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.

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

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

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

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

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

108 mr (0.48) unstable; urgency=low

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

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

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

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

220 * Warn if an include command fails nonzero. Closes: #495306
221 * Remove stray character in pod that uglified man page. Closes: #495731
222 * Create ~/.mrlog not world readable.
223 * Pass additional options to darcs push when pushing. Closes: #495734

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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