1 mr (1.07) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
3 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
4 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
5 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
6 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
7 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative
8 paths with more than one path segment. (Thanks, Adam Spiers)
9 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
12 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
13 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
14 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
15 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.

19 mr (1.06) unstable; urgency=low
21 * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
22 * Support chaining to absolute paths.

28 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
30 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
31 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
32 mark repositories that should be removed.
33 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
34 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
35 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
36 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
37 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
38 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
39 repositories. Closes: #643591
40 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
41 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.
42 * git-fake-bare: handle fake bare repositories with core.bare not set
43 (Thanks, Julien Rebetez)

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

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

116 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be

158 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
159 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
160 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
161 and create it if necessary.
162 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
163 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

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

176 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
178 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
179 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
180 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
181 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
182 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
183 to automate use of their several repositories.

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

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

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

337 * darcs: Add -u to diff to get a more usual unified diff.
338 * Add a "record" subcommand, borrowing termonology from darcs. This does a
339 local commit, but does not push changes to remote repos.

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

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

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

433 mr (0.9) unstable; urgency=low
435 * Split up actions, so each rcs has its own set of action commands,
436 and mr tests to see what rcs is used by a repository, and dispatches
439 This will make it much easier to add new rcses, or modify just the
440 command that mr uses for one command for one rcs, without duplicating a
441 lot of code, and without needing to modify mr at all.
443 The old style unsplit actions are still supported, and are what most
444 mrconfig files will still use; this change is fully backwards compatible.
445 * Changed some things in the enviroment for the register action.
446 It's now run in the directory that the user specifies, and MR_REPO
447 is set to contain the basename of the directory that the checkout
448 command should check out. These changes should be backware compatible
449 to existing register actions.
450 * Add info and warning functions to the shell library. (madduck)
451 * Add git_bare and git_fake_bare rcs types to handle
452 bare and fake bare (non-bare with a detached worktree) git repositories.
453 (Diff and commit do not work yet to fake bare repos). (madduck)
454 * Add a vim modeline to preserve joey's tabbing prefs. (madduck)
455 * Add support for including one mrconfig file from another. Unlike chaining,
456 this doesn't change the paths, and is not tied to a particular
457 subdirectory. It's useful for loading up library mrconfig files.
458 * Split git fake-bare support out into a lib/git-fake-bare.
459 Partly because it's a good example of how to add a new revision control
460 type and use includes, and partly because it's currently too ugly to be
461 in mr itself due to bugs and limitations in git.

496 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
497 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
498 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
500 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
501 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
502 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
503 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
506 * Add support for mercurial.
509 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
510 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
511 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
512 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
