No changes from 0.13rc
24
* New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
28
* urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
29
operations are substantially faster.
30
(Vincent Ladeuil, #53654)
32
* ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
33
tree from some other url. For example:
34
``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
37
* Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
38
location for general information, outside of a specific command.
39
This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
40
included. (Goffredo Baroncelli, John Arbash Meinel, #42714)
42
* WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server. See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
45
* Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
46
deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
47
deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
48
files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
49
(eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
50
the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB) (John Arbash Meinel)
55
* New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
56
for particular areas. -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
59
* Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
60
and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
63
* Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
64
progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
65
so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
68
* ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
69
files or directories in root directory. (John Arbash Meinel)
71
* New method ``get_branch_reference`` on 'BzrDir' allows the detection of
72
branch references - which the smart server component needs.
74
* New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
75
prefix. It disallows any access to locations above a set URL. (Andrew
81
* Now ``_KnitIndex`` properly decode revision ids when loading index data.
82
And optimize the knit index parsing code.
83
(Dmitry Vasiliev, John Arbash Meinel)
85
* ``bzrlib/bzrdir.py`` was directly referencing ``bzrlib.workingtree``,
86
without importing it. This prevented ``bzr upgrade`` from working
87
unless a plugin already imported ``bzrlib.workingtree``
88
(John Arbash Meinel, #70716)
90
* Suppress the traceback on invalid URLs (Vincent Ladeuil, #70803).
92
* Give nicer error message when an http server returns a 403
93
error code. (Vincent Ladeuil, #57644).
95
* When a multi-range http GET request fails, try a single
96
range one. If it fails too, forget about ranges. Remember that until
97
the death of the transport and propagates that to the clones.
98
(Vincent Ladeuil, #62276, #62029).
100
* Handles user/passwords supplied in url from command
101
line (for the urllib implementation). Don't request already
102
known passwords (Vincent Ladeuil, #42383, #44647, #48527)
104
* ``_KnitIndex.add_versions()`` dictionary compresses revision ids as they
105
are added. This fixes bug where fetching remote revisions records
106
them as full references rather than integers.
107
(John Arbash Meinel, #64789)
109
* ``bzr ignore`` strips trailing slashes in patterns.
110
Also ``bzr ignore`` rejects absolute paths. (Kent Gibson, #4559)
112
* ``bzr ignore`` takes multiple arguments. (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #29488)
114
* mv correctly handles paths that traverse symlinks.
115
(Aaron Bentley, #66964)
117
* Give nicer looking error messages when failing to connect over ssh.
118
(John Arbash Meinel, #49172)
120
* Pushing to a remote branch does not currently update the remote working
121
tree. After a remote push, ``bzr status`` and ``bzr diff`` on the remote
122
machine now show that the working tree is out of date.
123
(Cheuksan Edward Wang #48136)
125
* Use patiencediff instead of difflib for determining deltas to insert
126
into knits. This avoids the O(N^3) behavior of difflib. Patience
127
diff should be O(N^2). (Cheuksan Edward Wang, #65714)
129
* Running ``bzr log`` on nonexistent file gives an error instead of the
130
entire log history. (Cheuksan Edward Wang #50793)
132
* ``bzr cat`` can look up contents of removed or renamed files. If the
133
pathname is ambiguous, i.e. the files in the old and new trees have
134
different id's, the default is the file in the new tree. The user can
135
use "--name-from-revision" to select the file in the old tree.
136
(Cheuksan Edward Wang, #30190)
141
* TestingHTTPRequestHandler really handles the Range header
142
(previously it was ignoring it and returning the whole file,).
