bzr-0.0.5 NOT RELEASED YET
5
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
6
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
7
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
8
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
14
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
19
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
21
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
27
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
34
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
35
help with intelligent shell completion.
37
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
42
* Much better merge support.
44
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
45
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
51
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
52
mention revisions that are not present.
54
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
56
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
58
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
59
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
64
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
66
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
67
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
73
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
74
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
83
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
84
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
86
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
88
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
89
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
91
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
94
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
96
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
99
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
100
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
102
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
103
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
104
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
109
* Faster working tree operations.
114
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
115
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
116
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
117
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
119
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
120
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
121
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
122
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
123
standard plugins directory.
125
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
126
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
127
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
128
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
130
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
131
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
133
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
136
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
137
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
138
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
140
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
141
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
143
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
144
line options must come before the command name because they
145
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
146
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
149
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
151
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
152
is available with ``--short``.
157
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
164
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
165
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
167
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
168
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
169
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
170
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
172
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
173
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
174
with the ``--forward`` option.
176
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
177
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
5
183
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
6
184
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
8
* New 'bzr ignore PATTERN' command.
186
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
10
188
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
11
189
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
191
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
193
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
194
either read or write mode.
196
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
198
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
201
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
203
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
204
suggested by LarstiQ.
206
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
207
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
209
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
212
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
213
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
215
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
216
haven't changed since the previous time.
218
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
219
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
221
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
223
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
225
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
226
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
228
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
229
options through to an external GNU diff.
231
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
234
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
240
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
241
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
243
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
15
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python.
16
Various structural improvements to the tests.
249
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
250
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
253
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
254
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
256
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
257
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
259
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
260
under a different version.
262
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
20
267
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
22
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on
23
mango-sorbet by Scott James Remnant.
269
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
25
272
* Better help messages for many commands.
274
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
275
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
277
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
278
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
280
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
282
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
284
* New AtomicFile class.
286
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
291
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
292
2.4 is now only recommended.
