%changelog
* Wed Mar 12 2008 kssingvo@suse.de
- upgrade to version 1.2:
  * many bugfixes and changes, see included NEWS file for details
  * major changes, new features and improvements:
    - Fetching via bzr+ssh will no longer fill ghosts by default.
    - Formatting of ``bzr plugins`` output is changed to be more
  human- friendly. Full path of plugins locations will be shown
  only with ``--verbose`` command-line option.
    - ``merge --preview`` produces a diff of the changes merge would
  make, but does not actually perform the merge.
    - New smart method ``Repository.get_parent_map`` for getting
  revision parent data.
    - New smart method, ``Repository.stream_revisions_chunked``, for
  fetching revision data that streams revision data via a chunked
  encoding.
    - The launchpad plugin now handles lp urls of the form
  ``lp://staging/``, ``lp://demo/``, ``lp://dev/`` to use the
  appropriate launchpad instance to do the resolution of the
  branch identities.
    - Creating a new branch no longer tries to read the entire
  revision-history unnecessarily over smart server operations.
    - Fetching between different repository formats with compatible
  models now takes advantage of the smart method to stream
  revisions.
    - The ``--coverage`` option is now global, rather specific to
  ``bzr selftest``.
    - The ``register-branch`` command will now use the public url of
  the branch containing the current directory, if one has been
  set and no explicit branch is provided.
    - Tweak the ``reannotate`` code path to optimize the 2-parent
  case. Speeds up ``bzr annotate`` with a pack repository by
  approx 3:2.
* Wed Jan 16 2008 kssingvo@suse.de
- upgrade to version 1.1:
  * The syntax ``bzr diff branch1 branch2`` is no longer
  supported. Use ``bzr diff branch1 --new branch2`` instead.
  This change has been made to remove the ambiguity where
  ``branch2`` is in fact a specific file to diff within
  ``branch1``.
  * New option to use custom template-based formats in  ``bzr
  version-info``.
  * diff '--using' allows an external diff tool to be used for
  files.
  * New "lca" merge-type for fast everyday merging that also
  supports criss-cross merges.
  * ``annotate`` now doesn't require a working tree.
  * ``branch`` and ``checkout`` can now use files from a working
  tree to to speed up the process.  For checkout, this requires
  the new --files-from flag.
  * ``bzr diff`` now sorts files in alphabetical order.
  * ``bzr diff`` 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 ``--old`` and
  ``--new``. Diffing between branches, with or without trees,
  now supports specific file filtering as well.
  * ``bzr pack`` now orders revision texts in topological order,
  with newest at the start of the file, promoting linear reads
  for ``bzr log`` and the like. This partially fixes #154129.
  * Merge directives now fetch prerequisites from the target
  branch if needed.
  * pycurl now handles digest authentication.
  * ``reconfigure`` can now convert from repositories.
  * ``-l`` is now a short form for ``--limit`` in ``log``.
  * ``merge`` now warns when merge directives cause cherrypicks.
  * ``split`` now supported, to enable splitting large trees into
  smaller pieces.
  * Better handle short reads when processing multiple range
  requests.
  * build_tree acceleration uses the correct path when a file has
  been moved.
  * ``commit`` now succeeds when a checkout and its master branch
  share a repository.
  * Fixed error reporting of unsupported timezone format in ``log
    --timezone``.
  * Fixed Unicode encoding error in ``ignored`` when the output is
  redirected to a pipe.
  * Fix traceback when sending large response bodies over the
  smart protocol on Windows
  * Fix ``urlutils.relative_url`` for the case of two ``file:///``
  URLs pointed to different logical drives on Windows.
  * HTTP test servers are now compatible with the http protocol
  version 1.1.
  * _KnitParentsProvider.get_parent_map now handles requests for
  ghosts correctly, instead of erroring or attributing incorrect
  parents to ghosts.
  * ``merge --weave --uncommitted`` now works.
  * pycurl authentication handling was broken and incomplete. Fix
  handling of user:pass embedded in the urls.
  * Files inside non-directories are now handled like other
  conflict types.
  * ``reconfigure`` is able to convert trees into lightweight
  checkouts.
  * Reduce lockdir timeout to 0 when running ``bzr serve``.
  * Test that the old ``version_info_format`` functions still
  work, even though they are deprecated.
  * Transform failures no longer cause ImmortalLimbo errors
  * ``uncommit`` works even when the commit messages of revisions
  to be removed use characters not supported in the terminal
  encoding.
  * When dumb http servers return whole files instead of the
  requested ranges, read the remaining bytes by chunks to avoid
  overflowing network buffers.
  * Minor tweaks made to the bug tracker integration
  documentation.
  * 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.
  * *Using Bazaar with Launchpad* tutorial added.
  * find_* methods available for BzrDirs, Branches and
  WorkingTrees.
  * Help topics can now be loaded from files.
  * get_parent_map now always provides tuples as its output.
  * Parent Providers should now implement ``get_parent_map``
  returning a dictionary instead of ``get_parents`` returning a
  list. ``get_parents`` is now considered deprecated.
  * Patience Diff now supports arbitrary python objects, as long
  as they support ``hash()``.
  * Modules can now customise their tests by defining a
  ``load_tests`` attribute. ``pydoc
  bzrlib.tests.TestUtil.TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule`` for the
  documentation on this attribute.
  * New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.condition_id_re`` which
  helps filter tests based on a regular expression search on the
  tests id.
  * New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.condition_isinstance``
  which helps filter tests based on class.
  * New helper function
  ``bzrlib.tests.exclude_suite_by_condition`` which generalises
  the ``exclude_suite_by_re`` function.
  * New helper function ``bzrlib.tests.filter_suite_by_condition``
  which generalises the ``filter_suite_by_re`` function.
  * New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.exclude_tests_by_re`` which
  gives a new TestSuite that does not contain tests from the
  input that matched a regular expression.
  * New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.randomize_suite`` which
  returns a randomized copy of the input suite.
  * New helper method ``bzrlib.tests.split_suite_by_re`` which
  splits a test suite into two according to a regular
  expression.
  * Parametrize all http tests for the transport implementations,
  the http protocol versions (1.0 and 1.1) and the
  authentication schemes.
  * The ``exclude_pattern`` and ``random_order`` parameters to the
  function ``bzrlib.tests.filter_suite_by_re`` have been
  deprecated.
  * The method ``bzrlib.tests.sort_suite_by_re`` has been
  deprecated. It is replaced by the new helper methods added in
  this release.
  * More improvements and fixes to the User Guide.
  * Add information on cherrypicking/rebasing to the User Guide.
  * Improve bug tracker integration documentation.
  * Minor edits to ``Bazaar in five minutes`` from David Roberts
  and to the rebasing section of the User Guide from Aaron
  Bentley.
  * If a traceback occurs, users are now asked to report the bug
  through Launchpad (https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/), rather
  than by mail to the mailing list.
  * Fix Makefile rules for doc generation.
  * Give more feedback during long http downloads by making readv
  deliver data as it arrives for urllib, and issue more requests
  for pycurl. High latency networks are better handled by
  urllib, the pycurl implementation give more feedback but also
  incur more latency.
  * Implement _make_parents_provider on RemoteRepository, allowing
  generating bundles against branches on a smart server.
  * Improved user guide.
  * The single-page quick reference guide is now available as a
  PDF.
  * readv urllib http implementation is now a real iterator above
  the underlying socket and deliver data as soon as it arrives.
  'get' still wraps its output in a StringIO.
  * Added a --coverage option to selftest.
  * Annotate merge (merge-type=weave) now supports cherrypicking.
  * ``bzr commit`` now doesn't print the revision number twice.
  * New configuration option
  ``bugtracker_<tracker_abbrevation>_url`` to define locations
  of bug trackers that are not directly supported by bzr or a
  plugin. The URL will be treated as a template and ``{id}``
  placeholders will be replaced by specific bug IDs.
  * Support logging single merge revisions with short and line log
  formatters.
  * User Guide enhanced with suggested readability improvements
  from Matt Revell and corrections from John Arbash Meinel.
  * Quick Start Guide renamed to Quick Start Card, moved down in
  the catalog, provided in pdf and png format and updated to
  refer to ``send`` instead of ``bundle``.
  * ``switch`` can now be used on heavyweight checkouts as well as
  lightweight ones. After switching a heavyweight checkout, the
  local branch is a mirror/cache of the new bound branch and
  uncommitted changes in the working tree are merged. As a
  safety check, if there are local commits in a checkout which
  have not been committed to the previously bound branch, then
  ``switch`` fails unless the ``--force`` option is given. This
  option is now also required if the branch a lightweight
  checkout is pointing to has been moved.
  * New -Dhttp debug option reports http connections, requests and
  responses.
  * New -Dmerge debug option, which emits merge plans for
  merge-type=weave.
  * Better error message when running ``bzr cat`` on a
  non-existant branch.
  * Catch OSError 17 (file exists) in final phase of tree
  transform and show filename to user.
  * Catch ShortReadvErrors while using pycurl. Also make readv
  more robust by allowing multiple GET requests to be issued if
  too many ranges are required.
  * Check for missing basis texts when fetching from packs to
  packs.
  * Fall back to showing e-mail in ``log --short/--line`` if the
  committer/author has only e-mail.
  * Deprecate not passing a ``location`` argument to commit
  reporters' ``started`` methods.
  * The default repository format is now ``pack-0.92``.  This
  default is used when creating new repositories with ``init``
  and ``init-repo``, and when branching over bzr+ssh or
  bzr+hpss.
  * Disable detection of plink.exe as possible ssh vendor. Plink
  vendor still available if user selects it explicitly with
  BZR_SSH environment variable.
  * The pack format is now accessible as "pack-0.92", or
  "pack-0.92-subtree" to enable the subtree functions (for
  example, for bzr-svn).  See
  http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/latest/developer/packrepo.html
  * New ``authentication.conf`` file holding the password or other
  credentials for remote servers. This can be used for ssh,
  sftp, smtp and other supported transports.
  * New rich-root and rich-root-pack formats, recording the same
  data about tree roots that's recorded for all other
  directories.
  * ``pack-0.92`` repositories can now be reconciled.
  * ``switch`` command added for changing the branch a lightweight
  checkout is associated with and updating the tree to reflect
  the latest content accordingly. This command was previously
  part of the BzrTools plug-in.
  * ``reconfigure`` command can now convert branches, trees, or
  checkouts to lightweight checkouts.
  * Commit updates the state of the working tree via a delta
  rather than supplying entirely new basis trees. For commit of
  a single specified file this reduces the wall clock time for
  commit by roughly a 30%%.
  * Commit with many automatically found deleted paths no longer
  performs linear scanning for the children of those paths
  during inventory iteration. This should fix commit performance
  blowing out when many such paths occur during commit.
  * Fetch with pack repositories will no longer read the entire
  history graph.
  * Revert takes out an appropriate lock when reverting to a basis
  tree, and does not read the basis inventory twice.
  * Diff does not require an inventory to be generated on dirstate
  trees.
  * New annotate merge (--merge-type=weave) implementation is fast
  on versionedfiles withough cached annotations, e.g. pack-0.92.
  * ``bzr merge`` now warns when it encounters a criss-cross
  merge.
  * ``bzr send`` now doesn't require the target e-mail address to
  be specified on the command line if an interactive e-mail
  client is used.
  * ``bzr tags`` now prints the revision number for each tag,
  instead of the revision id, unless --show-ids is passed. In
  addition, tags can be sorted chronologically instead of
  lexicographically with --sort=time.
  * Windows standalone version of bzr is able to load system-wide
  plugins from "plugins" subdirectory in installation directory.
  In addition standalone installer write to the registry
  (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Bazaar) useful info about paths and bzr
  version.
  * A progress bar has been added for knitpack -> knitpack
  fetching.
  * Branching from a branch via smart server now preserves the
  repository format.
  * ``commit`` is now able to invoke an external editor in a
  non-ascii directory.
  * Catch connection errors for ftp.
  * ``check`` no longer reports spurious unreferenced text
  versions.
  * Conflicts are now resolved recursively by ``revert``.
  * Detect invalid transport reuse attempts by catching invalid
  URLs.
  * Deleting a file without removing it shows a correct diff, not
  a traceback.
  * Do no use timeout in HttpServer anymore.
  * Don't catch the exceptions related to the http pipeline status
  before retrying an http request or some programming errors may
  be masked.
  * Fix ``bzr rm`` to not delete modified and ignored files.
  * Fix exception when revisionspec contains merge revisons but
  log formatter doesn't support merge revisions.
  * Fix exception when ScopeReplacer is assigned to before any
  members have been retrieved.
  * Fix multiple connections during checkout --lightweight.
  * Fix possible error in insert_data_stream when copying between
  pack repositories over bzr+ssh or bzr+http.
  KnitVersionedFile.get_data_stream now makes sure that
  requested compression parents are sent before any delta hunks
  that depend on them.
  * Fix typo in limiting offsets coalescing for http, leading to
  whole files being downloaded instead of parts.
  * FTP server errors don't error in the error handling code.
  * Give a clearer message when a pull fails because the source
  needs to be reconciled.
  * It is clearer when a plugin cannot be loaded because of its
  name, and a suggestion for an acceptable name is given.
  * Leave port as None in transport objects if user doesn't
  specify a port in urls.
  * Make sure Repository.fetch(self) is properly a no-op for all
  Repository implementations.
  * Mark .bzr directories as "hidden" on Windows.
  * ``merge --uncommitted`` can now operate on a single file.
  * Obsolete packs are now cleaned up by pack and autopack
  operations.
  * Operations pulling data from a smart server where the
  underlying repositories are not both annotated/both
  unannotated will now work.
  * Reconcile now shows progress bars.
  * ``RemoteBranch`` was not initializing
  ``self._revision_id_to_revno_map`` properly.
  * Removing an already-removed file reports the file does not
  exist.
  * Rename on Windows is able to change filename case.
  * Return error instead of a traceback for ``bzr log -r0``.
  * Return error instead of a traceback when bzr is unable to
  create symlink on some platforms (e.g. on Windows).
  * Revert doesn't crash when restoring a single file from a
  deleted directory.
  * Stderr output via logging mechanism now goes through encoded
  wrapper and no more uses utf-8, but terminal encoding instead.
  So all unicode strings now should be readable in non-utf-8
  terminal.
  * The error message when ``move --after`` should be used makes
  how to do so clearer.
  * Unicode-safe output from ``bzr info``. The output will be
  encoded using the terminal encoding and unrepresentable
  characters will be replaced by '?'.
  * Working trees are no longer created when pushing into a local
  no-trees repo.
  * Upgrade util/configobj to version 4.4.0.
  * Wrap medusa ftp test server as an FTPServer feature.
  * ``osutils.backup_file`` is deprecated. Actually it's not used
  in bzrlib during very long time.
  * The return value of
  ``VersionedFile.iter_lines_added_or_present_in_versions`` has
  been changed. Previously it was an iterator of lines, now it
  is an iterator of (line, version_id) tuples. This change has
  been made to aid reconcile and fetch operations.
  * ``bzrlib.repository.get_versioned_file_checker`` is now
  private.
  * The Repository format registry default has been removed; it
  was previously obsoleted by the bzrdir format default, which
  implies a default repository format.
  * Added ``ContainerSerialiser`` and ``ContainerPushParser`` to
  ``bzrlib.pack``.  These classes provide more convenient APIs
  for generating and parsing containers from streams rather than
  from files.
  * New module ``lru_cache`` providing a cache for use by tasks
  that need semi-random access to large amounts of data.
  * InventoryEntry.diff is now deprecated.  Please use
  diff.DiffTree instead.
  * ``bzr`` now returns exit code 4 if an internal error occurred,
  and 3 if a normal error occurred.
  * ``pull``, ``merge`` and ``push`` will no longer silently
  correct some repository index errors that occured as a result
  of the Weave disk format. Instead the ``reconcile`` command
  needs to be run to correct those problems if they exist (and
  it has been able to fix most such problems since bzr 0.8).
  Some new problems have been identified during this release and
  you should run ``bzr check`` once on every repository to see
  if you need to reconcile. If you cannot ``pull`` or ``merge``
  from a remote repository due to mismatched parent errors - a
  symptom of index errors - you should simply take a full copy
  of that remote repository to a clean directory outside any
  local repositories, then run reconcile on it, and finally pull
  from it locally. (And naturally email the repositories owner
  to ask them to upgrade and run reconcile).
  * New ``knitpack-experimental`` repository format. This is
  interoperable with the ``dirstate-tags`` format but uses a
  smarter storage design that greatly speeds up many operations,
  both local and remote. This new format can be used as an
  option to the ``init``, ``init-repository`` and ``upgrade``
  commands. See
  http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/0.92/developers/knitpack.html for
  further details.
  * For users of bzr-svn (and those testing the prototype subtree
  support) that wish to try packs, a new
  ``knitpack-subtree-experimental`` format has also been added.
  This is interoperable with the ``dirstate-subtrees`` format.
  * New ``reconfigure`` command.
  * New ``revert --forget-merges`` command, which removes the
  record of a pending merge without affecting the working tree
  contents.
  * New ``bzr_remote_path`` configuration variable allows finer
  control of remote bzr locations than BZR_REMOTE_PATH
  environment variable.
  * New ``launchpad-login`` command to tell Bazaar your Launchpad
  user ID.  This can then be used by other functions of the
  Launchpad plugin.
  * Commit in quiet mode is now slightly faster as the information
  to output is no longer calculated.
  * Commit no longer checks for new text keys during insertion
  when the revision id was deterministically unique.
  * Committing a change which is not a merge and does not change
  the number of files in the tree is faster by utilising the
  data about whether files are changed to determine if the tree
  is unchanged rather than recalculating it at the end of the
  commit process.
  * Inventory serialisation no longer double-sha's the content.
  * Knit text reconstruction now avoids making copies of the lines
  list for interim texts when building a single text. The new
  ``apply_delta`` method on ``KnitContent`` aids this by
  allowing modification of the revision id such objects
  represent.
  * Pack indices are now partially parsed for specific key lookup
  using a bisection approach.
  * Partial commits are now approximately 40%% faster by walking
  over the unselected current tree more efficiently.
  * XML inventory serialisation takes 20%% less time while being
  stricter about the contents.
  * Graph ``heads()`` queries have been fixed to no longer access
  all history unnecessarily.
  * ``bzr+https://`` smart server across https now supported.
  * Mutt is now a supported mail client; set ``mail_client=mutt``
  in your bazaar.conf and ``send`` will use mutt.
  * New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``merge`` command for
  cherrypicking changes from one revision.
  * Show encodings, locale and list of plugins in the traceback
  message.
  * Experimental directory formats can now be marked with
  ``experimental = True`` during registration.
  * New *Bazaar in Five Minutes* guide.
  * The hooks reference documentation is now converted to html as
  expected.
  * Connection error reporting for the smart server has been fixed
  to display a user friendly message instead of a traceback.
  * Make sure to use ``O_BINARY`` when opening files to check
  their sha1sum.
  * Fix a problem with Win32 handling of the executable bit.
  * ``bzr+ssh://`` and ``sftp://`` URLs that do not specify ports
  explicitly no longer assume that means port 22.  This allows
  people using OpenSSH to override the default port in their
  ``~/.ssh/config`` if they wish.  This fixes a bug introduced
  in bzr 0.91.
  * Commands reporting exceptions can now be profiled and still
  have their data correctly dumped to a file. For example, a
  ``bzr commit`` with no changes still reports the operation as
  pointless but doing so no longer throws away the profiling
  data if this command is run with ``--lsprof-file
  callgrind.out.ci`` say.
  * Fallback to ftp when paramiko is not installed and sftp can't
  be used for ``tests/commands`` so that the test suite is still
  usable without paramiko.
  * Fix commit ordering in corner case.
  * Fix long standing bug in partial commit when there are renames
  left in tree.
  * Fix selftest semi-random noise during http related tests.
  * Fix typo in ftp.py making the reconnection fail on temporary
  errors.
  * Fix failing test by comparing real paths to cover the case
  where the TMPDIR contains a symbolic link.
  * Fix log against smart server branches that don't support tags.
  * Fix pycurl http implementation by defining error codes from
  pycurl instead of relying on an old curl definition.
  * Fix 'unprintable error' message when displaying BzrCheckError
  and some other exceptions on Python 2.5.
  * Fix ``Inventory.copy()`` and add test for it.
  * Handles default value for ListOption in cmd_commit.
  * HttpServer and FtpServer need to be closed properly or a
  listening socket will remain opened.
  * Monitor the .bzr directory created in the top level test
  directory to detect leaking tests.
  * The basename, not the full path, is now used when checking
  whether the profiling dump file begins with ``callgrind.out``
  or not. This fixes a bug reported by Aaron Bentley on IRC.
  * Trivial fix for invoking command ``reconfigure`` without
  arguments.
  * ``WorkingTree.rename_one`` will now raise an error if
  normalisation of the new path causes bzr to be unable to
  access the file.
  * Correctly detect a NoSuchFile when using a filezilla server.
  * ``bzrlib.index.GraphIndex`` now requires a size parameter to
  the constructor, for enabling bisection searches.
  * ``CommitBuilder.record_entry_contents`` now requires the root
  entry of a tree be supplied to it, previously failing to do so
  would trigger a deprecation warning.
  * ``KnitVersionedFile.add*`` will no longer cache added records
  even when enable_cache() has been called - the caching feature
  is now exclusively for reading existing data.
  * ``ReadOnlyLockError`` is deprecated; ``LockFailed`` is usually
  more appropriate.
  * Removed ``bzrlib.transport.TransportLogger`` - please see the
  new ``trace+`` transport instead.
  * Removed previously deprecated varargs interface to
  ``TestCase.run_bzr`` and deprecated methods
  ``TestCase.capture`` and ``TestCase.run_bzr_captured``.
  * Removed previous deprecated ``basis_knit`` parameter to the
  ``KnitVersionedFile`` constructor.
  * Special purpose method ``TestCase.run_bzr_decode`` is moved to
  the test_non_ascii class that needs it.
  * The class ``bzrlib.repofmt.knitrepo.KnitRepository3`` has been
  folded into ``KnitRepository`` by parameters to the
  constructor.
  * The ``VersionedFile`` interface now allows content checks to
  be bypassed by supplying check_content=False.  This saves
  nearly 30%% of the minimum cost to store a version of a file.
  * Tree's with bad state such as files with no length or sha will
  no longer be silently accepted by the repository XML
  serialiser. To serialise inventories without such data, pass
  working=True to write_inventory.
  * ``VersionedFile.fix_parents`` has been removed as a harmful
  API. ``VersionedFile.join`` will no longer accept different
  parents on either side of a join - it will either ignore them,
  or error, depending on the implementation. See notes when
  upgrading for more information.
  * ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.put_file`` now returns the number
  of bytes put by the method call, to allow avoiding
  stat-after-write or housekeeping in callers.
  * ``bzrlib.xml_serializer.Serializer`` is now responsible for
  checking that mandatory attributes are present on
  serialisation and deserialisation. This fixes some holes in
  API usage and allows better separation between physical
  storage and object serialisation.
  * New class ``bzrlib.errors.InternalBzrError`` which is just a
  convenient shorthand for deriving from BzrError and setting
  internal_error = True.
  * New method
  ``bzrlib.mutabletree.update_to_one_parent_via_delta`` for
  moving the state of a parent tree to a new version via a delta
  rather than a complete replacement tree.
  * New method ``bzrlib.osutils.minimum_path_selection`` useful
  for removing duplication from user input, when a user mentions
  both a path and an item contained within that path.
  * New method ``bzrlib.repository.Repository.is_write_locked``
  useful for determining if a repository is write locked.
  * New method on ``bzrlib.tree.Tree`` ``path_content_summary``
  provides a tuple containing the key information about a path
  for commit processing to complete.
  * New method on xml serialisers, write_inventory_to_lines, which
  matches the API used by knits for adding content.
  * New module ``bzrlib.bisect_multi`` with generic
  multiple-bisection-at-once logic, currently only available for
  byte-based lookup (``bisect_multi_bytes``).
  * New helper ``bzrlib.tuned_gzip.bytes_to_gzip`` which takes a
  byte string and returns a gzipped version of the same. This is
  used to avoid a bunch of api friction during adding of knit
  hunks.
  * New parameter on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.readv``
  ``adjust_for_latency`` which changes readv from returning
  strictly the requested data to inserted return larger ranges
  and in forward read order to reduce the effect of network
  latency.
  * New parameter yield_parents on
  ``Inventory.iter_entries_by_dir`` which causes the parents of
  a selected id to be returned recursively, so all the paths
  from the root down to each element of selected_file_ids are
  returned.
  * Knit joining has been enhanced to support plain to annotated
  conversion and annotated to plain conversion.
  * The CommitBuilder method ``record_entry_contents`` now returns
  summary information about the effect of the commit on the
  repository. This tuple contains an inventory delta item if the
  entry changed from the basis, and a boolean indicating whether
  a new file graph node was recorded.
  * The python path used in the Makefile can now be overridden.
  * New transport implementation ``trace+`` which is useful for
  testing, logging activity taken to its _activity attribute.
  * When running bzr commands within the test suite, internal
  exceptions are not caught and reported in the usual way, but
  rather allowed to propagate up and be visible to the test
  suite.  A new API ``run_bzr_catch_user_errors`` makes this
  behavior available to other users.
  * New method ``TestCase.call_catch_warnings`` for testing
  methods that raises a Python warning.
  * Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py
  install`` process if building of a C extension is not
  possible.
  * Fix commit ordering in corner case
  * Fix ''bzr info bzr://host/'' and other operations on ''bzr://'
  URLs with an implicit port.  We were incorrectly raising
  PathNotChild due to inconsistent treatment of the ''_port''
  attribute on the Transport object.
  * Make RemoteRepository.sprout cope gracefully with servers that
  don't support the ``Repository.tarball`` request.
  * Replaced incorrect tarball for previous release; a debug
  statement was left in bzrlib/remote.py.
  * The default branch and repository format has changed to
  ``dirstate-tags``, so tag commands are active by default. This
  format is compatible with Bazaar 0.15 and later. This
  incidentally fixes bug #126141.
  * ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is no longer a global option. If
  present, it must now appear after the command name. Scripts
  doing things like ``bzr -q missing`` need to be rewritten as
  ``bzr missing -q``.
  * New option ``--author`` in ``bzr commit`` to specify the
  author of the change, if it's different from the committer.
  ``bzr log`` and ``bzr annotate`` display the author instead of
  the committer.
  * In addition to global options and command specific options, a
  set of standard options are now supported. Standard options
  are legal for all commands. The initial set of standard
  options are:
  * ``--help`` or ``-h`` - display help message
  * ``--verbose`` or ``-v`` - display additional information
  * ``--quiet``  or ``-q`` - only output warnings and errors.
  Unlike global options, standard options can be used in aliases
  and may have command-specific help.
  * Verbosity level processing has now been unified. If
  ``--verbose`` or ``-v`` is specified on the command line
  multiple times, the verbosity level is made positive the first
  time then increased. If ``--quiet`` or ``-q`` is specified on
  the command line multiple times, the verbosity level is made
  negative the first time then decreased. To get the default
  verbosity level of zero, either specify none of the above ,
  ``--no-verbose`` or ``--no-quiet``. Note that most commands
  currently ignore the magnitude of the verbosity level but do
  respect *quiet vs normal vs verbose* when generating output.
  * ``Branch.hooks`` now supports ``pre_commit`` hook. The hook's
  signature is documented in BranchHooks constructor.
  * New ``Repository.stream_knit_data_for_revisions`` request
  added to the network protocol for greatly reduced roundtrips
  when retrieving a set of revisions.
  * ``bzr plugins`` now lists the version number for each plugin
  in square brackets after the path.
  * Pushing, pulling and branching branches with subtree
  references was not copying the subtree weave, preventing the
  file graph from being accessed and causing errors in commits
  in clones.
  * Suppress warning "integer argument expected, got float" from
  Paramiko, which sometimes caused false test failures.
  * Fix bug in bundle 4 that could cause attempts to write data to
  wrong versionedfile.
  * Diffs generated using "diff -p" no longer break the patch
  parser.
  * get_transport treats an empty possible_transports list the
  same as a non- empty one.
  * patch verification for merge directives is reactivated, and
  works with CRLF and CR files.
  * Accept ..\ as a path in revision specifiers. This fixes for
  example "-r branch:..\other-branch" on Windows.
  * ``BZR_PLUGIN_PATH`` may now contain trailing slashes.
  * man page no longer lists hidden options
  * ``uncommit --help`` now explains the -r option adequately.
  * Error messages are now better formatted with parameters (such
  as filenames) quoted when necessary. This avoids confusion
  when directory names ending in a '.' at the end of messages
  were confused with a full stop that may or not have been
  there.
  * Fix ``status FILE -r X..Y``.
  * If a particular command is an alias, ``help`` will show the
  alias instead of claiming there is no help for said alias.
  * TreeTransform-based operations, like pull, merge, revert, and
  branch, now roll back if they encounter an error.
  * ``bzr commit`` now exits cleanly if a character unsupported by
  the current encoding is used in the commit message.
  * bzr send uses default values for ranges when only half of an
  elipsis is specified ("-r..5" or "-r5..").
  * Avoid trouble when Windows ssh calls itself 'plink' but no
  plink binary is present.
  * ``bzr remove`` should remove clean subtrees.  Now it will
  remove (without needing ``--force``) subtrees that contain no
  files with text changes or modified files.  With ``--force``
  it removes the subtree regardless of text changes or unknown
  files. Directories with renames in or out (but not changed
  otherwise) will now be removed without needing ``--force``.
  Unknown ignored files will be deleted without needing
  ``--force``.
  * When two plugins conflict, the source of both the losing and
  now the winning definition is shown.
  * When committing to a branch, the location being committed to
  is displayed.
  * ``bzr --version`` takes care about encoding of stdout,
  especially when output is redirected.
  * Prompt for an ftp password if none is provided.
  * Reuse bound branch associated transport to avoid multiple
  connections.
  * Overwrite conflicting tags by ``push`` and ``pull`` if the
  ``--overwrite`` option is specified.
  * In checkouts, tags are copied into the master branch when
  created, changed or deleted, and are copied into the checkout
  when it is updated.
  * Print a warning instead of aborting the ``python setup.py
  install`` process if building of a C extension is not
  possible.
  * Add the option "--show-diff" to the commit command in order to
  display the diff during the commit log creation.
  * ``pull`` and ``merge`` are much faster at installing bundle
  format 4.
  * ``pull -v`` no longer includes deltas, making it much faster.
  * ``send`` now sends the directive as an attachment by default.
  * Documentation updates
  * Help on debug flags is now included in ``help
  global-options``.
  * Parameters passed on the command line are checked to ensure
  they are supported by the encoding in use.
  * The compression used within the bzr repository has changed
  from zlib level 9 to the zlib default level. This improves
  commit performance with only a small increase in space used
  (and in some cases a reduction in space).
  * Initial commit no longer SHAs files twice and now reuses the
  path rather than looking it up again, making it faster.
  * New option ``-c``/``--change`` for ``diff`` and ``status`` to
  show changes in one revision.
  * If versioned files match a given ignore pattern, a warning is
  now given.
  * ``bzr status`` now has -S as a short name for --short and -V
  as a short name for --versioned. These have been added to
  assist users migrating from Subversion: ``bzr status -SV`` is
  now like ``svn status -q``.
  * Added C implementation of  ``PatienceSequenceMatcher``, which
  is about 10x faster than the Python version. This speeds up
  commands that need file diffing, such as ``bzr commit`` or
  ``bzr diff``.
  * HACKING has been extended with a large section on core
  developer tasks.
  * Add ``branches`` and ``standalone-trees`` as online help
  topics and include them as Concepts within the User Reference.
  * ``check`` can detect versionedfile parent references that are
  inconsistent with revision and inventory info, and
  ``reconcile`` can fix them.  These faulty references were
  generated by 0.8-era releases, so repositories which were
  manipulated by old bzrs should be checked, and possibly
  reconciled ASAP.
  * ``Branch.append_revision`` is removed altogether; please use
  ``Branch.set_last_revision_info`` instead.
  * CommitBuilder now advertises itself as requiring the root
  entry to be supplied. This only affects foreign repository
  implementations which reuse CommitBuilder directly and have
  changed record_entry_contents to require that the root not be
  supplied. This should be precisely zero plugins affected.
  * The ``add_lines`` methods on ``VersionedFile`` implementations
  has changed its return value to include the sha1 and length of
  the inserted text. This allows the avoidance of double-sha1
  calculations during commit.
  * ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed.  It was not
  called in the previous release.
  * Tests may now raise TestNotApplicable to indicate they
  shouldn't be run in a particular scenario.
  * New function multiply_tests_from_modules to give a simpler
  interface to test parameterization.
  * ``Transport.should_cache`` has been removed.  It was not
  called in the previous release.
  * NULL_REVISION is returned to indicate the null revision, not
  None.
  * Use UTF-8 encoded StringIO for log tests to avoid failures on
  non-ASCII committer names.
  * ``bzrlib.plugin.all_plugins`` has been deprecated in favour of
  ``bzrlib.plugin.plugins()`` which returns PlugIn objects that
  provide useful functionality for determining the path of a
  plugin, its tests, and its version information.
  * Add the option user_encoding to the function
  'show_diff_trees()' in order to move the user encoding at the
  UI level.
  * Add the function make_commit_message_template_encoded() and
  the function edit_commit_message_encoded() which handle
  encoded strings. This is done in order to mix the commit
  messages (which is a unicode string), and the diff which is a
  raw string.
  * CommitBuilder now defaults to using add_lines_with_ghosts,
  reducing overhead on non-weave repositories which don't
  require all parents to be present.
  * Deprecated method ``find_previous_heads`` on
  ``bzrlib.inventory.InventoryEntry``. This has been superseded
  by the use of ``parent_candidates`` and a separate heads check
  via the repository API.
  * New trace function ``mutter_callsite`` will print out a subset
  of the stack to the log, which can be useful for gathering
  debug details.
  * ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now tracks how many records
  have been added via a public attribute records_written.
  * New method
  ``bzrlib.transport.Transport.get_recommended_page_size``. This
  provides a hint to users of transports as to the reasonable
  minimum data to read. In principle this can take latency and
  bandwidth into account on a per-connection basis, but for now
  it just has hard coded values based on the url. (e.g. http://
  has a large page size, file:// has a small one.)
  * New method on ``bzrlib.transport.Transport``
  ``open_write_stream`` allows incremental addition of data to a
  file without requiring that all the data be buffered in
  memory.
  * New methods on ``bzrlib.knit.KnitVersionedFile``:
  ``get_data_stream(versions)``, ``insert_data_stream(stream)``
  and ``get_format_signature()``.  These provide some
  infrastructure for efficiently streaming the knit data for a
  set of versions over the smart protocol.
  * Knits with no annotation cache still produce correct
  annotations.
  * Three new methods have been added to ``bzrlib.trace``:
  ``set_verbosity_level``, ``get_verbosity_level`` and
  ``is_verbose``. ``set_verbosity_level`` expects a numeric
  value: negative for quiet, zero for normal, positive for
  verbose. The size of the number can be used to determine just
  how quiet or verbose the application should be. The existing
  ``be_quiet`` and ``is_quiet`` routines have been integrated
  into this new scheme.
  * Options can now be delcared with a ``custom_callback``
  parameter. If set, this routine is called after the option is
  processed. This feature is now used by the standard options
  ``verbose`` and ``quiet`` so that setting one implicitly
  resets the other.
  * Rather than declaring a new option from scratch in order to
  provide custom help, a centrally registered option can be
  decorated using the new ``bzrlib.Option.custom_help`` routine.
  In particular, this routine is useful when declaring better
  help for the ``verbose`` and ``quiet`` standard options as the
  base definition of these is now more complex than before
  thanks to their use of a custom callback.
  * Tree._iter_changes(specific_file=[]) now iterates through no
  files, instead of iterating through all files.  None is used
  to iterate through all files.
  * WorkingTree.revert() now accepts None to revert all files.
  The use of [] to revert all files is deprecated.
  * Documentation is now organized into multiple directories with
  a level added for different languages or locales. Added the
  Mini Tutorial and Quick Start Summary (en) documents from the
  Wiki, improving the content and readability of the former.
  Formatted NEWS as Release Notes complete with a Table of
  Conents, one heading per release. Moved the Developer Guide
  into the main document catalog and provided a link from the
  developer document catalog back to the main one.
  * The static convenience method ``BzrDir.create_repository`` is
  deprecated.  Callers should instead create a ``BzrDir``
  instance and call ``create_repository`` on that.
  * ``bzr init`` should connect to the remote location one time
  only.  We have been connecting several times because we forget
  to pass around the Transport object. This modifies
  ``BzrDir.create_branch_convenience``, so that we can give it
  the Transport we already have.
  * Get rid of sftp connection cache (get rid of the FTP one too).
  * bzr branch {local|remote} remote don't try to create a working
  tree anymore.
  * All identified multiple connections for a single bzr command
  have been fixed. See bzrlib/tests/commands directory.
  * ``bzr rm`` now does not insist on ``--force`` to delete files
  that have been renamed but not otherwise modified.
  * ``bzr selftest --bench`` no longer emits deprecation warnings
  * ``bzr status`` now honours FILE parameters for conflict lists
  * ``bzr checkout`` now honours -r when reconstituting a working
  tree. It also honours -r 0.
  * ``bzr add *`` no more fails on Windows if working tree
  contains non-ascii file names.
  * allow ``easy_install bzr`` runs without fatal errors.
  * Graph._filter_candidate_lca does not raise KeyError if a
  candidate is eliminated just before it would normally be
  examined.
  * SMTP connection failures produce a nice message, not a
  traceback.
  * Don't show "dots" progress indicators when run
  non-interactively, such as from cron.
  * ``info`` now formats locations more nicely and lists "submit"
  and "public" branches
  * New ``pack`` command that will trigger database compression
  within the repository
  * Implement ``_KnitIndex._load_data`` in a pyrex extension. The
  pyrex version is approximately 2-3x faster at parsing a
  ``.kndx`` file. Which yields a measurable improvement for
  commands which have to read from the repository, such as a 1s
  => 0.75s improvement in ``bzr diff`` when there are changes to
  be shown.
  * Merge is now faster.  Depending on the scenario, it can be
  more than 2x faster.
  * Give a clearer warning, and allow ``python setup.py install``
  to succeed even if pyrex is not available.
  * ``DirState._read_dirblocks`` now has an optional Pyrex
  implementation. This improves the speed of any command that
  has to read the entire DirState. (``diff``, ``status``, etc,
  improve by about 10%%).
  * ``bisect_dirblocks`` has also been improved, which helps all
  ``_get_entry`` type calls (whenever we are searching for a
  particular entry in the in-memory DirState).
  * ``bzr pull`` and ``bzr push`` no longer do a complete walk of
  the branch revision history for ui display unless -v is
  supplied.
  * ``bzr log -rA..B`` output shifted to the left margin if the
  log only contains merge revisions.
  * The ``plugins`` command is now public with improved help.
  * New bundle and merge directive formats are faster to generate,
  and
  * Annotate merge now works when there are local changes.
  * Commit now only shows the progress in terms of directories
  instead of entries.
  * Fix ``KnitRepository.get_revision_graph`` to not request the
  graph 2 times. This makes ``get_revision_graph`` 2x faster.
  * Fix ``VersionedFile.get_graph()`` to avoid using
  ``set.difference_update(other)``, which has bad scaling when
  ``other`` is large. This improves
  ``VF.get_graph([version_id])`` for a 12.5k graph from 2.9s
  down to 200ms.
  * The ``--lsprof-file`` option now generates output for
  KCacheGrind if the file starts with ``callgrind.out``. This
  matches the default file filtering done by KCacheGrind's Open
  Dialog.
  * Fix ``bzr update`` to avoid an unnecessary
  ``branch.get_master_branch`` call, which avoids 1 extra
  connection to the remote server.
  * Log errors from the smart server in the trace file, to make
  debugging test failures (and live failures!) easier.
  * The HTML version of the man page has been superceded by a more
  comprehensive manual called the Bazaar User Reference. This
  manual is completed generated from the online help topics. As
  part of this change, limited reStructuredText is now
  explicitly supported in help topics and command help with
  'unnatural' markup being removed prior to display by the
  online help or inclusion in the man page.
  * HTML documentation now use files extension ``*.html``
  * The cache of ignore definitions is now cleared in
  WorkingTree.unlock() so that changes to .bzrignore aren't
  missed.
  * ``bzr selftest --strict`` fails if there are any missing
  features or expected test failures.
  * Link to registration survey added to README.
  * Windows standalone installer show link to registration survey
  when installation finished.
  * Deprecated dictionary ``bzrlib.option.SHORT_OPTIONS`` removed.
  Options are now required to provide a help string and it must
  comply with the style guide by being one or more sentences
  with an initial capital and final period.
  * KnitIndex.get_parents now returns tuples.
  * Ancient unused ``Repository.text_store`` attribute has been
  removed.
  * The ``bzrlib.pack`` interface has changed to use tuples of
  bytestrings rather than just bytestrings, making it easier to
  represent multiple element names. As this interface was not
  used by any internal facilities since it was introduced in
  0.18 no API compatibility is being preserved. The serialised
  form of these packs is identical with 0.18 when a single
  element tuple is in use.
  * merge now uses ``iter_changes`` to calculate changes, which
  makes room for future performance increases.  It is also more
  consistent with other operations that perform comparisons, and
  reduces reliance on Tree.inventory.
  * Refactoring of transport classes connected to a remote server.
  ConnectedTransport is a new class that serves as a basis for
  all transports needing to connect to a remote server.
  transport.split_url have been deprecated, use the static
  method on the object instead. URL tests have been refactored
  too.
  * Better connection sharing for ConnectedTransport objects.
  transport.get_transport() now accepts a 'possible_transports'
  parameter. If a newly requested transport can share a
  connection with one of the list, it will.
  * Most functions now accept ``bzrlib.revision.NULL_REVISION`` to
  indicate the null revision, and consider using ``None`` for
  this purpose deprecated.
  * New ``index`` module with abstract index functionality. This
  will be used during the planned changes in the repository
  layer. Currently the index layer provides a graph aware
  immutable index, a builder for the same index type to allow
  creating them, and finally a composer for such indices to
  allow the use of many indices in a single query. The index
  performance is not optimised, however the API is stable to
  allow development on top of the index.
  * ``bzrlib.dirstate.cmp_by_dirs`` can be used to compare two
  paths by their directory sections. This is equivalent to
  comparing ``path.split('/')``, only without having to split
  the paths. This has a Pyrex implementation available.
  * New transport decorator 'unlistable+' which disables the
  list_dir functionality for testing.
  * Deprecated ``change_entry`` in transform.py.
  * RevisionTree.get_weave is now deprecated.  Tree.plan_merge is
  now used for performing annotate-merge.
  * New EmailMessage class to create email messages.
  * Unused functions on the private interface KnitIndex have been
  removed.
  * New ``knit.KnitGraphIndex`` which provides a ``KnitIndex``
  layered on top of a ``index.GraphIndex``.
  * New ``knit.KnitVersionedFile.iter_parents`` method that allows
  querying the parents of many knit nodes at once, reducing
  round trips to the underlying index.
  * Graph now has an is_ancestor method, various bits use it.
  * The ``-Dhpss`` flag now includes timing information. As well
  as logging when a new connection is opened.
  * ``bzrlib.pack.ContainerWriter`` now returns an offset, length
  tuple to callers when inserting data, allowing generation of
  readv style access during pack creation, without needing a
  separate pass across the output pack to gather such details.
  * ``bzrlib.pack.make_readv_reader`` allows readv based access to
  pack files that are stored on a transport.
  * New ``Repository.has_same_location`` method that reports if
  two repository objects refer to the same repository (although
  with some risk of false negatives).
  * InterTree.compare now passes require_versioned on correctly.
  * New methods on Repository - ``start_write_group``,
  ``commit_write_group``, ``abort_write_group`` and
  ``is_in_write_group`` - which provide a clean hook point for
  transactional Repositories - ones where all the data for a
  fetch or commit needs to be made atomically available in one
  step. This allows the write lock to remain while making a
  series of data insertions (e.g. data conversion).
  * In ``bzrlib.knit`` the internal interface has been altered to
  use 3-tuples (index, pos, length) rather than two-tuples (pos,
  length) to describe where data in a knit is, allowing knits to
  be split into many files.
  * ``bzrlib.knit._KnitData`` split into cache management and
  physical access with two access classes - ``_PackAccess`` and
  ``_KnitAccess`` defined. The former provides access into a
  .pack file, and the latter provides the current production
  repository form of .knit files.
  * Remove selftest ``--clean-output``, ``--numbered-dirs`` and
  ``--keep-output`` options, which are obsolete now that tests
  are done within directories in $TMPDIR.
  * The SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable is now reset to avoid
  interaction with any running ssh agents.
  * run_bzr_subprocess handles parameters the same way as run_bzr:
  either a string or a list of strings should be passed as the
  first parameter.  Varargs-style parameters are deprecated.
* Mon Jul 30 2007 kssingvo@suse.de
- upgrade to version 0.18:
  * Fix 'bzr add' crash under Win32
  * Do not suppress pipe errors, etc. in non-display commands
  * Display a useful error message when the user requests to
  annotate a file that is not present in the specified revision.
  * Commands that use status flags now have a reference to 'help
  status-flags'.
  * Work around python-2.4.1 inhability to correctly parse the
  authentication header.
  * Use exact encoding for merge directives.
  * Fix tempfile permissions error in smart server tar bundling
  under Windows.
  * Fix detection of directory entries in the inventory.
  * Fix handling of http code 400: Bad Request When issuing too
  many ranges.
  * Issue a CONNECT request when connecting to an https server via
  a proxy to enable SSL tunneling.
  * Fix ``bzr log -r`` to support selecting merge revisions, both
  individually and as part of revision ranges.
  * Don't leave cruft behind when failing to acquire a lockdir.
  * Don't use the '-f' strace option during tests.
  * Warn when setting ``push_location`` to a value that will be
  masked by locations.conf.
  * Fix commit ordering in corner case
  *  Make annotate behave in a non-ASCII world
  * 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
  http://ddaa.net/blog/python/lsprof-calltree.
  * ``info`` now defaults to non-verbose mode, displaying only
  paths and abbreviated format info.  ``info -v`` displays all
  the information formerly displayed by ``info``.
  * ``bzr missing`` now has better option names ``--this`` and
  ``--other``.
  * The internal ``weave-list`` command has become
  ``versionedfile-list``, and now lists knits as well as weaves.
  * Automatic merge base selection uses a faster algorithm that
  chooses better bases in criss-cross merge situations
  * Progress reporting in ``commit`` has been improved. The various
  logical stages are now reported on as follows, namely:
  + Collecting changes [Entry x/y] - Stage n/m
  + Saving data locally - Stage n/m
  + Uploading data to master branch - Stage n/m
  + Updating the working tree - Stage n/m
  + Running post commit hooks - Stage n/m
  number of stages is adjusted accordingly.
  Each hook that is run after commit is listed with a name (as
  hooks can be slow it is useful feedback).
  * Various operations that are now faster due to avoiding
  unnecessary topological sorts.
  * Make merge directives robust against broken bundles.
  * The lsprof filename note is emitted via trace.note(), not
  standard
  * ``bzrlib`` now exports explicit API compatibility information
  to assist library users and plugins. See the ``bzrlib.api``
  module for details.
  * Remove unnecessary lock probes when acquiring a lockdir.
  * ``bzr --version`` now shows the location of the bzr log file,
  which is especially useful on Windows.
  * -D now supports hooks to get debug tracing of hooks (though its
  currently minimal in nature).
  * Long log format reports deltas on merge revisions.
  * Make initial push over ftp more resilient.
  * Print a summary of changes for update just like pull does.
  * Add a -Dhpss option to trace smart protocol requests and
  responses.
  * Relocate TestCaseWithRepository to be more central.
  * ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` will no longer perform glob
  expansion on win32. Callers of the function should do this and
  use the new ``MutableTree.smart_add`` method instead.
  * ``bzrlib.add.glob_expand_for_win32`` is now
  ``bzrlib.win32utils.glob_expand``.
  * ``bzrlib.add.FastPath`` is now private and moved to
  ``bzrlib.mutabletree._FastPath``.
  * ``LockDir.wait`` removed.
  * The ``SmartServer`` hooks API has changed for the
  ``server_started`` and ``server_stopped`` 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 file:// URL will be at the
  same location.
  * New SMTPConnection class to unify email handling.
  * Fix documentation of BzrError.
  * Make BzrBadParameter an internal error.
  * Remove use of 'assert False' to raise an exception
  unconditionally.
  * Give a cleaner error when failing to decode knit index entry.
  * 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.
  * Improve ``make api-docs`` output.
  * 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.
  * New ``-Dlock`` option to log (to ~/.bzr.log) information on
  when lockdirs are taken or released.
  * ``bzrlib`` Hooks are now nameable using ``Hooks.name_hook``.
  This allows a nicer UI when hooks are running as the current
  hook can be displayed.
  * ``Transport.get`` 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.
  * New method ``_maybe_expand_globs`` on the ``Command`` class for
  dealing with unexpanded glob lists - e.g. on the win32
  platform. This was moved from
  ``bzrlib.add._prepare_file_list``.
  * ``bzrlib.add.smart_add`` and ``bzrlib.add.smart_add_tree`` are
  now deprecated in favour of ``MutableTree.smart_add``.
  * New method ``external_url`` on Transport for obtaining the url
  to hand to external processes.
  * Teach windows installers to build pyrex/C extensions.
  * Removed the ``--keep-output`` 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.
  * Add scenarios as a public attribute on the TestAdapter classes
  to allow modification of the generated scenarios before
  adaption and easier testing.
  * New testing support class ``TestScenarioApplier`` which
  multiplies out a single teste by a list of supplied scenarios.
  * Setting ``repository_to_test_repository`` 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
  ``bzrlib.tests.repository.repository_implementations``.
  * 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.
  * The base TestCase now isolates tests from -D parameters by
  clearing ``debug.debug_flags`` and restores it afterwards.
  * Add a relpath parameter to get_transport methods in test
  framework to avoid useless cloning.
* Wed Jul 04 2007 kssingvo@suse.de
- upgrade to version 0.17:
  * Faster status, diff, commit, branch and checkout operations
  * numerous bug fixes
  * better documentation.
  * Fix crash of commit due to wrong lookup of filesystem encoding.
  * Revert logging just to stderr in commit as broke unicode
  filenames.
  * There are two new help topics, working-trees and repositories
  that attempt to explain these concepts
  * Added ``bzr log --limit`` to report a limited number of
  revisions.
  * Revert does not try to preserve file contents that were
  originally produced by reverting to a historical revision.
  * ``bzr log --short`` now includes ``[merge]`` for revisions
  which have more than one parent. This is a small improvement to
  help understanding what changes have occurred
  * TreeTransform avoids many renames when contructing large trees,
  improving speed. 3.25x speedups have been observed for
  construction of kernel-sized-trees, and checkouts are 1.28x
  faster.
  * Commit on large trees is now faster. In my environment, a
  commit of a small change to the Mozilla tree (55k files) has
  dropped from 66 seconds to 32 seconds. For a small tree of 600
  files, commit of a small change is 33%% faster.
  * Clean up the ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes()`` internal loops as
  well as ``DirState.update_entry()``. This optimizes the core
  logic for ``bzr diff`` and ``bzr status`` significantly
  improving the speed of both.
  * The tutorial has been improved.
  * Better error message for selected file commit of merges.
  * Updated bash completion.
  * ``bzr push`` should only connect to the remote location one
  time. We have been connecting 3 times because we forget to pass
  around the Transport object. This adds
  ``BzrDir.clone_on_transport()``, so that we can pass in the
  Transport that we already have.
  * ``DirState.set_state_from_inventory()`` needs to properly order
  based on split paths, not just string paths.
  * Let TestUIFactoy encode the password prompt with its own
  stdout.
  * pycurl should take use the range header that takes the range
  hint into account.
  * WorkingTree4.get_file_sha1 no longer raises an exception when
  invoked on a missing file.
  * WorkingTree.remove works correctly with tree references, and
  when pwd is not the tree root.
  * Merge no longer fails when a file is renamed in one tree and
  deleted in the other.
  * ``revision-info`` now accepts dotted revnos, doesn't require a
  tree, and defaults to the last revision
  * Tests no longer fail when BZR_REMOTE_PATH is set in the
  environment.
  * ``bzr branch -r revid:foo`` can be used to branch any revision
  in your repository. (Previously Branch6 only supported
  revisions in your mainline).
  * 'branch lp:projname' now creates ./projname as expected.
  * Rework of LogFormatter API to provide beginning/end of log
  hooks and to encapsulate the details of the revision to be
  logged in a LogRevision object. In long log formats, merge
  revision ids are only shown when --show-ids is specified, and
  are labelled "revision-id:", as per mainline revisions, instead
  of "merged:".
  * New ``BranchBuilder`` API which allows the construction of
  particular histories quickly. Useful for testing and
  potentially other applications too.
- removed HACKING from %%doc: no longer existend
* Thu May 10 2007 kssingvo@suse.de
- upgrade to version 0.16:
  * Handle when you have 2 directories with similar names, but one
  has a hyphen. (``'abc'`` versus ``'abc-2'``). The
  WT4._iter_changes iterator was using direct comparison and
  ``'abc/a'`` sorts after ``'abc-2'``, but ``('abc', 'a')`` sorts
  before ``('abc-2',)``.
  * Handle when someone renames a file on disk without telling bzr.
  Previously we would report the first file as missing, but not
  show the new unknown file.
  * Avoid error when running hooks after pulling into or pushing
  from a branch bound to a smartserver branch.
  * Handle the case when you delete a file, and then rename another
  file on top of it. Also handle the case of ``bzr rm --keep
  foo``. ``bzr status`` should show the removed file and an
  unknown file in its place.
  * Bundles properly read and write revision properties that have
  an empty value. And when the value is not ASCII.
  * Fix the bzr commit message to be in text mode.
  * Also handle when you rename a file and create a file where it
  used to be.
  * ``WorkingTree4._iter_changes`` should not descend into
  unversioned directories.
  * ``bzr remove`` and ``bzr rm`` will now remove the working file,
  if it could be recovered again. This has been done for
  consistency with svn and the unix rm command. The old
  ``remove`` behaviour has been retained in the new option ``bzr
  remove --keep``, which will just stop versioning the file, but
  not delete it. ``bzr remove --force`` have been added which
  will always delete the files. ``bzr remove`` is also more
  verbose.
  * Merge directives can now be supplied as input to `merge` and
  `pull`, like bundles can.
  * Sending the SIGQUIT signal to bzr, which can be done on Unix by
  pressing Control-Backslash, drops bzr into a debugger. Type
  ``'c'`` to continue.  This can be disabled by setting the
  environment variable ``BZR_SIGQUIT_PDB=0``.
  * selftest now supports --list-only to list tests instead of
  running them.
  * selftest now supports --exclude PATTERN (or -x PATTERN) to
  exclude tests with names that match that regular expression.
  * selftest now supports --randomize SEED to run tests in a random
  order. SEED is typically the value 'now' meaning 'use the
  current time'.
  * New option ``--fixes`` to commit, which stores bug fixing
  annotations as revision properties. Built-in support for
  Launchpad, Debian, Trac and Bugzilla bug trackers.
  * New API, ``bzrlib.bugtracker.tracker_registry``, for adding
  support for other bug trackers to ``fixes``.
  * ``selftest`` has new short options ``-f`` and ``-1``.
  * ``bzrlib.tsort.MergeSorter`` optimizations. Change the inner
  loop into using local variables instead of going through
  ``self._var``. Improves the time to ``merge_sort`` a 10k
  revision graph by approximately 40%% (~700->400ms).
  * ``make docs`` now creates a man page at ``man1/bzr.1`` fixing
  bug 107388.
  * ``bzr help`` now provides cross references to other help topics
  using the _see_also facility on command classes. Likewise the
  bzr_man documentation, and the bzr.1 man page also include this
  information.
  * Tags are now included in logs, that use the long log formatter.
  * ``bzr help`` provides a clearer message when a help topic
  cannot be found.
  * ``bzr help`` now accepts optional prefixes for command help.
  The help for all commands can now be found at ``bzr help
  commands/COMMANDNAME`` as well as ``bzr help COMMANDNAME``
  (which only works for commands where the name is not the same
  as a more general help topic).
  * ``bzr help PLUGINNAME`` will now return the module docstring
  from the plugin PLUGINNAME.
  * New help topic ``urlspec`` which lists the availables
  transports.
  * doc/server.txt updated to document the default bzr:// port and
  also update the blurb about the hpss' current status.
  * ``bzr serve`` now listens on interface 0.0.0.0 by default,
  making it serve out to the local LAN (and anyone in the world
  that can reach the machine running ``bzr serve``.
  * A new smart server protocol version has been added.  It
  prefixes requests and responses with an explicit version
  identifier so that future protocol revisions can be dealt with
  gracefully.
  * The bzr protocol version 2 indicates success or failure in
  every response without depending on particular commands
  encoding that consistently, allowing future client refactorings
  to be much more robust about error handling.
  * The smart protocol over HTTP client has been changed to always
  post to the same ``.bzr/smart`` URL under the original location
  when it can.  This allows HTTP servers to only have to pass
  URLs ending in .bzr/smart to the smart server handler, and not
  arbitrary ``.bzr/*/smart`` URLs.
  * digest authentication is now supported for proxies and HTTP by
  the urllib based http implementation. Tested against Apache
  2.0.55 and Squid 2.6.5. Basic and digest authentication are
  handled coherently for HTTP and proxy: if the user is provided
  in the url (bzr command line for HTTP, proxy environment
  variables for proxies), the password is prompted for (only
  once). If the password is provided, it is taken into account.
  Once the first authentication is successful, all further
  authentication roundtrips are avoided by preventively setting
  the right authentication header(s).
  * bzrlib API compatability with 0.8 has been dropped, cleaning up
  some code paths.
  * Change the format of chroot urls so that they can be safely
  manipulated by generic url utilities without causing the
  resulting urls to have escaped the chroot. A side effect of
  this is that creating a chroot requires an explicit action
  using a ChrootServer.
  * Deprecate ``Branch.get_root_id()`` because branches don't have
  root ids, rather than fixing bug #96847.
  * ``WorkingTree.apply_inventory_delta`` provides a better
  alternative to ``WorkingTree._write_inventory``.
  * Convenience method ``TestCase.expectFailure`` ensures that
  known failures do not silently pass.
  * ``Transport.local_abspath`` now raises ``NotLocalUrl`` rather
  than ``TransportNotPossible``.
  * New SmartServer hooks facility. There are two initial hooks
  documented in ``bzrlib.transport.smart.SmartServerHooks``. The
  two initial hooks allow plugins to execute code upon server
  startup and shutdown.
  * SmartServer in standalone mode will now close its listening
  socket when it stops, rather than waiting for garbage
  collection. This primarily fixes test suite hangs when a test
  tries to connect to a shutdown server. It may also help improve
  behaviour when dealing with a server running on a specific port
  (rather than dynamically assigned ports).
  * Move most SmartServer code into a new package, bzrlib/smart.
  bzrlib/transport/remote.py contains just the Transport classes
  that used to be in bzrlib/transport/smart.py.
  * urllib http implementation avoid roundtrips associated with 401
  (and 407) errors once the authentication succeeds.
  * urlib http now supports querying the user for a proxy password
  if needed. Realm is shown in the prompt for both HTTP and proxy
  authentication when the user is required to type a password.
  * Renamed SmartTransport (and subclasses like SmartTCPTransport)
  to RemoteTransport (and subclasses to RemoteTCPTransport, etc).
  This is more consistent with its new home in
  ``bzrlib/transport/remote.py``, and because it's not really a
  "smart" transport, just one that does file operations via
  remote procedure calls.
  * The ``lock_write`` method of ``LockableFiles``, ``Repository``
  and ``Branch`` now accept a ``token`` keyword argument, so that
  separate instances of those objects can share a lock if it has
  the right token. (Andrew Bennetts, Robert Collins)
  * New method ``get_branch_reference`` on ``BzrDir`` allows the
  detection of branch references - which the smart server
  component needs.
  * The Repository API ``make_working_trees`` is now permitted to
  return False when ``set_make_working_trees`` is not implemented
    - previously an unimplemented ``set_make_working_trees``
  implied the result True from ``make_working_trees``. This has
  been changed to accomodate the smart server, where it does not
  make sense (at this point) to ever make working trees by
  default.
  * Command objects can now declare related help topics by having
  _see_also set to a list of related topic.
  * ``bzrlib.help`` now delegates to the Command class for Command
  specific help.
  * New class ``TransportListRegistry``, derived from the Registry
  class, which simplifies tracking the available Transports.
  * New function ``Branch.get_revision_id_to_revno_map`` which will
  return a dictionary mapping revision ids to dotted revnos.
  Since dotted revnos are defined in the context of the branch
  tip, it makes sense to generate them from a ``Branch`` object.
  * Fix the 'Unprintable error' message display to use the repr of
  the exception that prevented printing the error because the str
  value for it is often not useful in debugging (e.g.
  KeyError('foo') has a str() of 'foo' but a repr of
  'KeyError('foo')' which is much more useful.
  * ``urlutils.normalize_url`` now unescapes unreserved characters,
  such as "~".
  * Remove ``--verbose`` from ``bzr bundle``. It didn't work
  anyway. (Robert Widhopf-Fenk, #98591)
  * Remove ``--basis`` from the checkout/branch commands - it
  didn't work properly and is no longer beneficial.
  * Don't produce encoding error when adding duplicate files.
  * Fix ``bzr log <file>`` so it only logs the revisions that
  changed the file, and does it faster.
  * Fix ``InterDirstateTre._iter_changes`` to handle when we come
  across an empty versioned directory, which now has files in it.
  * Teach ``common_ancestor`` to shortcut when the tip of one
  branch is inside the ancestry of the other. Saves a lot of
  graph processing (with an ancestry of 16k revisions, ``bzr
  merge ../already-merged`` changes from 2m10s to 13s).
  * Fix ``show_diff_trees`` to handle the case when a file is
  modified, and the containing directory is renamed. (The file
  path is different in this versus base, but it isn't marked as a
  rename).
  * FTP now works even when the FTP server does not support atomic
  rename.
  * Correct handling in bundles and merge directives of timezones
  with that are not an integer number of hours offset from UTC.
  Always represent the epoch time in UTC to avoid problems with
  formatting earlier times on win32.
  * Typo in the help for ``register-branch`` fixed.
  * "dirstate" and "dirstate-tags" formats now produce branches
  compatible with old versions of bzr.
  * Handle moving a directory when children have been added,
  removed, and renamed.
  * Don't preventively use basic authentication for proxy before
  receiving a 407 error. Otherwise people willing to use other
  authentication schemes may expose their password in the clear
  (or nearly). This add one roundtrip in case basic
  authentication should be used, but plug the security hole.
  * Handle http and proxy digest authentication.
  * Added ``bzrlib.strace.strace`` which will strace a single
  callable and return a StraceResult object which contains just
  the syscalls involved in running it.
  * New test method ``reduceLockdirTimeout`` to drop the default
  (ui-centric) default time down to one suitable for tests.
  * Add new ``vfs_transport_factory`` attribute on tests which
  provides the common vfs backing for both the readonly and
  readwrite transports. This allows the RemoteObject tests to
  back onto local disk or memory, and use the existing
  ``transport_server`` attribute all tests know about to be the
  smart server transport. This in turn allows tests to
  differentiate between 'transport to access the branch', and
  'transport which is a VFS' - which matters in Remote* tests.
  * The ``make_branch_and_tree`` method for tests will now create a
  lightweight checkout for the tree if the
  ``vfs_transport_factory`` is not a LocalURLServer.
  * Branch implementation tests have been audited to ensure that
  all urls passed to Branch APIs use proper urls, except when
  local-disk paths are intended. This is so that tests correctly
  access the test transport which is often not equivalent to
  local disk in Remote* tests. As part of this many tests were
  adjusted to remove dependencies on local disk access.
  * Mark bzrlib.tests and bzrlib.tests.TestUtil as providing
  assertFOO helper functions by adding a ``__unittest`` global
  attribute.
  * Refactored proxy and authentication handling to simplify the
  implementation of new auth schemes for both http and proxy.
- made necessary adapations in specfile
* Wed Apr 04 2007 kssingvo@suse.de
- upgrade to version 0.15:
  * Handle incompatible repositories as a user issue when fetching.
  * Don't give a recommendation to upgrade when branching or
  checking out a branch that contains an old-format working tree.
  * A warning is now displayed when opening working trees in older
  formats, to encourage people to upgrade to WorkingTreeFormat4.
  * HTTP redirections are now taken into account when a branch (or a
  bundle) is accessed for the first time. A message is issued at each
  redirection to inform the user. In the past, http redirections were
  silently followed for each request which significantly degraded the
  performances. The http redirections are not followed anymore by
  default, instead a RedirectRequested exception is raised. For bzrlib
  users needing to follow http redirections anyway,
  bzrlib.transport.do_catching_redirections provide an easy transition
  path.
  * Added ``ReadLock.temporary_write_lock()`` to allow upgrading an OS read
  lock to an OS write lock. Linux can do this without unlocking, Win32
  needs to unlock in between.
  * New parameter ``recommend_upgrade`` to BzrDir.open_workingtree
  to silence (when false) warnings about opening old formats.
  * Fix minor performance regression with bzr-0.15 on pre-dirstate
  trees. (We were reading the working inventory too many times).
  * Take smtp_server from user config into account.
  * Restore Unicode filename handling for versioned and unversioned files.
  * Don't fail during ``bzr commit`` if a file is marked removed, and
  the containing directory is auto-removed.
  * ``bzr status FILENAME`` failed on Windows because of an uncommon
  errno. (``ERROR_DIRECTORY == 267 != ENOTDIR``).
  * ``bzr checkout source`` should create a local branch in the same
  format as source.
  * ``bzr commit`` with a kind change was failing to update the
  last-changed-revision for directories.  The
  InventoryDirectory._unchanged only looked at the parent_id and name,
  ignoring the fact that the kind could have changed, too.
  * ``bzr mv dir/subdir other`` was incorrectly updating files inside
  the directory. So that there was a chance it would break commit,
  etc.
  * Correctly handles mutiple permanent http redirections.
  * New ``merge-directive`` command to generate machine- and human-readable
  merge requests.
  * New ``submit:`` revision specifier makes it easy to diff against the
  common ancestor with the submit location
  * Added support for Putty's SSH implementation.
  * Added ``bzr status --versioned`` to report only versioned files,
  not unknowns.
  * Merge now autodetects the correct line-ending style for its conflict
  markers.
  * Refactored SSH vendor registration into SSHVendorManager class.
  * New ``--numbered-dirs`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to use
  numbered dirs for TestCaseInTempDir. This is default behavior
  on Windows. Anyone can force named dirs on Windows
  with ``--no-numbered-dirs``.
  * Fix ``RevisionSpec_revid`` to handle the Unicode strings passed in
  from the command line.
  * Fix ``TreeTransform._iter_changes`` when both the source and
  destination are missing.
  * Fix commit of merges with symlinks in dirstate trees.
  * Switch the ``bzr init-repo`` default from --no-trees to --trees.
  * The default disk format has changed. Please run 'bzr upgrade' in your
  working trees to upgrade. This new default is compatible for network
  operations, but not for local operations. That is, if you have two
  versions of bzr installed locally, after upgrading you can only use the
  bzr 0.15 version. This new default does not enable tags or nested-trees
  as they are incompatible with bzr versions before 0.15 over the network.
  * For users of bzrlib: Two major changes have been made to the working tree
  api in bzrlib. The first is that many methods and attributes, including
  the inventory attribute, are no longer valid for use until one of
  lock_read/lock_write/lock_tree_write has been called, and become invalid
  again after unlock is called. This has been done to improve performance
  and correctness as part of the dirstate development.
  * For users of bzrlib: The attribute 'tree.inventory' should be considered
  readonly. Previously it was possible to directly alter this attribute, or
  its contents, and have the tree notice this. This has been made
  unsupported - it may work in some tree formats, but in the newer dirstate
  format such actions will have no effect and will be ignored, or even
  cause assertions. All operations possible can still be carried out by a
  combination of the tree API, and the bzrlib.transform API.
  * Support for OS Windows 98. Also .bzr.log on any windows system
  saved in My Documents folder.
  * ``bzr mv`` enhanced to support already moved files.
  In the past the mv command would have failed if the source file doesn't
  exist. In this situation ``bzr mv`` would now detect that the file has
  already moved and update the repository accordingly, if the target file
  does exist.
  * A new option ``--after`` has been added so that if two files already
  exist, you could notify Bazaar that you have moved a (versioned) file
  and replaced it with another. Thus in this case ``bzr move --after``
  will only update the Bazaar identifier.
  * ``ls`` now works on treeless branches and remote branches.
  * ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
  * ``bzr pull --overwrite`` will now correctly overwrite checkouts.
  * Files are now allowed to change kind (e.g. from file to symlink).
  Supported by ``commit``, ``revert`` and ``status``
  * ``inventory`` and ``unknowns`` hidden in favour of ``ls``
  * ``bzr help checkouts`` descibes what checkouts are and some possible
  uses of them.
  * A new ``-d`` option to push, pull and merge overrides the default
  directory.
  * Branch format 6: smaller, and potentially faster than format 5.  Supports
  "append_history_only" mode, where the log view and revnos do not change,
  except by being added to.  Stores policy settings in
  ".bzr/branch/branch.conf".
  * append_only branches:  Format 6 branches may be configured so that log
  view and revnos are always consistent.  Either create the branch using
  "bzr init --append-revisions-only" or edit the config file as descriped
  in docs/configuration.txt.
  * rebind: Format 6 branches retain the last-used bind location, so if you
  "bzr unbind", you can "bzr bind" to bind to the previously-selected
  bind location.
  * Builtin tags support, created and deleted by the ``tag`` command and
  stored in the branch.  Tags can be accessed with the revisionspec
  ``-rtag:``, and listed with ``bzr tags``.  Tags are not versioned
  at present. Tags require a network incompatible upgrade. To perform this
  upgrade, run ``bzr upgrade --dirstate-tags`` in your branch and
  repositories.
  * The bzr:// transport now has a well-known port number, 4155, which it will
  use by default.
  * Bazaar now looks for user-installed plugins before looking for site-wide
  plugins.
  * ``bzr resolve`` now detects and marks resolved text conflicts.
  * Internally revision ids and file ids are now passed around as utf-8
  bytestrings, rather than treating them as Unicode strings. This has
  performance benefits for Knits, since we no longer need to decode the
  revision id for each line of content, nor for each entry in the index.
  This will also help with the future dirstate format.
  * Reserved ids (any revision-id ending in a colon) are rejected by
  versionedfiles, repositories, branches, and working trees
  * Minor performance improvement by not creating a ProgressBar for
  every KnitIndex we create. (about 90ms for a bzr.dev tree)
  * New easier to use Branch hooks facility. There are five initial hooks,
  all documented in bzrlib.branch.BranchHooks.__init__ - 'set_rh',
  'post_push', 'post_pull', 'post_commit', 'post_uncommit'. These hooks
  fire after the matching operation on a branch has taken place, and were
  originally added for the branchrss plugin.
  * New method ``Branch.push()`` which should be used when pushing from a
  branch as it makes performance and policy decisions to match the UI
  level command ``push``.
  * Add a new method ``Tree.revision_tree`` which allows access to cached
  trees for arbitrary revisions. This allows the in development dirstate
  tree format to provide access to the callers to cached copies of
  inventory data which are cheaper to access than inventories from the
  repository.
  * New Branch.last_revision_info method, this is being done to allow
  optimization of requests for both the number of revisions and the last
  revision of a branch with smartservers and potentially future branch
  formats.
  * Allow 'import bzrlib.plugins.NAME' to work when the plugin NAME has not
  yet been loaded by load_plugins(). This allows plugins to depend on each
  other for code reuse without requiring users to perform file-renaming
  gymnastics.
  * New Repository method 'gather_stats' for statistic data collection.
  This is expected to grow to cover a number of related uses mainly
  related to bzr info.
  * Log formatters are now managed with a registry.
  ``log.register_formatter`` continues to work, but callers accessing
  the FORMATTERS dictionary directly will not.
  * Allow a start message to be passed to the ``edit_commit_message``
  function.  This will be placed in the message offered to the user
  for editing above the separator. It allows a template commit message
  to be used more easily.
  * ``GPGStrategy.sign()`` will now raise ``BzrBadParameterUnicode`` if
  you pass a Unicode string rather than an 8-bit string. Callers need
  to be updated to encode first.
  * Branch.push, pull, merge now return Result objects with information
  about what happened, rather than a scattering of various methods.  These
  are also passed to the post hooks.
  * File formats and architecture is in place for managing a forest of trees
  in bzr, and splitting up existing trees into smaller subtrees, and
  finally joining trees to make a larger tree. This is the first iteration
  of this support, and the user-facing aspects still require substantial
  work.  If you wish to experiment with it, use ``bzr upgrade
      --dirstate-with-subtree`` in your working trees and repositories.
  You can use the hidden commands ``split`` and ``join`` and to create
  and manipulate nested trees, but please consider using the nested-trees
  branch, which contains substantial UI improvements, instead.
  http://code.aaronbentley.com/bzr/bzrrepo/nested-trees/
  * ``bzr annotate`` now uses dotted revnos from the viewpoint of the
  branch, rather than the last changed revision of the file.
  * Lock operations no longer hang if they encounter a permission problem.
  * ``bzr push`` can resume a push that was canceled before it finished.
  Also, it can push even if the target directory exists if you supply
  the ``--use-existing-dir`` flag.
  * Fix http proxy authentication when user and an optional
  password appears in the ``*_proxy`` vars.
  * ``bzr log branch/file`` works for local treeless branches
  * Fix problem with UNC paths on Windows 98.
  * Searching location of CA bundle for PyCurl in env variable
  (CURL_CA_BUNDLE), and on win32 along the PATH.
  * ``bzr init`` works with unicode argument LOCATION.
  * Raise DependencyNotPresent if pycurl do not support https.
  * Invalid proxy env variables should not cause a traceback.
  * Ignore patterns normalised to use '/' path separator.
  * bzr rocks. It sure does! Fix case.
  * Fix bzrtools shelve command for removed lines beginning with "--"
  * New ``--first`` option to ``bzr selftest`` to run specified tests
  before the rest of the suite.
  * ``bzr help global-options`` describes the global options.
  * Skip documentation generation tests if the tools to do so are not
  available. Fixes running selftest for installled copies of bzr.
  * 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.
  * 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.
  * Aliases now support quotation marks, so they can contain whitespace
  * 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).
  * ``bzr commit`` does not prompt for a message until it is very likely to
  succeed.
  * ``bzr conflicts`` now takes --text to list pathnames of text conflicts
  * 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)
  * 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``.
  * 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.
  * ``bzr help hidden-commands`` lists all hidden commands.
  * ``bzr merge`` now has an option ``--pull`` to fall back to pull if
  local is fully merged into remote.
  * ``bzr help formats`` describes available directory formats.
  * 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%%.
  * Change Revision serialization to only write out millisecond
  resolution. Rather than expecting floating point serialization to
  preserve more resolution than we need.
  * Test suite ends cleanly on Windows.
  * 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).
  * Single-letter short options are no longer globally declared.
  * Before using detected user/terminal encoding bzr should check
  that Python has corresponding codec.
  * Formats for end-user selection are provided via a FormatRegistry
  * ``bzr missing --verbose`` was showing adds/removals in the wrong
  direction.
  * ``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.
  * bzr now supports Win32 UNC path (e.g. \\HOST\path).
  * Win32-specific: output of cat, bundle and diff commands don't mangle
  line-endings
  * Replace broken fnmatch based ignore pattern matching with custom pattern
  matcher.
  * 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).
  * 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.
  * Use urlutils to generate relative URLs, not osutils
  * ``bzr status`` in a readonly directory should work without giving
  lots of errors.
  * Mention the revisionspec topic for the revision option help.
  * Allow plugins import from zip archives.
* Wed Jan 24 2007 aj@suse.de
- Remove obsolete require on python-elementtree.
* Wed Jan 10 2007 cthiel@suse.de
- require python-xml
* Tue Jan 09 2007 cthiel@suse.de
- Upgrade to Version 0.13:
  o IMPROVEMENTS:
  * New command ``bzr remove-tree`` allows the removal of the working
  tree from a branch.
  * urllib uses shared keep-alive connections, so http
  operations are substantially faster.
  * ``bzr export`` allows an optional branch parameter, to export a bzr
  tree from some other url. For example:
  ``bzr export bzr.tar.gz http://bazaar-vcs.org/bzr/bzr.dev``
  * Added ``bzr help topics`` to the bzr help system. This gives a
  location for general information, outside of a specific command.
  This includes updates for ``bzr help revisionspec`` the first topic
  included.
  * WSGI-compatible HTTP smart server.  See ``doc/http_smart_server.txt``.
  * Knit files will now cache full texts only when the size of the
  deltas is as large as the size of the fulltext. (Or after 200
  deltas, whichever comes first). This has the most benefit on large
  files with small changes, such as the inventory for a large project.
  (eg For a project with 2500 files, and 7500 revisions, it changes
  the size of inventory.knit from 11MB to 5.4MB)
  o INTERNALS:
  * New -D option given before the command line turns on debugging output
  for particular areas.  -Derror shows tracebacks on all errors.
  * Clean up ``bzr selftest --benchmark bundle`` to correct an import,
  and remove benchmarks that take longer than 10min to run.
  * Use ``time.time()`` instead of ``time.clock()`` to decide on
  progress throttling. Because ``time.clock()`` is actually CPU time,
  so over a high-latency connection, too many updates get throttled.
  * ``MemoryTransport.list_dir()`` would strip the first character for
  files or directories in root directory.
  * New ``ChrootTransportDecorator``, accessible via the ``chroot+`` url
  prefix.  It disallows any access to locations above a set URL.
* Mon Oct 23 2006 kssingvo@suse.de
- Upgrade to Version 0.11:
  * Smart server transport test failures on windows fixed.
  * Test suite hangs on windows fixed.
  * Commit performance regression fixed.
  * Knit files now wait to create their contents until the first
  data is added.
  * When an entire subtree has been deleted, commit will now report
  that just the top of the subtree has been deleted, rather than
  reporting all the individual items.
  * Commit performs one less XML parse.
  * ``bzr checkout`` now operates on readonly branches as well as
  readwrite branches.
  * ``bzr bind`` no longer synchronises history with the master
  branch.
  * ``bzrlib.lazy_import.lazy_import`` function to create on-demand
  objects.
  * Support bzr:// and bzr+ssh:// urls to work with the new
  RPC-based transport which will be used with the upcoming
  high-performance smart server.
  * New command ``bzr version-info`` which can be used to get a
  summary of the current state of the tree.
  * 'bzr inventory [FILE...]' allows restricting the file list to a
  specific set of files.
  * Don't abort when annotating empty files
  * Add ``Stanza.to_unicode()`` which can be passed to another
  Stanza when nesting stanzas.
  * Transform._set_mode() needs to stat the right file.
  * Raise WeaveFormatError rather than StopIteration when trying to
  read an empty Weave file.
  * Don't access e.code for generic URLErrors, only HTTPErrors have
  .code.
  * Handle boundary="" lines properly to allow access through a
  Squid proxy.
  * revert now removes newly-added directories
  * ``bzr upgrade sftp://`` shouldn't fail to upgrade v6 branches
  if there isn't a working tree.
  * Give nicer error messages when a user supplies an invalid
    --revision parameter.
  * Handle when LANG is not recognized by python.
  * Don't use preexec_fn on win32, as it is not supported by
  subprocess.
  * Skip specific tests when the dependencies aren't met.
  * Fallback to Paramiko properly, if no ``ssh`` executable exists
  on the system.
  * ``Branch.bind(other_branch)`` no longer takes a write lock on
  the other branch, and will not push or pull between the two
  branches.
  * When creating a tarball or zipfile export, export unicode names
  as utf-8 paths.
  * When committing, only files that exist in working tree or basis
  tree may be specified
  * Fixes to run on Python 2.5
  * TestCaseInTempDir now creates a separate directory for HOME,
  rather than having HOME set to the same location as the working
  directory.
  * run_bzr_subprocess() can take an optional 'env_changes={}'
  parameter, which will update os.environ inside the spawned
  child.
  * Refactor SFTP vendors to allow easier re-use when ssh is used.
  * Transport.list_dir() and Transport.iter_files_recursive()
  should always return urlescaped paths.
  * New utility function symbol_versioning.deprecation_string.
  * New TestCase helper applyDeprecated.
  * Transport.append and Transport.put have been deprecated in
  favor of .append_bytes, .append_file, .put_bytes, and
  .put_file.
  * WorkingTree has a new api ``unversion`` which allow the
  unversioning of entries by their file id.
  * WorkingTree.pending_merges is deprecated.
  * WorkingTree has a new lock_tree_write method which locks the
  branch for read rather than write.
  * All WorkingTree methods which write to the tree, but not to the
  branch have been converted to use ``needs_tree_write_lock``
  rather than ``needs_write_lock``.
  * Special case importing the standard library 'copy' module.
  * WorkingTree has a new parent class MutableTree which represents
  the specialisations of Tree which are able to be altered.
  * New methods mkdir and put_file_bytes_non_atomic on MutableTree
  that mutate the tree and its contents.
  * Transport behaviour at the root of the URL is now defined and
  tested.
  * 'merge' now takes --uncommitted, to apply uncommitted changes
  from a tree.
  * 'bzr add --file-ids-from' can be used to specify another path
  to use for creating file ids, rather than generating all new
  ones.
  * ``bzr selftest --benchmark`` now allows a ``--cache-dir``
  parameter.
  * Inverse forms are provided for all boolean options.
  * Serialize out Inventories directly, rather than using
  ElementTree.
  * Help diffutils 2.8.4 get along with binary tests
  * Change LockDir so that if the lock directory doesn't exist when
  lock_write() is called, an attempt will be made to create it.
  * ``bzr uncommit`` preserves pending merges.
  * Active FTP transport now works as intended.
  * Really fix mutter() so that it won't ever raise a UnicodeError.
  * Change Command handle to allow Unicode command and options.
  * Handle TZ=UTC properly when reading/writing revisions.
  * Use GPG_TTY to allow gpg --cl to work with gpg-agent in a
  pipeline.
  * External diff does the right thing for binaries even in foreign
  languages.
  * Testament handles more cases when content is unicode.
  * The bzr selftest was failing on installed versions due to a bug
  in a new test helper.
  * ``bzrlib.cache_utf8`` contains ``encode()`` and ``decode()``
  functions which can be used to cache the conversion between
  utf8 and Unicode.
  * ``setup.py`` now searches the filesystem to find all packages
  which need to be installed.
