bzr-0.0.5 NOT RELEASED YET
1
bzr development version
5
* The FTP transport now tries to reconnect after a temporary
6
failure. ftp put is made atomic. (Matthieu Moy)
8
* The FTP transport now maintains a pool of connections, and
9
reuses them to avoid multiple connections to the same host (like
10
sftp did). (Daniel Silverstone)
12
* The bzr_man.py file has been removed. To create the man page now,
13
use ./generate_docs.py man. The new program can also create other files.
14
Run "python generate_docs.py --help" for usage information. (Hans
15
Ulrich Niedermann & James Blackwell).
17
* Man Page now gives full help (James Blackwell). Help also updated to
18
reflect user config now being stored in .bazaar (Hans Ulrich
23
* The internal storage of history, and logical branch identity have now
24
been split into Branch, and Repository. The common locking and file
25
management routines are now in bzrlib.lockablefiles.
26
(Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
30
* SFTP tests now shortcut the SSH negotiation, reducing test overhead
31
for testing SFTP protocol support. (Robey Pointer)
35
* pull now accepts a --revision argument (Erik Bågfors)
42
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
43
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
45
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
46
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
47
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
50
* Under Windows configuration directory is now %APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0
51
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
53
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by BZR_HOME
54
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in BZR_HOME, then
55
in HOME. Under Windows the order is: BZR_HOME, APPDATA (usually
56
points to C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data), HOME.
59
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
60
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
61
used. (Robert Collins)
63
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
64
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
67
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
68
convention. Paths now take the form:
69
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
71
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
73
* Permissions on files underneath .bzr/ are inherited from the .bzr
74
directory. So for a shared repository, simply doing 'chmod -R g+w .bzr/'
75
will mean that future file will be created with group write permissions.
77
* configure.in and config.guess are no longer in the builtin default
80
* '.sw[nop]' pattern ignored, to ignore vim swap files for nameless
81
files. (John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool)
85
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
86
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
88
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
90
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
92
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
93
tree. (Robert Collins)
95
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
96
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
97
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
100
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
103
* Tweaks to short log printing
105
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
108
* If $BZR_PDB is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
109
occurs. (Martin Pool)
111
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
112
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
114
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
115
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
117
* Commit editor temporary files now start with 'bzr_log.', to allow
118
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
119
settings. (Magnus Therning)
121
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
122
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
124
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
125
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
128
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
129
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
131
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
132
(#3632, Matthieu Moy)
134
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
135
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
137
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
140
* 'bzr add' now takes a --dry-run parameter which shows you what would be
141
added, but doesn't actually add anything. (Michael Ellerman)
143
* 'bzr add' now lists how many files were ignored per glob. add --verbose
144
lists the specific files. (Aaron Bentley)
146
* 'bzr missing' now supports displaying changes in diverged trees and can
147
be limited to show what either end of the comparison is missing.
148
(Aaron Bently, with a little prompting from Daniel Silverstone)
152
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
154
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
156
* Error when run with -OO
158
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
161
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
163
* Change status to 3 for all errors
165
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
166
ignored by diff and status
168
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
169
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
171
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
173
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
175
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
176
status' output. (#4503, Daniel Silverstone)
178
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
179
email address. (Marien Zwart)
181
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages. (Harald
184
* List of plugin directories in BZR_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable is
185
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
187
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
189
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
190
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
192
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters. (Martin
195
* Remove Makefile.in from default ignore list. (#6413, Tollef Fog
198
* Fix failure in 'bzr added'. (Nathan McCallum, Martin Pool)
202
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
203
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
205
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
207
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
209
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
211
* Updated build_tree to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
212
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
213
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
215
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
217
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
220
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
222
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
223
If adding a new test script please add that to
224
bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__. (Robert Collins)
226
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
227
imported. (Martin Pool)
229
* Make check now runs the test suite twice - once with the default locale,
230
and once with all locales forced to C, to expose bugs. This is not
231
trivially done within python, so for now its only triggered by running
232
Make check. Integrators and packagers who wish to check for full
233
platform support should run 'make check' to test the source.
236
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
237
(Martin Pool) (NB: TestSkipped should only be raised for correctable
238
reasons - see the wiki spec ImprovingBzrTestSuite).
240
* Test sftp with relative, absolute-in-homedir and absolute-not-in-homedir
241
paths for the transport tests. Introduce blackbox remote sftp tests that
242
test the same permutations. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
244
* Transport implementation tests are now independent of the local file
245
system, which allows tests for esoteric transports, and for features
246
not available in the local file system. They also repeat for variations
247
on the URL scheme that can introduce issues in the transport code,
248
see bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter() for this.
251
* TestCase.build_tree uses the transport interface to build trees, pass
252
in a transport parameter to give it an existing connection.
257
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
258
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
260
* commands.display_command now returns the result of the decorated
261
function. (Robert Collins)
263
* LocationConfig now has a set_user_option(key, value) call to save
264
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
265
if needed). (Robert Collins)
267
* Branch has two new methods, get_push_location and set_push_location
268
to respectively, get and set the push location. (Robert Collins)
270
* commands.register_command now takes an optional flag to signal that
271
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
272
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
273
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
274
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
275
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
276
version. (Robert Collins)
278
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
279
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
281
* Branch.read_working_inventory has moved to
282
WorkingTree.read_working_inventory. This necessitated changes to
283
Branch.get_root_id, and a move of Branch.set_inventory to WorkingTree
284
as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always be obtained
285
Branch.working_tree() will raise 'errors.NoWorkingTree' if one cannot
286
be obtained. (Robert Collins)
288
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
291
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree:
299
* bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch is now smart_add_tree. (Robert Collins)
301
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
303
* Rename selftests to `bzrlib.tests.test_foo`. (John A Meinel, Martin
306
* bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins has been changed from an attribute to a
307
query method. (Robert Collins)
309
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
312
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
315
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in cmd_pull().
319
* Branch.controlfile* logic has moved to lockablefiles.LockableFiles, which
320
is exposed as Branch().control_files. Also this has been altered with the
321
controlfile pre/suffix replaced by simple method names like 'get' and
322
'put'. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins).
324
* Deprecated functions and methods can now be marked as such using the
325
bzrlib.symbol_versioning module. Marked method have their docstring
326
updated and will issue a DeprecationWarning using the warnings module
327
when they are used. (Robert Collins)
329
* bzrlib.osutils.safe_unicode now exists to provide parameter coercion
330
for functions that need unicode strings. (Robert Collins)
336
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
339
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
343
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
344
a separator, not ':'.
347
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
348
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
349
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
351
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
352
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
355
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
356
has been added that suppresses all output.
358
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
361
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
364
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
365
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
367
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
368
a revision. (Robert Collins)
370
* If you set check_signatures=require for a path in
371
~/.bazaar/branches.conf then bzr will invoke your
372
gpg_signing_command (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
373
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
375
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
377
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
378
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
380
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
381
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
383
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
384
output directory, if one was supplied.
386
* If the option 'post_commit' is set to one (or more) python function
387
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
388
after the commit has completed, with the branch and revision_id as
389
parameters. (Robert Collins)
391
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
393
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
394
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
396
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
397
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
398
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
400
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
401
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
403
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
406
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
408
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
412
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
413
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
414
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
416
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
417
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
418
related questions. (Robert Collins)
420
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
421
is given. (Martin Pool)
423
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
424
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
425
file. (Robert Collins)
427
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
432
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
433
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
434
representation. (Martin Pool).
436
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
437
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
438
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
440
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
443
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
444
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
447
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
448
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
449
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
450
available, construct a *Config, and use its signature_checking,
451
username and user_email methods. (Robert Collins)
453
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
454
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
455
import other plugins during the __init__ of your plugin though, as
456
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
457
python path. (Robert Collins)
459
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
460
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
461
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
462
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
464
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
465
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
467
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
468
lock_read, lock_write and unlock methods for convenience. (Robert
471
* Two decorators, needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock have been added
472
to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
473
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
475
* Branch.open_containing now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
476
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
477
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
479
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
480
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
482
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as WorkingTree.pull().
483
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
484
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
487
* config.Config has a 'get_user_option' call that accepts an option name.
488
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
489
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
490
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
493
* merge.merge_inner now has tempdir as an optional parameter. (Robert
496
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
497
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
500
* WorkingTree.__del__ has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
501
doing what it was intended to. See WorkingTree.__init__ for a comment
502
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
504
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
505
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
506
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
508
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
509
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
510
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
512
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
513
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
515
* 'merge_flex' no longer calls conflict_handler.finalize(), instead that
516
is called by merge_inner. This is so that the conflict count can be
517
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
518
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
519
caller. (Robert Collins)
521
* 'revision.revision_graph can handle having only partial history for
522
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
525
* New builtins.branch_files uses the standard file_list rules to produce
526
a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch (Aaron Bentley)
528
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
530
* New bzrlib.version_info tuple (similar to sys.version_info), which can
531
be used by programs importing bzrlib.
535
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
536
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
538
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
539
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
546
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
547
allow directories to be listed.
549
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
550
upgrading branch format.
554
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
561
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
562
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
563
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
564
high-latency connections.
568
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
571
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
572
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
574
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
575
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
576
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
577
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
579
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
580
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
582
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
583
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
585
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
586
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
587
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
589
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
590
for files with only a change to their executable status.
591
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
594
* HTTP tests now force off the use of http_proxy for the duration.
595
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
597
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
598
different partial views of history.
600
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
601
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
606
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
607
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
608
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
610
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
611
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
614
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
615
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
617
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
620
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
621
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
623
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
624
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
625
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
626
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
628
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
630
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
631
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
634
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
635
Contributed by Robert Collins.
637
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
638
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
639
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
644
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
645
for your viewing pleasure.
647
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
648
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
650
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
651
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
652
handling of such circumstances.
657
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
658
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
660
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
661
of tests to run, e.g. 'bzr selftest test_weave'
668
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
670
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
673
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
675
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
677
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
678
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
682
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
683
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
685
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
686
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
687
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
688
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
691
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
692
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
696
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
698
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
699
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
706
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
707
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
708
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
709
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
712
* Ignore .DS_Store (contains Mac metadata) by default. Patch from
715
* If you set BZR_EDITOR in the environment, it is checked in
716
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
717
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
718
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
719
for the operating system is still tried.
721
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
722
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
723
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
728
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
732
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
734
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
737
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
743
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
745
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
752
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
753
help with intelligent shell completion.
755
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
760
* Much better merge support.
762
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
763
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
769
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
770
mention revisions that are not present.
772
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
774
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
776
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
777
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
782
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
784
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
785
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
791
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
792
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
801
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
802
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
804
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
806
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
807
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
809
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
812
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
814
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
817
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
818
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
820
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
821
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
822
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
827
* Faster working tree operations.
832
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
833
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
834
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
835
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
837
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
838
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
839
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
840
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
841
standard plugins directory.
843
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
844
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
845
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
846
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
848
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
849
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
851
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
854
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
855
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
856
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
858
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
859
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
861
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
862
line options must come before the command name because they
863
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
864
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
867
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
869
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
870
is available with ``--short``.
875
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
