bzr 0.14
########

:Released:  2007-01-23

Improvements
************

* ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options. (Aaron Bentley)

Bug Fixes
*********

* Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
  available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
  (John Arbash Meinel, #80330)

* Fix the code that discovers whether bzr is being run from it's
  working tree to handle the case when it isn't but the directory
  it is in is below a repository. (James Westby, #77306)


bzr 0.14rc1
###########

:Released:  2007-01-16

Improvements
************

* New connection: ``bzr+http://`` which supports tunnelling the smart
  protocol over an HTTP connection. If writing is enabled on the bzr
  server, then you can write over the HTTP connection.
  (Andrew Bennetts, John Arbash Meinel)

* Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
  (Marius Kruger)

* PyCurlTransport now use a single curl object. By specifying explicitly
  the 'Range' header, we avoid the need to use two different curl objects
  (and two connections to the same server). (Vincent Ladeuil)

* ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
  succeed.  (Aaron Bentley)

* ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
  (Aaron Bentley)

* Fix ``iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` to use a set instead
  of a list while checking if a revision id was requested. Takes 10s
  off of the ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` time, which is 10s
  of the ``bzr branch`` time. Also improve ``fileids_...`` time by
  filtering lines with a regex rather than multiple ``str.find()``
  calls. (saves another 300ms) (John Arbash Meinel)

* Policy can be set for each configuration key. This allows keys to be
  inherited properly across configuration entries. For example, this
  should enable you to do::

    [/home/user/project]
    push_location = sftp://host/srv/project/
    push_location:policy = appendpath

  And then a branch like ``/home/user/project/mybranch`` should get an
  automatic push location of ``sftp://host/srv/project/mybranch``.
  (James Henstridge)

* Added ``bzr status --short`` to make status report svn style flags
  for each file.  For example::

    $ bzr status --short
    A  foo
    A  bar
    D  baz
    ?  wooley

* 'bzr selftest --clean-output' allows easily clean temporary tests
  directories without running tests. (Alexander Belchenko)

* ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands. (Aaron Bentley)

* ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
  local is fully merged into remote. (Jan Hudec)

* ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats. (Aaron Bentley)

Internals
*********

* A few tweaks directly to ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` to
  help speed up processing, as well allowing to extract unannotated
  lines. Between the two ``fileids_affected_by_revision_ids`` is
  improved by approx 10%. (John Arbash Meinel)

* Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
  resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
  preserve more resolution than we need. (Henri Weichers, Martin Pool)

* Test suite ends cleanly on Windows.  (Vincent Ladeuil)

* When ``encoding_type`` attribute of class Command is equal to 'exact',
  force sys.stdout to be a binary stream on Windows, and therefore
  keep exact line-endings (without LF -> CRLF conversion).
  (Alexander Belchenko)

* Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared.  (Martin
  Pool)

* Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
  that Python has corresponding codec. (Alexander Belchenko)

* Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry (Aaron Bentley)

Bug Fixes
*********

* ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
  direction. (John Arbash Meinel)

* ``bzr annotate`` now defaults to showing dotted revnos for merged
  revisions. It cuts them off at a depth of 12 characters, but you can
  supply ``--long`` to see the full number. You can also use
  ``--show-ids`` to display the original revision ids, rather than
  revision numbers and committer names. (John Arbash Meinel, #75637)

* bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. ``\HOST\path``.
  (Alexander Belchenko, #57869)

* Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
  line-endings (Alexander Belchenko, #55276)

* Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
  matcher.
  (Kent Gibson, Jan Hudec #57637)

* pycurl and urllib can detect short reads at different places. Update
  the test suite to test more cases. Also detect HTTP error code 416
  which was raised for that specific bug. Also enhance the urllib
  robustness by detecting invalid ranges (and pycurl's one by detecting
  short reads during the initial GET). (Vincent Ladeuil, #73948)

* The urllib connection sharing interacts badly with urllib2
  proxy setting (the connections didn't go thru the proxy
  anymore). Defining a proper ProxyHandler solves the
  problem.  (Vincent Ladeuil, #74759)

* Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
  (Aaron Bentley, #76229)

* ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
  lots of errors. (John Arbash Meinel, #76299)

* Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
  (Wouter van Heyst, #31663)

* Allow plugins import from zip archives.
  (Alexander Belchenko, #68124)
