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.

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

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

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

69 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 20 Jan 2011 16:50:49 -0400
71 mr (1.00) unstable; urgency=low
73 * Trust flag day. All mrconfig files except the main ~/.mrconfig are
74 now untrusted by default, until listed in ~/.mrtrust.
75 * The -p flag is now enabled by default. mr first reads ~/.mrconfig,
76 and then looks for an additional .mrconfig file in the current
77 directory or one of its parent directories. Closes: #557963

90 mr (0.50) unstable; urgency=low
92 * Now supports the Fossil VCS. (Thanks, Jimmy Tang)
93 * Added fixups hook, which can be used to run a command after
94 a repository is checked out or updated. Closes: #590868
95 * Added support for arbitrary pre and post hooks for all defined mr
96 commands. For example, pre_commit is run before all commits; post_update
97 is run after all updates. Closes: #481341

109 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low

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

154 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
155 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
156 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
157 and create it if necessary.
158 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
159 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
161 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
163 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
165 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
166 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
167 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
168 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.

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

196 mr (0.38) unstable; urgency=low
198 * Remove gitless lib. It turned out to be better to simply
199 use git clone --shared when checking out. Sorry for the churn..
201 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 22 Jan 2009 15:39:33 -0500
203 mr (0.37) unstable; urgency=low
205 * Add "gitless" file to lib.
206 This adds a special type of git repository, where the .git directory
207 is stored on a file server, to avoid wasting space with it on the client.
208 * Revert buggy change to directory printing code.
210 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Wed, 21 Jan 2009 01:40:59 -0500
212 mr (0.36) unstable; urgency=low

219 mr (0.35) unstable; urgency=low
221 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
222 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
223 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
224 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

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

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

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

287 are no changes. Closes: #476650

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

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

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

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

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

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

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