bzr-0.0.5 NOT RELEASED YET
5
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
6
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
8
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
9
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
10
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
11
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
16
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
17
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
19
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
21
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
22
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
24
* Add ``.*.swp .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
26
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
27
either read or write mode.
29
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
31
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
34
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
36
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
39
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
40
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
42
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
45
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
46
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
48
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
49
haven't changed since the previous time.
51
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
52
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
54
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
56
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
61
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
62
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
67
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
68
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
71
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
72
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
74
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
75
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
77
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
78
under a different version.
83
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
85
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
88
* Better help messages for many commands.
90
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
91
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
93
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
94
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
96
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
98
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
100
* New AtomicFile class.
102
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
107
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
108
2.4 is now only recommended.
115
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
116
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
118
* More default ignore patterns.
120
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
121
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
123
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
125
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
128
* New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.
133
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
134
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
135
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
136
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
137
there are DNS problems.
139
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
144
* Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.
146
* Some Unicode/locale fixes.
148
* Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling
149
trailing newlines properly.
154
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
157
* More tests in test.sh.
159
* Write profile data to a temporary file not into working
160
directory and delete it when done.
162
* Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.
167
* Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows. Patch from Andrew
170
* Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch
178
* New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories
181
* Can now say "bzr commit --help".
183
* New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name
186
* New "move" command to move one or more files into a different
189
* New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.
191
* New cat command contributed by janmar.
195
* .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in
196
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
201
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an
202
exception when comparing empty files. Reported by Erik Toubro
207
* Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.
211
* Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.
218
* Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.

228
rather than replacing it.
230
* Ignore list isn't reread for every file.
234
* Reinstate the 'bzr check' command to check invariants of the
237

238
'deleted' lists files deleted in the current working tree.
240
* Performance improvements.
242
* New global --profile option.
244
* Ignore patterns like './config.h' now correctly match files in
245
the root directory only.
252

256
* Less file flushing and faster performance when writing logs and
257
committing to stores.
259
* More useful verbose output from some commands.
263
* Fix inverted display of 'R' and 'M' during 'commit -v'.
267
* Include a subset of ElementTree-1.2.20040618 to make
270
* Fix time.localtime call to work with Python 2.3 (the minimum
