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

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

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

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

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

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

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

149 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
150 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
151 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
152 and create it if necessary.
153 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
154 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

371 * Allow -n to be passed a number to specify how deep to go into
372 subdirectories to find repositories to act on. Closes: #450621
375 * Make -j with no argument run unlimited jobs in parallel, like make -j
379 * Add a warning about runing too many jobs at a time.

410 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
411 * Allow option bundling, mostly so "-j2" will work.
412 * Better error message if more than one repo type test matches a single

417 mr (0.10) unstable; urgency=low
419 * Add a lib file for using unison with mr.
420 * Make registration work when no config file yet exists. Closes: #448422

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

484 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
487 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
488 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
489 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
491 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
492 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
493 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
494 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
497 * Add support for mercurial.
500 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
501 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
502 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
503 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!
