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

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

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

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

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

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

157 mr (0.47) unstable; urgency=low
159 * Pass -L to curl to allow it to follow redirects when bootstrapping.
161 * Allow empty sections to be used in mrconfig files.

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

172 mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low

187 * mr bootstrap: Fix cross-device rename failure. Closes: #557962

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

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

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

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

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

327 are no changes. Closes: #476650

358 using bzr info to get the url. Closes: #463867

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

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

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

406 mr (0.16) unstable; urgency=low

409 won't override it. Closes: #453305

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

431 Bloom. Closes: #449592

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

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

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

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