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

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

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

63 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
65 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
66 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
67 mark repositories that should be removed.
68 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
69 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
70 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
71 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
72 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
73 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
74 repositories. Closes: #643591
75 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
76 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
77 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
78 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

90 mr (1.03) unstable; urgency=low

93 * Now --quiet supresses all output from commands run, as well
94 as from mr, unless a command fails. Closes: #529296

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

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

143 * Use short mode status output for git and bzr.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

354 mr (0.22) unstable; urgency=low
356 * Update bzr registration code to work with current version of bzr,
357 using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

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

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

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

405 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

408 won't override it. Closes: #453305

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

430 Bloom. Closes: #449592

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

453 * Avoid using commands like git-config and instead use "git config".
454 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
455 * Allow option bundling, mostly so "-j2" will work.
456 * Better error message if more than one repo type test matches a single

461 mr (0.10) unstable; urgency=low
463 * Add a lib file for using unison with mr.
464 * Make registration work when no config file yet exists. Closes: #448422

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

531 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
532 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
533 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
535 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
536 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
537 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
538 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
541 * Add support for mercurial.
544 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
545 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
546 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
547 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
