1 mr (1.09) unstable; urgency=low
3 * Remove dir_test hack and add a way for vcs tests to run perl code,
4 using this for the same optimisation. Fixes support for git-svn
7 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 16 Dec 2011 13:29:40 -0400
9 mr (1.08) unstable; urgency=low
11 * Fix vcs test code. Closes: #651976
13 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:21:19 -0400
15 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
17 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
18 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
19 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
20 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
21 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative
22 paths with more than one path segment. Thanks, Adam Spiers
23 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
25 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
26 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
27 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
28 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
29 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.

33 mr (1.06) unstable; urgency=low
35 * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
36 * Support chaining to absolute paths.
37 * Add support for skip = lazy, a mode where mr only operates on repositories
40 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 04 Nov 2011 17:03:17 -0400
42 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
44 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
45 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
46 mark repositories that should be removed.
47 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
48 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
49 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
50 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
51 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
52 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
53 repositories. Closes: #643591
54 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
55 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
56 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
57 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

63 * Improve trust errors displayed while bootstrapping. Closes: #628234

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

83 mr (1.01) unstable; urgency=low
85 * Add "mr run", which can run an arbitrary command in each repository.
87 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 20 Jan 2011 16:50:49 -0400
89 mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
91 * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
92 now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
93 * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
94 and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
95 directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963
97 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 19 Jan 2011 14:28:38 -0400
99 mr (0.51) unstable; urgency=low
101 * Fix display when absolute directories are configured in mrconfig.
102 * Add push to manpage synopsis. Closes: #603029

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

122 * Use short mode status output for git and bzr.
123 * Typo. Closes: #586233, #588913

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

135 mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low
137 * Pass -L to curl to allow it to follow redirects when bootstrapping.
139 * Allow empty sections to be used in mrconfig files.

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

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

162 * Make mr -i pass -i to the shell, to ensure it knows it should be an
164 * mr help: Support man on SunOS and OS X. (Geoff Davis)
165 * mr bootstrap: Fix cross-device rename failure. Closes: #557962

169 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
171 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
172 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
173 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
174 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
175 and create it if necessary.
176 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
177 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
179 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
181 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
183 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
184 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
185 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
186 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
188 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
190 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
192 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
193 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
194 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
195 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
196 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
197 to automate use of their several repositories.

201 mr (0.40) unstable; urgency=low
203 * Pass --pull to bzr merge to avoid needing to commit
204 merged changes. Closes: #524352
206 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 31 Jul 2009 13:47:22 -0400
208 mr (0.39) unstable; urgency=low
210 * Determine current branch for fake-bare update (martin f. krafft)
212 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:50:54 -0400
214 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
216 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
217 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
219 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
221 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
223 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
224 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
225 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
226 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
228 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
230 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low
232 * Add webcheckout command. See <http://kitenet.net/~joey/rfc/rel-vcs/>
233 * Fix display of repos configured at absolute path locations.

237 mr (0.35) unstable; urgency=low
239 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
240 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
241 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
242 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734
244 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 16 Oct 2008 14:51:00 -0400
246 mr (0.34) unstable; urgency=low
248 * Fix bug when remembering failed commands in offline mode.
250 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 12:27:21 -0400
252 mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low
254 * Add a push subcommand, which pushes committed changes for DCVS, and
255 does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865
257 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:22:01 -0400
259 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
261 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.
263 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400
265 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
267 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
268 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
269 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
270 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
271 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)
273 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 27 Jun 2008 23:19:23 -0400
275 mr (0.30) unstable; urgency=low
278 * Several git-fake-bare improvements.
281 * Fix mr -c <config> register. (Thanks, Daniel Bungert)

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

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

309 mr (0.26) unstable; urgency=low
311 * Add -i option to start a shell if an operation fails. Closes: #474962

335 * Update bzr registration code to work with current version of bzr,
336 using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

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

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

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

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

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

409 Bloom. Closes: #449592

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

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

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

498 (Currently only for svn and git.)

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

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