bzr-0.0.5 NOT RELEASED YET
5
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
6
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
8
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
9
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
10
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
13
* Under Windows configuration directory is now %APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0
14
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
16
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by BZR_HOME
17
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in BZR_HOME, then
18
in HOME. Under Windows the order is: BZR_HOME, APPDATA (usually
19
points to C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data), HOME.
22
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
23
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
24
used. (Robert Collins)
26
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
27
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
30
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
31
convention. Paths now take the form:
32
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
34
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
36
* Permissions on files underneath .bzr/ are inherited from the .bzr
37
directory. So for a shared repository, simply doing 'chmod -R g+w .bzr/'
38
will mean that future file will be created with group write permissions.
40
* configure.in and config.guess are no longer in the builtin default
43
* '.sw[nop]' pattern ignored, to ignore vim swap files for nameless
44
files. (John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool)
48
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
49
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
51
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
53
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
55
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
56
tree. (Robert Collins)
58
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
59
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
60
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
63
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
66
* Tweaks to short log printing
68
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
71
* If $BZR_PDB is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
74
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
75
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
77
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
78
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
80
* Commit editor temporary files now start with 'bzr_log.', to allow
81
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
82
settings. (Magnus Therning)
84
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
87
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
88
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
91
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
92
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
94
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
97
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
98
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
100
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
103
* 'bzr add' now takes a --dry-run parameter which shows you what would be
104
added, but doesn't actually add anything. (Michael Ellerman)
106
* bzr add now lists how many files were ignored per glob. add --verbose
107
lists the specific files. (Aaron Bentley)
111
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
113
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
115
* Error when run with -OO
117
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
120
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
122
* Change status to 3 for all errors
124
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
125
ignored by diff and status
127
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
128
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
130
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
132
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
134
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
135
status' output. (#4503, Daniel Silverstone)
137
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
138
email address. (Marien Zwart)
140
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages. (Harald
143
* List of plugin directories in BZR_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable is
144
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
146
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
148
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
149
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
151
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters. (Martin
154
* Remove Makefile.in from default ignore list. (#6413, Tollef Fog
159
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
160
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
162
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
164
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
166
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
168
* Updated build_tree to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
169
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
170
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
172
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
174
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
177
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
179
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
180
If adding a new test script please add that to
181
bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__. (Robert Collins)
183
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
184
imported. (Martin Pool)
186
* Make check now runs the test suite twice - once with the default locale,
187
and once with all locales forced to C, to expose bugs. This is not
188
trivially done within python, so for now its only triggered by running
189
Make check. Integrators and packagers who wish to check for full
190
platform support should run 'make check' to test the source.
193
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
194
(Martin Pool) (NB: TestSkipped should only be raised for correctable
195
reasons - see the wiki spec ImprovingBzrTestSuite).
197
* Test sftp with relative, absolute-in-homedir and absolute-not-in-homedir
198
paths for the transport tests. Introduce blackbox remote sftp tests that
199
test the same permutations. (Robert Collins, Robey Pointer)
201
* Transport implementation tests are now independent of the local file
202
system, which allows tests for esoteric transports, and for features
203
not available in the local file system. They also repeat for variations
204
on the URL scheme that can introduce issues in the transport code,
205
see bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter() for this.
208
* TestCase.build_tree uses the transport interface to build trees, pass
209
in a transport parameter to give it an existing connection.
214
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
215
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
217
* commands.display_command now returns the result of the decorated
218
function. (Robert Collins)
220
* LocationConfig now has a set_user_option(key, value) call to save
221
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
222
if needed). (Robert Collins)
224
* Branch has two new methods, get_push_location and set_push_location
225
to respectively, get and set the push location. (Robert Collins)
227
* commands.register_command now takes an optional flag to signal that
228
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
229
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
230
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
231
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
232
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
233
version. (Robert Collins)
235
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
236
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
238
* Branch.read_working_inventory has moved to
239
WorkingTree.read_working_inventory. This necessitated changes to
240
Branch.get_root_id, and a move of Branch.set_inventory to WorkingTree
241
as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always be obtained
242
Branch.working_tree() will raise 'errors.NoWorkingTree' if one cannot
243
be obtained. (Robert Collins)
245
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
248
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree:
256
* bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch is now smart_add_tree. (Robert Collins)
258
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
260
* Rename selftests to `bzrlib.tests.test_foo`. (John A Meinel, Martin
263
* bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins has been changed from an attribute to a
264
query method. (Robert Collins)
266
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
269
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
272
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in cmd_pull().
275
* Deprecated functions and methods can now be marked as such using the
276
bzrlib.symbol_versioning module. Marked method have their docstring
277
updated and will issue a DeprecationWarning using the warnings module
278
when they are used. (Robert Collins)
280
* bzrlib.osutils.safe_unicode now exists to provide parameter coercion
281
for functions that need unicode strings. (Robert Collins)
287
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
290
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
294
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
295
a separator, not ':'.
298
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
299
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
300
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
302
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
303
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
306
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
307
has been added that suppresses all output.
309
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
312
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
315
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
316
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
318
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
319
a revision. (Robert Collins)
321
* If you set check_signatures=require for a path in
322
~/.bazaar/branches.conf then bzr will invoke your
323
gpg_signing_command (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
324
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
326
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
328
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
329
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
331
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
332
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
334
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
335
output directory, if one was supplied.
337
* If the option 'post_commit' is set to one (or more) python function
338
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
339
after the commit has completed, with the branch and revision_id as
340
parameters. (Robert Collins)
342
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
344
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
345
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
347
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
348
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
349
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
351
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
352
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
354
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
357
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
359
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
363
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
364
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
365
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
367
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
368
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
369
related questions. (Robert Collins)
371
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
372
is given. (Martin Pool)
374
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
375
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
376
file. (Robert Collins)
378
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
383
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
384
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
385
representation. (Martin Pool).
387
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
388
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
389
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
391
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
394
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
395
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
398
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
399
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
400
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
401
available, construct a *Config, and use its signature_checking,
402
username and user_email methods. (Robert Collins)
404
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
405
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
406
import other plugins during the __init__ of your plugin though, as
407
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
408
python path. (Robert Collins)
410
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
411
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
412
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
413
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
415
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
416
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
418
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
419
lock_read, lock_write and unlock methods for convenience. (Robert
422
* Two decorators, needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock have been added
423
to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
424
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
426
* Branch.open_containing now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
427
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
428
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
430
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
431
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
433
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as WorkingTree.pull().
434
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
435
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
438
* config.Config has a 'get_user_option' call that accepts an option name.
439
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
440
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
441
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
444
* merge.merge_inner now has tempdir as an optional parameter. (Robert
447
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
448
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
451
* WorkingTree.__del__ has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
452
doing what it was intended to. See WorkingTree.__init__ for a comment
453
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
455
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
456
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
457
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
459
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
460
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
461
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
463
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
464
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
466
* 'merge_flex' no longer calls conflict_handler.finalize(), instead that
467
is called by merge_inner. This is so that the conflict count can be
468
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
469
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
470
caller. (Robert Collins)
472
* 'revision.revision_graph can handle having only partial history for
473
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
476
* New builtins.branch_files uses the standard file_list rules to produce
477
a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch (Aaron Bentley)
479
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
481
* New bzrlib.version_info tuple (similar to sys.version_info), which can
482
be used by programs importing bzrlib.
486
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
487
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
489
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
490
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
497
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
498
allow directories to be listed.
500
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
501
upgrading branch format.
505
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
512
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
513
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
514
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
515
high-latency connections.
519
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
522
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
523
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
525
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
526
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
527
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
528
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
530
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
531
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
533
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
534
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
536
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
537
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
538
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
540
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
541
for files with only a change to their executable status.
542
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
545
* HTTP tests now force off the use of http_proxy for the duration.
546
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
548
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
549
different partial views of history.
551
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
552
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
557
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
558
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
559
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
561
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
562
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
565
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
566
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
568
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
571
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
572
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
574
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
575
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
576
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
577
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
579
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
581
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
582
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
585
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
586
Contributed by Robert Collins.
588
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
589
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
590
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
595
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
596
for your viewing pleasure.
598
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
599
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
601
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
602
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
603
handling of such circumstances.
608
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
609
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
611
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
612
of tests to run, e.g. 'bzr selftest test_weave'
619
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
621
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
624
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
626
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
628
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
629
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
633
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
634
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
636
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
637
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
638
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
639
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
642
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
643
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
647
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
649
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
650
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
657
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
658
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
659
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
660
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
663
* Ignore .DS_Store (contains Mac metadata) by default. Patch from
666
* If you set BZR_EDITOR in the environment, it is checked in
667
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
668
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
669
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
670
for the operating system is still tried.
672
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
673
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
674
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
679
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
683
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
685
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
688
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
694
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
696
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
703
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
704
help with intelligent shell completion.
706
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
711
* Much better merge support.
713
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
714
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
720
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
721
mention revisions that are not present.
723
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
725
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
727
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
728
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
733
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
735
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
736
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
742
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
743
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
752
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
753
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
755
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
757
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
758
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
760
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
763
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
765
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
768
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
769
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
771
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
772
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
773
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
778
* Faster working tree operations.
783
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
784
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
785
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
786
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
788
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
789
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
790
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
791
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
792
standard plugins directory.
794
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
795
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
796
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
797
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
799
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
800
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
802
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
805
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
806
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
807
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
809
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
810
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
812
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
813
line options must come before the command name because they
814
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
815
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
818
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
820
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
821
is available with ``--short``.
826
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
833
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
834
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
836
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
837
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
838
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
839
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
841
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
842
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
843
with the ``--forward`` option.
845
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
846
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
5
852
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
6
853
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
855
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
857
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
858
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
860
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
862
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
863
either read or write mode.
865
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
867
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
870
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
872
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
873
suggested by LarstiQ.
875
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
876
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
878
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
881
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
882
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
884
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
885
haven't changed since the previous time.
887
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
888
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
890
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
892
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
894
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
895
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
897
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
898
options through to an external GNU diff.
900
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
903
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
909
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
910
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
912
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
918
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
919
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
922
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
923
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
925
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
926
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
928
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
929
under a different version.
931
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
936
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
938
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
941
* Better help messages for many commands.
943
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
944
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
946
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
947
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
949
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
951
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
953
* New AtomicFile class.
955
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
960
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
961
2.4 is now only recommended.
