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

16 mr (1.06) unstable; urgency=low
18 * Fix propigation of failure from pre and post hooks and from fixups.
19 * Support chaining to absolute paths.
20 * Add support for skip = lazy, a mode where mr only operates on repositories

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

55 * Now --quiet supresses all output from commands run, as well
56 as from mr, unless a command fails. Closes: #529296

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

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

110 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low

113 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
114 used outside of skip tests.

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

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

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

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

223 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731

235 mr (0.33) unstable; urgency=low

238 does nothing for svn/cvs. Closes: #491865

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

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

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

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

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

385 * Add a warning about runing too many jobs at a time.

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

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

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