<h3>Improvements<a class="headerlink" href="#improvements" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul>
<li><p class="first">The –lsprof-file option now dumps a text rendering of the profiling
information if the filename ends in ”.txt”. It will also convert the
profiling information to a format suitable for KCacheGrind if the
output filename ends in ”.callgrind”. Fixes to the lsprofcalltree
conversion process by Jean Paul Calderone and Itamar were also merged.
See <a class="reference external" href="http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree">http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree</a>. (Ian Clatworthy)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">info</span></tt> now defaults to non-verbose mode, displaying only paths and
abbreviated format info. <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">info</span> <span class="pre">-v</span></tt> displays all the information
formerly displayed by <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">info</span></tt>. (Aaron Bentley, Adeodato Simó)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">missing</span></tt> now has better option names <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--this</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--other</span></tt>.
(Elliot Murphy)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">The internal <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">weave-list</span></tt> command has become <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">versionedfile-list</span></tt>,
and now lists knits as well as weaves. (Aaron Bentley)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Automatic merge base selection uses a faster algorithm that chooses
better bases in criss-cross merge situations (Aaron Bentley)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Progress reporting in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">commit</span></tt> has been improved. The various logical
stages are now reported on as follows, namely:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Collecting changes [Entry x/y] - Stage n/m</li>
<li>Saving data locally - Stage n/m</li>
<li>Uploading data to master branch - Stage n/m</li>
<li>Updating the working tree - Stage n/m</li>
<li>Running post commit hooks - Stage n/m</li>
</ul>
<p>If there is no master branch, the 3rd stage is omitted and the total
number of stages is adjusted accordingly.</p>
<p>Each hook that is run after commit is listed with a name (as hooks
can be slow it is useful feedback).
(Ian Clatworthy, Robert Collins)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Various operations that are now faster due to avoiding unnecessary
topological sorts. (Aaron Bentley)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Make merge directives robust against broken bundles. (Aaron Bentley)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">The lsprof filename note is emitted via trace.note(), not standard
output. (Aaron Bentley)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib</span></tt> now exports explicit API compatibility information to assist
library users and plugins. See the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.api</span></tt> module for details.
(Robert Collins)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Remove unnecessary lock probes when acquiring a lockdir.
(Martin Pool)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first"><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">--version</span></tt> now shows the location of the bzr log file, which
is especially useful on Windows. (Martin Pool)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">-D now supports hooks to get debug tracing of hooks (though its currently
minimal in nature). (Robert Collins)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Long log format reports deltas on merge revisions.
(John Arbash Meinel, Kent Gibson)</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">Make initial push over FTP more resilient. (John Arbash Meinel)</p>

<h3>Library API Breaks<a class="headerlink" href="#library-api-breaks" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Testing cleanups -
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.repository.RepositoryTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has been moved
to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.repository_implementations</span></tt>;
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.repository.InterRepositoryTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has been moved

<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.transport.TransportTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has moved to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.test_transport_implementations</span></tt>.
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.branch.BranchTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has moved to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.branch_implementations</span></tt>.
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.bzrdir.BzrDirTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has moved to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.bzrdir_implementations</span></tt>.
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.versionedfile.InterVersionedFileTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has moved
to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.interversionedfile_implementations</span></tt>.
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.store.revision.RevisionStoreTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has moved to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.revisionstore_implementations</span></tt>.
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.workingtree.WorkingTreeTestProviderAdapter</span></tt> has moved to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.workingtree_implementations</span></tt>.
These changes are an API break in the testing infrastructure only.
(Robert Collins)</li>
<li>Relocate TestCaseWithRepository to be more central. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree</span></tt> will no longer perform glob expansion on
win32. Callers of the function should do this and use the new
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MutableTree.smart_add</span></tt> method instead. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.add.glob_expand_for_win32</span></tt> is now
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.win32utils.glob_expand</span></tt>. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.add.FastPath</span></tt> is now private and moved to
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.mutabletree._FastPath</span></tt>. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">LockDir.wait</span></tt> removed. (Martin Pool)</li>
<li>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">SmartServer</span></tt> hooks API has changed for the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">server_started</span></tt> and
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">server_stopped</span></tt> hooks. The first parameter is now an iterable of
backing URLs rather than a single URL. This is to reflect that many
URLs may map to the external URL of the server. E.g. the server interally
may have a chrooted URL but also the local <a class="reference external" href="file://">file://</a> URL will be at the
same location. (Robert Collins)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="internals">
<h3>Internals<a class="headerlink" href="#internals" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>New SMTPConnection class to unify email handling. (Adeodato Simó)</li>
<li>Fix documentation of BzrError. (Adeodato Simó)</li>
<li>Make BzrBadParameter an internal error. (Adeodato Simó)</li>
<li>Remove use of ‘assert False’ to raise an exception unconditionally.
(Martin Pool)</li>
<li>Give a cleaner error when failing to decode knit index entry.
(Martin Pool)</li>
<li>TreeConfig would mistakenly search the top level when asked for options
from a section. It now respects the section argument and only
searches the specified section. (James Westby)</li>
<li>Improve <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">make</span> <span class="pre">api-docs</span></tt> output. (John Arbash Meinel)</li>
<li>Use os.lstat rather than os.stat for osutils.make_readonly and
osutils.make_writeable. This makes the difftools plugin more
robust when dangling symlinks are found. (Elliot Murphy)</li>
<li>New <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-Dlock</span></tt> option to log (to ~/.bzr.log) information on when
lockdirs are taken or released. (Martin Pool)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib</span></tt> Hooks are now nameable using <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Hooks.name_hook</span></tt>. This
allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current hook can
be displayed. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Transport.get</span></tt> has had its interface made more clear for ease of use.
Retrieval of a directory must now fail with either ‘PathError’ at open
time, or raise ‘ReadError’ on a read. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>New method <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">_maybe_expand_globs</span></tt> on the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Command</span></tt> class for
dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32 platform. This
was moved from <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list</span></tt>. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.add.smart_add</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree</span></tt> are now
deprecated in favour of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">MutableTree.smart_add</span></tt>. (Robert Collins,
Martin Pool)</li>
<li>New method <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">external_url</span></tt> on Transport for obtaining the URL to
hand to external processes. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>Teach windows installers to build pyrex/C extensions.
(Alexander Belchenko)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="testing">
<h3>Testing<a class="headerlink" href="#testing" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Removed the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--keep-output</span></tt> option from selftest and clean up test
directories as they’re used. This reduces the IO load from
running the test suite and cuts the time by about half.
(Andrew Bennetts, Martin Pool)</li>
<li>Add scenarios as a public attribute on the TestAdapter classes to allow
modification of the generated scenarios before adaption and easier
testing. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>New testing support class <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">TestScenarioApplier</span></tt> which multiplies
out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios. (RobertCollins)</li>
<li>Setting <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">repository_to_test_repository</span></tt> on a repository_implementations
test will cause it to be called during repository creation, allowing the
testing of repository classes which are not based around the Format
concept. For example a repository adapter can be tested in this manner,
by altering the repository scenarios to include a scenario that sets this
attribute during the test parameterisation in
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations</span></tt>. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>Clean up many of the APIs for blackbox testing of Bazaar. The standard
interface is now self.run_bzr. The command to run can be passed as
either a list of parameters, a string containing the command line, or
(deprecated) varargs parameters. (Martin Pool)</li>
<li>The base TestCase now isolates tests from -D parameters by clearing
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">debug.debug_flags</span></tt> and restores it afterwards. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>Add a relpath parameter to get_transport methods in test framework to
avoid useless cloning.
