5
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
6
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
8
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
10
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
11
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
13
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
16
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
18
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
21
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
22
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
27
* Faster working tree operations.
32
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
33
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
34
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
35
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
37
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
38
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
39
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
40
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
41
standard plugins directory.
43
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
44
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
45
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
46
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
48
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
49
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
51
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
54
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
55
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
56
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
58
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
59
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
61
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
62
line options must come before the command name because they
63
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
64
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
67
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
69
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
70
is available with ``--short``.
75
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
82
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
83
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
85
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
86
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
87
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
88
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
90
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
91
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
92
with the ``--forward`` option.
94
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
95
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
101
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
102
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
104
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
106
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
107
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
109
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
111
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
112
either read or write mode.
114
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
116
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
119
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
121
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
122
suggested by LarstiQ.
124
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
125
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
127
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
130
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
131
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
133
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
134
haven't changed since the previous time.
136
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
137
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
139
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
141
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
143
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
144
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
146
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
147
options through to an external GNU diff.
149
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
152
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
158
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
159
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
161
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
167
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
168
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
171
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
172
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
174
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
175
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
177
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
178
under a different version.
180
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
185
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
187
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
190
* Better help messages for many commands.
192
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
193
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
195
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
196
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
198
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
200
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
202
* New AtomicFile class.
204
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
209
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
210
2.4 is now only recommended.
