External Compatibility Breaks
19
*****************************
21
* The bzr command has been renamed to brz, to prevent
22
clashes with upstream Bazaar.
23
(Martin Packman, Jelmer Vernooij)
25
* The --prefix/-p argument for ``bzr diff`` now defaults to -p1 rather
26
than -p0. (Jelmer Vernooij, #1695126)
28
* The ``brz register-branch`` command from the Launchpad plugin has been
29
removed, because it has not worked for at least five years: it relies on
30
password authentication rather than SSO, the relevant systems no longer
31
have firewall-level access to the outside world, and in general the
32
Mirrored branch type is deprecated. Either just push the branch to
33
Launchpad or use code imports instead
34
(https://help.launchpad.net/VcsImports).
35
(Colin Watson, #254567, #483689)
37
* brz no longer supports building the C extensions using Pyrex.
38
Only Cython is supported. (Jelmer Vernooij)
40
* Support for HTTP support using "pycurl" and the associated
41
URL schemes "http+pycurl://" and "https+pycurl://" has been dropped.
42
(Jelmer Vernooij, #82086, #377389, #122258, #516222, #545776, #1696602)
44
* Support for medusa for FTP tests has been dropped, only
45
pyftpdlib is now supported. (Jelmer Vernooij)
47
* The deprecated ``brz get`` and ``brz clone`` commands have been
48
removed. (Jelmer Vernooij)
50
* The setting to ignore missing C extensions has been changed from
51
``ignore_missing_extensions=True`` to
52
``suppress_warnings=missing_extensions``. (Jelmer Vernooij)
54
* Remove format names as options to ``brz init`` and ``brz
55
init-repository``.. Now you must use ``brz init --format=...``.
56
This simplifies ``brz init --help``.
57
(Neil Martinsen-Burrell, #330494)
59
* ``python-gpg`` is now used for checking GPG signatures rather than
60
``python-gpgme``. (Jelmer Vernooij, #1702308)
62
* ``python-gpg`` is now used for signing commits, rather than shelling
63
out to the gnupg command. The ``gpg_signing_command`` option has been
64
removed. (Jelmer Vernooij, #847388)
66
* The ``bzr.transform.orphan_policy`` configuration option
67
has been renamed to ``transform.orphan_policy``.

100
can be enabled by setting ``commit.template_from_files = NEWS``.
103
* The 'darcs' plugin is now bundled.
106
* The functionality from ``bzr-guess`` is now merged into Breezy.
107

(Vincent Ladeuil, #1089352)
136
* The ``bisect`` command now works in non-``.bzr`` directories.
139
* When creating ``authentication.conf``, umask is now set so only the
140
current user can read the file. Breezy warns if the file is
141
accessible for other users when it starts.
142
(Joke de Buhr, Jelmer Vernooij, #475501)
144

(Jelmer Vernooij, #796582, #403811, #694946, #268135, #299879)
147
* Print a proper error when encountering ghost revisions in
148

Command implementations instead. (#268573, B. Clausius)
165
* It is now possible to version files with backslashes in their name
166
on platforms that support it. (Jelmer Vernooij, #81844)

200
(Jelmer Vernooij, #1695774)

203
have been moved to ``breezy.bzr``. (Jelmer Vernooij)
205
* ``MetaDirBranchFormatFactory`` has been removed.
206
Use lazy registration on ``breezy.branch.format_registry``
207
instead. (Jelmer Vernooij)
209
* ``breezy.bzrdir.format_registry`` has been removed; use
210
``breezy.controldir.format_registry`` instead.

216

219
argument. (Jelmer Vernooij)
221
* A new ``Repository.iter_revisions`` method has been added.
224
* A new ``WorkingTreeFormat.supports_setting_file_ids`` property
225
has been added that can be set to False to indicate a working tree
226
doesn't support e.g. passing a file_id into ``WorkingTree.mkdir``.
227
(Jelmer Vernooij, #1707533)
229
* A new ``RepositoryFormat.supports_setting_revision_ids`` property
230
has been added that can be set to False to indicate a repository
231
doesn't support passing revision ids to ``CommitBuilder.commit``.
234
* A new ``RepositoryFormat.supports_overriding_transport`` property
235
has been added that can be set to False to indicate a repository
236

251
``breezy.decorators.needs_read_lock`` and

``.lock_read`` and ``.lock_tree_write`` respectively. (Jelmer Vernooij)
256
* ``Tree`` methods now take a ``path`` as primary key argument, rather
257
than a ``file_id``. ``file_id`` is still present as optional argument
258
for most functions, and can be specified to speed up lookups.
264
.. Major internal changes, unlikely to be visible to users or plugin
265
developers, but interesting for brz developers.

* Allow overriding of default HTTP headers by caller.
268
(Jelmer Vernooij, #1753734)
273

277
* Newer versions of ``pyftpdlib`` are now supported for running FTP tests.

285
* Launchpad plugin tests no longer try to connect to production
286
Launchpad. (Jelmer Vernooij, #723183)
288
* Set the ``GPGHOME`` environment variable during testing, to prevent
289
e.g. leaking keys into the users' GNUPG directory.
