UNRELEASED CHANGES
CHANGES:
* .bzrignore is excluded from exports, on the grounds that it's a bzr
internal-use file and may not be wanted. (Jamie Wilkinson)
* The "bzr directories" command were removed in favor of the new
--kind option to the "bzr inventory" command. To list all
versioned directories, now use "bzr inventory --kind directory".
(Johan Rydberg)
* Under Windows configuration directory is now %APPDATA%\bazaar\2.0
by default. (John Arbash Meinel)
* The parent of Bzr configuration directory can be set by BZR_HOME
environment variable. Now the path for it is searched in BZR_HOME, then
in HOME. Under Windows the order is: BZR_HOME, APPDATA (usually
points to C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\Application Data), HOME.
(John Arbash Meinel)
* Plugins with the same name in different directories in the bzr plugin
path are no longer loaded: only the first successfully loaded one is
used. (Robert Collins)
* Use systems' external ssh command to open connections if possible.
This gives better integration with user settings such as ProxyCommand.
(James Henstridge)
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the IETF draft spec.
Paths now take the form:
sftp://user:pass@host:port/relative/path
or
sftp://user:pass@host:port/%2Fabsolute/path
or
sftp://user:pass@host:port//absolute/path
IMPROVEMENTS:
* "bzr INIT dir" now initializes the specified directory, and creates
it if it does not exist. (John Arbash Meinel)
* New remerge command (Aaron Bentley)
* Better zsh completion script. (Steve Borho)
* 'bzr diff' now returns 1 when there are changes in the working
tree. (Robert Collins)
* 'bzr push' now exists and can push changes to a remote location.
This uses the transport infrastructure, and can store the remote
location in the ~/.bazaar/branches.conf configuration file.
(Robert Collins)
* Test directories are only kept if the test fails and the user requests
that they be kept.
* Tweaks to short log printing
* Added branch nicks, new nick command, printing them in log output.
(Aaron Bentley)
* If $BZR_PDB is set, pop into the debugger when an uncaught exception
occurs. (Martin Pool)
* Accept 'bzr resolved' (an alias for 'bzr resolve'), as this is
the same as Subversion. (Martin Pool)
* New ftp transport support (on ftplib), for ftp:// and aftp://
URLs. (Daniel Silverstone)
* Commit editor temporary files now start with 'bzr_log.', to allow
text editors to match the file name and set up appropriate modes or
settings. (Magnus Therning)
* Improved performance when integrating changes from a remote weave.
(Goffredo Baroncelli)
* Sftp will attempt to cache the connection, so it is more likely that
a connection will be reused, rather than requiring multiple password
requests.
* bzr revno now takes an optional argument indicating the branch whose
revno should be printed. (Michael Ellerman)
* bzr cat defaults to printing the last version of the file.
(#3632, Matthieu Moy)
* New global option 'bzr --lsprof COMMAND' runs bzr under the lsprof
profiler. (Denys Duchier)
* Faster commits by reading only the headers of affected weave files.
(Denys Duchier)
* New --dry-run option for add. (Michael Ellerman)
BUG FIXES:
* SFTP can walk up to the root path without index errors. (Robert Collins)
* Fix bugs in running bzr with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
* Error when run with -OO
* Fix bug in reporting http errors that don't have an http error code.
(Martin Pool)
* Handle more cases of pipe errors in display commands
* Change status to 3 for all errors
* Files that are added and unlinked before committing are completely
ignored by diff and status
* Stores with some compressed texts and some uncompressed texts are now
able to be used. (John A Meinel)
* Fix for bzr pull failing sometimes under windows
* Fix for sftp transport under windows when using interactive auth
* Show files which are both renamed and modified as such in 'bzr
status' output. (#4503, Daniel Silverstone)
* Make annotate cope better with revisions committed without a valid
email address. (Marien Zwart)
* Fix representation of tab characters in commit messages. (Harald
Meland)
* List of plugin directories in BZR_PLUGIN_PATH environment variable is
now parsed properly under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
* Show number of revisions pushed/pulled/merged. (Robey Pointer)
* Keep a cached copy of the basis inventory to speed up operations
that need to refer to it. (Johan Rydberg, Martin Pool)
* Fix bugs in bzr status display of non-ascii characters. (Martin
Pool)
TESTING:
* Fix selftest asking for passwords when there are no SFTP keys.
(Robey Pointer, Jelmer Vernooij)
* Fix selftest run with 'python -O'. (Martin Pool)
* Fix HTTP tests under Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
* Make tests work even if HOME is not set (Aaron Bentley)
* Updated build_tree to use fixed line-endings for tests which read
the file cotents and compare. Make some tests use this to pass under
Windows. (John Arbash Meinel)
* Skip stat and symlink tests under Windows. (Alexander Belchenko)
* Delay in selftest/testhashcash is now issued under win32 and Cygwin.
(John Arbash Meinel)
* Use terminal width to align verbose test output. (Martin Pool)
* Blackbox tests are maintained within the bzrlib.tests.blackbox directory.
If adding a new test script please add that to
bzrlib.tests.blackbox.__init__. (Robert Collins)
* Much better error message if one of the test suites can't be
imported. (Martin Pool)
* Tests can now run TestSkipped if they can't execute for any reason.
(Martin Pool)
INTERNALS:
* WorkingTree.pull has been split across Branch and WorkingTree,
to allow Branch only pulls. (Robert Collins)
* commands.display_command now returns the result of the decorated
function. (Robert Collins)
* LocationConfig now has a set_user_option(key, value) call to save
a setting in its matching location section (a new one is created
if needed). (Robert Collins)
* Branch has two new methods, get_push_location and set_push_location
to respectively, get and set the push location. (Robert Collins)
* commands.register_command now takes an optional flag to signal that
the registrant is planning to decorate an existing command. When
given multiple plugins registering a command is not an error, and
the original command class (whether built in or a plugin based one) is
returned to the caller. There is a new error 'MustUseDecorated' for
signalling when a wrapping command should switch to the original
version. (Robert Collins)
* Some option parsing errors will raise 'BzrOptionError', allowing
granular detection for decorating commands. (Robert Collins).
* Branch.read_working_inventory has moved to
WorkingTree.read_working_inventory. This necessitated changes to
Branch.get_root_id, and a move of Branch.set_inventory to WorkingTree
as well. To make it clear that a WorkingTree cannot always be obtained
Branch.working_tree() will raise 'errors.NoWorkingTree' if one cannot
be obtained. (Robert Collins)
* All pending merges operations from Branch are now on WorkingTree.
(Robert Collins)
* The follow operations from Branch have moved to WorkingTree:
add()
commit()
move()
rename_one()
unknowns()
(Robert Collins)
* bzrlib.add.smart_add_branch is now smart_add_tree. (Robert Collins)
* New "rio" serialization format, similar to rfc-822. (Martin Pool)
* Rename selftests to `bzrlib.tests.test_foo`. (John A Meinel, Martin
Pool)
* bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins has been changed from an attribute to a
query method. (Robert Collins)
* New options to read only the table-of-contents of a weave.
(Denys Duchier)
* Raise NoSuchFile when someone tries to add a non-existant file.
(Michael Ellerman)
* Simplify handling of DivergedBranches in cmd_pull().
(Michael Ellerman)
bzr 0.6 2005-10-28
IMPROVEMENTS:
* pull now takes --verbose to show you what revisions are added or removed
(John A Meinel)
* merge now takes a --show-base option to include the base text in
conflicts.
(Aaron Bentley)
* The config files are now read using ConfigObj, so '=' should be used as
a separator, not ':'.
(Aaron Bentley)
* New 'bzr commit --strict' option refuses to commit if there are
any unknown files in the tree. To commit, make sure all files are
either ignored, added, or deleted. (Michael Ellerman)
* The config directory is now ~/.bazaar, and there is a single file
~/.bazaar/bazaar.conf storing email, editor and other preferences.
(Robert Collins)
* 'bzr add' no longer takes a --verbose option, and a --quiet option
has been added that suppresses all output.
* Improved zsh completion support in contrib/zsh, from Clint
Adams.
* Builtin 'bzr annotate' command, by Martin Pool with improvements from
Goffredo Baroncelli.
* 'bzr check' now accepts -v for verbose reporting, and checks for
ghosts in the branch. (Robert Collins)
* New command 're-sign' which will regenerate the gpg signature for
a revision. (Robert Collins)
* If you set check_signatures=require for a path in
~/.bazaar/branches.conf then bzr will invoke your
gpg_signing_command (defaults to gpg) and record a digital signature
of your commit. (Robert Collins)
* New sftp transport, based on Paramiko. (Robey Pointer)
* 'bzr pull' now accepts '--clobber' which will discard local changes
and make this branch identical to the source branch. (Robert Collins)
* Just give a quieter warning if a plugin can't be loaded, and
put the details in .bzr.log. (Martin Pool)
* 'bzr branch' will now set the branch-name to the last component of the
output directory, if one was supplied.
* If the option 'post_commit' is set to one (or more) python function
names (must be in the bzrlib namespace), then they will be invoked
after the commit has completed, with the branch and revision_id as
parameters. (Robert Collins)
* Merge now has a retcode of 1 when conflicts occur. (Robert Collins)
* --merge-type weave is now supported for file contents. Tree-shape
changes are still three-way based. (Martin Pool, Aaron Bentley)
* 'bzr check' allows the first revision on revision-history to have
parents - something that is expected for cheap checkouts, and occurs
when conversions from baz do not have all history. (Robert Collins).
* 'bzr merge' can now graft unrelated trees together, if your specify
0 as a base. (Aaron Bentley)
* 'bzr commit branch' and 'bzr commit branch/file1 branch/file2' now work
(Aaron Bentley)
* Add '.sconsign*' to default ignore list. (Alexander Belchenko)
* 'bzr merge --reprocess' minimizes conflicts
TESTING:
* The 'bzr selftest --pattern' option for has been removed, now
test specifiers on the command line can be simple strings, or
regexps, or both. (Robert Collins)
* Passing -v to selftest will now show the time each test took to
complete, which will aid in analysing performance regressions and
related questions. (Robert Collins)
* 'bzr selftest' runs all tests, even if one fails, unless '--one'
is given. (Martin Pool)
* There is a new method for TestCaseInTempDir, assertFileEqual, which
will check that a given content is equal to the content of the named
file. (Robert Collins)
* Fix test suite's habit of leaving many temporary log files in $TMPDIR.
(Martin Pool)
INTERNALS:
* New 'testament' command and concept for making gpg-signatures
of revisions that are not tied to a particular internal
representation. (Martin Pool).
* Per-revision properties ('revprops') as key-value associated
strings on each revision created when the revision is committed.
Intended mainly for the use of external tools. (Martin Pool).
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
(Robert Collins)
* Improved command line option definitions allowing explanations
for individual options, among other things. Contributed by
Magnus Therning.
* Config options have moved from bzrlib.osutils to bzrlib.config.
Configuration is now done via the config.Config interface:
Depending on whether you have a Branch, a Location or no information
available, construct a *Config, and use its signature_checking,
username and user_email methods. (Robert Collins)
* Plugins are now loaded under bzrlib.plugins, not bzrlib.plugin, and
they are made available for other plugins to use. You should not
import other plugins during the __init__ of your plugin though, as
no ordering is guaranteed, and the plugins directory is not on the
python path. (Robert Collins)
* Branch.relpath has been moved to WorkingTree.relpath. WorkingTree no
no longer takes an inventory, rather it takes an option branch
parameter, and if None is given will open the branch at basedir
implicitly. (Robert Collins)
* Cleaner exception structure and error reporting. Suggested by
Scott James Remnant. (Martin Pool)
* Branch.remove has been moved to WorkingTree, which has also gained
lock_read, lock_write and unlock methods for convenience. (Robert
Collins)
* Two decorators, needs_read_lock and needs_write_lock have been added
to the branch module. Use these to cause a function to run in a
read or write lock respectively. (Robert Collins)
* Branch.open_containing now returns a tuple (Branch, relative-path),
which allows direct access to the common case of 'get me this file
from its branch'. (Robert Collins)
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
* 'pull' has been factored out of the command as WorkingTree.pull().
A new option to WorkingTree.pull has been added, clobber, which will
ignore diverged history and pull anyway.
(Robert Collins)
* config.Config has a 'get_user_option' call that accepts an option name.
This will be looked up in branches.conf and bazaar.conf as normal.
It is intended that this be used by plugins to support options -
options of built in programs should have specific methods on the config.
(Robert Collins)
* merge.merge_inner now has tempdir as an optional parameter. (Robert
Collins)
* Tree.kind is not recorded at the top level of the hierarchy, as it was
missing on EmptyTree, leading to a bug with merge on EmptyTrees.
(Robert Collins)
* WorkingTree.__del__ has been removed, it was non deterministic and not
doing what it was intended to. See WorkingTree.__init__ for a comment
about future directions. (Robert Collins/Martin Pool)
* bzrlib.transport.http has been modified so that only 404 urllib errors
are returned as NoSuchFile. Other exceptions will propogate as normal.
This allows debuging of actual errors. (Robert Collins)
* bzrlib.transport.Transport now accepts *ONLY* url escaped relative paths
to apis like 'put', 'get' and 'has'. This is to provide consistent
behaviour - it operates on url's only. (Robert Collins)
* Transports can register using register_lazy_transport, and they
will be loaded when first used. (Martin Pool)
* 'merge_flex' no longer calls conflict_handler.finalize(), instead that
is called by merge_inner. This is so that the conflict count can be
retrieved (and potentially manipulated) before returning to the caller
of merge_inner. Likewise 'merge' now returns the conflict count to the
caller. (Robert Collins)
* 'revision.revision_graph can handle having only partial history for
a revision - that is no revisions in the graph with no parents.
(Robert Collins).
* New builtins.branch_files uses the standard file_list rules to produce
a branch and a list of paths, relative to that branch (Aaron Bentley)
* New TestCase.addCleanup facility.
* New bzrlib.version_info tuple (similar to sys.version_info), which can
be used by programs importing bzrlib.
BUG FIXES:
* Better handling of branches in directories with non-ascii names.
(Joel Rosdahl, Panagiotis Papadakos)
* Upgrades of trees with no commits will not fail due to accessing
[-1] in the revision-history. (Andres Salomon)
bzr 0.1.1 2005-10-12
BUG FIXES:
* Fix problem in pulling over http from machines that do not
allow directories to be listed.
* Avoid harmless warning about invalid hash cache after
upgrading branch format.
PERFORMANCE:
* Avoid some unnecessary http operations in branch and pull.
bzr 0.1 2005-10-11
NOTES:
* 'bzr branch' over http initially gives a very high estimate
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
high-latency connections.
BUG FIXES:
* bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
Rob Weir.
* Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.
* When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
* Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.
* Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.
* If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
* bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
for files with only a change to their executable status.
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
Robert Collins
* HTTP tests now force off the use of http_proxy for the duration.
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.
* Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
different partial views of history.
* Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.
IMPROVEMENTS:
* 'branch' now accepts a --basis parameter which will take advantage
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
* New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
'bzr upgrade'.
* Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.
* Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
Niemeyer.
* 'bzr status' now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.
* Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands 'conflicts'
and 'resolve' have needed added, which list and remove those
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.
* 'rm' is now an alias for 'remove'.
* Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
Gustavo Niemeyer.
* 'bzr diff -r branch:URL' will now perform a diff between two branches.
Contributed by Robert Collins.
* 'bzr log' with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.
INTERNALS:
* Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
for your viewing pleasure.
* InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.
* Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
handling of such circumstances.
TESTING:
* Removed testsweet module so that tests can be run after
bzr installed by 'bzr selftest'.
* 'bzr selftest' command-line arguments can now be partial ids
of tests to run, e.g. 'bzr selftest test_weave'
bzr 0.0.9 2005-09-23
BUG FIXES:
* Fixed "branch -r" option.
* Fix remote access to branches containing non-compressed history.
(Robert Collins).
* Better reliability of http server tests. (John Arbash-Meinel)
* Merge graph maximum distance calculation fix. (Aaron Bentley)
* Various minor bug in windows support have been fixed, largely in the
test suite. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
IMPROVEMENTS:
* Status now accepts a -r argument to give status between chosen
revisions. Contributed by Heikki Paajanen.
* Revision arguments no longer use +/-/= to control ranges, instead
there is a 'before' namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
For example '$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today' will
select everything from yesterday and before today. Contributed by
Robey Pointer
* There is now a bzr.bat file created by distutils when building on
Windows. Contributed by Alexander Belchenko.
INTERNALS:
* Removed uuid() as it was unused.
* Improved 'fetch' code for pulling revisions from one branch into
another (used by pull, merged, etc.)
bzr 0.0.8 2005-09-20
IMPROVEMENTS:
* Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they'll just
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
Michael Ellerman.
* Ignore .DS_Store (contains Mac metadata) by default. Patch from
Nir Soffer.
* If you set BZR_EDITOR in the environment, it is checked in
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
for the operating system is still tried.
* Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.
INTERNALS:
* Refactor xml packing/unpacking.
BUG FIXES:
* Fixed 'bzr mv' by Ollie Rutherfurd.
* Fixed strange error when trying to access a nonexistent http
branch.
* Make sure that the hashcache gets written out if it can't be
read.
PORTABILITY:
* Various Windows fixes from Ollie Rutherfurd.
* Quieten warnings about locking; patch from Matt Lavin.
bzr-0.0.7 2005-09-02
NEW FEATURES:
* ``bzr shell-complete`` command contributed by Clint Adams to
help with intelligent shell completion.
* New expert command ``bzr find-merge-base`` for debugging merges.
ENHANCEMENTS:
* Much better merge support.
* merge3 conflicts are now reported with markers like '<<<<<<<'
(seven characters) which is the same as CVS and pleases things
like emacs smerge.
BUG FIXES:
* ``bzr upgrade`` no longer fails when trying to fix trees that
mention revisions that are not present.
* Fixed bugs in listing plugins from ``bzr plugins``.
* Fix case of $EDITOR containing options for the editor.
* Fix log -r refusing to show the last revision.
(Patch from Goffredo Baroncelli.)
CHANGES:
* ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows the revision ids of all parents.
* Externally provided commands on your $BZRPATH no longer need
to recognize --bzr-usage to work properly, and can just handle
--help themselves.
LIBRARY:
* Changed trace messages to go through the standard logging
framework, so that they can more easily be redirected by
libraries.
bzr-0.0.6 2005-08-18
NEW FEATURES:
* Python plugins, automatically loaded from the directories on
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH or ~/.bzr.conf/plugins by default.
* New 'bzr mkdir' command.
* Commit mesage is fetched from an editor if not given on the
command line; patch from Torsten Marek.
* ``bzr log -m FOO`` displays commits whose message matches regexp
FOO.
* ``bzr add`` with no arguments adds everything under the current directory.
* ``bzr mv`` does move or rename depending on its arguments, like
the Unix command.
* ``bzr missing`` command shows a summary of the differences
between two trees. (Merged from John Arbash-Meinel.)
* An email address for commits to a particular tree can be
specified by putting it into .bzr/email within a branch. (Based
on a patch from Heikki Paajanen.)
ENHANCEMENTS:
* Faster working tree operations.
CHANGES:
* 3rd-party modules shipped with bzr are copied within the bzrlib
python package, so that they can be installed by the setup
script without clashing with anything already existing on the
system. (Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.)
* Moved plugins directory to bzrlib/, so that there's a standard
plugin directory which is not only installed with bzr itself but
is also available when using bzr from the development tree.
BZR_PLUGIN_PATH and DEFAULT_PLUGIN_PATH are then added to the
standard plugins directory.
* When exporting to a tarball with ``bzr export --format tgz``, put
everything under a top directory rather than dumping it into the
current directory. This can be overridden with the ``--root``
option. Patch from William Dodé and John Meinel.
* New ``bzr upgrade`` command to upgrade the format of a branch,
replacing ``bzr check --update``.
* Files within store directories are no longer marked readonly on
disk.
* Changed ``bzr log`` output to a more compact form suggested by
John A Meinel. Old format is available with the ``--long`` or
``-l`` option, patched by William Dodé.
* By default the commit command refuses to record a revision with
no changes unless the ``--unchanged`` option is given.
* The ``--no-plugins``, ``--profile`` and ``--builtin`` command
line options must come before the command name because they
affect what commands are available; all other options must come
after the command name because their interpretation depends on
it.
* ``branch`` and ``clone`` added as aliases for ``branch``.
* Default log format is back to the long format; the compact one
is available with ``--short``.
BUG FIXES:
* Fix bugs in committing only selected files or within a subdirectory.
bzr-0.0.5 2005-06-15
CHANGES:
* ``bzr`` with no command now shows help rather than giving an
error. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.
* ``bzr status`` output format changed, because svn-style output
doesn't really match the model of bzr. Now files are grouped by
status and can be shown with their IDs. ``bzr status --all``
shows all versioned files and unknown files but not ignored files.
* ``bzr log`` runs from most-recent to least-recent, the reverse
of the previous order. The previous behaviour can be obtained
with the ``--forward`` option.
* ``bzr inventory`` by default shows only filenames, and also ids
if ``--show-ids`` is given, in which case the id is the second
field.
ENHANCEMENTS:
* New 'bzr whoami --email' option shows only the email component
of the user identification, from Jo Vermeulen.
* New ``bzr ignore PATTERN`` command.
* Nicer error message for broken pipe, interrupt and similar
conditions that don't indicate an internal error.
* Add ``.*.sw[nop] .git .*.tmp *,v`` to default ignore patterns.
* Per-branch locks keyed on ``.bzr/branch-lock``, available in
either read or write mode.
* New option ``bzr log --show-ids`` shows revision and file ids.
* New usage ``bzr log FILENAME`` shows only revisions that
affected that file.
* Changed format for describing changes in ``bzr log -v``.
* New option ``bzr commit --file`` to take a message from a file,
suggested by LarstiQ.
* New syntax ``bzr status [FILE...]`` contributed by Bartosz
Oler. File may be in a branch other than the working directory.
* ``bzr log`` and ``bzr root`` can be given an http URL instead of
a filename.
* Commands can now be defined by external programs or scripts
in a directory on $BZRPATH.
* New "stat cache" avoids reading the contents of files if they
haven't changed since the previous time.
* If the Python interpreter is too old, try to find a better one
or give an error. Based on a patch from Fredrik Lundh.
* New optional parameter ``bzr info [BRANCH]``.
* New form ``bzr commit SELECTED`` to commit only selected files.
* New form ``bzr log -r FROM:TO`` shows changes in selected
range; contributed by John A Meinel.
* New option ``bzr diff --diff-options 'OPTS'`` allows passing
options through to an external GNU diff.
* New option ``bzr add --no-recurse`` to add a directory but not
their contents.
* ``bzr --version`` now shows more information if bzr is being run
from a branch.
BUG FIXES:
* Fixed diff format so that added and removed files will be
handled properly by patch. Fix from Lalo Martins.
* Various fixes for files whose names contain spaces or other
metacharacters.
TESTING:
* Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
now run using ``./testbzr``. Various structural improvements to
the tests.
* testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.
* testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
required to check is just ``./testbzr``.
* testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
under a different version.
* Tests added for many other changes in this release.
INTERNAL:
* Included ElementTree library upgraded to 1.2.6 by Fredrik Lundh.
* Refactor command functions into Command objects based on HCT by
Scott James Remnant.
* Better help messages for many commands.
* Expose bzrlib.open_tracefile() to start the tracefile; until
this is called trace messages are just discarded.
* New internal function find_touching_revisions() and hidden
command touching-revisions trace the changes to a given file.
* Simpler and faster compare_inventories() function.
* bzrlib.open_tracefile() takes a tracefilename parameter.
* New AtomicFile class.
* New developer commands ``added``, ``modified``.
PORTABILITY:
* Cope on Windows on python2.3 by using the weaker random seed.
2.4 is now only recommended.
bzr-0.0.4 2005-04-22
ENHANCEMENTS:
* 'bzr diff' optionally takes a list of files to diff. Still a bit
basic. Patch from QuantumG.
* More default ignore patterns.
* New 'bzr log --verbose' shows a list of files changed in the
changeset. Patch from Sebastian Cote.
* Roll over ~/.bzr.log if it gets too large.
* Command abbreviations 'ci', 'st', 'stat', '?' based on a patch
by Jason Diamon.
* New 'bzr help commands' based on a patch from Denys Duchier.
CHANGES:
* User email is determined by looking at $BZREMAIL or ~/.bzr.email
or $EMAIL. All are decoded by the locale preferred encoding.
If none of these are present user@hostname is used. The host's
fully-qualified name is not used because that tends to fail when
there are DNS problems.
* New 'bzr whoami' command instead of username user-email.
BUG FIXES:
* Make commit safe for hardlinked bzr trees.
* Some Unicode/locale fixes.
* Partial workaround for difflib.unified_diff not handling
trailing newlines properly.
INTERNAL:
* Allow docstrings for help to be in PEP0257 format. Patch from
Matt Brubeck.
* More tests in test.sh.
* Write profile data to a temporary file not into working
directory and delete it when done.
* Smaller .bzr.log with process ids.
PORTABILITY:
* Fix opening of ~/.bzr.log on Windows. Patch from Andrew
Bennetts.
* Some improvements in handling paths on Windows, based on a patch
from QuantumG.
bzr-0.0.3 2005-04-06
ENHANCEMENTS:
* New "directories" internal command lists versioned directories
in the tree.
* Can now say "bzr commit --help".
* New "rename" command to rename one file to a different name
and/or directory.
* New "move" command to move one or more files into a different
directory.
* New "renames" command lists files renamed since base revision.
* New cat command contributed by janmar.
CHANGES:
* .bzr.log is placed in $HOME (not pwd) and is always written in
UTF-8. (Probably not a completely good long-term solution, but
will do for now.)
PORTABILITY:
* Workaround for difflib bug in Python 2.3 that causes an
exception when comparing empty files. Reported by Erik Toubro
Nielsen.
INTERNAL:
* Refactored inventory storage to insert a root entry at the top.
TESTING:
* Start of shell-based black-box testing in test.sh.
bzr-0.0.2.1
PORTABILITY:
* Win32 fixes from Steve Brown.
bzr-0.0.2 "black cube" 2005-03-31
ENHANCEMENTS:
* Default ignore list extended (see bzrlib/__init__.py).
* Patterns in .bzrignore are now added to the default ignore list,
rather than replacing it.
* Ignore list isn't reread for every file.
* More help topics.
* Reinstate the 'bzr check' command to check invariants of the
branch.
* New 'ignored' command lists which files are ignored and why;
'deleted' lists files deleted in the current working tree.
* Performance improvements.
* New global --profile option.
* Ignore patterns like './config.h' now correctly match files in
the root directory only.
bzr-0.0.1 2005-03-26
ENHANCEMENTS:
* More information from info command.
* Can now say "bzr help COMMAND" for more detailed help.
* Less file flushing and faster performance when writing logs and
committing to stores.
* More useful verbose output from some commands.
BUG FIXES:
* Fix inverted display of 'R' and 'M' during 'commit -v'.
PORTABILITY:
* Include a subset of ElementTree-1.2.20040618 to make
installation easier.
* Fix time.localtime call to work with Python 2.3 (the minimum
supported).
bzr-0.0.0.69 2005-03-22
ENHANCEMENTS:
* First public release.
* Storage of local versions: init, add, remove, rm, info, log,
diff, status, etc.
