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

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

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

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

144 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
145 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
146 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
147 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

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

177 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails

201 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
203 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
204 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
205 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
206 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
207 and create it if necessary.
208 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
209 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
211 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
213 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
215 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
216 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
217 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
218 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
220 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
222 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
224 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
225 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
226 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
227 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
228 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
229 to automate use of their several repositories.

236 merged changes. Closes: #524352

242 * Determine current branch for fake-bare update (martin f. krafft)

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

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

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

291 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
293 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.

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

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

337 are no changes. Closes: #476650

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

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

416 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

427 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621

465 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.

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

542 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
543 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
544 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
546 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
547 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
548 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
549 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
552 * Add support for mercurial.
555 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
556 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
