56 mr (1.07) unstable; urgency=low
58 * Added support for vcsh, enable with: include = cat /usr/share/mr/vcsh
59 Thanks, Richard Hartmann
60 * Block tty control codes in untrusted mr config files.
61 * Correct printing of line numbers when includes are used. Closes: #650952
62 * The previous fix for chaining to absolute paths broke chaining to relative

66 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
67 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
68 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
69 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"

83 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
85 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
86 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
87 mark repositories that should be removed.
88 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
89 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
90 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
91 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
92 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
93 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
94 repositories. Closes: #643591
95 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.

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

153 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
154 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
155 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
156 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

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

186 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails

210 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
212 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
213 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
214 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
215 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
216 and create it if necessary.
217 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
218 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

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

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

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

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

283 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

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

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

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

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

399 mr (0.19) unstable; urgency=low
401 * Support versions of man that don't use -l.
402 * Updating git repos no longer uses git-pull -t by default. Git makes it
403 to much of a PITA to do this, since -t makes git-pull require the
404 repository and refspec be specified at the command line (which is a bug in
405 git (#456035). mr used to hardcode those to "origin" and "master", but
406 that's not always the right choice. So give up on forcing git to be sane

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

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

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

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