---------------------------------
11
This first monthly release of Bazaar for 2009 improves Bazaar's operation
12
in Windows, Mac OS X, and other situations where file names are matched
13
without regard to capitalization: Bazaar tries to match the case of an
14
existing file. This release of Bazaar also improves the efficiency of
15
Tortoise Windows Shell integration and lets it work on 64-bit platforms.
17
The UI through which Bazaar supports historic formats has been improved,
18
so 'bzr help formats' now gives a simpler and shorter list, with clear
21
This release also fixes a number of bugs, particularly a glitch that can
22
occur when there are concurrent writes to a pack repository.
13
26
* Formats using Knit-based repository formats are now explicitly
14
27
marked as deprecated. (Ian Clatworthy)
16
* ``LRUCache(after_cleanup_size)`` was renamed to
17
``after_cleanup_count`` and the old name deprecated. The new name is
18
used for clarity, and to avoid confusion with
19
``LRUSizeCache(after_cleanup_size)``. (John Arbash Meinel)
23
31
* Add support for `bzr tags -r 1..2`, that is we now support showing
40
48
* ``bzr revision-info`` now supports a -d option to specify an
41
49
alternative branch. (Michael Hudson)
51
* Add connection to a C++ implementation of the Windows Shell Extension
52
which is able to fully replace the current Python implemented one.
53
Advantages include 64bit support and reduction in overhead for
54
processes which drag in shell extensions.
43
57
* Support the Claws mail client directly, rather than via
44
58
xdg-email. This prevents the display of an unnecessary modal
45
59
dialog in Claws, informing the user that a file has been
46
60
attached to the message, and works around bug #291847 in
47
61
xdg-utils which corrupts the destination address.
63
* When working on a case-insensitive case-preserving file-system, as
64
commonly found with Windows, bzr will often ignore the case of the
65
arguments specified by the user in preference to the case of an existing
66
item on the file-system or in the inventory to help prevent
67
counter-intuitive behaviour on Windows. (Mark Hammond)
71
* Fix a problem with CIFS client/server lag on Windows colliding with
72
an invariant-per-process algorithm for generating AtomicFile names
73
(Adrian Wilkins, #304023)
51
75
* Allow BzrDir implementation to implement backing up of
52
76
control directory. (#139691)
164
* ``LRUCache(after_cleanup_size)`` was renamed to
165
``after_cleanup_count`` and the old name deprecated. The new name is
166
used for clarity, and to avoid confusion with
167
``LRUSizeCache(after_cleanup_size)``. (John Arbash Meinel)
140
169
* New ``ForeignRepository`` base class, to help with foreign branch
141
170
support (e.g. svn). (Jelmer Vernooij)
