10 * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
11 * Support chaining to absolute paths.
12 * Add support for skip = lazy, a mode where mr only operates on repositories

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

214 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
215 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731

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

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

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

280 are no changes. Closes: #476650

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

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

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

384 Bloom. Closes: #449592

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

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

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