Compatibility Breaks
14
14
********************
16
* An API break has been made to the lock_write method of ``Branch`` and
17
``Repository`` objects; they now return ``branch.BranchWriteLockResult``
18
and ``repository.RepositoryWriteLockResult`` objects. This makes
19
changing the API in future easier and permits some cleaner calling code.
20
The lock_read method has also changed from having no defined return
21
value to returning ``LogicalLockResult`` objects.
24
* ``bzr`` does not try to guess the username as ``username@hostname``
25
and requires it to be explictly set. This can be set using ``bzr
27
(Parth Malwankar, #549310)
29
* ``bzrlib.commands.Command`` will now raise ValueError during
30
construction if there is no __doc__ set. (Robert Collins)
31
47
(Parth Malwankar, #304320)
49
* New command line option ``--authors`` to ``bzr log`` allows users to
50
select which of the apparent authors and committer should be
51
included in the log. Defaults depend on format. (Martin von Gagern, #513322)
53
* Support ``--directory`` option for a number of additional commands:
54
added, annotate, bind, cat, cat-revision, clean-tree, deleted,
55
export, ignore, ignored, lookup-revision, ls, modified, nick,
56
re-sign, unbind, unknowns.
57
(Martin von Gagern, #527878)
39
65
(Martin <gzlist@googlemail.com>, Parth Malwankar, #376388)
67
* ``bzr clean-tree`` should not delete nested bzrdirs. Required for proper
68
support of bzr-externals and scmproj plugins.
69
(Alexander Belchenko, bug #572098)
71
* ``bzr ignore`` will no longer add duplicate patterns to .bzrignore.
72
(Gordon Tyler, #572092)
41
74
* ``bzr log --exclude-common-ancestry -r X..Y`` displays the revisions that
42
75
are part of Y ancestry but not part of X ancestry (aka the graph
44
77
(Vincent Ladeuil, #320119)
79
* ``bzr rm`` should not refuse to delete directories which contained a file
80
which has been moved elsewhere in the tree after the previous commit.
81
(Marius Kruger, Daniel Watkins, #129880)
46
83
* ``bzr selftest --parallel=fork`` wait for its children avoiding zombies.
47
84
(Vincent Ladeuil, #566670)
49
86
* ``bzr selftest`` should not use ui.note() since it's not unicode safe.
50
87
(Vincent Ladeuil, #563997)
89
* CommitBuilder refuses to create revisions whose trees have no root.
52
92
* Don't mention --no-strict when we just issue the warning about unclean trees.
53
93
(Vincent Ladeuil, #401599)
56
96
versions before 1.6.
57
97
(Andrew Bennetts, #528041)
99
* Heavyweight checkout operation now shows a message to the user indicating
100
history is being copied.
101
(Parth Malwankar, #538868)
59
103
* Reduce peak memory by one copy of compressed text.
60
104
(John Arbash Meinel, #566940)
106
* Selftest was failing with testtools 0.9.3, which caused an
107
AssertionError raised from a cleanUp to be reported as a Failure, not an
108
Error, breaking on of our test hygiene tests.
109
(Robert Collins, Vincent Ladeuil).
111
* ``set_user_option`` with a dict on remote branches no longer fails with
112
an AttributeError. There is a new ``Branch.set_config_option_dict`` RPC
113
to support this efficiently.
114
(Andrew Bennetts, #430382)
62
116
* Show the filenames when a file rename fails so that the error will be
63
117
more comprehensible.
64
118
(Martin Pool, #491763)
120
* Unicode characters in aliases are now handled correctly and do not cause
121
UnicodeEncodeError exception. (Parth Malwankar, #529930)
123
* Unicode commit messages that are the same as a file name no longer cause
124
UnicodeEncodeError. ``ui.text.show_warning`` now handles unicode
126
(Parth Malwankar, #563646)
128
* Using bzr with `lp:` urls behind an http proxy should work.
129
(Robert Collins, #558343)
74
139
(case-sensitive) as false.
75
140
(Brian de Alwis, Vincent Ladeuil)
142
* ``bzr ls`` now supports short options for existing long options.
143
``-k/--kind``, ``-i/--ignored``, ``-u/--unknown`` and ``-0/--null``.
144
(Parth Malwankar, #181124)
77
146
* ``Config.get_user_option_as_bool`` will now warn if a value cannot
78
147
be interpreted as a boolean.
168
* Lock methods on ``Tree``, ``Branch`` and ``Repository`` are now
169
expected to return an object which can be used to unlock them. This reduces
170
duplicate code when using cleanups. The previous 'tokens's returned by
171
``Branch.lock_write`` and ``Repository.lock_write`` are now attributes
172
on the result of the lock_write. ``repository.RepositoryWriteLockResult``
173
and ``branch.BranchWriteLockResult`` document this. (Robert Collins)
175
* ``Repository.refresh_data`` may now be called in a write group on
176
pack-based repositories. Older repositories will still raise an error
177
in this case. Subclasses of ``Repository`` can still override
178
``Repository._refresh_data``, but are now responsible for raising
179
``bzrlib.repository.IsInWriteGroupError`` if they do not support
180
``refresh_data`` during a write group.
181
(Andrew Bennetts, #574236)
186
* ``chk_map._bytes_to_text_key`` is now an optimized function to extract
187
the (file-id, revision-id) key from a CHKInventory entry. This can
188
potentially shave 5-10% time off during a large fetch. Related to bug
189
#562666. (John Arbash Meinel)
191
* ``log._get_info_for_log_files`` now takes an add_cleanup callable.
102
194
* ``_remember_remote_is_before`` no longer raises AssertionError when
103
195
suboptimal network behaviour is noticed; instead it just mutters to the
104
196
log file (and warns the user if they have set the ``hpss`` debug flag).
232
324
* ``bzrlib.diff.get_trees_and_branches_to_diff`` is deprecated. Use
233
325
``get_trees_and_branches_to_diff_locked`` instead.
234
326
(Andrew Bennetts)
328
* ``TreeTransform.commit`` supports the full set of commit parameters, and
329
auto-determines branch nick if not supplied. (Aaron Bentley)
