46 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
48 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
49 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
50 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
51 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
52 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative

54 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
56 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
57 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
58 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
59 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
60 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.

73 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
75 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
76 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
77 mark repositories that should be removed.
78 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
79 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
80 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
81 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
82 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
83 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
84 repositories. Closes: #643591
85 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.

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

142 * Added fixups hook, which can be used to run a command after
143 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
144 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
145 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
146 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

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

176 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails
177 when the repo has not yet been checked out.

181 mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low

200 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
202 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
203 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
204 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
205 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
206 and create it if necessary.
207 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
208 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

212 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
214 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
215 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
216 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
217 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
219 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
221 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
223 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
224 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
225 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
226 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
227 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
228 to automate use of their several repositories.

232 mr (0.40) unstable; urgency=low

235 merged changes. Closes: #524352

239 mr (0.39) unstable; urgency=low
241 * Determine current branch for fake-bare update (martin f. krafft)

245 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
247 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
248 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
250 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
252 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
254 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
255 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
256 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
257 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
259 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
261 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low

270 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
271 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
272 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
273 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

277 mr (0.34) unstable; urgency=low
279 * Fix bug when remembering failed commands in offline mode.

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

290 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
292 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.
294 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400
296 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
298 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
299 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
300 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
301 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
302 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)

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

336 are no changes. Closes: #476650

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

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

415 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

425 * Allow -n to be passed a number to specify how deep to go into
426 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621

463 * Avoid using commands like git-config and instead use "git config".
464 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
465 * Allow option bundling, mostly so "-j2" will work.

478 mr (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
480 * Split up actions, so each rcs has its own set of action commands,
481 and mr tests to see what rcs is used by a repository, and dispatches
484 This will make it much easier to add new rcses, or modify just the
485 command that mr uses for one command for one rcs, without duplicating a
486 lot of code, and without needing to modify mr at all.
488 The old style unsplit actions are still supported, and are what most
489 mrconfig files will still use; this change is fully backwards compatible.
490 * Changed some things in the enviroment for the register action.
491 It's now run in the directory that the user specifies, and MR_REPO
492 is set to contain the basename of the directory that the checkout
493 command should check out. These changes should be backware compatible
494 to existing register actions.
495 * Add info and warning functions to the shell library. (madduck)
496 * Add git_bare and git_fake_bare rcs types to handle
497 bare and fake bare (non-bare with a detached worktree) git repositories.
498 (Diff and commit do not work yet to fake bare repos). (madduck)
499 * Add a vim modeline to preserve joey's tabbing prefs. (madduck)
500 * Add support for including one mrconfig file from another. Unlike chaining,
501 this doesn't change the paths, and is not tied to a particular
502 subdirectory. It's useful for loading up library mrconfig files.
503 * Split git fake-bare support out into a lib/git-fake-bare.
504 Partly because it's a good example of how to add a new revision control
505 type and use includes, and partly because it's currently too ugly to be
506 in mr itself due to bugs and limitations in git.

538 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
541 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
542 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
543 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
545 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
546 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
547 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
548 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
551 * Add support for mercurial.
554 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
