mr (1.06) UNRELEASED; urgency=low

  * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
  * Support chaining to absolute paths.
  * Add support for skip = lazy, a mode where mr only operates on repositories
    that are checked out.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 27 Oct 2011 12:18:43 -0400

mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 27 Sep 2011 17:28:35 -0400

mr (1.04) unstable; urgency=low

  * Improve trust errors displayed while bootstrapping. Closes: #628234
  * Allow mr register to be used with mrconfig file that does not yet
    exist. Closes: #629217

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 19 Jun 2011 15:52:42 -0400

mr (1.03) unstable; urgency=low

  * Added git-subtree library. Thanks, Svend Sorensen
  * Now --quiet supresses all output from commands run, as well
    as from mr, unless a command fails. Closes: #529296

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 01 May 2011 19:09:35 -0400

mr (1.02) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix bug in escaping.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sat, 22 Jan 2011 01:18:23 -0400

mr (1.01) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add "mr run", which can run an arbitrary command in each repository.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 20 Jan 2011 16:50:49 -0400

mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low

  * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
    now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
  * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
    and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
    directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 19 Jan 2011 14:28:38 -0400

mr (0.51) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix display when absolute directories are configured in mrconfig.
  * Add push to manpage synopsis. Closes: #603029
  * Do not return a nonzero exit status when all repositories were skipped.
    Closes: #607287

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 16 Dec 2010 12:53:32 -0400

mr (0.50) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 29 Aug 2010 15:00:01 -0400

mr (0.49) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update suggests for git-core to git transition.
  * Use short mode status output for git and bzr.
  * Typo. Closes: #586233, #588913

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 18 Jul 2010 23:08:06 -0400

mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix the hours_since function built into mr's shell library to
    not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
    used outside of skip tests.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 05 Feb 2010 17:12:01 -0500

mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low

  * Pass -L to curl to allow it to follow redirects when bootstrapping.
    (Pavel Avgustinov)
  * Allow empty sections to be used in mrconfig files.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:40:29 -0500

mr (0.46) unstable; urgency=low

  * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails
    when the repo has not yet been checked out.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 10 Dec 2009 17:28:26 -0500

mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix pod error. Closes: #558012
  * bootstrap: Improve stats display.
  * Add --insecure option that can be used to ignore SSL cert errors
    when bootstrapping. (Pavel Avgustinov)
  * Fix handling of a repository in "."

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 08 Dec 2009 14:58:21 -0500

mr (0.44) unstable; urgency=low

  * Make mr -i pass -i to the shell, to ensure it knows it should be an
    interactive shell.
  * mr help: Support man on SunOS and OS X. (Geoff Davis)
  * mr bootstrap: Fix cross-device rename failure. Closes: #557962

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 25 Nov 2009 12:39:08 -0500

mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low

  * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
    with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
  * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
  * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
    and create it if necessary.
  * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
    check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400

mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
    files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
    as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
    security when using mrconfig files provided by others.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400

mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
    parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
  * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
    in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
    in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
    to automate use of their several repositories.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 06 Aug 2009 22:38:58 -0400

mr (0.40) unstable; urgency=low

  * Pass --pull to bzr merge to avoid needing to commit
    merged changes. Closes: #524352

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 31 Jul 2009 13:47:22 -0400

mr (0.39) unstable; urgency=low

  * Determine current branch for fake-bare update (martin f. krafft)

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Mon, 09 Mar 2009 22:50:54 -0400

mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low

  * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
    use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500

mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add "gitless" file to lib. 
    This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
    is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
  * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500

mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add webcheckout command. See <http://kitenet.net/~joey/rfc/rel-vcs/>
  * Fix display of repos configured at absolute path locations.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sat, 10 Jan 2009 16:42:07 -0500

mr (0.35) unstable; urgency=low

  * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
  * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
  * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
  * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 16 Oct 2008 14:51:00 -0400

mr (0.34) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix bug when remembering failed commands in offline mode.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sat, 02 Aug 2008 12:27:21 -0400

mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add a push subcommand, which pushes committed changes for DCVS, and 
    does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 22 Jul 2008 15:22:01 -0400

mr (0.32) unstable; urgency=low

  * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 22 Jul 2008 00:28:55 -0400

mr (0.31) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 27 Jun 2008 23:19:23 -0400

mr (0.30) unstable; urgency=low

  [ martin f. krafft ]
  * Several git-fake-bare improvements.

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Fix mr -c <config> register. (Thanks, Daniel Bungert)

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 25 Jun 2008 13:38:31 -0400

mr (0.29) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 14 May 2008 19:38:18 -0400

mr (0.28) unstable; urgency=low

  * Use debhelper v7, rules file minimisation.
  * Add a Makefile.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 23 Apr 2008 21:56:06 -0400

mr (0.27) unstable; urgency=low

  * Ignore exit code from darcs whatsnew, which can be nonzero if there
    are no changes. Closes: #476650

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sat, 19 Apr 2008 16:47:04 -0400

mr (0.26) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add -i option to start a shell if an operation fails. Closes: #474962

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 08 Apr 2008 20:58:44 -0400

mr (0.25) unstable; urgency=low

  * git-fake-bare: Add support for diff, commit, and record. (madduck)

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Mon, 10 Mar 2008 15:56:17 -0400

mr (0.24) unstable; urgency=low

  * Correct GIT_CONFIG settings in git-svn. Closes: #463941

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 06 Feb 2008 13:04:30 -0500

mr (0.23) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix tests in git-svn include file to use MR_REPO. Closes: #463941

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 05 Feb 2008 13:26:05 -0500

mr (0.22) unstable; urgency=low

  * Update bzr registration code to work with current version of bzr,
    using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 03 Feb 2008 17:04:59 -0500

mr (0.21) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add a git-svn file, which can be included to add support for git-svn
    repositories. Thanks to Clifford W. Hansen and Bastian Kleineidam
    for implementations. Closes: #462408

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 24 Jan 2008 13:45:05 -0500

mr (0.20) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 02 Jan 2008 22:49:53 -0500

mr (0.19) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 12 Dec 2007 21:30:45 -0500

mr (0.18) unstable; urgency=low

  * darcs: Use record subcommand, there is no commit subcommand. Closes: #453501
  * darcs: De-p register code. Closes: #453502

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 29 Nov 2007 17:48:09 -0500

mr (0.17) unstable; urgency=low

  * Even bigger hammer: Set LC_ALL. Closes: #453305

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 29 Nov 2007 11:18:40 -0500

mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

  * Use LC_MESSAGES=C not LANG=C, as if the user has LC_MESSAGES set, LANG
    won't override it. Closes: #453305

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 28 Nov 2007 15:46:38 -0500

mr (0.15) unstable; urgency=low

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

  [ Josh Triplett ]
  * Make -j with no argument run unlimited jobs in parallel, like make -j
    Closes: #452467

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Add a warning about runing too many jobs at a time.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 25 Nov 2007 13:13:47 -0500

mr (0.14) unstable; urgency=low

  * Portability fixes for the non-POSIX shell of SunOS 5. Patch from Ken
    Bloom. Closes: #449592
  * Cut number of rcs tests run in half.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 11 Nov 2007 01:10:18 -0500

mr (0.13) unstable; urgency=low

  * -c was broken, fix. Closes: #449539

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 06 Nov 2007 11:39:04 -0500

mr (0.12) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sat, 03 Nov 2007 14:22:00 -0400

mr (0.11) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 02 Nov 2007 23:28:52 -0400

mr (0.10) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add a lib file for using unison with mr.
  * Make registration work when no config file yet exists. Closes: #448422

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 28 Oct 2007 19:55:03 -0400

mr (0.9) unstable; urgency=low

  * Split up actions, so each rcs has its own set of action commands,
    and mr tests to see what rcs is used by a repository, and dispatches
    the command.

    This will make it much easier to add new rcses, or modify just the
    command that mr uses for one command for one rcs, without duplicating a
    lot of code, and without needing to modify mr at all.

    The old style unsplit actions are still supported, and are what most
    mrconfig files will still use; this change is fully backwards compatible.
  * Changed some things in the enviroment for the register action.
    It's now run in the directory that the user specifies, and MR_REPO
    is set to contain the basename of the directory that the checkout
    command should check out. These changes should be backware compatible
    to existing register actions.
  * Add info and warning functions to the shell library. (madduck)
  * Add git_bare and git_fake_bare rcs types to handle
    bare and fake bare (non-bare with a detached worktree) git repositories.
    (Diff and commit do not work yet to fake bare repos). (madduck)
  * Add a vim modeline to preserve joey's tabbing prefs. (madduck)
  * Add support for including one mrconfig file from another. Unlike chaining,
    this doesn't change the paths, and is not tied to a particular
    subdirectory. It's useful for loading up library mrconfig files.
  * Split git fake-bare support out into a lib/git-fake-bare.
    Partly because it's a good example of how to add a new revision control
    type and use includes, and partly because it's currently too ugly to be
    in mr itself due to bugs and limitations in git.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Fri, 26 Oct 2007 03:00:40 -0400

mr (0.8) unstable; urgency=low

  * Improve "in subdir" message.
  * Patch from Simon McVittie, to pass -a to darcs commands to avoid
    interactive updates. Closes: #447999

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 25 Oct 2007 06:22:45 -0400

mr (0.7) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix inverted tests in tags command. (madduck)
  * Patch from Simon McVittie, adding support for darcs repositories.
    Closes: #447729

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 24 Oct 2007 01:18:27 -0400

mr (0.6) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add to the example mrconfig a "tags" command that lists tags.
    (Currently only for svn and git.)
  * hours_since was broken by design, and fixing it involved changing
    its calling convention. If you used the old version, the new version
    will error out.
  * Add ability to reorder repos, if you want mr to act on a given repo first
    or last.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 21 Oct 2007 21:53:28 -0400

mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
    thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
    it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
    for an example.
  * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
  * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
    are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
    for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.

  [ Alexander Wirt ]
  * Add support for mercurial.

  [ Joey Hess ]
  * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
    multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
    This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
    12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 21 Oct 2007 01:27:23 -0400

mr (0.4) unstable; urgency=low

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

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Thu, 18 Oct 2007 16:20:34 -0400

mr (0.3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Add a check to make sure the expected directory exists after checkout.
  * mr register will now write to whatever config file is specified with -c
  * Typo fixes from madduck.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Wed, 17 Oct 2007 12:48:55 -0400

mr (0.2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Fix line number display for config file parse errors.
  * Fix a bug in inheritance of default settings in chained .mrconfig files.
  * Add the -s option.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Tue, 16 Oct 2007 02:39:08 -0400

mr (0.1) unstable; urgency=low

  * First release.

 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>  Sun, 14 Oct 2007 14:14:40 -0400
