62 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
64 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
65 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
66 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
67 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
68 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative
69 paths with more than one path segment. Thanks, Adam Spiers
70 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
72 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
73 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
74 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
75 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"

89 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
91 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
92 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
93 mark repositories that should be removed.
94 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
95 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
96 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
97 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
98 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
99 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
100 repositories. Closes: #643591
101 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
102 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.

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

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

174 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low
176 * Fix the hours_since function built into mr's shell library to
177 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be

219 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
220 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
221 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
222 and create it if necessary.
223 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
224 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

228 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
230 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
231 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
232 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
233 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.

237 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
239 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
240 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
241 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
242 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
243 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
244 to automate use of their several repositories.

261 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
263 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
264 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..

268 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
270 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
271 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
272 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
273 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.

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

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

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

398 * darcs: Add -u to diff to get a more usual unified diff.

407 * Support versions of man that don't use -l.
408 * Updating git repos no longer uses git-pull -t by default. Git makes it
409 to much of a PITA to do this, since -t makes git-pull require the
410 repository and refspec be specified at the command line (which is a bug in
411 git (#456035). mr used to hardcode those to "origin" and "master", but
412 that's not always the right choice. So give up on forcing git to be sane

442 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621

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

557 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
558 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
559 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
561 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
562 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
563 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
564 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
567 * Add support for mercurial.
570 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
571 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
572 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
573 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!

577 mr (0.4) unstable; urgency=low
579 * Fix mr register of a subdir to also work with -c.
580 * Signal handling for commands run by mr, including handling of SIGINT
582 * Ensure parent dirs exist prior to checkout. (madduck)
583 * Output list of failed repos to stderr when -s is used.
584 * Fix a bug caused by a stupid typo.
585 * Add the -n switch, for disabling recursion.
586 * Allow for more complex deleted tests, such as marking a repo deleted on
587 some hosts, while not on others.
588 * Support registering CVS repositories. Closes: #447171
589 * MR_CONFIG now points to the config file that contains the repo mr is
591 * Make mr register smarter about what mrconfig file to write to.
592 (It probably does what you'd expect it to do now; if it doesn't, -c
