5
* ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
6
In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
7
exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
8
already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
10
A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
11
exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file and
12
replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after`` will
13
only update the Bazaar identifier.
14
(Steffen Eichenberg, Marius Kruger)
16
* ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
19
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
24
* Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
25
versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
28
* New Branch hooks facility, with one initial hook 'set_rh' which triggers
29
whenever the revision history is set. This allows triggering on e.g.
30
push, pull, commit, and so on. Developed for use with the branchrss
31
plugin. See bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks for more details. (Robert Collins)
33
* New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
34
branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
35
level command ``push``. (Robert Collins).
37
* Add a new method ``Tree.revision_tree`` which allows access to cached
38
trees for arbitrary revisions. This allows the in development dirstate
39
tree format to provide access to the callers to cached copies of
40
inventory data which are cheaper to access than inventories from the
42
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
46
* ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
47
branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
48
(John Arbash Meinel, #82158)
50
* Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
55
* New ``--first`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to run specified tests
56
before the rest of the suite. (Martin Pool)
63
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options. (Aaron Bentley)
67
* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
68
available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
69
(John Arbash Meinel, #80330)
71
* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
72
working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
73
it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)
76
bzr 0.14rc1 2007-01-16
80
* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
81
protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
82
server, then you can write over the http connection.
83
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
85
* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
88
* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
89
the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
90
(and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)
92
* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
93
succeed. (Aaron Bentley)
95
* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
98
* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
99
of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
100
off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
101
of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
102
filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
103
calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)
105
* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
106
inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
107
should enable you to do::
110
push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
111
push_location:policy = appendpath
113
And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
114
automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
117
* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
118
for each file. For example::
126
* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
127
directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)
129
* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)
131
* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
132
local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)
134
* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)
138
* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
139
help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
140
lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
141
improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)
143
* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
144
resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
145
preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)
147
* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows. (Vincent Ladeuil)
149
* When 'encoding_type' attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
150
force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
151
keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
152
(Alexander Belchenko)
154
* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared. (Martin
157
* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
158
that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)
160
* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)
164
* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
165
direction. (John Arbash Meinel)
167
* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
168
revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
169
supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
170
``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
171
revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)
173
* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. \\HOST\path).
174
(Alexander Belchenko, #57869)
176
* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
177
line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)
179
* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
181
(Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)
183
* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
184
the test suite to test more cases. Also detect http error code 416
185
which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
186
robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
187
short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)
189
* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
190
proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
191
anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
192
problem. (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)
194
* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
195
(Aaron Bentley, #76229)
197
* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
198
lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)
200
* Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
201
(Wouter van Heyst, #31663)
203
* Allow plugins import from zip archives.
204
(Alexander Belchenko, #68124)
209
No changes from 0.13rc1
211
bzr 0.13rc1 2006-11-27
215
* New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
219
* urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
220
operations are substantially faster.
221
(Vincent Ladeuil, #53654)
223
* ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
224
tree from some other url. For example:
225
``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
228
* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
229
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
230
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
231
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)
233
* WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server. See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
236
* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
237
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
238
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
239
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
240
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
241
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)
245
* New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
246
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
249
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
250
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
253
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
254
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
255
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
258
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
259
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
261
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
262
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew
267
* Now _KnitIndex properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
268
And optimize the knit index parsing code. (Dmitry Vasiliev, John
271
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
272
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
273
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
274
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
276
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
278
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
279
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
281
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
282
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
283
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
284
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
286
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
287
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
288
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
290
* _KnitIndex.add_versions() dictionary compresses revision ids as they
291
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
292
them as full references rather than integers. (John Arbash Meinel,
295
* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
296
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)
298
* ``bzr ignore`` takes multiple arguments. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #29488)
300
* mv correctly handles paths that traverse symlinks.
301
(Aaron Bentley, #66964)
303
* Give nicer looking error messages when failing to connect over ssh.
304
(John Arbash Meinel, #49172)
306
* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
307
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
308
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
309
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
311
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
312
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
313
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
315
* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
316
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
318
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
319
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
320
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
321
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.
322
(Cheuksan Edward Wang, #30190)
326
* TestingHTTPRequestHandler really handles the Range header
327
(previously it was ignoring it and returning the whole file,).
333
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
334
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
337
bzr 0.12rc1 2006-10-23
341
* ``bzr log`` now shows dotted-decimal revision numbers for all revisions,
342
rather than just showing a decimal revision number for revisions on the
343
mainline. These revision numbers are not yet accepted as input into bzr
344
commands such as log, diff etc. (Robert Collins)
346
* revisions can now be specified using dotted-decimal revision numbers.
347
For instance, ``bzr diff -r 1.2.1..1.2.3. (Robert Collins)
5
349
* ``bzr help commands`` output is now shorter (Aaron Bentley)
351
* ``bzr`` now uses lazy importing to reduce the startup time. This has
352
a moderate effect on lots of actions, especially ones that have
353
little to do. For example ``bzr rocks`` time is down to 116ms from
354
283ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
356
* New Registry class to provide name-to-object registry-like support,
357
for example for schemes where plugins can register new classes to
358
do certain tasks (e.g. log formatters). Also provides lazy registration
359
to allow modules to be loaded on request. (John Arbash Meinel, Adeodato
364
* LogFormatter subclasses show now expect the 'revno' parameter to
365
show() to be a string rather than an int. (Robert Collins)
9
369
* ``TestCase.run_bzr``, ``run_bzr_captured``, and ``run_bzr_subprocess``
10
370
can take a ``working_dir='foo'`` parameter, which will change directory
11
371
for the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
373
* ``bzrlib.lazy_regex.lazy_compile`` can be used to create a proxy
374
around a regex, which defers compilation until first use.
377
* ``TestCase.run_bzr_subprocess`` defaults to supplying the
378
``--no-plugins`` parameter to ensure test reproducability, and avoid
379
problems with system-wide installed plugins. (John Arbash Meinel)
381
* Unique tree root ids are now supported. Newly created trees still
382
use the common root id for compatibility with bzr versions before 0.12.
13
385
* ``WorkingTree.set_root_id(None)`` is now deprecated. Please
14
386
pass in inventory.ROOT_ID if you want the default root id value.
