* ``bzr serve`` will now disconnect clients if they have not issued an RPC
30
request after 5minutes. On POSIX platforms, this will also happen for
31
``bzr serve --inet``. This can be overridden with the configuration
32
variable ``serve.client_timeout`` or in the command line parameter
33
``bzr serve --client-timeout=X``. Further, it is possible to request
34
``bzr serve [--inet]`` to shutdown gracefully by sending SIGHUP. It will
35
finish the current request, and then close the connection.

.. Improvements to existing commands, especially improved performance
33
43
or memory usage, or better results.
45
* Fixed a bug where ``bzr tags -r x..y`` loaded the branch history once for
46
every revision in the range; it's now much faster. (Vincent Ladeuil, #857335)
38
51
.. Fixes for situations where bzr would previously crash or give incorrect
39
52
or undesirable results.
54
* ``bzr shelve`` can now be used in emacs shells as the input handling is
55
turned into a line-basde one when ``INSIDE_EMACS`` is set (which is the
56
case for all recent emacs versions). (Vincent Ladeuil, #856261)
41
58
* Redirects between http and https no longer discard path information
42
59
in some cases. (Jelmer Vernooij, #853765)
58
75
.. Changes that may require updates in plugins or other code that uses
78
* ``Branch.get_revision_delta`` has been deprecated. Use
79
``Repository.get_revision_delta`` instead. (Jelmer Vernooij, #859712)
81
* The new method ``ControlDirFormat.is_initializable()`` returns a boolean
82
indicating whether or not it is possible to use any of the
83
initialization methods of that format to create a new control dir.
100
* Test scripts can now use ``bzr shelve`` and provide their input as
101
complete lines. (Vincent Ladeuil, #856261)
75
103
.. Fixes and changes that are only relevant to bzr's test framework and
76
104
suite. This can include new facilities for writing tests, fixes to
77
105
spurious test failures and changes to the way things should be tested.
107
* Really corrupt the pack file without depending on a special length or value.
108
(Vincent Ladeuil, #807032)
301
332
* New registry ``OptionRegistry`` specialized for configuration options.
302
333
(Vincent Ladeuil)
335
* Plugins that implement custom protocols for ``bzr serve`` should now
336
also take an argument ``timeout``. This is used by the the bzr protocol
337
to close a connection if a client has been idle for more than X seconds.
338
(Default 5minutes). (John Arbash Meinel)
304
340
* Remove ``AtomicFile.closed`` which has been deprecated in bzr 0.10.
