CHANGES:
11
12
FEATURES
13
14
IMPROVEMENTS:
15
16
* ``bzr annotate`` will now include uncommitted changes from the local
17
working tree by default. Such uncommitted changes are given the
18
revision number they would get if a commit was done, followed with a
19
? to indicate that its not actually known. (Robert Collins, #3439)
20
21
* ``bzr branch`` now accepts a ``--standalone`` option, which creates a
22
standalone branch regardless of the presence of shared repositories.
23
(Daniel Watkins)
24
25
* ``bzr push`` is faster in the case there are no new revisions to
26
push. It is also faster if there are no tags in the local branch.
27
(Andrew Bennetts)
28
29
* Location aliases can now accept a trailing path. (Micheal Hudson)
30
31
* Switching in heavyweight checkouts uses the master branch's context, not
32
the checkout's context. (Adrian Wilkins)
33
34
* ``status`` on large trees is now faster, due to optimisations in the
35
walkdirs code. Of particular note, the walkdirs code now performs
36
a temporary ``chdir()`` while reading a single directory; if your
37
platform has non thread-local current working directories (and is
38
not windows which has its own implementation), this may introduce a
39
race condition during concurrent uses of bzrlib. The bzrlib CLI
40
will not encounter this as it is single threaded for working tree
41
operations. (Robert Collins)
42
43
BUG FIXES:
44
45
* Branching from a shared repository on a smart server into a new
46
repository now preserves the repository format.
47
(Andrew Bennetts, #269214)
48
49
* ``bzr missing`` now accepts an ``--include-merges`` option.
50
(Vincent Ladeuil, #233817)
51
52
* Don't try to filter (internally) '.bzr' from the files to be deleted if
53
it's not there.
54
(Vincent Ladeuil, #272648)
55
56
* Fix '_in_buffer' AttributeError when using the -Dhpss debug flag.
57
(Andrew Bennetts)
58
59
* Fix TooManyConcurrentRequests errors caused by a connection failure
60
when doing ``bzr pull`` or ``bzr merge`` from a ``bzr+ssh`` URL.
61
(Andrew Bennetts, #246233)
62
63
* Make the first line of the manpage preamble a comment again.
64
(David Futcher, #242106)
65
66
DOCUMENTATION:
67

* Explain revision/range identifiers. (Daniel Clemente)

API CHANGES:
71
72
TESTING:
73
74
* ``bzrlib.tests.repository_implementations`` has been renamed to
75
``bzrlib.tests.per_repository`` so that we have a common structure
76
(and it is shorter). (John Arbash Meinel, #239343)
77
78
* ``LocalTransport.abspath()`` now returns a drive letter if the
79
transport has one, fixing numerous tests on Windows.
80
(Mark Hammond)
81
82
* The full test suite is passing again on OSX.
83
(Guillermo Gonzalez, Vincent Ladeuil)
84
85
* PreviewTree is now tested via intertree_implementations.
86
(Aaron Bentley)
87
88
INTERNALS:
89
90
* A new hook, ``Branch.open``, has been added, which is called when
91
branch objects are opened. (Robert Collins)
92
93
* ``bzrlib.osutils._walkdirs_utf8`` has been refactored into common
94
tree walking, and modular directory listing code to aid future
95
performance optimisations and refactoring. (Robert Collins)

103
* Branching from a shared repository on a smart server into a new
104

105
(Andrew Bennetts, #269214)
106
107
* Fix '_in_buffer' AttributeError when using the -Dhpss debug flag.
108
(Andrew Bennetts)
109
110
* ``bzr init`` no longer re-opens the BzrDir multiple times.

bzr 1.7rc1 2008-09-09
115
---------------------
116
117
This release candidate for bzr 1.7 has several bug fixes and a few
118
performance and feature improvements. ``bzr rm`` will now scan for
119
missing files and remove them, like how ``bzr add`` scans for unknown
120
files and adds them. A bit more polish has been applied to the stacking
121
code. The b-tree indexing code has been brought in, with an eye on using
122
it in a future repository format.
123
124
125
CHANGES:
126
127
* ``bzr export`` can now export a subdirectory of a project.
128
(Robert Collins)
129
130
* ``bzr remove-tree`` will now refuse to remove a tree with uncommitted
131
changes, unless the ``--force`` option is specified.
132
(Lukáš Lalinský, #74101)
133
134
* ``bzr rm`` will now scan for files that are missing and remove just
135
them automatically, much as ``bzr add`` scans for new files that
136
are not ignored and adds them automatically. (Robert Collins)
137
138
FEATURES
139
140
* Support for GSSAPI authentication when using FTP as documented in
141
RFC2228. (Jelmer Vernooij, #49623)
142
143
* Add support for IPv6 in the smart server. (Jelmer Vernooij, #165014)
144
145
IMPROVEMENTS:
146
147
* A url like ``log+file:///tmp`` will log all access to that Transport
148
to ``.bzr.log``, which may help in debugging or profiling.
149
(Martin Pool)
150
151
* ``bzr branch`` and ``bzr push`` use the default stacking policy if the
152
branch format supports it. (Aaron Bentley)
153
154
* ``bzr init`` and ``bzr init-repo`` will now print out the same as
155
``bzr info`` if it completed successfully.
156
(Marius Kruger)
157
158
* ``bzr uncommit`` logs the old tip revision id, and displays how to
159
restore the branch to that tip using ``bzr pull``. This allows you
160
to recover if you realize you uncommitted the wrong thing.
161
(John Arbash Meinel)
162
163
* Fix problems in accessing stacked repositories over ``bzr://``.
164
(Martin Pool, #261315)
165
166
* ``SFTPTransport.readv()`` was accidentally using ``list += string``,
167
which 'works', but adds each character separately to the list,
168
rather than using ``list.append(string)``. Fixing this makes the
169
SFTP transport a little bit faster (~20%) and use a bit less memory.
170
(John Arbash Meinel)
171
172
* When reading index files, if we happen to read the whole file in a
173
single request treat it as a ``_buffer_all`` request. This happens
174
most often on small indexes over remote transports, where we default
175
to reading 64kB. It saves a round trip for each small index during
176
fetch operations. Also, if we have read more than 50% of an index
177
file, trigger a ``_buffer_all`` on the next request. This works
178
around some inefficiencies because reads don't fall neatly on page
179
boundaries, so we would ignore those bytes, but request them again
180
later. This could trigger a total read size of more than the whole
181
file. (John Arbash Meinel)
182
183
BUG FIXES:
184
185
* ``bzr rm`` is now aliased to ``bzr del`` for the convenience of svn
186
users. (Robert Collins, #205416)
187
188
* Catch the infamous "select/poll returned error" which occurs when
189
pycurl try to send a body request to an HTTP/1.0 server which has
190
already refused to handle the request. (Vincent Ladeuil, #225020)
191
192
* Fix ``ObjectNotLocked`` errors when using various commands
193
(including ``bzr cat`` and ``bzr annotate``) in combination with a
194
smart server URL. (Andrew Bennetts, #237067)
195
196
* ``FTPTransport.stat()`` would return ``0000`` as the permission bits
197
for the containing ``.bzr/`` directory (it does not implement
198
permissions). This would cause us to set all subdirectories to
199
``0700`` and files to ``0600`` rather than leaving them unmodified.
200
Now we ignore ``0000`` as the permissions and assume they are
201
invalid. (John Arbash Meinel, #259855)
202
203
* Merging from a previously joined branch will no longer cause
204
a traceback. (Jelmer Vernooij, #203376)
205
206
* Pack operations on windows network shares will work even with large
207
files. (Robert Collins, #255656)
208
209
* Running ``bzr st PATH_TO_TREE`` will no longer suppress merge
210
status. Status is also about 7% faster on mozilla sized trees
211
when the path to the root of the tree has been given. Users of
212
the internal ``show_tree_status`` function should be aware that
213
the show_pending flag is now authoritative for showing pending
214
merges, as it was originally. (Robert Collins, #225204)
215
216
* Set valid default _param_name for Option so that ListOption can embed
217
'-' in names. (Vincent Ladeuil, #263249)
218
219
* Show proper error rather than traceback when an unknown revision
220
id is specified to ``bzr cat-revision``. (Jelmer Vernooij, #175569)
221
222
* Trailing text in the dirstate file could cause the C dirstate parser
223
to try to allocate an invalid amount of memory. We now properly
224
check and test for parsing a dirstate with invalid trailing data.
225
(John Arbash Meinel, #186014)
226
227
* Unexpected error responses from a smart server no longer cause the
228
client to traceback. (Andrew Bennetts, #263527)
229
230
* Use a Windows api function to get a Unicode host name, rather than
231
assuming the host name is ascii.
232
(Mark Hammond, John Arbash Meinel, #256550)
233
234
* ``WorkingTree4`` trees will now correctly report missing-and-new
235
paths in the output of ``iter_changes``. (Robert Collins)
236
237
DOCUMENTATION:
238
239
* Updated developer documentation. (Martin Pool)
240
241
API CHANGES:
242
243
* Exporters now take 4 parameters. (Robert Collins)
244
245
* ``Tree.iter_changes`` will now return False for the content change
246
field when a file is missing in the basis tree and not present in
247
the target tree. Previously it returned True unconditionally.
248
(Robert Collins)
249
250
* The deprecated ``Branch.abspath`` and unimplemented
251
``Branch.rename_one`` and ``Branch.move`` were removed. (Jelmer Vernooij)
252
253
* BzrDir.clone_on_transport implementations must now accept a stacked_on
254
parameter. (Aaron Bentley)
255
256
* BzrDir.cloning_metadir implementations must now take a require_stacking
257
parameter. (Aaron Bentley)
258
259
TESTING:
260
261
* ``addCleanup`` now takes ``*arguments`` and ``**keyword_arguments``
262
which are then passed to the cleanup callable as it is run. In
263
addition, addCleanup no longer requires that the callables passed to
264
it be unique. (Jonathan Lange)
265
266
* Fix some tests that fail on Windows because files are deleted while
267
still in use.
268
(Mark Hammond)
269
270
* ``selftest``'s ``--starting-with`` option can now use predefined
271
prefixes so that one can say ``bzr selftest -s bp.loom`` instead of
272
``bzr selftest -s bzrlib.plugins.loom``. (Vincent Ladeuil)
273
274
* ``selftest``'s ``--starting-with`` option now accepts multiple values.
275
(Vincent Ladeuil)
276
277
INTERNALS:
278
279
* A new plugin interface, ``bzrlib.log.log_adapters``, has been added.
280
This allows dynamic log output filtering by plugins.
281
(Robert Collins)
282
283
* ``bzrlib.btree_index`` is now available, providing a b-tree index
284
layer. The design is memory conservative (limited memory cache),
285
faster to seek (approx 100 nodes per page, gives 100-way fan out),
286
and stores compressed pages allowing more keys per page.
287
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
288
289
* ``bzrlib.diff.DiffTree.show_diff`` now skips changes where the kind
290
is unknown in both source and target.
291
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley)
292
293
* ``GraphIndexBuilder.add_node`` and ``BTreeBuilder`` have been
294
streamlined a bit. This should make creating large indexes faster.
295
(In benchmarking, it now takes less time to create a BTree index than
296
it takes to read the GraphIndex one.) (John Arbash Meinel)
297
298
* Mail clients for `bzr send` are now listed in a registry. This
299
allows plugins to add new clients by registering them with
300
``bzrlib.mail_client.mail_client_registry``. All of the built-in
301
clients now use this mechanism. (Neil Martinsen-Burrell)
302
303
304
bzr 1.6.1 2008-09-05
305
--------------------
306
307
A couple regressions were found in the 1.6 release. There was a
308
performance issue when using ``bzr+ssh`` to branch large repositories,
309
and some problems with stacking and ``rich-root`` capable repositories.
310
311
312
bzr 1.6.1rc2 2008-09-03
313
-----------------------
314
315
BUG FIXES:
316
317
* Copying between ``rich-root`` and ``rich-root-pack`` (and vice
318
versa) was accidentally using the inter-model fetcher, instead of
319
recognizing that both were 'rich root' formats.
320
(John Arbash Meinel, #264321)
321
322
323
bzr 1.6.1rc1 2008-08-29
324
-----------------------
325
326
This release fixes a few regressions found in the 1.6 client. Fetching
327
changes was using an O(N^2) buffering algorithm, so for large projects it
328
would cause memory thrashing. There is also a specific problem with the
329
``--1.6-rich-root`` format, which prevented stacking on top of
330
``--rich-root-pack`` repositories, and could allow users to accidentally
331
fetch experimental data (``-subtree``) without representing it properly.
332
The ``--1.6-rich-root`` format has been deprecated and users are
333
recommended to upgrade to ``--1.6.1-rich-root`` immediately. Also we
334
re-introduced a workaround for users who have repositories with incorrect
335
nodes (not possible if you only used official releases).
336
I should also clarify that none of this is data loss level issues, but
337
still sufficient enough to warrant an updated release.
338
339
BUG FIXES:
340
341
* ``RemoteTransport.readv()`` was being inefficient about how it
342
buffered the readv data and processed it. It would keep appending to
343
the same string (causing many copies) and then pop bytes out of the
344
start of the string (causing more copies).
345
With this patch "bzr+ssh://local" can improve dramatically,
346
especially for projects with large files.
347
(John Arbash Meinel)
348
349
* Revision texts were always meant to be stored as fulltexts. There
350
was a bug in a bzr.dev version that would accidentally create deltas
351
when copying from a Pack repo to a Knit repo. This has been fixed,
352
but to support those repositories, we know always request full texts
353
for Revision texts. (John Arbash Meinel, #261339)
354
355
* The previous ``--1.6-rich-root`` format used an incorrect xml
356
serializer, which would accidentally support fetching from a
357
repository that supported subtrees, even though the local one would
358
not. We deprecated that format, and introduced a new one that uses
359
the correct serializer ``--1.6.1-rich-root``.
360
(John Arbash Meinel, #262333)
361
362
363
bzr 1.6 2008-08-25
364
------------------
365
366
Finally, the long awaited bzr 1.6 has been released. This release includes
367
new features like Stacked Branches, improved weave merge, and an updated
368
server protocol (now on v3) which will allow for better cross version
369
compatibility. With this release we have deprecated Knit format
370
repositories, and recommend that users upgrade them, we will continue to
371
support reading and writing them for the forseeable future, but we will
372
not be tuning them for performance as pack repositories have proven to be
373
better at scaling. This will also be the first release to bundle
374
TortoiseBzr in the standalone Windows installer.
375
376
377
bzr 1.6rc5 2008-08-19
378
---------------------
379
380
BUG FIXES:
381
382
* Disable automatic detection of stacking based on a containing
383
directory of the target. It interacted badly with push, and needs a
384
bit more work to get the edges polished before it should happen
385
automatically. (John Arbash Meinel, #259275)
386
(This change was reverted when merged to bzr.dev)
387
388
389
bzr 1.6rc4 2008-08-18
390
---------------------
391
392
BUG FIXES:
393
394
* Fix a regression in knit => pack fetching. We had a logic
395
inversion, causing the fetch to insert fulltexts in random order,
396
rather than preserving deltas. (John Arbash Meinel, #256757)
397
398
399
bzr 1.6rc3 2008-08-14
400
---------------------
401
402
CHANGES:
403
404
* Disable reading ``.bzrrules`` as a per-branch rule preferences
405
file. The feature was not quite ready for a full release.
406
(Robert Collins)
407
408
IMPROVEMENTS:
409
410
* Update the windows installer to bundle TortoiseBzr and ``qbzr``
411
into the standalone installer. This will be the first official
412
windows release that installs Tortoise by default.
413
(Mark Hammond)
414
415
BUG FIXES:
416
417
* Fix a regression in ``bzr+http`` support. There was a missing
418
function (``_read_line``) that needed to be carried over from
419
``bzr+ssh`` support. (Andrew Bennetts)
420
421
* ``GraphIndex`` objects will internally read an entire index if more
422
than 1/20th of their keyspace is requested in a single operation.
423
This largely mitigates a performance regression in ``bzr log FILE``
424
and completely corrects the performance regression in ``bzr log``.
425
The regression was caused by removing an accomodation which had been
426
supporting the index format in use. A newer index format is in
427
development which is substantially faster. (Robert Collins)
428
429
430
bzr 1.6rc2 2008-08-13
431
---------------------
432
433
This release candidate has a few minor bug fixes, and some regression
434
fixes for Windows.
435
436
BUG FIXES:
437
438
* ``bzr upgrade`` on remote branches accessed via bzr:// and
439
bzr+ssh:// now works. (Andrew Bennetts)
440
441
* Change the ``get_format_description()`` strings for
442
``RepositoryFormatKnitPack5`` et al to be single line messages.
443
(Aaron Bentley)
444
445
* Fix for a regression on Win32 where we would try to call
446
``os.listdir()`` on a file and not catch the exception properly.
447
(Windows raises a different exception.) This would manifest in
448
places like ``bzr rm file`` or ``bzr switch``.
449
(Mark Hammond, John Arbash Meinel)
450
451
* ``Inventory.copy()`` was failing to set the revision property for
452
the root entry. (Jelmer Vernooij)
453
454
* sftp transport: added missing ``FileExists`` case to
455
``_translate_io_exception`` (Christophe Troestler, #123475)
456
457
* The help for ``bzr ignored`` now suggests ``bzr ls --ignored`` for
458
scripting use. (Robert Collins, #3834)
459
460
* The default ``annotate`` logic will now always assign the
461
last-modified value of a line to one of the revisions that modified
462
it, rather than a merge revision. This would happen when both sides
463
claimed to have modified the line resulting in the same text. The
464
choice is arbitrary but stable, so merges in different directions
465
will get the same results. (John Arbash Meinel, #232188)

468
bzr 1.6rc1 2008-08-06
469
---------------------
470
471
This release candidate for bzr 1.6 solidifies the new branch stacking
472
feature. Bazaar now recommends that users upgrade all knit repositories,
473
because later formats are much faster. However, we plan to continue read/write and
474
upgrade support for knit repostories for the forseeable future. Several
475
other bugs and performance issues were fixed.
476
477
CHANGES:
478
479
* Knit format repositories are deprecated and bzr will now emit
480
warnings whenever it encounters one. Use ``bzr upgrade`` to upgrade
481
knit repositories to pack format. (Andrew Bennetts)
482
483
IMPROVEMENTS:
484
485
* ``bzr check`` can now be told which elements at a location it should
486
check. (Daniel Watkins)
487
488
* Commit now supports ``--exclude`` (or ``-x``) to exclude some files
489
from the commit. (Robert Collins, #3117)
490
491
* Fetching data between repositories that have the same model but no
492
optimised fetcher will not reserialise all the revisions, increasing
493
performance. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
494
495
* Give a more specific error when target branch is not reachable.
496
(James Westby)
497
498
* Implemented a custom ``walkdirs_utf8`` implementation for win32.
499
This uses a pyrex extension to get direct access to the
500
``FindFirstFileW`` style apis, rather than using ``listdir`` +
501
``lstat``. Shows a very strong improvement in commands like
502
``status`` and ``diff`` which have to iterate the working tree.
503
Anywhere from 2x-6x faster depending on the size of the tree (bigger
504
trees, bigger benefit.) (John Arbash Meinel)
505
506
* New registry for log properties handles and the method in
507
LongLogFormatter to display the custom properties returned by the
508
registered handlers. (Guillermo Gonzalez, #162469)
509
510
BUG FIXES:
511
512
* Add more tests that stacking does not create deltas spanning
513
physical repository boundaries.
514
(Martin Pool, #252428)
515
516
* Better message about incompatible repositories.
517
(Martin Pool, #206258)
518
519
* ``bzr branch --stacked`` ensures the destination branch format can
520
support stacking, even if the origin does not.
521
(Martin Pool)
522
523
* ``bzr export`` no longer exports ``.bzrrules``.
524
(Ian Clatworthy)
525
526
* ``bzr serve --directory=/`` now correctly allows the whole
527
filesystem to be accessed on Windows, not just the root of the drive
528
that Python is running from.
529
(Adrian Wilkins, #240910)
530
531
* Deleting directories by hand before running ``bzr rm`` will not
532
cause subsequent errors in ``bzr st`` and ``bzr commit``.
533
(Robert Collins, #150438)
534
535
* Fix a test case that was failing if encoding wasn't UTF-8.
536
(John Arbash Meinel, #247585)
537
538
* Fix "no buffer space available" error when branching with the new
539
smart server protocol to or from Windows.
540
(Andrew Bennetts, #246180)
541
542
* Fixed problem in branching from smart server.
543
(#249256, Michael Hudson, Martin Pool)
544
545
* Handle a file turning in to a directory in TreeTransform.
546
(James Westby, #248448)
547
548
API CHANGES:
549
550
* ``MutableTree.commit`` has an extra optional keywork parameter
551
``exclude`` that will be unconditionally supplied by the command
552
line UI - plugins that add tree formats may need an update.
553
(Robert Collins)
554
555
* The API minimum version for plugin compatibility has been raised to
556
1.6 - there are significant changes throughout the code base.
557
(Robert Collins)
558
559
* The generic fetch code now uses three attributes on Repository objects
560
to control fetch. The streams requested are controlled via :
561
``_fetch_order`` and ``_fetch_uses_deltas``. Setting these
562
appropriately allows different repository implementations to recieve
563
data in their optimial form. If the ``_fetch_reconcile`` is set then
564
a reconcile operation is triggered at the end of the fetch.
565
(Robert Collins)
566
567
* The ``put_on_disk`` and ``get_tar_item`` methods in
568
``InventoryEntry`` were deprecated. (Ian Clatworthy)
569
570
* ``Repository.is_shared`` doesn't take a read lock. It didn't
571
need one in the first place (nobody cached the value, and
572
``RemoteRepository`` wasn't taking one either). This saves a round
573
trip when probing Pack repositories, as they read the ``pack-names``
574
file when locked. And during probe, locking the repo isn't very
575
useful. (John Arbash Meinel)
576
577
INTERNALS:
578
579
* ``bzrlib.branchbuilder.BranchBuilder`` is now much more capable of
580
putting together a real history without having to create a full
581
WorkingTree. It is recommended that tests that are not directly
582
testing the WorkingTree use BranchBuilder instead. See
583
``BranchBuilder.build_snapshot`` or
584
``TestCaseWithMemoryTree.make_branch_builder``. (John Arbash Meinel)
585
586
* ``bzrlib.builtins.internal_tree_files`` broken into two giving a new
587
helper ``safe_relpath_files`` - used by the new ``exclude``
588
parameter to commit. (Robert Collins)
589
590
* Make it easier to introduce new WorkingTree formats.
591
(Ian Clatworthy)
592
593
* The code for exporting trees was refactored not to use the
594
deprecated ``InventoryEntry`` methods. (Ian Clatworthy)
595
596
* RuleSearchers return () instead of [] now when there are no matches.
597
(Ian Clatworthy)

bzr 1.6beta3 2008-07-17
601
-----------------------
602
603
This release adds a new 'stacked branches' feature allowing branches to
604
share storage without being in the same repository or on the same machine.
605
(See the user guide for more details.) It also adds a new hook, improved
606
weaves, aliases for related locations, faster bzr+ssh push, and several
607
bug fixes.
608
609
FEATURES:
610
611
* New ``pre_change_branch_tip`` hook that is called before the
612
branch tip is moved, while the branch is write-locked. See the User
613
Reference for signature details. (Andrew Bennetts)
614
615
* Rule-based preferences can now be defined for selected files in
616
selected branches, allowing commands and plugins to provide
617
custom behaviour for files matching defined patterns.
618
See ``Rule-based preferences`` (part of ``Configuring Bazaar``)
619
in the User Guide and ``bzr help rules`` for more information.
620
(Ian Clatworthy)
621
622
* Sites may suggest a branch to stack new branches on. (Aaron Bentley)
623
624
* Stacked branches are now supported. See ``bzr help branch`` and
625
``bzr help push``. Branches must be in the ``development1`` format
626
to stack, though the stacked-on branch can be of any format.
627
(Robert Collins)
628
629
IMPROVEMENTS:
630
631
* ``bzr export --format=tgz --root=NAME -`` to export a gzipped tarball
632
to stdout; also ``tar`` and ``tbz2``.
633
(Martin Pool)
634
635
* ``bzr (re)merge --weave`` will now use a standard Weave algorithm,
636
rather than the annotation-based merge it was using. It does so by
637
building up a Weave of the important texts, without needing to build
638
the full ancestry. (John Arbash Meinel, #238895)
639
640
* ``bzr send`` documents and better supports ``emacsclient`` (proper
641
escaping of mail headers and handling of the MUA Mew).
642
(Christophe Troestler)
643
644
* Remembered locations can be specified by aliases, e.g. :parent, :public,
645
:submit. (Aaron Bentley)
646
647
* The smart protocol now has improved support for setting branches'
648
revision info directly. This makes operations like push
649
faster. The new request method name is
650
``Branch.set_last_revision_ex``. (Andrew Bennetts)
651
652
BUG FIXES:
653
654
* Bazaar is now able to be a client to the web server of IIS 6 and 7.
655
The broken implementations of RFC822 in Python and RFC2046 in IIS
656
combined with boundary-line checking in Bazaar previously made this
657
impossible. (NB, IIS 5 does not suffer from this problem).
658
(Adrian Wilkins, #247585)
659
660
* ``bzr log --long`` with a ghost in your mainline now handles that
661
ghost properly. (John Arbash Meinel, #243536)
662
663
* ``check`` handles the split-up .bzr layout correctly, so no longer
664
requires a branch to be present.
665
(Daniel Watkins, #64783)
666
667
* Clearer message about how to set the PYTHONPATH if bzrlib can't be
668
loaded.
669
(Martin Pool, #205230)
670
671
* Errors about missing libraries are now shown without a traceback,
672
and with a suggestion to install the library. The full traceback is
673
still in ``.bzr.log`` and can be shown with ``-Derror``.
674
(Martin Pool, #240161)
675
676
* Fetch from a stacked branch copies all required data.
677
(Aaron Bentley, #248506)
678
679
* Handle urls such as ftp://user@host.com@www.host.com where the user
680
name contains an @.
681
(Neil Martinsen-Burrell, #228058)
682
683
* ``needs_read_lock`` and ``needs_write_lock`` now suppress an error during
684
``unlock`` if there was an error in the original function. This helps
685
most when there is a failure with a smart server action, since often the
686
connection closes and we cannot unlock.
687
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel, #125784)
688
689
* Obsolete hidden command ``bzr fetch`` removed.
690
(Martin Pool, #172870)
691
692
* Raise the correct exception when doing ``-rbefore:0`` or ``-c0``.
693
(John Arbash Meinel, #239933)
694
695
* You can now compare file revisions in Windows diff programs from
696
Cygwin Bazaar.
697
(Matt McClure, #209281)
698
699
* revision_history now tolerates mainline ghosts for Branch format 6.
700
(Aaron Bentley, #235055)
701
702
* Set locale from environment for third party libs.
703
(Martin von Gagern, #128496)
704
705
DOCUMENTATION:
706
707
* Added *Using stacked branches* to the User Guide.
708
(Ian Clatworthy)
709
710
* Updated developer documentation.
711
(Martin Pool)
712
713
TESTING:
714
715
* ``-Dmemory`` will cause /proc/PID/status to be catted before bzr
716
exits, allowing low-key analysis of peak memory use. (Robert Collins)
717
718
* ``TestCaseWithTransport.make_branch_and_tree`` tries harder to return
719
a tree with a ``branch`` attribute of the right format. This was
720
preventing some ``RemoteBranch`` tests from actually running with
721
``RemoteBranch`` instances. (Andrew Bennetts)
722
723
API CHANGES:
724
725
* Removed ``Repository.text_store``, ``control_store``, etc. Instead,
726
there are new attributes ``texts, inventories, revisions,
727
signatures``, each of which is a ``VersionedFiles``. See the
728
Repository docstring for more details.
729
(Robert Collins)
730
731
* ``Branch.pull`` now accepts an ``_override_hook_target`` optional
732
parameter. If you have a subclass of ``Branch`` that overrides
733
``pull`` then you should add this parameter. (Andrew Bennetts)
734
735
* ``bzrlib.check.check()`` has been deprecated in favour of the more
736
aptly-named ``bzrlib.check.check_branch()``.
737
(Daniel Watkins)
738
739
* ``Tree.print_file`` and ``Repository.print_file`` are deprecated.
740
These methods are bad APIs because they write directly to sys.stdout.
741
bzrlib does not use them internally, and there are no direct tests
742
for them. (Alexander Belchenko)
743
744
INTERNALS:
745
746
* ``cat`` command no longer uses ``Tree.print_file()`` internally.
747
(Alexander Belchenko)
748
749
* New class method ``BzrDir.open_containing_tree_branch_or_repository``
750
which eases the discovery of the tree, the branch and the repository
751
containing a given location.
752
(Daniel Watkins)
753
754
* New ``versionedfile.KeyMapper`` interface to abstract out the access to
755
underlying .knit/.kndx etc files in repositories with partitioned
756
storage. (Robert Collins)
757
758
* Obsolete developer-use command ``weave-join`` has been removed.
759
(Robert Collins)
760
761
* ``RemoteToOtherFetcher`` and ``get_data_stream_for_search`` removed,
762
to support new ``VersionedFiles`` layering.
763
(Robert Collins)
764
765
766
bzr 1.6beta2 2008-06-10
767
-----------------------
768
769
This release contains further progress towards our 1.6 goals of shallow
770
repositories, and contains a fix for some user-affecting bugs in the
771
repository layer. Building working trees during checkout and branch is
772
now faster.
773
774
BUG FIXES:
775
776
* Avoid KnitCorrupt error extracting inventories from some repositories.
777
(The data is not corrupt; an internal check is detecting a problem
778
reading from the repository.)
779
(Martin Pool, Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, #234748)
780
781
* ``bzr status`` was breaking if you merged the same revision twice.
782
(John Arbash Meinel, #235407)
783
784
* Fix infinite loop consuming 100% CPU when a connection is lost while
785
reading a response body via the smart protocol v1 or v2.
786
(Andrew Bennetts)
787
788
* Inserting a bundle which changes the contents of a file with no trailing
789
end of line, causing a knit snapshot in a 'knits' repository will no longer
790
cause KnitCorrupt. (Robert Collins)
791
792
* ``RemoteBranch.pull`` needs to return the ``self._real_branch``'s
793
pull result. It was instead just returning None, which breaks ``bzr
794
pull``. (John Arbash Meinel, #238149)
795
796
* Sanitize branch nick before using it as an attachment filename in
797
``bzr send``. (Lukáš Lalinský, #210218)
798
799
* Squash ``inv_entry.symlink_target`` to a plain string when
800
generating DirState details. This prevents from getting a
801
``UnicodeError`` when you have symlinks and non-ascii filenames.
802
(John Arbash Meinel, #135320)
803
804
IMPROVEMENTS:
805
806
* Added the 'alias' command to set/unset and display aliases. (Tim Penhey)
807
808
* ``added``, ``modified``, and ``unknowns`` behaviour made consistent (all three
809
now quote paths where required). Added ``--null`` option to ``added`` and
810
``modified`` (for null-separated unknowns, use ``ls --unknown --null``)
811
(Adrian Wilkins)
812
813
* Faster branching (1.09x) and lightweight checkouts (1.06x) on large trees.
814
(Ian Clatworthy, Aaron Bentley)
815
816
DOCUMENTATION:
817
818
* Added *Bazaar Zen* section to the User Guide. (Ian Clatworthy)
819
820
TESTING:
821
822
* Fix the test HTTPServer to be isolated from chdir calls made while it is
823
running, allowing it to be used in blackbox tests. (Robert Collins)
824
825
API CHANGES:
826
827
* ``WorkingTree.set_parent_(ids/trees)`` will now filter out revisions
828
which are in the ancestry of other revisions. So if you merge the same
829
tree twice, or merge an ancestor of an existing merge, it will only
830
record the newest. (If you merge a descendent, it will replace its
831
ancestor). (John Arbash Meinel, #235407)
832
833
* ``RepositoryPolicy.__init__`` now requires stack_on and stack_on_pwd,
834
through the derived classes do not. (Aaron Bentley)
835
836
INTERNALS:
837
838
* ``bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDir.sprout`` now accepts ``stacked`` to control
839
creating stacked branches. (Robert Collins)
840
841
* Knit record serialisation is now stricter on what it will accept, to
842
guard against potential internal bugs, or broken input. (Robert Collins)
843
844
845
bzr 1.6beta1 2008-06-02
846
-----------------------
847
848
849
Commands that work on the revision history such as push, pull, missing,
850
uncommit and log are now substantially faster. This release adds a
851
translation of some of the user documentation into Spanish. (Contributions of
852
other translations would be very welcome.) Bazaar 1.6beta1 adds a new network
853
protocol which is used by default and which allows for more efficient transfers
854
and future extensions.
855
856
857
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
858
859
* There is a new version of the network protocol used for bzr://, bzr+ssh://
860
and bzr+http:// connections. This will allow more efficient requests and
861
responses, and more graceful fallback when a server is too old to
862
recognise a request from a more recent client. Bazaar 1.6 will
863
interoperate with 0.16 and later versions, but servers should be upgraded
864
when possible. Bazaar 1.6 no longer interoperates with 0.15 and earlier via
865
these protocols. Use alternatives like SFTP or upgrade those servers.
866
(Andrew Bennetts, #83935)
867
868
CHANGES:
869
870
* Deprecation warnings will not be suppressed when running ``bzr selftest``
871
so that developers can see if their code is using deprecated functions.
872
(John Arbash Meinel)
873
874
FEATURES:
875
876
* Adding ``-Derror`` will now display a traceback when a plugin fails to
877
load. (James Westby)
878
879
IMPROVEMENTS:
880
881
* ``bzr branch/push/pull -r XXX`` now have a helper function for finding
882
the revno of the new revision (``Graph.find_distance_to_null``). This
883
should make something like ``bzr branch -r -100`` in a shared, no-trees
884
repository much snappier. (John Arbash Meinel)
885
886
* ``bzr log --short -r X..Y`` no longer needs to access the full revision
887
history. This makes it noticeably faster when logging the last few
888
revisions. (John Arbash Meinel)
889
890
* ``bzr ls`` now accepts ``-V`` as an alias for ``--versioned``.
891
(Jerad Cramp, #165086)
892
893
* ``bzr missing`` uses the new ``Graph.find_unique_ancestors`` and
894
``Graph.find_differences`` to determine missing revisions without having
895
to search the whole ancestry. (John Arbash Meinel, #174625)
896
897
* ``bzr uncommit`` now uses partial history access, rather than always
898
extracting the full revision history for a branch. This makes it
899
resolve the appropriate revisions much faster (in testing it drops
900
uncommit from 1.5s => 0.4s). It also means ``bzr log --short`` is one
901
step closer to not using full revision history.
902
(John Arbash Meinel, #172649)
903
904
BUGFIXES:
905
906
* ``bzr merge --lca`` should handle when two revisions have no common
907
ancestor other than NULL_REVISION. (John Arbash Meinel, #235715)
908
909
* ``bzr status`` was breaking if you merged the same revision twice.
910
(John Arbash Meinel, #235407)
911
912
* ``bzr push`` with both ``--overwrite`` and ``-r NNN`` options no longer
913
fails. (Andrew Bennetts, #234229)
914
915
* Correctly track the base URL of a smart medium when using bzr+http://
916
URLs, which was causing spurious "No repository present" errors with
917
branches in shared repositories accessed over bzr+http.
918
(Andrew Bennetts, #230550)
919
920
* Define ``_remote_is_at_least_1_2`` on ``SmartClientMedium`` so that all
921
implementations have the attribute. Fixes 'PyCurlTransport' object has no
922
attribute '_remote_is_at_least_1_2' attribute errors.
923
(Andrew Bennetts, #220806)
924
925
* Failure to delete an obsolete pack file should just give a warning
926
message, not a fatal error. It may for example fail if the file is still
927
in use by another process.
928
(Martin Pool)
929
930
* Fix MemoryError during large fetches over HTTP by limiting the amount of
931
data we try to read per ``recv`` call. The problem was observed with
932
Windows and a proxy, but might affect other environments as well.
933
(Eric Holmberg, #215426)
934
935
* Handle old merge directives correctly in Merger.from_mergeable. Stricter
936
get_parent_map requirements exposed a latent bug here. (Aaron Bentley)
937
938
* Issue a warning and ignore passwords declared in authentication.conf when
939
used for an ssh scheme (sftp or bzr+ssh).
940
(Vincent Ladeuil, #203186)
941
942
* Make both http implementations raise appropriate exceptions on 403
943
Forbidden when POSTing smart requests.
944
(Vincent Ladeuil, #230223)
945
946
* Properly *title* header names in http requests instead of capitalizing
947
them.
948
(Vincent Ladeuil, #229076)
949
950
* The "Unable to obtain lock" error message now also suggests using
951
``bzr break-lock`` to fix it. (Martin Albisetti, #139202)
952
953
* Treat an encoding of '' as ascii; this can happen when bzr is run
954
under vim on Mac OS X.
955
(Neil Martinsen-Burrell)
956
957
* ``VersionedFile.make_mpdiffs()`` was raising an exception that wasn't in
958
scope. (Daniel Fischer #235687)
959
960
DOCUMENTATION:
961
962
* Added directory structure and started translation of docs in spanish.
963
(Martin Albisetti, Lucio Albenga)
964
965
* Incorporate feedback from Jelmer Vernooij and Neil Martinsen-Burrell
966
on the plugin and integration chapters of the User Guide.
967
(Ian Clatworthy)
968
969
* More Bazaar developer documentation about packaging and release process,
970
and about use of Python reprs.
971
(Martin Pool, Martin Albisetti)
972
973
* Updated Tortise strategy document. (Mark Hammond)
974
975
TESTING:
976
977
* ``bzrlib.tests.adapt_tests`` was broken and unused - it has been fixed.
978
(Robert Collins)
979
980
* Fix the test HTTPServer to be isolated from chdir calls made while it is
981
running, allowing it to be used in blackbox tests. (Robert Collins)
982
983
* New helper function for splitting test suites
984
``split_suite_by_condition``. (Robert Collins)
985
986
INTERNALS:
987
988
* ``Branch.missing_revisions`` has been deprecated. Similar functionality
989
can be obtained using ``bzrlib.missing.find_unmerged``. The api was
990
fairly broken, and the function was unused, so we are getting rid of it.
991
(John Arbash Meinel)
992
993
API CHANGES:
994
995
* ``Branch.abspath`` is deprecated; use the Tree or Transport
996
instead. (Martin Pool)
997
998
* ``Branch.update_revisions`` now takes an optional ``Graph``
999
object. This can be used by ``update_revisions`` when it is
1000
checking ancestry, and allows callers to prefer request to go to a
1001
local branch. (John Arbash Meinel)
1002
1003
* Branch, Repository, Tree and BzrDir should expose a Transport as an
1004
attribute if they have one, rather than having it indirectly accessible
1005
as ``.control_files._transport``. This doesn't add a requirement
1006
to support a Transport in cases where it was not needed before;
1007
it just simplifies the way it is reached. (Martin Pool)
1008
1009
* ``bzr missing --mine-only`` will return status code 0 if you have no
1010
new revisions, but the remote does. Similarly for ``--theirs-only``.
1011
The new code only checks one side, so it doesn't know if the other
1012
side has changes. This seems more accurate with the request anyway.
1013
It also changes the output to print '[This|Other] branch is up to
1014
date.' rather than displaying nothing. (John Arbash Meinel)
1015
1016
* ``LockableFiles.put_utf8``, ``put_bytes`` and ``controlfilename``
1017
are now deprecated in favor of using Transport operations.
1018
(Martin Pool)
1019
1020
* Many methods on ``VersionedFile``, ``Repository`` and in
1021
``bzrlib.revision`` deprecated before bzrlib 1.5 have been removed.
1022
(Robert Collins)
1023
1024
* ``RevisionSpec.wants_revision_history`` can be set to False for a given
1025
``RevisionSpec``. This will disable the existing behavior of passing in
1026
the full revision history to ``self._match_on``. Useful for specs that
1027
don't actually need access to the full history. (John Arbash Meinel)
1028
1029
* The constructors of ``SmartClientMedium`` and its subclasses now require a
1030
``base`` parameter. ``SmartClientMedium`` implementations now also need
1031
to provide a ``remote_path_from_transport`` method. (Andrew Bennetts)
1032
1033
* The default permissions for creating new files and directories
1034
should now be obtained from ``BzrDir._get_file_mode()`` and
1035
``_get_dir_mode()``, rather than from LockableFiles. The ``_set_file_mode``
1036
and ``_set_dir_mode`` variables on LockableFiles which were advertised
1037
as a way for plugins to control this are no longer consulted.
1038
(Martin Pool)
1039
1040
* ``VersionedFile.join`` is deprecated. This method required local
1041
instances of both versioned file objects and was thus hostile to being
1042
used for streaming from a smart server. The new get_record_stream and
1043
insert_record_stream are meant to efficiently replace this method.
1044
(Robert Collins)
1045
1046
* ``WorkingTree.set_parent_(ids/trees)`` will now filter out revisions
1047
which are in the ancestry of other revisions. So if you merge the same
1048
tree twice, or merge an ancestor of an existing merge, it will only
1049
record the newest. (If you merge a descendent, it will replace its
1050
ancestor). (John Arbash Meinel, #235407)
1051
1052
* ``WorkingTreeFormat2.stub_initialize_remote`` is now private.

------------------
1058
1059
This release of Bazaar includes several updates to the documentation, and fixes
1060
to prepare for making rich root support the default format. Many bugs have been
1061
squashed, including fixes to log, bzr+ssh inter-operation with older servers.
1062
1063
CHANGES:
1064
1065
* Suppress deprecation warnings when bzrlib is a 'final' release. This way
1066
users of packaged software won't be bothered with DeprecationWarnings,
1067
but developers and testers will still see them. (John Arbash Meinel)
1068
1069
DOCUMENTATION:
1070
1071
* Incorporate feedback from Jelmer Vernooij and Neil Martinsen-Burrell

1079
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1080
1081
CHANGES:
1082
1083
* Broader support of GNU Emacs mail clients. Set
1084
``mail_client=emacsclient`` in your bazaar.conf and ``send`` will pop the
1085
bundle in a mail buffer according to the value of ``mail-user-agent``
1086
variable. (Xavier Maillard)
1087
1088
FEATURES:
1089
1090
IMPROVEMENTS:
1091
1092
* Diff now handles revision specs like "branch:" and "submit:" more
1093
efficiently. (Aaron Bentley, #202928)
1094
1095
* More friendly error given when attempt to start the smart server
1096
on an address already in use. (Andrea Corbellini, #200575)
1097
1098
* Pull completes much faster when there is nothing to pull.
1099
(Aaron Bentley)
1100
1101
BUGFIXES:
1102
1103
* Authentication.conf can define sections without password.
1104
(Vincent Ladeuil, #199440)
1105
1106
* Avoid muttering every time a child update does not cause a progress bar
1107
update. (John Arbash Meinel, #213771)
1108
1109
* ``Branch.reconcile()`` is now implemented. This allows ``bzr reconcile``
1110
to fix when a Branch has a non-canonical mainline history. ``bzr check``
1111
also detects this condition. (John Arbash Meinel, #177855)
1112
1113
* ``bzr log -r ..X bzr://`` was failing, because it was getting a request
1114
for ``revision_id=None`` which was not a string.
1115
(John Arbash Meinel, #211661)
1116
1117
* ``bzr commit`` now works with Microsoft's FTP service.
1118
(Andreas Deininger)
1119
1120
* Catch definitions outside sections in authentication.conf.
1121
(Vincent Ladeuil, #217650)
1122
1123
* Conversion from non-rich-root to rich-root(-pack) updates inventory
1124
sha1s, even when bundles are used. (Aaron Bentley, #181391)
1125
1126
* Conversion from non-rich-root to rich-root(-pack) works correctly even
1127
though search keys are not topologically sorted. (Aaron Bentley)
1128
1129
* Conversion from non-rich-root to rich-root(-pack) works even when a
1130
parent revision has a different root id. (Aaron Bentley, #177874)
1131
1132
* Disable strace testing until strace is fixed (see bug #103133) and emit a
1133
warning when selftest ends to remind us of leaking tests.
1134
(Vincent Ladeuil, #226769)
1135
1136
* Fetching all revisions from a repository does not cause pack collisions.
1137
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley, #212908)
1138
1139
* Fix error about "attempt to add line-delta in non-delta knit".
1140
(Andrew Bennetts, #217701)
1141
1142
* Pushing a branch in "dirstate" format (Branch5) over bzr+ssh would break
1143
if the remote server was < version 1.2. This was due to a bug in the
1144
RemoteRepository.get_parent_map() fallback code.
1145
(John Arbash Meinel, #214894)
1146
1147
* Remove leftover code in ``bzr_branch`` that inappropriately creates
1148
a ``branch-name`` file in the branch control directory.
1149
(Martin Pool)
1150
1151
* Set SO_REUSEADDR on server sockets of ``bzr serve`` to avoid problems
1152
rebinding the socket when starting the server a second time.
1153
(John Arbash Meinel, Martin Pool, #164288)
1154
1155
* Severe performance degradation in fetching from knit repositories to
1156
knits and packs due to parsing the entire revisions.kndx on every graph
1157
walk iteration fixed by using the Repository.get_graph API. There was
1158
another regression in knit => knit fetching which re-read the index for
1159
every revision each side had in common.
1160
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
1161
1162
* When logging the changes to a particular file, there was a bug if there
1163
were ghosts in the revision ancestry. (John Arbash Meinel, #209948)
1164
1165
* xs4all's ftp server returns a temporary error when trying to list an
1166
empty directory, rather than returning an empty list. Adding a
1167
workaround so that we don't get spurious failures.
1168
(John Arbash Meinel, #215522)
1169
1170
DOCUMENTATION:
1171
1172
* Expanded the User Guide to include new chapters on popular plugins and
1173
integrating Bazaar into your environment. The *Best practices* chapter
1174
was renamed to *Miscellaneous topics* as suggested by community
1175
feedback as well. (Ian Clatworthy)
1176
1177
* Document outlining strategies for TortoiseBzr. (Mark Hammond)
1178
1179
* Improved the documentation on hooks. (Ian Clatworthy)
1180
1181
* Update authentication docs regarding ssh agents.
1182
(Vincent Ladeuil, #183705)
1183
1184
TESTING:
1185
1186
* Add ``thread_name_suffix`` parameter to SmartTCPServer_for_testing, to
1187
make it easy to identify which test spawned a thread with an unhandled
1188
exception. (Andrew Bennetts)
1189
1190
* New ``--debugflag``/``-E`` option to ``bzr selftest`` for setting
1191
options for debugging tests, these are complementary to the the -D
1192
options. The ``-Dselftest_debug`` global option has been replaced by the
1193
``-E=allow_debug`` option for selftest. (Andrew Bennetts)
1194
1195
* Parameterised test ids are preserved correctly to aid diagnosis of test
1196
failures. (Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
1197
1198
* selftest now accepts --starting-with <id> to load only the tests whose id
1199
starts with the one specified. This greatly speeds up running the test
1200
suite on a limited set of tests and can be used to run the tests for a
1201
single module, a single class or even a single test. (Vincent Ladeuil)
1202
1203
* The test suite modules have been modified to define load_tests() instead
1204
of test_suite(). That speeds up selective loading (via --load-list)
1205
significantly and provides many examples on how to migrate (grep for
1206
load_tests). (Vincent Ladeuil)
1207
1208
INTERNALS:
1209
1210
* ``Hooks.install_hook`` is now deprecated in favour of
1211
``Hooks.install_named_hook`` which adds a required ``name`` parameter, to
1212
avoid having to call ``Hooks.name_hook``. (Daniel Watkins)
1213
1214
* Implement xml8 serializer. (Aaron Bentley)
1215
1216
* New form ``@deprecated_method(deprecated_in(1, 5, 0))`` for making
1217
deprecation wrappers. (Martin Pool)
1218
1219
* ``Repository.revision_parents`` is now deprecated in favour of
1220
``Repository.get_parent_map([revid])[revid]``. (Jelmer Vernooij)
1221
1222
* The Python ``assert`` statement is no longer used in Bazaar source, and
1223
a test checks this. (Martin Pool)
1224
1225
API CHANGES:
1226
1227
* ``bzrlib.status.show_pending_merges`` requires the repository to be
1228
locked by the caller. Callers should have been doing it anyway, but it
1229
will now raise an exception if they do not. (John Arbash Meinel)
1230
1231
* Repository.get_data_stream, Repository.get_data_stream_for_search(),
1232
Repository.get_deltas_for_revsions(), Repository.revision_trees(),
1233
Repository.item_keys_introduced_by() no longer take read locks.
1234
(Aaron Bentley)
1235
1236
* ``LockableFiles.get_utf8`` and ``.get`` are deprecated, as a start
1237
towards removing LockableFiles and ``.control_files`` entirely.
1238
(Martin Pool)
1239
1240
* Methods deprecated prior to 1.1 have been removed.

1245
------------------
1246
1247
This release of Bazaar includes handy improvements to the speed of log and
1248
status, new options for several commands, improved documentation, and better
1249
hooks, including initial code for server-side hooks. A number of bugs have
1250
been fixed, particularly in interoperability between different formats or
1251
different releases of Bazaar over there network. There's been substantial
1252
internal work in both the repository and network code to enable new features
1253
and faster performance.
1254
1255
BUG FIXES:
1256
1257
* Pushing a branch in "dirstate" format (Branch5) over bzr+ssh would break
1258
if the remote server was < version 1.2. This was due to a bug in the
1259
RemoteRepository.get_parent_map() fallback code.

1265
1266
BUG FIXES:
1267
1268
* ``bzr log -r ..X bzr://`` was failing, because it was getting a request
1269
for ``revision_id=None`` which was not a string.
1270
(John Arbash Meinel, #211661)
1271
1272
* Fixed a bug in handling ghost revisions when logging changes in a
1273
particular file. (John Arbash Meinel, #209948)
1274
1275
* Fix error about "attempt to add line-delta in non-delta knit".
1276
(Andrew Bennetts, #205156)
1277
1278
* Fixed performance degradation in fetching from knit repositories to
1279
knits and packs due to parsing the entire revisions.kndx on every graph

1289
CHANGES:
1290
1291
* bzr main script cannot be imported (Benjamin Peterson)
1292
1293
* On Linux bzr additionally looks for plugins in arch-independent site
1294
directory. (Toshio Kuratomi)
1295
1296
* The ``set_rh`` branch hook is now deprecated. Please migrate
1297
any plugins using this hook to use an alternative, e.g.
1298
``post_change_branch_tip``. (Ian Clatworthy)
1299
1300
* When a plugin cannot be loaded as the file path is not a valid
1301
python module name bzr will now strip a ``bzr_`` prefix from the
1302
front of the suggested name, as many plugins (e.g. bzr-svn)
1303
want to be installed without this prefix. It is a common mistake
1304
to have a folder named "bzr-svn" for that plugin, especially
1305
as this is what bzr branch lp:bzr-svn will give you. (James Westby,
1306
Andrew Cowie)
1307
1308
* UniqueIntegerBugTracker now appends bug-ids instead of joining
1309
them to the base URL. Plugins that register bug trackers may
1310
need a trailing / added to the base URL if one is not already there.
1311
(James Wesby, Andrew Cowie)
1312
1313
FEATURES:
1314
1315
* Added start_commit hook for mutable trees. (Jelmer Vernooij, #186422)
1316
1317
* ``status`` now accepts ``--no-pending`` to show the status without
1318
listing pending merges, which speeds up the command a lot on large
1319
histories. (James Westby, #202830)
1320
1321
* New ``post_change_branch_tip`` hook that is called after the
1322
branch tip is moved but while the branch is still write-locked.
1323
See the User Reference for signature details.
1324
(Ian Clatworthy, James Henstridge)
1325
1326
* Reconfigure can convert a branch to be standalone or to use a shared
1327
repository. (Aaron Bentley)
1328
1329
IMPROVEMENTS:
1330
1331
* The smart protocol now has support for setting branches' revision info
1332
directly. This should make operations like push slightly faster, and is a
1333
step towards server-side hooks. The new request method name is
1334
``Branch.set_last_revision_info``. (Andrew Bennetts)
1335
1336
* ``bzr commit --fixes`` now recognises "gnome" as a tag by default.
1337
(James Westby, Andrew Cowie)
1338
1339
* ``bzr switch`` will attempt to find branches to switch to relative to the
1340
current branch. E.g. ``bzr switch branchname`` will look for
1341
``current_branch/../branchname``. (Robert Collins, Jelmer Vernooij,
1342
Wouter van Heyst)
1343
1344
* Diff is now more specific about execute-bit changes it describes
1345
(Chad Miller)
1346
1347
* Fetching data over HTTP is a bit faster when urllib is used. This is done
1348
by forcing it to recv 64k at a time when reading lines in HTTP headers,
1349
rather than just 1 byte at a time. (Andrew Bennetts)
1350
1351
* Log --short and --line are much faster when -r is not specified.
1352
(Aaron Bentley)
1353
1354
* Merge is faster. We no longer check a file's existence unnecessarily
1355
when merging the execute bit. (Aaron Bentley)
1356
1357
* ``bzr status`` on an explicit list of files no longer shows pending
1358
merges, making it much faster on large trees. (John Arbash Meinel)
1359
1360
* The launchpad directory service now warns the user if they have not set
1361
their launchpad login and are trying to resolve a URL using it, just
1362
in case they want to do a write operation with it. (James Westby)
1363
1364
* The smart protocol client is slightly faster, because it now only queries
1365
the server for the protocol version once per connection. Also, the HTTP
1366
transport will now automatically probe for and use a smart server if
1367
one is present. You can use the new ``nosmart+`` transport decorator
1368
to get the old behaviour. (Andrew Bennetts)
1369
1370
* The ``version`` command takes a ``--short`` option to print just the
1371
version number, for easier use in scripts. (Martin Pool)
1372
1373
* Various operations with revision specs and commands that calculate
1374
revnos and revision ids are faster. (John A. Meinel, Aaron Bentley)
1375
1376
BUGFIXES:
1377
1378
* Add ``root_client_path`` parameter to SmartWSGIApp and
1379
SmartServerRequest. This makes it possible to publish filesystem
1380
locations that don't exactly match URL paths. SmartServerRequest
1381
subclasses should use the new ``translate_client_path`` and
1382
``transport_from_client_path`` methods when dealing with paths received
1383
from a client to take this into account. (Andrew Bennetts, #124089)
1384
1385
* ``bzr mv a b`` can be now used also to rename previously renamed
1386
directories, not only files. (Lukáš Lalinský, #107967)
1387
1388
* ``bzr uncommit --local`` can now remove revisions from the local
1389
branch to be symmetric with ``bzr commit --local``.
1390
(John Arbash Meinel, #93412)
1391
1392
* Don't ask for a password if there is no real terminal.
1393
(Alexander Belchenko, #69851)
1394
1395
* Fix a bug causing a ValueError crash in ``parse_line_delta_iter`` when
1396
fetching revisions from a knit to pack repository or vice versa using
1397
bzr:// (including over http or ssh).
1398
(#208418, Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
1399
1400
* Fixed ``_get_line`` in ``bzrlib.smart.medium``, which was buggy. Also
1401
fixed ``_get_bytes`` in the same module to use the push back buffer.
1402
These bugs had no known impact in normal use, but were problematic for
1403
developers working on the code, and were likely to cause real bugs sooner
1404
or later. (Andrew Bennetts)
1405
1406
* Implement handling of basename parameter for DefaultMail. (James Westby)
1407
1408
* Incompatibility with Paramiko versions newer than 1.7.2 was fixed.
1409
(Andrew Bennetts, #213425)
1410
1411
* Launchpad locations (lp: URLs) can be pulled. (Aaron Bentley, #181945)
1412
1413
* Merges that add files to deleted root directories complete. They
1414
do create conflicts. (Aaron Bentley, #210092)
1415
1416
* vsftp's return ``550 RNFR command failed.`` supported.
1417

DOCUMENTATION:
1420
1421
* Improved documentation on send/merge relationship. (Peter Schuller)
1422
1423
* Minor fixes to the User Guide. (Matthew Fuller)
1424
1425
* Reduced the evangelism in the User Guide. (Ian Clatworthy)
1426
1427
* Added Integrating with Bazaar document for developers (Martin Albisetti)
1428
1429
API BREAKS:
1430
1431
* Attempting to pull data from a ghost aware repository (e.g. knits) into a
1432
non-ghost aware repository such as weaves will now fail if there are
1433
ghosts. (Robert Collins)
1434
1435
* ``KnitVersionedFile`` no longer accepts an ``access_mode`` parameter, and
1436
now requires the ``index`` and ``access_method`` parameters to be
1437
supplied. A compatible shim has been kept in the new function
1438
``knit.make_file_knit``. (Robert Collins)
1439
1440
* Log formatters must now provide log_revision instead of show and
1441
show_merge_revno methods. The latter had been deprecated since the 0.17
1442
release. (James Westby)
1443
1444
* ``LoopbackSFTP`` is now called ``SocketAsChannelAdapter``.
1445
(Andrew Bennetts)
1446
1447
* ``osutils.backup_file`` is removed. (Alexander Belchenko)
1448
1449
* ``Repository.get_revision_graph`` is deprecated, with no replacement
1450
method. The method was size(history) and not desirable. (Robert Collins)
1451
1452
* ``revision.revision_graph`` is deprecated, with no replacement function.
1453
The function was size(history) and not desirable. (Robert Collins)
1454
1455
* ``Transport.get_shared_medium`` is deprecated. Use
1456
``Transport.get_smart_medium`` instead. (Andrew Bennetts)
1457
1458
* ``VersionedFile`` factories now accept a get_scope parameter rather
1459
than using a call to ``transaction_finished``, allowing the removal of
1460
the fixed list of versioned files per repository. (Robert Collins)
1461
1462
* ``VersionedFile.annotate_iter`` is deprecated. While in principle this
1463
allowed lower memory use, all users of annotations wanted full file
1464
annotations, and there is no storage format suitable for incremental
1465
line-by-line annotation. (Robert Collins)
1466
1467
* ``VersionedFile.clone_text`` is deprecated. This performance optimisation
1468
is no longer used - reading the content of a file that is undergoing a
1469
file level merge to identical state on two branches is rare enough, and
1470
not expensive enough to special case. (Robert Collins)
1471
1472
* ``VersionedFile.clear_cache`` and ``enable_cache`` are deprecated.
1473
These methods added significant complexity to the ``VersionedFile``
1474
implementation, but were only used for optimising fetches from knits -
1475
which can be done from outside the knit layer, or via a caching
1476
decorator. As knits are not the default format, the complexity is no
1477
longer worth paying. (Robert Collins)
1478
1479
* ``VersionedFile.create_empty`` is removed. This method presupposed a
1480
sensible mapping to a transport for individual files, but pack backed
1481
versioned files have no such mapping. (Robert Collins)
1482
1483
* ``VersionedFile.get_graph`` is deprecated, with no replacement method.
1484
The method was size(history) and not desirable. (Robert Collins)
1485
1486
* ``VersionedFile.get_graph_with_ghosts`` is deprecated, with no
1487
replacement method. The method was size(history) and not desirable.
1488
(Robert Collins)
1489
1490
* ``VersionedFile.get_parents`` is deprecated, please use
1491
``VersionedFile.get_parent_map``. (Robert Collins)
1492
1493
* ``VersionedFile.get_sha1`` is deprecated, please use
1494
``VersionedFile.get_sha1s``. (Robert Collins)
1495
1496
* ``VersionedFile.has_ghost`` is now deprecated, as it is both expensive
1497
and unused outside of a single test. (Robert Collins)
1498
1499
* ``VersionedFile.iter_parents`` is now deprecated in favour of
1500
``get_parent_map`` which can be used to instantiate a Graph on a
1501
VersionedFile. (Robert Collins)
1502
1503
* ``VersionedFileStore`` no longer uses the transaction parameter given
1504
to most methods; amongst other things this means that the
1505
get_weave_or_empty method no longer guarantees errors on a missing weave
1506
in a readonly transaction, and no longer caches versioned file instances
1507
which reduces memory pressure (but requires more careful management by
1508
callers to preserve performance). (Robert Collins)
1509
1510
TESTING:
1511
1512
* New -Dselftest_debug flag disables clearing of the debug flags during
1513
tests. This is useful if you want to use e.g. -Dhpss to help debug a
1514
failing test. Be aware that using this feature is likely to cause
1515
spurious test failures if used with the full suite. (Andrew Bennetts)
1516
1517
* selftest --load-list now uses a new more agressive test loader that will
1518
avoid loading unneeded modules and building their tests. Plugins can use
1519
this new loader by defining a load_tests function instead of a test_suite
1520
function. (a forthcoming patch will provide many examples on how to
1521
implement this).
1522
(Vincent Ladeuil)
1523
1524
* selftest --load-list now does some sanity checks regarding duplicate test
1525
IDs and tests present in the list but not found in the actual test suite.
1526
(Vincent Ladeuil)
1527
1528
* Slightly more concise format for the selftest progress bar, so there's
1529
more space to show the test name. (Martin Pool) ::
1530
1531
[2500/10884, 1fail, 3miss in 1m29s] test_revisionnamespaces.TestRev
1532
1533
* The test suite takes much less memory to run, and is a bit faster. This
1534
is done by clearing most attributes of TestCases after running them, if
1535
they succeeded. (Andrew Bennetts)
1536
1537
INTERNALS:
1538
1539
* Added ``_build_client_protocol`` to ``_SmartClient``. (Andrew Bennetts)
1540
1541
* Added basic infrastructure for automatic plugin suggestion.
1542
(Martin Albisetti)
1543
1544
* If a ``LockableFiles`` object is not explicitly unlocked (for example
1545
because of a missing ``try/finally`` block, it will give a warning but
1546
not automatically unlock itself. (Previously they did.) This
1547
sometimes caused knock-on errors if for example the network connection
1548
had already failed, and should not be relied upon by code.
1549
(Martin Pool, #109520)
1550
1551
* ``make dist`` target to build a release tarball, and also
1552
``check-dist-tarball`` and ``dist-upload-escudero``. (Martin Pool)
1553
1554
* The ``read_response_tuple`` method of ``SmartClientRequestProtocol*``
1555
classes will now raise ``UnknownSmartMethod`` when appropriate, so that
1556
callers don't need to try distinguish unknown request errors from other
1557
errors. (Andrew Bennetts)
1558
1559
* ``set_make_working_trees`` is now implemented provided on all repository
1560
implementations (Aaron Bentley)
1561
1562
* ``VersionedFile`` now has a new method ``get_parent_map`` which, like
1563
``Graph.get_parent_map`` returns a dict of key:parents. (Robert Collins)

1584
------------------
1585
1586
Bazaar has become part of the GNU project <http://www.gnu.org>
1587
1588
Many operations that act on history, including ``log`` and ``annotate`` are now
1589
substantially faster. Several bugs have been fixed and several new options and
1590
features have been added.
1591
1592
TESTING:
1593
1594

NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1603
1604
* The backup directory created by ``upgrade`` is now called
1605
``backup.bzr``, not ``.bzr.backup``. (Martin Albisetti)
1606
1607
CHANGES:
1608
1609
* A new repository format 'development' has been added. This format will
1610
represent the latest 'in-progress' format that the bzr developers are
1611
interested in getting early-adopter testing and feedback on.
1612
``doc/developers/development-repo.txt`` has detailed information.
1613
(Robert Collins)
1614
1615
* BZR_LOG environment variable controls location of .bzr.log trace file.
1616
User can suppress writing messages to .bzr.log by using '/dev/null'
1617
filename (on Linux) or 'NUL' (on Windows). If BZR_LOG variable
1618
is not defined but BZR_HOME is defined then default location
1619
for .bzr.log trace file is ``$BZR_HOME/.bzr.log``.
1620
(Alexander Belchenko)
1621
1622
* ``launchpad`` builtin plugin now shipped as separate part in standalone
1623
bzr.exe, installed to ``C:\Program Files\Bazaar\plugins`` directory,
1624
and standalone installer allows user to skip installation of this plugin.
1625
(Alexander Belchenko)
1626
1627
* Restore auto-detection of plink.exe on Windows. (Dmitry Vasiliev)
1628
1629
* Version number is now shown as "1.2" or "1.2pr2", without zeroed or
1630
missing final fields. (Martin Pool)
1631
1632
FEATURES:
1633
1634
* ``branch`` and ``checkout`` can hard-link working tree files, which is
1635
faster and saves space. (Aaron Bentley)
1636
1637
* ``bzr send`` will now also look at the ``child_submit_to`` setting in
1638
the submit branch to determine the email address to send to.
1639
(Jelmer Vernooij)
1640
1641
IMPROVEMENTS:
1642
1643
* BzrBranch._lefthand_history is faster on pack repos. (Aaron Bentley)
1644
1645
* Branch6.generate_revision_history is faster. (Aaron Bentley)
1646
1647
* Directory services can now be registered, allowing special URLs to be
1648
dereferenced into real URLs. This is a generalization and cleanup of
1649
the lp: transport lookup. (Aaron Bentley)
1650
1651
* Merge directives that are automatically attached to emails have nicer
1652
filenames, based on branch-nick + revno. (Aaron Bentley)
1653
1654
* ``push`` has a ``--revision`` option, to specify what revision to push up
1655
to. (Daniel Watkins)
1656
1657
* Significantly reducing execution time and network traffic for trivial
1658
case of running ``bzr missing`` command for two identical branches.
1659
(Alexander Belchenko)
1660
1661
* Speed up operations that look at the revision graph (such as 'bzr log').
1662
``KnitPackRepositor.get_revision_graph`` uses ``Graph.iter_ancestry`` to
1663
extract the revision history. This allows filtering ghosts while
1664
stepping instead of needing to peek ahead. (John Arbash Meinel)
1665
1666
* The ``hooks`` command lists installed hooks, to assist in debugging.
1667
(Daniel Watkins)
1668
1669
* Updates to how ``annotate`` work. Should see a measurable improvement in
1670
performance and memory consumption for file with a lot of merges.
1671
Also, correctly handle when a line is introduced by both parents (it
1672
should be attributed to the first merge which notices this, and not
1673
to all subsequent merges.) (John Arbash Meinel)
1674
1675
BUGFIXES:
1676
1677
* Autopacking no longer holds the full set of inventory lines in
1678
memory while copying. For large repositories, this can amount to
1679
hundreds of MB of ram consumption.
1680
(Ian Clatworthy, John Arbash Meinel)
1681
1682
* Cherrypicking when using ``--format=merge3`` now explictly excludes
1683
BASE lines. (John Arbash Meinel, #151731)
1684
1685
* Disable plink's interactive prompt for password.
1686
(#107593, Dmitry Vasiliev)
1687
1688
* Encode command line arguments from unicode to user_encoding before
1689
invoking external mail client in `bzr send` command.
1690
(#139318, Alexander Belchenko)
1691
1692
* Fixed problem connecting to ``bzr+https://`` servers.
1693
(#198793, John Ferlito)
1694
1695
* Improved error reporting in the Launchpad plugin. (Daniel Watkins,
1696
#196618)
1697
1698
* Include quick-start-summary.svg file to python-based installer(s)
1699
for Windows. (#192924, Alexander Belchenko)
1700
1701
* lca merge now respects specified files. (Aaron Bentley)
1702
1703
* Make version-info --custom imply --all. (#195560, James Westby)
1704
1705
* ``merge --preview`` now works for merges that add or modify
1706
symlinks (James Henstridge)
1707
1708
* Redirecting the output from ``bzr merge`` (when the remembered
1709
location is used) now works. (John Arbash Meinel)
1710
1711
* setup.py script explicitly checks for Python version.
1712
(Jari Aalto, Alexander Belchenko, #200569)
1713
1714
* UnknownFormatErrors no longer refer to branches regardless of kind of
1715
unknown format. (Daniel Watkins, #173980)
1716
1717
* Upgrade bundled ConfigObj to version 4.5.2, which properly quotes #
1718
signs, among other small improvements. (Matt Nordhoff, #86838)
1719
1720
* Use correct indices when emitting LCA conflicts. This fixes IndexError
1721
errors. (Aaron Bentley, #196780)
1722
1723
DOCUMENTATION:
1724
1725
* Explained how to use ``version-info --custom`` in the User Guide.
1726
(Neil Martinsen-Burrell)
1727
1728
API BREAKS:
1729
1730
* Support for loading plugins from zip files and
1731
``bzrlib.plugin.load_from_zip()`` function are deprecated.
1732
(Alexander Belchenko)
1733
1734
TESTING:
1735
1736
* Added missing blackbox tests for ``modified`` (Adrian Wilkins)
1737
1738
* The branch interface tests were invalid for branches using rich-root
1739
repositories because the empty string is not a valid file-id.
1740
(Robert Collins)
1741
1742
INTERNALS:
1743
1744
* ``Graph.iter_ancestry`` returns the ancestry of revision ids. Similar to
1745
``Repository.get_revision_graph()`` except it includes ghosts and you can
1746
stop part-way through. (John Arbash Meinel)
1747
1748
* New module ``tools/package_mf.py`` provide custom module finder for
1749
python packages (improves standard python library's modulefinder.py)
1750
used by ``setup.py`` script while building standalone bzr.exe.
1751
(Alexander Belchenko)
1752
1753
* New remote method ``RemoteBzrDir.find_repositoryV2`` adding support for
1754
detecting external lookup support on remote repositories. This method is
1755
now attempted first when lookup up repositories, leading to an extra
1756
round trip on older bzr smart servers. (Robert Collins)
1757
1758
* Repository formats have a new supported-feature attribute
1759
``supports_external_lookups`` used to indicate repositories which support
1760
falling back to other repositories when they have partial data.
1761
(Robert Collins)
1762
1763
* ``Repository.get_revision_graph_with_ghosts`` and
1764
``bzrlib.revision.(common_ancestor,MultipleRevisionSources,common_graph)``
1765
have been deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel)
1766
1767
* ``Tree.iter_changes`` is now a public API, replacing the work-in-progress
1768
``Tree._iter_changes``. The api is now considered stable and ready for
1769
external users. (Aaron Bentley)
1770
1771
* The bzrdir format registry now accepts an ``alias`` keyword to
1772
register_metadir, used to indicate that a format name is an alias for
1773
some other format and thus should not be reported when describing the
1774
format. (Robert Collins)

NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
1789
1790
* Fetching via the smart protocol may need to reconnect once during a fetch
1791
if the remote server is running Bazaar 1.1 or earlier, because the client
1792
attempts to use more efficient requests that confuse older servers. You
1793
may be required to re-enter a password or passphrase when this happens.
1794
This won't happen if the server is upgraded to Bazaar 1.2.
1795
(Andrew Bennetts)
1796
1797
CHANGES:
1798
1799
* Fetching via bzr+ssh will no longer fill ghosts by default (this is
1800
consistent with pack-0.92 fetching over SFTP). (Robert Collins)
1801
1802
* Formatting of ``bzr plugins`` output is changed to be more human-
1803
friendly. Full path of plugins locations will be shown only with
1804
``--verbose`` command-line option. (Alexander Belchenko)
1805
1806
* ``merge`` now prefers to use the submit branch, but will fall back to
1807
parent branch. For many users, this has no effect. But some users who
1808
pull and merge on the same branch will notice a change. This change
1809
makes it easier to work on a branch on two different machines, pulling
1810
between the machines, while merging from the upstream.
1811
``merge --remember`` can now be used to set the submit_branch.
1812
(Aaron Bentley)
1813
1814
FEATURES:
1815
1816
* ``merge --preview`` produces a diff of the changes merge would make,
1817
but does not actually perform the merge. (Aaron Bentley)
1818
1819
* New smart method ``Repository.get_parent_map`` for getting revision
1820
parent data. This returns additional parent information topologically
1821
adjacent to the requested data to reduce round trip latency impacts.
1822
(Robert Collins)
1823
1824
* New smart method, ``Repository.stream_revisions_chunked``, for fetching
1825
revision data that streams revision data via a chunked encoding. This
1826
avoids buffering large amounts of revision data on the server and on the
1827
client, and sends less data to the server to request the revisions.
1828
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, #178353)
1829
1830
* The launchpad plugin now handles lp urls of the form
1831
``lp://staging/``, ``lp://demo/``, ``lp://dev/`` to use the appropriate
1832
launchpad instance to do the resolution of the branch identities.
1833
This is primarily of use to Launchpad developers, but can also
1834
be used by other users who want to try out Launchpad as
1835
a branch location without messing up their public Launchpad
1836
account. Branches that are pushed to the staging environment
1837
have an expected lifetime of one day. (Tim Penhey)
1838
1839
IMPROVEMENTS:
1840
1841
* Creating a new branch no longer tries to read the entire revision-history
1842
unnecessarily over smart server operations. (Robert Collins)
1843
1844
* Fetching between different repository formats with compatible models now
1845
takes advantage of the smart method to stream revisions. (Andrew Bennetts)
1846
1847
* The ``--coverage`` option is now global, rather specific to ``bzr
1848
selftest``. (Andrew Bennetts)
1849
1850
* The ``register-branch`` command will now use the public url of the branch
1851
containing the current directory, if one has been set and no explicit
1852
branch is provided. (Robert Collins)
1853
1854
* Tweak the ``reannotate`` code path to optimize the 2-parent case.
1855
Speeds up ``bzr annotate`` with a pack repository by approx 3:2.

BUGFIXES:
1859
1860
* Calculate remote path relative to the shared medium in _SmartClient. This
1861
is related to the problem in bug #124089. (Andrew Bennetts)
1862
1863
* Cleanly handle connection errors in smart protocol version two, the same
1864
way as they are handled by version one. (Andrew Bennetts)
1865
1866
* Clearer error when ``version-info --custom`` is used without
1867
``--template`` (Lukáš Lalinský)
1868
1869
* Don't raise UnavailableFeature during test setup when medusa is not
1870
available or tearDown is never called leading to nasty side effects.
1871
(#137823, Vincent Ladeuil)
1872
1873
* If a plugin's test suite cannot be loaded, for example because of a syntax
1874
error in the tests, then ``selftest`` fails, rather than just printing
1875
a warning. (Martin Pool, #189771)
1876
1877
* List possible values for BZR_SSH environment variable in env-variables
1878
help topic. (Alexander Belchenko, #181842)
1879
1880
* New methods ``push_log_file`` and ``pop_log_file`` to intercept messages:
1881
popping the log redirection now precisely restores the previous state,
1882
which makes it easier to use bzr log output from other programs.
1883
TestCaseInTempDir no longer depends on a log redirection being established
1884
by the test framework, which lets bzr tests cleanly run from a normal
1885
unittest runner.
1886
(#124153, #124849, Martin Pool, Jonathan Lange)
1887
1888
* ``pull --quiet`` is now more quiet, in particular a message is no longer
1889
printed when the remembered pull location is used. (James Westby,
1890
#185907)
1891
1892
* ``reconfigure`` can safely be interrupted while fetching.
1893
(Aaron Bentley, #179316)
1894
1895
* ``reconfigure`` preserves tags when converting to and from lightweight
1896
checkouts. (Aaron Bentley, #182040)
1897
1898
* Stop polluting /tmp when running selftest.
1899
(Vincent Ladeuil, #123623)
1900
1901
* Switch from NFKC => NFC for normalization checks. NFC allows a few
1902
more characters which should be considered valid.
1903
(John Arbash Meinel, #185458)
1904
1905
* The launchpad plugin now uses the ``edge`` xmlrpc server to avoid
1906
interacting badly with a bug on the launchpad side. (Robert Collins)
1907
1908
* Unknown hostnames when connecting to a ``bzr://`` URL no longer cause
1909
tracebacks. (Andrew Bennetts, #182849)
1910
1911
API BREAKS:
1912
1913
* Classes implementing Merge types like Merge3Merger must now accept (and
1914
honour) a do_merge flag in their constructor. (Aaron Bentley)
1915
1916
* ``Repository.add_inventory`` and ``add_revision`` now require the caller
1917
to previously take a write lock (and start a write group.)
1918
(Martin Pool)
1919
1920
TESTING:
1921
1922
* selftest now accepts --load-list <file> to load a test id list. This
1923
speeds up running the test suite on a limited set of tests.
1924
(Vincent Ladeuil)
1925
1926
INTERNALS:
1927
1928
* Add a new method ``get_result`` to graph search objects. The resulting
1929
``SearchResult`` can be used to recreate the search later, which will
1930
be useful in reducing network traffic. (Robert Collins)
1931
1932
* Use convenience function to check whether two repository handles
1933
are referring to the same repository in ``Repository.get_graph``.
1934
(Jelmer Vernooij, #187162)
1935
1936
* Fetching now passes the find_ghosts flag through to the
1937
``InterRepository.missing_revision_ids`` call consistently for all
1938
repository types. This will enable faster missing revision discovery with
1939
bzr+ssh. (Robert Collins)
1940
1941
* Fix error handling in Repository.insert_data_stream. (Lukas Lalinsky)
1942
1943
* ``InterRepository.missing_revision_ids`` is now deprecated in favour of
1944
``InterRepository.search_missing_revision_ids`` which returns a
1945
``bzrlib.graph.SearchResult`` suitable for making requests from the smart
1946
server. (Robert Collins)
1947
1948
* New error ``NoPublicBranch`` for commands that need a public branch to
1949
operate. (Robert Collins)
1950
1951
* New method ``iter_inventories`` on Repository for access to many
1952
inventories. This is primarily used by the ``revision_trees`` method, as
1953
direct access to inventories is discouraged. (Robert Collins)
1954
1955
* New method ``next_with_ghosts`` on the Graph breadth-first-search objects
1956
which will split out ghosts and present parents into two separate sets,
1957
useful for code which needs to be aware of ghosts (e.g. fetching data
1958
cares about ghosts during revision selection). (Robert Collins)
1959
1960
* Record a timestamp against each mutter to the trace file, relative to the
1961
first import of bzrlib. (Andrew Bennetts)
1962
1963
* ``Repository.get_data_stream`` is now deprecated in favour of
1964
``Repository.get_data_stream_for_search`` which allows less network
1965
traffic when requesting data streams over a smart server. (Robert Collins)
1966
1967
* ``RemoteBzrDir._get_tree_branch`` no longer triggers ``_ensure_real``,
1968
removing one round trip on many network operations. (Robert Collins)
1969
1970
* RemoteTransport's ``recommended_page_size`` method now returns 64k, like
1971
SFTPTransport and HttpTransportBase. (Andrew Bennetts)
1972
1973
* Repository has a new method ``has_revisions`` which signals the presence
1974
of many revisions by returning a set of the revisions listed which are
1975
present. This can be done by index queries without reading data for parent
1976
revision names etc. (Robert Collins)

1987
CHANGES:
1988
1989
* Dotted revision numbers have been revised. Instead of growing longer with
1990
nested branches the branch number just increases. (eg instead of 1.1.1.1.1
1991
we now report 1.2.1.) This helps scale long lived branches which have many
1992
feature branches merged between them. (John Arbash Meinel)
1993
1994
* The syntax ``bzr diff branch1 branch2`` is no longer supported.
1995
Use ``bzr diff branch1 --new branch2`` instead. This change has
1996
been made to remove the ambiguity where ``branch2`` is in fact a
1997
specific file to diff within ``branch1``.
1998
1999
FEATURES:
2000
2001
* New option to use custom template-based formats in ``bzr version-info``.
2002
(Lukáš Lalinský)
2003
2004
* diff '--using' allows an external diff tool to be used for files.
2005
(Aaron Bentley)
2006
2007
* New "lca" merge-type for fast everyday merging that also supports
2008
criss-cross merges. (Aaron Bentley)
2009
2010
IMPROVEMENTS:
2011
2012
* ``annotate`` now doesn't require a working tree. (Lukáš Lalinský,
2013
#90049)
2014
2015
* ``branch`` and ``checkout`` can now use files from a working tree to
2016
to speed up the process. For checkout, this requires the new
2017
--files-from flag. (Aaron Bentley)
2018
2019
* ``bzr diff`` now sorts files in alphabetical order. (Aaron Bentley)
2020
2021
* ``bzr diff`` now works on branches without working trees. Tree-less
2022
branches can also be compared to each other and to working trees using
2023
the new diff options ``--old`` and ``--new``. Diffing between branches,
2024
with or without trees, now supports specific file filtering as well.
2025
(Ian Clatworthy, #6700)
2026
2027
* ``bzr pack`` now orders revision texts in topological order, with newest
2028
at the start of the file, promoting linear reads for ``bzr log`` and the
2029
like. This partially fixes #154129. (Robert Collins)
2030
2031
* Merge directives now fetch prerequisites from the target branch if
2032
needed. (Aaron Bentley)
2033
2034
* pycurl now handles digest authentication.
2035
(Vincent Ladeuil)
2036
2037
* ``reconfigure`` can now convert from repositories. (Aaron Bentley)
2038
2039
* ``-l`` is now a short form for ``--limit`` in ``log``. (Matt Nordhoff)
2040
2041
* ``merge`` now warns when merge directives cause cherrypicks.
2042
(Aaron Bentley)
2043
2044
* ``split`` now supported, to enable splitting large trees into smaller
2045
pieces. (Aaron Bentley)
2046
2047
BUGFIXES:
2048
2049
* Avoid AttributeError when unlocking a pack repository when an error occurs.
2050
(Martin Pool, #180208)
2051
2052
* Better handle short reads when processing multiple range requests.
2053
(Vincent Ladeuil, #179368)
2054
2055
* build_tree acceleration uses the correct path when a file has been moved.
2056
(Aaron Bentley)
2057
2058
* ``commit`` now succeeds when a checkout and its master branch share a
2059
repository. (Aaron Bentley, #177592)
2060
2061
* Fixed error reporting of unsupported timezone format in
2062
``log --timezone``. (Lukáš Lalinský, #178722)
2063
2064
* Fixed Unicode encoding error in ``ignored`` when the output is
2065
redirected to a pipe. (Lukáš Lalinský)
2066
2067
* Fix traceback when sending large response bodies over the smart protocol
2068
on Windows. (Andrew Bennetts, #115781)
2069
2070
* Fix ``urlutils.relative_url`` for the case of two ``file:///`` URLs
2071
pointed to different logical drives on Windows.
2072
(Alexander Belchenko, #90847)
2073
2074
* HTTP test servers are now compatible with the http protocol version 1.1.
2075
(Vincent Ladeuil, #175524)
2076
2077
* _KnitParentsProvider.get_parent_map now handles requests for ghosts
2078
correctly, instead of erroring or attributing incorrect parents to ghosts.
2079
(Aaron Bentley)
2080
2081
* ``merge --weave --uncommitted`` now works. (Aaron Bentley)
2082
2083
* pycurl authentication handling was broken and incomplete. Fix handling of
2084
user:pass embedded in the urls.
2085
(Vincent Ladeuil, #177643)
2086
2087
* Files inside non-directories are now handled like other conflict types.
2088
(Aaron Bentley, #177390)
2089
2090
* ``reconfigure`` is able to convert trees into lightweight checkouts.
2091
(Aaron Bentley)
2092
2093
* Reduce lockdir timeout to 0 when running ``bzr serve``. (Andrew Bennetts,
2094
#148087)
2095
2096
* Test that the old ``version_info_format`` functions still work, even
2097
though they are deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel, ShenMaq, #177872)
2098
2099
* Transform failures no longer cause ImmortalLimbo errors (Aaron Bentley,
2100
#137681)
2101
2102
* ``uncommit`` works even when the commit messages of revisions to be
2103
removed use characters not supported in the terminal encoding.
2104
(Aaron Bentley)
2105
2106
* When dumb http servers return whole files instead of the requested ranges,
2107
read the remaining bytes by chunks to avoid overflowing network buffers.
2108
(Vincent Ladeuil, #175886)
2109
2110
DOCUMENTATION:
2111
2112
* Minor tweaks made to the bug tracker integration documentation.
2113
(Ian Clatworthy)
2114
2115
* Reference material has now be moved out of the User Guide and added
2116
to the User Reference. The User Reference has gained 4 sections as
2117
a result: Authenication Settings, Configuration Settings, Conflicts
2118
and Hooks. All help topics are now dumped into text format in the
2119
doc/en/user-reference directory for those who like browsing that
2120
information in their editor. (Ian Clatworthy)
2121
2122
* *Using Bazaar with Launchpad* tutorial added. (Ian Clatworthy)
2123
2124
INTERNALS:
2125
2126
* find_* methods available for BzrDirs, Branches and WorkingTrees.

* Help topics can now be loaded from files.
2130
(Ian Clatworthy, Alexander Belchenko)
2131
2132
* get_parent_map now always provides tuples as its output. (Aaron Bentley)
2133
2134
* Parent Providers should now implement ``get_parent_map`` returning a
2135
dictionary instead of ``get_parents`` returning a list.
2136
``Graph.get_parents`` is now deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel,
2137
Robert Collins)
2138
2139
* Patience Diff now supports arbitrary python objects, as long as they
2140
support ``hash()``. (John Arbash Meinel)
2141
2142
* Reduce selftest overhead to establish test names by memoization.
2143
(Vincent Ladeuil)
2144

2147
TESTING:
2148
2149
* Modules can now customise their tests by defining a ``load_tests``
2150
attribute. ``pydoc bzrlib.tests.TestUtil.TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule``
2151
for the documentation on this attribute. (Robert Collins)
2152
2153
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.condition_id_re`` which helps
2154
filter tests based on a regular expression search on the tests id.
2155
(Robert Collins)
2156
2157
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.condition_isinstance`` which helps
2158
filter tests based on class. (Robert Collins)
2159
2160
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.exclude_suite_by_condition`` which
2161
generalises the ``exclude_suite_by_re`` function. (Robert Collins)
2162
2163
* New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.filter_suite_by_condition`` which
2164
generalises the ``filter_suite_by_re`` function. (Robert Collins)
2165
2166
* New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.exclude_tests_by_re`` which gives a new
2167
TestSuite that does not contain tests from the input that matched a
2168
regular expression. (Robert Collins)
2169
2170
* New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.randomize_suite`` which returns a
2171
randomized copy of the input suite. (Robert Collins)
2172
2173
* New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.split_suite_by_re`` which splits a test
2174
suite into two according to a regular expression. (Robert Collins)
2175
2176
* Parametrize all http tests for the transport implementations, the http
2177
protocol versions (1.0 and 1.1) and the authentication schemes.
2178
(Vincent Ladeuil)
2179
2180
* The ``exclude_pattern`` and ``random_order`` parameters to the function
2181
``bzrlib.tests.filter_suite_by_re`` have been deprecated. (Robert Collins)
2182
2183
* The method ``bzrlib.tests.sort_suite_by_re`` has been deprecated. It is
2184
replaced by the new helper methods added in this release. (Robert Collins)

BUGFIXES:
2215
2216
* Fix Makefile rules for doc generation. (Ian Clatworthy, #175207)
2217
2218
* Give more feedback during long http downloads by making readv deliver data
2219
as it arrives for urllib, and issue more requests for pycurl. High latency
2220
networks are better handled by urllib, the pycurl implementation give more
2221
feedback but also incur more latency.
2222
(Vincent Ladeuil, #173010)

2255
* New configuration option ``bugtracker_<tracker_abbrevation>_url`` to
2256
define locations of bug trackers that are not directly supported by
2257
bzr or a plugin. The URL will be treated as a template and ``{id}``

2259
2260
* Support logging single merge revisions with short and line log formatters.

the catalog, provided in pdf and png format and updated to refer
2268
to ``send`` instead of ``bundle``. (Ian Clatworthy, #165080)
2269
2270
* ``switch`` can now be used on heavyweight checkouts as well as
2271
lightweight ones. After switching a heavyweight checkout, the
2272
local branch is a mirror/cache of the new bound branch and
2273
uncommitted changes in the working tree are merged. As a safety
2274
check, if there are local commits in a checkout which have not
2275
been committed to the previously bound branch, then ``switch``
2276
fails unless the ``--force`` option is given. This option is
2277
now also required if the branch a lightweight checkout is pointing

NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
2317
2318
* The default repository format is now ``pack-0.92``. This
2319
default is used when creating new repositories with ``init`` and
2320
``init-repo``, and when branching over bzr+ssh or bzr+hpss.
2321
(See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164626)
2322
2323
This format can be read and written by Bazaar 0.92 and later, and
2324
data can be transferred to and from older formats.
2325
2326
To upgrade, please reconcile your repository (``bzr reconcile``), and then
2327
upgrade (``bzr upgrade``).
2328
2329
``pack-0.92`` offers substantially better scaling and performance than the
2330
previous knits format. Some operations are slower where the code already
2331
had bad scaling characteristics under knits, the pack format makes such
2332
operations more visible as part of being more scalable overall. We will
2333
correct such operations over the coming releases and encourage the filing
2334
of bugs on any operation which you observe to be slower in a packs
2335
repository. One particular case that we do not intend to fix is pulling
2336
data from a pack repository into a knit repository over a high latency
2337
link; downgrading such data requires reinsertion of the file texts, and
2338
this is a classic space/time tradeoff. The current implementation is
2339
conservative on memory usage because we need to support converting data
2340
from any tree without problems.

2343
CHANGES:
2344
2345
* Disable detection of plink.exe as possible ssh vendor. Plink vendor
2346
still available if user selects it explicitly with BZR_SSH environment
2347
variable. (Alexander Belchenko, workaround for bug #107593)
2348
2349
* The pack format is now accessible as "pack-0.92", or "pack-0.92-subtree"
2350
to enable the subtree functions (for example, for bzr-svn).
2351
See http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/developer/packrepo.html
2352
(Martin Pool)
2353
2354
FEATURES:
2355
2356
* New ``authentication.conf`` file holding the password or other credentials
2357
for remote servers. This can be used for ssh, sftp, smtp and other
2358
supported transports.
2359
(Vincent Ladeuil)
2360
2361
* New rich-root and rich-root-pack formats, recording the same data about
2362
tree roots that's recorded for all other directories.
2363
(Aaron Bentley, #164639)
2364
2365
* ``pack-0.92`` repositories can now be reconciled.
2366
(Robert Collins, #154173)
2367
2368
* ``switch`` command added for changing the branch a lightweight checkout
2369
is associated with and updating the tree to reflect the latest content
2370
accordingly. This command was previously part of the BzrTools plug-in.
2371
(Ian Clatworthy, Aaron Bentley, David Allouche)
2372
2373
* ``reconfigure`` command can now convert branches, trees, or checkouts to
2374
lightweight checkouts. (Aaron Bentley)
2375
2376
PERFORMANCE:
2377
2378
* Commit updates the state of the working tree via a delta rather than
2379
supplying entirely new basis trees. For commit of a single specified file
2380
this reduces the wall clock time for commit by roughly a 30%.
2381
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
2382
2383
* Commit with many automatically found deleted paths no longer performs
2384
linear scanning for the children of those paths during inventory
2385
iteration. This should fix commit performance blowing out when many such
2386
paths occur during commit. (Robert Collins, #156491)
2387
2388
* Fetch with pack repositories will no longer read the entire history graph.
2389
(Robert Collins, #88319)
2390
2391
* Revert takes out an appropriate lock when reverting to a basis tree, and
2392
does not read the basis inventory twice. (Robert Collins)
2393
2394
* Diff does not require an inventory to be generated on dirstate trees.
2395
(Aaron Bentley, #149254)
2396
2397
* New annotate merge (--merge-type=weave) implementation is fast on
2398
versionedfiles withough cached annotations, e.g. pack-0.92.
2399
(Aaron Bentley)
2400
2401
IMPROVEMENTS:
2402
2403
* ``bzr merge`` now warns when it encounters a criss-cross merge.
2404
(Aaron Bentley)
2405
2406
* ``bzr send`` now doesn't require the target e-mail address to be
2407
specified on the command line if an interactive e-mail client is used.
2408
(Lukáš Lalinský)
2409
2410
* ``bzr tags`` now prints the revision number for each tag, instead of
2411
the revision id, unless --show-ids is passed. In addition, tags can be
2412
sorted chronologically instead of lexicographically with --sort=time.
2413
(Adeodato Simó, #120231)
2414
2415
* Windows standalone version of bzr is able to load system-wide plugins from
2416
"plugins" subdirectory in installation directory. In addition standalone
2417
installer write to the registry (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Bazaar) useful info
2418
about paths and bzr version. (Alexander Belchenko, #129298)

2422
BUG FIXES:
2423
2424
* A progress bar has been added for knitpack -> knitpack fetching.
2425
(Robert Collins, #157789, #159147)
2426
2427
* Branching from a branch via smart server now preserves the repository
2428
format. (Andrew Bennetts, #164626)
2429
2430
* ``commit`` is now able to invoke an external editor in a non-ascii
2431
directory. (Daniel Watkins, #84043)
2432
2433
* Catch connection errors for ftp.
2434
(Vincent Ladeuil, #164567)
2435
2436
* ``check`` no longer reports spurious unreferenced text versions.
2437
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, #162931, #165071)
2438
2439
* Conflicts are now resolved recursively by ``revert``.
2440
(Aaron Bentley, #102739)
2441
2442
* Detect invalid transport reuse attempts by catching invalid URLs.
2443
(Vincent Ladeuil, #161819)
2444
2445
* Deleting a file without removing it shows a correct diff, not a traceback.
2446
(Aaron Bentley)
2447
2448
* Do no use timeout in HttpServer anymore.
2449
(Vincent Ladeuil, #158972).
2450
2451
* Don't catch the exceptions related to the http pipeline status before
2452
retrying an http request or some programming errors may be masked.
2453
(Vincent Ladeuil, #160012)
2454
2455
* Fix ``bzr rm`` to not delete modified and ignored files.
2456
(Lukáš Lalinský, #172598)
2457
2458
* Fix exception when revisionspec contains merge revisons but log
2459
formatter doesn't support merge revisions. (Kent Gibson, #148908)
2460
2461
* Fix exception when ScopeReplacer is assigned to before any members have
2462
been retrieved. (Aaron Bentley)
2463
2464
* Fix multiple connections during checkout --lightweight.
2465
(Vincent Ladeuil, #159150)
2466
2467
* Fix possible error in insert_data_stream when copying between
2468
pack repositories over bzr+ssh or bzr+http.
2469
KnitVersionedFile.get_data_stream now makes sure that requested
2470
compression parents are sent before any delta hunks that depend
2471
on them.
2472
(Martin Pool, #164637)
2473
2474
* Fix typo in limiting offsets coalescing for http, leading to
2475
whole files being downloaded instead of parts.
2476
(Vincent Ladeuil, #165061)
2477
2478
* FTP server errors don't error in the error handling code.
2479
(Robert Collins, #161240)
2480
2481
* Give a clearer message when a pull fails because the source needs
2482
to be reconciled.
2483
(Martin Pool, #164443)
2484
2485
* It is clearer when a plugin cannot be loaded because of its name, and a
2486
suggestion for an acceptable name is given. (Daniel Watkins, #103023)
2487
2488
* Leave port as None in transport objects if user doesn't
2489
specify a port in urls.
2490
(vincent Ladeuil, #150860)
2491
2492
* Make sure Repository.fetch(self) is properly a no-op for all
2493
Repository implementations. (John Arbash Meinel, #158333)
2494
2495
* Mark .bzr directories as "hidden" on Windows.
2496
(Alexander Belchenko, #71147)
2497
2498
* ``merge --uncommitted`` can now operate on a single file.
2499
(Aaron Bentley, Lukáš Lalinský, #136890)
2500
2501
* Obsolete packs are now cleaned up by pack and autopack operations.
2502
(Robert Collins, #153789)
2503
2504
* Operations pulling data from a smart server where the underlying
2505
repositories are not both annotated/both unannotated will now work.
2506
(Robert Collins, #165304).
2507
2508
* Reconcile now shows progress bars. (Robert Collins, #159351)
2509
2510
* ``RemoteBranch`` was not initializing ``self._revision_id_to_revno_map``
2511
properly. (John Arbash Meinel, #162486)
2512
2513
* Removing an already-removed file reports the file does not exist. (Daniel
2514
Watkins, #152811)
2515
2516
* Rename on Windows is able to change filename case.
2517
(Alexander Belchenko, #77740)
2518
2519
* Return error instead of a traceback for ``bzr log -r0``.
2520
(Kent Gibson, #133751)
2521
2522
* Return error instead of a traceback when bzr is unable to create
2523
symlink on some platforms (e.g. on Windows).
2524
(Alexander Belchenko, workaround for #81689)
2525
2526
* Revert doesn't crash when restoring a single file from a deleted
2527
directory. (Aaron Bentley)
2528
2529
* Stderr output via logging mechanism now goes through encoded wrapper
2530
and no more uses utf-8, but terminal encoding instead. So all unicode
2531
strings now should be readable in non-utf-8 terminal.
2532
(Alexander Belchenko, #54173)
2533
2534
* The error message when ``move --after`` should be used makes how to do so
2535
clearer. (Daniel Watkins, #85237)
2536
2537
* Unicode-safe output from ``bzr info``. The output will be encoded
2538
using the terminal encoding and unrepresentable characters will be
2539
replaced by '?'. (Lukáš Lalinský, #151844)
2540
2541
* Working trees are no longer created when pushing into a local no-trees
2542
repo. (Daniel Watkins, #50582)
2543
2544
* Upgrade util/configobj to version 4.4.0.
2545
(Vincent Ladeuil, #151208).
2546
2547
* Wrap medusa ftp test server as an FTPServer feature.
2548
(Vincent Ladeuil, #157752)
2549
2550
API BREAKS:
2551
2552
* ``osutils.backup_file`` is deprecated. Actually it's not used in bzrlib
2553
during very long time. (Alexander Belchenko)
2554
2555
* The return value of
2556
``VersionedFile.iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` has been
2557
changed. Previously it was an iterator of lines, now it is an iterator of
2558
(line, version_id) tuples. This change has been made to aid reconcile and
2559
fetch operations. (Robert Collins)
2560
2561
* ``bzrlib.repository.get_versioned_file_checker`` is now private.
2562
(Robert Collins)
2563
2564
* The Repository format registry default has been removed; it was previously
2565
obsoleted by the bzrdir format default, which implies a default repository
2566
format.
2567
(Martin Pool)
2568
2569
INTERNALS:
2570
2571
* Added ``ContainerSerialiser`` and ``ContainerPushParser`` to
2572
``bzrlib.pack``. These classes provide more convenient APIs for generating
2573
and parsing containers from streams rather than from files. (Andrew
2574
Bennetts)
2575
2576
* New module ``lru_cache`` providing a cache for use by tasks that need
2577
semi-random access to large amounts of data. (John A Meinel)
2578
2579
* InventoryEntry.diff is now deprecated. Please use diff.DiffTree instead.

NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
2596
2597
CHANGES:
2598
2599
* ``bzr`` now returns exit code 4 if an internal error occurred, and
2600
3 if a normal error occurred. (Martin Pool)
2601
2602
* ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently correct some
2603
repository index errors that occured as a result of the Weave disk format.
2604
Instead the ``reconcile`` command needs to be run to correct those
2605
problems if they exist (and it has been able to fix most such problems
2606
since bzr 0.8). Some new problems have been identified during this release
2607
and you should run ``bzr check`` once on every repository to see if you
2608
need to reconcile. If you cannot ``pull`` or ``merge`` from a remote
2609
repository due to mismatched parent errors - a symptom of index errors -
2610
you should simply take a full copy of that remote repository to a clean
2611
directory outside any local repositories, then run reconcile on it, and
2612
finally pull from it locally. (And naturally email the repositories owner
2613
to ask them to upgrade and run reconcile).
2614
(Robert Collins)
2615
2616
FEATURES:
2617
2618
* New ``knitpack-experimental`` repository format. This is interoperable with
2619
the ``dirstate-tags`` format but uses a smarter storage design that greatly
2620
speeds up many operations, both local and remote. This new format can be
2621
used as an option to the ``init``, ``init-repository`` and ``upgrade``
2622
commands. See http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/0.92/developers/knitpack.html
2623
for further details. (Robert Collins)
2624
2625
* For users of bzr-svn (and those testing the prototype subtree support) that
2626
wish to try packs, a new ``knitpack-subtree-experimental`` format has also
2627
been added. This is interoperable with the ``dirstate-subtrees`` format.
2628
(Robert Collins)
2629
2630
* New ``reconfigure`` command. (Aaron Bentley)
2631
2632
* New ``revert --forget-merges`` command, which removes the record of a pending
2633
merge without affecting the working tree contents. (Martin Pool)
2634
2635
* New ``bzr_remote_path`` configuration variable allows finer control of
2636
remote bzr locations than BZR_REMOTE_PATH environment variable.
2637
(Aaron Bentley)
2638
2639
* New ``launchpad-login`` command to tell Bazaar your Launchpad
2640
user ID. This can then be used by other functions of the
2641
Launchpad plugin. (James Henstridge)
2642
2643
PERFORMANCE:
2644
2645
* Commit in quiet mode is now slightly faster as the information to
2646
output is no longer calculated. (Ian Clatworthy)
2647
2648
* Commit no longer checks for new text keys during insertion when the
2649
revision id was deterministically unique. (Robert Collins)
2650
2651
* Committing a change which is not a merge and does not change the number of
2652
files in the tree is faster by utilising the data about whether files are
2653
changed to determine if the tree is unchanged rather than recalculating
2654
it at the end of the commit process. (Robert Collins)
2655
2656
* Inventory serialisation no longer double-sha's the content.
2657
(Robert Collins)
2658
2659
* Knit text reconstruction now avoids making copies of the lines list for
2660
interim texts when building a single text. The new ``apply_delta`` method
2661
on ``KnitContent`` aids this by allowing modification of the revision id
2662
such objects represent. (Robert Collins)
2663
2664
* Pack indices are now partially parsed for specific key lookup using a
2665
bisection approach. (Robert Collins)
2666
2667
* Partial commits are now approximately 40% faster by walking over the
2668
unselected current tree more efficiently. (Robert Collins)
2669
2670
* XML inventory serialisation takes 20% less time while being stricter about
2671
the contents. (Robert Collins)
2672
2673
* Graph ``heads()`` queries have been fixed to no longer access all history
2674
unnecessarily. (Robert Collins)
2675
2676
IMPROVEMENTS:
2677
2678
* ``bzr+https://`` smart server across https now supported.
2679
(John Ferlito, Martin Pool, #128456)
2680
2681
* Mutt is now a supported mail client; set ``mail_client=mutt`` in your
2682
bazaar.conf and ``send`` will use mutt. (Keir Mierle)
2683
2684
* New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``merge`` command for cherrypicking
2685
changes from one revision. (Alexander Belchenko, #141368)
2686
2687
* Show encodings, locale and list of plugins in the traceback message.
2688
(Martin Pool, #63894)
2689
2690
* Experimental directory formats can now be marked with
2691
``experimental = True`` during registration. (Ian Clatworthy)
2692
2693
DOCUMENTATION:
2694
2695
* New *Bazaar in Five Minutes* guide. (Matthew Revell)
2696
2697
* The hooks reference documentation is now converted to html as expected.
2698
(Ian Clatworthy)
2699
2700
BUG FIXES:
2701
2702
* Connection error reporting for the smart server has been fixed to
2703
display a user friendly message instead of a traceback.
2704
(Ian Clatworthy, #115601)
2705
2706
* Make sure to use ``O_BINARY`` when opening files to check their
2707
sha1sum. (Alexander Belchenko, John Arbash Meinel, #153493)
2708
2709
* Fix a problem with Win32 handling of the executable bit.
2710
(John Arbash Meinel, #149113)
2711
2712
* ``bzr+ssh://`` and ``sftp://`` URLs that do not specify ports explicitly
2713
no longer assume that means port 22. This allows people using OpenSSH to
2714
override the default port in their ``~/.ssh/config`` if they wish. This
2715
fixes a bug introduced in bzr 0.91. (Andrew Bennetts, #146715)
2716
2717
* Commands reporting exceptions can now be profiled and still have their
2718
data correctly dumped to a file. For example, a ``bzr commit`` with
2719
no changes still reports the operation as pointless but doing so no
2720
longer throws away the profiling data if this command is run with
2721
``--lsprof-file callgrind.out.ci`` say. (Ian Clatworthy)
2722
2723
* Fallback to ftp when paramiko is not installed and sftp can't be used for
2724
``tests/commands`` so that the test suite is still usable without
2725
paramiko.
2726
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59150)
2727
2728
* Fix commit ordering in corner case. (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
2729
2730
* Fix long standing bug in partial commit when there are renames
2731
left in tree. (Robert Collins, #140419)
2732
2733
* Fix selftest semi-random noise during http related tests.
2734
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140614)
2735
2736
* Fix typo in ftp.py making the reconnection fail on temporary errors.
2737
(Vincent Ladeuil, #154259)
2738
2739
* Fix failing test by comparing real paths to cover the case where the TMPDIR
2740
contains a symbolic link.
2741
(Vincent Ladeuil, #141382).
2742
2743
* Fix log against smart server branches that don't support tags.
2744
(James Westby, #140615)
2745
2746
* Fix pycurl http implementation by defining error codes from
2747
pycurl instead of relying on an old curl definition.
2748
(Vincent Ladeuil, #147530)
2749
2750
* Fix 'unprintable error' message when displaying BzrCheckError and
2751
some other exceptions on Python 2.5.
2752
(Martin Pool, #144633)
2753
2754
* Fix ``Inventory.copy()`` and add test for it. (Jelmer Vernooij)
2755
2756
* Handles default value for ListOption in cmd_commit.
2757
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140432)
2758
2759
* HttpServer and FtpServer need to be closed properly or a listening socket
2760
will remain opened.
2761
(Vincent Ladeuil, #140055)
2762
2763
* Monitor the .bzr directory created in the top level test
2764
directory to detect leaking tests.
2765
(Vincent Ladeuil, #147986)
2766
2767
* The basename, not the full path, is now used when checking whether
2768
the profiling dump file begins with ``callgrind.out`` or not. This
2769
fixes a bug reported by Aaron Bentley on IRC. (Ian Clatworthy)
2770
2771
* Trivial fix for invoking command ``reconfigure`` without arguments.
2772
(Rob Weir, #141629)
2773
2774
* ``WorkingTree.rename_one`` will now raise an error if normalisation of the
2775
new path causes bzr to be unable to access the file. (Robert Collins)
2776
2777
* Correctly detect a NoSuchFile when using a filezilla server. (Gary van der
2778
Merwe)
2779
2780
API BREAKS:
2781
2782
* ``bzrlib.index.GraphIndex`` now requires a size parameter to the
2783
constructor, for enabling bisection searches. (Robert Collins)
2784
2785
* ``CommitBuilder.record_entry_contents`` now requires the root entry of a
2786
tree be supplied to it, previously failing to do so would trigger a
2787
deprecation warning. (Robert Collins)
2788
2789
* ``KnitVersionedFile.add*`` will no longer cache added records even when
2790
enable_cache() has been called - the caching feature is now exclusively for
2791
reading existing data. (Robert Collins)
2792
2793
* ``ReadOnlyLockError`` is deprecated; ``LockFailed`` is usually more
2794
appropriate. (Martin Pool)
2795
2796
* Removed ``bzrlib.transport.TransportLogger`` - please see the new
2797
``trace+`` transport instead. (Robert Collins)
2798
2799
* Removed previously deprecated varargs interface to ``TestCase.run_bzr`` and
2800
deprecated methods ``TestCase.capture`` and ``TestCase.run_bzr_captured``.
2801
(Martin Pool)
2802
2803
* Removed previous deprecated ``basis_knit`` parameter to the
2804
``KnitVersionedFile`` constructor. (Robert Collins)
2805
2806
* Special purpose method ``TestCase.run_bzr_decode`` is moved to the test_non_ascii
2807
class that needs it.
2808
(Martin Pool)
2809
2810
* The class ``bzrlib.repofmt.knitrepo.KnitRepository3`` has been folded into
2811
``KnitRepository`` by parameters to the constructor. (Robert Collins)
2812
2813
* The ``VersionedFile`` interface now allows content checks to be bypassed
2814
by supplying check_content=False. This saves nearly 30% of the minimum
2815
cost to store a version of a file. (Robert Collins)
2816
2817
* Tree's with bad state such as files with no length or sha will no longer
2818
be silently accepted by the repository XML serialiser. To serialise
2819
inventories without such data, pass working=True to write_inventory.
2820
(Robert Collins)
2821
2822
* ``VersionedFile.fix_parents`` has been removed as a harmful API.
2823
``VersionedFile.join`` will no longer accept different parents on either
2824
side of a join - it will either ignore them, or error, depending on the
2825
implementation. See notes when upgrading for more information.
2826
(Robert Collins)
2827
2828
INTERNALS:
2829
2830
* ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.put_file`` now returns the number of bytes
2831
put by the method call, to allow avoiding stat-after-write or
2832
housekeeping in callers. (Robert Collins)
2833
2834
* ``bzrlib.xml_serializer.Serializer`` is now responsible for checking that
2835
mandatory attributes are present on serialisation and deserialisation.
2836
This fixes some holes in API usage and allows better separation between
2837
physical storage and object serialisation. (Robert Collins)
2838
2839
* New class ``bzrlib.errors.InternalBzrError`` which is just a convenient
2840
shorthand for deriving from BzrError and setting internal_error = True.
2841
(Robert Collins)
2842
2843
* New method ``bzrlib.mutabletree.update_to_one_parent_via_delta`` for
2844
moving the state of a parent tree to a new version via a delta rather than
2845
a complete replacement tree. (Robert Collins)
2846
2847
* New method ``bzrlib.osutils.minimum_path_selection`` useful for removing
2848
duplication from user input, when a user mentions both a path and an item
2849
contained within that path. (Robert Collins)
2850
2851
* New method ``bzrlib.repository.Repository.is_write_locked`` useful for
2852
determining if a repository is write locked. (Robert Collins)
2853
2854
* New method on ``bzrlib.tree.Tree`` ``path_content_summary`` provides a
2855
tuple containing the key information about a path for commit processing
2856
to complete. (Robert Collins)
2857
2858
* New method on xml serialisers, write_inventory_to_lines, which matches the
2859
API used by knits for adding content. (Robert Collins)
2860
2861
* New module ``bzrlib.bisect_multi`` with generic multiple-bisection-at-once
2862
logic, currently only available for byte-based lookup
2863
(``bisect_multi_bytes``). (Robert Collins)
2864
2865
* New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a byte string
2866
and returns a gzipped version of the same. This is used to avoid a bunch
2867
of api friction during adding of knit hunks. (Robert Collins)
2868
2869
* New parameter on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.readv``
2870
``adjust_for_latency`` which changes readv from returning strictly the
2871
requested data to inserted return larger ranges and in forward read order
2872
to reduce the effect of network latency. (Robert Collins)
2873
2874
* New parameter yield_parents on ``Inventory.iter_entries_by_dir`` which
2875
causes the parents of a selected id to be returned recursively, so all the
2876
paths from the root down to each element of selected_file_ids are
2877
returned. (Robert Collins)
2878
2879
* Knit joining has been enhanced to support plain to annotated conversion
2880
and annotated to plain conversion. (Ian Clatworthy)
2881
2882
* The CommitBuilder method ``record_entry_contents`` now returns summary
2883
information about the effect of the commit on the repository. This tuple
2884
contains an inventory delta item if the entry changed from the basis, and a
2885
boolean indicating whether a new file graph node was recorded.
2886
(Robert Collins)
2887
2888
* The python path used in the Makefile can now be overridden.
2889
(Andrew Bennetts, Ian Clatworthy)
2890
2891
TESTING:
2892
2893
* New transport implementation ``trace+`` which is useful for testing,
2894
logging activity taken to its _activity attribute. (Robert Collins)
2895
2896
* When running bzr commands within the test suite, internal exceptions are
2897
not caught and reported in the usual way, but rather allowed to propagate
2898
up and be visible to the test suite. A new API ``run_bzr_catch_user_errors``
2899
makes this behavior available to other users.
2900
(Martin Pool)
2901
2902
* New method ``TestCase.call_catch_warnings`` for testing methods that
2903
raises a Python warning. (Martin Pool)
2904
2905
2906
bzr 0.91 2007-09-26
2907
-------------------
2908
2909
BUG FIXES:
2910
2911
* Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py install``
2912
process if building of a C extension is not possible.
2913
(Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
2914
2915
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
2916
2917
* Fix ''bzr info bzr://host/'' and other operations on ''bzr://' URLs with
2918
an implicit port. We were incorrectly raising PathNotChild due to
2919
inconsistent treatment of the ''_port'' attribute on the Transport object.
2920
(Andrew Bennetts, #133965)
2921
2922
* Make RemoteRepository.sprout cope gracefully with servers that don't
2923
support the ``Repository.tarball`` request.
2924
(Andrew Bennetts)
2925
2926
2927
bzr 0.91rc2 2007-09-11
2928
----------------------
2929
2930
* Replaced incorrect tarball for previous release; a debug statement was left
2931
in bzrlib/remote.py.
2932
2933
2934
bzr 0.91rc1 2007-09-11
2935
----------------------
2936
2937
CHANGES:
2938
2939
* The default branch and repository format has changed to
2940
``dirstate-tags``, so tag commands are active by default.
2941
This format is compatible with Bazaar 0.15 and later.
2942
This incidentally fixes bug #126141.
2943
(Martin Pool)
2944
2945
* ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is no longer a global option. If present, it
2946
must now appear after the command name. Scripts doing things like
2947
``bzr -q missing`` need to be rewritten as ``bzr missing -q``.
2948
(Ian Clatworthy)
2949
2950
FEATURES:
2951
2952
* New option ``--author`` in ``bzr commit`` to specify the author of the
2953
change, if it's different from the committer. ``bzr log`` and
2954
``bzr annotate`` display the author instead of the committer.
2955
(Lukáš Lalinský)
2956
2957
* In addition to global options and command specific options, a set of
2958
standard options are now supported. Standard options are legal for
2959
all commands. The initial set of standard options are:
2960
2961
* ``--help`` or ``-h`` - display help message
2962
* ``--verbose`` or ``-v`` - display additional information
2963
* ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` - only output warnings and errors.
2964
2965
Unlike global options, standard options can be used in aliases and
2966
may have command-specific help. (Ian Clatworthy)
2967
2968
* Verbosity level processing has now been unified. If ``--verbose``
2969
or ``-v`` is specified on the command line multiple times, the
2970
verbosity level is made positive the first time then increased.
2971
If ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is specified on the command line
2972
multiple times, the verbosity level is made negative the first
2973
time then decreased. To get the default verbosity level of zero,
2974
either specify none of the above , ``--no-verbose`` or ``--no-quiet``.
2975
Note that most commands currently ignore the magnitude of the
2976
verbosity level but do respect *quiet vs normal vs verbose* when
2977
generating output. (Ian Clatworthy)
2978
2979
* ``Branch.hooks`` now supports ``pre_commit`` hook. The hook's signature
2980
is documented in BranchHooks constructor. (Nam T. Nguyen, #102747)
2981
2982
* New ``Repository.stream_knit_data_for_revisions`` request added to the
2983
network protocol for greatly reduced roundtrips when retrieving a set of
2984
revisions. (Andrew Bennetts)
2985
2986
BUG FIXES:
2987
2988
* ``bzr plugins`` now lists the version number for each plugin in square
2989
brackets after the path. (Robert Collins, #125421)
2990
2991
* Pushing, pulling and branching branches with subtree references was not
2992
copying the subtree weave, preventing the file graph from being accessed
2993
and causing errors in commits in clones. (Robert Collins)
2994
2995
* Suppress warning "integer argument expected, got float" from Paramiko,
2996
which sometimes caused false test failures. (Martin Pool)
2997
2998
* Fix bug in bundle 4 that could cause attempts to write data to wrong
2999
versionedfile. (Aaron Bentley)
3000
3001
* Diffs generated using "diff -p" no longer break the patch parser.
3002
(Aaron Bentley)
3003
3004
* get_transport treats an empty possible_transports list the same as a non-
3005
empty one. (Aaron Bentley)
3006
3007
* patch verification for merge directives is reactivated, and works with
3008
CRLF and CR files. (Aaron Bentley)
3009
3010
* Accept ..\ as a path in revision specifiers. This fixes for example
3011
"-r branch:..\other-branch" on Windows. (Lukáš Lalinský)
3012
3013
* ``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` may now contain trailing slashes.
3014
(Blake Winton, #129299)
3015
3016
* man page no longer lists hidden options (#131667, Aaron Bentley)
3017
3018
* ``uncommit --help`` now explains the -r option adequately. (Daniel
3019
Watkins, #106726)
3020
3021
* Error messages are now better formatted with parameters (such as
3022
filenames) quoted when necessary. This avoids confusion when directory
3023
names ending in a '.' at the end of messages were confused with a
3024
full stop that may or not have been there. (Daniel Watkins, #129791)
3025
3026
* Fix ``status FILE -r X..Y``. (Lukáš Lalinský)
3027
3028
* If a particular command is an alias, ``help`` will show the alias
3029
instead of claiming there is no help for said alias. (Daniel Watkins,
3030
#133548)
3031
3032
* TreeTransform-based operations, like pull, merge, revert, and branch,
3033
now roll back if they encounter an error. (Aaron Bentley, #67699)
3034
3035
* ``bzr commit`` now exits cleanly if a character unsupported by the
3036
current encoding is used in the commit message. (Daniel Watkins,
3037
#116143)
3038
3039
* bzr send uses default values for ranges when only half of an elipsis
3040
is specified ("-r..5" or "-r5.."). (#61685, Aaron Bentley)
3041
3042
* Avoid trouble when Windows ssh calls itself 'plink' but no plink
3043
binary is present. (Martin Albisetti, #107155)
3044
3045
* ``bzr remove`` should remove clean subtrees. Now it will remove (without
3046
needing ``--force``) subtrees that contain no files with text changes or
3047
modified files. With ``--force`` it removes the subtree regardless of
3048
text changes or unknown files. Directories with renames in or out (but
3049
not changed otherwise) will now be removed without needing ``--force``.
3050
Unknown ignored files will be deleted without needing ``--force``.
3051
(Marius Kruger, #111665)
3052
3053
* When two plugins conflict, the source of both the losing and now the
3054
winning definition is shown. (Konstantin Mikhaylov, #5454)
3055
3056
* When committing to a branch, the location being committed to is
3057
displayed. (Daniel Watkins, #52479)
3058
3059
* ``bzr --version`` takes care about encoding of stdout, especially
3060
when output is redirected. (Alexander Belchenko, #131100)
3061
3062
* Prompt for an ftp password if none is provided.
3063
(Vincent Ladeuil, #137044)
3064
3065
* Reuse bound branch associated transport to avoid multiple
3066
connections.
3067
(Vincent Ladeuil, #128076, #131396)
3068
3069
* Overwrite conflicting tags by ``push`` and ``pull`` if the
3070
``--overwrite`` option is specified. (Lukáš Lalinský, #93947)
3071
3072
* In checkouts, tags are copied into the master branch when created,
3073
changed or deleted, and are copied into the checkout when it is
3074
updated. (Martin Pool, #93856, #93860)
3075
3076
* Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py install``
3077
process if building of a C extension is not possible.
3078
(Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
3079
3080
IMPROVEMENTS:
3081
3082
* Add the option "--show-diff" to the commit command in order to display
3083
the diff during the commit log creation. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
3084
3085
* ``pull`` and ``merge`` are much faster at installing bundle format 4.
3086
(Aaron Bentley)
3087
3088
* ``pull -v`` no longer includes deltas, making it much faster.
3089
(Aaron Bentley)
3090
3091
* ``send`` now sends the directive as an attachment by default.
3092
(Aaron Bentley, Lukáš Lalinský, Alexander Belchenko)
3093
3094
* Documentation updates (Martin Albisetti)
3095
3096
* Help on debug flags is now included in ``help global-options``.
3097
(Daniel Watkins, #124853)
3098
3099
* Parameters passed on the command line are checked to ensure they are
3100
supported by the encoding in use. (Daniel Watkins)
3101
3102
* The compression used within the bzr repository has changed from zlib
3103
level 9 to the zlib default level. This improves commit performance with
3104
only a small increase in space used (and in some cases a reduction in
3105
space). (Robert Collins)
3106
3107
* Initial commit no longer SHAs files twice and now reuses the path
3108
rather than looking it up again, making it faster.
3109
(Ian Clatworthy)
3110
3111
* New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``diff`` and ``status`` to show
3112
changes in one revision. (Lukáš Lalinský)
3113
3114
* If versioned files match a given ignore pattern, a warning is now
3115
given. (Daniel Watkins, #48623)
3116
3117
* ``bzr status`` now has -S as a short name for --short and -V as a
3118
short name for --versioned. These have been added to assist users
3119
migrating from Subversion: ``bzr status -SV`` is now like
3120
``svn status -q``. (Daniel Watkins, #115990)
3121
3122
* Added C implementation of ``PatienceSequenceMatcher``, which is about
3123
10x faster than the Python version. This speeds up commands that
3124
need file diffing, such as ``bzr commit`` or ``bzr diff``.
3125
(Lukáš Lalinský)
3126
3127
* HACKING has been extended with a large section on core developer tasks.
3128
(Ian Clatworthy)
3129
3130
* Add ``branches`` and ``standalone-trees`` as online help topics and
3131
include them as Concepts within the User Reference.
3132
(Paul Moore, Ian Clatworthy)
3133
3134
* ``check`` can detect versionedfile parent references that are
3135
inconsistent with revision and inventory info, and ``reconcile`` can fix
3136
them. These faulty references were generated by 0.8-era releases,
3137
so repositories which were manipulated by old bzrs should be
3138
checked, and possibly reconciled ASAP. (Aaron Bentley, Andrew Bennetts)
3139
3140
API BREAKS:
3141
3142
* ``Branch.append_revision`` is removed altogether; please use
3143
``Branch.set_last_revision_info`` instead. (Martin Pool)
3144
3145
* CommitBuilder now advertises itself as requiring the root entry to be
3146
supplied. This only affects foreign repository implementations which reuse
3147
CommitBuilder directly and have changed record_entry_contents to require
3148
that the root not be supplied. This should be precisely zero plugins
3149
affected. (Robert Collins)
3150
3151
* The ``add_lines`` methods on ``VersionedFile`` implementations has changed
3152
its return value to include the sha1 and length of the inserted text. This
3153
allows the avoidance of double-sha1 calculations during commit.
3154
(Robert Collins)
3155
3156
* ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed. It was not called in the
3157
previous release. (Martin Pool)
3158
3159
TESTING:
3160
3161
* Tests may now raise TestNotApplicable to indicate they shouldn't be
3162
run in a particular scenario. (Martin Pool)
3163
3164
* New function multiply_tests_from_modules to give a simpler interface
3165
to test parameterization. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
3166
3167
* ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed. It was not called in the
3168
previous release. (Martin Pool)
3169
3170
* NULL_REVISION is returned to indicate the null revision, not None.
3171
(Aaron Bentley)
3172
3173
* Use UTF-8 encoded StringIO for log tests to avoid failures on
3174
non-ASCII committer names. (Lukáš Lalinský)
3175
3176
INTERNALS:
3177
3178
* ``bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins`` has been deprecated in favour of
3179
``bzrlib.plugin.plugins()`` which returns PlugIn objects that provide
3180
useful functionality for determining the path of a plugin, its tests, and
3181
its version information. (Robert Collins)
3182
3183
* Add the option user_encoding to the function 'show_diff_trees()'
3184
in order to move the user encoding at the UI level. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
3185
3186
* Add the function make_commit_message_template_encoded() and the function
3187
edit_commit_message_encoded() which handle encoded strings.
3188
This is done in order to mix the commit messages (which is a unicode
3189
string), and the diff which is a raw string. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
3190
3191
* CommitBuilder now defaults to using add_lines_with_ghosts, reducing
3192
overhead on non-weave repositories which don't require all parents to be
3193
present. (Robert Collins)
3194
3195
* Deprecated method ``find_previous_heads`` on
3196
``bzrlib.inventory.InventoryEntry``. This has been superseded by the use
3197
of ``parent_candidates`` and a separate heads check via the repository
3198
API. (Robert Collins)
3199
3200
* New trace function ``mutter_callsite`` will print out a subset of the
3201
stack to the log, which can be useful for gathering debug details.
3202
(Robert Collins)
3203
3204
* ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now tracks how many records have been
3205
added via a public attribute records_written. (Robert Collins)
3206
3207
* New method ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.get_recommended_page_size``.
3208
This provides a hint to users of transports as to the reasonable
3209
minimum data to read. In principle this can take latency and
3210
bandwidth into account on a per-connection basis, but for now it
3211
just has hard coded values based on the url. (e.g. http:// has a large
3212
page size, file:// has a small one.) (Robert Collins)
3213
3214
* New method on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport`` ``open_write_stream`` allows
3215
incremental addition of data to a file without requiring that all the
3216
data be buffered in memory. (Robert Collins)
3217
3218
* New methods on ``bzrlib.knit.KnitVersionedFile``:
3219
``get_data_stream(versions)``, ``insert_data_stream(stream)`` and
3220
``get_format_signature()``. These provide some infrastructure for
3221
efficiently streaming the knit data for a set of versions over the smart
3222
protocol.
3223
3224
* Knits with no annotation cache still produce correct annotations.
3225
(Aaron Bentley)
3226
3227
* Three new methods have been added to ``bzrlib.trace``:
3228
``set_verbosity_level``, ``get_verbosity_level`` and ``is_verbose``.
3229
``set_verbosity_level`` expects a numeric value: negative for quiet,
3230
zero for normal, positive for verbose. The size of the number can be
3231
used to determine just how quiet or verbose the application should be.
3232
The existing ``be_quiet`` and ``is_quiet`` routines have been
3233
integrated into this new scheme. (Ian Clatworthy)
3234
3235
* Options can now be delcared with a ``custom_callback`` parameter. If
3236
set, this routine is called after the option is processed. This feature
3237
is now used by the standard options ``verbose`` and ``quiet`` so that
3238
setting one implicitly resets the other. (Ian Clatworthy)
3239
3240
* Rather than declaring a new option from scratch in order to provide
3241
custom help, a centrally registered option can be decorated using the
3242
new ``bzrlib.Option.custom_help`` routine. In particular, this routine
3243
is useful when declaring better help for the ``verbose`` and ``quiet``
3244
standard options as the base definition of these is now more complex
3245
than before thanks to their use of a custom callback. (Ian Clatworthy)
3246
3247
* Tree._iter_changes(specific_file=[]) now iterates through no files,
3248
instead of iterating through all files. None is used to iterate through
3249
all files. (Aaron Bentley)
3250
3251
* WorkingTree.revert() now accepts None to revert all files. The use of
3252
[] to revert all files is deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)

-------------------
3257
3258
IMPROVEMENTS:
3259
3260
* Documentation is now organized into multiple directories with a level
3261
added for different languages or locales. Added the Mini Tutorial
3262
and Quick Start Summary (en) documents from the Wiki, improving the
3263
content and readability of the former. Formatted NEWS as Release Notes
3264
complete with a Table of Conents, one heading per release. Moved the
3265
Developer Guide into the main document catalog and provided a link
3266
from the developer document catalog back to the main one.

3269
3270
API CHANGES:
3271
3272
* The static convenience method ``BzrDir.create_repository``
3273
is deprecated. Callers should instead create a ``BzrDir`` instance
3274
and call ``create_repository`` on that. (Martin Pool)
3275
3276
3277
bzr 0.90rc1 2007-08-14
3278
----------------------
3279
3280
BUGFIXES:
3281
3282
* ``bzr init`` should connect to the remote location one time only. We
3283
have been connecting several times because we forget to pass around the
3284
Transport object. This modifies ``BzrDir.create_branch_convenience``,
3285
so that we can give it the Transport we already have.
3286
(John Arbash Meinel, Vincent Ladeuil, #111702)
3287
3288
* Get rid of sftp connection cache (get rid of the FTP one too).
3289
(Vincent Ladeuil, #43731)
3290
3291
* bzr branch {local|remote} remote don't try to create a working tree
3292
anymore.
3293
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112173)
3294
3295
* All identified multiple connections for a single bzr command have been
3296
fixed. See bzrlib/tests/commands directory.
3297
(Vincent Ladeuil)
3298
3299
* ``bzr rm`` now does not insist on ``--force`` to delete files that
3300
have been renamed but not otherwise modified. (Marius Kruger,
3301
#111664)
3302
3303
* ``bzr selftest --bench`` no longer emits deprecation warnings
3304
(Lukáš Lalinský)
3305
3306
* ``bzr status`` now honours FILE parameters for conflict lists
3307
(Aaron Bentley, #127606)
3308
3309
* ``bzr checkout`` now honours -r when reconstituting a working tree.
3310
It also honours -r 0. (Aaron Bentley, #127708)
3311
3312
* ``bzr add *`` no more fails on Windows if working tree contains
3313
non-ascii file names. (Kuno Meyer, #127361)
3314
3315
* allow ``easy_install bzr`` runs without fatal errors.
3316
(Alexander Belchenko, #125521)
3317
3318
* Graph._filter_candidate_lca does not raise KeyError if a candidate
3319
is eliminated just before it would normally be examined. (Aaron Bentley)
3320
3321
* SMTP connection failures produce a nice message, not a traceback.
3322
(Aaron Bentley)
3323
3324
IMPROVEMENTS:
3325
3326
* Don't show "dots" progress indicators when run non-interactively, such
3327
as from cron. (Martin Pool)
3328
3329
* ``info`` now formats locations more nicely and lists "submit" and
3330
"public" branches (Aaron Bentley)
3331
3332
* New ``pack`` command that will trigger database compression within
3333
the repository (Robert Collins)
3334
3335
* Implement ``_KnitIndex._load_data`` in a pyrex extension. The pyrex
3336
version is approximately 2-3x faster at parsing a ``.kndx`` file.
3337
Which yields a measurable improvement for commands which have to
3338
read from the repository, such as a 1s => 0.75s improvement in
3339
``bzr diff`` when there are changes to be shown. (John Arbash Meinel)
3340
3341
* Merge is now faster. Depending on the scenario, it can be more than 2x
3342
faster. (Aaron Bentley)
3343
3344
* Give a clearer warning, and allow ``python setup.py install`` to
3345
succeed even if pyrex is not available.
3346
(John Arbash Meinel)
3347
3348
* ``DirState._read_dirblocks`` now has an optional Pyrex
3349
implementation. This improves the speed of any command that has to
3350
read the entire DirState. (``diff``, ``status``, etc, improve by
3351
about 10%).
3352
``bisect_dirblocks`` has also been improved, which helps all
3353
``_get_entry`` type calls (whenever we are searching for a
3354
particular entry in the in-memory DirState).
3355
(John Arbash Meinel)
3356
3357
* ``bzr pull`` and ``bzr push`` no longer do a complete walk of the
3358
branch revision history for ui display unless -v is supplied.
3359
(Robert Collins)
3360
3361
* ``bzr log -rA..B`` output shifted to the left margin if the log only
3362
contains merge revisions. (Kent Gibson)
3363
3364
* The ``plugins`` command is now public with improved help.
3365
(Ian Clatworthy)
3366
3367
* New bundle and merge directive formats are faster to generate, and
3368
3369
* Annotate merge now works when there are local changes. (Aaron Bentley)
3370
3371
* Commit now only shows the progress in terms of directories instead of
3372
entries. (Ian Clatworthy)
3373
3374
* Fix ``KnitRepository.get_revision_graph`` to not request the graph 2
3375
times. This makes ``get_revision_graph`` 2x faster. (John Arbash
3376
Meinel)
3377
3378
* Fix ``VersionedFile.get_graph()`` to avoid using
3379
``set.difference_update(other)``, which has bad scaling when
3380
``other`` is large. This improves ``VF.get_graph([version_id])`` for
3381
a 12.5k graph from 2.9s down to 200ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
3382
3383
* The ``--lsprof-file`` option now generates output for KCacheGrind if
3384
the file starts with ``callgrind.out``. This matches the default file
3385
filtering done by KCacheGrind's Open Dialog. (Ian Clatworthy)
3386
3387
* Fix ``bzr update`` to avoid an unnecessary
3388
``branch.get_master_branch`` call, which avoids 1 extra connection
3389
to the remote server. (Partial fix for #128076, John Arbash Meinel)
3390
3391
* Log errors from the smart server in the trace file, to make debugging
3392
test failures (and live failures!) easier. (Andrew Bennetts)
3393
3394
* The HTML version of the man page has been superceded by a more
3395
comprehensive manual called the Bazaar User Reference. This manual
3396
is completed generated from the online help topics. As part of this
3397
change, limited reStructuredText is now explicitly supported in help
3398
topics and command help with 'unnatural' markup being removed prior
3399
to display by the online help or inclusion in the man page.
3400
(Ian Clatworthy)
3401
3402
* HTML documentation now use files extension ``*.html``
3403
(Alexander Belchenko)
3404
3405
* The cache of ignore definitions is now cleared in WorkingTree.unlock()
3406
so that changes to .bzrignore aren't missed. (#129694, Daniel Watkins)
3407
3408
* ``bzr selftest --strict`` fails if there are any missing features or
3409
expected test failures. (Daniel Watkins, #111914)
3410
3411
* Link to registration survey added to README. (Ian Clatworthy)
3412
3413
* Windows standalone installer show link to registration survey
3414
when installation finished. (Alexander Belchenko)
3415
3416
LIBRARY API BREAKS:
3417
3418
* Deprecated dictionary ``bzrlib.option.SHORT_OPTIONS`` removed.
3419
Options are now required to provide a help string and it must
3420
comply with the style guide by being one or more sentences with an
3421
initial capital and final period. (Martin Pool)
3422
3423
* KnitIndex.get_parents now returns tuples. (Robert Collins)
3424
3425
* Ancient unused ``Repository.text_store`` attribute has been removed.
3426
(Robert Collins)
3427
3428
* The ``bzrlib.pack`` interface has changed to use tuples of bytestrings
3429
rather than just bytestrings, making it easier to represent multiple
3430
element names. As this interface was not used by any internal facilities
3431
since it was introduced in 0.18 no API compatibility is being preserved.
3432
The serialised form of these packs is identical with 0.18 when a single
3433
element tuple is in use. (Robert Collins)
3434
3435
INTERNALS:
3436
3437
* merge now uses ``iter_changes`` to calculate changes, which makes room for
3438
future performance increases. It is also more consistent with other
3439
operations that perform comparisons, and reduces reliance on
3440
Tree.inventory. (Aaron Bentley)
3441
3442
* Refactoring of transport classes connected to a remote server.
3443
ConnectedTransport is a new class that serves as a basis for all
3444
transports needing to connect to a remote server. transport.split_url
3445
have been deprecated, use the static method on the object instead. URL
3446
tests have been refactored too.
3447
(Vincent Ladeuil)
3448
3449
* Better connection sharing for ConnectedTransport objects.
3450
transport.get_transport() now accepts a 'possible_transports' parameter.
3451
If a newly requested transport can share a connection with one of the
3452
list, it will.
3453
(Vincent Ladeuil)
3454
3455
* Most functions now accept ``bzrlib.revision.NULL_REVISION`` to indicate
3456
the null revision, and consider using ``None`` for this purpose
3457
deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)
3458
3459
* New ``index`` module with abstract index functionality. This will be
3460
used during the planned changes in the repository layer. Currently the
3461
index layer provides a graph aware immutable index, a builder for the
3462
same index type to allow creating them, and finally a composer for
3463
such indices to allow the use of many indices in a single query. The
3464
index performance is not optimised, however the API is stable to allow
3465
development on top of the index. (Robert Collins)
3466
3467
* ``bzrlib.dirstate.cmp_by_dirs`` can be used to compare two paths by
3468
their directory sections. This is equivalent to comparing
3469
``path.split('/')``, only without having to split the paths.
3470
This has a Pyrex implementation available.
3471
(John Arbash Meinel)
3472
3473
* New transport decorator 'unlistable+' which disables the list_dir
3474
functionality for testing.
3475
3476
* Deprecated ``change_entry`` in transform.py. (Ian Clatworthy)
3477
3478
* RevisionTree.get_weave is now deprecated. Tree.plan_merge is now used
3479
for performing annotate-merge. (Aaron Bentley)
3480
3481
* New EmailMessage class to create email messages. (Adeodato Simó)
3482
3483
* Unused functions on the private interface KnitIndex have been removed.
3484
(Robert Collins)
3485
3486
* New ``knit.KnitGraphIndex`` which provides a ``KnitIndex`` layered on top
3487
of a ``index.GraphIndex``. (Robert Collins)
3488
3489
* New ``knit.KnitVersionedFile.iter_parents`` method that allows querying
3490
the parents of many knit nodes at once, reducing round trips to the
3491
underlying index. (Robert Collins)
3492
3493
* Graph now has an is_ancestor method, various bits use it.
3494
(Aaron Bentley)
3495
3496
* The ``-Dhpss`` flag now includes timing information. As well as
3497
logging when a new connection is opened. (John Arbash Meinel)
3498
3499
* ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now returns an offset, length tuple to
3500
callers when inserting data, allowing generation of readv style access
3501
during pack creation, without needing a separate pass across the output
3502
pack to gather such details. (Robert Collins)
3503
3504
* ``bzrlib.pack.make_readv_reader`` allows readv based access to pack
3505
files that are stored on a transport. (Robert Collins)
3506
3507
* New ``Repository.has_same_location`` method that reports if two
3508
repository objects refer to the same repository (although with some risk
3509
of false negatives). (Andrew Bennetts)
3510
3511
* InterTree.compare now passes require_versioned on correctly.
3512
(Marius Kruger)
3513
3514
* New methods on Repository - ``start_write_group``,
3515
``commit_write_group``, ``abort_write_group`` and ``is_in_write_group`` -
3516
which provide a clean hook point for transactional Repositories - ones
3517
where all the data for a fetch or commit needs to be made atomically
3518
available in one step. This allows the write lock to remain while making
3519
a series of data insertions. (e.g. data conversion). (Robert Collins)
3520
3521
* In ``bzrlib.knit`` the internal interface has been altered to use
3522
3-tuples (index, pos, length) rather than two-tuples (pos, length) to
3523
describe where data in a knit is, allowing knits to be split into
3524
many files. (Robert Collins)
3525
3526
* ``bzrlib.knit._KnitData`` split into cache management and physical access
3527
with two access classes - ``_PackAccess`` and ``_KnitAccess`` defined.
3528
The former provides access into a .pack file, and the latter provides the
3529
current production repository form of .knit files. (Robert Collins)
3530
3531
TESTING:
3532
3533
* Remove selftest ``--clean-output``, ``--numbered-dirs`` and
3534
``--keep-output`` options, which are obsolete now that tests
3535
are done within directories in $TMPDIR. (Martin Pool)
3536
3537
* The SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable is now reset to avoid
3538
interaction with any running ssh agents. (Jelmer Vernooij, #125955)
3539
3540
* run_bzr_subprocess handles parameters the same way as run_bzr:
3541
either a string or a list of strings should be passed as the first
3542
parameter. Varargs-style parameters are deprecated. (Aaron Bentley)

BUGFIXES:
3557
3558
* Do not suppress pipe errors, etc. in non-display commands
3559
(Alexander Belchenko, #87178)
3560
3561
* Display a useful error message when the user requests to annotate
3562
a file that is not present in the specified revision.
3563
(James Westby, #122656)
3564
3565
* Commands that use status flags now have a reference to 'help
3566
status-flags'. (Daniel Watkins, #113436)
3567
3568
* Work around python-2.4.1 inhability to correctly parse the
3569
authentication header.
3570
(Vincent Ladeuil, #121889)
3571
3572
* Use exact encoding for merge directives. (Adeodato Simó, #120591)
3573
3574
* Fix tempfile permissions error in smart server tar bundling under
3575
Windows. (Martin _, #119330)
3576
3577
* Fix detection of directory entries in the inventory. (James Westby)
3578
3579
* Fix handling of http code 400: Bad Request When issuing too many ranges.
3580
(Vincent Ladeuil, #115209)
3581
3582
* Issue a CONNECT request when connecting to an https server
3583
via a proxy to enable SSL tunneling.
3584
(Vincent Ladeuil, #120678)
3585
3586
* Fix ``bzr log -r`` to support selecting merge revisions, both
3587
individually and as part of revision ranges.
3588
(Kent Gibson, #4663)
3589
3590
* Don't leave cruft behind when failing to acquire a lockdir.
3591
(Martin Pool, #109169)
3592
3593
* Don't use the '-f' strace option during tests.
3594
(Vincent Ladeuil, #102019).
3595
3596
* Warn when setting ``push_location`` to a value that will be masked by
3597
locations.conf. (Aaron Bentley, #122286)
3598
3599
* Fix commit ordering in corner case (Aaron Bentley, #94975)
3600
3601
* Make annotate behave in a non-ASCII world (Adeodato Simó).
3602
3603
IMPROVEMENTS:
3604
3605
* The --lsprof-file option now dumps a text rendering of the profiling
3606
information if the filename ends in ".txt". It will also convert the
3607
profiling information to a format suitable for KCacheGrind if the
3608
output filename ends in ".callgrind". Fixes to the lsprofcalltree
3609
conversion process by Jean Paul Calderone and Itamar were also merged.
3610
See http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree. (Ian Clatworthy)
3611
3612
* ``info`` now defaults to non-verbose mode, displaying only paths and
3613
abbreviated format info. ``info -v`` displays all the information
3614
formerly displayed by ``info``. (Aaron Bentley, Adeodato Simó)
3615
3616
* ``bzr missing`` now has better option names ``--this`` and ``--other``.
3617
(Elliot Murphy)
3618
3619
* The internal ``weave-list`` command has become ``versionedfile-list``,
3620
and now lists knits as well as weaves. (Aaron Bentley)
3621
3622
* Automatic merge base selection uses a faster algorithm that chooses
3623
better bases in criss-cross merge situations (Aaron Bentley)
3624
3625
* Progress reporting in ``commit`` has been improved. The various logical
3626
stages are now reported on as follows, namely:
3627
3628
* Collecting changes [Entry x/y] - Stage n/m
3629
* Saving data locally - Stage n/m
3630
* Uploading data to master branch - Stage n/m
3631
* Updating the working tree - Stage n/m
3632
* Running post commit hooks - Stage n/m
3633
3634
If there is no master branch, the 3rd stage is omitted and the total
3635
number of stages is adjusted accordingly.
3636
3637
Each hook that is run after commit is listed with a name (as hooks
3638
can be slow it is useful feedback).
3639
(Ian Clatworthy, Robert Collins)
3640
3641
* Various operations that are now faster due to avoiding unnecessary
3642
topological sorts. (Aaron Bentley)
3643
3644
* Make merge directives robust against broken bundles. (Aaron Bentley)
3645
3646
* The lsprof filename note is emitted via trace.note(), not standard
3647
output. (Aaron Bentley)
3648
3649
* ``bzrlib`` now exports explicit API compatibility information to assist
3650
library users and plugins. See the ``bzrlib.api`` module for details.
3651
(Robert Collins)
3652
3653
* Remove unnecessary lock probes when acquiring a lockdir.
3654
(Martin Pool)
3655
3656
* ``bzr --version`` now shows the location of the bzr log file, which
3657
is especially useful on Windows. (Martin Pool)
3658
3659
* -D now supports hooks to get debug tracing of hooks (though its currently
3660
minimal in nature). (Robert Collins)
3661
3662
* Long log format reports deltas on merge revisions.
3663
(John Arbash Meinel, Kent Gibson)
3664
3665
* Make initial push over ftp more resilient. (John Arbash Meinel)
3666
3667
* Print a summary of changes for update just like pull does.
3668
(Daniel Watkins, #113990)
3669
3670
* Add a -Dhpss option to trace smart protocol requests and responses.
3671
(Andrew Bennetts)
3672

LIBRARY API BREAKS:
3674
3675
* Testing cleanups -
3676
``bzrlib.repository.RepositoryTestProviderAdapter`` has been moved
3677

3690
``bzrlib.workingtree.WorkingTreeTestProviderAdapter`` has moved to
3691
``bzrlib.tests.workingtree_implementations``.
3692
These changes are an API break in the testing infrastructure only.
3693
(Robert Collins)
3694
3695
* Relocate TestCaseWithRepository to be more central. (Robert Collins)
3696
3697
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` will no longer perform glob expansion on
3698
win32. Callers of the function should do this and use the new
3699
``MutableTree.smart_add`` method instead. (Robert Collins)
3700
3701
* ``bzrlib.add.glob_expand_for_win32`` is now

* ``bzrlib.add.FastPath`` is now private and moved to
3705
``bzrlib.mutabletree._FastPath``. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
3706
3707
* ``LockDir.wait`` removed. (Martin Pool)
3708
3709
* The ``SmartServer`` hooks API has changed for the ``server_started`` and
3710
``server_stopped`` hooks. The first parameter is now an iterable of
3711
backing URLs rather than a single URL. This is to reflect that many
3712
URLs may map to the external URL of the server. E.g. the server interally
3713
may have a chrooted URL but also the local file:// URL will be at the
3714
same location. (Robert Collins)
3715
3716
INTERNALS:
3717
3718
* New SMTPConnection class to unify email handling. (Adeodato Simó)
3719
3720
* Fix documentation of BzrError. (Adeodato Simó)
3721
3722
* Make BzrBadParameter an internal error. (Adeodato Simó)
3723
3724
* Remove use of 'assert False' to raise an exception unconditionally.
3725
(Martin Pool)
3726
3727
* Give a cleaner error when failing to decode knit index entry.
3728
(Martin Pool)
3729
3730
* TreeConfig would mistakenly search the top level when asked for options
3731
from a section. It now respects the section argument and only
3732
searches the specified section. (James Westby)
3733
3734
* Improve ``make api-docs`` output. (John Arbash Meinel)
3735
3736
* Use os.lstat rather than os.stat for osutils.make_readonly and
3737
osutils.make_writeable. This makes the difftools plugin more
3738
robust when dangling symlinks are found. (Elliot Murphy)
3739
3740
* New ``-Dlock`` option to log (to ~/.bzr.log) information on when
3741
lockdirs are taken or released. (Martin Pool)
3742
3743
* ``bzrlib`` Hooks are now nameable using ``Hooks.name_hook``. This
3744
allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current hook can
3745
be displayed. (Robert Collins)
3746
3747
* ``Transport.get`` has had its interface made more clear for ease of use.
3748
Retrieval of a directory must now fail with either 'PathError' at open
3749
time, or raise 'ReadError' on a read. (Robert Collins)
3750
3751
* New method ``_maybe_expand_globs`` on the ``Command`` class for
3752
dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32 platform. This
3753
was moved from ``bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list``. (Robert Collins)
3754
3755
* ``bzrlib.add.smart_add`` and ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` are now
3756
deprecated in favour of ``MutableTree.smart_add``. (Robert Collins,
3757
Martin Pool)
3758
3759
* New method ``external_url`` on Transport for obtaining the url to
3760
hand to external processes. (Robert Collins)
3761
3762
* Teach windows installers to build pyrex/C extensions.
3763
(Alexander Belchenko)
3764
3765
TESTING:
3766
3767
* Removed the ``--keep-output`` option from selftest and clean up test
3768
directories as they're used. This reduces the IO load from
3769
running the test suite and cuts the time by about half.
3770
(Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
3771
3772
* Add scenarios as a public attribute on the TestAdapter classes to allow
3773
modification of the generated scenarios before adaption and easier
3774
testing. (Robert Collins)
3775
3776
* New testing support class ``TestScenarioApplier`` which multiplies
3777
out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios. (RobertCollins)
3778
3779
* Setting ``repository_to_test_repository`` on a repository_implementations
3780
test will cause it to be called during repository creation, allowing the
3781
testing of repository classes which are not based around the Format
3782
concept. For example a repository adapter can be tested in this manner,
3783
by altering the repository scenarios to include a scenario that sets this
3784
attribute during the test parameterisation in
3785
``bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations``. (Robert Collins)
3786
3787
* Clean up many of the APIs for blackbox testing of Bazaar. The standard
3788
interface is now self.run_bzr. The command to run can be passed as
3789
either a list of parameters, a string containing the command line, or
3790
(deprecated) varargs parameters. (Martin Pool)
3791
3792
* The base TestCase now isolates tests from -D parameters by clearing
3793
``debug.debug_flags`` and restores it afterwards. (Robert Collins)
3794
3795
* Add a relpath parameter to get_transport methods in test framework to
3796
avoid useless cloning.

3815
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
3816
3817
* The kind() and is_executable() APIs on the WorkingTree interface no
3818
longer implicitly (read) locks and unlocks the tree. This *might*
3819
impact some plug-ins and tools using this part of the API. If you find
3820
an issue that may be caused by this change, please let us know,
3821
particularly the plug-in/tool maintainer. If encountered, the API
3822
fix is to surround kind() and is_executable() calls with lock_read()
3823
and unlock() like so::
3824
3825
work_tree.lock_read()
3826
try:
3827
kind = work_tree.kind(...)
3828
finally:
3829
work_tree.unlock()
3830
3831
INTERNALS:
3832
* Rework of LogFormatter API to provide beginning/end of log hooks and to
3833
encapsulate the details of the revision to be logged in a LogRevision
3834
object.
3835
In long log formats, merge revision ids are only shown when --show-ids
3836
is specified, and are labelled "revision-id:", as per mainline
3837
revisions, instead of "merged:". (Kent Gibson)
3838
3839
* New ``BranchBuilder`` API which allows the construction of particular
3840
histories quickly. Useful for testing and potentially other applications
3841
too. (Robert Collins)
3842
3843
IMPROVEMENTS:
3844
3845
* There are two new help topics, working-trees and repositories that
3846
attempt to explain these concepts. (James Westby, John Arbash Meinel,
3847
Aaron Bentley)
3848
3849
* Added ``bzr log --limit`` to report a limited number of revisions.
3850
(Kent Gibson, #3659)
3851
3852
* Revert does not try to preserve file contents that were originally
3853
produced by reverting to a historical revision. (Aaron Bentley)
3854
3855
* ``bzr log --short`` now includes ``[merge]`` for revisions which
3856
have more than one parent. This is a small improvement to help
3857
understanding what changes have occurred
3858
(John Arbash Meinel, #83887)
3859
3860
* TreeTransform avoids many renames when contructing large trees,
3861
improving speed. 3.25x speedups have been observed for construction of
3862
kernel-sized-trees, and checkouts are 1.28x faster. (Aaron Bentley)
3863
3864
* Commit on large trees is now faster. In my environment, a commit of
3865
a small change to the Mozilla tree (55k files) has dropped from
3866
66 seconds to 32 seconds. For a small tree of 600 files, commit of a
3867
small change is 33% faster. (Ian Clatworthy)
3868
3869
* New --create-prefix option to bzr init, like for push. (Daniel Watkins,
3870
#56322)
3871
3872
BUGFIXES:
3873
3874
* ``bzr push`` should only connect to the remote location one time.
3875
We have been connecting 3 times because we forget to pass around
3876
the Transport object. This adds ``BzrDir.clone_on_transport()``, so
3877
that we can pass in the Transport that we already have.
3878
(John Arbash Meinel, #75721)
3879
3880
* ``DirState.set_state_from_inventory()`` needs to properly order
3881
based on split paths, not just string paths.
3882
(John Arbash Meinel, #115947)
3883
3884
* Let TestUIFactoy encode the password prompt with its own stdout.
3885
(Vincent Ladeuil, #110204)
3886
3887
* pycurl should take use the range header that takes the range hint
3888
into account.
3889
(Vincent Ladeuil, #112719)
3890
3891
* WorkingTree4.get_file_sha1 no longer raises an exception when invoked
3892
on a missing file. (Aaron Bentley, #118186)
3893
3894
* WorkingTree.remove works correctly with tree references, and when pwd is
3895
not the tree root. (Aaron Bentley)
3896
3897
* Merge no longer fails when a file is renamed in one tree and deleted
3898
in the other. (Aaron Bentley, #110279)
3899
3900
* ``revision-info`` now accepts dotted revnos, doesn't require a tree,
3901
and defaults to the last revision (Matthew Fuller, #90048)
3902
3903
* Tests no longer fail when BZR_REMOTE_PATH is set in the environment.
3904
(Daniel Watkins, #111958)
3905
3906
* ``bzr branch -r revid:foo`` can be used to branch any revision in
3907
your repository. (Previously Branch6 only supported revisions in your
3908
mainline). (John Arbash Meinel, #115343)

3911
--------------------
3912
3913
BUGFIXES:
3914
3915
* Handle when you have 2 directories with similar names, but one has a
3916
hyphen. (``'abc'`` versus ``'abc-2'``). The WT4._iter_changes
3917
iterator was using direct comparison and ``'abc/a'`` sorts after
3918
``'abc-2'``, but ``('abc', 'a')`` sorts before ``('abc-2',)``.
3919
(John Arbash Meinel, #111227)
3920
3921
* Handle when someone renames a file on disk without telling bzr.
3922
Previously we would report the first file as missing, but not show
3923
the new unknown file. (John Arbash Meinel, #111288)
3924
3925
* Avoid error when running hooks after pulling into or pushing from
3926
a branch bound to a smartserver branch. (Martin Pool, #111968)
3927
3928
IMPROVEMENTS:
3929
3930
* Move developer documentation to doc/developers/. This reduces clutter in
3931
the root of the source tree and allows HACKING to be split into multiple
3932
files. (Robert Collins, Alexander Belchenko)
3933
3934
* Clean up the ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes()`` internal loops as well as
3935
``DirState.update_entry()``. This optimizes the core logic for ``bzr
3936
diff`` and ``bzr status`` significantly improving the speed of
3937
both. (John Arbash Meinel)

3940
-----------------------
3941
3942
BUGFIXES:
3943
3944
* Handle the case when you delete a file, and then rename another file
3945
on top of it. Also handle the case of ``bzr rm --keep foo``. ``bzr
3946
status`` should show the removed file and an unknown file in its
3947
place. (John Arbash Meinel, #109993)
3948
3949
* Bundles properly read and write revision properties that have an
3950
empty value. And when the value is not ASCII.
3951
(John Arbash Meinel, #109613)
3952
3953
* Fix the bzr commit message to be in text mode.
3954
(Alexander Belchenko, #110901)
3955
3956
* Also handle when you rename a file and create a file where it used
3957
to be. (John Arbash Meinel, #110256)
3958
3959
* ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes`` should not descend into unversioned
3960
directories. (John Arbash Meinel, #110399)
3961
3962
bzr 0.16rc1 2007-04-26
3963
-----------------------
3964
3965
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
3966
3967
* ``bzr remove`` and ``bzr rm`` will now remove the working file, if
3968
it could be recovered again.
3969
This has been done for consistency with svn and the unix rm command.
3970
The old ``remove`` behaviour has been retained in the new option
3971
``bzr remove --keep``, which will just stop versioning the file,
3972
but not delete it.
3973
``bzr remove --force`` have been added which will always delete the
3974
files.
3975
``bzr remove`` is also more verbose.
3976
(Marius Kruger, #82602)
3977
3978
IMPROVEMENTS:
3979
3980
* Merge directives can now be supplied as input to `merge` and `pull`,
3981
like bundles can. (Aaron Bentley)
3982
3983
* Sending the SIGQUIT signal to bzr, which can be done on Unix by
3984
pressing Control-Backslash, drops bzr into a debugger. Type ``'c'``
3985
to continue. This can be disabled by setting the environment variable
3986
``BZR_SIGQUIT_PDB=0``. (Martin Pool)
3987
3988
* selftest now supports --list-only to list tests instead of running
3989
them. (Ian Clatworthy)
3990
3991
* selftest now supports --exclude PATTERN (or -x PATTERN) to exclude
3992
tests with names that match that regular expression.
3993
(Ian Clatworthy, #102679)
3994
3995
* selftest now supports --randomize SEED to run tests in a random order.
3996
SEED is typically the value 'now' meaning 'use the current time'.
3997
(Ian Clatworthy, #102686)
3998
3999
* New option ``--fixes`` to commit, which stores bug fixing annotations as
4000
revision properties. Built-in support for Launchpad, Debian, Trac and
4001
Bugzilla bug trackers. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge, Robert Collins)
4002
4003
* New API, ``bzrlib.bugtracker.tracker_registry``, for adding support for
4004
other bug trackers to ``fixes``. (Jonathan Lange, James Henstridge,
4005
Robert Collins)
4006
4007
* ``selftest`` has new short options ``-f`` and ``-1``. (Martin
4008
Pool)
4009
4010
* ``bzrlib.tsort.MergeSorter`` optimizations. Change the inner loop
4011
into using local variables instead of going through ``self._var``.
4012
Improves the time to ``merge_sort`` a 10k revision graph by
4013
approximately 40% (~700->400ms). (John Arbash Meinel)
4014
4015
* ``make docs`` now creates a man page at ``man1/bzr.1`` fixing bug 107388.
4016
(Robert Collins)
4017
4018
* ``bzr help`` now provides cross references to other help topics using
4019
the _see_also facility on command classes. Likewise the bzr_man
4020
documentation, and the bzr.1 man page also include this information.
4021
(Robert Collins)
4022
4023
* Tags are now included in logs, that use the long log formatter.
4024
(Erik Bågfors, Alexander Belchenko)
4025
4026
* ``bzr help`` provides a clearer message when a help topic cannot be
4027
found. (Robert Collins, #107656)
4028
4029
* ``bzr help`` now accepts optional prefixes for command help. The help
4030
for all commands can now be found at ``bzr help commands/COMMANDNAME``
4031
as well as ``bzr help COMMANDNAME`` (which only works for commands
4032
where the name is not the same as a more general help topic).
4033
(Robert Collins)
4034
4035
* ``bzr help PLUGINNAME`` will now return the module docstring from the
4036
plugin PLUGINNAME. (Robert Collins, #50408)
4037
4038
* New help topic ``urlspec`` which lists the availables transports.
4039
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
4040
4041
* doc/server.txt updated to document the default bzr:// port
4042
and also update the blurb about the hpss' current status.
4043
(Robert Collins, #107125).
4044
4045
* ``bzr serve`` now listens on interface 0.0.0.0 by default, making it
4046
serve out to the local LAN (and anyone in the world that can reach the
4047
machine running ``bzr serve``. (Robert Collins, #98918)
4048
4049
* A new smart server protocol version has been added. It prefixes requests
4050
and responses with an explicit version identifier so that future protocol
4051
revisions can be dealt with gracefully. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
4052
4053
* The bzr protocol version 2 indicates success or failure in every response
4054
without depending on particular commands encoding that consistently,
4055
allowing future client refactorings to be much more robust about error
4056
handling. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool, Andrew Bennetts)
4057
4058
* The smart protocol over HTTP client has been changed to always post to the
4059
same ``.bzr/smart`` URL under the original location when it can. This allows
4060
HTTP servers to only have to pass URLs ending in .bzr/smart to the smart
4061
server handler, and not arbitrary ``.bzr/*/smart`` URLs. (Andrew Bennetts)
4062
4063
* digest authentication is now supported for proxies and HTTP by the urllib
4064
based http implementation. Tested against Apache 2.0.55 and Squid
4065
2.6.5. Basic and digest authentication are handled coherently for HTTP
4066
and proxy: if the user is provided in the url (bzr command line for HTTP,
4067
proxy environment variables for proxies), the password is prompted for
4068
(only once). If the password is provided, it is taken into account. Once
4069
the first authentication is successful, all further authentication
4070
roundtrips are avoided by preventively setting the right authentication
4071
header(s).
4072
(Vincent Ladeuil).
4073
4074
INTERNALS:
4075
4076
* bzrlib API compatability with 0.8 has been dropped, cleaning up some
4077
code paths. (Robert Collins)
4078
4079
* Change the format of chroot urls so that they can be safely manipulated
4080
by generic url utilities without causing the resulting urls to have
4081
escaped the chroot. A side effect of this is that creating a chroot
4082
requires an explicit action using a ChrootServer.
4083
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
4084
4085
* Deprecate ``Branch.get_root_id()`` because branches don't have root ids,
4086
rather than fixing bug #96847. (Aaron Bentley)
4087
4088
* ``WorkingTree.apply_inventory_delta`` provides a better alternative to
4089
``WorkingTree._write_inventory``. (Aaron Bentley)
4090
4091
* Convenience method ``TestCase.expectFailure`` ensures that known failures
4092
do not silently pass. (Aaron Bentley)
4093
4094
* ``Transport.local_abspath`` now raises ``NotLocalUrl`` rather than
4095
``TransportNotPossible``. (Martin Pool, Ian Clatworthy)
4096
4097
* New SmartServer hooks facility. There are two initial hooks documented
4098
in ``bzrlib.transport.smart.SmartServerHooks``. The two initial hooks allow
4099
plugins to execute code upon server startup and shutdown.
4100
(Robert Collins).
4101
4102
* SmartServer in standalone mode will now close its listening socket
4103
when it stops, rather than waiting for garbage collection. This primarily
4104
fixes test suite hangs when a test tries to connect to a shutdown server.
4105
It may also help improve behaviour when dealing with a server running
4106
on a specific port (rather than dynamically assigned ports).
4107
(Robert Collins)
4108
4109
* Move most SmartServer code into a new package, bzrlib/smart.
4110
bzrlib/transport/remote.py contains just the Transport classes that used
4111
to be in bzrlib/transport/smart.py. (Andrew Bennetts)
4112
4113
* urllib http implementation avoid roundtrips associated with
4114
401 (and 407) errors once the authentication succeeds.
4115
(Vincent Ladeuil).
4116
4117
* urlib http now supports querying the user for a proxy password if
4118
needed. Realm is shown in the prompt for both HTTP and proxy
4119
authentication when the user is required to type a password.
4120
(Vincent Ladeuil).
4121
4122
* Renamed SmartTransport (and subclasses like SmartTCPTransport) to
4123
RemoteTransport (and subclasses to RemoteTCPTransport, etc). This is more
4124
consistent with its new home in ``bzrlib/transport/remote.py``, and because
4125
it's not really a "smart" transport, just one that does file operations
4126
via remote procedure calls. (Andrew Bennetts)
4127
4128
* The ``lock_write`` method of ``LockableFiles``, ``Repository`` and
4129
``Branch`` now accept a ``token`` keyword argument, so that separate
4130
instances of those objects can share a lock if it has the right token.
4131
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
4132
4133
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on ``BzrDir`` allows the detection of
4134
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
4135
4136
* The Repository API ``make_working_trees`` is now permitted to return
4137
False when ``set_make_working_trees`` is not implemented - previously
4138
an unimplemented ``set_make_working_trees`` implied the result True
4139
from ``make_working_trees``. This has been changed to accomodate the
4140
smart server, where it does not make sense (at this point) to ever
4141
make working trees by default. (Robert Collins)
4142
4143
* Command objects can now declare related help topics by having _see_also
4144
set to a list of related topic. (Robert Collins)
4145
4146
* ``bzrlib.help`` now delegates to the Command class for Command specific
4147
help. (Robert Collins)
4148
4149
* New class ``TransportListRegistry``, derived from the Registry class, which
4150
simplifies tracking the available Transports. (Goffredo Baroncelli)
4151
4152
* New function ``Branch.get_revision_id_to_revno_map`` which will
4153
return a dictionary mapping revision ids to dotted revnos. Since
4154
dotted revnos are defined in the context of the branch tip, it makes
4155
sense to generate them from a ``Branch`` object.
4156
(John Arbash Meinel)
4157
4158
* Fix the 'Unprintable error' message display to use the repr of the
4159
exception that prevented printing the error because the str value
4160
for it is often not useful in debugging (e.g. KeyError('foo') has a
4161
str() of 'foo' but a repr of 'KeyError('foo')' which is much more
4162
useful. (Robert Collins)
4163
4164
* ``urlutils.normalize_url`` now unescapes unreserved characters, such as "~".
4165
(Andrew Bennetts)
4166
4167
BUGFIXES:
4168
4169
* Don't fail bundle selftest if email has 'two' embedded.
4170
(Ian Clatworthy, #98510)
4171
4172
* Remove ``--verbose`` from ``bzr bundle``. It didn't work anyway.
4173
(Robert Widhopf-Fenk, #98591)
4174
4175
* Remove ``--basis`` from the checkout/branch commands - it didn't work
4176
properly and is no longer beneficial.
4177
(Robert Collins, #53675, #43486)
4178
4179
* Don't produce encoding error when adding duplicate files.
4180
(Aaron Bentley)
4181
4182
* Fix ``bzr log <file>`` so it only logs the revisions that changed
4183
the file, and does it faster.
4184
(Kent Gibson, John Arbash Meinel, #51980, #69477)
4185
4186
* Fix ``InterDirstateTre._iter_changes`` to handle when we come across
4187
an empty versioned directory, which now has files in it.
4188
(John Arbash Meinel, #104257)
4189
4190
* Teach ``common_ancestor`` to shortcut when the tip of one branch is
4191
inside the ancestry of the other. Saves a lot of graph processing
4192
(with an ancestry of 16k revisions, ``bzr merge ../already-merged``
4193
changes from 2m10s to 13s). (John Arbash Meinel, #103757)
4194
4195
* Fix ``show_diff_trees`` to handle the case when a file is modified,
4196
and the containing directory is renamed. (The file path is different
4197
in this versus base, but it isn't marked as a rename).
4198
(John Arbash Meinel, #103870)
4199
4200
* FTP now works even when the FTP server does not support atomic rename.
4201
(Aaron Bentley, #89436)
4202
4203
* Correct handling in bundles and merge directives of timezones with
4204
that are not an integer number of hours offset from UTC. Always
4205
represent the epoch time in UTC to avoid problems with formatting
4206
earlier times on win32. (Martin Pool, Alexander Belchenko, John
4207
Arbash Meinel)
4208
4209
* Typo in the help for ``register-branch`` fixed. (Robert Collins, #96770)
4210
4211
* "dirstate" and "dirstate-tags" formats now produce branches compatible
4212
with old versions of bzr. (Aaron Bentley, #107168))
4213
4214
* Handle moving a directory when children have been added, removed,
4215
and renamed. (John Arbash Meinel, #105479)
4216
4217
* Don't preventively use basic authentication for proxy before receiving a
4218
407 error. Otherwise people willing to use other authentication schemes
4219
may expose their password in the clear (or nearly). This add one
4220
roundtrip in case basic authentication should be used, but plug the
4221
security hole.
4222
(Vincent Ladeuil)
4223
4224
* Handle http and proxy digest authentication.
4225
(Vincent Ladeuil, #94034).
4226
4227
TESTING:
4228
4229
* Added ``bzrlib.strace.strace`` which will strace a single callable and
4230
return a StraceResult object which contains just the syscalls involved
4231
in running it. (Robert Collins)
4232
4233
* New test method ``reduceLockdirTimeout`` to drop the default (ui-centric)
4234
default time down to one suitable for tests. (Andrew Bennetts)
4235
4236
* Add new ``vfs_transport_factory`` attribute on tests which provides the
4237
common vfs backing for both the readonly and readwrite transports.
4238
This allows the RemoteObject tests to back onto local disk or memory,
4239
and use the existing ``transport_server`` attribute all tests know about
4240
to be the smart server transport. This in turn allows tests to
4241
differentiate between 'transport to access the branch', and
4242
'transport which is a VFS' - which matters in Remote* tests.
4243
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
4244
4245
* The ``make_branch_and_tree`` method for tests will now create a
4246
lightweight checkout for the tree if the ``vfs_transport_factory`` is not
4247
a LocalURLServer. (Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
4248
4249
* Branch implementation tests have been audited to ensure that all urls
4250
passed to Branch APIs use proper urls, except when local-disk paths
4251
are intended. This is so that tests correctly access the test transport
4252
which is often not equivalent to local disk in Remote* tests. As part
4253
of this many tests were adjusted to remove dependencies on local disk
4254
access.
4255
(Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)
4256
4257
* Mark bzrlib.tests and bzrlib.tests.TestUtil as providing assertFOO helper
4258
functions by adding a ``__unittest`` global attribute. (Robert Collins,
4259
Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool, Jonathan Lange)
4260
4261
* Refactored proxy and authentication handling to simplify the
4262
implementation of new auth schemes for both http and proxy.

* Handle incompatible repositories as a user issue when fetching.
4271
(Aaron Bentley)
4272
4273

4278
-----------------------
4279
4280
CHANGES:
4281
4282
* A warning is now displayed when opening working trees in older
4283
formats, to encourage people to upgrade to WorkingTreeFormat4.
4284
(Martin Pool)
4285
4286
IMPROVEMENTS:
4287
4288
* HTTP redirections are now taken into account when a branch (or a
4289
bundle) is accessed for the first time. A message is issued at each
4290
redirection to inform the user. In the past, http redirections were
4291
silently followed for each request which significantly degraded the
4292
performances. The http redirections are not followed anymore by
4293
default, instead a RedirectRequested exception is raised. For bzrlib
4294
users needing to follow http redirections anyway,
4295
``bzrlib.transport.do_catching_redirections`` provide an easy transition
4296
path. (vila)
4297
4298
INTERNALS:
4299
4300
* Added ``ReadLock.temporary_write_lock()`` to allow upgrading an OS read
4301
lock to an OS write lock. Linux can do this without unlocking, Win32
4302
needs to unlock in between. (John Arbash Meinel)
4303
4304
* New parameter ``recommend_upgrade`` to ``BzrDir.open_workingtree``
4305
to silence (when false) warnings about opening old formats.
4306
(Martin Pool)
4307
4308
* Fix minor performance regression with bzr-0.15 on pre-dirstate
4309
trees. (We were reading the working inventory too many times).
4310
(John Arbash Meinel)
4311
4312
* Remove ``Branch.get_transaction()`` in favour of a simple cache of
4313
``revision_history``. Branch subclasses should override
4314
``_gen_revision_history`` rather than ``revision_history`` to make use of
4315
this cache, and call ``_clear_revision_history_cache`` and
4316
``_cache_revision_history`` at appropriate times. (Andrew Bennetts)
4317
4318
BUGFIXES:
4319
4320
* Take ``smtp_server`` from user config into account.
4321
(vila, #92195)
4322
4323
* Restore Unicode filename handling for versioned and unversioned files.
4324
(John Arbash Meinel, #92608)
4325
4326
* Don't fail during ``bzr commit`` if a file is marked removed, and
4327
the containing directory is auto-removed. (John Arbash Meinel, #93681)
4328
4329
* ``bzr status FILENAME`` failed on Windows because of an uncommon
4330
errno. (``ERROR_DIRECTORY == 267 != ENOTDIR``).
4331
(Wouter van Heyst, John Arbash Meinel, #90819)
4332
4333
* ``bzr checkout source`` should create a local branch in the same
4334
format as source. (John Arbash Meinel, #93854)
4335
4336
* ``bzr commit`` with a kind change was failing to update the
4337
last-changed-revision for directories. The
4338
InventoryDirectory._unchanged only looked at the ``parent_id`` and name,
4339
ignoring the fact that the kind could have changed, too.
4340
(John Arbash Meinel, #90111)
4341
4342
* ``bzr mv dir/subdir other`` was incorrectly updating files inside
4343
the directory. So that there was a chance it would break commit,
4344
etc. (John Arbash Meinel, #94037)
4345
4346
* Correctly handles mutiple permanent http redirections.

bzr 0.15rc2 2007-03-14
4350
-----------------------
4351
4352
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
4353
4354
* Release 0.15rc2 of bzr changes the ``bzr init-repo`` command to
4355
default to ``--trees`` instead of ``--no-trees``.
4356
Existing shared repositories are not affected.
4357
4358
IMPROVEMENTS:
4359
4360
* New ``merge-directive`` command to generate machine- and human-readable
4361
merge requests. (Aaron Bentley)
4362
4363
* New ``submit:`` revision specifier makes it easy to diff against the
4364
common ancestor with the submit location (Aaron Bentley)
4365
4366
* Added support for Putty's SSH implementation. (Dmitry Vasiliev)
4367
4368
* Added ``bzr status --versioned`` to report only versioned files,
4369
not unknowns. (Kent Gibson)
4370
4371
* Merge now autodetects the correct line-ending style for its conflict
4372
markers. (Aaron Bentley)
4373
4374
INTERNALS:
4375
4376
* Refactored SSH vendor registration into SSHVendorManager class.
4377
(Dmitry Vasiliev)
4378
4379
BUGFIXES:
4380
4381
* New ``--numbered-dirs`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to use
4382
numbered dirs for TestCaseInTempDir. This is default behavior
4383
on Windows. Anyone can force named dirs on Windows
4384
with ``--no-numbered-dirs``. (Alexander Belchenko)
4385
4386
* Fix ``RevisionSpec_revid`` to handle the Unicode strings passed in
4387
from the command line. (Marien Zwart, #90501)
4388
4389
* Fix ``TreeTransform._iter_changes`` when both the source and
4390
destination are missing. (Aaron Bentley, #88842)
4391
4392
* Fix commit of merges with symlinks in dirstate trees.
4393
(Marien Zwart)
4394
4395
* Switch the ``bzr init-repo`` default from --no-trees to --trees.
4396
(Wouter van Heyst, #53483)

4399
bzr 0.15rc1 2007-03-07
4400
-----------------------
4401
4402
SURPRISES:
4403
4404
* The default disk format has changed. Please run 'bzr upgrade' in your
4405
working trees to upgrade. This new default is compatible for network
4406
operations, but not for local operations. That is, if you have two
4407
versions of bzr installed locally, after upgrading you can only use the
4408
bzr 0.15 version. This new default does not enable tags or nested-trees
4409
as they are incompatible with bzr versions before 0.15 over the network.
4410
4411
* For users of bzrlib: Two major changes have been made to the working tree
4412
api in bzrlib. The first is that many methods and attributes, including
4413
the inventory attribute, are no longer valid for use until one of
4414
``lock_read``/``lock_write``/``lock_tree_write`` has been called,
4415
and become invalid again after unlock is called. This has been done
4416
to improve performance and correctness as part of the dirstate
4417
development.
4418
(Robert Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
4419
4420
* For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
4421
readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
4422
its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
4423
unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
4424
format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
4425
cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
4426
combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API. (Robert
4427
Collins, John A Meinel, Martin Pool, and others).
4428
4429
IMPROVEMENTS:
4430
4431
* Support for OS Windows 98. Also .bzr.log on any windows system
4432
saved in My Documents folder. (Alexander Belchenko)
4433
4434
* ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
4435
In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
4436
exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
4437
already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
4438
does exist.
4439
A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
4440
exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
4441
and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
4442
will only update the Bazaar identifier.
4443
(Steffen Eichenberg, Marius Kruger)
4444
4445
* ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
4446
(Aaron Bentley)
4447
4448
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
4449
(Aaron Bentley)
4450
4451
* ``bzr pull --overwrite`` will now correctly overwrite checkouts.
4452
(Robert Collins)
4453
4454
* Files are now allowed to change kind (e.g. from file to symlink).
4455
Supported by ``commit``, ``revert`` and ``status``
4456
(Aaron Bentley)
4457
4458
* ``inventory`` and ``unknowns`` hidden in favour of ``ls``
4459
(Aaron Bentley)
4460
4461
* ``bzr help checkouts`` descibes what checkouts are and some possible
4462
uses of them. (James Westby, Aaron Bentley)
4463
4464
* A new ``-d`` option to push, pull and merge overrides the default
4465
directory. (Martin Pool)
4466
4467
* Branch format 6: smaller, and potentially faster than format 5. Supports
4468
``append_history_only`` mode, where the log view and revnos do not change,
4469
except by being added to. Stores policy settings in
4470
".bzr/branch/branch.conf".
4471
4472
* ``append_only`` branches: Format 6 branches may be configured so that log
4473
view and revnos are always consistent. Either create the branch using
4474
"bzr init --append-revisions-only" or edit the config file as descriped
4475
in docs/configuration.txt.
4476
4477
* rebind: Format 6 branches retain the last-used bind location, so if you
4478
"bzr unbind", you can "bzr bind" to bind to the previously-selected
4479
bind location.
4480
4481
* Builtin tags support, created and deleted by the ``tag`` command and
4482
stored in the branch. Tags can be accessed with the revisionspec
4483
``-rtag:``, and listed with ``bzr tags``. Tags are not versioned
4484
at present. Tags require a network incompatible upgrade. To perform this
4485
upgrade, run ``bzr upgrade --dirstate-tags`` in your branch and
4486
repositories. (Martin Pool)
4487
4488
* The ``bzr://`` transport now has a well-known port number, 4155,
4489
which it will use by default. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
4490
4491
* Bazaar now looks for user-installed plugins before looking for site-wide
4492
plugins. (Jonathan Lange)
4493
4494
* ``bzr resolve`` now detects and marks resolved text conflicts.
4495
(Aaron Bentley)
4496
4497
INTERNALS:
4498
4499
* Internally revision ids and file ids are now passed around as utf-8
4500
bytestrings, rather than treating them as Unicode strings. This has
4501
performance benefits for Knits, since we no longer need to decode the
4502
revision id for each line of content, nor for each entry in the index.
4503
This will also help with the future dirstate format.
4504
(John Arbash Meinel)
4505
4506
* Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
4507
versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
4508
(Aaron Bentley)
4509
4510
* Minor performance improvement by not creating a ProgressBar for
4511
every KnitIndex we create. (about 90ms for a bzr.dev tree)
4512
(John Arbash Meinel)
4513
4514
* New easier to use Branch hooks facility. There are five initial hooks,
4515
all documented in bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks.__init__ - ``'set_rh'``,
4516
``'post_push'``, ``'post_pull'``, ``'post_commit'``,
4517
``'post_uncommit'``. These hooks fire after the matching operation
4518
on a branch has taken place, and were originally added for the
4519
branchrss plugin. (Robert Collins)
4520
4521
* New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
4522
branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
4523
level command ``push``. (Robert Collins).
4524
4525
* Add a new method ``Tree.revision_tree`` which allows access to cached
4526
trees for arbitrary revisions. This allows the in development dirstate
4527
tree format to provide access to the callers to cached copies of
4528
inventory data which are cheaper to access than inventories from the
4529
repository.
4530
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
4531
4532
* New ``Branch.last_revision_info`` method, this is being done to allow
4533
optimization of requests for both the number of revisions and the last
4534
revision of a branch with smartservers and potentially future branch
4535
formats. (Wouter van Heyst, Robert Collins)
4536
4537
* Allow ``'import bzrlib.plugins.NAME'`` to work when the plugin NAME has not
4538
yet been loaded by ``load_plugins()``. This allows plugins to depend on each
4539
other for code reuse without requiring users to perform file-renaming
4540
gymnastics. (Robert Collins)
4541
4542
* New Repository method ``'gather_stats'`` for statistic data collection.
4543
This is expected to grow to cover a number of related uses mainly
4544
related to bzr info. (Robert Collins)
4545
4546
* Log formatters are now managed with a registry.
4547
``log.register_formatter`` continues to work, but callers accessing
4548
the FORMATTERS dictionary directly will not.
4549
4550
* Allow a start message to be passed to the ``edit_commit_message``
4551
function. This will be placed in the message offered to the user
4552
for editing above the separator. It allows a template commit message
4553
to be used more easily. (James Westby)
4554
4555
* ``GPGStrategy.sign()`` will now raise ``BzrBadParameterUnicode`` if
4556
you pass a Unicode string rather than an 8-bit string. Callers need
4557
to be updated to encode first. (John Arbash Meinel)
4558
4559
* Branch.push, pull, merge now return Result objects with information
4560
about what happened, rather than a scattering of various methods. These
4561
are also passed to the post hooks. (Martin Pool)
4562
4563
* File formats and architecture is in place for managing a forest of trees
4564
in bzr, and splitting up existing trees into smaller subtrees, and
4565
finally joining trees to make a larger tree. This is the first iteration
4566
of this support, and the user-facing aspects still require substantial
4567
work. If you wish to experiment with it, use ``bzr upgrade
4568
--dirstate-with-subtree`` in your working trees and repositories.
4569
You can use the hidden commands ``split`` and ``join`` and to create
4570
and manipulate nested trees, but please consider using the nested-trees
4571
branch, which contains substantial UI improvements, instead.
4572
http://code.aaronbentley.com/bzr/bzrrepo/nested-trees/
4573
(Aaron Bentley, Martin Pool, Robert Collins).
4574
4575
BUGFIXES:
4576
4577
* ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
4578
branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
4579
(John Arbash Meinel, #82158)
4580
4581
* Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
4582
(Aaron Bentley)
4583
4584
* ``bzr push`` can resume a push that was canceled before it finished.
4585
Also, it can push even if the target directory exists if you supply
4586
the ``--use-existing-dir`` flag.
4587
(John Arbash Meinel, #30576, #45504)
4588
4589
* Fix http proxy authentication when user and an optional
4590
password appears in the ``*_proxy`` vars. (Vincent Ladeuil,
4591
#83954).
4592
4593
* ``bzr log branch/file`` works for local treeless branches
4594
(Aaron Bentley, #84247)
4595
4596
* Fix problem with UNC paths on Windows 98. (Alexander Belchenko, #84728)

* Searching location of CA bundle for PyCurl in env variable
4599
(``CURL_CA_BUNDLE``), and on win32 along the PATH.
4600
(Alexander Belchenko, #82086)
4601
4602
* ``bzr init`` works with unicode argument LOCATION.
4603
(Alexander Belchenko, #85599)

* Fix bzrtools shelve command for removed lines beginning with "--"
4617
(Johan Dahlberg, #75577)
4618
4619
TESTING:
4620
4621
* New ``--first`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to run specified tests
4622
before the rest of the suite. (Martin Pool)

--------------------
4627
4628
IMPROVEMENTS:
4629
4630
* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options. (Aaron Bentley)
4631
4632
BUG FIXES:
4633
4634
* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
4635
available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
4636
(John Arbash Meinel, #80330)
4637
4638
* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
4639
working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
4640
it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)

4643
bzr 0.14rc1 2007-01-16
4644
-----------------------
4645
4646
IMPROVEMENTS:
4647
4648
* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
4649
protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
4650
server, then you can write over the http connection.
4651
(Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
4652
4653
* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
4654
(Marius Kruger)
4655
4656
* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
4657
the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
4658
(and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)
4659
4660
* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
4661
succeed. (Aaron Bentley)
4662
4663
* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
4664
(Aaron Bentley)
4665
4666
* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
4667
of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
4668
off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
4669
of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
4670
filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
4671
calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)
4672
4673
* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
4674
inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
4675
should enable you to do::
4676
4677
[/home/user/project]
4678
push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
4679
push_location:policy = appendpath
4680
4681
And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
4682
automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
4683
(James Henstridge)
4684
4685
* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
4686
for each file. For example::
4687
4688
$ bzr status --short
4689
A foo
4690
A bar
4691
D baz
4692
? wooley
4693
4694
* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
4695
directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)
4696
4697
* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)
4698
4699
* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
4700
local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)
4701
4702
* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)
4703
4704
INTERNALS:
4705
4706
* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
4707
help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
4708
lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
4709
improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)
4710
4711
* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
4712
resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
4713
preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)
4714
4715
* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows. (Vincent Ladeuil)
4716
4717
* When ``encoding_type`` attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
4718
force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
4719
keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
4720
(Alexander Belchenko)
4721
4722
* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared. (Martin
4723
Pool)
4724
4725
* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
4726
that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)
4727
4728
* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)
4729
4730
BUG FIXES:
4731
4732
* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
4733
direction. (John Arbash Meinel)
4734
4735
* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
4736
revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
4737
supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
4738
``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
4739
revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)
4740
4741
* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. ``\HOST\path``.
4742
(Alexander Belchenko, #57869)
4743
4744
* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
4745
line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)
4746
4747
* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
4748
matcher.
4749
(Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)
4750
4751
* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
4752
the test suite to test more cases. Also detect http error code 416
4753
which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
4754
robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
4755
short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)
4756
4757
* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
4758
proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
4759
anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
4760
problem. (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)
4761
4762
* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
4763
(Aaron Bentley, #76229)
4764
4765
* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
4766
lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)
4767
4768
* Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
4769
(Wouter van Heyst, #31663)
4770
4771
* Allow plugins import from zip archives.

4783
IMPROVEMENTS:
4784
4785
* New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
4786
tree from a branch.
4787
(Daniel Silverstone)
4788
4789
* urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
4790
operations are substantially faster.
4791
(Vincent Ladeuil, #53654)
4792
4793
* ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
4794
tree from some other url. For example:
4795
``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
4796
(Daniel Silverstone)
4797
4798
* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
4799
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
4800
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
4801
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)
4802
4803
* WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server. See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
4804
(Andrew Bennetts)
4805
4806
* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
4807
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
4808
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
4809
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
4810
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
4811
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)
4812
4813
INTERNALS:
4814
4815
* New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
4816
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
4817
(Martin Pool)
4818
4819
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
4820
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
4821
(John Arbash Meinel)
4822
4823
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
4824
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
4825
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
4826
(John Arbash Meinel)
4827
4828
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
4829
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
4830
4831
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on 'BzrDir' allows the detection of
4832
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
4833
4834
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
4835
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew
4836
Bennetts)
4837
4838
BUG FIXES:
4839
4840
* Now ``_KnitIndex`` properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
4841
And optimize the knit index parsing code.
4842
(Dmitry Vasiliev, John Arbash Meinel)
4843
4844
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
4845
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
4846
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
4847
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
4848
4849
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
4850
4851
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
4852
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
4853
4854
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
4855
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
4856
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
4857
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
4858
4859
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
4860
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
4861
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
4862
4863
* ``_KnitIndex.add_versions()`` dictionary compresses revision ids as they
4864
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
4865
them as full references rather than integers.
4866
(John Arbash Meinel, #64789)
4867
4868
* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
4869
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)
4870
4871
* ``bzr ignore`` takes multiple arguments. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #29488)
4872
4873
* mv correctly handles paths that traverse symlinks.
4874
(Aaron Bentley, #66964)
4875
4876
* Give nicer looking error messages when failing to connect over ssh.
4877
(John Arbash Meinel, #49172)
4878
4879
* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
4880
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
4881
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
4882
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
4883
4884
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
4885
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
4886
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
4887
4888
* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
4889
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
4890
4891
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
4892
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
4893
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
4894
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.
4895
(Cheuksan Edward Wang, #30190)
4896
4897
TESTING:
4898
4899
* TestingHTTPRequestHandler really handles the Range header
4900
(previously it was ignoring it and returning the whole file,).

4903
--------------------
4904
4905
INTERNALS:
4906
4907
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,

4911
bzr 0.12rc1 2006-10-23
4912
-----------------------
4913
4914
IMPROVEMENTS:
4915
4916
* ``bzr log`` now shows dotted-decimal revision numbers for all revisions,
4917
rather than just showing a decimal revision number for revisions on the
4918
mainline. These revision numbers are not yet accepted as input into bzr
4919
commands such as log, diff etc. (Robert Collins)
4920
4921
* revisions can now be specified using dotted-decimal revision numbers.
4922
For instance, ``bzr diff -r 1.2.1..1.2.3``. (Robert Collins)
4923
4924
* ``bzr help commands`` output is now shorter (Aaron Bentley)
4925
4926
* ``bzr`` now uses lazy importing to reduce the startup time. This has
4927
a moderate effect on lots of actions, especially ones that have
4928
little to do. For example ``bzr rocks`` time is down to 116ms from
4929
283ms. (John Arbash Meinel)
4930
4931
* New Registry class to provide name-to-object registry-like support,
4932
for example for schemes where plugins can register new classes to
4933
do certain tasks (e.g. log formatters). Also provides lazy registration
4934
to allow modules to be loaded on request.
4935
(John Arbash Meinel, Adeodato Simó)
4936
4937
API INCOMPATABILITY:
4938
4939
* LogFormatter subclasses show now expect the 'revno' parameter to
4940
show() to be a string rather than an int. (Robert Collins)
4941
4942
INTERNALS:
4943
4944
* ``TestCase.run_bzr``, ``run_bzr_captured``, and ``run_bzr_subprocess``
4945
can take a ``working_dir='foo'`` parameter, which will change directory
4946
for the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
4947
4948
* ``bzrlib.lazy_regex.lazy_compile`` can be used to create a proxy
4949
around a regex, which defers compilation until first use.
4950
(John Arbash Meinel)
4951
4952
* ``TestCase.run_bzr_subprocess`` defaults to supplying the
4953
``--no-plugins`` parameter to ensure test reproducability, and avoid
4954
problems with system-wide installed plugins. (John Arbash Meinel)
4955
4956
* Unique tree root ids are now supported. Newly created trees still
4957
use the common root id for compatibility with bzr versions before 0.12.
4958
(Aaron Bentley)
4959
4960
* ``WorkingTree.set_root_id(None)`` is now deprecated. Please
4961
pass in ``inventory.ROOT_ID`` if you want the default root id value.
4962
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
4963
4964
* New method ``WorkingTree.flush()`` which will write the current memory
4965
inventory out to disk. At the same time, ``read_working_inventory`` will
4966
no longer trash the current tree inventory if it has been modified within
4967
the current lock, and the tree will now ``flush()`` automatically on
4968
``unlock()``. ``WorkingTree.set_root_id()`` has been updated to take
4969
advantage of this functionality. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
4970
4971
* ``bzrlib.tsort.merge_sorted`` now accepts ``generate_revnos``. This
4972
parameter will cause it to add another column to its output, which
4973
contains the dotted-decimal revno for each revision, as a tuple.
4974
(Robert Collins)
4975
4976
* ``LogFormatter.show_merge`` is deprecated in favour of
4977
``LogFormatter.show_merge_revno``. (Robert Collins)
4978
4979
BUG FIXES:
4980
4981
* Avoid circular imports by creating a deprecated function for
4982
``bzrlib.tree.RevisionTree``. Callers should have been using
4983
``bzrlib.revisontree.RevisionTree`` anyway. (John Arbash Meinel,
4984
#63360, #66349)
4985
4986
* Don't use ``socket.MSG_WAITALL`` as it doesn't exist on all
4987
platforms. (Martin Pool, #66356)
4988
4989
* Don't require ``Content-Type`` in range responses. Assume they are a
4990
single range if ``Content-Type`` does not exist.
4991
(John Arbash Meinel, #62473)
4992
4993
* bzr branch/pull no longer complain about progress bar cleanup when
4994
interrupted during fetch. (Aaron Bentley, #54000)
4995
4996
* ``WorkingTree.set_parent_trees()`` uses the trees to directly write
4997
the basis inventory, rather than going through the repository. This
4998
allows us to have 1 inventory read, and 2 inventory writes when
4999
committing a new tree. (John Arbash Meinel)
5000
5001
* When reverting, files that are not locally modified that do not exist
5002
in the target are deleted, not just unversioned (Aaron Bentley)
5003
5004
* When trying to acquire a lock, don't fail immediately. Instead, try
5005
a few times (up to 1 hour) before timing out. Also, report why the
5006
lock is unavailable (John Arbash Meinel, #43521, #49556)
5007
5008
* Leave HttpTransportBase daughter classes decides how they
5009
implement cloning. (Vincent Ladeuil, #61606)
5010
5011
* diff3 does not indicate conflicts on clean merge. (Aaron Bentley)
5012
5013
* If a commit fails, the commit message is stored in a file at the root of
5014
the tree for later commit. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, Stefan Metzmacher,
5015
#32054)
5016
5017
TESTING:
5018
5019
* New test base class TestCaseWithMemoryTransport offers memory-only
5020
testing facilities: its not suitable for tests that need to mutate disk
5021
state, but most tests should not need that and should be converted to
5022
TestCaseWithMemoryTransport. (Robert Collins)
5023
5024
* ``TestCase.make_branch_and_memory_tree`` now takes a format
5025
option to set the BzrDir, Repository and Branch formats of the
5026
created objects. (Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
5027

-----------------------
5045
5046
IMPROVEMENTS:
5047
5048
* Knit files now wait to create their contents until the first data is
5049
added. The old code used to create an empty .knit and a .kndx with just
5050
the header. However, this caused a lot of extra round trips over sftp.
5051
This can change the time for ``bzr push`` to create a new remote branch
5052
from 160s down to 100s. This also affects ``bzr commit`` performance when
5053
adding new files, ``bzr commit`` on a new kernel-like tree drops from 50s
5054
down to 40s (John Arbash Meinel, #44692)
5055
5056
* When an entire subtree has been deleted, commit will now report that
5057
just the top of the subtree has been deleted, rather than reporting
5058
all the individual items. (Robert Collins)
5059
5060
* Commit performs one less XML parse. (Robert Collins)
5061
5062
* ``bzr checkout`` now operates on readonly branches as well
5063
as readwrite branches. This fixes bug #39542. (Robert Collins)
5064
5065
* ``bzr bind`` no longer synchronises history with the master branch.
5066
Binding should be followed by an update or push to synchronise the
5067
two branches. This is closely related to the fix for bug #39542.
5068
(Robert Collins)
5069
5070
* ``bzrlib.lazy_import.lazy_import`` function to create on-demand
5071
objects. This allows all imports to stay at the global scope, but
5072
modules will not actually be imported if they are not used.
5073
(John Arbash Meinel)
5074
5075
* Support ``bzr://`` and ``bzr+ssh://`` urls to work with the new RPC-based
5076
transport which will be used with the upcoming high-performance smart
5077
server. The new command ``bzr serve`` will invoke bzr in server mode,
5078
which processes these requests. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins, Martin
5079
Pool)
5080
5081
* New command ``bzr version-info`` which can be used to get a summary
5082
of the current state of the tree. This is especially useful as part
5083
of a build commands. See ``doc/version_info.txt`` for more information
5084
(John Arbash Meinel)
5085
5086
BUG FIXES:
5087
5088
* ``'bzr inventory [FILE...]'`` allows restricting the file list to a
5089
specific set of files. (John Arbash Meinel, #3631)
5090
5091
* Don't abort when annotating empty files (John Arbash Meinel, #56814)
5092
5093
* Add ``Stanza.to_unicode()`` which can be passed to another Stanza
5094
when nesting stanzas. Also, add ``read_stanza_unicode`` to handle when
5095
reading a nested Stanza. (John Arbash Meinel)
5096
5097
* Transform._set_mode() needs to stat the right file.
5098
(John Arbash Meinel, #56549)
5099
5100
* Raise WeaveFormatError rather than StopIteration when trying to read
5101
an empty Weave file. (John Arbash Meinel, #46871)
5102
5103
* Don't access e.code for generic URLErrors, only HTTPErrors have .code.
5104
(Vincent Ladeuil, #59835)
5105
5106
* Handle boundary="" lines properly to allow access through a Squid proxy.
5107
(John Arbash Meinel, #57723)
5108
5109
* revert now removes newly-added directories (Aaron Bentley, #54172)
5110
5111
* ``bzr upgrade sftp://`` shouldn't fail to upgrade v6 branches if there
5112
isn't a working tree. (David Allouche, #40679)
5113
5114
* Give nicer error messages when a user supplies an invalid --revision
5115
parameter. (John Arbash Meinel, #55420)
5116
5117
* Handle when LANG is not recognized by python. Emit a warning, but
5118
just revert to using 'ascii'. (John Arbash Meinel, #35392)
5119
5120
* Don't use ``preexec_fn`` on win32, as it is not supported by subprocess.
5121
(John Arbash Meinel)
5122
5123
* Skip specific tests when the dependencies aren't met. This includes
5124
some ``setup.py`` tests when ``python-dev`` is not available, and
5125
some tests that depend on paramiko. (John Arbash Meinel, Mattheiu Moy)
5126
5127
* Fallback to Paramiko properly, if no ``ssh`` executable exists on
5128
the system. (Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)
5129
5130
* ``Branch.bind(other_branch)`` no longer takes a write lock on the
5131
other branch, and will not push or pull between the two branches.
5132
API users will need to perform a push or pull or update operation if they
5133
require branch synchronisation to take place. (Robert Collins, #47344)
5134
5135
* When creating a tarball or zipfile export, export unicode names as utf-8
5136
paths. This may not work perfectly on all platforms, but has the best
5137
chance of working in the common case. (John Arbash Meinel, #56816)
5138
5139
* When committing, only files that exist in working tree or basis tree
5140
may be specified (Aaron Bentley, #50793)
5141
5142
PORTABILITY:
5143
5144
* Fixes to run on Python 2.5 (Brian M. Carlson, Martin Pool, Marien Zwart)
5145
5146
INTERNALS:
5147
5148
* TestCaseInTempDir now creates a separate directory for HOME, rather
5149
than having HOME set to the same location as the working directory.
5150
(John Arbash Meinel)
5151
5152
* ``run_bzr_subprocess()`` can take an optional ``env_changes={}`` parameter,
5153
which will update os.environ inside the spawned child. It also can
5154
take a ``universal_newlines=True``, which helps when checking the output
5155
of the command. (John Arbash Meinel)
5156
5157
* Refactor SFTP vendors to allow easier re-use when ssh is used.
5158
(Andrew Bennetts)
5159
5160
* ``Transport.list_dir()`` and ``Transport.iter_files_recursive()`` should always
5161
return urlescaped paths. This is now tested (there were bugs in a few
5162
of the transports) (Andrew Bennetts, David Allouche, John Arbash Meinel)
5163
5164
* New utility function ``symbol_versioning.deprecation_string``. Returns the
5165
formatted string for a callable, deprecation format pair. (Robert Collins)
5166
5167
* New TestCase helper applyDeprecated. This allows you to call a callable
5168
which is deprecated without it spewing to the screen, just by supplying
5169
the deprecation format string issued for it. (Robert Collins)
5170
5171
* Transport.append and Transport.put have been deprecated in favor of
5172
``.append_bytes``, ``.append_file``, ``.put_bytes``, and
5173
``.put_file``. This removes the ambiguity in what type of object the
5174
functions take. ``Transport.non_atomic_put_{bytes,file}`` has also
5175
been added. Which works similarly to ``Transport.append()`` except for
5176
SFTP, it doesn't have a round trip when opening the file. Also, it
5177
provides functionality for creating a parent directory when trying
5178
to create a file, rather than raise NoSuchFile and forcing the
5179
caller to repeat their request.
5180
(John Arbash Meinel)
5181
5182
* WorkingTree has a new api ``unversion`` which allow the unversioning of
5183
entries by their file id. (Robert Collins)
5184
5185
* ``WorkingTree.pending_merges`` is deprecated. Please use the
5186
``get_parent_ids`` (introduced in 0.10) method instead. (Robert Collins)
5187
5188
* WorkingTree has a new ``lock_tree_write`` method which locks the branch for
5189
read rather than write. This is appropriate for actions which only need
5190
the branch data for reference rather than mutation. A new decorator
5191
``needs_tree_write_lock`` is provided in the workingtree module. Like the
5192
``needs_read_lock`` and ``needs_write_lock`` decorators this allows static
5193
declaration of the locking requirements of a function to ensure that
5194
a lock is taken out for casual scripts. (Robert Collins, #54107)
5195
5196
* All WorkingTree methods which write to the tree, but not to the branch
5197
have been converted to use ``needs_tree_write_lock`` rather than
5198
``needs_write_lock``. Also converted is the revert, conflicts and tree
5199
transform modules. This provides a modest performance improvement on
5200
metadir style trees, due to the reduce lock-acquisition, and a more
5201
significant performance improvement on lightweight checkouts from
5202
remote branches, where trivial operations used to pay a significant
5203
penalty. It also provides the basis for allowing readonly checkouts.
5204
(Robert Collins)
5205
5206
* Special case importing the standard library 'copy' module. This shaves
5207
off 40ms of startup time, while retaining compatibility. See:
5208
``bzrlib/inspect_for_copy.py`` for more details. (John Arbash Meinel)
5209
5210
* WorkingTree has a new parent class MutableTree which represents the
5211
specialisations of Tree which are able to be altered. (Robert Collins)
5212
5213
* New methods mkdir and ``put_file_bytes_non_atomic`` on MutableTree that
5214
mutate the tree and its contents. (Robert Collins)
5215
5216
* Transport behaviour at the root of the URL is now defined and tested.
5217
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
5218
5219
TESTING:
5220
5221
* New test helper classs MemoryTree. This is typically accessed via
5222
``self.make_branch_and_memory_tree()`` in test cases. (Robert Collins)
5223
5224
* Add ``start_bzr_subprocess`` and ``stop_bzr_subprocess`` to allow test
5225
code to continue running concurrently with a subprocess of bzr.
5226
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
5227
5228
* Add a new method ``Transport.get_smart_client()``. This is provided to
5229
allow upgrades to a richer interface than the VFS one provided by
5230
Transport. (Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)
5231
5232
bzr 0.10 2006-08-29
5233
--------------------
5234
5235
IMPROVEMENTS:
5236
* 'merge' now takes --uncommitted, to apply uncommitted changes from a
5237
tree. (Aaron Bentley)
5238
5239
* 'bzr add --file-ids-from' can be used to specify another path to use
5240
for creating file ids, rather than generating all new ones. Internally,
5241
the 'action' passed to ``smart_add_tree()`` can return ``file_ids`` that
5242
will be used, rather than having bzrlib generate new ones.
5243
(John Arbash Meinel, #55781)
5244
5245
* ``bzr selftest --benchmark`` now allows a ``--cache-dir`` parameter.
5246
This will cache some of the intermediate trees, and decrease the
5247
setup time for benchmark tests. (John Arbash Meinel)
5248
5249
* Inverse forms are provided for all boolean options. For example,
5250
--strict has --no-strict, --no-recurse has --recurse (Aaron Bentley)
5251
5252
* Serialize out Inventories directly, rather than using ElementTree.
5253
Writing out a kernel sized inventory drops from 2s down to ~350ms.
5254
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
5255
5256
BUG FIXES:
5257
5258
* Help diffutils 2.8.4 get along with binary tests (Marien Zwart: #57614)
5259
5260
* Change LockDir so that if the lock directory doesn't exist when
5261
``lock_write()`` is called, an attempt will be made to create it.
5262
(John Arbash Meinel, #56974)
5263
5264
* ``bzr uncommit`` preserves pending merges. (John Arbash Meinel, #57660)
5265
5266
* Active FTP transport now works as intended. (ghozzy, #56472)
5267
5268
* Really fix mutter() so that it won't ever raise a UnicodeError.
5269
It means it is possible for ~/.bzr.log to contain non UTF-8 characters.
5270
But it is a debugging log, not a real user file.
5271
(John Arbash Meinel, #56947, #53880)
5272
5273
* Change Command handle to allow Unicode command and options.
5274
At present we cannot register Unicode command names, so we will get
5275
BzrCommandError('unknown command'), or BzrCommandError('unknown option')
5276
But that is better than a UnicodeError + a traceback.
5277
(John Arbash Meinel, #57123)
5278
5279
* Handle TZ=UTC properly when reading/writing revisions.
5280
(John Arbash Meinel, #55783, #56290)
5281
5282
* Use ``GPG_TTY`` to allow gpg --cl to work with gpg-agent in a pipeline,
5283
(passing text to sign in on stdin). (John Arbash Meinel, #54468)
5284
5285
* External diff does the right thing for binaries even in foreign
5286
languages. (John Arbash Meinel, #56307)
5287
5288
* Testament handles more cases when content is unicode. Specific bug was
5289
in handling of revision properties.
5290
(John Arbash Meinel, Holger Krekel, #54723)
5291
5292
* The bzr selftest was failing on installed versions due to a bug in a new
5293
test helper. (John Arbash Meinel, Robert Collins, #58057)
5294
5295
INTERNALS:
5296
5297
* ``bzrlib.cache_utf8`` contains ``encode()`` and ``decode()`` functions
5298
which can be used to cache the conversion between utf8 and Unicode.
5299
Especially helpful for some of the knit annotation code, which has to
5300
convert revision ids to utf8 to annotate lines in storage.
5301
(John Arbash Meinel)
5302
5303
* ``setup.py`` now searches the filesystem to find all packages which
5304
need to be installed. This should help make the life of packagers
5305
easier. (John Arbash Meinel)
5306
5307
bzr 0.9.0 2006-08-11
5308
---------------------
5309
5310
SURPRISES:
5311
5312
* The hard-coded built-in ignore rules have been removed. There are
5313
now two rulesets which are enforced. A user global one in
5314
``~/.bazaar/ignore`` which will apply to every tree, and the tree
5315
specific one '.bzrignore'.
5316
``~/.bazaar/ignore`` will be created if it does not exist, but with
5317
a more conservative list than the old default.
5318
This fixes bugs with default rules being enforced no matter what.
5319
The old list of ignore rules from bzr is available by
5320
running 'bzr ignore --old-default-rules'.
5321
(Robert Collins, Martin Pool, John Arbash Meinel)
5322
5323
* 'branches.conf' has been changed to 'locations.conf', since it can apply
5324
to more locations than just branch locations.
5325
(Aaron Bentley)
5326
5327
IMPROVEMENTS:
5328
5329
* The revision specifier "revno:" is extended to accept the syntax
5330
revno:N:branch. For example,
5331
revno:42:http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/ means revision 42 in
5332
bzr.dev. (Matthieu Moy)
5333
5334
* Tests updates to ensure proper URL handling, UNICODE support, and
5335
proper printing when the user's terminal encoding cannot display
5336
the path of a file that has been versioned.
5337
``bzr branch`` can take a target URL rather than only a local directory.
5338
``Branch.get_parent()/set_parent()`` now save a relative path if possible,
5339
and normalize the parent based on root, allowing access across
5340
different transports. (John Arbash Meinel, Wouter van Heyst, Martin Pool)
5341
(Malone #48906, #42699, #40675, #5281, #3980, #36363, #43689,
5342
#42517, #42514)
4
5343
5
5344
* On Unix, detect terminal width using an ioctl not just $COLUMNS.
6
5345
Use terminal width for single-line logs from ``bzr log --line`` and
18
5357
* 'bzr selftest' now shows a progress bar with the number of tests, and
19
5358
progress made. 'make check' shows tests in -v mode, to be more useful
20
5359
for the PQM status window. (Robert Collins).
5360
When using a progress bar, failed tests are printed out, rather than
5361
being overwritten by the progress bar until the suite finishes.
5362
(John Arbash Meinel)
21
5363
22
5364
* 'bzr selftest --benchmark' will run a new benchmarking selftest.
23
5365
'bzr selftest --benchmark --lsprof-timed' will use lsprofile to generate
38
5380
ftp support has been improved, including support for supplying a
39
5381
non-standard port. (John Arbash Meinel).
40
5382
41
* ``log --line`` shows the revision number. (#5162, Alexander Belchenko)
5383
* 'bzr log --line' shows the revision number, and uses only the
5384
first line of the log message (#5162, Alexander Belchenko;
5385
Matthieu Moy)
5386
5387
* 'bzr status' has had the --all option removed. The 'bzr ls' command
5388
should be used to retrieve all versioned files. (Robert Collins)
5389
5390
* 'bzr bundle OTHER/BRANCH' will create a bundle which can be sent
5391
over email, and applied on the other end, while maintaining ancestry.
5392
This bundle can be applied with either 'bzr merge' or 'bzr pull',
5393
the same way you would apply another branch.
5394
(John Arbash Meinel, Aaron Bentley)
5395
5396
* 'bzr whoami' can now be used to set your identity from the command line,
5397
for a branch or globally. (Robey Pointer)
5398
5399
* 'bzr checkout' now aliased to 'bzr co', and 'bzr annotate' to 'bzr ann'.
5400
(Michael Ellerman)
5401
5402
* 'bzr revert DIRECTORY' now reverts the contents of the directory as well.
5403
(Aaron Bentley)
5404
5405
* 'bzr get sftp://foo' gives a better error when paramiko is not present.
5406
Also updates things like 'http+pycurl://' if pycurl is not present.
5407
(John Arbash Meinel) (Malone #47821, #52204)
5408
5409
* New env variable ``BZR_PROGRESS_BAR``, sets the default progress bar type.
5410
Can be set to 'none' or 'dummy' to disable the progress bar, 'dots' or
5411
'tty' to create the respective type. (John Arbash Meinel, #42197, #51107)
5412
5413
* Improve the help text for 'bzr diff' to explain what various options do.
5414
(John Arbash Meinel, #6391)
5415
5416
* 'bzr uncommit -r 10' now uncommits revisions 11.. rather than uncommitting
5417
revision 10. This makes -r10 more in line with what other commands do.
5418
'bzr uncommit' also now saves the pending merges of the revisions that
5419
were removed. So it is safe to uncommit after a merge, fix something,
5420
and commit again. (John Arbash Meinel, #32526, #31426)
5421
5422
* 'bzr init' now also works on remote locations.
5423
(Wouter van Heyst, #48904)
5424
5425
* HTTP support has been updated. When using pycurl we now support
5426
connection keep-alive, which reduces dns requests and round trips.
5427
And for both urllib and pycurl we support multi-range requests,
5428
which decreases the number of round-trips. Performance results for
5429
``bzr branch http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev/`` indicate
5430
http branching is now 2-3x faster, and ``bzr pull`` in an existing
5431
branch is as much as 4x faster.
5432
(Michael Ellerman, Johan Rydberg, John Arbash Meinel, #46768)
5433
5434
* Performance improvements for sftp. Branching and pulling are now up to
5435
2x faster. Utilize paramiko.readv() support for async requests if it
5436
is available (paramiko > 1.6) (John Arbash Meinel)
42
5437
43
5438
BUG FIXES:
44
5439
45
5440
* Fix shadowed definition of TestLocationConfig that caused some
46
tests not to run. (#32587, Erik Bågfors, Michael Ellerman,
47
Martin Pool)
5441
tests not to run.
5442
(Erik Bågfors, Michael Ellerman, Martin Pool, #32587)
5443
5444
* Fix unnecessary requirement of sign-my-commits that it be run from
5445
a working directory. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
5446
5447
* 'bzr push location' will only remember the push location if it succeeds
5448
in connecting to the remote location. (John Arbash Meinel, #49742)
5449
5450
* 'bzr revert' no longer toggles the executable bit on win32
5451
(John Arbash Meinel, #45010)
5452
5453
* Handle broken pipe under win32 correctly. (John Arbash Meinel)
5454
5455
* sftp tests now work correctly on win32 if you have a newer paramiko
5456
(John Arbash Meinel)
5457
5458
* Cleanup win32 test suite, and general cleanup of places where
5459
file handles were being held open. (John Arbash Meinel)
5460
5461
* When specifying filenames for 'diff -r x..y', the name of the file in the
5462
working directory can be used, even if its name is different in both x
5463
and y.
5464
5465
* File-ids containing single- or double-quotes are handled correctly by
5466
push. (Aaron Bentley, #52227)
5467
5468
* Normalize unicode filenames to ensure cross-platform consistency.
5469
(John Arbash Meinel, #43689)
5470
5471
* The argument parser can now handle '-' as an argument. Currently
5472
no code interprets it specially (it is mostly handled as a file named
5473
'-'). But plugins, and future operations can use it.
5474
(John Arbash meinel, #50984)
5475
5476
* Bundles can properly read binary files with a plain '\r' in them.
5477
(John Arbash Meinel, #51927)
5478
5479
* Tuning ``iter_entries()`` to be more efficient (John Arbash Meinel, #5444)
5480
5481
* Lots of win32 fixes (the test suite passes again).
5482
(John Arbash Meinel, #50155)
5483
5484
* Handle openbsd returning None for sys.getfilesystemencoding() (#41183)
5485
5486
* Support ftp APPE (append) to allow Knits to be used over ftp (#42592)
5487
5488
* Removals are only committed if they match the filespec (or if there is
5489
no filespec). (#46635, Aaron Bentley)
5490

* smart-add recurses through all supplied directories
5492
(John Arbash Meinel, #52578)
5493
5494
* Make the bundle reader extra lines before and after the bundle text.
5495
This allows you to parse an email with the bundle inline.
5496
(John Arbash Meinel, #49182)
5497
5498
* Change the file id generator to squash a little bit more. Helps when
5499
working with long filenames on windows. (Also helps for unicode filenames
5500
not generating hidden files). (John Arbash Meinel, #43801)
5501
5502
* Restore terminal mode on C-c while reading sftp password. (#48923,
5503
Nicholas Allen, Martin Pool)
5504
5505
* Timestamps are rounded to 1ms, and revision entries can be recreated
5506
exactly. (John Arbash Meinel, Jamie Wilkinson, #40693)
5507
5508
* Branch.base has changed to a URL, but ~/.bazaar/locations.conf should
5509
use local paths, since it is user visible (John Arbash Meinel, #53653)
5510
5511
* ``bzr status foo`` when foo was unversioned used to cause a full delta
5512
to be generated (John Arbash Meinel, #53638)
5513
5514
* When reading revision properties, an empty value should be considered
5515
the empty string, not None (John Arbash Meinel, #47782)
5516
5517
* ``bzr diff --diff-options`` can now handle binary files being changed.
5518
Also, the output is consistent when --diff-options is not supplied.
5519
(John Arbash Meinel, #54651, #52930)
5520
5521
* Use the right suffixes for loading plugins (John Arbash Meinel, #51810)
5522
5523
* Fix ``Branch.get_parent()`` to handle the case when the parent is not
5524
accessible (John Arbash Meinel, #52976)

them to reduce the threshold where N^2 behaviour occurs in operations
53
5530
like status. (Jan Hudec, Robert Collins).
54
5531
5532
* Appending to ``bzrlib.DEFAULT_IGNORE`` is now deprecated. Instead, use
5533
one of the add functions in bzrlib.ignores. (John Arbash Meinel)
5534
55
5535
* 'bzr push' should only push the ancestry of the current revision, not
56
5536
all of the history in the repository. This is especially important for
57
5537
shared repositories. (John Arbash Meinel)
58
5538
5539
* ``bzrlib.delta.compare_trees`` now iterates in alphabetically sorted order,
5540
rather than randomly walking the inventories. (John Arbash Meinel)
5541
5542
* Doctests are now run in temporary directories which are cleaned up when
5543
they finish, rather than using special ScratchDir/ScratchBranch objects.
5544
(Martin Pool)
5545
5546
* Split ``check`` into separate methods on the branch and on the repository,
5547
so that it can be specialized in ways that are useful or efficient for
5548
different formats. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
5549
5550
* Deprecate ``Repository.all_revision_ids``; most methods don't really need
5551
the global revision graph but only that part leading up to a particular
5552
revision. (Martin Pool, Robert Collins)
5553
5554
* Add a BzrDirFormat ``control_formats`` list which allows for control formats
5555
that do not use '.bzr' to store their data - i.e. '.svn', '.hg' etc.
5556
(Robert Collins, Jelmer Vernooij).
5557
5558
* ``bzrlib.diff.external_diff`` can be redirected to any file-like object.
5559
Uses subprocess instead of spawnvp.
5560
(James Henstridge, John Arbash Meinel, #4047, #48914)
5561
5562

5563
importer to log time to import modules and regex compilation time to
5564
sys.stderr (John Arbash Meinel)
5565
5566
* 'EmptyTree' is now deprecated, please use ``repository.revision_tree(None)``
5567
instead. (Robert Collins)
5568

6325
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as ``WorkingTree.pull()``.
805
6326
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will

This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.

It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -

826
6347
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
831
6352

* ``merge_flex`` no longer calls ``conflict_handler.finalize()``, instead that
6359
is called by ``merge_inner``. This is so that the conflict count can be
839
6360
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
840
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
6361

IMPROVEMENTS:

bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
974
6497
handling of such circumstances.
975
6498
6499
* Remove RevisionReference class; ``Revision.parent_ids`` is now simply a
6500
list of their ids and ``parent_sha1s`` is a list of their corresponding
6501
sha1s (for old branches only at the moment.)
6502
6503
* New method-object style interface for Commit() and Fetch().
6504
6505
* Renamed ``Branch.last_patch()`` to ``Branch.last_revision()``, since
6506
we call them revisions not patches.
6507
6508
* Move ``copy_branch`` to ``bzrlib.clone.copy_branch``. The destination
6509
directory is created if it doesn't exist.
6510
6511
* Inventories now identify the files which were present by
6512
giving the revision *of that file*.
6513
6514
* Inventory and Revision XML contains a version identifier.
6515
This must be consistent with the overall branch version
6516
but allows for more flexibility in future upgrades.
