IN DEVELOPMENT

BUGFIXES:
4
5
* ``bzr init`` should connect to the remote location one time only. We
6
have been connecting several times because we forget to pass around the
7
Transport object. This modifies ``BzrDir.create_branch_convenience``,
8
so that we can give it the Transport we already have.
9
(John Arbash Meinel, Vincent Ladeuil, #111702)
10
11
* Get rid of sftp connection cache (get rid of the FTP one too).
12
(Vincent Ladeuil, #43731)
13
14
* bzr branch {local|remote} remote don't try to create a working tree
15
anymore.
16
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112173)
17
18
* All identified multiple connections for a single bzr command have been
19
fixed. See bzrlib/tests/commands directory.
20
(Vincent Ladeuil)
21
22
* ``bzr rm`` now does not insist on ``--force`` to delete files that
23
have been renamed but not otherwise modified. (Marius Kruger,
24
#111664)
25
26
* ``bzr selftest --bench`` no longer emits deprecation warnings
27
(Lukáš Lalinský)
28
29
* ``bzr status`` now honours FILE parameters for conflict lists
30
(Aaron Bentley, #127606)
31
32
* ``bzr checkout`` now honours -r when reconstituting a working tree.
33
It also honours -r 0. (Aaron Bentley, #127708)
34
35
IMPROVEMENTS:
36
37
* Don't show "dots" progress indicators when run non-interactively, such
38
as from cron. (Martin Pool)
39
40
* ``info`` now formats locations more nicely and lists "submit" and
41
"public" branches (Aaron Bentley)
42
43
* New ``pack`` command that will trigger database compression within
44
the repository (Robert Collins)
45
46
* Implement ``_KnitIndex._load_data`` in a pyrex extension. The pyrex
47
version is approximately 2-3x faster at parsing a ``.kndx`` file.
48
Which yields a measurable improvement for commands which have to
49
read from the repository, such as a 1s => 0.75s improvement in
50
``bzr diff`` when there are changes to be shown. (John Arbash Meinel)
51
52
* Merge is now faster. Depending on the scenario, it can be more than 2x
53
faster. (Aaron Bentley)
54
55
* Give a clearer warning, and allow ``python setup.py install`` to
56
succeed even if pyrex is not available.
57
(John Arbash Meinel)
58
59
* ``DirState._read_dirblocks`` now has an optional Pyrex
60
implementation. This improves the speed of any command that has to
61
read the entire DirState. (``diff``, ``status``, etc, improve by
62
about 10%).
63
``bisect_dirblocks`` has also been improved, which helps all
64
``_get_entry`` type calls (whenever we are searching for a
65
particular entry in the in-memory DirState).
66
(John Arbash Meinel)
67
68
* ``bzr pull`` and ``bzr push`` no longer do a complete walk of the
69
branch revision history for ui display unless -v is supplied.
70
(Robert Collins)
71
72
* ``bzr log -rA..B`` output shifted to the left margin if the log only
73
contains merge revisions. (Kent Gibson)
74
75
* The ``plugins`` command is now public with improved help.
76
(Ian Clatworthy)
77
78
* New bundle and merge directive formats are faster to generate, and
79
more robust against email mangling. (Aaron Bentley)
80
81
* Annotate merge now works when there are local changes. (Aaron Bentley)
82
83
* Commit now only shows the progress in terms of directories instead of
84
entries. (Ian Clatworthy)
85
86
LIBRARY API BREAKS:
87
88
* Deprecated dictionary ``bzrlib.option.SHORT_OPTIONS`` removed.
89
Options are now required to provide a help string and it must
90
comply with the style guide by being one or more sentences with an
91
initial capital and final period. (Martin Pool)
92
93
* KnitIndex.get_parents now returns tuples. (Robert Collins)
94
95
INTERNALS:
96
97
* merge now uses ``iter_changes`` to calculate changes, which makes room for
98
future performance increases. It is also more consistent with other
99
operations that perform comparisons, and reduces reliance on
100
Tree.inventory. (Aaron Bentley)
101
102
* Refactoring of transport classes connected to a remote server.
103
ConnectedTransport is a new class that serves as a basis for all
104
transports needing to connect to a remote server. transport.split_url
105
have been deprecated, use the static method on the object instead. URL
106
tests have been refactored too.
107
(Vincent Ladeuil)
108
109
* Better connection sharing for ConnectedTransport objects.
110
transport.get_transport() now accepts a 'possible_transports' parameter.
111
If a newly requested transport can share a connection with one of the
112
list, it will.
113
(Vincent Ladeuil)
114
115
* Most functions now accept ``bzrlib.revision.NULL_REVISION`` to indicate
116
the null revision, and consider using ``None`` for this purpose
117
deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)
118
119
* New ``index`` module with abstract index functionality. This will be
120
used during the planned changes in the repository layer. Currently the
121
index layer provides a graph aware immutable index, a builder for the
122
same index type to allow creating them, and finally a composer for
123
such indices to allow the use of many indices in a single query. The
124
index performance is not optimised, however the API is stable to allow
125
development on top of the index. (Robert Collins)
126
127
* ``bzrlib.dirstate.cmp_by_dirs`` can be used to compare two paths by
128
their directory sections. This is equivalent to comparing
129
``path.split('/')``, only without having to split the paths.
130
This has a Pyrex implementation available.
131
(John Arbash Meinel)
132
133
* New transport decorator 'unlistable+' which disables the list_dir
134
functionality for testing.
135
136
* New ``file_names.FileNames`` support class which mananges names
137
for unlistable transport situations. (Robert Collins)
138
139
* Deprecated ``change_entry`` in transform.py. (Ian Clatworthy)
140
141
* RevisionTree.get_weave is now deprecated. Tree.plan_merge is now used
142
for performing annotate-merge. (Aaron Bentley)
143
144
* New EmailMessage class to create email messages. (Adeodato Simó)
145
146
* Unused functions on the private interface KnitIndex have been removed.
147
(Robert Collins)
148
149
* New ``knit.KnitGraphIndex`` which provides a ``KnitIndex`` layered on top
150
of a ``index.GraphIndex``. (Robert Collins)
151
152
* New ``knit.KnitVersionedFile.iter_parents`` method that allows querying
153
the parents of many knit nodes at once, reducing round trips to the
154
underlying index. (Robert Collins)
155
156
TESTING:
157
158
* Remove selftest ``--clean-output``, ``--numbered-dirs`` and
159
``--keep-output`` options, which are obsolete now that tests
160
are done within directories in $TMPDIR. (Martin Pool)
161
162
* The SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable is now reset to avoid
163
interaction with any running ssh agents. (Jelmer Vernooij, #125955)
164
165
166
bzr 0.18 2007-07-17
167
168
BUGFIXES:
169
170
* Fix 'bzr add' crash under Win32 (Kuno Meyer)
171
172
173
bzr 0.18rc1 2007-07-10
174
175
BUGFIXES:
176
177
* Do not suppress pipe errors, etc. in non-display commands
178
(Alexander Belchenko, #87178)
179
180
* Display a useful error message when the user requests to annotate
181
a file that is not present in the specified revision.
182
(James Westby, #122656)
183
184
* Commands that use status flags now have a reference to 'help
185
status-flags'. (Daniel Watkins, #113436)
186
187
* Work around python-2.4.1 inhability to correctly parse the
188
authentication header.
189
(Vincent Ladeuil, #121889)
190
191
* Use exact encoding for merge directives. (Adeodato Simó, #120591)
192
193
* Fix tempfile permissions error in smart server tar bundling under
194
Windows. (Martin_, #119330)
195
196
* Fix detection of directory entries in the inventory. (James Westby)
197
198
* Fix handling of http code 400: Bad Request When issuing too many ranges.
199
(Vincent Ladeuil, #115209)
200
201
* Issue a CONNECT request when connecting to an https server
202
via a proxy to enable SSL tunneling.
203
(Vincent Ladeuil, #120678)
204
205
* Fix ``bzr log -r`` to support selecting merge revisions, both
206
individually and as part of revision ranges.
207
(Kent Gibson, #4663)
208
209
* Don't leave cruft behind when failing to acquire a lockdir.
210
(Martin Pool, #109169)
211
212
* Don't use the '-f' strace option during tests.
213
(Vincent Ladeuil, #102019).
214
215
* Warn when setting ``push_location`` to a value that will be masked by
216
locations.conf. (Aaron Bentley, #122286)
217
218
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
219
220
* Make annotate behave in a non-ASCII world (Adeodato Simó).
221
222
IMPROVEMENTS:
223
224
* The --lsprof-file option now dumps a text rendering of the profiling
225
information if the filename ends in ".txt". It will also convert the
226
profiling information to a format suitable for KCacheGrind if the
227
output filename ends in ".callgrind". Fixes to the lsprofcalltree
228
conversion process by Jean Paul Calderone and Itamar were also merged.
229
See http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree. (Ian Clatworthy)
230
231
* ``info`` now defaults to non-verbose mode, displaying only paths and
232
abbreviated format info. ``info -v`` displays all the information
233
formerly displayed by ``info``. (Aaron Bentley, Adeodato Simó)
234
235
* ``bzr missing`` now has better option names ``--this`` and ``--other``.
236
(Elliot Murphy)
237
238
* The internal ``weave-list`` command has become ``versionedfile-list``,
239
and now lists knits as well as weaves. (Aaron Bentley)
240
241
* Automatic merge base selection uses a faster algorithm that chooses
242
better bases in criss-cross merge situations (Aaron Bentley)
243
244
* Progress reporting in ``commit`` has been improved. The various logical
245
stages are now reported on as follows, namely:
246
247
* Collecting changes [Entry x/y] - Stage n/m
248
* Saving data locally - Stage n/m
249
* Uploading data to master branch - Stage n/m
250
* Updating the working tree - Stage n/m
251
* Running post commit hooks - Stage n/m
252
253
If there is no master branch, the 3rd stage is omitted and the total
254
number of stages is adjusted accordingly.
255
256
Each hook that is run after commit is listed with a name (as hooks
257
can be slow it is useful feedback).
258
(Ian Clatworthy, Robert Collins)
259
260
* Various operations that are now faster due to avoiding unnecessary
261
topological sorts. (Aaron Bentley)
262
263
* Make merge directives robust against broken bundles. (Aaron Bentley)
264
265
* The lsprof filename note is emitted via trace.note(), not standard
266
output. (Aaron Bentley)
267
268
* ``bzrlib`` now exports explicit API compatibility information to assist
269
library users and plugins. See the ``bzrlib.api`` module for details.
270
(Robert Collins)
271
272
* Remove unnecessary lock probes when acquiring a lockdir.
273
(Martin Pool)
274
275
* ``bzr --version`` now shows the location of the bzr log file, which
276
is especially useful on Windows. (Martin Pool)
277
278
* -D now supports hooks to get debug tracing of hooks (though its currently
279
minimal in nature). (Robert Collins)
280
281
* Long log format reports deltas on merge revisions.
282
(John Arbash Meinel, Kent Gibson)
283
284
* Make initial push over ftp more resilient. (John Arbash Meinel)
285
286
* Print a summary of changes for update just like pull does.
287
(Daniel Watkins, #113990)
288
289
* Add a -Dhpss option to trace smart protocol requests and responses.
290
(Andrew Bennetts)
291
292
LIBRARY API BREAKS:
293
294
* Testing cleanups -
295
``bzrlib.repository.RepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
296
to ``bzrlib.tests.repository_implementations``;
297
``bzrlib.repository.InterRepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
298
to ``bzrlib.tests.interrepository_implementations``;
299
``bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
300
``bzrlib.tests.test_transport_implementations``.
301
``bzrlib.branch.BranchTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
302
``bzrlib.tests.branch_implementations``.
303
``bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
304
``bzrlib.tests.bzrdir_implementations``.
305
``bzrlib.versionedfile.InterVersionedFileTestProviderAdapter`` has moved
306
to ``bzrlib.tests.interversionedfile_implementations``.
307
``bzrlib.store.revision.RevisionStoreTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
308
``bzrlib.tests.revisionstore_implementations``.
309
``bzrlib.workingtree.WorkingTreeTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
310
``bzrlib.tests.workingtree_implementations``.
311
These changes are an API break in the testing infrastructure only.
312
(Robert Collins)
313
314
* Relocate TestCaseWithRepository to be more central. (Robert Collins)
315
316
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` will no longer perform glob expansion on
317
win32. Callers of the function should do this and use the new
318
``MutableTree.smart_add`` method instead. (Robert Collins)
319
320
* ``bzrlib.add.glob_expand_for_win32`` is now
321
``bzrlib.win32utils.glob_expand``. (Robert Collins)
322
323
* ``bzrlib.add.FastPath`` is now private and moved to
324
``bzrlib.mutabletree._FastPath``. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
325
326
* ``LockDir.wait`` removed. (Martin Pool)
327
328
* The ``SmartServer`` hooks API has changed for the ``server_started`` and
329
``server_stopped`` hooks. The first parameter is now an iterable of
330
backing URLs rather than a single URL. This is to reflect that many
331
URLs may map to the external URL of the server. E.g. the server interally
332
may have a chrooted URL but also the local file:// URL will be at the
333
same location. (Robert Collins)
334
335
INTERNALS:
336
337
* New SMTPConnection class to unify email handling. (Adeodato Simó)
338
339
* Fix documentation of BzrError. (Adeodato Simó)
340
341
* Make BzrBadParameter an internal error. (Adeodato Simó)
342
343
* Remove use of 'assert False' to raise an exception unconditionally.
344
(Martin Pool)
345
346
* Give a cleaner error when failing to decode knit index entry.
347
(Martin Pool)
348
349
* TreeConfig would mistakenly search the top level when asked for options
350
from a section. It now respects the section argument and only
351
searches the specified section. (James Westby)
352
353
* Improve ``make api-docs`` output. (John Arbash Meinel)
354
355
* Use os.lstat rather than os.stat for osutils.make_readonly and
356
osutils.make_writeable. This makes the difftools plugin more
357
robust when dangling symlinks are found. (Elliot Murphy)
358
359
* New ``-Dlock`` option to log (to ~/.bzr.log) information on when
360
lockdirs are taken or released. (Martin Pool)
361
362
* ``bzrlib`` Hooks are now nameable using ``Hooks.name_hook``. This
363
allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current hook can
364
be displayed. (Robert Collins)
365
366
* ``Transport.get`` has had its interface made more clear for ease of use.
367
Retrieval of a directory must now fail with either 'PathError' at open
368
time, or raise 'ReadError' on a read. (Robert Collins)
369
370
* New method ``_maybe_expand_globs`` on the ``Command`` class for
371
dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32 platform. This
372
was moved from ``bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list``. (Robert Collins)
373
374
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add`` and ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` are now
375
deprecated in favour of ``MutableTree.smart_add``. (Robert Collins,
376
Martin Pool)
377
378
* New method ``external_url`` on Transport for obtaining the url to
379
hand to external processes. (Robert Collins)
380
381
* Teach windows installers to build pyrex/C extensions.
382
(Alexander Belchenko)
383
384
TESTING:
385
386
* Removed the ``--keep-output`` option from selftest and clean up test
387
directories as they're used. This reduces the IO load from
388
running the test suite and cuts the time by about half.
389
(Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
390
391
* Add scenarios as a public attribute on the TestAdapter classes to allow
392
modification of the generated scenarios before adaption and easier
393
testing. (Robert Collins)
394
395
* New testing support class ``TestScenarioApplier`` which multiplies
396
out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios. (RobertCollins)
397
398
* Setting ``repository_to_test_repository`` on a repository_implementations
399
test will cause it to be called during repository creation, allowing the
400
testing of repository classes which are not based around the Format
401
concept. For example a repository adapter can be tested in this manner,
402
by altering the repository scenarios to include a scenario that sets this
403
attribute during the test parameterisation in
404
``bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations``. (Robert Collins)
405
406
* Clean up many of the APIs for blackbox testing of Bazaar. The standard
407
interface is now self.run_bzr. The command to run can be passed as
408
either a list of parameters, a string containing the command line, or
409
(deprecated) varargs parameters. (Martin Pool)
410
411
* The base TestCase now isolates tests from -D parameters by clearing
412
``debug.debug_flags`` and restores it afterwards. (Robert Collins)
413
414
* Add a relpath parameter to get_transport methods in test framework to
415
avoid useless cloning.

BUGFIXES:
422
423
* Fix crash of commit due to wrong lookup of filesystem encoding.
424
(Colin Watson, #120647)
425
426

432
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
433
434
* The kind() and is_executable() APIs on the WorkingTree interface no
435
longer implicitly (read) locks and unlocks the tree. This *might*
436
impact some plug-ins and tools using this part of the API. If you find
437
an issue that may be caused by this change, please let us know,
438
particularly the plug-in/tool maintainer. If encountered, the API
439
fix is to surround kind() and is_executable() calls with lock_read()
440
and unlock() like so::
441
442
work_tree.lock_read()
443
try:
444
kind = work_tree.kind(...)
445
finally:
446
work_tree.unlock()
447
448
INTERNALS:
449
* Rework of LogFormatter API to provide beginning/end of log hooks and to
450
encapsulate the details of the revision to be logged in a LogRevision
451
object.
452
In long log formats, merge revision ids are only shown when --show-ids
453
is specified, and are labelled "revision-id:", as per mainline
454
revisions, instead of "merged:". (Kent Gibson)
455
456
* New ``BranchBuilder`` API which allows the construction of particular
457
histories quickly. Useful for testing and potentially other applications
458
too. (Robert Collins)
459
460
IMPROVEMENTS:
461
462
* There are two new help topics, working-trees and repositories that
463
attempt to explain these concepts. (James Westby, John Arbash Meinel,
464
Aaron Bentley)
465
466
* Added ``bzr log --limit`` to report a limited number of revisions.
467
(Kent Gibson, #3659)
468
469
* Revert does not try to preserve file contents that were originally
470
produced by reverting to a historical revision. (Aaron Bentley)
471
472
* ``bzr log --short`` now includes ``[merge]`` for revisions which
473
have more than one parent. This is a small improvement to help
474
understanding what changes have occurred
475
(John Arbash Meinel, #83887)
476
477
* TreeTransform avoids many renames when contructing large trees,
478
improving speed. 3.25x speedups have been observed for construction of
479
kernel-sized-trees, and checkouts are 1.28x faster. (Aaron Bentley)
480
481
* Commit on large trees is now faster. In my environment, a commit of
482
a small change to the Mozilla tree (55k files) has dropped from
483
66 seconds to 32 seconds. For a small tree of 600 files, commit of a
484
small change is 33% faster. (Ian Clatworthy)
485
486
* New --create-prefix option to bzr init, like for push. (Daniel Watkins,
487
#56322)
488
489
BUGFIXES:
490
491
* ``bzr push`` should only connect to the remote location one time.
492
We have been connecting 3 times because we forget to pass around
493
the Transport object. This adds ``BzrDir.clone_on_transport()``, so
494
that we can pass in the Transport that we already have.
495
(John Arbash Meinel, #75721)
496
497
* ``DirState.set_state_from_inventory()`` needs to properly order
498
based on split paths, not just string paths.
499
(John Arbash Meinel, #115947)
500
501
* Let TestUIFactoy encode the password prompt with its own stdout.
502
(Vincent Ladeuil, #110204)
503
504
* pycurl should take use the range header that takes the range hint
505
into account.
506
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112719)
507
508
* WorkingTree4.get_file_sha1 no longer raises an exception when invoked
509
on a missing file. (Aaron Bentley, #118186)
510
511
* WorkingTree.remove works correctly with tree references, and when pwd is
512
not the tree root. (Aaron Bentley)
513
514
* Merge no longer fails when a file is renamed in one tree and deleted
515
in the other. (Aaron Bentley, #110279)
516
517
* ``revision-info`` now accepts dotted revnos, doesn't require a tree,
518
and defaults to the last revision (Matthew Fuller, #90048)
519
520
* Tests no longer fail when BZR_REMOTE_PATH is set in the environment.
521
(Daniel Watkins, #111958)
522
523
* ``bzr branch -r revid:foo`` can be used to branch any revision in
524
your repository. (Previously Branch6 only supported revisions in your
525
mainline). (John Arbash Meinel, #115343)
526
527
bzr 0.16 2007-05-07
528
529
BUGFIXES:
530
531
* Handle when you have 2 directories with similar names, but one has a
532
hyphen. (``'abc'`` versus ``'abc-2'``). The WT4._iter_changes
533
iterator was using direct comparison and ``'abc/a'`` sorts after
534
``'abc-2'``, but ``('abc', 'a')`` sorts before ``('abc-2',)``.
535
(John Arbash Meinel, #111227)
536
537
* Handle when someone renames a file on disk without telling bzr.
538
Previously we would report the first file as missing, but not show
539
the new unknown file. (John Arbash Meinel, #111288)
540
541
* Avoid error when running hooks after pulling into or pushing from
542
a branch bound to a smartserver branch. (Martin Pool, #111968)
543
544
IMPROVEMENTS:
545
546
* Move developer documentation to doc/developers/. This reduces clutter in
547
the root of the source tree and allows HACKING to be split into multiple
548
files. (Robert Collins, Alexander Belchenko)
549
550
* Clean up the ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes()`` internal loops as well as
551
``DirState.update_entry()``. This optimizes the core logic for ``bzr
552
diff`` and ``bzr status`` significantly improving the speed of
553
both. (John Arbash Meinel)
554
555
bzr 0.16rc2 2007-04-30
556
557
BUGFIXES:
558
559
* Handle the case when you delete a file, and then rename another file
560
on top of it. Also handle the case of ``bzr rm --keep foo``. ``bzr
561
status`` should show the removed file and an unknown file in its
562
place. (John Arbash Meinel, #109993)
563
564
* Bundles properly read and write revision properties that have an
565
empty value. And when the value is not ASCII.
566
(John Arbash Meinel, #109613)
567
568
* Fix the bzr commit message to be in text mode.
569
(Alexander Belchenko, #110901)
570
571
* Also handle when you rename a file and create a file where it used
572
to be. (John Arbash Meinel, #110256)
573
574
* ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes`` should not descend into unversioned
575
directories. (John Arbash Meinel, #110399)
576
577
bzr 0.16rc1 2007-04-26
578
579
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
580
581
* ``bzr remove`` and ``bzr rm`` will now remove the working file, if
582
it could be recovered again.
583
This has been done for consistency with svn and the unix rm command.
584
The old ``remove`` behaviour has been retained in the new option
585
``bzr remove --keep``, which will just stop versioning the file,
586
but not delete it.
587
``bzr remove --force`` have been added which will always delete the
588
files.
589
``bzr remove`` is also more verbose.
590
(Marius Kruger, #82602)
591
592
IMPROVEMENTS:
593
594
* Merge directives can now be supplied as input to `merge` and `pull`,
595
like bundles can. (Aaron Bentley)
596
597
* Sending the SIGQUIT signal to bzr, which can be done on Unix by
598
pressing Control-Backslash, drops bzr into a debugger. Type ``'c'``
599
to continue. This can be disabled by setting the environment variable
600
``BZR_SIGQUIT_PDB=0``. (Martin Pool)
601
602
* selftest now supports --list-only to list tests instead of running
603
them. (Ian Clatworthy)
604
605
* selftest now supports --exclude PATTERN (or -x PATTERN) to exclude
606
tests with names that match that regular expression.
607
(Ian Clatworthy, #102679)
608
609
* selftest now supports --randomize SEED to run tests in a random order.
610
SEED is typically the value 'now' meaning 'use the current time'.
611
(Ian Clatworthy, #102686)
612
613
* New option ``--fixes`` to commit, which stores bug fixing annotations as
614
revision properties. Built-in support for Launchpad, Debian, Trac and
615
Bugzilla bug trackers. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge, Robert Collins)
616
617
* New API, ``bzrlib.bugtracker.tracker_registry``, for adding support for
618
other bug trackers to ``fixes``. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge,
619
Robert Collins)
620
621
* ``selftest`` has new short options ``-f`` and ``-1``. (Martin
622
Pool)
623
624
* ``bzrlib.tsort.MergeSorter`` optimizations. Change the inner loop
625
into using local variables instead of going through ``self._var``.
626
Improves the time to ``merge_sort`` a 10k revision graph by
627
approximately 40% (~700->400ms). (John Arbash Meinel)
628
629
* ``make docs`` now creates a man page at ``man1/bzr.1`` fixing bug 107388.
630
(Robert Collins)
631
632
* ``bzr help`` now provides cross references to other help topics using
633
the _see_also facility on command classes. Likewise the bzr_man
634
documentation, and the bzr.1 man page also include this information.
635
(Robert Collins)
636
637
* Tags are now included in logs, that use the long log formatter.
638
(Erik Bågfors, Alexander Belchenko)
639
640
* ``bzr help`` provides a clearer message when a help topic cannot be
641
found. (Robert Collins, #107656)
642
643
* ``bzr help`` now accepts optional prefixes for command help. The help
644
for all commands can now be found at ``bzr help commands/COMMANDNAME``
645
as well as ``bzr help COMMANDNAME`` (which only works for commands
646
where the name is not the same as a more general help topic).
647
(Robert Collins)
648
649
* ``bzr help PLUGINNAME`` will now return the module docstring from the
650
plugin PLUGINNAME. (Robert Collins, #50408)
651
652
* New help topic ``urlspec`` which lists the availables transports.
653
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
654
655
* doc/server.txt updated to document the default bzr:// port
656
and also update the blurb about the hpss' current status.
657
(Robert Collins, #107125).
658
659
* ``bzr serve`` now listens on interface 0.0.0.0 by default, making it
660
serve out to the local LAN (and anyone in the world that can reach the
661
machine running ``bzr serve``. (Robert Collins, #98918)
662
663
* A new smart server protocol version has been added. It prefixes requests
664
and responses with an explicit version identifier so that future protocol
665
revisions can be dealt with gracefully. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
666
667
* The bzr protocol version 2 indicates success or failure in every response
668
without depending on particular commands encoding that consistently,
669
allowing future client refactorings to be much more robust about error
670
handling. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool, Andrew Bennetts)
671
672
* The smart protocol over HTTP client has been changed to always post to the
673
same ``.bzr/smart`` URL under the original location when it can. This allows
674
HTTP servers to only have to pass URLs ending in .bzr/smart to the smart
675
server handler, and not arbitrary ``.bzr/*/smart`` URLs. (Andrew Bennetts)
676
677
* digest authentication is now supported for proxies and HTTP by the urllib
678
based http implementation. Tested against Apache 2.0.55 and Squid
679
2.6.5. Basic and digest authentication are handled coherently for HTTP
680
and proxy: if the user is provided in the url (bzr command line for HTTP,
681
proxy environment variables for proxies), the password is prompted for
682
(only once). If the password is provided, it is taken into account. Once
683
the first authentication is successful, all further authentication
684
roundtrips are avoided by preventively setting the right authentication
685
header(s).
686
(Vincent Ladeuil).
687
688
INTERNALS:
689
690
* bzrlib API compatability with 0.8 has been dropped, cleaning up some
691
code paths. (Robert Collins)
692
693
* Change the format of chroot urls so that they can be safely manipulated
694
by generic url utilities without causing the resulting urls to have
695
escaped the chroot. A side effect of this is that creating a chroot
696
requires an explicit action using a ChrootServer.
697
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
698
699
* Deprecate ``Branch.get_root_id()`` because branches don't have root ids,
700
rather than fixing bug #96847. (Aaron Bentley)
701
702
* ``WorkingTree.apply_inventory_delta`` provides a better alternative to
703
``WorkingTree._write_inventory``. (Aaron Bentley)
704
705
* Convenience method ``TestCase.expectFailure`` ensures that known failures
706
do not silently pass. (Aaron Bentley)
707
708
* ``Transport.local_abspath`` now raises ``NotLocalUrl`` rather than
709
``TransportNotPossible``. (Martin Pool, Ian Clatworthy)
710
711
* New SmartServer hooks facility. There are two initial hooks documented
712
in ``bzrlib.transport.smart.SmartServerHooks``. The two initial hooks allow
713
plugins to execute code upon server startup and shutdown.
714
(Robert Collins).
715
716
* SmartServer in standalone mode will now close its listening socket
717
when it stops, rather than waiting for garbage collection. This primarily
718
fixes test suite hangs when a test tries to connect to a shutdown server.
719
It may also help improve behaviour when dealing with a server running
720
on a specific port (rather than dynamically assigned ports).
721
(Robert Collins)
722
723
* Move most SmartServer code into a new package, bzrlib/smart.
724
bzrlib/transport/remote.py contains just the Transport classes that used
725
to be in bzrlib/transport/smart.py. (Andrew Bennetts)
726
727
* urllib http implementation avoid roundtrips associated with
728
401 (and 407) errors once the authentication succeeds.
729
(Vincent Ladeuil).
730
731
* urlib http now supports querying the user for a proxy password if
732
needed. Realm is shown in the prompt for both HTTP and proxy
733
authentication when the user is required to type a password.
734
(Vincent Ladeuil).
735
736
* Renamed SmartTransport (and subclasses like SmartTCPTransport) to
737
RemoteTransport (and subclasses to RemoteTCPTransport, etc). This is more
738
consistent with its new home in ``bzrlib/transport/remote.py``, and because
739
it's not really a "smart" transport, just one that does file operations
740
via remote procedure calls. (Andrew Bennetts)
741
742
* The ``lock_write`` method of ``LockableFiles``, ``Repository`` and
743
``Branch`` now accept a ``token`` keyword argument, so that separate
744
instances of those objects can share a lock if it has the right token.
745
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
746
747
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on ``BzrDir`` allows the detection of
748
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
749
750
* The Repository API ``make_working_trees`` is now permitted to return
751
False when ``set_make_working_trees`` is not implemented - previously
752
an unimplemented ``set_make_working_trees`` implied the result True
753
from ``make_working_trees``. This has been changed to accomodate the
754
smart server, where it does not make sense (at this point) to ever
755
make working trees by default. (Robert Collins)
756
757
* Command objects can now declare related help topics by having _see_also
758
set to a list of related topic. (Robert Collins)
759
760
* ``bzrlib.help`` now delegates to the Command class for Command specific
761
help. (Robert Collins)
762
763
* New class ``TransportListRegistry``, derived from the Registry class, which
764
simplifies tracking the available Transports. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
765
766
* New function ``Branch.get_revision_id_to_revno_map`` which will
767
return a dictionary mapping revision ids to dotted revnos. Since
768
dotted revnos are defined in the context of the branch tip, it makes
769
sense to generate them from a ``Branch`` object.
770
(John Arbash Meinel)
771
772
* Fix the 'Unprintable error' message display to use the repr of the
773
exception that prevented printing the error because the str value
774
for it is often not useful in debugging (e.g. KeyError('foo') has a
775
str() of 'foo' but a repr of 'KeyError('foo')' which is much more
776
useful. (Robert Collins)
777
778
* ``urlutils.normalize_url`` now unescapes unreserved characters, such as "~".
779
(Andrew Bennetts)
780
781
BUGFIXES:
782
783
* Don't fail bundle selftest if email has 'two' embedded.
784
(Ian Clatworthy, #98510)
785
786
* Remove ``--verbose`` from ``bzr bundle``. It didn't work anyway.
787
(Robert Widhopf-Fenk, #98591)
788
789
* Remove ``--basis`` from the checkout/branch commands - it didn't work
790
properly and is no longer beneficial.
791
(Robert Collins, #53675, #43486)
792
793
* Don't produce encoding error when adding duplicate files.
794
(Aaron Bentley)
795
796
* Fix ``bzr log <file>`` so it only logs the revisions that changed
797
the file, and does it faster.
798
(Kent Gibson, John Arbash Meinel, #51980, #69477)
799
800
* Fix ``InterDirstateTre._iter_changes`` to handle when we come across
801
an empty versioned directory, which now has files in it.
802
(John Arbash Meinel, #104257)
803
804
* Teach ``common_ancestor`` to shortcut when the tip of one branch is
805
inside the ancestry of the other. Saves a lot of graph processing
806
(with an ancestry of 16k revisions, ``bzr merge ../already-merged``
807
changes from 2m10s to 13s). (John Arbash Meinel, #103757)
808
809
* Fix ``show_diff_trees`` to handle the case when a file is modified,
810
and the containing directory is renamed. (The file path is different
811
in this versus base, but it isn't marked as a rename).
812
(John Arbash Meinel, #103870)
813
814
* FTP now works even when the FTP server does not support atomic rename.
815
(Aaron Bentley, #89436)
816
817
* Correct handling in bundles and merge directives of timezones with
818
that are not an integer number of hours offset from UTC. Always
819
represent the epoch time in UTC to avoid problems with formatting
820
earlier times on win32. (Martin Pool, Alexander Belchenko, John
821
Arbash Meinel)
822
823
* Typo in the help for ``register-branch`` fixed. (Robert Collins, #96770)
824
825
* "dirstate" and "dirstate-tags" formats now produce branches compatible
826
with old versions of bzr. (Aaron Bentley, #107168))
827
828
* Handle moving a directory when children have been added, removed,
829
and renamed. (John Arbash Meinel, #105479)
830
831
* Don't preventively use basic authentication for proxy before receiving a
832
407 error. Otherwise people willing to use other authentication schemes
833
may expose their password in the clear (or nearly). This add one
834
roundtrip in case basic authentication should be used, but plug the
835
security hole.
836
(Vincent Ladeuil)
837
838
* Handle http and proxy digest authentication.
839
(Vincent Ladeuil, #94034).
840
841
TESTING:
842
843
* Added ``bzrlib.strace.strace`` which will strace a single callable and
844
return a StraceResult object which contains just the syscalls involved
845
in running it. (Robert Collins)
846
847
* New test method ``reduceLockdirTimeout`` to drop the default (ui-centric)
848
default time down to one suitable for tests. (Andrew Bennetts)
849
850
* Add new ``vfs_transport_factory`` attribute on tests which provides the
851
common vfs backing for both the readonly and readwrite transports.
852
This allows the RemoteObject tests to back onto local disk or memory,
853
and use the existing ``transport_server`` attribute all tests know about
854
to be the smart server transport. This in turn allows tests to
855
differentiate between 'transport to access the branch', and
856
'transport which is a VFS' - which matters in Remote* tests.
857
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
858
859
* The ``make_branch_and_tree`` method for tests will now create a
860
lightweight checkout for the tree if the ``vfs_transport_factory`` is not
861
a LocalURLServer. (Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
862
863
* Branch implementation tests have been audited to ensure that all urls
864
passed to Branch APIs use proper urls, except when local-disk paths
865
are intended. This is so that tests correctly access the test transport
866
which is often not equivalent to local disk in Remote* tests. As part
867
of this many tests were adjusted to remove dependencies on local disk
868
access.
869
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
870
871
* Mark bzrlib.tests and bzrlib.tests.TestUtil as providing assertFOO helper
872
functions by adding a ``__unittest`` global attribute. (Robert Collins,
873
Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool, Jonathan Lange)
874
875
* Refactored proxy and authentication handling to simplify the
876
implementation of new auth schemes for both http and proxy.

CHANGES:

* A warning is now displayed when opening working trees in older
895
formats, to encourage people to upgrade to WorkingTreeFormat4.
896
(Martin Pool)
897
898
IMPROVEMENTS:
899
900
* HTTP redirections are now taken into account when a branch (or a
901
bundle) is accessed for the first time. A message is issued at each
902
redirection to inform the user. In the past, http redirections were
903
silently followed for each request which significantly degraded the
904
performances. The http redirections are not followed anymore by
905
default, instead a RedirectRequested exception is raised. For bzrlib
906
users needing to follow http redirections anyway,
907
``bzrlib.transport.do_catching_redirections`` provide an easy transition
908
path. (vila)
909
910
INTERNALS:
911
912
* Added ``ReadLock.temporary_write_lock()`` to allow upgrading an OS read
913
lock to an OS write lock. Linux can do this without unlocking, Win32
914
needs to unlock in between. (John Arbash Meinel)
915
916
* New parameter ``recommend_upgrade`` to ``BzrDir.open_workingtree``
917
to silence (when false) warnings about opening old formats.
918
(Martin Pool)
919
920
* Fix minor performance regression with bzr-0.15 on pre-dirstate
921
trees. (We were reading the working inventory too many times).
922
(John Arbash Meinel)
923
924
* Remove ``Branch.get_transaction()`` in favour of a simple cache of
925
``revision_history``. Branch subclasses should override
926
``_gen_revision_history`` rather than ``revision_history`` to make use of
927
this cache, and call ``_clear_revision_history_cache`` and
928
``_cache_revision_history`` at appropriate times. (Andrew Bennetts)
929
930
BUGFIXES:
931
932
* Take ``smtp_server`` from user config into account.
933
(vila, #92195)
934
935
* Restore Unicode filename handling for versioned and unversioned files.
936
(John Arbash Meinel, #92608)
937
938
* Don't fail during ``bzr commit`` if a file is marked removed, and
939
the containing directory is auto-removed. (John Arbash Meinel, #93681)
940
941
* ``bzr status FILENAME`` failed on Windows because of an uncommon
942
errno. (``ERROR_DIRECTORY == 267 != ENOTDIR``).
943
(Wouter van Heyst, John Arbash Meinel, #90819)
944
945
* ``bzr checkout source`` should create a local branch in the same
946
format as source. (John Arbash Meinel, #93854)
947
948
* ``bzr commit`` with a kind change was failing to update the
949
last-changed-revision for directories. The
950
InventoryDirectory._unchanged only looked at the ``parent_id`` and name,
951
ignoring the fact that the kind could have changed, too.
952
(John Arbash Meinel, #90111)
953
954
* ``bzr mv dir/subdir other`` was incorrectly updating files inside
955
the directory. So that there was a chance it would break commit,
956
etc. (John Arbash Meinel, #94037)
957
958
* Correctly handles mutiple permanent http redirections.

bzr 0.15rc2 2007-03-14
962
963
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
964
965
* Release 0.15rc2 of bzr changes the ``bzr init-repo`` command to
966
default to ``--trees`` instead of ``--no-trees``.
967
Existing shared repositories are not affected.
968
969
IMPROVEMENTS:
970
971
* New ``merge-directive`` command to generate machine- and human-readable
972
merge requests. (Aaron Bentley)
973
974
* New ``submit:`` revision specifier makes it easy to diff against the
975
common ancestor with the submit location (Aaron Bentley)
976
977
* Added support for Putty's SSH implementation. (Dmitry Vasiliev)
978
979
* Added ``bzr status --versioned`` to report only versioned files,
980
not unknowns. (Kent Gibson)
981
982
* Merge now autodetects the correct line-ending style for its conflict
983
markers. (Aaron Bentley)
984
985
INTERNALS:
986
987
* Refactored SSH vendor registration into SSHVendorManager class.
988
(Dmitry Vasiliev)
989
990
BUGFIXES:
991
992
* New ``--numbered-dirs`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to use
993
numbered dirs for TestCaseInTempDir. This is default behavior
994
on Windows. Anyone can force named dirs on Windows
995
with ``--no-numbered-dirs``. (Alexander Belchenko)
996
997
* Fix ``RevisionSpec_revid`` to handle the Unicode strings passed in
998
from the command line. (Marien Zwart, #90501)
999
1000
* Fix ``TreeTransform._iter_changes`` when both the source and
1001
destination are missing. (Aaron Bentley, #88842)
1002
1003
* Fix commit of merges with symlinks in dirstate trees.
1004
(Marien Zwart)
1005
1006
* Switch the ``bzr init-repo`` default from --no-trees to --trees.

bzr 0.15rc1 2007-03-07
1011
1012
SURPRISES:
1013
1014
* The default disk format has changed. Please run 'bzr upgrade' in your
1015
working trees to upgrade. This new default is compatible for network
1016
operations, but not for local operations. That is, if you have two
1017
versions of bzr installed locally, after upgrading you can only use the
1018
bzr 0.15 version. This new default does not enable tags or nested-trees
1019
as they are incompatible with bzr versions before 0.15 over the network.
1020
1021
* For users of bzrlib: Two major changes have been made to the working tree
1022
api in bzrlib. The first is that many methods and attributes, including
1023
the inventory attribute, are no longer valid for use until one of
1024
``lock_read``/``lock_write``/``lock_tree_write`` has been called,
1025
and become invalid again after unlock is called. This has been done
1026
to improve performance and correctness as part of the dirstate
1027
development.
1028
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
1029
1030
* For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
1031
readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
1032
its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
1033
unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
1034
format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
1035
cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
1036
combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API. (Robert
1037
Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
1038
1039
IMPROVEMENTS:
1040
1041
* Support for OS Windows 98. Also .bzr.log on any windows system
1042
saved in My Documents folder. (Alexander Belchenko)
1043
1044
* ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
1045
In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
1046
exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
1047
already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
1048
does exist.
1049
A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
1050
exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
1051
and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
1052
will only update the Bazaar identifier.
1053
(Steffen Eichenberg, Marius Kruger)
1054
1055
* ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
1056
(Aaron Bentley)
1057
1058
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
1059
(Aaron Bentley)
1060
1061
* ``bzr pull --overwrite`` will now correctly overwrite checkouts.
1062
(Robert Collins)
1063
1064
* Files are now allowed to change kind (e.g. from file to symlink).
1065
Supported by ``commit``, ``revert`` and ``status``
1066
(Aaron Bentley)
1067
1068
* ``inventory`` and ``unknowns`` hidden in favour of ``ls``
1069
(Aaron Bentley)
1070
1071
* ``bzr help checkouts`` descibes what checkouts are and some possible
1072
uses of them. (James Westby, Aaron Bentley)
1073
1074
* A new ``-d`` option to push, pull and merge overrides the default
1075
directory. (Martin Pool)
1076
1077
* Branch format 6: smaller, and potentially faster than format 5. Supports
1078
``append_history_only`` mode, where the log view and revnos do not change,
1079
except by being added to. Stores policy settings in
1080
".bzr/branch/branch.conf".
1081
1082
* ``append_only`` branches: Format 6 branches may be configured so that log
1083
view and revnos are always consistent. Either create the branch using
1084
"bzr init --append-revisions-only" or edit the config file as descriped
1085
in docs/configuration.txt.
1086
1087
* rebind: Format 6 branches retain the last-used bind location, so if you
1088
"bzr unbind", you can "bzr bind" to bind to the previously-selected
1089
bind location.
1090
1091
* Builtin tags support, created and deleted by the ``tag`` command and
1092
stored in the branch. Tags can be accessed with the revisionspec
1093
``-rtag:``, and listed with ``bzr tags``. Tags are not versioned
1094
at present. Tags require a network incompatible upgrade. To perform this
1095
upgrade, run ``bzr upgrade --dirstate-tags`` in your branch and
1096
repositories. (Martin Pool)
1097
1098
* The ``bzr://`` transport now has a well-known port number, 4155,
1099
which it will use by default. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
1100
1101
* Bazaar now looks for user-installed plugins before looking for site-wide
1102
plugins. (Jonathan Lange)
1103
1104
* ``bzr resolve`` now detects and marks resolved text conflicts.
1105
(Aaron Bentley)
1106
1107
INTERNALS:
1108
1109
* Internally revision ids and file ids are now passed around as utf-8
1110
bytestrings, rather than treating them as Unicode strings. This has
1111
performance benefits for Knits, since we no longer need to decode the
1112
revision id for each line of content, nor for each entry in the index.
1113
This will also help with the future dirstate format.
1114
(John Arbash Meinel)
1115
1116
* Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
1117
versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
1118
(Aaron Bentley)
1119
1120
* Minor performance improvement by not creating a ProgressBar for
1121
every KnitIndex we create. (about 90ms for a bzr.dev tree)
1122
(John Arbash Meinel)
1123
1124
* New easier to use Branch hooks facility. There are five initial hooks,
1125
all documented in bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks.__init__ - ``'set_rh'``,
1126
``'post_push'``, ``'post_pull'``, ``'post_commit'``,
1127
``'post_uncommit'``. These hooks fire after the matching operation
1128
on a branch has taken place, and were originally added for the
1129
branchrss plugin. (Robert Collins)
1130
1131
* New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
1132
branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
1133
level command ``push``. (Robert Collins).
1134
1135
* Add a new method ``Tree.revision_tree`` which allows access to cached
1136
trees for arbitrary revisions. This allows the in development dirstate
1137
tree format to provide access to the callers to cached copies of
1138
inventory data which are cheaper to access than inventories from the
1139
repository.
1140
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
1141
1142
* New ``Branch.last_revision_info`` method, this is being done to allow
1143
optimization of requests for both the number of revisions and the last
1144
revision of a branch with smartservers and potentially future branch
1145
formats. (Wouter van Heyst, Robert Collins)
1146
1147
* Allow ``'import bzrlib.plugins.NAME'`` to work when the plugin NAME has not
1148
yet been loaded by ``load_plugins()``. This allows plugins to depend on each
1149
other for code reuse without requiring users to perform file-renaming
1150
gymnastics. (Robert Collins)
1151
1152
* New Repository method ``'gather_stats'`` for statistic data collection.
1153
This is expected to grow to cover a number of related uses mainly
1154
related to bzr info. (Robert Collins)
1155
1156
* Log formatters are now managed with a registry.
1157
``log.register_formatter`` continues to work, but callers accessing
1158
the FORMATTERS dictionary directly will not.
1159
1160
* Allow a start message to be passed to the ``edit_commit_message``
1161
function. This will be placed in the message offered to the user
1162
for editing above the separator. It allows a template commit message
1163
to be used more easily. (James Westby)
1164
1165
* ``GPGStrategy.sign()`` will now raise ``BzrBadParameterUnicode`` if
1166
you pass a Unicode string rather than an 8-bit string. Callers need
1167
to be updated to encode first. (John Arbash Meinel)
1168
1169
* Branch.push, pull, merge now return Result objects with information
1170
about what happened, rather than a scattering of various methods. These
1171
are also passed to the post hooks. (Martin Pool)
1172
1173
* File formats and architecture is in place for managing a forest of trees
1174
in bzr, and splitting up existing trees into smaller subtrees, and
1175
finally joining trees to make a larger tree. This is the first iteration
1176
of this support, and the user-facing aspects still require substantial
1177
work. If you wish to experiment with it, use ``bzr upgrade
1178
--dirstate-with-subtree`` in your working trees and repositories.
1179
You can use the hidden commands ``split`` and ``join`` and to create
1180
and manipulate nested trees, but please consider using the nested-trees
1181
branch, which contains substantial UI improvements, instead.
1182
http://code.aaronbentley.com/bzr/bzrrepo/nested-trees/
1183
(Aaron Bentley, Martin Pool, Robert Collins).
1184
1185
BUGFIXES:
1186
1187
* ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
1188
branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
1189
(John Arbash Meinel, #82158)
1190
1191
* Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
1192
(Aaron Bentley)
1193
1194
* ``bzr push`` can resume a push that was canceled before it finished.
1195
Also, it can push even if the target directory exists if you supply
1196
the ``--use-existing-dir`` flag.
1197
(John Arbash Meinel, #30576, #45504)
1198
1199
* Fix http proxy authentication when user and an optional
1200
password appears in the ``*_proxy`` vars. (Vincent Ladeuil,
1201
#83954).
1202
1203
* ``bzr log branch/file`` works for local treeless branches
1204
(Aaron Bentley, #84247)
1205
1206
* Fix problem with UNC paths on Windows 98. (Alexander Belchenko, #84728)
1207
1208
* Searching location of CA bundle for PyCurl in env variable
1209
(``CURL_CA_BUNDLE``), and on win32 along the PATH.
1210
(Alexander Belchenko, #82086)
1211
1212
* ``bzr init`` works with unicode argument LOCATION.

* Ignore patterns normalised to use '/' path separator.
1222

1240
1241
BUG FIXES:
1242
1243
* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
1244
available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
1245
(John Arbash Meinel, #80330)
1246
1247
* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
1248
working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
1249
it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)
1250

1252
bzr 0.14rc1 2007-01-16
1253
1254
IMPROVEMENTS:
1255
1256
* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
1257
protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
1258
server, then you can write over the http connection.
1259
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
1260
1261
* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
1262
(Marius Kruger)
1263
1264
* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
1265
the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
1266
(and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)
1267
1268
* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
1269
succeed. (Aaron Bentley)
1270
1271
* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
1272
(Aaron Bentley)
1273
1274
* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
1275
of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
1276
off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
1277
of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
1278
filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
1279
calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)
1280
1281
* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
1282
inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
1283
should enable you to do::
1284
1285
[/home/user/project]
1286
push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
1287
push_location:policy = appendpath
1288
1289
And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
1290
automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
1291
(James Henstridge)
1292
1293
* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
1294
for each file. For example::
1295
1296
$ bzr status --short
1297
A foo
1298
A bar
1299
D baz
1300
? wooley
1301
1302
* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
1303
directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)
1304
1305
* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)
1306
1307
* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
1308
local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)
1309
1310
* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)
1311
1312
INTERNALS:
1313
1314
* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
1315
help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
1316
lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
1317
improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)
1318
1319
* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
1320
resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
1321
preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)
1322
1323
* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows. (Vincent Ladeuil)
1324
1325
* When ``encoding_type`` attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
1326
force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
1327
keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
1328
(Alexander Belchenko)
1329
1330
* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared. (Martin
1331
Pool)
1332
1333
* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
1334
that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)
1335
1336
* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)
1337
1338
BUG FIXES:
1339
1340
* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
1341
direction. (John Arbash Meinel)
1342
1343
* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
1344
revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
1345
supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
1346
``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
1347
revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)
1348
1349
* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. ``\HOST\path``.
1350
(Alexander Belchenko, #57869)
1351
1352
* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
1353
line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)
1354
1355
* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
1356
matcher.
1357
(Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)
1358
1359
* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
1360
the test suite to test more cases. Also detect http error code 416
1361
which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
1362
robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
1363
short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)
1364
1365
* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
1366
proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
1367
anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
1368
problem. (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)
1369
1370
* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
1371
(Aaron Bentley, #76229)

* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
1374
lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)

* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
1405
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
1406
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
1407
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)

* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
1413
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
1414
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
1415
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
1416
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
1417
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)

INTERNALS:

1422
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.

1425
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
1426
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
1427
(John Arbash Meinel)
1428
1429
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
1430
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
1431
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
1432

1434
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
1435
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
1436
1437
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on 'BzrDir' allows the detection of
1438
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
1439
1440
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
1441
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew

BUG FIXES:

1446
* Now ``_KnitIndex`` properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
1447
And optimize the knit index parsing code.
1448
(Dmitry Vasiliev, John Arbash Meinel)
1449
1450
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
1451
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
1452
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
1453
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
1454
1455
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
1456
1457
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
1458
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
1459
1460
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
1461
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
1462
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
1463
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
1464
1465
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
1466
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
1467
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
1468
1469
* ``_KnitIndex.add_versions()`` dictionary compresses revision ids as they
1470
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
1471
them as full references rather than integers.
1472
(John Arbash Meinel, #64789)

* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
1475
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)

* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
1486
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
1487
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
1488
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
1489
1490
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
1491
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
1492
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
1493

* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
1495
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
1496
1497
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
1498
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
1499
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
1500
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.

bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
3089
1576
handling of such circumstances.
3090
1577
3091
* Remove RevisionReference class; ``Revision.parent_ids`` is now simply a
3092
list of their ids and ``parent_sha1s`` is a list of their corresponding
3093
sha1s (for old branches only at the moment.)
3094
3095
* New method-object style interface for Commit() and Fetch().
3096
3097
* Renamed ``Branch.last_patch()`` to ``Branch.last_revision()``, since
3098
we call them revisions not patches.
3099
3100
* Move ``copy_branch`` to ``bzrlib.clone.copy_branch``. The destination
3101
directory is created if it doesn't exist.
3102
3103
* Inventories now identify the files which were present by
3104
giving the revision *of that file*.
3105

This must be consistent with the overall branch version
