14 mr (1.09) unstable; urgency=low
16 * Remove dir_test hack and add a way for vcs tests to run perl code,
17 using this for the same optimisation. Fixes support for git-svn

28 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
30 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
31 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
32 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
33 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
34 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative
35 paths with more than one path segment. Thanks, Adam Spiers
36 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
38 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
39 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
40 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
41 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
42 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.

46 mr (1.06) unstable; urgency=low
48 * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
49 * Support chaining to absolute paths.
50 * Add support for skip = lazy, a mode where mr only operates on repositories

55 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
57 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
58 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
59 mark repositories that should be removed.
60 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
61 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
62 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
63 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
64 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
65 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
66 repositories. Closes: #643591
67 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
68 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
69 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
70 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

74 mr (1.04) unstable; urgency=low
76 * Improve trust errors displayed while bootstrapping. Closes: #628234
77 * Allow mr register to be used with mrconfig file that does not yet
78 exist. Closes: #629217

82 mr (1.03) unstable; urgency=low
84 * Added git-subtree library. Thanks, Svend Sorensen
85 * Now --quiet supresses all output from commands run, as well
86 as from mr, unless a command fails. Closes: #529296

96 mr (1.01) unstable; urgency=low
98 * Add "mr run", which can run an arbitrary command in each repository.

102 mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
104 * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
105 now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
106 * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
107 and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
108 directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963
110 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 19 Jan 2011 14:28:38 -0400
112 mr (0.51) unstable; urgency=low

121 mr (0.50) unstable; urgency=low
123 * Now supports the Fossil VCS. (Thanks, Jimmy Tang)
124 * Added fixups hook, which can be used to run a command after
125 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
126 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
127 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
128 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

135 * Use short mode status output for git and bzr.
136 * Typo. Closes: #586233, #588913

140 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low
142 * Fix the hours_since function built into mr's shell library to
143 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
144 used outside of skip tests.
146 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 17:12:01 -0500
148 mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low
150 * Pass -L to curl to allow it to follow redirects when bootstrapping.
152 * Allow empty sections to be used in mrconfig files.
154 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:40:29 -0500
156 mr (0.46) unstable; urgency=low
158 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails
159 when the repo has not yet been checked out.
161 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 10 Dec 2009 17:28:26 -0500
163 mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low
165 * Fix pod error. Closes: #558012
166 * bootstrap: Improve stats display.
167 * Add --insecure option that can be used to ignore SSL cert errors
168 when bootstrapping. (Pavel Avgustinov)
169 * Fix handling of a repository in "."

175 * Make mr -i pass -i to the shell, to ensure it knows it should be an
177 * mr help: Support man on SunOS and OS X. (Geoff Davis)
178 * mr bootstrap: Fix cross-device rename failure. Closes: #557962
180 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:39:08 -0500
182 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
184 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
185 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
186 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
187 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
188 and create it if necessary.
189 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
190 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
192 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
194 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
196 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
197 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
198 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
199 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
201 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
203 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
205 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
206 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
207 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
208 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
209 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
210 to automate use of their several repositories.

214 mr (0.40) unstable; urgency=low
216 * Pass --pull to bzr merge to avoid needing to commit
217 merged changes. Closes: #524352
219 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 31 Jul 2009 13:47:22 -0400
221 mr (0.39) unstable; urgency=low
223 * Determine current branch for fake-bare update (martin f. krafft)
225 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:50:54 -0400
227 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
229 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
230 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
232 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
234 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
236 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
237 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
238 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
239 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
241 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
243 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low
245 * Add webcheckout command. See <http://kitenet.net/~joey/rfc/rel-vcs/>
246 * Fix display of repos configured at absolute path locations.

250 mr (0.35) unstable; urgency=low
252 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
253 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
254 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
255 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734
257 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 16 Oct 2008 14:51:00 -0400
259 mr (0.34) unstable; urgency=low
261 * Fix bug when remembering failed commands in offline mode.
263 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 12:27:21 -0400
265 mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low
267 * Add a push subcommand, which pushes committed changes for DCVS, and
268 does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865
270 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:22:01 -0400
272 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
274 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.
276 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400
278 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
280 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
281 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
282 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
283 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
284 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)

288 mr (0.30) unstable; urgency=low
291 * Several git-fake-bare improvements.
294 * Fix mr -c <config> register. (Thanks, Daniel Bungert)

298 mr (0.29) unstable; urgency=low
300 * Allow environment variables in section headers. Pass such headers
301 through the shell to expand them. Closes: #480421
302 * For the checkout command, MR_REPO was set to the name of the parent
303 directory of the directory to checkout. It is supposed to be the
304 path to the directory itself though; fixed this. Closes: #480424
306 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 14 May 2008 19:38:18 -0400
308 mr (0.28) unstable; urgency=low
310 * Use debhelper v7, rules file minimisation.

315 mr (0.27) unstable; urgency=low
317 * Ignore exit code from darcs whatsnew, which can be nonzero if there
318 are no changes. Closes: #476650

340 mr (0.23) unstable; urgency=low

346 mr (0.22) unstable; urgency=low
348 * Update bzr registration code to work with current version of bzr,
349 using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

356 repositories. Thanks to Clifford W. Hansen and Bastian Kleineidam
357 for implementations. Closes: #462408

361 mr (0.20) unstable; urgency=low
364 * darcs: Add -u to diff to get a more usual unified diff.
365 * Add a "record" subcommand, borrowing termonology from darcs. This does a
366 local commit, but does not push changes to remote repos.
367 * Improve unison support.
369 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 02 Jan 2008 22:49:53 -0500
371 mr (0.19) unstable; urgency=low
373 * Support versions of man that don't use -l.
374 * Updating git repos no longer uses git-pull -t by default. Git makes it
375 to much of a PITA to do this, since -t makes git-pull require the
376 repository and refspec be specified at the command line (which is a bug in
377 git (#456035). mr used to hardcode those to "origin" and "master", but
378 that's not always the right choice. So give up on forcing git to be sane
379 about pulling down all tags. It's insane. Live with it, or configure your

397 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low
399 * Use LC_MESSAGES=C not LANG=C, as if the user has LC_MESSAGES set, LANG
400 won't override it. Closes: #453305

404 mr (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
407 * Allow -n to be passed a number to specify how deep to go into
408 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621
411 * Make -j with no argument run unlimited jobs in parallel, like make -j
415 * Add a warning about runing too many jobs at a time.

422 Bloom. Closes: #449592

433 mr (0.12) unstable; urgency=low
435 * Avoid creating parent directory for a checkout that will ultimately be
437 * Don't try to test the repo type when doing a checkout, that can't work
438 since the repo isn't there yet. It was actually checking the repo type
439 of the parent directory, which caused several unexpected behaviors.

443 mr (0.11) unstable; urgency=low
445 * Avoid using commands like git-config and instead use "git config".
446 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
447 * Allow option bundling, mostly so "-j2" will work.
448 * Better error message if more than one repo type test matches a single

453 mr (0.10) unstable; urgency=low
455 * Add a lib file for using unison with mr.
456 * Make registration work when no config file yet exists. Closes: #448422
458 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Sun, 28 Oct 2007 19:55:03 -0400
460 mr (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
462 * Split up actions, so each rcs has its own set of action commands,
463 and mr tests to see what rcs is used by a repository, and dispatches
466 This will make it much easier to add new rcses, or modify just the
467 command that mr uses for one command for one rcs, without duplicating a
468 lot of code, and without needing to modify mr at all.
470 The old style unsplit actions are still supported, and are what most
471 mrconfig files will still use; this change is fully backwards compatible.
472 * Changed some things in the enviroment for the register action.
473 It's now run in the directory that the user specifies, and MR_REPO
474 is set to contain the basename of the directory that the checkout
475 command should check out. These changes should be backware compatible
476 to existing register actions.
477 * Add info and warning functions to the shell library. (madduck)
478 * Add git_bare and git_fake_bare rcs types to handle
479 bare and fake bare (non-bare with a detached worktree) git repositories.
480 (Diff and commit do not work yet to fake bare repos). (madduck)
481 * Add a vim modeline to preserve joey's tabbing prefs. (madduck)
482 * Add support for including one mrconfig file from another. Unlike chaining,
483 this doesn't change the paths, and is not tied to a particular
484 subdirectory. It's useful for loading up library mrconfig files.
485 * Split git fake-bare support out into a lib/git-fake-bare.
486 Partly because it's a good example of how to add a new revision control
487 type and use includes, and partly because it's currently too ugly to be
488 in mr itself due to bugs and limitations in git.

511 (Currently only for svn and git.)

513 its calling convention. If you used the old version, the new version

520 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
523 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
524 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
525 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
527 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
528 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
529 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
530 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
533 * Add support for mercurial.
536 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
537 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
538 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
539 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!

549 * Output list of failed repos to stderr when -s is used.
550 * Fix a bug caused by a stupid typo.
551 * Add the -n switch, for disabling recursion.
552 * Allow for more complex deleted tests, such as marking a repo deleted on
