5
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
5
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
6
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
8
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
10
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
12
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
13
tree. (Robert Collins)
15
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
16
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
17
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
20
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
23
* Tweaks to short log printing
25
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output
29
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
31
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
33
* Error when run with -OO
35
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
38
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
40
* Change status to 3 for all errors
42
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
43
ignored by diff and status
47
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
48
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
50
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
54
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
55
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
57
* commands.display_command now returns the result of the decorated
58
function. (Robert Collins)
60
* LocationConfig now has a set_user_option(key, value) call to save
61
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
62
if needed). (Robert Collins)
64
* Branch has two new methods, get_push_location and set_push_location
65
to respectively, get and set the push location. (Robert Collins)
67
* commands.register_command now takes an optional flag to signal that
68
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
69
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
70
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
71
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
72
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
73
version. (Robert Collins)
75
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
76
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
78
* Branch.read_working_inventory has moved to
79
WorkingTree.read_working_inventory. This necessitated changes to
80
Branch.get_root_id, and a move of Branch.set_inventory to WorkingTree
81
as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always be obtained
82
Branch.working_tree() will raise 'errors.NoWorkingTree' if one cannot
83
be obtained. (Robert Collins)
89
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
93
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
97
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
98
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
99
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
101
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
102
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
105
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
106
has been added that suppresses all output.
108
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
111
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
114
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
115
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
117
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
118
a revision. (Robert Collins)
120
* If you set check_signatures=require for a path in
121
~/.bazaar/branches.conf then bzr will invoke your
122
gpg_signing_command (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
123
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
125
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
127
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
128
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
130
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
131
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
133
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
134
output directory, if one was supplied.
136
* If the option 'post_commit' is set to one (or more) python function
137
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
138
after the commit has completed, with the branch and revision_id as
139
parameters. (Robert Collins)
141
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
143
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
144
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
146
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
147
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
148
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
150
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
151
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
153
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
156
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
158
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
162
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
163
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
164
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
166
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
167
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
168
related questions. (Robert Collins)
170
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
171
is given. (Martin Pool)
173
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
174
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
175
file. (Robert Collins)
177
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
182
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
183
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
184
representation. (Martin Pool).
186
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
187
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
188
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
190
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
193
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
194
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
197
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
198
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
199
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
200
available, construct a *Config, and use its signature_checking,
201
username and user_email methods. (Robert Collins)
203
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
204
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
205
import other plugins during the __init__ of your plugin though, as
206
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
207
python path. (Robert Collins)
209
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
210
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
211
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
212
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
214
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
215
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
217
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
218
lock_read, lock_write and unlock methods for convenience. (Robert
221
* Two decorators, needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock have been added
222
to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
223
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
225
* Branch.open_containing now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
226
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
227
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
229
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
230
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
232
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as WorkingTree.pull().
233
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
234
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
237
* config.Config has a 'get_user_option' call that accepts an option name.
238
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
239
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
240
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
243
* merge.merge_inner now has tempdir as an optional parameter. (Robert
246
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
247
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
250
* WorkingTree.__del__ has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
251
doing what it was intended to. See WorkingTree.__init__ for a comment
252
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
254
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
255
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
256
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
258
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
259
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
260
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
262
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
263
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
265
* 'merge_flex' no longer calls conflict_handler.finalize(), instead that
266
is called by merge_inner. This is so that the conflict count can be
267
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
268
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
269
caller. (Robert Collins)
271
* 'revision.revision_graph can handle having only partial history for
272
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
275
* New builtins.branch_files uses the standard file_list rules to produce
276
a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch (Aaron Bentley)
278
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
280
* New bzrlib.version_info tuple (similar to sys.version_info), which can
281
be used by programs importing bzrlib.
285
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
286
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
288
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
289
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
296
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
297
allow directories to be listed.
299
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
300
upgrading branch format.
304
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
311
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
312
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
313
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
314
high-latency connections.
318
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
321
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
322
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
324
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
325
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
326
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
327
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
329
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
330
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
332
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
333
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
335
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
336
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
337
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
339
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
340
for files with only a change to their executable status.
341
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
344
* HTTP tests now force off the use of http_proxy for the duration.
345
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
347
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
348
different partial views of history.
350
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
351
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
356
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
357
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
358
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
360
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
361
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
364
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
365
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
367
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
370
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
371
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
373
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
374
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
375
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
376
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
378
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
380
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
381
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
384
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
385
Contributed by Robert Collins.
387
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
388
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
389
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
394
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
395
for your viewing pleasure.
397
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
398
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
400
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
401
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
402
handling of such circumstances.
407
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
408
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
410
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
411
of tests to run, e.g. 'bzr selftest test_weave'
418
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
420
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
423
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
425
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
427
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
428
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
432
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
433
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
435
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
436
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
437
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
438
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
441
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
442
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
446
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
7
448
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
8
449
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
13
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
18
* New method-object style interface for Commit() and Fetch().
20
* Renamed Branch.last_patch() to Branch.last_revision(), since
21
we call them revisions not patches.
456
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
457
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
458
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
459
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
462
* Ignore .DS_Store (contains Mac metadata) by default. Patch from
465
* If you set BZR_EDITOR in the environment, it is checked in
466
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
467
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
468
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
469
for the operating system is still tried.
471
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
472
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
473
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
478
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
482
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
484
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
487
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
493
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
495
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
