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

21 mr (1.08) unstable; urgency=low
23 * Fix vcs test code. Closes: #651976
25 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:21:19 -0400
27 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
29 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
30 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
31 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
32 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
33 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative
34 paths with more than one path segment. Thanks, Adam Spiers
35 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
37 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
38 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
39 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
40 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
41 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.
43 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Mon, 12 Dec 2011 15:52:16 -0400
45 mr (1.06) unstable; urgency=low
47 * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
48 * Support chaining to absolute paths.
49 * Add support for skip = lazy, a mode where mr only operates on repositories
52 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 04 Nov 2011 17:03:17 -0400
54 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
56 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
57 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
58 mark repositories that should be removed.
59 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
60 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
61 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
62 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
63 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
64 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
65 repositories. Closes: #643591
66 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
67 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
68 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
69 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

73 mr (1.04) unstable; urgency=low
75 * Improve trust errors displayed while bootstrapping. Closes: #628234
76 * Allow mr register to be used with mrconfig file that does not yet
77 exist. Closes: #629217

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

95 mr (1.01) unstable; urgency=low
97 * Add "mr run", which can run an arbitrary command in each repository.
99 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 20 Jan 2011 16:50:49 -0400
101 mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
103 * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
104 now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
105 * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
106 and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
107 directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963
109 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 19 Jan 2011 14:28:38 -0400
111 mr (0.51) unstable; urgency=low
113 * Fix display when absolute directories are configured in mrconfig.
114 * Add push to manpage synopsis. Closes: #603029
115 * Do not return a nonzero exit status when all repositories were skipped.

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

131 mr (0.49) unstable; urgency=low
133 * Update suggests for git-core to git transition.
134 * Use short mode status output for git and bzr.
135 * Typo. Closes: #586233, #588913

139 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low
141 * Fix the hours_since function built into mr's shell library to
142 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
143 used outside of skip tests.
145 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 17:12:01 -0500
147 mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low
149 * Pass -L to curl to allow it to follow redirects when bootstrapping.
151 * Allow empty sections to be used in mrconfig files.
153 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:40:29 -0500
155 mr (0.46) unstable; urgency=low
157 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails
158 when the repo has not yet been checked out.
160 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 10 Dec 2009 17:28:26 -0500
162 mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low
164 * Fix pod error. Closes: #558012
165 * bootstrap: Improve stats display.
166 * Add --insecure option that can be used to ignore SSL cert errors
167 when bootstrapping. (Pavel Avgustinov)
168 * Fix handling of a repository in "."

172 mr (0.44) unstable; urgency=low
174 * Make mr -i pass -i to the shell, to ensure it knows it should be an
176 * mr help: Support man on SunOS and OS X. (Geoff Davis)
177 * mr bootstrap: Fix cross-device rename failure. Closes: #557962
179 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:39:08 -0500
181 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
183 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
184 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
185 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
186 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
187 and create it if necessary.
188 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
189 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
191 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
193 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
195 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
196 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
197 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
198 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
200 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
202 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
204 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
205 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
206 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
207 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
208 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
209 to automate use of their several repositories.

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

249 mr (0.35) unstable; urgency=low
251 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
252 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
253 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
254 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734
256 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 16 Oct 2008 14:51:00 -0400
258 mr (0.34) unstable; urgency=low
260 * Fix bug when remembering failed commands in offline mode.
262 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Sat, 02 Aug 2008 12:27:21 -0400
264 mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low
266 * Add a push subcommand, which pushes committed changes for DCVS, and
267 does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865
269 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:22:01 -0400
271 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
273 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.
275 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400
277 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
279 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
280 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
281 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
282 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
283 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)

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

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

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

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

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

333 mr (0.24) unstable; urgency=low
335 * Correct GIT_CONFIG settings in git-svn. Closes: #463941

339 mr (0.23) unstable; urgency=low
341 * Fix tests in git-svn include file to use MR_REPO. Closes: #463941
343 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 05 Feb 2008 13:26:05 -0500
345 mr (0.22) unstable; urgency=low
347 * Update bzr registration code to work with current version of bzr,
348 using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

352 mr (0.21) unstable; urgency=low
354 * Add a git-svn file, which can be included to add support for git-svn
355 repositories. Thanks to Clifford W. Hansen and Bastian Kleineidam
356 for implementations. Closes: #462408

360 mr (0.20) unstable; urgency=low
363 * darcs: Add -u to diff to get a more usual unified diff.
364 * Add a "record" subcommand, borrowing termonology from darcs. This does a
365 local commit, but does not push changes to remote repos.
366 * Improve unison support.
368 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 02 Jan 2008 22:49:53 -0500
370 mr (0.19) unstable; urgency=low
372 * Support versions of man that don't use -l.
373 * Updating git repos no longer uses git-pull -t by default. Git makes it
374 to much of a PITA to do this, since -t makes git-pull require the
375 repository and refspec be specified at the command line (which is a bug in
376 git (#456035). mr used to hardcode those to "origin" and "master", but
377 that's not always the right choice. So give up on forcing git to be sane
378 about pulling down all tags. It's insane. Live with it, or configure your

386 * darcs: De-p register code. Closes: #453502

390 mr (0.17) unstable; urgency=low
392 * Even bigger hammer: Set LC_ALL. Closes: #453305

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

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

418 mr (0.14) unstable; urgency=low
420 * Portability fixes for the non-POSIX shell of SunOS 5. Patch from Ken
421 Bloom. Closes: #449592
422 * Cut number of rcs tests run in half.

432 mr (0.12) unstable; urgency=low
434 * Avoid creating parent directory for a checkout that will ultimately be
436 * Don't try to test the repo type when doing a checkout, that can't work
437 since the repo isn't there yet. It was actually checking the repo type
438 of the parent directory, which caused several unexpected behaviors.

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

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

491 mr (0.8) unstable; urgency=low

509 * Add to the example mrconfig a "tags" command that lists tags.
510 (Currently only for svn and git.)

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

519 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
522 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
523 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
524 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
526 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
527 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
528 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
529 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
532 * Add support for mercurial.
535 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
536 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
537 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
538 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!

544 * Fix mr register of a subdir to also work with -c.
545 * Signal handling for commands run by mr, including handling of SIGINT
547 * Ensure parent dirs exist prior to checkout. (madduck)
548 * Output list of failed repos to stderr when -s is used.
549 * Fix a bug caused by a stupid typo.
550 * Add the -n switch, for disabling recursion.
551 * Allow for more complex deleted tests, such as marking a repo deleted on
552 some hosts, while not on others.
