5
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
6
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
8
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
16
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
17
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
19
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
20
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
21
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
22
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
24
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
25
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
26
with the ``--forward`` option.
28
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
29
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
35
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
36
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
38
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
40
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
41
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
43
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
45
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
46
either read or write mode.
48
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
50
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
53
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
55
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
58
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
59
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
61
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
64
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
65
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
67
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
68
haven't changed since the previous time.
70
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
71
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
73
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
75
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
77
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
78
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
80
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
81
options through to an external GNU diff.
83
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
86
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
92
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
93
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
95
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
101
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
102
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
105
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
106
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
108
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
109
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
111
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
112
under a different version.
114
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
119
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
121
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
124
* Better help messages for many commands.
126
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
127
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
129
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
130
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
132
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
134
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
136
* New AtomicFile class.
138
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
143
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
144
2.4 is now only recommended.
151
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
152
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
154
* More default ignore patterns.
156
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
157
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
159
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
161
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
164
* New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.
169
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
170
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
171
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
172
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
173
there are DNS problems.
175
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
180
* Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.
182
* Some Unicode/locale fixes.
184
* Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling
185
trailing newlines properly.
190
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
193
* More tests in test.sh.
195
* Write profile data to a temporary file not into working
196
directory and delete it when done.
198
* Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.
203
* Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows. Patch from Andrew
206
* Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch
214
* New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories
217
* Can now say "bzr commit --help".
219
* New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name
222
* New "move" command to move one or more files into a different
225
* New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.
227
* New cat command contributed by janmar.
231
* .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in
232
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
237
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an
238
exception when comparing empty files. Reported by Erik Toubro
243
* Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.
247
* Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.
254
* Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.
