``. Diffing between branches,
295
with or without trees, now supports specific file filtering as well.
296
(Ian Clatworthy, #6700)
297
298
* ``bzr pack`` now orders revision texts in topological order, with newest
299
at the start of the file, promoting linear reads for ``bzr log`` and the
300
like. This partially fixes #154129. (Robert Collins)
301
302
* Merge directives now fetch prerequisites from the target branch if
303
needed. (Aaron Bentley)
304
305
* pycurl now handles digest authentication.
306
(Vincent Ladeuil)
307
308
* ``reconfigure`` can now convert from repositories. (Aaron Bentley)
309
310
* ``-l`` is now a short form for ``--limit`` in ``log``. (Matt Nordhoff)
311
312
* ``merge`` now warns when merge directives cause cherrypicks.
313
(Aaron Bentley)
314
315
* ``split`` now supported, to enable splitting large trees into smaller
316
pieces. (Aaron Bentley)
317
318
BUGFIXES:
319
320
* Avoid AttributeError when unlocking a pack repository when an error occurs.
321
(Martin Pool, #180208)
322
323
* Better handle short reads when processing multiple range requests.
324
(Vincent Ladeuil, #179368)
325
326
* build_tree acceleration uses the correct path when a file has been moved.
327
(Aaron Bentley)
328
329
* ``commit`` now succeeds when a checkout and its master branch share a
330
repository. (Aaron Bentley, #177592)
331
332
* Fixed error reporting of unsupported timezone format in
333
``log --timezone``. (Lukáš Lalinský, #178722)
334
335
* Fixed Unicode encoding error in ``ignored`` when the output is
336
redirected to a pipe. (Lukáš Lalinský)
337
338
* Fix traceback when sending large response bodies over the smart protocol
339
on Windows. (Andrew Bennetts, #115781)
340
341
* Fix ``urlutils.relative_url`` for the case of two ``file:///`` URLs
342
pointed to different logical drives on Windows.
343
(Alexander Belchenko, #90847)
344
345
* HTTP test servers are now compatible with the http protocol version 1.1.
346
(Vincent Ladeuil, #175524)
347
348
* _KnitParentsProvider.get_parent_map now handles requests for ghosts
349
correctly, instead of erroring or attributing incorrect parents to ghosts.
350
(Aaron Bentley)
351
352
* ``merge --weave --uncommitted`` now works. (Aaron Bentley)
353
354
* pycurl authentication handling was broken and incomplete. Fix handling of
355
user:pass embedded in the urls.
356
(Vincent Ladeuil, #177643)
357
358
* Files inside non-directories are now handled like other conflict types.
359
(Aaron Bentley, #177390)
360
361
* ``reconfigure`` is able to convert trees into lightweight checkouts.
362
(Aaron Bentley)
363
364
* Reduce lockdir timeout to 0 when running ``bzr serve``. (Andrew Bennetts,
365
#148087)
366
367
* Test that the old ``version_info_format`` functions still work, even
368
though they are deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel, ShenMaq, #177872)
369
370
* Transform failures no longer cause ImmortalLimbo errors (Aaron Bentley,
371
#137681)
372
373
* ``uncommit`` works even when the commit messages of revisions to be
374
removed use characters not supported in the terminal encoding.
375
(Aaron Bentley)
376
377
* When dumb http servers return whole files instead of the requested ranges,
378
read the remaining bytes by chunks to avoid overflowing network buffers.
379
(Vincent Ladeuil, #175886)
380
381
DOCUMENTATION:
382
383
* Minor tweaks made to the bug tracker integration documentation.
384
(Ian Clatworthy)
385
386
* Reference material has now be moved out of the User Guide and added
387
to the User Reference. The User Reference has gained 4 sections as
388
a result: Authenication Settings, Configuration Settings, Conflicts
389
and Hooks. All help topics are now dumped into text format in the
390
doc/en/user-reference directory for those who like browsing that
391
information in their editor. (Ian Clatworthy)
392
393
* *Using Bazaar with Launchpad* tutorial added. (Ian Clatworthy)
394
395
INTERNALS:
396
397
* find_* methods available for BzrDirs, Branches and WorkingTrees.
398
(Aaron Bentley)
399
400
* Help topics can now be loaded from files.
401
(Ian Clatworthy, Alexander Belchenko)
402
403
* get_parent_map now always provides tuples as its output. (Aaron Bentley)
404
405
* Parent Providers should now implement ``get_parent_map`` returning a
406
dictionary instead of ``get_parents`` returning a list.
407
``Graph.get_parents`` is now deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel,
408
Robert Collins)
409
410
* Patience Diff now supports arbitrary python objects, as long as they
411
support ``hash()``. (John Arbash Meinel)
412
413
* Reduce selftest overhead to establish test names by memoization.
414
(Vincent Ladeuil)
415
416
API BREAKS:
417
418
TESTING:
419
420
* Modules can now customise their tests by defining a ``load_tests``
421
attribute. ``pydoc bzrlib.tests.TestUtil.TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule``
422
for the documentation on this attribute. (Robert Collins)
423
424
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.condition_id_re`` which helps
425
filter tests based on a regular expression search on the tests id.
426
(Robert Collins)
427
428
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.condition_isinstance`` which helps
429
filter tests based on class. (Robert Collins)
430
431
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.exclude_suite_by_condition`` which
432
generalises the ``exclude_suite_by_re`` function. (Robert Collins)
433
434
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.filter_suite_by_condition`` which
435
generalises the ``filter_suite_by_re`` function. (Robert Collins)
436
437
* New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.exclude_tests_by_re`` which gives a new
438
TestSuite that does not contain tests from the input that matched a
439
regular expression. (Robert Collins)
440
441
* New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.randomize_suite`` which returns a
442
randomized copy of the input suite. (Robert Collins)
443
444
* New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.split_suite_by_re`` which splits a test
445
suite into two according to a regular expression. (Robert Collins)
446
447
* Parametrize all http tests for the transport implementations, the http
448
protocol versions (1.0 and 1.1) and the authentication schemes.
449
(Vincent Ladeuil)
450
451
* The ``exclude_pattern`` and ``random_order`` parameters to the function
452
``bzrlib.tests.filter_suite_by_re`` have been deprecated. (Robert Collins)
453
454
* The method ``bzrlib.tests.sort_suite_by_re`` has been deprecated. It is
455
replaced by the new helper methods added in this release. (Robert Collins)

BUGFIXES:
486
487
* Fix Makefile rules for doc generation. (Ian Clatworthy, #175207)
488
489
* Give more feedback during long http downloads by making readv deliver data
490
as it arrives for urllib, and issue more requests for pycurl. High latency
491
networks are better handled by urllib, the pycurl implementation give more
492
feedback but also incur more latency.
493
(Vincent Ladeuil, #173010)
494
495
* Implement _make_parents_provider on RemoteRepository, allowing generating
496
bundles against branches on a smart server. (Andrew Bennetts, #147836)

INTERNALS:
506
507
* readv urllib http implementation is now a real iterator above the
508
underlying socket and deliver data as soon as it arrives. 'get' still
509
wraps its output in a StringIO.

IMPROVEMENTS:
517
518
* Added a --coverage option to selftest. (Andrew Bennetts)
519
520
* Annotate merge (merge-type=weave) now supports cherrypicking.
521
(Aaron Bentley)
522
523
* ``bzr commit`` now doesn't print the revision number twice. (Matt
524
Nordhoff, #172612)
525
526
* New configuration option ``bugtracker_<tracker_abbrevation>_url`` to
527
define locations of bug trackers that are not directly supported by
528
bzr or a plugin. The URL will be treated as a template and ``{id}``
529
placeholders will be replaced by specific bug IDs. (Lukáš Lalinský)
530
531
* Support logging single merge revisions with short and line log formatters.
532
(Kent Gibson)
533
534
* User Guide enhanced with suggested readability improvements from
535
Matt Revell and corrections from John Arbash Meinel. (Ian Clatworthy)
536
537
* Quick Start Guide renamed to Quick Start Card, moved down in
538
the catalog, provided in pdf and png format and updated to refer
539
to ``send`` instead of ``bundle``. (Ian Clatworthy, #165080)
540
541
* ``switch`` can now be used on heavyweight checkouts as well as
542
lightweight ones. After switching a heavyweight checkout, the
543
local branch is a mirror/cache of the new bound branch and
544
uncommitted changes in the working tree are merged. As a safety
545
check, if there are local commits in a checkout which have not
546
been committed to the previously bound branch, then ``switch``
547
fails unless the ``--force`` option is given. This option is
548
now also required if the branch a lightweight checkout is pointing
549
to has been moved. (Ian Clatworthy)
550
551
INTERNALS:
552
553
* New -Dhttp debug option reports http connections, requests and responses.
554
(Vincent Ladeuil)
555
556
* New -Dmerge debug option, which emits merge plans for merge-type=weave.
557
558
BUGFIXES:
559
560
* Better error message when running ``bzr cat`` on a non-existant branch.
561
(Lukáš Lalinský, #133782)
562
563
* Catch OSError 17 (file exists) in final phase of tree transform and show
564
filename to user.
565
(Alexander Belchenko, #111758)
566
567
* Catch ShortReadvErrors while using pycurl. Also make readv more robust by
568
allowing multiple GET requests to be issued if too many ranges are
569
required.
570
(Vincent Ladeuil, #172701)
571
572
* Check for missing basis texts when fetching from packs to packs.
573
(John Arbash Meinel, #165290)
574
575
* Fall back to showing e-mail in ``log --short/--line`` if the
576
committer/author has only e-mail. (Lukáš Lalinský, #157026)
577
578
API BREAKS:
579
580
* Deprecate not passing a ``location`` argument to commit reporters'
581
``started`` methods. (Matt Nordhoff)

bzr 1.0rc1 2007-11-30
585
---------------------
586
587
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
588
589
* The default repository format is now ``pack-0.92``. This
590
default is used when creating new repositories with ``init`` and
591
``init-repo``, and when branching over bzr+ssh or bzr+hpss.
592
(See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164626)
593
594
This format can be read and written by Bazaar 0.92 and later, and
595
data can be transferred to and from older formats.
596
597
To upgrade, please reconcile your repository (``bzr reconcile``), and then
598
upgrade (``bzr upgrade``).
599
600
``pack-0.92`` offers substantially better scaling and performance than the
601
previous knits format. Some operations are slower where the code already
602
had bad scaling characteristics under knits, the pack format makes such
603
operations more visible as part of being more scalable overall. We will
604
correct such operations over the coming releases and encourage the filing
605
of bugs on any operation which you observe to be slower in a packs
606
repository. One particular case that we do not intend to fix is pulling
607
data from a pack repository into a knit repository over a high latency
608
link; downgrading such data requires reinsertion of the file texts, and
609
this is a classic space/time tradeoff. The current implementation is
610
conservative on memory usage because we need to support converting data
611
from any tree without problems.
612
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool, #164476)
613
614
CHANGES:
615
616
* Disable detection of plink.exe as possible ssh vendor. Plink vendor
617
still available if user selects it explicitly with BZR_SSH environment
618
variable. (Alexander Belchenko, workaround for bug #107593)
619
620
* The pack format is now accessible as "pack-0.92", or "pack-0.92-subtree"
621
to enable the subtree functions (for example, for bzr-svn).
622
See http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/developer/packrepo.html
623
(Martin Pool)
624
625
FEATURES:
626
627
* New ``authentication.conf`` file holding the password or other credentials
628
for remote servers. This can be used for ssh, sftp, smtp and other
629
supported transports.
630
(Vincent Ladeuil)
631
632
* New rich-root and rich-root-pack formats, recording the same data about
633
tree roots that's recorded for all other directories.
634
(Aaron Bentley, #164639)
635
636
* ``pack-0.92`` repositories can now be reconciled.
637
(Robert Collins, #154173)
638
639
* ``switch`` command added for changing the branch a lightweight checkout
640
is associated with and updating the tree to reflect the latest content
641
accordingly. This command was previously part of the BzrTools plug-in.
642
(Ian Clatworthy, Aaron Bentley, David Allouche)
643
644
* ``reconfigure`` command can now convert branches, trees, or checkouts to
645
lightweight checkouts. (Aaron Bentley)
646
647
PERFORMANCE:
648
649
* Commit updates the state of the working tree via a delta rather than
650
supplying entirely new basis trees. For commit of a single specified file
651
this reduces the wall clock time for commit by roughly a 30%.
652
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
653
654
* Commit with many automatically found deleted paths no longer performs
655
linear scanning for the children of those paths during inventory
656
iteration. This should fix commit performance blowing out when many such
657
paths occur during commit. (Robert Collins, #156491)
658
659
* Fetch with pack repositories will no longer read the entire history graph.
660
(Robert Collins, #88319)
661
662
* Revert takes out an appropriate lock when reverting to a basis tree, and
663
does not read the basis inventory twice. (Robert Collins)
664
665
* Diff does not require an inventory to be generated on dirstate trees.
666
(Aaron Bentley, #149254)
667
668
* New annotate merge (--merge-type=weave) implementation is fast on
669
versionedfiles withough cached annotations, e.g. pack-0.92.
670
(Aaron Bentley)
671
672
IMPROVEMENTS:
673
674
* ``bzr merge`` now warns when it encounters a criss-cross merge.
675
(Aaron Bentley)
676
677
* ``bzr send`` now doesn't require the target e-mail address to be
678
specified on the command line if an interactive e-mail client is used.
679
(Lukáš Lalinský)
680
681
* ``bzr tags`` now prints the revision number for each tag, instead of
682
the revision id, unless --show-ids is passed. In addition, tags can be
683
sorted chronologically instead of lexicographically with --sort=time.
684
(Adeodato Simó, #120231)
685
686
* Windows standalone version of bzr is able to load system-wide plugins from
687
"plugins" subdirectory in installation directory. In addition standalone
688
installer write to the registry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Bazaar) useful info
689
about paths and bzr version. (Alexander Belchenko, #129298)

696
(Robert Collins, #157789, #159147)
697
698
* Branching from a branch via smart server now preserves the repository
699
format. (Andrew Bennetts, #164626)
700
701
* ``commit`` is now able to invoke an external editor in a non-ascii
702
directory. (Daniel Watkins, #84043)
703
704
* Catch connection errors for ftp.
705
(Vincent Ladeuil, #164567)
706
707
* ``check`` no longer reports spurious unreferenced text versions.
708
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, #162931, #165071)
709
710
* Conflicts are now resolved recursively by ``revert``.
711
(Aaron Bentley, #102739)
712
713
* Detect invalid transport reuse attempts by catching invalid URLs.
714
(Vincent Ladeuil, #161819)
715
716
* Deleting a file without removing it shows a correct diff, not a traceback.
717
(Aaron Bentley)
718
719
* Do no use timeout in HttpServer anymore.
720
(Vincent Ladeuil, #158972).
721
722
* Don't catch the exceptions related to the http pipeline status before
723
retrying an http request or some programming errors may be masked.
724
(Vincent Ladeuil, #160012)
725
726
* Fix ``bzr rm`` to not delete modified and ignored files.
727
(Lukáš Lalinský, #172598)
728
729
* Fix exception when revisionspec contains merge revisons but log
730
formatter doesn't support merge revisions. (Kent Gibson, #148908)
731
732
* Fix exception when ScopeReplacer is assigned to before any members have
733
been retrieved. (Aaron Bentley)
734
735
* Fix multiple connections during checkout --lightweight.
736
(Vincent Ladeuil, #159150)
737
738
* Fix possible error in insert_data_stream when copying between
739
pack repositories over bzr+ssh or bzr+http.
740
KnitVersionedFile.get_data_stream now makes sure that requested
741
compression parents are sent before any delta hunks that depend
742
on them.
743
(Martin Pool, #164637)
744
745
* Fix typo in limiting offsets coalescing for http, leading to
746
whole files being downloaded instead of parts.
747
(Vincent Ladeuil, #165061)
748
749
* FTP server errors don't error in the error handling code.
750
(Robert Collins, #161240)
751
752
* Give a clearer message when a pull fails because the source needs
753
to be reconciled.
754
(Martin Pool, #164443)
755
756
* It is clearer when a plugin cannot be loaded because of its name, and a
757
suggestion for an acceptable name is given. (Daniel Watkins, #103023)
758
759
* Leave port as None in transport objects if user doesn't
760
specify a port in urls.
761
(vincent Ladeuil, #150860)
762
763
* Make sure Repository.fetch(self) is properly a no-op for all
764
Repository implementations. (John Arbash Meinel, #158333)
765
766
* Mark .bzr directories as "hidden" on Windows.
767
(Alexander Belchenko, #71147)
768
769
* ``merge --uncommitted`` can now operate on a single file.
770
(Aaron Bentley, Lukáš Lalinský, #136890)
771
772
* Obsolete packs are now cleaned up by pack and autopack operations.
773
(Robert Collins, #153789)
774
775
* Operations pulling data from a smart server where the underlying
776
repositories are not both annotated/both unannotated will now work.
777
(Robert Collins, #165304).
778
779
* Reconcile now shows progress bars. (Robert Collins, #159351)
780
781
* ``RemoteBranch`` was not initializing ``self._revision_id_to_revno_map``
782
properly. (John Arbash Meinel, #162486)
783
784
* Removing an already-removed file reports the file does not exist. (Daniel
785
Watkins, #152811)
786
787
* Rename on Windows is able to change filename case.
788
(Alexander Belchenko, #77740)
789
790
* Return error instead of a traceback for ``bzr log -r0``.
791
(Kent Gibson, #133751)
792
793
* Return error instead of a traceback when bzr is unable to create
794
symlink on some platforms (e.g. on Windows).
795
(Alexander Belchenko, workaround for #81689)
796
797
* Revert doesn't crash when restoring a single file from a deleted
798
directory. (Aaron Bentley)
799
800
* Stderr output via logging mechanism now goes through encoded wrapper
801
and no more uses utf-8, but terminal encoding instead. So all unicode
802
strings now should be readable in non-utf-8 terminal.
803
(Alexander Belchenko, #54173)
804
805
* The error message when ``move --after`` should be used makes how to do so
806
clearer. (Daniel Watkins, #85237)
807
808
* Unicode-safe output from ``bzr info``. The output will be encoded
809
using the terminal encoding and unrepresentable characters will be
810
replaced by '?'. (Lukáš Lalinský, #151844)
811
812
* Working trees are no longer created when pushing into a local no-trees
813
repo. (Daniel Watkins, #50582)
814
815
* Upgrade util/configobj to version 4.4.0.
816
(Vincent Ladeuil, #151208).
817
818
* Wrap medusa ftp test server as an FTPServer feature.
819
(Vincent Ladeuil, #157752)
820
821
API BREAKS:
822
823
* ``osutils.backup_file`` is deprecated. Actually it's not used in bzrlib
824
during very long time. (Alexander Belchenko)
825
826
* The return value of
827
``VersionedFile.iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` has been
828
changed. Previously it was an iterator of lines, now it is an iterator of
829
(line, version_id) tuples. This change has been made to aid reconcile and
830
fetch operations. (Robert Collins)
831
832
* ``bzrlib.repository.get_versioned_file_checker`` is now private.
833
(Robert Collins)
834
835
* The Repository format registry default has been removed; it was previously
836
obsoleted by the bzrdir format default, which implies a default repository
837
format.
838
(Martin Pool)
839
840
INTERNALS:
841
842
* Added ``ContainerSerialiser`` and ``ContainerPushParser`` to
843
``bzrlib.pack``. These classes provide more convenient APIs for generating
844
and parsing containers from streams rather than from files. (Andrew
845
Bennetts)
846
847
* New module ``lru_cache`` providing a cache for use by tasks that need
848
semi-random access to large amounts of data. (John A Meinel)
849
850
* InventoryEntry.diff is now deprecated. Please use diff.DiffTree instead.

866
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
867
868
CHANGES:
869
870
* ``bzr`` now returns exit code 4 if an internal error occurred, and
871
3 if a normal error occurred. (Martin Pool)
872
873
* ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently correct some
874
repository index errors that occured as a result of the Weave disk format.
875
Instead the ``reconcile`` command needs to be run to correct those
876
problems if they exist (and it has been able to fix most such problems
877
since bzr 0.8). Some new problems have been identified during this release
878
and you should run ``bzr check`` once on every repository to see if you
879
need to reconcile. If you cannot ``pull`` or ``merge`` from a remote
880
repository due to mismatched parent errors - a symptom of index errors -
881
you should simply take a full copy of that remote repository to a clean
882
directory outside any local repositories, then run reconcile on it, and
883
finally pull from it locally. (And naturally email the repositories owner
884
to ask them to upgrade and run reconcile).
885
(Robert Collins)
886
887
FEATURES:
888
889
* New ``knitpack-experimental`` repository format. This is interoperable with
890
the ``dirstate-tags`` format but uses a smarter storage design that greatly
891
speeds up many operations, both local and remote. This new format can be
892
used as an option to the ``init``, ``init-repository`` and ``upgrade``
893
commands. See http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/0.92/developers/knitpack.html
894
for further details. (Robert Collins)
895
896
* For users of bzr-svn (and those testing the prototype subtree support) that
897
wish to try packs, a new ``knitpack-subtree-experimental`` format has also
898
been added. This is interoperable with the ``dirstate-subtrees`` format.
899
(Robert Collins)
900
901
* New ``reconfigure`` command. (Aaron Bentley)
902
903
* New ``revert --forget-merges`` command, which removes the record of a pending
904
merge without affecting the working tree contents. (Martin Pool)
905
906
* New ``bzr_remote_path`` configuration variable allows finer control of
907
remote bzr locations than BZR_REMOTE_PATH environment variable.
908
(Aaron Bentley)
909
910
* New ``launchpad-login`` command to tell Bazaar your Launchpad
911
user ID. This can then be used by other functions of the
912
Launchpad plugin. (James Henstridge)
913
914
PERFORMANCE:
915
916
* Commit in quiet mode is now slightly faster as the information to
917
output is no longer calculated. (Ian Clatworthy)
918
919
* Commit no longer checks for new text keys during insertion when the
920
revision id was deterministically unique. (Robert Collins)
921
922
* Committing a change which is not a merge and does not change the number of
923
files in the tree is faster by utilising the data about whether files are
924
changed to determine if the tree is unchanged rather than recalculating
925
it at the end of the commit process. (Robert Collins)
926
927
* Inventory serialisation no longer double-sha's the content.
928
(Robert Collins)
929
930
* Knit text reconstruction now avoids making copies of the lines list for
931
interim texts when building a single text. The new ``apply_delta`` method
932
on ``KnitContent`` aids this by allowing modification of the revision id
933
such objects represent. (Robert Collins)
934
935
* Pack indices are now partially parsed for specific key lookup using a
936
bisection approach. (Robert Collins)
937
938
* Partial commits are now approximately 40% faster by walking over the
939
unselected current tree more efficiently. (Robert Collins)
940
941
* XML inventory serialisation takes 20% less time while being stricter about
942
the contents. (Robert Collins)
943
944
* Graph ``heads()`` queries have been fixed to no longer access all history
945
unnecessarily. (Robert Collins)
946
947
IMPROVEMENTS:
948
949
* ``bzr+https://`` smart server across https now supported.
950
(John Ferlito, Martin Pool, #128456)
951
952
* Mutt is now a supported mail client; set ``mail_client=mutt`` in your
953
bazaar.conf and ``send`` will use mutt. (Keir Mierle)
954
955
* New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``merge`` command for cherrypicking
956
changes from one revision. (Alexander Belchenko, #141368)
957
958
* Show encodings, locale and list of plugins in the traceback message.
959
(Martin Pool, #63894)
960
961
* Experimental directory formats can now be marked with
962
``experimental = True`` during registration. (Ian Clatworthy)

966
* New *Bazaar in Five Minutes* guide. (Matthew Revell)
967
968
* The hooks reference documentation is now converted to html as expected.
969
(Ian Clatworthy)
970
971
BUG FIXES:
972
973
* Connection error reporting for the smart server has been fixed to
974
display a user friendly message instead of a traceback.
975
(Ian Clatworthy, #115601)
976
977
* Make sure to use ``O_BINARY`` when opening files to check their
978
sha1sum. (Alexander Belchenko, John Arbash Meinel, #153493)
979
980
* Fix a problem with Win32 handling of the executable bit.
981
(John Arbash Meinel, #149113)
982
983
* ``bzr+ssh://`` and ``sftp://`` URLs that do not specify ports explicitly
984
no longer assume that means port 22. This allows people using OpenSSH to
985
override the default port in their ``~/.ssh/config`` if they wish. This
986
fixes a bug introduced in bzr 0.91. (Andrew Bennetts, #146715)
987
988
* Commands reporting exceptions can now be profiled and still have their
989
data correctly dumped to a file. For example, a ``bzr commit`` with
990
no changes still reports the operation as pointless but doing so no
991
longer throws away the profiling data if this command is run with
992
``--lsprof-file callgrind.out.ci`` say. (Ian Clatworthy)
993
994
* Fallback to ftp when paramiko is not installed and sftp can't be used for
995
``tests/commands`` so that the test suite is still usable without
996
paramiko.
997
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59150)
998
999
* Fix commit ordering in corner case. (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
1000
1001
* Fix long standing bug in partial commit when there are renames
1002
left in tree. (Robert Collins, #140419)
1003
1004
* Fix selftest semi-random noise during http related tests.
1005
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140614)
1006
1007
* Fix typo in ftp.py making the reconnection fail on temporary errors.
1008
(Vincent Ladeuil, #154259)
1009
1010
* Fix failing test by comparing real paths to cover the case where the TMPDIR
1011
contains a symbolic link.
1012
(Vincent Ladeuil, #141382).
1013
1014
* Fix log against smart server branches that don't support tags.
1015
(James Westby, #140615)
1016
1017
* Fix pycurl http implementation by defining error codes from
1018
pycurl instead of relying on an old curl definition.
1019
(Vincent Ladeuil, #147530)
1020
1021
* Fix 'unprintable error' message when displaying BzrCheckError and
1022
some other exceptions on Python 2.5.
1023
(Martin Pool, #144633)
1024
1025
* Fix ``Inventory.copy()`` and add test for it. (Jelmer Vernooij)
1026
1027
* Handles default value for ListOption in cmd_commit.
1028
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140432)
1029
1030
* HttpServer and FtpServer need to be closed properly or a listening socket
1031
will remain opened.
1032
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140055)
1033
1034
* Monitor the .bzr directory created in the top level test
1035
directory to detect leaking tests.
1036
(Vincent Ladeuil, #147986)
1037
1038
* The basename, not the full path, is now used when checking whether
1039
the profiling dump file begins with ``callgrind.out`` or not. This
1040
fixes a bug reported by Aaron Bentley on IRC. (Ian Clatworthy)
1041
1042
* Trivial fix for invoking command ``reconfigure`` without arguments.
1043
(Rob Weir, #141629)
1044
1045
* ``WorkingTree.rename_one`` will now raise an error if normalisation of the
1046
new path causes bzr to be unable to access the file. (Robert Collins)
1047
1048
* Correctly detect a NoSuchFile when using a filezilla server. (Gary van der
1049
Merwe)
1050
1051
API BREAKS:
1052
1053
* ``bzrlib.index.GraphIndex`` now requires a size parameter to the
1054
constructor, for enabling bisection searches. (Robert Collins)
1055
1056
* ``CommitBuilder.record_entry_contents`` now requires the root entry of a
1057
tree be supplied to it, previously failing to do so would trigger a
1058
deprecation warning. (Robert Collins)
1059
1060
* ``KnitVersionedFile.add*`` will no longer cache added records even when
1061
enable_cache() has been called - the caching feature is now exclusively for
1062
reading existing data. (Robert Collins)
1063
1064
* ``ReadOnlyLockError`` is deprecated; ``LockFailed`` is usually more
1065
appropriate. (Martin Pool)
1066
1067
* Removed ``bzrlib.transport.TransportLogger`` - please see the new
1068
``trace+`` transport instead. (Robert Collins)
1069
1070
* Removed previously deprecated varargs interface to ``TestCase.run_bzr`` and
1071
deprecated methods ``TestCase.capture`` and ``TestCase.run_bzr_captured``.
1072
(Martin Pool)
1073
1074
* Removed previous deprecated ``basis_knit`` parameter to the
1075
``KnitVersionedFile`` constructor. (Robert Collins)
1076
1077
* Special purpose method ``TestCase.run_bzr_decode`` is moved to the test_non_ascii
1078
class that needs it.
1079
(Martin Pool)
1080
1081
* The class ``bzrlib.repofmt.knitrepo.KnitRepository3`` has been folded into
1082
``KnitRepository`` by parameters to the constructor. (Robert Collins)
1083
1084
* The ``VersionedFile`` interface now allows content checks to be bypassed
1085
by supplying check_content=False. This saves nearly 30% of the minimum
1086
cost to store a version of a file. (Robert Collins)
1087
1088
* Tree's with bad state such as files with no length or sha will no longer
1089
be silently accepted by the repository XML serialiser. To serialise
1090
inventories without such data, pass working=True to write_inventory.
1091
(Robert Collins)
1092
1093
* ``VersionedFile.fix_parents`` has been removed as a harmful API.
1094
``VersionedFile.join`` will no longer accept different parents on either
1095
side of a join - it will either ignore them, or error, depending on the
1096
implementation. See notes when upgrading for more information.
1097
(Robert Collins)
1098
1099
INTERNALS:
1100
1101
* ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.put_file`` now returns the number of bytes
1102
put by the method call, to allow avoiding stat-after-write or
1103
housekeeping in callers. (Robert Collins)
1104
1105
* ``bzrlib.xml_serializer.Serializer`` is now responsible for checking that
1106
mandatory attributes are present on serialisation and deserialisation.
1107
This fixes some holes in API usage and allows better separation between
1108
physical storage and object serialisation. (Robert Collins)
1109
1110
* New class ``bzrlib.errors.InternalBzrError`` which is just a convenient
1111
shorthand for deriving from BzrError and setting internal_error = True.
1112
(Robert Collins)
1113
1114
* New method ``bzrlib.mutabletree.update_to_one_parent_via_delta`` for
1115
moving the state of a parent tree to a new version via a delta rather than
1116
a complete replacement tree. (Robert Collins)
1117
1118
* New method ``bzrlib.osutils.minimum_path_selection`` useful for removing
1119
duplication from user input, when a user mentions both a path and an item
1120
contained within that path. (Robert Collins)
1121
1122
* New method ``bzrlib.repository.Repository.is_write_locked`` useful for
1123
determining if a repository is write locked. (Robert Collins)
1124
1125
* New method on ``bzrlib.tree.Tree`` ``path_content_summary`` provides a
1126
tuple containing the key information about a path for commit processing
1127
to complete. (Robert Collins)
1128
1129
* New method on xml serialisers, write_inventory_to_lines, which matches the
1130
API used by knits for adding content. (Robert Collins)
1131
1132
* New module ``bzrlib.bisect_multi`` with generic multiple-bisection-at-once
1133
logic, currently only available for byte-based lookup
1134
(``bisect_multi_bytes``). (Robert Collins)
1135
1136
* New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a byte string
1137
and returns a gzipped version of the same. This is used to avoid a bunch
1138
of api friction during adding of knit hunks. (Robert Collins)
1139
1140
* New parameter on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.readv``
1141
``adjust_for_latency`` which changes readv from returning strictly the
1142
requested data to inserted return larger ranges and in forward read order
1143
to reduce the effect of network latency. (Robert Collins)
1144
1145
* New parameter yield_parents on ``Inventory.iter_entries_by_dir`` which
1146
causes the parents of a selected id to be returned recursively, so all the
1147
paths from the root down to each element of selected_file_ids are
1148
returned. (Robert Collins)
1149
1150
* Knit joining has been enhanced to support plain to annotated conversion
1151
and annotated to plain conversion. (Ian Clatworthy)
1152
1153
* The CommitBuilder method ``record_entry_contents`` now returns summary
1154
information about the effect of the commit on the repository. This tuple
1155
contains an inventory delta item if the entry changed from the basis, and a
1156
boolean indicating whether a new file graph node was recorded.
1157
(Robert Collins)
1158
1159
* The python path used in the Makefile can now be overridden.
1160
(Andrew Bennetts, Ian Clatworthy)
1161
1162
TESTING:
1163
1164
* New transport implementation ``trace+`` which is useful for testing,
1165
logging activity taken to its _activity attribute. (Robert Collins)
1166
1167
* When running bzr commands within the test suite, internal exceptions are
1168
not caught and reported in the usual way, but rather allowed to propagate
1169
up and be visible to the test suite. A new API ``run_bzr_catch_user_errors``
1170
makes this behavior available to other users.
1171
(Martin Pool)
1172
1173
* New method ``TestCase.call_catch_warnings`` for testing methods that
1174
raises a Python warning. (Martin Pool)
1175
1176
1177
bzr 0.91 2007-09-26
1178
-------------------
1179
1180
BUG FIXES:
1181
1182
* Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py install``
1183
process if building of a C extension is not possible.
1184
(Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
1185
1186
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
1187
1188
* Fix ''bzr info bzr://host/'' and other operations on ''bzr://' URLs with
1189
an implicit port. We were incorrectly raising PathNotChild due to
1190
inconsistent treatment of the ''_port'' attribute on the Transport object.
1191
(Andrew Bennetts, #133965)
1192
1193
* Make RemoteRepository.sprout cope gracefully with servers that don't
1194
support the ``Repository.tarball`` request.
1195
(Andrew Bennetts)
1196
1197
1198
bzr 0.91rc2 2007-09-11
1199
----------------------
1200
1201
* Replaced incorrect tarball for previous release; a debug statement was left
1202
in bzrlib/remote.py.
1203
1204
1205
bzr 0.91rc1 2007-09-11
1206
----------------------
1207
1208
CHANGES:
1209
1210
* The default branch and repository format has changed to
1211
``dirstate-tags``, so tag commands are active by default.
1212
This format is compatible with Bazaar 0.15 and later.
1213
This incidentally fixes bug #126141.
1214
(Martin Pool)
1215
1216
* ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is no longer a global option. If present, it
1217
must now appear after the command name. Scripts doing things like
1218
``bzr -q missing`` need to be rewritten as ``bzr missing -q``.
1219
(Ian Clatworthy)
1220
1221
FEATURES:
1222
1223
* New option ``--author`` in ``bzr commit`` to specify the author of the
1224
change, if it's different from the committer. ``bzr log`` and
1225
``bzr annotate`` display the author instead of the committer.
1226
(Lukáš Lalinský)
1227
1228
* In addition to global options and command specific options, a set of
1229
standard options are now supported. Standard options are legal for
1230
all commands. The initial set of standard options are:
1231
1232
* ``--help`` or ``-h`` - display help message
1233
* ``--verbose`` or ``-v`` - display additional information
1234
* ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` - only output warnings and errors.
1235
1236
Unlike global options, standard options can be used in aliases and
1237
may have command-specific help. (Ian Clatworthy)
1238
1239
* Verbosity level processing has now been unified. If ``--verbose``
1240
or ``-v`` is specified on the command line multiple times, the
1241
verbosity level is made positive the first time then increased.
1242
If ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is specified on the command line
1243
multiple times, the verbosity level is made negative the first
1244
time then decreased. To get the default verbosity level of zero,
1245
either specify none of the above , ``--no-verbose`` or ``--no-quiet``.
1246
Note that most commands currently ignore the magnitude of the
1247
verbosity level but do respect *quiet vs normal vs verbose* when
1248
generating output. (Ian Clatworthy)
1249
1250
* ``Branch.hooks`` now supports ``pre_commit`` hook. The hook's signature
1251
is documented in BranchHooks constructor. (Nam T. Nguyen, #102747)
1252
1253
* New ``Repository.stream_knit_data_for_revisions`` request added to the
1254
network protocol for greatly reduced roundtrips when retrieving a set of
1255
revisions. (Andrew Bennetts)
1256
1257
BUG FIXES:
1258
1259
* ``bzr plugins`` now lists the version number for each plugin in square
1260
brackets after the path. (Robert Collins, #125421)
1261
1262
* Pushing, pulling and branching branches with subtree references was not
1263
copying the subtree weave, preventing the file graph from being accessed
1264
and causing errors in commits in clones. (Robert Collins)
1265
1266
* Suppress warning "integer argument expected, got float" from Paramiko,
1267
which sometimes caused false test failures. (Martin Pool)
1268
1269
* Fix bug in bundle 4 that could cause attempts to write data to wrong
1270
versionedfile. (Aaron Bentley)
1271
1272
* Diffs generated using "diff -p" no longer break the patch parser.
1273
(Aaron Bentley)
1274
1275
* get_transport treats an empty possible_transports list the same as a non-
1276
empty one. (Aaron Bentley)
1277
1278
* patch verification for merge directives is reactivated, and works with
1279
CRLF and CR files. (Aaron Bentley)
1280
1281
* Accept ..\ as a path in revision specifiers. This fixes for example
1282
"-r branch:..\other-branch" on Windows. (Lukáš Lalinský)
1283
1284
* ``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` may now contain trailing slashes.
1285
(Blake Winton, #129299)
1286
1287
* man page no longer lists hidden options (#131667, Aaron Bentley)
1288
1289
* ``uncommit --help`` now explains the -r option adequately. (Daniel
1290
Watkins, #106726)
1291
1292
* Error messages are now better formatted with parameters (such as
1293
filenames) quoted when necessary. This avoids confusion when directory
1294
names ending in a '.' at the end of messages were confused with a
1295
full stop that may or not have been there. (Daniel Watkins, #129791)
1296
1297
* Fix ``status FILE -r X..Y``. (Lukáš Lalinský)
1298
1299
* If a particular command is an alias, ``help`` will show the alias
1300
instead of claiming there is no help for said alias. (Daniel Watkins,
1301
#133548)
1302
1303
* TreeTransform-based operations, like pull, merge, revert, and branch,
1304
now roll back if they encounter an error. (Aaron Bentley, #67699)
1305
1306
* ``bzr commit`` now exits cleanly if a character unsupported by the
1307
current encoding is used in the commit message. (Daniel Watkins,
1308
#116143)
1309
1310
* bzr send uses default values for ranges when only half of an elipsis
1311
is specified ("-r..5" or "-r5.."). (#61685, Aaron Bentley)
1312
1313
* Avoid trouble when Windows ssh calls itself 'plink' but no plink
1314
binary is present. (Martin Albisetti, #107155)
1315
1316
* ``bzr remove`` should remove clean subtrees. Now it will remove (without
1317
needing ``--force``) subtrees that contain no files with text changes or
1318
modified files. With ``--force`` it removes the subtree regardless of
1319
text changes or unknown files. Directories with renames in or out (but
1320
not changed otherwise) will now be removed without needing ``--force``.
1321
Unknown ignored files will be deleted without needing ``--force``.
1322
(Marius Kruger, #111665)
1323
1324
* When two plugins conflict, the source of both the losing and now the
1325
winning definition is shown. (Konstantin Mikhaylov, #5454)
1326
1327
* When committing to a branch, the location being committed to is
1328
displayed. (Daniel Watkins, #52479)
1329
1330
* ``bzr --version`` takes care about encoding of stdout, especially
1331
when output is redirected. (Alexander Belchenko, #131100)
1332
1333
* Prompt for an ftp password if none is provided.
1334
(Vincent Ladeuil, #137044)
1335
1336
* Reuse bound branch associated transport to avoid multiple
1337
connections.
1338
(Vincent Ladeuil, #128076, #131396)
1339
1340
* Overwrite conflicting tags by ``push`` and ``pull`` if the
1341
``--overwrite`` option is specified. (Lukáš Lalinský, #93947)
1342
1343
* In checkouts, tags are copied into the master branch when created,
1344
changed or deleted, and are copied into the checkout when it is
1345
updated. (Martin Pool, #93856, #93860)
1346
1347
* Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py install``
1348
process if building of a C extension is not possible.
1349
(Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
1350
1351
IMPROVEMENTS:
1352
1353
* Add the option "--show-diff" to the commit command in order to display
1354
the diff during the commit log creation. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
1355
1356
* ``pull`` and ``merge`` are much faster at installing bundle format 4.
1357
(Aaron Bentley)
1358
1359
* ``pull -v`` no longer includes deltas, making it much faster.
1360
(Aaron Bentley)
1361
1362
* ``send`` now sends the directive as an attachment by default.
1363
(Aaron Bentley, Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
1364
1365
* Documentation updates (Martin Albisetti)
1366
1367
* Help on debug flags is now included in ``help global-options``.
1368
(Daniel Watkins, #124853)
1369
1370
* Parameters passed on the command line are checked to ensure they are
1371
supported by the encoding in use. (Daniel Watkins)
1372
1373
* The compression used within the bzr repository has changed from zlib
1374
level 9 to the zlib default level. This improves commit performance with
1375
only a small increase in space used (and in some cases a reduction in
1376
space). (Robert Collins)
1377
1378
* Initial commit no longer SHAs files twice and now reuses the path
1379
rather than looking it up again, making it faster.
1380
(Ian Clatworthy)
1381
1382
* New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``diff`` and ``status`` to show
1383
changes in one revision. (Lukáš Lalinský)
1384
1385
* If versioned files match a given ignore pattern, a warning is now
1386
given. (Daniel Watkins, #48623)
1387
1388
* ``bzr status`` now has -S as a short name for --short and -V as a
1389
short name for --versioned. These have been added to assist users
1390
migrating from Subversion: ``bzr status -SV`` is now like
1391
``svn status -q``. (Daniel Watkins, #115990)
1392
1393
* Added C implementation of ``PatienceSequenceMatcher``, which is about
1394
10x faster than the Python version. This speeds up commands that
1395
need file diffing, such as ``bzr commit`` or ``bzr diff``.
1396
(Lukáš Lalinský)
1397
1398
* HACKING has been extended with a large section on core developer tasks.
1399
(Ian Clatworthy)
1400
1401
* Add ``branches`` and ``standalone-trees`` as online help topics and
1402
include them as Concepts within the User Reference.
1403
(Paul Moore, Ian Clatworthy)
1404
1405
* ``check`` can detect versionedfile parent references that are
1406
inconsistent with revision and inventory info, and ``reconcile`` can fix
1407
them. These faulty references were generated by 0.8-era releases,
1408
so repositories which were manipulated by old bzrs should be
1409
checked, and possibly reconciled ASAP. (Aaron Bentley, Andrew Bennetts)
1410
1411
API BREAKS:
1412
1413
* ``Branch.append_revision`` is removed altogether; please use
1414
``Branch.set_last_revision_info`` instead. (Martin Pool)
1415
1416
* CommitBuilder now advertises itself as requiring the root entry to be
1417
supplied. This only affects foreign repository implementations which reuse
1418
CommitBuilder directly and have changed record_entry_contents to require
1419
that the root not be supplied. This should be precisely zero plugins
1420
affected. (Robert Collins)
1421
1422
* The ``add_lines`` methods on ``VersionedFile`` implementations has changed
1423
its return value to include the sha1 and length of the inserted text. This
1424
allows the avoidance of double-sha1 calculations during commit.
1425
(Robert Collins)
1426
1427
* ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed. It was not called in the
1428
previous release. (Martin Pool)
1429
1430
TESTING:
1431
1432
* Tests may now raise TestNotApplicable to indicate they shouldn't be
1433
run in a particular scenario. (Martin Pool)
1434
1435
* New function multiply_tests_from_modules to give a simpler interface
1436
to test parameterization. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
1437
1438
* ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed. It was not called in the
1439
previous release. (Martin Pool)
1440
1441
* NULL_REVISION is returned to indicate the null revision, not None.
1442
(Aaron Bentley)
1443
1444
* Use UTF-8 encoded StringIO for log tests to avoid failures on
1445
non-ASCII committer names. (Lukáš Lalinský)
1446
1447
INTERNALS:
1448
1449
* ``bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins`` has been deprecated in favour of
1450
``bzrlib.plugin.plugins()`` which returns PlugIn objects that provide
1451
useful functionality for determining the path of a plugin, its tests, and
1452
its version information. (Robert Collins)
1453
1454
* Add the option user_encoding to the function 'show_diff_trees()'
1455
in order to move the user encoding at the UI level. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
1456
1457
* Add the function make_commit_message_template_encoded() and the function
1458
edit_commit_message_encoded() which handle encoded strings.
1459
This is done in order to mix the commit messages (which is a unicode
1460
string), and the diff which is a raw string. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
1461
1462
* CommitBuilder now defaults to using add_lines_with_ghosts, reducing
1463
overhead on non-weave repositories which don't require all parents to be
1464
present. (Robert Collins)
1465
1466
* Deprecated method ``find_previous_heads`` on
1467
``bzrlib.inventory.InventoryEntry``. This has been superseded by the use
1468
of ``parent_candidates`` and a separate heads check via the repository
1469
API. (Robert Collins)
1470
1471
* New trace function ``mutter_callsite`` will print out a subset of the
1472
stack to the log, which can be useful for gathering debug details.
1473
(Robert Collins)
1474
1475
* ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now tracks how many records have been
1476
added via a public attribute records_written. (Robert Collins)
1477
1478
* New method ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.get_recommended_page_size``.
1479
This provides a hint to users of transports as to the reasonable
1480
minimum data to read. In principle this can take latency and
1481
bandwidth into account on a per-connection basis, but for now it
1482
just has hard coded values based on the url. (e.g. http:// has a large
1483
page size, file:// has a small one.) (Robert Collins)
1484
1485
* New method on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport`` ``open_write_stream`` allows
1486
incremental addition of data to a file without requiring that all the
1487
data be buffered in memory. (Robert Collins)
1488
1489
* New methods on ``bzrlib.knit.KnitVersionedFile``:
1490
``get_data_stream(versions)``, ``insert_data_stream(stream)`` and
1491
``get_format_signature()``. These provide some infrastructure for
1492
efficiently streaming the knit data for a set of versions over the smart
1493
protocol.
1494
1495
* Knits with no annotation cache still produce correct annotations.
1496
(Aaron Bentley)
1497
1498
* Three new methods have been added to ``bzrlib.trace``:
1499
``set_verbosity_level``, ``get_verbosity_level`` and ``is_verbose``.
1500
``set_verbosity_level`` expects a numeric value: negative for quiet,
1501
zero for normal, positive for verbose. The size of the number can be
1502
used to determine just how quiet or verbose the application should be.
1503
The existing ``be_quiet`` and ``is_quiet`` routines have been
1504
integrated into this new scheme. (Ian Clatworthy)
1505
1506
* Options can now be delcared with a ``custom_callback`` parameter. If
1507
set, this routine is called after the option is processed. This feature
1508
is now used by the standard options ``verbose`` and ``quiet`` so that
1509
setting one implicitly resets the other. (Ian Clatworthy)
1510
1511
* Rather than declaring a new option from scratch in order to provide
1512
custom help, a centrally registered option can be decorated using the
1513
new ``bzrlib.Option.custom_help`` routine. In particular, this routine
1514
is useful when declaring better help for the ``verbose`` and ``quiet``
1515
standard options as the base definition of these is now more complex
1516
than before thanks to their use of a custom callback. (Ian Clatworthy)
1517
1518
* Tree._iter_changes(specific_file=[]) now iterates through no files,
1519
instead of iterating through all files. None is used to iterate through
1520
all files. (Aaron Bentley)
1521
1522
* WorkingTree.revert() now accepts None to revert all files. The use of
1523
[] to revert all files is deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)

-------------------
1528
1529
IMPROVEMENTS:
1530
1531
* Documentation is now organized into multiple directories with a level
1532
added for different languages or locales. Added the Mini Tutorial
1533
and Quick Start Summary (en) documents from the Wiki, improving the
1534
content and readability of the former. Formatted NEWS as Release Notes
1535
complete with a Table of Conents, one heading per release. Moved the
1536
Developer Guide into the main document catalog and provided a link
1537
from the developer document catalog back to the main one.

1541
API CHANGES:
1542
1543
* The static convenience method ``BzrDir.create_repository``
1544
is deprecated. Callers should instead create a ``BzrDir`` instance
1545
and call ``create_repository`` on that. (Martin Pool)
1546

1548
bzr 0.90rc1 2007-08-14
1549
----------------------
1550
1551
BUGFIXES:
1552
1553
* ``bzr init`` should connect to the remote location one time only. We
1554
have been connecting several times because we forget to pass around the
1555
Transport object. This modifies ``BzrDir.create_branch_convenience``,
1556
so that we can give it the Transport we already have.
1557
(John Arbash Meinel, Vincent Ladeuil, #111702)
1558
1559
* Get rid of sftp connection cache (get rid of the FTP one too).
1560
(Vincent Ladeuil, #43731)
1561
1562
* bzr branch {local|remote} remote don't try to create a working tree
1563
anymore.
1564
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112173)
1565
1566
* All identified multiple connections for a single bzr command have been
1567
fixed. See bzrlib/tests/commands directory.
1568
(Vincent Ladeuil)
1569
1570
* ``bzr rm`` now does not insist on ``--force`` to delete files that
1571
have been renamed but not otherwise modified. (Marius Kruger,
1572
#111664)
1573
1574
* ``bzr selftest --bench`` no longer emits deprecation warnings
1575
(Lukáš Lalinský)
1576
1577
* ``bzr status`` now honours FILE parameters for conflict lists
1578
(Aaron Bentley, #127606)
1579
1580
* ``bzr checkout`` now honours -r when reconstituting a working tree.
1581
It also honours -r 0. (Aaron Bentley, #127708)
1582
1583
* ``bzr add *`` no more fails on Windows if working tree contains
1584
non-ascii file names. (Kuno Meyer, #127361)
1585
1586
* allow ``easy_install bzr`` runs without fatal errors.
1587
(Alexander Belchenko, #125521)
1588
1589
* Graph._filter_candidate_lca does not raise KeyError if a candidate
1590
is eliminated just before it would normally be examined. (Aaron Bentley)
1591
1592
* SMTP connection failures produce a nice message, not a traceback.
1593
(Aaron Bentley)
1594
1595
IMPROVEMENTS:
1596
1597
* Don't show "dots" progress indicators when run non-interactively, such
1598
as from cron. (Martin Pool)
1599
1600
* ``info`` now formats locations more nicely and lists "submit" and
1601
"public" branches (Aaron Bentley)
1602
1603
* New ``pack`` command that will trigger database compression within
1604
the repository (Robert Collins)
1605
1606
* Implement ``_KnitIndex._load_data`` in a pyrex extension. The pyrex
1607
version is approximately 2-3x faster at parsing a ``.kndx`` file.
1608
Which yields a measurable improvement for commands which have to
1609
read from the repository, such as a 1s => 0.75s improvement in
1610
``bzr diff`` when there are changes to be shown. (John Arbash Meinel)
1611
1612
* Merge is now faster. Depending on the scenario, it can be more than 2x
1613
faster. (Aaron Bentley)
1614
1615
* Give a clearer warning, and allow ``python setup.py install`` to
1616
succeed even if pyrex is not available.
1617
(John Arbash Meinel)
1618
1619
* ``DirState._read_dirblocks`` now has an optional Pyrex
1620
implementation. This improves the speed of any command that has to
1621
read the entire DirState. (``diff``, ``status``, etc, improve by
1622
about 10%).
1623
``bisect_dirblocks`` has also been improved, which helps all
1624
``_get_entry`` type calls (whenever we are searching for a
1625
particular entry in the in-memory DirState).
1626
(John Arbash Meinel)
1627
1628
* ``bzr pull`` and ``bzr push`` no longer do a complete walk of the
1629
branch revision history for ui display unless -v is supplied.
1630
(Robert Collins)
1631
1632
* ``bzr log -rA..B`` output shifted to the left margin if the log only
1633
contains merge revisions. (Kent Gibson)
1634
1635
* The ``plugins`` command is now public with improved help.
1636
(Ian Clatworthy)
1637
1638
* New bundle and merge directive formats are faster to generate, and
1639
1640
* Annotate merge now works when there are local changes. (Aaron Bentley)
1641
1642
* Commit now only shows the progress in terms of directories instead of
1643
entries. (Ian Clatworthy)
1644
1645
* Fix ``KnitRepository.get_revision_graph`` to not request the graph 2
1646
times. This makes ``get_revision_graph`` 2x faster. (John Arbash
1647
Meinel)
1648
1649
* Fix ``VersionedFile.get_graph()`` to avoid using
1650
``set.difference_update(other)``, which has bad scaling when
1651
``other`` is large. This improves ``VF.get_graph([version_id])`` for
1652
a 12.5k graph from 2.9s down to 200ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
1653
1654
* The ``--lsprof-file`` option now generates output for KCacheGrind if
1655
the file starts with ``callgrind.out``. This matches the default file
1656
filtering done by KCacheGrind's Open Dialog. (Ian Clatworthy)
1657
1658
* Fix ``bzr update`` to avoid an unnecessary
1659
``branch.get_master_branch`` call, which avoids 1 extra connection
1660
to the remote server. (Partial fix for #128076, John Arbash Meinel)
1661
1662
* Log errors from the smart server in the trace file, to make debugging
1663
test failures (and live failures!) easier. (Andrew Bennetts)
1664
1665
* The HTML version of the man page has been superceded by a more
1666
comprehensive manual called the Bazaar User Reference. This manual
1667
is completed generated from the online help topics. As part of this
1668
change, limited reStructuredText is now explicitly supported in help
1669
topics and command help with 'unnatural' markup being removed prior
1670
to display by the online help or inclusion in the man page.
1671
(Ian Clatworthy)
1672
1673
* HTML documentation now use files extension ``*.html``
1674
(Alexander Belchenko)
1675
1676
* The cache of ignore definitions is now cleared in WorkingTree.unlock()
1677
so that changes to .bzrignore aren't missed. (#129694, Daniel Watkins)
1678
1679
* ``bzr selftest --strict`` fails if there are any missing features or
1680
expected test failures. (Daniel Watkins, #111914)
1681
1682
* Link to registration survey added to README. (Ian Clatworthy)
1683
1684
* Windows standalone installer show link to registration survey
1685
when installation finished. (Alexander Belchenko)
1686
1687
LIBRARY API BREAKS:
1688
1689
* Deprecated dictionary ``bzrlib.option.SHORT_OPTIONS`` removed.
1690
Options are now required to provide a help string and it must
1691
comply with the style guide by being one or more sentences with an
1692
initial capital and final period. (Martin Pool)
1693
1694
* KnitIndex.get_parents now returns tuples. (Robert Collins)
1695
1696
* Ancient unused ``Repository.text_store`` attribute has been removed.
1697
(Robert Collins)
1698
1699
* The ``bzrlib.pack`` interface has changed to use tuples of bytestrings
1700
rather than just bytestrings, making it easier to represent multiple
1701
element names. As this interface was not used by any internal facilities
1702
since it was introduced in 0.18 no API compatibility is being preserved.
1703
The serialised form of these packs is identical with 0.18 when a single
1704
element tuple is in use. (Robert Collins)
1705
1706
INTERNALS:
1707
1708
* merge now uses ``iter_changes`` to calculate changes, which makes room for
1709
future performance increases. It is also more consistent with other
1710
operations that perform comparisons, and reduces reliance on
1711
Tree.inventory. (Aaron Bentley)
1712
1713
* Refactoring of transport classes connected to a remote server.
1714
ConnectedTransport is a new class that serves as a basis for all
1715
transports needing to connect to a remote server. transport.split_url
1716
have been deprecated, use the static method on the object instead. URL
1717
tests have been refactored too.
1718
(Vincent Ladeuil)
1719
1720
* Better connection sharing for ConnectedTransport objects.
1721
transport.get_transport() now accepts a 'possible_transports' parameter.
1722
If a newly requested transport can share a connection with one of the
1723
list, it will.
1724
(Vincent Ladeuil)
1725
1726
* Most functions now accept ``bzrlib.revision.NULL_REVISION`` to indicate
1727
the null revision, and consider using ``None`` for this purpose
1728
deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)
1729
1730
* New ``index`` module with abstract index functionality. This will be
1731
used during the planned changes in the repository layer. Currently the
1732
index layer provides a graph aware immutable index, a builder for the
1733
same index type to allow creating them, and finally a composer for
1734
such indices to allow the use of many indices in a single query. The
1735
index performance is not optimised, however the API is stable to allow
1736
development on top of the index. (Robert Collins)
1737
1738
* ``bzrlib.dirstate.cmp_by_dirs`` can be used to compare two paths by
1739
their directory sections. This is equivalent to comparing
1740
``path.split('/')``, only without having to split the paths.
1741
This has a Pyrex implementation available.
1742
(John Arbash Meinel)
1743
1744
* New transport decorator 'unlistable+' which disables the list_dir
1745
functionality for testing.
1746
1747
* Deprecated ``change_entry`` in transform.py. (Ian Clatworthy)
1748
1749
* RevisionTree.get_weave is now deprecated. Tree.plan_merge is now used
1750
for performing annotate-merge. (Aaron Bentley)
1751
1752
* New EmailMessage class to create email messages. (Adeodato Simó)
1753
1754
* Unused functions on the private interface KnitIndex have been removed.
1755
(Robert Collins)
1756
1757
* New ``knit.KnitGraphIndex`` which provides a ``KnitIndex`` layered on top
1758
of a ``index.GraphIndex``. (Robert Collins)
1759
1760
* New ``knit.KnitVersionedFile.iter_parents`` method that allows querying
1761
the parents of many knit nodes at once, reducing round trips to the
1762
underlying index. (Robert Collins)
1763
1764
* Graph now has an is_ancestor method, various bits use it.
1765
(Aaron Bentley)
1766
1767
* The ``-Dhpss`` flag now includes timing information. As well as
1768
logging when a new connection is opened. (John Arbash Meinel)
1769
1770
* ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now returns an offset, length tuple to
1771
callers when inserting data, allowing generation of readv style access
1772
during pack creation, without needing a separate pass across the output
1773
pack to gather such details. (Robert Collins)
1774
1775
* ``bzrlib.pack.make_readv_reader`` allows readv based access to pack
1776
files that are stored on a transport. (Robert Collins)
1777
1778
* New ``Repository.has_same_location`` method that reports if two
1779
repository objects refer to the same repository (although with some risk
1780
of false negatives). (Andrew Bennetts)
1781
1782
* InterTree.compare now passes require_versioned on correctly.
1783
(Marius Kruger)
1784
1785
* New methods on Repository - ``start_write_group``,
1786
``commit_write_group``, ``abort_write_group`` and ``is_in_write_group`` -
1787
which provide a clean hook point for transactional Repositories - ones
1788
where all the data for a fetch or commit needs to be made atomically
1789
available in one step. This allows the write lock to remain while making
1790
a series of data insertions. (e.g. data conversion). (Robert Collins)
1791
1792
* In ``bzrlib.knit`` the internal interface has been altered to use
1793
3-tuples (index, pos, length) rather than two-tuples (pos, length) to
1794
describe where data in a knit is, allowing knits to be split into
1795
many files. (Robert Collins)
1796
1797
* ``bzrlib.knit._KnitData`` split into cache management and physical access
1798
with two access classes - ``_PackAccess`` and ``_KnitAccess`` defined.
1799
The former provides access into a .pack file, and the latter provides the
1800
current production repository form of .knit files. (Robert Collins)
1801
1802
TESTING:
1803
1804
* Remove selftest ``--clean-output``, ``--numbered-dirs`` and
1805
``--keep-output`` options, which are obsolete now that tests
1806
are done within directories in $TMPDIR. (Martin Pool)
1807
1808
* The SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable is now reset to avoid
1809
interaction with any running ssh agents. (Jelmer Vernooij, #125955)
1810
1811
* run_bzr_subprocess handles parameters the same way as run_bzr:
1812
either a string or a list of strings should be passed as the first
1813
parameter. Varargs-style parameters are deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)

individually and as part of revision ranges.
1859
(Kent Gibson, #4663)

1861
* Don't leave cruft behind when failing to acquire a lockdir.
1862
(Martin Pool, #109169)
1863
1864
* Don't use the '-f' strace option during tests.
1865
(Vincent Ladeuil, #102019).

1870
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
1871
1872
* Make annotate behave in a non-ASCII world (Adeodato Simó).
1873
1874
IMPROVEMENTS:
1875
1876
* The --lsprof-file option now dumps a text rendering of the profiling
1877
information if the filename ends in ".txt". It will also convert the
1878
profiling information to a format suitable for KCacheGrind if the
1879
output filename ends in ".callgrind". Fixes to the lsprofcalltree
1880
conversion process by Jean Paul Calderone and Itamar were also merged.
1881
See http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree. (Ian Clatworthy)
1882
1883
* ``info`` now defaults to non-verbose mode, displaying only paths and
1884
abbreviated format info. ``info -v`` displays all the information
1885
formerly displayed by ``info``. (Aaron Bentley, Adeodato Simó)
1886
1887
* ``bzr missing`` now has better option names ``--this`` and ``--other``.
1888
(Elliot Murphy)
1889
1890
* The internal ``weave-list`` command has become ``versionedfile-list``,
1891
and now lists knits as well as weaves. (Aaron Bentley)
1892
1893
* Automatic merge base selection uses a faster algorithm that chooses
1894
better bases in criss-cross merge situations (Aaron Bentley)
1895
1896
* Progress reporting in ``commit`` has been improved. The various logical
1897
stages are now reported on as follows, namely:
1898
1899
* Collecting changes [Entry x/y] - Stage n/m
1900
* Saving data locally - Stage n/m
1901
* Uploading data to master branch - Stage n/m
1902
* Updating the working tree - Stage n/m
1903
* Running post commit hooks - Stage n/m
1904
1905
If there is no master branch, the 3rd stage is omitted and the total
1906
number of stages is adjusted accordingly.
1907
1908
Each hook that is run after commit is listed with a name (as hooks
1909
can be slow it is useful feedback).
1910
(Ian Clatworthy, Robert Collins)
1911
1912
* Various operations that are now faster due to avoiding unnecessary
1913
topological sorts. (Aaron Bentley)
1914
1915
* Make merge directives robust against broken bundles. (Aaron Bentley)
1916
1917
* The lsprof filename note is emitted via trace.note(), not standard
1918
output. (Aaron Bentley)
1919
1920
* ``bzrlib`` now exports explicit API compatibility information to assist
1921
library users and plugins. See the ``bzrlib.api`` module for details.
1922
(Robert Collins)
1923
1924
* Remove unnecessary lock probes when acquiring a lockdir.
1925
(Martin Pool)
1926
1927
* ``bzr --version`` now shows the location of the bzr log file, which
1928
is especially useful on Windows. (Martin Pool)
1929
1930
* -D now supports hooks to get debug tracing of hooks (though its currently
1931
minimal in nature). (Robert Collins)
1932
1933
* Long log format reports deltas on merge revisions.
1934
(John Arbash Meinel, Kent Gibson)
1935
1936
* Make initial push over ftp more resilient. (John Arbash Meinel)
1937
1938
* Print a summary of changes for update just like pull does.
1939
(Daniel Watkins, #113990)
1940
1941
* Add a -Dhpss option to trace smart protocol requests and responses.
1942
(Andrew Bennetts)
1943
1944
LIBRARY API BREAKS:
1945
1946
* Testing cleanups -
1947
``bzrlib.repository.RepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
1948
to ``bzrlib.tests.repository_implementations``;
1949
``bzrlib.repository.InterRepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
1950
to ``bzrlib.tests.interrepository_implementations``;
1951
``bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1952
``bzrlib.tests.test_transport_implementations``.
1953
``bzrlib.branch.BranchTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1954
``bzrlib.tests.branch_implementations``.
1955
``bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1956
``bzrlib.tests.bzrdir_implementations``.
1957
``bzrlib.versionedfile.InterVersionedFileTestProviderAdapter`` has moved
1958
to ``bzrlib.tests.interversionedfile_implementations``.
1959
``bzrlib.store.revision.RevisionStoreTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1960
``bzrlib.tests.revisionstore_implementations``.
1961
``bzrlib.workingtree.WorkingTreeTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
1962
``bzrlib.tests.workingtree_implementations``.
1963
These changes are an API break in the testing infrastructure only.
1964
(Robert Collins)
1965
1966
* Relocate TestCaseWithRepository to be more central. (Robert Collins)
1967
1968
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` will no longer perform glob expansion on
1969
win32. Callers of the function should do this and use the new
1970
``MutableTree.smart_add`` method instead. (Robert Collins)
1971
1972
* ``bzrlib.add.glob_expand_for_win32`` is now
1973
``bzrlib.win32utils.glob_expand``. (Robert Collins)
1974
1975
* ``bzrlib.add.FastPath`` is now private and moved to
1976
``bzrlib.mutabletree._FastPath``. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1977
1978
* ``LockDir.wait`` removed. (Martin Pool)
1979
1980
* The ``SmartServer`` hooks API has changed for the ``server_started`` and
1981
``server_stopped`` hooks. The first parameter is now an iterable of
1982
backing URLs rather than a single URL. This is to reflect that many
1983
URLs may map to the external URL of the server. E.g. the server interally
1984
may have a chrooted URL but also the local file:// URL will be at the
1985
same location. (Robert Collins)
1986
1987
INTERNALS:
1988
1989
* New SMTPConnection class to unify email handling. (Adeodato Simó)
1990
1991
* Fix documentation of BzrError. (Adeodato Simó)
1992
1993
* Make BzrBadParameter an internal error. (Adeodato Simó)
1994
1995
* Remove use of 'assert False' to raise an exception unconditionally.
1996
(Martin Pool)
1997
1998
* Give a cleaner error when failing to decode knit index entry.
1999
(Martin Pool)
2000
2001
* TreeConfig would mistakenly search the top level when asked for options
2002
from a section. It now respects the section argument and only
2003
searches the specified section. (James Westby)
2004
2005
* Improve ``make api-docs`` output. (John Arbash Meinel)
2006
2007
* Use os.lstat rather than os.stat for osutils.make_readonly and
2008
osutils.make_writeable. This makes the difftools plugin more
2009
robust when dangling symlinks are found. (Elliot Murphy)
2010
2011
* New ``-Dlock`` option to log (to ~/.bzr.log) information on when
2012
lockdirs are taken or released. (Martin Pool)
2013
2014
* ``bzrlib`` Hooks are now nameable using ``Hooks.name_hook``. This
2015
allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current hook can
2016
be displayed. (Robert Collins)
2017
2018
* ``Transport.get`` has had its interface made more clear for ease of use.
2019
Retrieval of a directory must now fail with either 'PathError' at open
2020
time, or raise 'ReadError' on a read. (Robert Collins)
2021
2022
* New method ``_maybe_expand_globs`` on the ``Command`` class for
2023
dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32 platform. This
2024
was moved from ``bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list``. (Robert Collins)
2025
2026
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add`` and ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` are now
2027
deprecated in favour of ``MutableTree.smart_add``. (Robert Collins,
2028
Martin Pool)
2029
2030
* New method ``external_url`` on Transport for obtaining the url to
2031
hand to external processes. (Robert Collins)
2032
2033
* Teach windows installers to build pyrex/C extensions.
2034
(Alexander Belchenko)
2035
2036
TESTING:
2037
2038
* Removed the ``--keep-output`` option from selftest and clean up test
2039
directories as they're used. This reduces the IO load from
2040
running the test suite and cuts the time by about half.
2041
(Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
2042
2043
* Add scenarios as a public attribute on the TestAdapter classes to allow
2044
modification of the generated scenarios before adaption and easier
2045
testing. (Robert Collins)
2046
2047
* New testing support class ``TestScenarioApplier`` which multiplies
2048
out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios. (RobertCollins)
2049
2050
* Setting ``repository_to_test_repository`` on a repository_implementations
2051
test will cause it to be called during repository creation, allowing the
2052
testing of repository classes which are not based around the Format
2053
concept. For example a repository adapter can be tested in this manner,
2054
by altering the repository scenarios to include a scenario that sets this
2055
attribute during the test parameterisation in
2056
``bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations``. (Robert Collins)
2057
2058
* Clean up many of the APIs for blackbox testing of Bazaar. The standard
2059
interface is now self.run_bzr. The command to run can be passed as
2060
either a list of parameters, a string containing the command line, or
2061
(deprecated) varargs parameters. (Martin Pool)
2062
2063
* The base TestCase now isolates tests from -D parameters by clearing
2064
``debug.debug_flags`` and restores it afterwards. (Robert Collins)
2065
2066
* Add a relpath parameter to get_transport methods in test framework to
2067
avoid useless cloning.

2086
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
2087
2088
* The kind() and is_executable() APIs on the WorkingTree interface no
2089
longer implicitly (read) locks and unlocks the tree. This *might*
2090
impact some plug-ins and tools using this part of the API. If you find
2091
an issue that may be caused by this change, please let us know,
2092
particularly the plug-in/tool maintainer. If encountered, the API
2093
fix is to surround kind() and is_executable() calls with lock_read()
2094
and unlock() like so::
2095
2096
work_tree.lock_read()
2097
try:
2098
kind = work_tree.kind(...)
2099
finally:
2100
work_tree.unlock()
2101
2102
INTERNALS:
2103
* Rework of LogFormatter API to provide beginning/end of log hooks and to
2104
encapsulate the details of the revision to be logged in a LogRevision
2105
object.
2106
In long log formats, merge revision ids are only shown when --show-ids
2107
is specified, and are labelled "revision-id:", as per mainline
2108
revisions, instead of "merged:". (Kent Gibson)
2109
2110
* New ``BranchBuilder`` API which allows the construction of particular
2111
histories quickly. Useful for testing and potentially other applications
2112
too. (Robert Collins)
2113
2114
IMPROVEMENTS:
2115
2116
* There are two new help topics, working-trees and repositories that
2117
attempt to explain these concepts. (James Westby, John Arbash Meinel,
2118
Aaron Bentley)
2119
2120
* Added ``bzr log --limit`` to report a limited number of revisions.
2121
(Kent Gibson, #3659)
2122
2123
* Revert does not try to preserve file contents that were originally
2124
produced by reverting to a historical revision. (Aaron Bentley)
2125
2126
* ``bzr log --short`` now includes ``[merge]`` for revisions which
2127
have more than one parent. This is a small improvement to help
2128
understanding what changes have occurred
2129
(John Arbash Meinel, #83887)
2130
2131
* TreeTransform avoids many renames when contructing large trees,
2132
improving speed. 3.25x speedups have been observed for construction of
2133
kernel-sized-trees, and checkouts are 1.28x faster. (Aaron Bentley)
2134
2135
* Commit on large trees is now faster. In my environment, a commit of
2136
a small change to the Mozilla tree (55k files) has dropped from
2137
66 seconds to 32 seconds. For a small tree of 600 files, commit of a
2138
small change is 33% faster. (Ian Clatworthy)
2139
2140
* New --create-prefix option to bzr init, like for push. (Daniel Watkins,
2141
#56322)
2142
2143
BUGFIXES:
2144
2145
* ``bzr push`` should only connect to the remote location one time.
2146
We have been connecting 3 times because we forget to pass around
2147
the Transport object. This adds ``BzrDir.clone_on_transport()``, so
2148
that we can pass in the Transport that we already have.
2149
(John Arbash Meinel, #75721)
2150
2151
* ``DirState.set_state_from_inventory()`` needs to properly order
2152
based on split paths, not just string paths.
2153
(John Arbash Meinel, #115947)
2154
2155
* Let TestUIFactoy encode the password prompt with its own stdout.
2156
(Vincent Ladeuil, #110204)
2157
2158
* pycurl should take use the range header that takes the range hint
2159
into account.
2160
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112719)
2161
2162
* WorkingTree4.get_file_sha1 no longer raises an exception when invoked
2163
on a missing file. (Aaron Bentley, #118186)
2164
2165
* WorkingTree.remove works correctly with tree references, and when pwd is
2166
not the tree root. (Aaron Bentley)
2167
2168
* Merge no longer fails when a file is renamed in one tree and deleted
2169
in the other. (Aaron Bentley, #110279)
2170
2171
* ``revision-info`` now accepts dotted revnos, doesn't require a tree,
2172
and defaults to the last revision (Matthew Fuller, #90048)
2173
2174
* Tests no longer fail when BZR_REMOTE_PATH is set in the environment.
2175
(Daniel Watkins, #111958)
2176
2177
* ``bzr branch -r revid:foo`` can be used to branch any revision in
2178
your repository. (Previously Branch6 only supported revisions in your
2179
mainline). (John Arbash Meinel, #115343)

2181
bzr 0.16 2007-05-07
2182
--------------------
2183
2184
BUGFIXES:
2185
2186
* Handle when you have 2 directories with similar names, but one has a
2187
hyphen. (``'abc'`` versus ``'abc-2'``). The WT4._iter_changes
2188
iterator was using direct comparison and ``'abc/a'`` sorts after
2189
``'abc-2'``, but ``('abc', 'a')`` sorts before ``('abc-2',)``.
2190
(John Arbash Meinel, #111227)
2191
2192
* Handle when someone renames a file on disk without telling bzr.
2193
Previously we would report the first file as missing, but not show
2194
the new unknown file. (John Arbash Meinel, #111288)
2195
2196
* Avoid error when running hooks after pulling into or pushing from
2197
a branch bound to a smartserver branch. (Martin Pool, #111968)
2198
2199
IMPROVEMENTS:
2200
2201
* Move developer documentation to doc/developers/. This reduces clutter in
2202
the root of the source tree and allows HACKING to be split into multiple
2203
files. (Robert Collins, Alexander Belchenko)
2204
2205
* Clean up the ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes()`` internal loops as well as
2206
``DirState.update_entry()``. This optimizes the core logic for ``bzr
2207
diff`` and ``bzr status`` significantly improving the speed of
2208
both. (John Arbash Meinel)

2210
bzr 0.16rc2 2007-04-30
2211
-----------------------
2212
2213
BUGFIXES:
2214
2215
* Handle the case when you delete a file, and then rename another file
2216
on top of it. Also handle the case of ``bzr rm --keep foo``. ``bzr
2217
status`` should show the removed file and an unknown file in its
2218
place. (John Arbash Meinel, #109993)
2219
2220
* Bundles properly read and write revision properties that have an
2221
empty value. And when the value is not ASCII.
2222
(John Arbash Meinel, #109613)
2223
2224
* Fix the bzr commit message to be in text mode.
2225
(Alexander Belchenko, #110901)
2226
2227
* Also handle when you rename a file and create a file where it used
2228
to be. (John Arbash Meinel, #110256)
2229
2230
* ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes`` should not descend into unversioned
2231
directories. (John Arbash Meinel, #110399)
2232
2233
bzr 0.16rc1 2007-04-26
2234
-----------------------
2235
2236
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
2237
2238
* ``bzr remove`` and ``bzr rm`` will now remove the working file, if
2239
it could be recovered again.
2240
This has been done for consistency with svn and the unix rm command.
2241
The old ``remove`` behaviour has been retained in the new option
2242
``bzr remove --keep``, which will just stop versioning the file,
2243
but not delete it.
2244
``bzr remove --force`` have been added which will always delete the
2245
files.
2246
``bzr remove`` is also more verbose.
2247
(Marius Kruger, #82602)
2248
2249
IMPROVEMENTS:
2250
2251
* Merge directives can now be supplied as input to `merge` and `pull`,
2252
like bundles can. (Aaron Bentley)
2253
2254
* Sending the SIGQUIT signal to bzr, which can be done on Unix by
2255
pressing Control-Backslash, drops bzr into a debugger. Type ``'c'``
2256
to continue. This can be disabled by setting the environment variable
2257
``BZR_SIGQUIT_PDB=0``. (Martin Pool)
2258
2259
* selftest now supports --list-only to list tests instead of running
2260
them. (Ian Clatworthy)
2261
2262
* selftest now supports --exclude PATTERN (or -x PATTERN) to exclude
2263
tests with names that match that regular expression.
2264
(Ian Clatworthy, #102679)
2265
2266
* selftest now supports --randomize SEED to run tests in a random order.
2267
SEED is typically the value 'now' meaning 'use the current time'.
2268
(Ian Clatworthy, #102686)
2269
2270
* New option ``--fixes`` to commit, which stores bug fixing annotations as
2271
revision properties. Built-in support for Launchpad, Debian, Trac and
2272
Bugzilla bug trackers. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge, Robert Collins)
2273
2274
* New API, ``bzrlib.bugtracker.tracker_registry``, for adding support for
2275
other bug trackers to ``fixes``. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge,
2276
Robert Collins)
2277
2278
* ``selftest`` has new short options ``-f`` and ``-1``. (Martin
2279
Pool)
2280
2281
* ``bzrlib.tsort.MergeSorter`` optimizations. Change the inner loop
2282
into using local variables instead of going through ``self._var``.
2283
Improves the time to ``merge_sort`` a 10k revision graph by
2284
approximately 40% (~700->400ms). (John Arbash Meinel)
2285
2286
* ``make docs`` now creates a man page at ``man1/bzr.1`` fixing bug 107388.
2287
(Robert Collins)
2288
2289
* ``bzr help`` now provides cross references to other help topics using
2290
the _see_also facility on command classes. Likewise the bzr_man
2291
documentation, and the bzr.1 man page also include this information.
2292
(Robert Collins)
2293
2294
* Tags are now included in logs, that use the long log formatter.
2295
(Erik Bågfors, Alexander Belchenko)
2296
2297
* ``bzr help`` provides a clearer message when a help topic cannot be
2298
found. (Robert Collins, #107656)
2299
2300
* ``bzr help`` now accepts optional prefixes for command help. The help
2301
for all commands can now be found at ``bzr help commands/COMMANDNAME``
2302
as well as ``bzr help COMMANDNAME`` (which only works for commands
2303
where the name is not the same as a more general help topic).
2304
(Robert Collins)
2305
2306
* ``bzr help PLUGINNAME`` will now return the module docstring from the
2307
plugin PLUGINNAME. (Robert Collins, #50408)
2308
2309
* New help topic ``urlspec`` which lists the availables transports.
2310
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
2311
2312
* doc/server.txt updated to document the default bzr:// port
2313
and also update the blurb about the hpss' current status.
2314
(Robert Collins, #107125).
2315
2316
* ``bzr serve`` now listens on interface 0.0.0.0 by default, making it
2317
serve out to the local LAN (and anyone in the world that can reach the
2318
machine running ``bzr serve``. (Robert Collins, #98918)
2319
2320
* A new smart server protocol version has been added. It prefixes requests
2321
and responses with an explicit version identifier so that future protocol
2322
revisions can be dealt with gracefully. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
2323
2324
* The bzr protocol version 2 indicates success or failure in every response
2325
without depending on particular commands encoding that consistently,
2326
allowing future client refactorings to be much more robust about error
2327
handling. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool, Andrew Bennetts)
2328
2329
* The smart protocol over HTTP client has been changed to always post to the
2330
same ``.bzr/smart`` URL under the original location when it can. This allows
2331
HTTP servers to only have to pass URLs ending in .bzr/smart to the smart
2332
server handler, and not arbitrary ``.bzr/*/smart`` URLs. (Andrew Bennetts)
2333
2334
* digest authentication is now supported for proxies and HTTP by the urllib
2335
based http implementation. Tested against Apache 2.0.55 and Squid
2336
2.6.5. Basic and digest authentication are handled coherently for HTTP
2337
and proxy: if the user is provided in the url (bzr command line for HTTP,
2338
proxy environment variables for proxies), the password is prompted for
2339
(only once). If the password is provided, it is taken into account. Once
2340
the first authentication is successful, all further authentication
2341
roundtrips are avoided by preventively setting the right authentication
2342
header(s).
2343
(Vincent Ladeuil).

2345
INTERNALS:
2346
2347
* bzrlib API compatability with 0.8 has been dropped, cleaning up some
2348
code paths. (Robert Collins)
2349
2350
* Change the format of chroot urls so that they can be safely manipulated
2351
by generic url utilities without causing the resulting urls to have
2352
escaped the chroot. A side effect of this is that creating a chroot
2353
requires an explicit action using a ChrootServer.
2354
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
2355
2356
* Deprecate ``Branch.get_root_id()`` because branches don't have root ids,
2357
rather than fixing bug #96847. (Aaron Bentley)
2358
2359
* ``WorkingTree.apply_inventory_delta`` provides a better alternative to
2360
``WorkingTree._write_inventory``. (Aaron Bentley)
2361
2362
* Convenience method ``TestCase.expectFailure`` ensures that known failures
2363
do not silently pass. (Aaron Bentley)
2364
2365
* ``Transport.local_abspath`` now raises ``NotLocalUrl`` rather than
2366
``TransportNotPossible``. (Martin Pool, Ian Clatworthy)
2367
2368
* New SmartServer hooks facility. There are two initial hooks documented
2369
in ``bzrlib.transport.smart.SmartServerHooks``. The two initial hooks allow
2370
plugins to execute code upon server startup and shutdown.
2371
(Robert Collins).
2372
2373
* SmartServer in standalone mode will now close its listening socket
2374
when it stops, rather than waiting for garbage collection. This primarily
2375
fixes test suite hangs when a test tries to connect to a shutdown server.
2376
It may also help improve behaviour when dealing with a server running
2377
on a specific port (rather than dynamically assigned ports).
2378
(Robert Collins)
2379
2380
* Move most SmartServer code into a new package, bzrlib/smart.
2381
bzrlib/transport/remote.py contains just the Transport classes that used
2382
to be in bzrlib/transport/smart.py. (Andrew Bennetts)
2383
2384
* urllib http implementation avoid roundtrips associated with
2385
401 (and 407) errors once the authentication succeeds.
2386
(Vincent Ladeuil).
2387
2388
* urlib http now supports querying the user for a proxy password if
2389
needed. Realm is shown in the prompt for both HTTP and proxy
2390
authentication when the user is required to type a password.
2391
(Vincent Ladeuil).
2392
2393
* Renamed SmartTransport (and subclasses like SmartTCPTransport) to
2394
RemoteTransport (and subclasses to RemoteTCPTransport, etc). This is more
2395
consistent with its new home in ``bzrlib/transport/remote.py``, and because
2396
it's not really a "smart" transport, just one that does file operations
2397
via remote procedure calls. (Andrew Bennetts)
2398
2399
* The ``lock_write`` method of ``LockableFiles``, ``Repository`` and
2400
``Branch`` now accept a ``token`` keyword argument, so that separate
2401
instances of those objects can share a lock if it has the right token.
2402
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
2403
2404
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on ``BzrDir`` allows the detection of
2405
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
2406
2407
* The Repository API ``make_working_trees`` is now permitted to return
2408
False when ``set_make_working_trees`` is not implemented - previously
2409
an unimplemented ``set_make_working_trees`` implied the result True
2410
from ``make_working_trees``. This has been changed to accomodate the
2411
smart server, where it does not make sense (at this point) to ever
2412
make working trees by default. (Robert Collins)
2413
2414
* Command objects can now declare related help topics by having _see_also
2415
set to a list of related topic. (Robert Collins)
2416
2417
* ``bzrlib.help`` now delegates to the Command class for Command specific
2418
help. (Robert Collins)
2419
2420
* New class ``TransportListRegistry``, derived from the Registry class, which
2421
simplifies tracking the available Transports. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
2422
2423
* New function ``Branch.get_revision_id_to_revno_map`` which will
2424
return a dictionary mapping revision ids to dotted revnos. Since
2425
dotted revnos are defined in the context of the branch tip, it makes
2426
sense to generate them from a ``Branch`` object.
2427
(John Arbash Meinel)
2428
2429
* Fix the 'Unprintable error' message display to use the repr of the
2430
exception that prevented printing the error because the str value
2431
for it is often not useful in debugging (e.g. KeyError('foo') has a
2432
str() of 'foo' but a repr of 'KeyError('foo')' which is much more
2433
useful. (Robert Collins)
2434
2435
* ``urlutils.normalize_url`` now unescapes unreserved characters, such as "~".
2436
(Andrew Bennetts)

2438
BUGFIXES:
2439
2440
* Don't fail bundle selftest if email has 'two' embedded.
2441
(Ian Clatworthy, #98510)
2442
2443
* Remove ``--verbose`` from ``bzr bundle``. It didn't work anyway.
2444
(Robert Widhopf-Fenk, #98591)
2445
2446
* Remove ``--basis`` from the checkout/branch commands - it didn't work
2447
properly and is no longer beneficial.
2448
(Robert Collins, #53675, #43486)
2449
2450
* Don't produce encoding error when adding duplicate files.
2451
(Aaron Bentley)
2452
2453
* Fix ``bzr log <file>`` so it only logs the revisions that changed
2454
the file, and does it faster.
2455
(Kent Gibson, John Arbash Meinel, #51980, #69477)
2456
2457
* Fix ``InterDirstateTre._iter_changes`` to handle when we come across
2458
an empty versioned directory, which now has files in it.
2459
(John Arbash Meinel, #104257)
2460
2461
* Teach ``common_ancestor`` to shortcut when the tip of one branch is
2462
inside the ancestry of the other. Saves a lot of graph processing
2463
(with an ancestry of 16k revisions, ``bzr merge ../already-merged``
2464
changes from 2m10s to 13s). (John Arbash Meinel, #103757)
2465
2466
* Fix ``show_diff_trees`` to handle the case when a file is modified,
2467
and the containing directory is renamed. (The file path is different
2468
in this versus base, but it isn't marked as a rename).
2469
(John Arbash Meinel, #103870)
2470
2471
* FTP now works even when the FTP server does not support atomic rename.
2472
(Aaron Bentley, #89436)
2473
2474
* Correct handling in bundles and merge directives of timezones with
2475
that are not an integer number of hours offset from UTC. Always
2476
represent the epoch time in UTC to avoid problems with formatting
2477
earlier times on win32. (Martin Pool, Alexander Belchenko, John
2478
Arbash Meinel)
2479
2480
* Typo in the help for ``register-branch`` fixed. (Robert Collins, #96770)
2481
2482
* "dirstate" and "dirstate-tags" formats now produce branches compatible
2483
with old versions of bzr. (Aaron Bentley, #107168))
2484
2485
* Handle moving a directory when children have been added, removed,
2486
and renamed. (John Arbash Meinel, #105479)
2487
2488
* Don't preventively use basic authentication for proxy before receiving a
2489
407 error. Otherwise people willing to use other authentication schemes
2490
may expose their password in the clear (or nearly). This add one
2491
roundtrip in case basic authentication should be used, but plug the
2492
security hole.
2493
(Vincent Ladeuil)
2494
2495
* Handle http and proxy digest authentication.
2496
(Vincent Ladeuil, #94034).
2497
2498
TESTING:
2499
2500
* Added ``bzrlib.strace.strace`` which will strace a single callable and
2501
return a StraceResult object which contains just the syscalls involved
2502
in running it. (Robert Collins)
2503
2504
* New test method ``reduceLockdirTimeout`` to drop the default (ui-centric)
2505
default time down to one suitable for tests. (Andrew Bennetts)
2506
2507
* Add new ``vfs_transport_factory`` attribute on tests which provides the
2508
common vfs backing for both the readonly and readwrite transports.
2509
This allows the RemoteObject tests to back onto local disk or memory,
2510
and use the existing ``transport_server`` attribute all tests know about
2511
to be the smart server transport. This in turn allows tests to
2512
differentiate between 'transport to access the branch', and
2513
'transport which is a VFS' - which matters in Remote* tests.
2514
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
2515
2516
* The ``make_branch_and_tree`` method for tests will now create a
2517
lightweight checkout for the tree if the ``vfs_transport_factory`` is not
2518
a LocalURLServer. (Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
2519
2520
* Branch implementation tests have been audited to ensure that all urls
2521
passed to Branch APIs use proper urls, except when local-disk paths
2522
are intended. This is so that tests correctly access the test transport
2523
which is often not equivalent to local disk in Remote* tests. As part
2524
of this many tests were adjusted to remove dependencies on local disk
2525
access.
2526
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
2527
2528
* Mark bzrlib.tests and bzrlib.tests.TestUtil as providing assertFOO helper
2529
functions by adding a ``__unittest`` global attribute. (Robert Collins,
2530
Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool, Jonathan Lange)
2531
2532
* Refactored proxy and authentication handling to simplify the
2533
implementation of new auth schemes for both http and proxy.

CHANGES:
2552
2553
* A warning is now displayed when opening working trees in older
2554
formats, to encourage people to upgrade to WorkingTreeFormat4.
2555
(Martin Pool)
2556
2557
IMPROVEMENTS:
2558
2559
* HTTP redirections are now taken into account when a branch (or a
2560
bundle) is accessed for the first time. A message is issued at each
2561
redirection to inform the user. In the past, http redirections were
2562
silently followed for each request which significantly degraded the
2563
performances. The http redirections are not followed anymore by
2564
default, instead a RedirectRequested exception is raised. For bzrlib
2565
users needing to follow http redirections anyway,
2566
``bzrlib.transport.do_catching_redirections`` provide an easy transition
2567
path. (vila)
2568
2569
INTERNALS:
2570
2571
* Added ``ReadLock.temporary_write_lock()`` to allow upgrading an OS read
2572
lock to an OS write lock. Linux can do this without unlocking, Win32
2573
needs to unlock in between. (John Arbash Meinel)
2574
2575
* New parameter ``recommend_upgrade`` to ``BzrDir.open_workingtree``
2576
to silence (when false) warnings about opening old formats.
2577
(Martin Pool)
2578
2579
* Fix minor performance regression with bzr-0.15 on pre-dirstate
2580
trees. (We were reading the working inventory too many times).
2581
(John Arbash Meinel)
2582
2583
* Remove ``Branch.get_transaction()`` in favour of a simple cache of
2584
``revision_history``. Branch subclasses should override
2585
``_gen_revision_history`` rather than ``revision_history`` to make use of
2586
this cache, and call ``_clear_revision_history_cache`` and
2587
``_cache_revision_history`` at appropriate times. (Andrew Bennetts)
2588
2589
BUGFIXES:
2590
2591
* Take ``smtp_server`` from user config into account.
2592
(vila, #92195)
2593
2594
* Restore Unicode filename handling for versioned and unversioned files.
2595
(John Arbash Meinel, #92608)
2596
2597
* Don't fail during ``bzr commit`` if a file is marked removed, and
2598
the containing directory is auto-removed. (John Arbash Meinel, #93681)
2599
2600
* ``bzr status FILENAME`` failed on Windows because of an uncommon
2601
errno. (``ERROR_DIRECTORY == 267 != ENOTDIR``).
2602
(Wouter van Heyst, John Arbash Meinel, #90819)
2603
2604
* ``bzr checkout source`` should create a local branch in the same
2605
format as source. (John Arbash Meinel, #93854)
2606
2607
* ``bzr commit`` with a kind change was failing to update the
2608
last-changed-revision for directories. The
2609
InventoryDirectory._unchanged only looked at the ``parent_id`` and name,
2610
ignoring the fact that the kind could have changed, too.
2611
(John Arbash Meinel, #90111)
2612
2613
* ``bzr mv dir/subdir other`` was incorrectly updating files inside
2614
the directory. So that there was a chance it would break commit,
2615
etc. (John Arbash Meinel, #94037)
2616
2617
* Correctly handles mutiple permanent http redirections.

2621
-----------------------
2622
2623
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
2624
2625
* Release 0.15rc2 of bzr changes the ``bzr init-repo`` command to
2626
default to ``--trees`` instead of ``--no-trees``.
2627
Existing shared repositories are not affected.
2628
2629
IMPROVEMENTS:
2630
2631
* New ``merge-directive`` command to generate machine- and human-readable
2632
merge requests. (Aaron Bentley)
2633
2634
* New ``submit:`` revision specifier makes it easy to diff against the
2635
common ancestor with the submit location (Aaron Bentley)
2636
2637
* Added support for Putty's SSH implementation. (Dmitry Vasiliev)
2638
2639
* Added ``bzr status --versioned`` to report only versioned files,
2640
not unknowns. (Kent Gibson)
2641
2642
* Merge now autodetects the correct line-ending style for its conflict
2643
markers. (Aaron Bentley)
2644
2645
INTERNALS:
2646
2647
* Refactored SSH vendor registration into SSHVendorManager class.
2648
(Dmitry Vasiliev)
2649
2650
BUGFIXES:
2651
2652
* New ``--numbered-dirs`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to use
2653
numbered dirs for TestCaseInTempDir. This is default behavior
2654
on Windows. Anyone can force named dirs on Windows
2655
with ``--no-numbered-dirs``. (Alexander Belchenko)
2656
2657
* Fix ``RevisionSpec_revid`` to handle the Unicode strings passed in
2658
from the command line. (Marien Zwart, #90501)
2659
2660
* Fix ``TreeTransform._iter_changes`` when both the source and
2661
destination are missing. (Aaron Bentley, #88842)
2662
2663
* Fix commit of merges with symlinks in dirstate trees.
2664
(Marien Zwart)
2665
2666
* Switch the ``bzr init-repo`` default from --no-trees to --trees.

bzr 0.15rc1 2007-03-07
2671
-----------------------
2672
2673
SURPRISES:
2674
2675
* The default disk format has changed. Please run 'bzr upgrade' in your
2676
working trees to upgrade. This new default is compatible for network
2677
operations, but not for local operations. That is, if you have two
2678
versions of bzr installed locally, after upgrading you can only use the
2679
bzr 0.15 version. This new default does not enable tags or nested-trees
2680
as they are incompatible with bzr versions before 0.15 over the network.
2681
2682
* For users of bzrlib: Two major changes have been made to the working tree
2683
api in bzrlib. The first is that many methods and attributes, including
2684
the inventory attribute, are no longer valid for use until one of
2685
``lock_read``/``lock_write``/``lock_tree_write`` has been called,
2686
and become invalid again after unlock is called. This has been done
2687
to improve performance and correctness as part of the dirstate
2688
development.
2689
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
2690
2691
* For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
2692
readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
2693
its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
2694
unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
2695
format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
2696
cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
2697
combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API. (Robert
2698
Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
2699
2700
IMPROVEMENTS:
2701
2702
* Support for OS Windows 98. Also .bzr.log on any windows system
2703
saved in My Documents folder. (Alexander Belchenko)
2704
2705
* ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
2706
In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
2707
exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
2708
already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
2709
does exist.
2710
A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
2711
exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
2712
and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
2713
will only update the Bazaar identifier.
2714
(Steffen Eichenberg, Marius Kruger)
2715
2716
* ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
2717
(Aaron Bentley)
2718
2719
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
2720
(Aaron Bentley)
2721
2722
* ``bzr pull --overwrite`` will now correctly overwrite checkouts.
2723
(Robert Collins)
2724
2725
* Files are now allowed to change kind (e.g. from file to symlink).
2726
Supported by ``commit``, ``revert`` and ``status``
2727
(Aaron Bentley)
2728
2729
* ``inventory`` and ``unknowns`` hidden in favour of ``ls``
2730
(Aaron Bentley)
2731
2732
* ``bzr help checkouts`` descibes what checkouts are and some possible
2733
uses of them. (James Westby, Aaron Bentley)
2734
2735
* A new ``-d`` option to push, pull and merge overrides the default
2736
directory. (Martin Pool)
2737
2738
* Branch format 6: smaller, and potentially faster than format 5. Supports
2739
``append_history_only`` mode, where the log view and revnos do not change,
2740
except by being added to. Stores policy settings in
2741
".bzr/branch/branch.conf".
2742
2743
* ``append_only`` branches: Format 6 branches may be configured so that log
2744
view and revnos are always consistent. Either create the branch using
2745
"bzr init --append-revisions-only" or edit the config file as descriped
2746
in docs/configuration.txt.
2747
2748
* rebind: Format 6 branches retain the last-used bind location, so if you
2749
"bzr unbind", you can "bzr bind" to bind to the previously-selected
2750
bind location.
2751
2752
* Builtin tags support, created and deleted by the ``tag`` command and
2753
stored in the branch. Tags can be accessed with the revisionspec
2754
``-rtag:``, and listed with ``bzr tags``. Tags are not versioned
2755
at present. Tags require a network incompatible upgrade. To perform this
2756
upgrade, run ``bzr upgrade --dirstate-tags`` in your branch and
2757
repositories. (Martin Pool)
2758
2759
* The ``bzr://`` transport now has a well-known port number, 4155,
2760
which it will use by default. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
2761
2762
* Bazaar now looks for user-installed plugins before looking for site-wide
2763
plugins. (Jonathan Lange)
2764
2765
* ``bzr resolve`` now detects and marks resolved text conflicts.
2766
(Aaron Bentley)
2767
2768
INTERNALS:
2769
2770
* Internally revision ids and file ids are now passed around as utf-8
2771
bytestrings, rather than treating them as Unicode strings. This has
2772
performance benefits for Knits, since we no longer need to decode the
2773
revision id for each line of content, nor for each entry in the index.
2774
This will also help with the future dirstate format.
2775
(John Arbash Meinel)
2776
2777
* Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
2778
versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
2779
(Aaron Bentley)
2780
2781
* Minor performance improvement by not creating a ProgressBar for
2782
every KnitIndex we create. (about 90ms for a bzr.dev tree)
2783
(John Arbash Meinel)
2784
2785
* New easier to use Branch hooks facility. There are five initial hooks,
2786
all documented in bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks.__init__ - ``'set_rh'``,
2787
``'post_push'``, ``'post_pull'``, ``'post_commit'``,
2788
``'post_uncommit'``. These hooks fire after the matching operation
2789
on a branch has taken place, and were originally added for the
2790
branchrss plugin. (Robert Collins)
2791
2792
* New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
2793
branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
2794
level command ``push``. (Robert Collins).
2795
2796
* Add a new method ``Tree.revision_tree`` which allows access to cached
2797
trees for arbitrary revisions. This allows the in development dirstate
2798
tree format to provide access to the callers to cached copies of
2799
inventory data which are cheaper to access than inventories from the
2800
repository.
2801
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
2802
2803
* New ``Branch.last_revision_info`` method, this is being done to allow
2804
optimization of requests for both the number of revisions and the last
2805
revision of a branch with smartservers and potentially future branch
2806
formats. (Wouter van Heyst, Robert Collins)
2807
2808
* Allow ``'import bzrlib.plugins.NAME'`` to work when the plugin NAME has not
2809
yet been loaded by ``load_plugins()``. This allows plugins to depend on each
2810
other for code reuse without requiring users to perform file-renaming
2811
gymnastics. (Robert Collins)
2812
2813
* New Repository method ``'gather_stats'`` for statistic data collection.
2814
This is expected to grow to cover a number of related uses mainly
2815
related to bzr info. (Robert Collins)
2816
2817
* Log formatters are now managed with a registry.
2818
``log.register_formatter`` continues to work, but callers accessing
2819
the FORMATTERS dictionary directly will not.
2820
2821
* Allow a start message to be passed to the ``edit_commit_message``
2822
function. This will be placed in the message offered to the user
2823
for editing above the separator. It allows a template commit message
2824
to be used more easily. (James Westby)
2825
2826
* ``GPGStrategy.sign()`` will now raise ``BzrBadParameterUnicode`` if
2827
you pass a Unicode string rather than an 8-bit string. Callers need
2828
to be updated to encode first. (John Arbash Meinel)
2829
2830
* Branch.push, pull, merge now return Result objects with information
2831
about what happened, rather than a scattering of various methods. These
2832
are also passed to the post hooks. (Martin Pool)
2833
2834
* File formats and architecture is in place for managing a forest of trees
2835
in bzr, and splitting up existing trees into smaller subtrees, and
2836
finally joining trees to make a larger tree. This is the first iteration
2837
of this support, and the user-facing aspects still require substantial
2838
work. If you wish to experiment with it, use ``bzr upgrade
2839
--dirstate-with-subtree`` in your working trees and repositories.
2840
You can use the hidden commands ``split`` and ``join`` and to create
2841
and manipulate nested trees, but please consider using the nested-trees
2842
branch, which contains substantial UI improvements, instead.

2844
(Aaron Bentley, Martin Pool, Robert Collins).
2845
2846
BUGFIXES:
2847
2848
* ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
2849
branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
2850
(John Arbash Meinel, #82158)
2851
2852
* Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
2853
(Aaron Bentley)
2854
2855
* ``bzr push`` can resume a push that was canceled before it finished.
2856
Also, it can push even if the target directory exists if you supply
2857
the ``--use-existing-dir`` flag.
2858
(John Arbash Meinel, #30576, #45504)
2859
2860
* Fix http proxy authentication when user and an optional
2861
password appears in the ``*_proxy`` vars. (Vincent Ladeuil,
2862
#83954).
2863
2864
* ``bzr log branch/file`` works for local treeless branches
2865
(Aaron Bentley, #84247)
2866
2867
* Fix problem with UNC paths on Windows 98. (Alexander Belchenko, #84728)
2868
2869
* Searching location of CA bundle for PyCurl in env variable
2870
(``CURL_CA_BUNDLE``), and on win32 along the PATH.
2871
(Alexander Belchenko, #82086)
2872
2873
* ``bzr init`` works with unicode argument LOCATION.
2874
(Alexander Belchenko, #85599)
2875
2876
* Raise ``DependencyNotPresent`` if pycurl do not support https.
2877
(Vincent Ladeuil, #85305)
2878
2879
* Invalid proxy env variables should not cause a traceback.
2880
(Vincent Ladeuil, #87765)
2881
2882
* Ignore patterns normalised to use '/' path separator.
2883
(Kent Gibson, #86451)
2884
2885
* bzr rocks. It sure does! Fix case. (Vincent Ladeuil, #78026)
2886
2887
* Fix bzrtools shelve command for removed lines beginning with "--"
2888
(Johan Dahlberg, #75577)
2889
2890
TESTING:
2891
2892
* New ``--first`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to run specified tests

IMPROVEMENTS:
2900
2901
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options. (Aaron Bentley)
2902
2903
BUG FIXES:
2904
2905
* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
2906
available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
2907
(John Arbash Meinel, #80330)
2908
2909
* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
2910
working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
2911
it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)

2914
bzr 0.14rc1 2007-01-16
2915
-----------------------
2916
2917
IMPROVEMENTS:
2918
2919
* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
2920
protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
2921
server, then you can write over the http connection.
2922
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
2923
2924
* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
2925
(Marius Kruger)
2926
2927
* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
2928
the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
2929
(and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)
2930
2931
* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
2932
succeed. (Aaron Bentley)
2933
2934
* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
2935
(Aaron Bentley)
2936
2937
* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
2938
of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
2939
off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
2940
of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
2941
filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
2942
calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)
2943
2944
* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
2945
inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
2946
should enable you to do::
2947
2948
[/home/user/project]
2949
push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
2950
push_location:policy = appendpath
2951
2952
And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
2953
automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
2954
(James Henstridge)
2955
2956
* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
2957
for each file. For example::
2958
2959
$ bzr status --short
2960
A foo
2961
A bar
2962
D baz
2963
? wooley
2964
2965
* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
2966
directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)
2967
2968
* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)
2969
2970
* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
2971
local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)
2972
2973
* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)
2974
2975
INTERNALS:
2976
2977
* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
2978
help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
2979
lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
2980
improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)
2981
2982
* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
2983
resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
2984
preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)
2985
2986
* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows. (Vincent Ladeuil)
2987
2988
* When ``encoding_type`` attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
2989
force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
2990
keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
2991
(Alexander Belchenko)
2992
2993
* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared. (Martin
2994
Pool)
2995
2996
* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
2997
that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)
2998
2999
* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)
3000
3001
BUG FIXES:
3002
3003
* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
3004
direction. (John Arbash Meinel)
3005
3006
* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
3007
revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
3008
supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
3009
``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
3010
revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)
3011
3012
* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. ``\HOST\path``.
3013
(Alexander Belchenko, #57869)
3014
3015
* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
3016
line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)
3017
3018
* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
3019
matcher.
3020
(Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)
3021
3022
* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
3023
the test suite to test more cases. Also detect http error code 416
3024
which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
3025
robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
3026
short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)
3027
3028
* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
3029
proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
3030
anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
3031
problem. (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)
3032
3033
* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
3034
(Aaron Bentley, #76229)
3035
3036
* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
3037
lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)
3038
3039
* Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
3040
(Wouter van Heyst, #31663)
3041
3042
* Allow plugins import from zip archives.

IMPROVEMENTS:
3055
3056
* New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
3057
tree from a branch.
3058
(Daniel Silverstone)
3059
3060
* urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
3061
operations are substantially faster.
3062
(Vincent Ladeuil, #53654)
3063
3064
* ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
3065
tree from some other url. For example:
3066
``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
3067
(Daniel Silverstone)
3068
3069
* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
3070
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
3071
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
3072
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)
3073
3074
* WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server. See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
3075
(Andrew Bennetts)
3076
3077
* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
3078
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
3079
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
3080
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
3081
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
3082
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)
3083
3084
INTERNALS:
3085
3086
* New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
3087
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
3088
(Martin Pool)
3089
3090
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
3091
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
3092
(John Arbash Meinel)
3093
3094
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
3095
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
3096
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
3097
(John Arbash Meinel)
3098
3099
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
3100
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
3101
3102
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on 'BzrDir' allows the detection of
3103
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
3104
3105
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
3106
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew
3107
Bennetts)
3108
3109
BUG FIXES:
3110
3111
* Now ``_KnitIndex`` properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
3112
And optimize the knit index parsing code.
3113
(Dmitry Vasiliev, John Arbash Meinel)
3114
3115
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
3116
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
3117
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
3118
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
3119
3120
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
3121
3122
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
3123
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
3124
3125
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
3126
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
3127
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
3128
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
3129
3130
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
3131
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
3132
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
3133
3134
* ``_KnitIndex.add_versions()`` dictionary compresses revision ids as they
3135
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
3136
them as full references rather than integers.
3137
(John Arbash Meinel, #64789)
3138
3139
* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
3140
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)
3141
3142
* ``bzr ignore`` takes multiple arguments. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #29488)
3143
3144
* mv correctly handles paths that traverse symlinks.
3145
(Aaron Bentley, #66964)
3146
3147
* Give nicer looking error messages when failing to connect over ssh.
3148
(John Arbash Meinel, #49172)
3149
3150
* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
3151
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
3152
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
3153
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
3154
3155
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
3156
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
3157
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
3158
3159
* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
3160
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
3161
3162
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
3163
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
3164
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
3165
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.
3166
(Cheuksan Edward Wang, #30190)
3167
3168
TESTING:
3169
3170
* TestingHTTPRequestHandler really handles the Range header
3171
(previously it was ignoring it and returning the whole file,).

3183
-----------------------
3184
3185
IMPROVEMENTS:
3186
3187
* ``bzr log`` now shows dotted-decimal revision numbers for all revisions,
3188
rather than just showing a decimal revision number for revisions on the
3189
mainline. These revision numbers are not yet accepted as input into bzr
3190
commands such as log, diff etc. (Robert Collins)
3191
3192
* revisions can now be specified using dotted-decimal revision numbers.
3193
For instance, ``bzr diff -r 1.2.1..1.2.3``. (Robert Collins)
3194
3195
* ``bzr help commands`` output is now shorter (Aaron Bentley)
3196
3197
* ``bzr`` now uses lazy importing to reduce the startup time. This has
3198
a moderate effect on lots of actions, especially ones that have
3199
little to do. For example ``bzr rocks`` time is down to 116ms from
3200
283ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
3201
3202
* New Registry class to provide name-to-object registry-like support,
3203
for example for schemes where plugins can register new classes to
3204
do certain tasks (e.g. log formatters). Also provides lazy registration
3205
to allow modules to be loaded on request.
3206
(John Arbash Meinel, Adeodato Simó)
3207
3208
API INCOMPATABILITY:
3209
3210
* LogFormatter subclasses show now expect the 'revno' parameter to
3211
show() to be a string rather than an int. (Robert Collins)
3212
3213
INTERNALS:
3214
3215
* ``TestCase.run_bzr``, ``run_bzr_captured``, and ``run_bzr_subprocess``
3216
can take a ``working_dir='foo'`` parameter, which will change directory
3217
for the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
3218
3219
* ``bzrlib.lazy_regex.lazy_compile`` can be used to create a proxy
3220
around a regex, which defers compilation until first use.
3221
(John Arbash Meinel)
3222
3223
* ``TestCase.run_bzr_subprocess`` defaults to supplying the
3224
``--no-plugins`` parameter to ensure test reproducability, and avoid
3225
problems with system-wide installed plugins. (John Arbash Meinel)
3226
3227
* Unique tree root ids are now supported. Newly created trees still
3228
use the common root id for compatibility with bzr versions before 0.12.
3229
(Aaron Bentley)
3230
3231
* ``WorkingTree.set_root_id(None)`` is now deprecated. Please
3232
pass in ``inventory.ROOT_ID`` if you want the default root id value.
3233
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
3234
3235
* New method ``WorkingTree.flush()`` which will write the current memory
3236
inventory out to disk. At the same time, ``read_working_inventory`` will
3237
no longer trash the current tree inventory if it has been modified within
3238
the current lock, and the tree will now ``flush()`` automatically on
3239
``unlock()``. ``WorkingTree.set_root_id()`` has been updated to take
3240
advantage of this functionality. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
3241
3242
* ``bzrlib.tsort.merge_sorted`` now accepts ``generate_revnos``. This
3243
parameter will cause it to add another column to its output, which
3244
contains the dotted-decimal revno for each revision, as a tuple.
3245
(Robert Collins)
3246
3247
* ``LogFormatter.show_merge`` is deprecated in favour of
3248
``LogFormatter.show_merge_revno``. (Robert Collins)
3249
3250
BUG FIXES:
3251
3252
* Avoid circular imports by creating a deprecated function for
3253
``bzrlib.tree.RevisionTree``. Callers should have been using
3254
``bzrlib.revisontree.RevisionTree`` anyway. (John Arbash Meinel,
3255
#63360, #66349)
3256
3257
* Don't use ``socket.MSG_WAITALL`` as it doesn't exist on all
3258
platforms. (Martin Pool, #66356)
3259
3260
* Don't require ``Content-Type`` in range responses. Assume they are a
3261
single range if ``Content-Type`` does not exist.
3262
(John Arbash Meinel, #62473)
3263
3264
* bzr branch/pull no longer complain about progress bar cleanup when
3265
interrupted during fetch. (Aaron Bentley, #54000)
3266
3267
* ``WorkingTree.set_parent_trees()`` uses the trees to directly write
3268
the basis inventory, rather than going through the repository. This
3269
allows us to have 1 inventory read, and 2 inventory writes when
3270
committing a new tree. (John Arbash Meinel)
3271
3272
* When reverting, files that are not locally modified that do not exist
3273
in the target are deleted, not just unversioned (Aaron Bentley)
3274
3275
* When trying to acquire a lock, don't fail immediately. Instead, try
3276
a few times (up to 1 hour) before timing out. Also, report why the
3277
lock is unavailable (John Arbash Meinel, #43521, #49556)
3278
3279
* Leave HttpTransportBase daughter classes decides how they
3280
implement cloning. (Vincent Ladeuil, #61606)
3281
3282
* diff3 does not indicate conflicts on clean merge. (Aaron Bentley)
3283
3284
* If a commit fails, the commit message is stored in a file at the root of
3285
the tree for later commit. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, Stefan Metzmacher,
3286
#32054)
3287
3288
TESTING:
3289
3290
* New test base class TestCaseWithMemoryTransport offers memory-only
3291
testing facilities: its not suitable for tests that need to mutate disk
3292
state, but most tests should not need that and should be converted to
3293
TestCaseWithMemoryTransport. (Robert Collins)
3294
3295
* ``TestCase.make_branch_and_memory_tree`` now takes a format
3296
option to set the BzrDir, Repository and Branch formats of the
3297
created objects. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
3298
3299
bzr 0.11 2006-10-02
3300
--------------------
3301
3302
* Smart server transport test failures on windows fixed. (Lukáš Lalinský).
3303
3304
bzr 0.11rc2 2006-09-27
3305
-----------------------
3306
3307
BUG FIXES:
3308
3309
* Test suite hangs on windows fixed. (Andrew Bennets, Alexander Belchenko).
3310
3311
* Commit performance regression fixed. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, John
3312
Arbash Meinel).
3313
3314
bzr 0.11rc1 2006-09-25
3315
-----------------------
3316
3317
IMPROVEMENTS:
3318
3319
* Knit files now wait to create their contents until the first data is
3320
added. The old code used to create an empty .knit and a .kndx with just
3321
the header. However, this caused a lot of extra round trips over sftp.
3322
This can change the time for ``bzr push`` to create a new remote branch
3323
from 160s down to 100s. This also affects ``bzr commit`` performance when
3324
adding new files, ``bzr commit`` on a new kernel-like tree drops from 50s
3325
down to 40s (John Arbash Meinel, #44692)
3326
3327
* When an entire subtree has been deleted, commit will now report that
3328
just the top of the subtree has been deleted, rather than reporting
3329
all the individual items. (Robert Collins)
3330
3331
* Commit performs one less XML parse. (Robert Collins)
3332
3333
* ``bzr checkout`` now operates on readonly branches as well
3334
as readwrite branches. This fixes bug #39542. (Robert Collins)
3335
3336
* ``bzr bind`` no longer synchronises history with the master branch.
3337
Binding should be followed by an update or push to synchronise the
3338
two branches. This is closely related to the fix for bug #39542.
3339
(Robert Collins)
3340
3341
* ``bzrlib.lazy_import.lazy_import`` function to create on-demand
3342
objects. This allows all imports to stay at the global scope, but
3343
modules will not actually be imported if they are not used.
3344
(John Arbash Meinel)
3345
3346
* Support ``bzr://`` and ``bzr+ssh://`` urls to work with the new RPC-based
3347
transport which will be used with the upcoming high-performance smart
3348
server. The new command ``bzr serve`` will invoke bzr in server mode,
3349
which processes these requests. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, Martin
3350
Pool)
3351
3352
* New command ``bzr version-info`` which can be used to get a summary
3353
of the current state of the tree. This is especially useful as part
3354
of a build commands. See ``doc/version_info.txt`` for more information
3355
(John Arbash Meinel)
3356
3357
BUG FIXES:
3358
3359
* ``'bzr inventory [FILE...]'`` allows restricting the file list to a
3360
specific set of files. (John Arbash Meinel, #3631)
3361
3362
* Don't abort when annotating empty files (John Arbash Meinel, #56814)
3363
3364
* Add ``Stanza.to_unicode()`` which can be passed to another Stanza
3365
when nesting stanzas. Also, add ``read_stanza_unicode`` to handle when
3366
reading a nested Stanza. (John Arbash Meinel)
3367
3368
* Transform._set_mode() needs to stat the right file.
3369
(John Arbash Meinel, #56549)
3370
3371
* Raise WeaveFormatError rather than StopIteration when trying to read
3372
an empty Weave file. (John Arbash Meinel, #46871)
3373
3374
* Don't access e.code for generic URLErrors, only HTTPErrors have .code.
3375
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59835)
3376
3377
* Handle boundary="" lines properly to allow access through a Squid proxy.
3378
(John Arbash Meinel, #57723)
3379
3380
* revert now removes newly-added directories (Aaron Bentley, #54172)
3381
3382
* ``bzr upgrade sftp://`` shouldn't fail to upgrade v6 branches if there
3383
isn't a working tree. (David Allouche, #40679)
3384
3385
* Give nicer error messages when a user supplies an invalid --revision
3386
parameter. (John Arbash Meinel, #55420)
3387
3388
* Handle when LANG is not recognized by python. Emit a warning, but
3389
just revert to using 'ascii'. (John Arbash Meinel, #35392)
3390
3391
* Don't use ``preexec_fn`` on win32, as it is not supported by subprocess.
3392
(John Arbash Meinel)
3393
3394
* Skip specific tests when the dependencies aren't met. This includes
3395
some ``setup.py`` tests when ``python-dev`` is not available, and
3396
some tests that depend on paramiko. (John Arbash Meinel, Mattheiu Moy)
3397
3398
* Fallback to Paramiko properly, if no ``ssh`` executable exists on
3399
the system. (Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
3400
3401
* ``Branch.bind(other_branch)`` no longer takes a write lock on the
3402
other branch, and will not push or pull between the two branches.
3403
API users will need to perform a push or pull or update operation if they
3404
require branch synchronisation to take place. (Robert Collins, #47344)
3405
3406
* When creating a tarball or zipfile export, export unicode names as utf-8
3407
paths. This may not work perfectly on all platforms, but has the best
3408
chance of working in the common case. (John Arbash Meinel, #56816)
3409
3410
* When committing, only files that exist in working tree or basis tree
3411
may be specified (Aaron Bentley, #50793)
3412
3413
PORTABILITY:
3414
3415
* Fixes to run on Python 2.5 (Brian M. Carlson, Martin Pool, Marien Zwart)
3416
3417
INTERNALS:
3418
3419
* TestCaseInTempDir now creates a separate directory for HOME, rather
3420
than having HOME set to the same location as the working directory.
3421
(John Arbash Meinel)
3422
3423
* ``run_bzr_subprocess()`` can take an optional ``env_changes={}`` parameter,
3424
which will update os.environ inside the spawned child. It also can
3425
take a ``universal_newlines=True``, which helps when checking the output
3426
of the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
3427
3428
* Refactor SFTP vendors to allow easier re-use when ssh is used.
3429
(Andrew Bennetts)
3430
3431
* ``Transport.list_dir()`` and ``Transport.iter_files_recursive()`` should always
3432
return urlescaped paths. This is now tested (there were bugs in a few
3433
of the transports) (Andrew Bennetts, David Allouche, John Arbash Meinel)
3434
3435
* New utility function ``symbol_versioning.deprecation_string``. Returns the
3436
formatted string for a callable, deprecation format pair. (Robert Collins)
3437
3438
* New TestCase helper applyDeprecated. This allows you to call a callable
3439
which is deprecated without it spewing to the screen, just by supplying
3440
the deprecation format string issued for it. (Robert Collins)
3441
3442
* Transport.append and Transport.put have been deprecated in favor of
3443
``.append_bytes``, ``.append_file``, ``.put_bytes``, and
3444
``.put_file``. This removes the ambiguity in what type of object the
3445
functions take. ``Transport.non_atomic_put_{bytes,file}`` has also
3446
been added. Which works similarly to ``Transport.append()`` except for
3447
SFTP, it doesn't have a round trip when opening the file. Also, it
3448
provides functionality for creating a parent directory when trying
3449
to create a file, rather than raise NoSuchFile and forcing the
3450
caller to repeat their request.
3451
(John Arbash Meinel)
3452
3453
* WorkingTree has a new api ``unversion`` which allow the unversioning of
3454
entries by their file id. (Robert Collins)
3455
3456
* ``WorkingTree.pending_merges`` is deprecated. Please use the
3457
``get_parent_ids`` (introduced in 0.10) method instead. (Robert Collins)
3458
3459
* WorkingTree has a new ``lock_tree_write`` method which locks the branch for
3460
read rather than write. This is appropriate for actions which only need
3461
the branch data for reference rather than mutation. A new decorator
3462
``needs_tree_write_lock`` is provided in the workingtree module. Like the
3463
``needs_read_lock`` and ``needs_write_lock`` decorators this allows static
3464
declaration of the locking requirements of a function to ensure that
3465
a lock is taken out for casual scripts. (Robert Collins, #54107)
3466
3467
* All WorkingTree methods which write to the tree, but not to the branch
3468
have been converted to use ``needs_tree_write_lock`` rather than
3469
``needs_write_lock``. Also converted is the revert, conflicts and tree
3470
transform modules. This provides a modest performance improvement on
3471
metadir style trees, due to the reduce lock-acquisition, and a more
3472
significant performance improvement on lightweight checkouts from
3473
remote branches, where trivial operations used to pay a significant
3474
penalty. It also provides the basis for allowing readonly checkouts.
3475
(Robert Collins)
3476
3477
* Special case importing the standard library 'copy' module. This shaves
3478
off 40ms of startup time, while retaining compatibility. See:
3479
``bzrlib/inspect_for_copy.py`` for more details. (John Arbash Meinel)
3480
3481
* WorkingTree has a new parent class MutableTree which represents the
3482
specialisations of Tree which are able to be altered. (Robert Collins)
3483
3484
* New methods mkdir and ``put_file_bytes_non_atomic`` on MutableTree that
3485
mutate the tree and its contents. (Robert Collins)
3486
3487
* Transport behaviour at the root of the URL is now defined and tested.
3488
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
3489
3490
TESTING:
3491
3492
* New test helper classs MemoryTree. This is typically accessed via
3493
``self.make_branch_and_memory_tree()`` in test cases. (Robert Collins)
3494
3495
* Add ``start_bzr_subprocess`` and ``stop_bzr_subprocess`` to allow test
3496
code to continue running concurrently with a subprocess of bzr.
3497
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
3498
3499
* Add a new method ``Transport.get_smart_client()``. This is provided to
3500
allow upgrades to a richer interface than the VFS one provided by
3501
Transport. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
3502
3503
bzr 0.10 2006-08-29
3504
--------------------
3505
3506
IMPROVEMENTS:
3507
* 'merge' now takes --uncommitted, to apply uncommitted changes from a
3508
tree. (Aaron Bentley)
3509
3510
* 'bzr add --file-ids-from' can be used to specify another path to use
3511
for creating file ids, rather than generating all new ones. Internally,
3512
the 'action' passed to ``smart_add_tree()`` can return ``file_ids`` that
3513
will be used, rather than having bzrlib generate new ones.
3514
(John Arbash Meinel, #55781)
3515
3516
* ``bzr selftest --benchmark`` now allows a ``--cache-dir`` parameter.
3517
This will cache some of the intermediate trees, and decrease the
3518
setup time for benchmark tests. (John Arbash Meinel)
3519
3520
* Inverse forms are provided for all boolean options. For example,
3521
--strict has --no-strict, --no-recurse has --recurse (Aaron Bentley)
3522
3523
* Serialize out Inventories directly, rather than using ElementTree.
3524
Writing out a kernel sized inventory drops from 2s down to ~350ms.
3525
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
3526
3527
BUG FIXES:
3528
3529
* Help diffutils 2.8.4 get along with binary tests (Marien Zwart: #57614)
3530
3531
* Change LockDir so that if the lock directory doesn't exist when
3532
``lock_write()`` is called, an attempt will be made to create it.
3533
(John Arbash Meinel, #56974)
3534
3535
* ``bzr uncommit`` preserves pending merges. (John Arbash Meinel, #57660)
3536
3537
* Active FTP transport now works as intended. (ghozzy, #56472)
3538
3539
* Really fix mutter() so that it won't ever raise a UnicodeError.
3540
It means it is possible for ~/.bzr.log to contain non UTF-8 characters.
3541
But it is a debugging log, not a real user file.
3542
(John Arbash Meinel, #56947, #53880)
3543
3544
* Change Command handle to allow Unicode command and options.
3545
At present we cannot register Unicode command names, so we will get
3546
BzrCommandError('unknown command'), or BzrCommandError('unknown option')
3547
But that is better than a UnicodeError + a traceback.
3548
(John Arbash Meinel, #57123)
3549
3550
* Handle TZ=UTC properly when reading/writing revisions.
3551
(John Arbash Meinel, #55783, #56290)
3552
3553
* Use ``GPG_TTY`` to allow gpg --cl to work with gpg-agent in a pipeline,
3554
(passing text to sign in on stdin). (John Arbash Meinel, #54468)
3555
3556
* External diff does the right thing for binaries even in foreign
3557
languages. (John Arbash Meinel, #56307)
3558
3559
* Testament handles more cases when content is unicode. Specific bug was
3560
in handling of revision properties.
3561
(John Arbash Meinel, Holger Krekel, #54723)
3562
3563
* The bzr selftest was failing on installed versions due to a bug in a new
3564
test helper. (John Arbash Meinel, Robert Collins, #58057)
3565
3566
INTERNALS:
3567
3568
* ``bzrlib.cache_utf8`` contains ``encode()`` and ``decode()`` functions
3569
which can be used to cache the conversion between utf8 and Unicode.
3570
Especially helpful for some of the knit annotation code, which has to
3571
convert revision ids to utf8 to annotate lines in storage.
3572
(John Arbash Meinel)
3573
3574
* ``setup.py`` now searches the filesystem to find all packages which
3575
need to be installed. This should help make the life of packagers
3576
easier. (John Arbash Meinel)
3577
3578
bzr 0.9.0 2006-08-11
3579
---------------------
3580
3581
SURPRISES:
3582
3583
* The hard-coded built-in ignore rules have been removed. There are
3584
now two rulesets which are enforced. A user global one in
3585
``~/.bazaar/ignore`` which will apply to every tree, and the tree
3586
specific one '.bzrignore'.
3587
``~/.bazaar/ignore`` will be created if it does not exist, but with
3588
a more conservative list than the old default.
3589
This fixes bugs with default rules being enforced no matter what.
3590
The old list of ignore rules from bzr is available by
3591
running 'bzr ignore --old-default-rules'.
3592
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool, John Arbash Meinel)
3593
3594
* 'branches.conf' has been changed to 'locations.conf', since it can apply
3595
to more locations than just branch locations.
3596
(Aaron Bentley)
3597
3598
IMPROVEMENTS:
3599
3600
* The revision specifier "revno:" is extended to accept the syntax
3601
revno:N:branch. For example,
3602
revno:42:http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/ means revision 42 in
3603
bzr.dev. (Matthieu Moy)
3604
3605
* Tests updates to ensure proper URL handling, UNICODE support, and
3606
proper printing when the user's terminal encoding cannot display
3607
the path of a file that has been versioned.
3608
``bzr branch`` can take a target URL rather than only a local directory.
3609
``Branch.get_parent()/set_parent()`` now save a relative path if possible,
3610
and normalize the parent based on root, allowing access across
3611
different transports. (John Arbash Meinel, Wouter van Heyst, Martin Pool)
3612
(Malone #48906, #42699, #40675, #5281, #3980, #36363, #43689,
3613
#42517, #42514)
3614
3615
* On Unix, detect terminal width using an ioctl not just $COLUMNS.
3616
Use terminal width for single-line logs from ``bzr log --line`` and
3617
pending-merge display. (Robert Widhopf-Fenk, Gustavo Niemeyer)
3618
(Malone #3507)
3619
3620
* On Windows, detect terminal width using GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo.
3621
(Alexander Belchenko)
3622
3623
* Speedup improvement for 'date:'-revision search. (Guillaume Pinot).
3624
3625
* Show the correct number of revisions pushed when pushing a new branch.
3626
(Robert Collins).
3627
3628
* 'bzr selftest' now shows a progress bar with the number of tests, and
3629
progress made. 'make check' shows tests in -v mode, to be more useful
3630
for the PQM status window. (Robert Collins).
3631
When using a progress bar, failed tests are printed out, rather than
3632
being overwritten by the progress bar until the suite finishes.
3633
(John Arbash Meinel)
3634
3635
* 'bzr selftest --benchmark' will run a new benchmarking selftest.
3636
'bzr selftest --benchmark --lsprof-timed' will use lsprofile to generate
3637
profile data for the individual profiled calls, allowing for fine
3638
grained analysis of performance.
3639
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
3640
3641
* 'bzr commit' shows a progress bar. This is useful for commits over sftp
3642
where commit can take an appreciable time. (Robert Collins)
3643
3644
* 'bzr add' is now less verbose in telling you what ignore globs were
3645
matched by files being ignored. Instead it just tells you how many
3646
were ignored (because you might reasonably be expecting none to be
3647
ignored). 'bzr add -v' is unchanged and will report every ignored
3648
file. (Robert Collins).
3649
3650
* ftp now has a test server if medusa is installed. As part of testing,
3651
ftp support has been improved, including support for supplying a
3652
non-standard port. (John Arbash Meinel).
3653
3654
* 'bzr log --line' shows the revision number, and uses only the
3655
first line of the log message (#5162, Alexander Belchenko;

3657
3658
* 'bzr status' has had the --all option removed. The 'bzr ls' command
3659
should be used to retrieve all versioned files. (Robert Collins)
3660
3661
* 'bzr bundle OTHER/BRANCH' will create a bundle which can be sent
3662
over email, and applied on the other end, while maintaining ancestry.
3663
This bundle can be applied with either 'bzr merge' or 'bzr pull',
3664
the same way you would apply another branch.
3665
(John Arbash Meinel, Aaron Bentley)
3666
3667
* 'bzr whoami' can now be used to set your identity from the command line,
3668
for a branch or globally. (Robey Pointer)
3669
3670
* 'bzr checkout' now aliased to 'bzr co', and 'bzr annotate' to 'bzr ann'.
3671
(Michael Ellerman)
3672
3673
* 'bzr revert DIRECTORY' now reverts the contents of the directory as well.
3674
(Aaron Bentley)
3675
3676
* 'bzr get sftp://foo' gives a better error when paramiko is not present.
3677
Also updates things like 'http+pycurl://' if pycurl is not present.
3678
(John Arbash Meinel) (Malone #47821, #52204)
3679
3680
* New env variable ``BZR_PROGRESS_BAR``, sets the default progress bar type.
3681
Can be set to 'none' or 'dummy' to disable the progress bar, 'dots' or
3682
'tty' to create the respective type. (John Arbash Meinel, #42197, #51107)
3683
3684
* Improve the help text for 'bzr diff' to explain what various options do.
3685
(John Arbash Meinel, #6391)
3686
3687
* 'bzr uncommit -r 10' now uncommits revisions 11.. rather than uncommitting
3688
revision 10. This makes -r10 more in line with what other commands do.
3689
'bzr uncommit' also now saves the pending merges of the revisions that
3690
were removed. So it is safe to uncommit after a merge, fix something,
3691
and commit again. (John Arbash Meinel, #32526, #31426)
3692
3693
* 'bzr init' now also works on remote locations.
3694
(Wouter van Heyst, #48904)
3695
3696
* HTTP support has been updated. When using pycurl we now support
3697
connection keep-alive, which reduces dns requests and round trips.
3698
And for both urllib and pycurl we support multi-range requests,
3699
which decreases the number of round-trips. Performance results for
3700
``bzr branch http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/`` indicate
3701
http branching is now 2-3x faster, and ``bzr pull`` in an existing
3702
branch is as much as 4x faster.
3703
(Michael Ellerman, Johan Rydberg, John Arbash Meinel, #46768)
3704
3705
* Performance improvements for sftp. Branching and pulling are now up to
3706
2x faster. Utilize paramiko.readv() support for async requests if it
3707
is available (paramiko > 1.6) (John Arbash Meinel)
3708
3709
BUG FIXES:
3710
3711
* Fix shadowed definition of TestLocationConfig that caused some
3712
tests not to run.
3713
(Erik Bågfors, Michael Ellerman, Martin Pool, #32587)
3714
3715
* Fix unnecessary requirement of sign-my-commits that it be run from
3716
a working directory. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3717
3718
* 'bzr push location' will only remember the push location if it succeeds
3719
in connecting to the remote location. (John Arbash Meinel, #49742)
3720
3721
* 'bzr revert' no longer toggles the executable bit on win32
3722
(John Arbash Meinel, #45010)
3723
3724
* Handle broken pipe under win32 correctly. (John Arbash Meinel)
3725
3726
* sftp tests now work correctly on win32 if you have a newer paramiko
3727
(John Arbash Meinel)
3728
3729
* Cleanup win32 test suite, and general cleanup of places where
3730
file handles were being held open. (John Arbash Meinel)
3731
3732
* When specifying filenames for 'diff -r x..y', the name of the file in the
3733
working directory can be used, even if its name is different in both x
3734
and y.
3735
3736
* File-ids containing single- or double-quotes are handled correctly by
3737
push. (Aaron Bentley, #52227)
3738
3739
* Normalize unicode filenames to ensure cross-platform consistency.
3740
(John Arbash Meinel, #43689)
3741
3742
* The argument parser can now handle '-' as an argument. Currently
3743
no code interprets it specially (it is mostly handled as a file named
3744
'-'). But plugins, and future operations can use it.
3745
(John Arbash meinel, #50984)
3746
3747
* Bundles can properly read binary files with a plain '\r' in them.
3748
(John Arbash Meinel, #51927)
3749
3750
* Tuning ``iter_entries()`` to be more efficient (John Arbash Meinel, #5444)
3751
3752
* Lots of win32 fixes (the test suite passes again).
3753
(John Arbash Meinel, #50155)
3754
3755
* Handle openbsd returning None for sys.getfilesystemencoding() (#41183)
3756
3757
* Support ftp APPE (append) to allow Knits to be used over ftp (#42592)
3758
3759
* Removals are only committed if they match the filespec (or if there is
3760
no filespec). (#46635, Aaron Bentley)
3761
3762
* smart-add recurses through all supplied directories
3763
(John Arbash Meinel, #52578)
3764
3765
* Make the bundle reader extra lines before and after the bundle text.
3766
This allows you to parse an email with the bundle inline.
3767
(John Arbash Meinel, #49182)
3768
3769
* Change the file id generator to squash a little bit more. Helps when
3770
working with long filenames on windows. (Also helps for unicode filenames
3771
not generating hidden files). (John Arbash Meinel, #43801)
3772
3773
* Restore terminal mode on C-c while reading sftp password. (#48923,
3774
Nicholas Allen, Martin Pool)
3775
3776
* Timestamps are rounded to 1ms, and revision entries can be recreated
3777
exactly. (John Arbash Meinel, Jamie Wilkinson, #40693)
3778
3779
* Branch.base has changed to a URL, but ~/.bazaar/locations.conf should
3780
use local paths, since it is user visible (John Arbash Meinel, #53653)
3781
3782
* ``bzr status foo`` when foo was unversioned used to cause a full delta
3783
to be generated (John Arbash Meinel, #53638)
3784
3785
* When reading revision properties, an empty value should be considered
3786
the empty string, not None (John Arbash Meinel, #47782)
3787
3788
* ``bzr diff --diff-options`` can now handle binary files being changed.
3789
Also, the output is consistent when --diff-options is not supplied.
3790
(John Arbash Meinel, #54651, #52930)
3791
3792
* Use the right suffixes for loading plugins (John Arbash Meinel, #51810)
3793
3794
* Fix ``Branch.get_parent()`` to handle the case when the parent is not
3795
accessible (John Arbash Meinel, #52976)
3796
3797
INTERNALS:
3798
3799
* Combine the ignore rules into a single regex rather than looping over
3800
them to reduce the threshold where N^2 behaviour occurs in operations
3801
like status. (Jan Hudec, Robert Collins).
3802
3803
* Appending to ``bzrlib.DEFAULT_IGNORE`` is now deprecated. Instead, use
3804
one of the add functions in bzrlib.ignores. (John Arbash Meinel)
3805
3806
* 'bzr push' should only push the ancestry of the current revision, not
3807
all of the history in the repository. This is especially important for
3808
shared repositories. (John Arbash Meinel)
3809
3810
* ``bzrlib.delta.compare_trees`` now iterates in alphabetically sorted order,
3811
rather than randomly walking the inventories. (John Arbash Meinel)
3812
3813
* Doctests are now run in temporary directories which are cleaned up when
3814
they finish, rather than using special ScratchDir/ScratchBranch objects.
3815
(Martin Pool)
3816
3817
* Split ``check`` into separate methods on the branch and on the repository,
3818
so that it can be specialized in ways that are useful or efficient for
3819
different formats. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3820
3821
* Deprecate ``Repository.all_revision_ids``; most methods don't really need
3822
the global revision graph but only that part leading up to a particular
3823
revision. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3824
3825
* Add a BzrDirFormat ``control_formats`` list which allows for control formats
3826
that do not use '.bzr' to store their data - i.e. '.svn', '.hg' etc.
3827
(Robert Collins, Jelmer Vernooij).
3828
3829
* ``bzrlib.diff.external_diff`` can be redirected to any file-like object.
3830
Uses subprocess instead of spawnvp.
3831
(James Henstridge, John Arbash Meinel, #4047, #48914)
3832
3833
* New command line option '--profile-imports', which will install a custom
3834
importer to log time to import modules and regex compilation time to
3835
sys.stderr (John Arbash Meinel)
3836
3837
* 'EmptyTree' is now deprecated, please use ``repository.revision_tree(None)``
3838
instead. (Robert Collins)
3839
3840
* "RevisionTree" is now in bzrlib/revisiontree.py. (Robert Collins)

* Fix failure to commit a merge in a checkout. (Martin Pool,
3855
Robert Collins, Erik Bågfors, #43959)
3856
3857
* Nicer messages from 'commit' in the case of renames, and correct
3858
messages when a merge has occured. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3859
3860
* Separate functionality from assert statements as they are skipped in
3861
optimized mode of python. Add the same check to pending merges.

3872
3873
CHANGES:
3874
3875
* Make editor invocation comply with Debian Policy. First check
3876
environment variables VISUAL and EDITOR, then try editor from
3877
alternatives system. If that all fails, fall back to the pre-defined
3878
list of editors. (Olaf Conradi, #42904)
3879
3880
NEW FEATURES:
3881
3882
* New 'register-branch' command registers a public branch into
3883
Launchpad.net, where it can be associated with bugs, etc.
3884
(Martin Pool, Bjorn Tillenius, Robert Collins)
3885
3886
INTERNALS:
3887
3888
* New public api in InventoryEntry - ``describe_change(old, new)`` which

new. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3891
3892
TESTING:

3897
bzr 0.8 2006-05-08
3898
-------------------
3899
3900
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
3901
3902
Release 0.8 of bzr introduces a new format for history storage, called
3903
'knit', as an evolution of to the 'weave' format used in 0.7. Local
3904
and remote operations are faster using knits than weaves. Several
3905
operations including 'init', 'init-repo', and 'upgrade' take a
3906
--format option that controls this. Branching from an existing branch
3907
will keep the same format.
3908
3909
It is possible to merge, pull and push between branches of different
3910
formats but this is slower than moving data between homogenous
3911
branches. It is therefore recommended (but not required) that you
3912
upgrade all branches for a project at the same time. Information on
3913
formats is shown by 'bzr info'.
3914
3915
bzr 0.8 now allows creation of 'repositories', which hold the history
3916
of files and revisions for several branches. Previously bzr kept all
3917
the history for a branch within the .bzr directory at the root of the
3918
branch, and this is still the default. To create a repository, use
3919
the new 'bzr init-repo' command. Branches exist as directories under
3920
the repository and contain just a small amount of information
3921
indicating the current revision of the branch.
3922
3923
bzr 0.8 also supports 'checkouts', which are similar to in cvs and
3924
subversion. Checkouts are associated with a branch (optionally in a
3925
repository), which contains all the historical information. The
3926
result is that a checkout can be deleted without losing any
3927
already-committed revisions. A new 'update' command is also available.
3928
3929
Repositories and checkouts are not supported with the 0.7 storage
3930
format. To use them you must upgrad to either knits, or to the
3931
'metaweave' format, which uses weaves but changes the .bzr directory
3932
arrangement.
3933
3934
3935
IMPROVEMENTS:
3936
3937
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
3938
convention. Paths now take the form::
3939
3940
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
3941
or
3942
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
3943
3944
* The FTP transport now tries to reconnect after a temporary
3945
failure. ftp put is made atomic. (Matthieu Moy)
3946
3947
* The FTP transport now maintains a pool of connections, and
3948
reuses them to avoid multiple connections to the same host (like
3949
sftp did). (Daniel Silverstone)
3950
3951
* The ``bzr_man.py`` file has been removed. To create the man page now,
3952
use ``./generate_docs.py man``. The new program can also create other files.
3953
Run ``python generate_docs.py --help`` for usage information.
3954
(Hans Ulrich Niedermann & James Blackwell).
3955
3956
* Man Page now gives full help (James Blackwell).
3957
Help also updated to reflect user config now being stored in .bazaar
3958
(Hans Ulrich Niedermann)
3959
3960
* It's now possible to set aliases in bazaar.conf (Erik Bågfors)
3961
3962
* Pull now accepts a --revision argument (Erik Bågfors)
3963
3964
* ``bzr re-sign`` now allows multiple revisions to be supplied on the command
3965
line. You can now use the following command to sign all of your old
3966
commits::
3967
3968
find .bzr/revision-store// -name my@email-* \
3969
| sed 's/.*\/\/..\///' \
3970
| xargs bzr re-sign
3971
3972
* Upgrade can now upgrade over the network. (Robert Collins)
3973
3974
* Two new commands 'bzr checkout' and 'bzr update' allow for CVS/SVN-alike
3975
behaviour. By default they will cache history in the checkout, but
3976
with --lightweight almost all data is kept in the master branch.
3977
(Robert Collins)
3978
3979
* 'revert' unversions newly-versioned files, instead of deleting them.
3980
3981
* 'merge' is more robust. Conflict messages have changed.
3982
3983
* 'merge' and 'revert' no longer clobber existing files that end in '~' or
3984
'.moved'.
3985
3986
* Default log format can be set in configuration and plugins can register
3987
their own formatters. (Erik Bågfors)
3988
3989
* New 'reconcile' command will check branch consistency and repair indexes
3990
that can become out of sync in pre 0.8 formats. (Robert Collins,
3991
Daniel Silverstone)
3992
3993
* New 'bzr init --format' and 'bzr upgrade --format' option to control
3994
what storage format is created or produced. (Robert Collins,
3995
Martin Pool)
3996
3997
* Add parent location to 'bzr info', if there is one. (Olaf Conradi)
3998
3999
* New developer commands 'weave-list' and 'weave-join'. (Martin Pool)
4000
4001
* New 'init-repository' command, plus support for repositories in 'init'
4002
and 'branch' (Aaron Bentley, Erik Bågfors, Robert Collins)
4003
4004
* Improve output of 'info' command. Show all relevant locations related to
4005
working tree, branch and repository. Use kibibytes for binary quantities.
4006
Fix off-by-one error in missing revisions of working tree. Make 'info'
4007
work on branches, repositories and remote locations. Show locations
4008
relative to the shared repository, if applicable. Show locking status
4009
of locations. (Olaf Conradi)
4010
4011
* Diff and merge now safely handle binary files. (Aaron Bentley)
4012
4013
* 'pull' and 'push' now normalise the revision history, so that any two
4014
branches with the same tip revision will have the same output from 'log'.
4015
(Robert Collins)
4016
4017
* 'merge' accepts --remember option to store parent location, like 'push'
4018
and 'pull'. (Olaf Conradi)
4019
4020
* bzr status and diff when files given as arguments do not exist
4021
in the relevant trees. (Martin Pool, #3619)
4022
4023
* Add '.hg' to the default ignore list. (Martin Pool)
4024
4025
* 'knit' is now the default disk format. This improves disk performance and
4026
utilization, increases incremental pull performance, robustness with SFTP
4027
and allows checkouts over SFTP to perform acceptably.
4028
The initial Knit code was contributed by Johan Rydberg based on a
4029
specification by Martin Pool.
4030
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley, Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool).
4031
4032
* New tool to generate all-in-one html version of the manual. (Alexander
4033
Belchenko)
4034
4035
* Hitting CTRL-C while doing an SFTP push will no longer cause stale locks
4036
to be left in the SFTP repository. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
4037
4038
* New option 'diff --prefix' to control how files are named in diff
4039
output, with shortcuts '-p0' and '-p1' corresponding to the options for
4040
GNU patch. (Alexander Belchenko, Goffredo Baroncelli, Martin Pool)
4041
4042
* Add --revision option to 'annotate' command. (Olaf Conradi)
4043
4044
* If bzr shows an unexpected revision-history after pulling (perhaps due
4045
to a reweave) it can now be corrected by 'bzr reconcile'.
4046
(Robert Collins)
4047
4048
CHANGES:
4049
4050
* Commit is now verbose by default, and shows changed filenames and the
4051
new revision number. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
4052
4053
* Unify 'mv', 'move', 'rename'. (Matthew Fuller, #5379)
4054
4055
* 'bzr -h' shows help. (Martin Pool, Ian Bicking, #35940)
4056
4057
* Make 'pull' and 'push' remember location on failure using --remember.
4058
(Olaf Conradi)
4059
4060
* For compatibility, make old format for using weaves inside metadir
4061
available as 'metaweave' format. Rename format 'metadir' to 'default'.
4062
Clean up help for option --format in commands 'init', 'init-repo' and
4063
'upgrade'. (Olaf Conradi)
4064
4065
INTERNALS:
4066
4067
* The internal storage of history, and logical branch identity have now
4068
been split into Branch, and Repository. The common locking and file
4069
management routines are now in bzrlib.lockablefiles.
4070
(Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
4071
4072
* Transports can now raise DependencyNotPresent if they need a library
4073
which is not installed, and then another implementation will be
4074
tried. (Martin Pool)
4075
4076
* Remove obsolete (and no-op) `decode` parameter to `Transport.get`.
4077
(Martin Pool)
4078
4079
* Using Tree Transform for merge, revert, tree-building
4080
4081
* WorkingTree.create, Branch.create, ``WorkingTree.create_standalone``,
4082
Branch.initialize are now deprecated. Please see ``BzrDir.create_*`` for
4083
replacement API's. (Robert Collins)
4084
4085
* New BzrDir class represents the .bzr control directory and manages
4086
formatting issues. (Robert Collins)
4087
4088
* New repository.InterRepository class encapsulates Repository to
4089
Repository actions and allows for clean selection of optimised code
4090
paths. (Robert Collins)
4091
4092
* ``bzrlib.fetch.fetch`` and ``bzrlib.fetch.greedy_fetch`` are now
4093
deprecated, please use ``branch.fetch`` or ``repository.fetch``
4094
depending on your needs. (Robert Collins)
4095
4096
* deprecated methods now have a ``is_deprecated`` flag on them that can
4097
be checked, if you need to determine whether a given callable is
4098
deprecated at runtime. (Robert Collins)
4099
4100
* Progress bars are now nested - see
4101
``bzrlib.ui.ui_factory.nested_progress_bar``.
4102
(Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
4103
4104
* New API call ``get_format_description()`` for each type of format.
4105
(Olaf Conradi)
4106
4107
* Changed ``branch.set_parent()`` to accept None to remove parent.
4108
(Olaf Conradi)
4109
4110
* Deprecated BzrError AmbiguousBase. (Olaf Conradi)
4111
4112
* WorkingTree.branch is now a read only property. (Robert Collins)
4113
4114
* bzrlib.ui.text.TextUIFactory now accepts a ``bar_type`` parameter which
4115
can be None or a factory that will create a progress bar. This is
4116
useful for testing or for overriding the bzrlib.progress heuristic.
4117
(Robert Collins)
4118
4119
* New API method ``get_physical_lock_status()`` to query locks present on a
4120
transport. (Olaf Conradi)
4121
4122
* Repository.reconcile now takes a thorough keyword parameter to allow
4123
requesting an indepth reconciliation, rather than just a data-loss
4124
check. (Robert Collins)
4125
4126
* ``bzrlib.ui.ui_factory protocol`` now supports ``get_boolean`` to prompt
4127
the user for yes/no style input. (Robert Collins)
4128
4129
TESTING:
4130
4131
* SFTP tests now shortcut the SSH negotiation, reducing test overhead
4132
for testing SFTP protocol support. (Robey Pointer)
4133
4134
* Branch formats are now tested once per implementation (see ``bzrlib.
4135
tests.branch_implementations``. This is analagous to the transport
4136
interface tests, and has been followed up with working tree,
4137
repository and BzrDir tests. (Robert Collins)
4138
4139
* New test base class TestCaseWithTransport provides a transport aware
4140
test environment, useful for testing any transport-interface using
4141
code. The test suite option --transport controls the transport used
4142
by this class (when its not being used as part of implementation
4143
contract testing). (Robert Collins)
4144
4145
* Close logging handler on disabling the test log. This will remove the
4146
handler from the internal list inside python's logging module,
4147
preventing shutdown from closing it twice. (Olaf Conradi)
4148
4149
* Move test case for uncommit to blackbox tests. (Olaf Conradi)
4150
4151
* ``run_bzr`` and ``run_bzr_captured`` now accept a 'stdin="foo"'
4152
parameter which will provide String("foo") to the command as its stdin.
4153

bzr 0.7 2006-01-09
4155
------------------
4156
4157
CHANGES:
4158
4159
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
4160
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
4161
4162
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
4163
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
4164
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
4165
(Johan Rydberg)
4166
4167
* Under Windows configuration directory is now ``%APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0``
4168
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
4169
4170
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by ``BZR_HOME``
4171
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in ``BZR_HOME``,
4172
then in HOME. Under Windows the order is: ``BZR_HOME``, ``APPDATA``
4173
(usually points to ``C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data``),
4174
``HOME``. (John Arbash Meinel)
4175
4176
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
4177
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
4178
used. (Robert Collins)
4179
4180
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
4181
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
4182
(James Henstridge)
4183
4184
* Permissions on files underneath .bzr/ are inherited from the .bzr
4185
directory. So for a shared repository, simply doing 'chmod -R g+w .bzr/'
4186
will mean that future file will be created with group write permissions.
4187
4188
* configure.in and config.guess are no longer in the builtin default
4189
ignore list.
4190
4191
* '.sw[nop]' pattern ignored, to ignore vim swap files for nameless
4192
files. (John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool)
4193
4194
IMPROVEMENTS:
4195
4196
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
4197
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
4198
4199
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
4200
4201
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
4202
4203
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
4204
tree. (Robert Collins)
4205
4206
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
4207
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
4208
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
4209
(Robert Collins)
4210
4211
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
4212
that they be kept.
4213
4214
* Tweaks to short log printing
4215
4216
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
4217
(Aaron Bentley)
4218
4219
* If ``$BZR_PDB`` is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
4220
occurs. (Martin Pool)
4221
4222
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
4223
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
4224
4225
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
4226
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
4227
4228
* Commit editor temporary files now start with ``bzr_log.``, to allow
4229
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
4230
settings. (Magnus Therning)
4231
4232
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
4233
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
4234
4235
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
4236
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
4237
requests.
4238
4239
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
4240
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
4241
4242
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
4243
(Matthieu Moy, #3632)
4244
4245
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
4246
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
4247
4248
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
4249
(Denys Duchier)
4250
4251
* 'bzr add' now takes a --dry-run parameter which shows you what would be
4252
added, but doesn't actually add anything. (Michael Ellerman)
4253
4254
* 'bzr add' now lists how many files were ignored per glob. add --verbose
4255
lists the specific files. (Aaron Bentley)
4256
4257
* 'bzr missing' now supports displaying changes in diverged trees and can
4258
be limited to show what either end of the comparison is missing.
4259
(Aaron Bently, with a little prompting from Daniel Silverstone)
4260
4261
BUG FIXES:
4262
4263
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
4264
4265
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
4266
4267
* Error when run with -OO
4268
4269
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
4270
(Martin Pool)
4271
4272
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
4273
4274
* Change status to 3 for all errors
4275
4276
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
4277
ignored by diff and status
4278
4279
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
4280
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
4281
4282
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
4283
4284
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
4285
4286
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
4287
status' output. (Daniel Silverstone, #4503)
4288
4289
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
4290
email address. (Marien Zwart)
4291
4292
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages.
4293
(Harald Meland)
4294
4295
* List of plugin directories in ``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` environment variable is
4296
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
4297
4298
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
4299
4300
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
4301
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
4302
4303
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters.
4304
(Martin Pool)
4305
4306
* Remove Makefile.in from default ignore list.
4307
(Tollef Fog Heen, Martin Pool, #6413)
4308
4309
* Fix failure in 'bzr added'. (Nathan McCallum, Martin Pool)
4310
4311
TESTING:
4312
4313
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
4314
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
4315
4316
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
4317
4318
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
4319
4320
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
4321
4322
* Updated ``build_tree`` to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
4323
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
4324
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
4325
4326
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
4327
4328
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
4329
(John Arbash Meinel)
4330
4331
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
4332
4333
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
4334
If adding a new test script please add that to
4335
``bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__``. (Robert Collins)
4336
4337
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
4338
imported. (Martin Pool)
4339
4340
* Make check now runs the test suite twice - once with the default locale,
4341
and once with all locales forced to C, to expose bugs. This is not
4342
trivially done within python, so for now its only triggered by running
4343
Make check. Integrators and packagers who wish to check for full
4344
platform support should run 'make check' to test the source.
4345
(Robert Collins)
4346
4347
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
4348
(Martin Pool) (NB: TestSkipped should only be raised for correctable
4349
reasons - see the wiki spec ImprovingBzrTestSuite).
4350
4351
* Test sftp with relative, absolute-in-homedir and absolute-not-in-homedir
4352
paths for the transport tests. Introduce blackbox remote sftp tests that
4353
test the same permutations. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
4354
4355
* Transport implementation tests are now independent of the local file
4356
system, which allows tests for esoteric transports, and for features
4357
not available in the local file system. They also repeat for variations
4358
on the URL scheme that can introduce issues in the transport code,
4359
see bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter() for this.
4360
(Robert Collins).
4361
4362
* ``TestCase.build_tree`` uses the transport interface to build trees,
4363
pass in a transport parameter to give it an existing connection.
4364
(Robert Collins).
4365
4366
INTERNALS:
4367
4368
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
4369
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
4370
4371
* ``commands.display_command`` now returns the result of the decorated
4372
function. (Robert Collins)
4373
4374
* LocationConfig now has a ``set_user_option(key, value)`` call to save
4375
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
4376
if needed). (Robert Collins)
4377
4378
* Branch has two new methods, ``get_push_location`` and
4379
``set_push_location`` to respectively, get and set the push location.
4380
(Robert Collins)
4381
4382
* ``commands.register_command`` now takes an optional flag to signal that
4383
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
4384
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
4385
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
4386
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
4387
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
4388
version. (Robert Collins)
4389
4390
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
4391
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
4392
4393
* ``Branch.read_working_inventory`` has moved to
4394
``WorkingTree.read_working_inventory``. This necessitated changes to
4395
``Branch.get_root_id``, and a move of ``Branch.set_inventory`` to
4396
WorkingTree as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always
4397
be obtained ``Branch.working_tree()`` will raise
4398
``errors.NoWorkingTree`` if one cannot be obtained. (Robert Collins)
4399
4400
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
4401
(Robert Collins)
4402
4403
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree::
4404
4405
add()
4406
commit()
4407
move()
4408
rename_one()
4409
unknowns()
4410
4411
(Robert Collins)
4412
4413
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch`` is now ``smart_add_tree``. (Robert Collins)
4414
4415
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
4416
4417
* Rename selftests to ``bzrlib.tests.test_foo``. (John A Meinel, Martin
4418
Pool)
4419
4420
* ``bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins`` has been changed from an attribute to a
4421
query method. (Robert Collins)
4422
4423
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
4424
(Denys Duchier)
4425
4426
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
4427
(Michael Ellerman)
4428
4429
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in ``cmd_pull()``.
4430
(Michael Ellerman)
4431
4432
* Branch.controlfile* logic has moved to lockablefiles.LockableFiles, which
4433
is exposed as ``Branch().control_files``. Also this has been altered with the
4434
controlfile pre/suffix replaced by simple method names like 'get' and
4435
'put'. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins).
4436
4437
* Deprecated functions and methods can now be marked as such using the
4438
``bzrlib.symbol_versioning`` module. Marked method have their docstring
4439
updated and will issue a DeprecationWarning using the warnings module
4440
when they are used. (Robert Collins)
4441
4442
* ``bzrlib.osutils.safe_unicode`` now exists to provide parameter coercion
4443
for functions that need unicode strings. (Robert Collins)
4444
4445
bzr 0.6 2005-10-28
4446
------------------
4447
4448
IMPROVEMENTS:
4449
4450
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
4451
(John A Meinel)
4452
4453
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
4454
conflicts.
4455
(Aaron Bentley)
4456
4457
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
4458
a separator, not ':'.
4459
(Aaron Bentley)
4460
4461
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
4462
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
4463
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
4464
4465
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
4466
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
4467
(Robert Collins)
4468
4469
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
4470
has been added that suppresses all output.
4471
4472
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
4473
Adams.
4474
4475
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
4476
Goffredo Baroncelli.
4477
4478
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
4479
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
4480
4481
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
4482
a revision. (Robert Collins)
4483
4484
* If you set ``check_signatures=require`` for a path in
4485
``~/.bazaar/branches.conf`` then bzr will invoke your
4486
``gpg_signing_command`` (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
4487
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
4488
4489
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
4490
4491
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
4492
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
4493
4494
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
4495
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
4496
4497
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
4498
output directory, if one was supplied.
4499
4500
* If the option ``post_commit`` is set to one (or more) python function
4501
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
4502
after the commit has completed, with the branch and ``revision_id`` as
4503
parameters. (Robert Collins)
4504
4505
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
4506
4507
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
4508
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
4509
4510
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
4511
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
4512
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
4513
4514
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
4515
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
4516
4517
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
4518
(Aaron Bentley)
4519
4520
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
4521
4522
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
4523
4524
TESTING:
4525
4526
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
4527
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
4528
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
4529
4530
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
4531
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
4532
related questions. (Robert Collins)
4533
4534
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
4535
is given. (Martin Pool)
4536
4537
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
4538
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
4539
file. (Robert Collins)
4540
4541
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
4542
(Martin Pool)
4543
4544
INTERNALS:
4545
4546
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
4547
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
4548
representation. (Martin Pool).
4549
4550
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
4551
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
4552
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
4553
4554
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
4555
(Robert Collins)
4556
4557
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
4558
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
4559
Magnus Therning.
4560
4561
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
4562
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
4563
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
4564
available, construct a ``*Config``, and use its ``signature_checking``,
4565
``username`` and ``user_email`` methods. (Robert Collins)
4566
4567
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
4568
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
4569
import other plugins during the ``__init__`` of your plugin though, as
4570
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
4571
python path. (Robert Collins)
4572
4573
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
4574
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
4575
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
4576
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
4577
4578
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
4579
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
4580
4581
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
4582
``lock_read``, ``lock_write`` and ``unlock`` methods for convenience.
4583
(Robert Collins)
4584
4585
* Two decorators, ``needs_read_lock`` and ``needs_write_lock`` have been
4586
added to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
4587
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
4588
4589
* ``Branch.open_containing`` now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
4590
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
4591
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
4592
4593
* Transports can register using ``register_lazy_transport``, and they
4594
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
4595
4596
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as ``WorkingTree.pull()``.
4597
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
4598
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
4599
(Robert Collins)
4600
4601
* config.Config has a ``get_user_option`` call that accepts an option name.
4602
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
4603
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
4604
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
4605
(Robert Collins)
4606
4607
* ``merge.merge_inner`` now has tempdir as an optional parameter.
4608
(Robert Collins)
4609
4610
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
4611
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
4612
(Robert Collins)
4613
4614
* ``WorkingTree.__del__`` has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
4615
doing what it was intended to. See ``WorkingTree.__init__`` for a comment
4616
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
4617
4618
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
4619
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
4620
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
4621
4622
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
4623
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
4624
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
4625
4626
* Transports can register using ``register_lazy_transport``, and they
4627
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
4628
4629
* ``merge_flex`` no longer calls ``conflict_handler.finalize()``, instead that
4630
is called by ``merge_inner``. This is so that the conflict count can be
4631
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
4632
of ``merge_inner``. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
4633
caller. (Robert Collins)
4634
4635
* ``revision.revision_graph`` can handle having only partial history for
4636
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
4637
(Robert Collins).
4638
4639
* New ``builtins.branch_files`` uses the standard ``file_list`` rules to
4640
produce a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch
4641
(Aaron Bentley)
4642
4643
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
4644
4645
* New ``bzrlib.version_info`` tuple (similar to ``sys.version_info``),
4646
which can be used by programs importing bzrlib.
4647
4648
BUG FIXES:
4649
4650
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
4651
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
4652
4653
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
4654
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
4655
4656
4657
bzr 0.1.1 2005-10-12
4658
--------------------
4659
4660
BUG FIXES:
4661
4662
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
4663
allow directories to be listed.
4664
4665
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
4666
upgrading branch format.
4667
4668
PERFORMANCE:
4669
4670
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
4671
4672
4673
bzr 0.1 2005-10-11
4674
------------------
4675
4676
NOTES:
4677
4678
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
4679
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
4680
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
4681
high-latency connections.
4682
4683
BUG FIXES:
4684
4685
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
4686
Rob Weir.
4687
4688
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
4689
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
4690
4691
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
4692
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
4693
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
4694
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
4695
4696
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
4697
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
4698
4699
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
4700
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
4701
4702
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
4703
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
4704
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
4705
4706
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
4707
for files with only a change to their executable status.
4708
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
4709
Robert Collins
4710
4711
* HTTP tests now force off the use of ``http_proxy`` for the duration.
4712
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
4713
4714
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
4715
different partial views of history.
4716
4717
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
4718
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
4719
4720
IMPROVEMENTS:
4721
4722
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
4723
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
4724
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
4725
4726
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
4727
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
4728
'bzr upgrade'.
4729
4730
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
4731
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
4732
4733
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
4734
Niemeyer.
4735
4736
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
4737
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
4738
4739
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
4740
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
4741
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
4742
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
4743
4744
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
4745
4746
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
4747
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
4748
Gustavo Niemeyer.
4749
4750
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
4751
Contributed by Robert Collins.
4752
4753
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
4754
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
4755
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
4756
4757
4758
INTERNALS:
4759
4760
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
4761
for your viewing pleasure.
4762
4763
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
4764
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
4765
4766
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
4767
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
4768
handling of such circumstances.
4769
4770
* Remove RevisionReference class; ``Revision.parent_ids`` is now simply a
4771
list of their ids and ``parent_sha1s`` is a list of their corresponding
4772
sha1s (for old branches only at the moment.)
4773
4774
* New method-object style interface for Commit() and Fetch().
4775
4776
* Renamed ``Branch.last_patch()`` to ``Branch.last_revision()``, since
4777
we call them revisions not patches.
4778
4779
* Move ``copy_branch`` to ``bzrlib.clone.copy_branch``. The destination
4780
directory is created if it doesn't exist.
4781
4782
* Inventories now identify the files which were present by
4783
giving the revision *of that file*.
4784
4785
* Inventory and Revision XML contains a version identifier.
4786
This must be consistent with the overall branch version
4787
but allows for more flexibility in future upgrades.
4788
4789
TESTING:
4790
4791
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
4792
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
4793
4794
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
4795
of tests to run, e.g. ``bzr selftest test_weave``
4796
4797
4798
bzr 0.0.9 2005-09-23
4799
--------------------
4800
4801
BUG FIXES:
4802
4803
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
4804
4805
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
4806
(Robert Collins).
4807
4808
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
4809
4810
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
4811
4812
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
4813
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
4814
4815
IMPROVEMENTS:
4816
4817
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
4818
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
4819
4820
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
4821
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
4822
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
4823
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
4824
Robey Pointer
4825
4826
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
4827
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
4828
4829
INTERNALS:
4830
4831
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
4832
4833
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
4834
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
4835
4836
4837
bzr 0.0.8 2005-09-20
4838
--------------------
4839
4840
IMPROVEMENTS:
4841
4842
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
4843
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
4844
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
4845
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
4846
Michael Ellerman.
4847
4848
* Ignore ``.DS_Store`` (contains Mac metadata) by default.
4849
(Nir Soffer)
4850
4851
* If you set ``BZR_EDITOR`` in the environment, it is checked in
4852
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
4853
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
4854
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
4855
for the operating system is still tried.
4856
4857
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
4858
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
4859
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
4860
4861
4862
INTERNALS:
4863
4864
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
4865
4866
BUG FIXES:
4867
4868
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
4869
4870
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
4871
branch.
4872
4873
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
4874
read.
4875
4876
4877
PORTABILITY:
4878
4879
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
4880
4881
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
4882
4883
4884
bzr-0.0.7 2005-09-02
4885
--------------------
4886
4887
NEW FEATURES:
4888
4889
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
4890
help with intelligent shell completion.
4891
4892
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
4893
4894
4895
ENHANCEMENTS:
4896
4897
* Much better merge support.
4898
4899
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
4900
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
4901
like emacs smerge.
4902
4903
4904
BUG FIXES:
4905
4906
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
4907
mention revisions that are not present.
4908
4909
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
4910
4911
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
4912
4913
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
4914
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
4915
4916
4917
CHANGES:
4918
4919
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
4920
4921
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
4922
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
4923
--help themselves.
4924
4925
4926
LIBRARY:
4927
4928
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
4929
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
4930
libraries.
4931
4932
4933
4934
bzr-0.0.6 2005-08-18
4935
--------------------
4936
4937
NEW FEATURES:
4938
4939
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
4940
``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` or ``~/.bzr.conf/plugins`` by default.
4941
4942
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
4943
4944
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
4945
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
4946
4947
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
4948
FOO.
4949
4950
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
4951
4952
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
4953
the Unix command.
4954
4955
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
4956
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
4957
4958
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
4959
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
4960
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
4961
4962
4963
ENHANCEMENTS:
4964
4965
* Faster working tree operations.
4966
4967
4968
CHANGES:
4969
4970
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
4971
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
4972
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
4973
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
4974
4975
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
4976
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
4977
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
4978
``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` and ``DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH`` are then added to the
4979
standard plugins directory.
4980
4981
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
4982
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
4983
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
4984
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
4985
4986
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
4987
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
4988
4989
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
4990
disk.
4991
4992
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
4993
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
4994
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
4995
4996
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
4997
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
4998
4999
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
5000
line options must come before the command name because they
5001
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
5002
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
5003
it.
5004
5005
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
5006
5007
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
5008
is available with ``--short``.
5009
5010
5011
BUG FIXES:
5012
5013
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
5014
5015
5016
bzr-0.0.5 2005-06-15
5017
---------------------
5018
5019
CHANGES:
5020
5021
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
5022
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
5023
5024
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
5025
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
5026
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
5027
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
5028
5029
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
5030
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
5031
with the ``--forward`` option.
5032
5033
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
5034
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
5035
field.
5036
5037
5038
ENHANCEMENTS:
5039
5040
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
5041
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
5042
5043
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
5044
5045
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
5046
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
5047
5048
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
5049
5050
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
5051
either read or write mode.
5052
5053
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
5054
5055
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
5056
affected that file.
5057
5058
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
5059
5060
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
5061
suggested by LarstiQ.
5062
5063
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
5064
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
5065
5066
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
5067
a filename.
5068
5069
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
5070
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
5071
5072
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
5073
haven't changed since the previous time.
5074
5075
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
5076
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
5077
5078
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
5079
5080
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
5081
5082
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
5083
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
5084
5085
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
5086
options through to an external GNU diff.
5087
5088
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
5089
their contents.
5090
5091
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
5092
from a branch.
5093
5094
5095
BUG FIXES:
5096
5097
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
5098
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
5099
5100
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
5101
metacharacters.
5102
5103
5104
TESTING:
5105
5106
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
5107
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
5108
the tests.
5109
5110
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
5111
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
5112
5113
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
5114
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
5115

5153
---------------------
5154
5155
ENHANCEMENTS:
5156
5157
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
5158
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
5159
5160
* More default ignore patterns.
5161
5162
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
5163
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
5164
5165
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
5166
5167
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
5168
by Jason Diamon.
5169

5172
5173
CHANGES:
5174
5175
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
5176
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
5177
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
5178
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
5179
there are DNS problems.
5180
5181
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
5182
5183
5184

5191
trailing newlines properly.
5192
5193
5194
INTERNAL:
5195
5196
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
5197
Matt Brubeck.
5198
5199
* More tests in test.sh.
5200
5201

5202
directory and delete it when done.
5203
5204

5205
5206
5207

5239
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
5240
will do for now.)
5241
5242
PORTABILITY:
5243
5244
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an

5285
* Performance improvements.
5286
5287
