bzr-0.0.5 NOT RELEASED YET
5
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
6
help with intelligent shell completion.
8
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
13
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
14
mention revisions that are not present.
19
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
20
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
29
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
30
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
32
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
34
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
35
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
37
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
40
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
42
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
45
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
46
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
48
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
49
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
50
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
55
* Faster working tree operations.
60
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
61
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
62
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
63
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
65
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
66
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
67
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
68
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
69
standard plugins directory.
71
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
72
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
73
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
74
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
76
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
77
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
79
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
82
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
83
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
84
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
86
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
87
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
89
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
90
line options must come before the command name because they
91
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
92
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
95
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
97
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
98
is available with ``--short``.
103
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
110
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
111
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
113
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
114
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
115
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
116
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
118
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
119
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
120
with the ``--forward`` option.
122
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
123
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
5
129
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
6
130
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
132
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
134
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
135
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
137
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
139
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
140
either read or write mode.
142
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
144
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
147
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
149
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
150
suggested by LarstiQ.
152
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
153
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
155
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
158
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
159
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
161
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
162
haven't changed since the previous time.
164
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
165
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
167
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
169
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
171
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
172
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
174
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
175
options through to an external GNU diff.
177
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
180
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
186
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
187
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
189
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
195
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
196
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
199
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
200
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
202
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
203
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
205
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
206
under a different version.
208
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
213
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
215
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
218
* Better help messages for many commands.
220
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
221
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
223
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
224
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
226
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
228
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
230
* New AtomicFile class.
232
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
237
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
238
2.4 is now only recommended.
