5
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
6
help with intelligent shell completion.
11
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
12
mention revisions that are not present.
19
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
20
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
22
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
24
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
25
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
27
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
30
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
32
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
35
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
36
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
38
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
39
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
40
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
45
* Faster working tree operations.
50
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
51
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
52
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
53
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
55
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
56
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
57
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
58
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
59
standard plugins directory.
61
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
62
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
63
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
64
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
66
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
67
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
69
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
72
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
73
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
74
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
76
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
77
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
79
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
80
line options must come before the command name because they
81
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
82
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
85
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
87
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
88
is available with ``--short``.
93
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
100
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
101
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
103
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
104
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
105
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
106
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
108
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
109
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
110
with the ``--forward`` option.
112
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
113
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
119
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
120
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
122
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
124
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
125
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
127
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
129
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
130
either read or write mode.
132
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
134
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
137
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
139
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
140
suggested by LarstiQ.
142
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
143
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
145
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
148
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
149
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
151
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
152
haven't changed since the previous time.
154
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
155
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
157
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
159
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
161
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
162
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
164
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
165
options through to an external GNU diff.
167
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
170
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
176
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
177
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
179
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
185
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
186
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
189
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
190
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
192
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
193
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
195
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
196
under a different version.
198
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
203
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
205
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
208
* Better help messages for many commands.
210
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
211
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
213
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
214
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
216
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
218
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
220
* New AtomicFile class.
222
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
227
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
228
2.4 is now only recommended.
235
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
236
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
238
* More default ignore patterns.
240
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
241
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
243
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
245
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
248
* New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.
253
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
254
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
255
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
256
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
257
there are DNS problems.
259
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
264
* Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.
266
* Some Unicode/locale fixes.
268
* Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling
269
trailing newlines properly.
274
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
277
* More tests in test.sh.
279
* Write profile data to a temporary file not into working
280
directory and delete it when done.
282
* Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.
287
* Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows. Patch from Andrew
290
* Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch
298
* New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories
301
* Can now say "bzr commit --help".
303
* New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name
306
* New "move" command to move one or more files into a different
309
* New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.
311
* New cat command contributed by janmar.
315
* .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in
316
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
321
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an
322
exception when comparing empty files. Reported by Erik Toubro
327
* Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.
331
* Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.
338
* Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.
