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

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

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

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

134 * Added fixups hook, which can be used to run a command after
135 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
136 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
137 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
138 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

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

158 mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low

162 * Allow empty sections to be used in mrconfig files.

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

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

224 mr (0.40) unstable; urgency=low

227 merged changes. Closes: #524352

231 mr (0.39) unstable; urgency=low
233 * Determine current branch for fake-bare update (martin f. krafft)
235 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:50:54 -0400
237 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
239 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
240 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
242 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
244 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
246 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
247 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
248 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
249 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
251 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
253 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low

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

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

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

282 mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low
284 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.
286 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400
288 mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low
290 * Add an offline mode. When in offline mode, mr will remember commands
291 that failed (presumably due to lack of network access), and will run
292 them again once back online. (This is for all the laptop users
293 like me who don't want to have to remember which git repos to mr push
294 when they come back from a nice long hack in the woods. :-)

301 * Several git-fake-bare improvements.
304 * Fix mr -c <config> register. (Thanks, Daniel Bungert)

308 mr (0.29) unstable; urgency=low
310 * Allow environment variables in section headers. Pass such headers
311 through the shell to expand them. Closes: #480421
312 * For the checkout command, MR_REPO was set to the name of the parent
313 directory of the directory to checkout. It is supposed to be the
314 path to the directory itself though; fixed this. Closes: #480424

328 are no changes. Closes: #476650

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

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

407 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

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

432 Bloom. Closes: #449592

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

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

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

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