bzr development version
6
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
7
convention. Paths now take the form:
8
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
10
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
12
* The FTP transport now tries to reconnect after a temporary
13
failure. ftp put is made atomic. (Matthieu Moy)
15
* The FTP transport now maintains a pool of connections, and
16
reuses them to avoid multiple connections to the same host (like
17
sftp did). (Daniel Silverstone)
19
* The bzr_man.py file has been removed. To create the man page now,
20
use ./generate_docs.py man. The new program can also create other files.
21
Run "python generate_docs.py --help" for usage information. (Hans
22
Ulrich Niedermann & James Blackwell).
24
* Man Page now gives full help (James Blackwell). Help also updated to
25
reflect user config now being stored in .bazaar (Hans Ulrich
28
* It's now possible to set aliases in bazaar.conf (Erik Bågfors)
30
* Pull now accepts a --revision argument (Erik Bågfors)
32
* 'bzr re-sign' now allows multiple revisions to be supplied on the command
33
line. You can now use the following command to sign all of your old commits.
34
find .bzr/revision-store// -name my@email-* \
35
| sed 's/.*\/\/..\///' \
38
* Upgrade can now upgrade over the network. (Robert Collins)
40
* Two new commands 'bzr checkout' and 'bzr update' allow for CVS/SVN-alike
41
behaviour. They use the existing serverless-mode and store no data
42
locally. As such they are not suitable for use except in high bandwidth
43
low latency environments like LAN's or local disk. (Robert Collins)
45
* 'revert' unversions newly-versioned files, instead of deleting them.
47
* 'merge' is more robust. Conflict messages have changed.
49
* 'merge' and 'revert' no longer clobber existing files that end in '~' or
52
* Default log format can be set in configuration and plugins can register
53
their own formatters. (Erik Bågfors)
55
* New 'reconcile' command will check branch consistency and repair indexes
56
that can become out of sync in pre 0.8 formats. (Robert Collins,
59
* New 'bzr init --format' and 'bzr upgrade --format' option to control
60
what storage format is created or produced. (Robert Collins,
63
* Add parent location to 'bzr info', if there is one. (Olaf Conradi)
65
* 'merge' accepts --remember option to store parent location. (Olaf
70
* The internal storage of history, and logical branch identity have now
71
been split into Branch, and Repository. The common locking and file
72
management routines are now in bzrlib.lockablefiles.
73
(Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
75
* Transports can now raise DependencyNotPresent if they need a library
76
which is not installed, and then another implementation will be
79
* Remove obsolete (and no-op) `decode` parameter to `Transport.get`.
82
* Using Tree Transform for merge, revert, tree-building
84
* WorkingTree.create, Branch.create, WorkingTree.create_standalone,
85
Branch.initialize are now deprecated. Please see BzrDir.create_* for
86
replacement API's. (Robert Collins)
88
* New BzrDir class represents the .bzr control directory and manages
89
formatting issues. (Robert Collins)
91
* New repository.InterRepository class encapsulates Repository to
92
Repository actions and allows for clean selection of optimised code
93
paths. (Robert Collins)
95
* bzrlib.fetch.fetch and bzrlib.fetch.greedy_fetch are now deprecated,
96
please use 'branch.fetch' or 'repository.fetch' depending on your
97
needs. (Robert Collins)
99
* deprecated methods now have a 'is_deprecated' flag on them that can
100
be checked, if you need to determine whether a given callable is
101
deprecated at runtime. (Robert Collins)
103
* Progress bars are now nested - see
104
bzrlib.ui.ui_factory.nested_progress_bar. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
108
* SFTP tests now shortcut the SSH negotiation, reducing test overhead
109
for testing SFTP protocol support. (Robey Pointer)
111
* Branch formats are now tested once per implementation (see bzrlib.
112
tests.branch_implementations. This is analagous to the transport
113
interface tests, and has been followed up with working tree,
114
repository and BzrDir tests. (Robert Collins)
116
* New test base class TestCaseWithTransport provides a transport aware
117
test environment, useful for testing any transport-interface using
118
code. The test suite option --transport controls the transport used
119
by this class (when its not being used as part of implementation
120
contract testing). (Robert Collins)
123
bzr 0.7rc1 2006-01-09
127
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
128
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
130
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
131
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
132
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
135
* Under Windows configuration directory is now %APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0
136
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
138
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by BZR_HOME
139
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in BZR_HOME, then
140
in HOME. Under Windows the order is: BZR_HOME, APPDATA (usually
141
points to C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data), HOME.
144
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
145
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
146
used. (Robert Collins)
148
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
149
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
152
* Permissions on files underneath .bzr/ are inherited from the .bzr
153
directory. So for a shared repository, simply doing 'chmod -R g+w .bzr/'
154
will mean that future file will be created with group write permissions.
156
* configure.in and config.guess are no longer in the builtin default
159
* '.sw[nop]' pattern ignored, to ignore vim swap files for nameless
160
files. (John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool)
164
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
165
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
167
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
169
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
171
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
172
tree. (Robert Collins)
174
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
175
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
176
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
179
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
182
* Tweaks to short log printing
184
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
187
* If $BZR_PDB is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
188
occurs. (Martin Pool)
190
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
191
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
193
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
194
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
196
* Commit editor temporary files now start with 'bzr_log.', to allow
197
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
198
settings. (Magnus Therning)
200
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
201
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
203
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
204
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
207
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
208
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
210
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
211
(#3632, Matthieu Moy)
213
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
214
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
216
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
219
* 'bzr add' now takes a --dry-run parameter which shows you what would be
220
added, but doesn't actually add anything. (Michael Ellerman)
222
* 'bzr add' now lists how many files were ignored per glob. add --verbose
223
lists the specific files. (Aaron Bentley)
225
* 'bzr missing' now supports displaying changes in diverged trees and can
226
be limited to show what either end of the comparison is missing.
227
(Aaron Bently, with a little prompting from Daniel Silverstone)
231
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
233
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
235
* Error when run with -OO
237
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
240
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
242
* Change status to 3 for all errors
244
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
245
ignored by diff and status
247
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
248
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
250
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
252
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
254
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
255
status' output. (#4503, Daniel Silverstone)
257
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
258
email address. (Marien Zwart)
260
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages. (Harald
263
* List of plugin directories in BZR_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable is
264
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
266
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
268
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
269
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
271
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters. (Martin
274
* Remove Makefile.in from default ignore list. (#6413, Tollef Fog
277
* Fix failure in 'bzr added'. (Nathan McCallum, Martin Pool)
281
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
282
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
284
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
286
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
288
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
290
* Updated build_tree to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
291
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
292
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
294
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
296
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
299
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
301
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
302
If adding a new test script please add that to
303
bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__. (Robert Collins)
305
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
306
imported. (Martin Pool)
308
* Make check now runs the test suite twice - once with the default locale,
309
and once with all locales forced to C, to expose bugs. This is not
310
trivially done within python, so for now its only triggered by running
311
Make check. Integrators and packagers who wish to check for full
312
platform support should run 'make check' to test the source.
315
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
316
(Martin Pool) (NB: TestSkipped should only be raised for correctable
317
reasons - see the wiki spec ImprovingBzrTestSuite).
319
* Test sftp with relative, absolute-in-homedir and absolute-not-in-homedir
320
paths for the transport tests. Introduce blackbox remote sftp tests that
321
test the same permutations. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
323
* Transport implementation tests are now independent of the local file
324
system, which allows tests for esoteric transports, and for features
325
not available in the local file system. They also repeat for variations
326
on the URL scheme that can introduce issues in the transport code,
327
see bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter() for this.
330
* TestCase.build_tree uses the transport interface to build trees, pass
331
in a transport parameter to give it an existing connection.
336
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
337
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
339
* commands.display_command now returns the result of the decorated
340
function. (Robert Collins)
342
* LocationConfig now has a set_user_option(key, value) call to save
343
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
344
if needed). (Robert Collins)
346
* Branch has two new methods, get_push_location and set_push_location
347
to respectively, get and set the push location. (Robert Collins)
349
* commands.register_command now takes an optional flag to signal that
350
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
351
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
352
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
353
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
354
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
355
version. (Robert Collins)
357
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
358
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
360
* Branch.read_working_inventory has moved to
361
WorkingTree.read_working_inventory. This necessitated changes to
362
Branch.get_root_id, and a move of Branch.set_inventory to WorkingTree
363
as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always be obtained
364
Branch.working_tree() will raise 'errors.NoWorkingTree' if one cannot
365
be obtained. (Robert Collins)
367
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
370
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree:
378
* bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch is now smart_add_tree. (Robert Collins)
380
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
382
* Rename selftests to `bzrlib.tests.test_foo`. (John A Meinel, Martin
385
* bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins has been changed from an attribute to a
386
query method. (Robert Collins)
388
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
391
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
394
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in cmd_pull().
398
* Branch.controlfile* logic has moved to lockablefiles.LockableFiles, which
399
is exposed as Branch().control_files. Also this has been altered with the
400
controlfile pre/suffix replaced by simple method names like 'get' and
401
'put'. (Aaron Bentley, Robert Collins).
403
* Deprecated functions and methods can now be marked as such using the
404
bzrlib.symbol_versioning module. Marked method have their docstring
405
updated and will issue a DeprecationWarning using the warnings module
406
when they are used. (Robert Collins)
408
* bzrlib.osutils.safe_unicode now exists to provide parameter coercion
409
for functions that need unicode strings. (Robert Collins)
415
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
418
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
422
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
423
a separator, not ':'.
426
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
427
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
428
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
430
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
431
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
434
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
435
has been added that suppresses all output.
437
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
440
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
443
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
444
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
446
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
447
a revision. (Robert Collins)
449
* If you set check_signatures=require for a path in
450
~/.bazaar/branches.conf then bzr will invoke your
451
gpg_signing_command (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
452
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
454
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
456
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
457
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
459
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
460
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
462
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
463
output directory, if one was supplied.
465
* If the option 'post_commit' is set to one (or more) python function
466
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
467
after the commit has completed, with the branch and revision_id as
468
parameters. (Robert Collins)
470
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
472
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
473
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
475
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
476
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
477
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
479
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
480
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
482
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
485
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
487
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
491
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
492
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
493
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
495
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
496
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
497
related questions. (Robert Collins)
499
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
500
is given. (Martin Pool)
502
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
503
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
504
file. (Robert Collins)
506
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
511
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
512
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
513
representation. (Martin Pool).
515
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
516
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
517
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
519
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
522
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
523
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
526
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
527
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
528
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
529
available, construct a *Config, and use its signature_checking,
530
username and user_email methods. (Robert Collins)
532
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
533
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
534
import other plugins during the __init__ of your plugin though, as
535
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
536
python path. (Robert Collins)
538
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
539
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
540
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
541
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
543
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
544
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
546
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
547
lock_read, lock_write and unlock methods for convenience. (Robert
550
* Two decorators, needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock have been added
551
to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
552
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
554
* Branch.open_containing now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
555
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
556
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
558
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
559
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
561
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as WorkingTree.pull().
562
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
563
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
566
* config.Config has a 'get_user_option' call that accepts an option name.
567
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
568
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
569
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
572
* merge.merge_inner now has tempdir as an optional parameter. (Robert
575
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
576
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
579
* WorkingTree.__del__ has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
580
doing what it was intended to. See WorkingTree.__init__ for a comment
581
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
583
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
584
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
585
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
587
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
588
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
589
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
591
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
592
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
594
* 'merge_flex' no longer calls conflict_handler.finalize(), instead that
595
is called by merge_inner. This is so that the conflict count can be
596
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
597
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
598
caller. (Robert Collins)
600
* 'revision.revision_graph can handle having only partial history for
601
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
604
* New builtins.branch_files uses the standard file_list rules to produce
605
a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch (Aaron Bentley)
607
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
609
* New bzrlib.version_info tuple (similar to sys.version_info), which can
610
be used by programs importing bzrlib.
614
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
615
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
617
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
618
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
625
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
626
allow directories to be listed.
628
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
629
upgrading branch format.
633
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
640
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
641
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
642
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
643
high-latency connections.
647
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
650
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
651
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
653
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
654
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
655
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
656
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
658
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
659
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
661
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
662
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
664
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
665
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
666
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
668
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
669
for files with only a change to their executable status.
670
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
673
* HTTP tests now force off the use of http_proxy for the duration.
674
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
676
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
677
different partial views of history.
679
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
680
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
685
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
686
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
687
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
689
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
690
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
693
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
694
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
696
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
699
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
700
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
702
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
703
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
704
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
705
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
707
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
709
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
710
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
713
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
714
Contributed by Robert Collins.
716
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
717
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
718
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
723
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
724
for your viewing pleasure.
726
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
727
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
729
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
730
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
731
handling of such circumstances.
736
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
737
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
739
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
740
of tests to run, e.g. 'bzr selftest test_weave'
747
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
749
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
752
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
754
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
756
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
757
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
761
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
762
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
764
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
765
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
766
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
767
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
770
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
771
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
775
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
777
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
778
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
785
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
786
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
787
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
788
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
791
* Ignore .DS_Store (contains Mac metadata) by default. Patch from
794
* If you set BZR_EDITOR in the environment, it is checked in
795
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
796
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
797
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
798
for the operating system is still tried.
800
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
801
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
802
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
807
5
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
811
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
813
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
816
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
822
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
824
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
