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

79 * Support _append to add on to the existing value of a parameter.
81 * Optimizations. Commands like "mr list" run up to 5 times faster.
82 * Fix shell escaping of parameters passed to mr commands. Closes: #644672
83 * Added --force option that disables repository skipping.
84 * Repositories using skip = lazy will not be checked out by "mr update"
85 or "mr checkout" unless --force is used.

98 mr (1.05) unstable; urgency=low
100 * README now gives a quick into to using mr.
101 * Brought back the "deleted" parameter, which provides an easy way to
102 mark repositories that should be removed.
103 * Allow untrusted mrconfig files to set parameters to true/false.
104 So skip=true or deleted=true can be used in an untrusted mrconfig file.
105 * Also allow order=N in an untrusted mrconfig file.
106 * Support bzr checkouts, which are updated with "bzr update",
107 and to which bzr automatically pushes commits. Closes: #643589
108 * Use bzr branch, not deprecated bzr clone when registering bzr
109 repositories. Closes: #643591
110 * Allow bzr branch|clone|get|checkout in untrusted mrconfig files.
111 * Avoid using sed -r in git-fake-bare, for OSX portability.

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

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

183 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low
185 * Fix the hours_since function built into mr's shell library to
186 not exit, but return a true/false exit status. This allows it to be
187 used outside of skip tests.

199 mr (0.46) unstable; urgency=low
201 * Avoid using abs_path to determine canonical repo path, as that fails
202 when the repo has not yet been checked out.

206 mr (0.45) unstable; urgency=low
208 * Fix pod error. Closes: #558012

225 mr (0.43) unstable; urgency=low
227 * Set User-Agent to "mr" when downloading the mrconfig file
228 with mr bootstrap. Closes: #541778
229 * Man page typo. Closes: #545412
230 * mr bootstrap: Allow a directory to checkout into to be specified,
231 and create it if necessary.
232 * mr bootstrap: If the mrconfig file contains a repository named ".",
233 check it out into the top level of the directory bootstrapped.
235 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:22:32 -0400
237 mr (0.42) unstable; urgency=low
239 * Add support for ~/.mrtrust, which can be used to list trusted mrconfig
240 files. If you create this file, all files not listed in it will be treated
241 as untrusted, and carefully limited in what they can do. This improves
242 security when using mrconfig files provided by others.
244 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Fri, 07 Aug 2009 16:38:31 -0400
246 mr (0.41) unstable; urgency=low
248 * Add -p switch, that makes mr search the current directory and its
249 parents for a .mrconfig file to use.
250 * Add `mr bootstrap`, which downloads an url to a .mrconfig file
251 in the current directory and then checks out all repositories configured
252 in it. This is intended for projects that want to publish a mrconfig file
253 to automate use of their several repositories.

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

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

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

317 * Include the right (v2) version of GPL in the source.

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

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

417 * Updating git repos no longer uses git-pull -t by default. Git makes it
418 to much of a PITA to do this, since -t makes git-pull require the
419 repository and refspec be specified at the command line (which is a bug in
420 git (#456035). mr used to hardcode those to "origin" and "master", but
421 that's not always the right choice. So give up on forcing git to be sane

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

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

551 mr (0.6) unstable; urgency=low
553 * Add to the example mrconfig a "tags" command that lists tags.
554 (Currently only for svn and git.)
555 * hours_since was broken by design, and fixing it involved changing
556 its calling convention. If you used the old version, the new version
558 * Add ability to reorder repos, if you want mr to act on a given repo first

563 mr (0.5) unstable; urgency=low
566 * Removed special case repository deletion handling code. The same
567 thing can be accomplished in a mrconfig by skipping a repo unless
568 it exists, and printing a reminder on update. See the mrconfig file
570 * Fix output of "mr config DEFAULT lib".
571 * Change mr update to use git pull -t origin master, to make sure new tags
572 are pulled. And since those might not always be the right parameters
573 for git pull, any parameters passed to mr update will replace them.
576 * Add support for mercurial.
579 * Incorporate code based on Anthony Towns's mrs, to allow running
580 multiple jobs in parallel. The -j flag controls this.
581 This can produce enormous speedups. For me, mr update takes
582 12 minutes, while mr -j 10 update takes 1 minute!

586 mr (0.4) unstable; urgency=low
588 * Fix mr register of a subdir to also work with -c.
589 * Signal handling for commands run by mr, including handling of SIGINT
591 * Ensure parent dirs exist prior to checkout. (madduck)
592 * Output list of failed repos to stderr when -s is used.
593 * Fix a bug caused by a stupid typo.
594 * Add the -n switch, for disabling recursion.
595 * Allow for more complex deleted tests, such as marking a repo deleted on
596 some hosts, while not on others.
597 * Support registering CVS repositories. Closes: #447171
598 * MR_CONFIG now points to the config file that contains the repo mr is
600 * Make mr register smarter about what mrconfig file to write to.
601 (It probably does what you'd expect it to do now; if it doesn't, -c

606 mr (0.3) unstable; urgency=low
608 * Add a check to make sure the expected directory exists after checkout.
609 * mr register will now write to whatever config file is specified with -c
610 * Typo fixes from madduck.

616 * Fix line number display for config file parse errors.
617 * Fix a bug in inheritance of default settings in chained .mrconfig files.
