1 mr (1.07) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
3 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
4 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
5 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.

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

18 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
20 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
21 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
22 mark repositories that should be removed.
23 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
24 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
25 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
26 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
27 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
28 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
29 repositories. Closes: #643591
30 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
31 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
32 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
33 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

48 * Now --quiet supresses all output from commands run, as well
49 as from mr, unless a command fails. Closes: #529296

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

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

103 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low

106 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
107 used outside of skip tests.

148 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
149 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
150 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
151 and create it if necessary.
152 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
153 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

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

166 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
168 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
169 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
170 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
171 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
172 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
173 to automate use of their several repositories.

190 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
192 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
193 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
195 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
197 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
199 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
200 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
201 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
202 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
204 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
206 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low

216 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
217 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
218 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

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

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

261 mr (0.29) unstable; urgency=low
263 * Allow environment variables in section headers. Pass such headers
264 through the shell to expand them. Closes: #480421
265 * For the checkout command, MR_REPO was set to the name of the parent
266 directory of the directory to checkout. It is supposed to be the
267 path to the directory itself though; fixed this. Closes: #480424
269 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 14 May 2008 19:38:18 -0400

281 are no changes. Closes: #476650

324 mr (0.20) unstable; urgency=low
327 * darcs: Add -u to diff to get a more usual unified diff.
328 * Add a "record" subcommand, borrowing termonology from darcs. This does a
329 local commit, but does not push changes to remote repos.
330 * Improve unison support.

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

360 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

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

385 Bloom. Closes: #449592

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

416 mr (0.10) unstable; urgency=low
418 * Add a lib file for using unison with mr.
419 * Make registration work when no config file yet exists. Closes: #448422
421 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Sun, 28 Oct 2007 19:55:03 -0400
423 mr (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
425 * Split up actions, so each rcs has its own set of action commands,
426 and mr tests to see what rcs is used by a repository, and dispatches
429 This will make it much easier to add new rcses, or modify just the
430 command that mr uses for one command for one rcs, without duplicating a
431 lot of code, and without needing to modify mr at all.
433 The old style unsplit actions are still supported, and are what most
434 mrconfig files will still use; this change is fully backwards compatible.
435 * Changed some things in the enviroment for the register action.
436 It's now run in the directory that the user specifies, and MR_REPO
437 is set to contain the basename of the directory that the checkout
438 command should check out. These changes should be backware compatible
439 to existing register actions.
440 * Add info and warning functions to the shell library. (madduck)
441 * Add git_bare and git_fake_bare rcs types to handle
442 bare and fake bare (non-bare with a detached worktree) git repositories.
443 (Diff and commit do not work yet to fake bare repos). (madduck)
444 * Add a vim modeline to preserve joey's tabbing prefs. (madduck)
445 * Add support for including one mrconfig file from another. Unlike chaining,
446 this doesn't change the paths, and is not tied to a particular
447 subdirectory. It's useful for loading up library mrconfig files.
448 * Split git fake-bare support out into a lib/git-fake-bare.
449 Partly because it's a good example of how to add a new revision control
450 type and use includes, and partly because it's currently too ugly to be
451 in mr itself due to bugs and limitations in git.

483 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
486 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
487 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
488 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
490 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
491 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
492 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
493 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
496 * Add support for mercurial.
499 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
500 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
501 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
502 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
