15
* ``bzr push`` now checks if uncommitted changes are present in the working
16
tree if the ``--strict`` option is used.
17
(Vincent Ladeuil, #284038)
23
* Add documentation about diverged branches and how to fix them in the
24
centralized workflow with local commits. Mention ``bzr help
25
diverged-branches`` when a push fails because the branches have
26
diverged. (Neil Martinsen-Burrell, #269477)
28
* Automatic format upgrades triggered by default stacking policies on a
29
1.16rc1 (or later) smart server work again.
30
(Andrew Bennetts, #388675)
32
* Better message in ``bzr split`` error suggesting a rich root format.
33
(Neil Martinsen-Burrell, #220067)
35
* ``Branch.set_append_revisions_only`` now works with branches on a smart
36
server. (Andrew Bennetts, #365865)
38
* ``bzr ls DIR --from-root`` now shows only things in DIR, not everything.
41
* Progress bars are now suppressed again when the environment variable
42
``BZR_PROGRESS_BAR`` is set to ``none``.
43
(Martin Pool, #339385)
48
* Command lookup has had hooks added. ``bzrlib.Command.hooks`` has
49
three new hook points: ``get_command``, ``get_missing_command`` and
50
``list_commands``, which allow just-in-time command name provision
51
rather than requiring all command names be known a-priori.
54
* ``graph.KnownGraph`` has been added. This is a class that can give
55
answers to ``heads()`` very quickly. However, it has the assumption that
56
the whole graph has already been loaded. This is true during
57
``annotate`` so it is used there with good success (as much as 2x faster
58
for files with long ancestry and 'cherrypicked' changes.)
61
* pack <=> pack fetching is now done via a ``PackStreamSource`` rather
62
than the ``Packer`` code. The user visible change is that we now
63
properly fetch the minimum number of texts for non-smart fetching.
70
``bzr ls`` is now faster. On OpenOffice.org, the time drops from 2.4
71
to 1.1 seconds. The improvement for ``bzr ls -r-1`` is more
72
substantial dropping from 54.3 to 1.1 seconds. (Ian Clatworthy)
74
* Resolving a revno to a revision id on a branch accessed via ``bzr://``
75
or ``bzr+ssh://`` is now much faster and involves no VFS operations.
76
This speeds up commands like ``bzr pull -r 123``. (Andrew Bennetts)
81
* Minor clarifications to the help for End-Of-Line conversions.
87
* Removed overspecific error class ``InvalidProgressBarType``.
90
* The method ``ProgressView._show_transport_activity`` is now
91
``show_transport_activity`` because it's part of the contract between
92
this class and the UI. (Martin Pool)

This version of Bazaar contains the beta release of the new ``2a`` repository
100
format, suitable for testing by fearless, advanced users. This format or an
101
updated version of it will become the default format in Bazaar 2.0. Please
102
read the NEWS entry before even thinking about upgrading to the new format.
104
Also included are speedups for many operations on huge projects, a bug fix for
105
pushing stacked new stacked branches to smart servers and the usual bevy of
106
bug fixes and improvements.

Compatibility Breaks

110
********************
112
* Display prompt on stderr (instead of stdout) when querying users so
113
that the output of commands can be safely redirected.
114
(Vincent Ladeuil, #376582)
120
* A new repository format ``2a`` has been added. This is a beta release
121
of the the brisbane-core (aka group-compress) project. This format now
122
suitable for wider testing by advanced users willing to deal with some
123
bugs. We would appreciate test reports, either positive or negative.
124
Format 2a is substantially smaller and faster for many operations on
125
many trees. This format or an updated version will become the default
128
This is a rich-root format, so this repository format can be used with
129
bzr-svn. Bazaar branches in previous non-rich-root formats can be
130
converted (including by merge, push and pull) to format 2a, but not vice
131
versa. We recommend upgrading previous development formats to 2a.
133
Upgrading to this format can take considerable time because it expands
134
and more concisely repacks the full history.
136
If you use stacked branches, you must upgrade the stacked branches
137
before the stacked-on branches. (See <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/374735>)
139
* ``--development7-rich-root`` is a new dev format, similar to ``--dev6``
140
but using a Revision serializer using bencode rather than XML.
141
(Jelmer Vernooij, John Arbash Meinel)
143
* mail_client=claws now supports --body (and message body hooks). Also uses
144
configured from address. (Barry Warsaw)
150
* ``--development6-rich-root`` can now stack. (Modulo some smart-server
151
bugs with stacking and non default formats.)
152
(John Arbash Meinel, #373455)
154
* ``--development6-rich-root`` delays generating a delta index for the
155
first object inserted into a group. This has a beneficial impact on
156
``bzr commit`` since each committed texts goes to its own group. For
157
committing a 90MB file, it drops peak memory by about 200MB, and speeds
158
up commit from 7s => 4s. (John Arbash Meinel)
21
160
* Numerous operations are now faster for huge projects, i.e. those
22
161
with a large number of files and/or a large number of revisions,
23
162
particularly when the latest development format is used. These
33
* ``--development6-rich-root`` can now stack. (Modulo some smart-server
34
bugs with stacking and non default formats.)
35
(John Arbash Meinel, #373455)
172
* Pyrex version of ``bencode`` support. This provides optimized support
173
for both encoding and decoding, and is now found at ``bzrlib.bencode``.
174
``bzrlib.utils.bencode`` is now deprecated.
175
(Alexander Belchenko, Jelmer Vernooij, John Arbash Meinel)
181
* Bazaar can now pass attachment files to the mutt email client.
182
(Edwin Grubbs, #384158)
41
184
* Better message in ``bzr add`` output suggesting using ``bzr ignored`` to
42
185
see which files can also be added. (Jason Spashett, #76616)
187
* ``bzr pull -r 123`` from a stacked branch on a smart server no longer fails.
188
Also, the ``Branch.revision_history()`` API now works in the same
189
situation. (Andrew Bennetts, #380314)
191
* ``bzr serve`` on Windows no longer displays a traceback simply because a
192
TCP client disconnected. (Andrew Bennetts)
44
194
* Clarify the rules for locking and fallback repositories. Fix bugs in how
45
195
``RemoteRepository`` was handling fallbacks along with the
46
196
``_real_repository``. (Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel, #375496)
198
* Fix a small bug with fetching revisions w/ ghosts into a new stacked
199
branch. Not often triggered, because it required ghosts to be part of
200
the fetched revisions, not in the stacked-on ancestry.
203
* Fix status and commit to work with content filtered trees, addressing
204
numerous bad bugs with line-ending support. (Ian Clatworthy, #362030)
206
* Fix problem of "directory not empty" when contending for a lock over
207
sftp. (Martin Pool, #340352)
209
* Fix rule handling so that eol is optional, not mandatory.
210
(Ian Clatworthy, #379370)
212
* Pushing a new stacked branch to a 1.15 smart server was broken due to a
213
bug in the ``BzrDirFormat.initialize_ex`` smart verb. This is fixed in
214
1.16, but required changes to the network protocol, so the
215
``BzrDirFormat.initialize_ex`` verb has been removed and replaced with a
216
corrected ``BzrDirFormat.initialize_ex_1.16`` verb. 1.15 clients will
217
still work with a 1.16 server as they will fallback to slower (and
219
(Jonathan Lange, Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts, #385132)
221
* Reconcile can now deal with text revisions that originated in revisions
222
that are ghosts. (Jelmer Vernooij, #336749)
224
* Support cloning of branches with ghosts in the left hand side history.
225
(Jelmer Vernooij, #248540)
227
* The ''bzr diff'' now catches OSError from osutils.rmtree and logs a
228
helpful message to the trace file, unless the temp directory really was
229
removed (which would be very strange). Since the diff operation has
230
succeeded from the user's perspective, no output is written to stderr
231
or stdout. (Maritza Mendez, #363837)
233
* Translate errors received from a smart server in response to a
234
``BzrDirFormat.initialize`` or ``BzrDirFormat.initialize_ex`` request.
235
This was causing tracebacks even for mundane errors like
236
``PermissionDenied``. (Andrew Bennetts, #381329)
241
* Added directory structure and started translation of docs in Russian.
242
(Alexey Shtokalo, Alexander Iljin, Alexander Belchenko, Dmitry Vasiliev,
55
249
* Added osutils.parent_directories(). (Ian Clatworthy)
251
* ``bzrlib.progress.ProgressBar``, ``ChildProgress``, ``DotsProgressBar``,
252
``TTYProgressBar`` and ``child_progress`` are now deprecated; use
253
``ui_factory.nested_progress_bar`` instead. (Martin Pool)
255
* ``graph.StackedParentsProvider`` is now a public API, replacing
256
``graph._StackedParentsProvider``. The api is now considered stable and ready
257
for external users. (Gary van der Merwe)
259
* ``bzrlib.user_encoding`` is deprecated in favor of
260
``get_user_encoding``. (Alexander Belchenko)
57
262
* TreeTransformBase no longer assumes that limbo is provided via disk.
58
263
DiskTreeTransform now provides disk functionality. (Aaron Bentley)
268
* Remove ``weave.py`` script for accessing internals of old weave-format
269
repositories. (Martin Pool)
274
* The number of cores is now correctly detected on OSX. (John Szakmeister)
276
* The number of cores is also detected on Solaris and win32. (Vincent Ladeuil)
278
* The number of cores is also detected on FreeBSD. (Matthew Fuller)

The smart server will no longer raise 'NoSuchRevision' when streaming content
74
288
with a size mismatch in a reconstructed graph search. New command ``bzr
75
289
dpush``. Plugins can now define their own annotation tie-breaker when two
76
290
revisions introduce the exact same line.
