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

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

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

137 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
138 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
139 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update

152 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low

155 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
156 used outside of skip tests.

197 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
198 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
199 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
200 and create it if necessary.
201 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
202 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
204 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
206 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
208 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
209 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
210 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
211 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.

215 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
217 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
218 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
219 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
220 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
221 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
222 to automate use of their several repositories.

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

265 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
266 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
267 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

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

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

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

312 * Allow environment variables in section headers. Pass such headers
313 through the shell to expand them. Closes: #480421
314 * For the checkout command, MR_REPO was set to the name of the parent
315 directory of the directory to checkout. It is supposed to be the
316 path to the directory itself though; fixed this. Closes: #480424

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

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

419 * Allow -n to be passed a number to specify how deep to go into
420 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621

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

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

536 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
537 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
539 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
540 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
541 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
542 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
545 * Add support for mercurial.
548 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
549 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
550 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
551 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
