* For users of bzrlib: Two major changes have been made to the working tree
6
api in bzrlib. The first is that many methods and attributes, including
7
the inventory attribute, are no longer valid for use until one of
8
lock_read/lock_write/lock_tree_write has been called, and become invalid
9
again after unlock is called. This has been done to improve performance
10
and correctness as part of the dirstate development. (Robert Collins,
11
John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
12
* For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
13
readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
14
its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
15
unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
16
format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
17
cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
18
combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API. (Robert
19
Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
