<h3>Changes From 1.13.1 to 1.13.2<a class="headerlink" href="#changes-from-1-13-1-to-1-13-2" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>A regression was found in the 1.13.1 release. When bzr 1.13.1 and earlier push
a stacked branch they do not take care to push all the parent inventories for
the transferred revisions. This means that a smart server serving that branch
often cannot calculate inventory deltas for the branch (because smart server
does not/cannot open fallback repositories). Prior to 1.13 the server did not
have a verb to stream revisions out of a repository, so that’s why this bug has
appeared now.</p>

<h3>Improvements<a class="headerlink" href="#improvements" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>All bzr <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Hooks</span></tt> classes are now registered in
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.hooks.known_hooks</span></tt>. This removes the separate list from
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests</span></tt> and ensures that all hooks registered there are
correctly isolated by the test suite (previously
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MutableTreeHooks</span></tt> were not being isolated correctly). Further,
documentation for hooks is now dynamically generated from the
present HookPoints. <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">hooks</span></tt> will now also report on all the
hooks present in the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.hooks.known_hooks</span></tt> registry.
(Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">add</span></tt> no longer prints <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">add</span> <span class="pre">completed</span></tt> on success. Failure
still prints an error message. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">branch</span></tt> now has a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--no-tree</span></tt> option which turns off the
generation of a working tree in the new branch.
(Daniel Watkins, John Klinger, #273993)</li>
<li>Bazaar will now point out <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr+ssh://</span></tt> to the user when they
use <a class="reference external" href="ssh://">ssh://</a>. (Jelmer Vernooij, #330535)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">-v</span> <span class="pre">info</span></tt> now omits the number of committers branch statistic,
making it many times faster for large projects. To include that
statistic in the output, use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">-vv</span> <span class="pre">info</span></tt>.
(Ian Clatworthy)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">push</span></tt> to a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span></tt> url (<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr://</span></tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr+ssh://</span></tt> etc) will
stream if the server is version 1.13 or greater, reducing roundtrips
significantly. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)</li>
<li>Lightweight Checkouts and Stacked Branches should both be much
faster over remote connections. Building the working tree now
batches up requests into approx 5MB requests, rather than a separate
request for each file. (John Arbash Meinel)</li>
<li>Support for GSSAPI authentication when using HTTP or HTTPS.
(Jelmer Vernooij)</li>
<li>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">shelve</span></tt> prompt now includes a ‘?’ help option to explain the
short options better. (Daniel Watkins, #327429)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">lp-open</span></tt> now falls back to the push location if it cannot find a
public location. (Jonathan Lange, #332372)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">lp-open</span></tt> will try to find the Launchpad URL for the location
passed on the command line. This makes <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">lp-open</span> <span class="pre">lp:foo</span></tt> work as
expected. (Jonathan Lange, #332705)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">send</span></tt> now supports MH-E via <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">emacsclient</span></tt>. (Eric Gillespie)</li>

<li>Fixed “sprout() got an unexpected keyword argument ‘source_branch’”
error branching from old repositories.
(Martin Pool, #321695)</li>

(Kent Gibson, #221461)</li>
<li>Many Branch hooks would not fire with <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr://</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr+ssh://</span></tt>
branches, and this was not noticed due to a bug in the test logic
for branches. This is now fixed and a test added to prevent it
reoccuring. (Robert Collins, Andrew Bennetts)</li>
<li>Restore the progress bar on Windows. We were disabling it when TERM
wasn’t set, but Windows doesn’t set TERM. (Alexander Belchenko,
#334808)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">setup.py</span> <span class="pre">build_ext</span></tt> now gives a proper error when an extension
fails to build. (John Arbash Meinel)</li>
<li>Symlinks to non ascii file names are now supported.
(Robert Collins, Vincent Ladeuil, #339055, #272444)</li>
<li>Under rare circumstances (aka nobody reported a bug about it), the FTP
transport could revert to ascii mode. It now stays in binary mode except

<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">selftest</span></tt> now fails if the bazaar sources contain trailing
whitespace, non-unix style line endings and files not ending in a

<li>Branching from a non-stacked branch on a smart protocol is now
free of virtual file system methods.

<li>Branch and Repository creation on a bzr+ssh://server are now done
via RPC calls rather than VFS calls, reducing round trips for
pushing new branches substantially. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Branch.clone</span></tt> now takes the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">repository_policy</span></tt> formerly used

<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.run_suite</span></tt> accepts a runner_class parameter

memory consumption. (John Arbash Meinel)</li>
<li>New branch method <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">create_clone_on_transport</span></tt> that returns a

<li>New hook Commands[‘extend_command’] to allow plugins to access a

<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">TestResult</span></tt> by calling <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">addSkip</span></tt>. For older TestResult objects,
where <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">addSkip</span></tt> is not available, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">addError</span></tt> is still called.
This permits test filtering in subunit to strip out skipped tests
resulting in a faster fix-shrink-list-run cycle. This is compatible
with the testtools protocol for skips. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_index</span></tt> of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">KnitVersionedFiles</span></tt> now supports the ability
to scan an underlying index that is going to be incorporated into
the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">KnitVersionedFiles</span></tt> object, to determine if it has missing
delta references. The method is <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">scan_unvalidated_index</span></tt>.
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)</li>
<li>There is a RemoteSink object which handles pushing to smart servers.
(Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">TransportTraceDecorator</span></tt> now logs <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">put_bytes_non_atomic</span></tt> and
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">rmdir</span></tt> calls. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">VersionedFiles</span></tt> record adapters have had their signature change
from <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">(record,</span> <span class="pre">record.get_bytes_as(record.storage_kind))</span></tt> to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">(record)</span></tt> reducing excess duplication and allowing adapters
to access private data in record to obtain content more
efficiently. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>We no longer probe to see if we should create a working tree during
clone if we cannot get a local_abspath for the new bzrdir.
