<h3>Changes<a class="headerlink" href="#changes" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Dotted revision numbers have been revised. Instead of growing longer with
nested branches the branch number just increases. (eg instead of 1.1.1.1.1
we now report 1.2.1.) This helps scale long lived branches which have many
feature branches merged between them. (John Arbash Meinel)</li>
<li>The syntax <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">diff</span> <span class="pre">branch1</span> <span class="pre">branch2</span></tt> is no longer supported.
Use <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">diff</span> <span class="pre">branch1</span> <span class="pre">--new</span> <span class="pre">branch2</span></tt> instead. This change has
been made to remove the ambiguity where <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">branch2</span></tt> is in fact a
specific file to diff within <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">branch1</span></tt>.</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="features">
<h3>Features<a class="headerlink" href="#features" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>New option to use custom template-based formats in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">version-info</span></tt>.
(Lukáš Lalinský)</li>
<li>diff ‘–using’ allows an external diff tool to be used for files.
(Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li>New “lca” merge-type for fast everyday merging that also supports
criss-cross merges. (Aaron Bentley)</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><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">annotate</span></tt> now doesn’t require a working tree. (Lukáš Lalinský,
#90049)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">branch</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">checkout</span></tt> can now use files from a working tree to
to speed up the process. For checkout, this requires the new
–files-from flag. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">diff</span></tt> now sorts files in alphabetical order. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">diff</span></tt> now works on branches without working trees. Tree-less
branches can also be compared to each other and to working trees using
the new diff options <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--old</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--new</span></tt>. Diffing between branches,
with or without trees, now supports specific file filtering as well.
(Ian Clatworthy, #6700)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">pack</span></tt> now orders revision texts in topological order, with newest
at the start of the file, promoting linear reads for <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">log</span></tt> and the
like. This partially fixes #154129. (Robert Collins)</li>
<li>Merge directives now fetch prerequisites from the target branch if
needed. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li>pycurl now handles digest authentication.
(Vincent Ladeuil)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">reconfigure</span></tt> can now convert from repositories. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-l</span></tt> is now a short form for <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--limit</span></tt> in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">log</span></tt>. (Matt Nordhoff)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">merge</span></tt> now warns when merge directives cause cherrypicks.
(Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">split</span></tt> now supported, to enable splitting large trees into smaller
pieces. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="section" id="bugfixes">
<h3>Bugfixes<a class="headerlink" href="#bugfixes" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Avoid AttributeError when unlocking a pack repository when an error occurs.
(Martin Pool, #180208)</li>
<li>Better handle short reads when processing multiple range requests.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #179368)</li>
<li>build_tree acceleration uses the correct path when a file has been moved.
(Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">commit</span></tt> now succeeds when a checkout and its master branch share a
repository. (Aaron Bentley, #177592)</li>
<li>Fixed error reporting of unsupported timezone format in
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">log</span> <span class="pre">--timezone</span></tt>. (Lukáš Lalinský, #178722)</li>
<li>Fixed Unicode encoding error in <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">ignored</span></tt> when the output is
redirected to a pipe. (Lukáš Lalinský)</li>
<li>Fix traceback when sending large response bodies over the smart protocol
on Windows. (Andrew Bennetts, #115781)</li>
<li>Fix <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">urlutils.relative_url</span></tt> for the case of two <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">file:///</span></tt> URLs
pointed to different logical drives on Windows.
(Alexander Belchenko, #90847)</li>
<li>HTTP test servers are now compatible with the HTTP protocol version 1.1.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #175524)</li>
<li>_KnitParentsProvider.get_parent_map now handles requests for ghosts
correctly, instead of erroring or attributing incorrect parents to ghosts.
(Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">merge</span> <span class="pre">--weave</span> <span class="pre">--uncommitted</span></tt> now works. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li>pycurl authentication handling was broken and incomplete. Fix handling of
user:pass embedded in the URLs.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #177643)</li>
<li>Files inside non-directories are now handled like other conflict types.
(Aaron Bentley, #177390)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">reconfigure</span></tt> is able to convert trees into lightweight checkouts.
(Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li>Reduce lockdir timeout to 0 when running <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">bzr</span> <span class="pre">serve</span></tt>. (Andrew Bennetts,
#148087)</li>
<li>Test that the old <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">version_info_format</span></tt> functions still work, even
though they are deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel, ShenMaq, #177872)</li>
<li>Transform failures no longer cause ImmortalLimbo errors (Aaron Bentley,
#137681)</li>
<li><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">uncommit</span></tt> works even when the commit messages of revisions to be
removed use characters not supported in the terminal encoding.
(Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li>When dumb HTTP servers return whole files instead of the requested ranges,
read the remaining bytes by chunks to avoid overflowing network buffers.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #175886)</li>

<h3>Documentation<a class="headerlink" href="#documentation" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Minor tweaks made to the bug tracker integration documentation.
(Ian Clatworthy)</li>
<li>Reference material has now be moved out of the User Guide and added
to the User Reference. The User Reference has gained 4 sections as
a result: Authenication Settings, Configuration Settings, Conflicts
and Hooks. All help topics are now dumped into text format in the
doc/en/user-reference directory for those who like browsing that
information in their editor. (Ian Clatworthy)</li>

<li>Help topics can now be loaded from files.
(Ian Clatworthy, Alexander Belchenko)</li>
<li>get_parent_map now always provides tuples as its output. (Aaron Bentley)</li>
<li>Parent Providers should now implement <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">get_parent_map</span></tt> returning a
dictionary instead of <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">get_parents</span></tt> returning a list.
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">Graph.get_parents</span></tt> is now deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel,
Robert Collins)</li>

filter tests based on a regular expression search on the tests id.
