bzr-0.0.5 NOT RELEASED YET
5
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
6
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
8
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
9
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
10
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
11
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
13
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
14
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
15
with the ``--forward`` option.
17
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
18
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
24
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
25
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
27
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
29
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
30
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
32
* Add ``.*.swp .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
34
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
35
either read or write mode.
37
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
39
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
42
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
44
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
47
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
48
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
50
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
53
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
54
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
56
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
57
haven't changed since the previous time.
59
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
60
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
62
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
64
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
66
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
67
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
69
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
70
options through to an external GNU diff.
72
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
78
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
79
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
81
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
87
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
88
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
91
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
92
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
94
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
95
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
97
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
98
under a different version.
100
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
105
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
107
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
110
* Better help messages for many commands.
112
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
113
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
115
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
116
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
118
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
120
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
122
* New AtomicFile class.
124
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
129
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
130
2.4 is now only recommended.
137
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
138
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
140
* More default ignore patterns.
142
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
143
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
145
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
147
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
150
* New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.
155
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
156
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
157
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
158
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
159
there are DNS problems.
161
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
166
* Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.
168
* Some Unicode/locale fixes.
170
* Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling
171
trailing newlines properly.
176
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
179
* More tests in test.sh.
181
* Write profile data to a temporary file not into working
182
directory and delete it when done.
184
* Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.
189
* Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows. Patch from Andrew
192
* Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch
200
* New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories
203
* Can now say "bzr commit --help".
205
* New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name
208
* New "move" command to move one or more files into a different
211
* New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.
213
* New cat command contributed by janmar.
217
* .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in
218
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
223
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an
224
exception when comparing empty files. Reported by Erik Toubro
229
* Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.
233
* Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.
240
* Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.
243
bzr-0.0.2 "black cube" 2005-03-31
247
* Default ignore list extended (see bzrlib/__init__.py).
249
* Patterns in .bzrignore are now added to the default ignore list,
250
rather than replacing it.
252
* Ignore list isn't reread for every file.
256
* Reinstate the 'bzr check' command to check invariants of the
259
* New 'ignored' command lists which files are ignored and why;
260
'deleted' lists files deleted in the current working tree.
262
* Performance improvements.
264
* New global --profile option.
266
* Ignore patterns like './config.h' now correctly match files in
267
the root directory only.
274
* More information from info command.
276
* Can now say "bzr help COMMAND" for more detailed help.
278
* Less file flushing and faster performance when writing logs and
279
committing to stores.
281
* More useful verbose output from some commands.
285
* Fix inverted display of 'R' and 'M' during 'commit -v'.
289
* Include a subset of ElementTree-1.2.20040618 to make
292
* Fix time.localtime call to work with Python 2.3 (the minimum
296
bzr-0.0.0.69 2005-03-22
