1 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
3 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
4 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
5 mark repositories that should be removed.
6 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
7 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
8 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
9 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
10 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
11 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
12 repositories. Closes: #643591
13 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
14 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
15 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
16 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

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

48 mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
50 * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
51 now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
52 * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
53 and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
54 directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963

69 * Now supports the Fossil VCS. (Thanks, Jimmy Tang)
70 * Added fixups hook, which can be used to run a command after
71 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
72 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
73 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
74 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

86 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low
88 * Fix the hours_since function built into mr's shell library to
89 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
90 used outside of skip tests.

131 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
132 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
133 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
134 and create it if necessary.
135 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
136 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

140 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
142 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
143 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
144 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
145 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.

149 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
151 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
152 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
153 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
154 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
155 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
156 to automate use of their several repositories.

173 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
175 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
176 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
178 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
180 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
182 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
183 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
184 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
185 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.

196 mr (0.35) unstable; urgency=low
198 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
199 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
200 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
201 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

211 mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low
213 * Add a push subcommand, which pushes committed changes for DCVS, and
214 does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865

224 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
226 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
227 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
228 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
229 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
230 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)

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

244 mr (0.29) unstable; urgency=low
246 * Allow environment variables in section headers. Pass such headers
247 through the shell to expand them. Closes: #480421
248 * For the checkout command, MR_REPO was set to the name of the parent
249 directory of the directory to checkout. It is supposed to be the
250 path to the directory itself though; fixed this. Closes: #480424

310 * darcs: Add -u to diff to get a more usual unified diff.
311 * Add a "record" subcommand, borrowing termonology from darcs. This does a
312 local commit, but does not push changes to remote repos.
313 * Improve unison support.

317 mr (0.19) unstable; urgency=low
319 * Support versions of man that don't use -l.
320 * Updating git repos no longer uses git-pull -t by default. Git makes it
321 to much of a PITA to do this, since -t makes git-pull require the
322 repository and refspec be specified at the command line (which is a bug in
323 git (#456035). mr used to hardcode those to "origin" and "master", but
324 that's not always the right choice. So give up on forcing git to be sane

343 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

353 * Allow -n to be passed a number to specify how deep to go into
354 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621
357 * Make -j with no argument run unlimited jobs in parallel, like make -j
361 * Add a warning about runing too many jobs at a time.

392 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
393 * Allow option bundling, mostly so "-j2" will work.
394 * Better error message if more than one repo type test matches a single

402 * Make registration work when no config file yet exists. Closes: #448422

406 mr (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
408 * Split up actions, so each rcs has its own set of action commands,
409 and mr tests to see what rcs is used by a repository, and dispatches
412 This will make it much easier to add new rcses, or modify just the
413 command that mr uses for one command for one rcs, without duplicating a
414 lot of code, and without needing to modify mr at all.
416 The old style unsplit actions are still supported, and are what most
417 mrconfig files will still use; this change is fully backwards compatible.
418 * Changed some things in the enviroment for the register action.
419 It's now run in the directory that the user specifies, and MR_REPO
420 is set to contain the basename of the directory that the checkout
421 command should check out. These changes should be backware compatible
422 to existing register actions.
423 * Add info and warning functions to the shell library. (madduck)
424 * Add git_bare and git_fake_bare rcs types to handle
425 bare and fake bare (non-bare with a detached worktree) git repositories.
426 (Diff and commit do not work yet to fake bare repos). (madduck)
427 * Add a vim modeline to preserve joey's tabbing prefs. (madduck)
428 * Add support for including one mrconfig file from another. Unlike chaining,
429 this doesn't change the paths, and is not tied to a particular
430 subdirectory. It's useful for loading up library mrconfig files.
431 * Split git fake-bare support out into a lib/git-fake-bare.
432 Partly because it's a good example of how to add a new revision control
433 type and use includes, and partly because it's currently too ugly to be
434 in mr itself due to bugs and limitations in git.

469 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
470 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
471 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
473 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
474 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
475 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
476 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
479 * Add support for mercurial.
482 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
483 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
484 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
485 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
