<h3>Notes<a class="headerlink" href="#notes" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>‘bzr branch’ over HTTP initially gives a very high estimate
of completion time but it should fall as the first few
revisions are pulled in. branch is still slow on
high-latency connections.</li>
</ul>

<div class="section" id="id1">
<h3>Bug Fixes<a class="headerlink" href="#id1" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>bzr-man.py has been updated to work again. Contributed by
Rob Weir.</li>
<li>Locking is now done with fcntl.lockf which works with NFS
file systems. Contributed by Harald Meland.</li>
<li>When a merge encounters a file that has been deleted on
one side and modified on the other, the old contents are
written out to foo.BASE and foo.SIDE, where SIDE is this
or OTHER. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.</li>
<li>Export was choosing incorrect file paths for the content of
the tarball, this has been fixed by Aaron Bentley.</li>
<li>Commit will no longer commit without a log message, an
error is returned instead. Contributed by Jelmer Vernooij.</li>
<li>If you commit a specific file in a sub directory, any of its
parent directories that are added but not listed will be
automatically included. Suggested by Michael Ellerman.</li>
<li>bzr commit and upgrade did not correctly record new revisions
for files with only a change to their executable status.
bzr will correct this when it encounters it. Fixed by
Robert Collins</li>
<li>HTTP tests now force off the use of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">http_proxy</span></tt> for the duration.
Contributed by Gustavo Niemeyer.</li>
<li>Fix problems in merging weave-based branches that have
different partial views of history.</li>
<li>Symlink support: working with symlinks when not in the root of a
bzr tree was broken, patch from Scott James Remnant.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="improvements">
<h3>Improvements<a class="headerlink" href="#improvements" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>‘branch’ now accepts a –basis parameter which will take advantage
of local history when making a new branch. This allows faster
branching of remote branches. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.</li>
<li>New tree format based on weave files, called version 5.
Existing branches can be upgraded to this format using
‘bzr upgrade’.</li>
<li>Symlinks are now versionable. Initial patch by
Erik Toubro Nielsen, updated to head by Robert Collins.</li>
<li>Executable bits are tracked on files. Patch from Gustavo
Niemeyer.</li>
<li>‘bzr status’ now shows unknown files inside a selected directory.
Patch from Heikki Paajanen.</li>
<li>Merge conflicts are recorded in .bzr. Two new commands ‘conflicts’
and ‘resolve’ have needed added, which list and remove those
merge conflicts respectively. A conflicted tree cannot be committed
in. Contributed by Aaron Bentley.</li>
<li>‘rm’ is now an alias for ‘remove’.</li>
<li>Stores now split out their content in a single byte prefixed hash,
dropping the density of files per directory by 256. Contributed by
Gustavo Niemeyer.</li>
<li>‘bzr diff -r branch:URL’ will now perform a diff between two branches.
Contributed by Robert Collins.</li>
<li>‘bzr log’ with the default formatter will show merged revisions,
indented to the right. Initial implementation contributed by Gustavo
Niemeyer, made incremental by Robert Collins.</li>

<h3>Internals<a class="headerlink" href="#internals" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Test case failures have the exception printed after the log
for your viewing pleasure.</li>
<li>InventoryEntry is now an abstract base class, use one of the
concrete InventoryDirectory etc classes instead.</li>
<li>Branch raises an UnsupportedFormatError when it detects a
bzr branch it cannot understand. This allows for precise
handling of such circumstances.</li>
<li>Remove RevisionReference class; <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Revision.parent_ids</span></tt> is now simply a
list of their ids and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">parent_sha1s</span></tt> is a list of their corresponding
sha1s (for old branches only at the moment.)</li>
<li>New method-object style interface for Commit() and Fetch().</li>
<li>Renamed <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Branch.last_patch()</span></tt> to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Branch.last_revision()</span></tt>, since
we call them revisions not patches.</li>
<li>Move <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">copy_branch</span></tt> to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.clone.copy_branch</span></tt>. The destination
directory is created if it doesn’t exist.</li>
<li>Inventories now identify the files which were present by
giving the revision <em>of that file</em>.</li>
<li>Inventory and Revision XML contains a version identifier.
This must be consistent with the overall branch version
but allows for more flexibility in future upgrades.</li>

there is a ‘before’ namespace, which limits the successive namespace.
For example ‘$ bzr log -r date:yesterday..before:date:today’ will

<h3>Improvements<a class="headerlink" href="#id5" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Adding a file whose parent directory is not versioned will
implicitly add the parent, and so on up to the root. This means
you should never need to explictly add a directory, they’ll just
get added when you add a file in the directory. Contributed by
Michael Ellerman.</li>
<li>Ignore <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.DS_Store</span></tt> (contains Mac metadata) by default.
(Nir Soffer)</li>
<li>If you set <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">BZR_EDITOR</span></tt> in the environment, it is checked in
preference to EDITOR and the config file for the interactive commit
editing program. Related to this is a bugfix where a missing program
set in EDITOR would cause editing to fail, now the fallback program
for the operating system is still tried.</li>
<li>Files that are not directories/symlinks/regular files will no longer
cause bzr to fail, it will just ignore them by default. You cannot add
them to the tree though - they are not versionable.</li>

<h3>Testing<a class="headerlink" href="#id16" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Converted black-box test suites from Bourne shell into Python;
now run using <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">./testbzr</span></tt>. Various structural improvements to
the tests.</li>
<li>testbzr by default runs the version of bzr found in the same
directory as the tests, or the one given as the first parameter.</li>
<li>testbzr also runs the internal tests, so the only command
required to check is just <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">./testbzr</span></tt>.</li>
<li>testbzr requires python2.4, but can be used to test bzr running
under a different version.</li>
<li>Tests added for many other changes in this release.</li>
