7 mr (1.09) unstable; urgency=low
9 * Remove dir_test hack and add a way for vcs tests to run perl code,
10 using this for the same optimisation. Fixes support for git-svn

21 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
23 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
24 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
25 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
26 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
27 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative
28 paths with more than one path segment. Thanks, Adam Spiers
29 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
31 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
32 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
33 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
34 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
35 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.

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

48 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
50 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
51 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
52 mark repositories that should be removed.
53 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
54 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
55 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
56 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
57 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
58 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
59 repositories. Closes: #643591
60 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
61 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
62 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
63 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

69 * Improve trust errors displayed while bootstrapping. Closes: #628234
70 * Allow mr register to be used with mrconfig file that does not yet
71 exist. Closes: #629217

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

89 mr (1.01) unstable; urgency=low
91 * Add "mr run", which can run an arbitrary command in each repository.
93 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 20 Jan 2011 16:50:49 -0400
95 mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
97 * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
98 now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
99 * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
100 and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
101 directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963

114 mr (0.50) unstable; urgency=low
116 * Now supports the Fossil VCS. (Thanks, Jimmy Tang)
117 * Added fixups hook, which can be used to run a command after
118 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
119 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
120 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
121 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

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

141 mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low

149 mr (0.46) unstable; urgency=low
151 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails
152 when the repo has not yet been checked out.

156 mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low
158 * Fix pod error. Closes: #558012
159 * bootstrap: Improve stats display.
160 * Add --insecure option that can be used to ignore SSL cert errors
161 when bootstrapping. (Pavel Avgustinov)
162 * Fix handling of a repository in "."

178 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
179 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
180 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
181 and create it if necessary.
182 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
183 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
185 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
187 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
189 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
190 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
191 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
192 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
194 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
196 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
198 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
199 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
200 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
201 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
202 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
203 to automate use of their several repositories.

210 merged changes. Closes: #524352

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

220 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
222 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
223 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
225 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
227 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
229 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
230 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
231 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
232 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
234 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
236 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low
238 * Add webcheckout command. See <http://kitenet.net/~joey/rfc/rel-vcs/>
239 * Fix display of repos configured at absolute path locations.

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

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

258 mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low
260 * Add a push subcommand, which pushes committed changes for DCVS, and
261 does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865
263 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:22:01 -0400
265 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
267 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.
269 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400
271 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
273 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
274 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
275 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
276 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
277 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)

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

291 mr (0.29) unstable; urgency=low
293 * Allow environment variables in section headers. Pass such headers
294 through the shell to expand them. Closes: #480421
295 * For the checkout command, MR_REPO was set to the name of the parent
296 directory of the directory to checkout. It is supposed to be the
297 path to the directory itself though; fixed this. Closes: #480424
299 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 14 May 2008 19:38:18 -0400
301 mr (0.28) unstable; urgency=low
303 * Use debhelper v7, rules file minimisation.

308 mr (0.27) unstable; urgency=low
310 * Ignore exit code from darcs whatsnew, which can be nonzero if there
311 are no changes. Closes: #476650

321 mr (0.25) unstable; urgency=low
323 * git-fake-bare: Add support for diff, commit, and record. (madduck)

333 mr (0.23) unstable; urgency=low

337 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 05 Feb 2008 13:26:05 -0500
339 mr (0.22) unstable; urgency=low
341 * Update bzr registration code to work with current version of bzr,
342 using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

349 repositories. Thanks to Clifford W. Hansen and Bastian Kleineidam
350 for implementations. Closes: #462408

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

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

390 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low
392 * Use LC_MESSAGES=C not LANG=C, as if the user has LC_MESSAGES set, LANG
393 won't override it. Closes: #453305

397 mr (0.15) unstable; urgency=low
400 * Allow -n to be passed a number to specify how deep to go into
401 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621
404 * Make -j with no argument run unlimited jobs in parallel, like make -j
408 * Add a warning about runing too many jobs at a time.

415 Bloom. Closes: #449592

428 * Avoid creating parent directory for a checkout that will ultimately be
430 * Don't try to test the repo type when doing a checkout, that can't work
431 since the repo isn't there yet. It was actually checking the repo type
432 of the parent directory, which caused several unexpected behaviors.

436 mr (0.11) unstable; urgency=low
438 * Avoid using commands like git-config and instead use "git config".
439 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
440 * Allow option bundling, mostly so "-j2" will work.
441 * Better error message if more than one repo type test matches a single

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

504 (Currently only for svn and git.)

506 its calling convention. If you used the old version, the new version

513 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
516 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
517 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
518 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
520 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
521 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
522 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
523 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
526 * Add support for mercurial.
529 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
530 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
531 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
532 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
