Doxygen Release 1.5.7.1
(release date 5-10-2008)
Changes
* The dot tool is no longer part of the doxygen package for
MacOSX. Please install GraphViz separately and set the dot path
to /usr/local/bin
New features
* Added option DOT_FONTSIZE which allows to set the size of
the fonts used in dot generated graphs.
Bug fixes
* id 554432: Re-added ALPHABETICAL_INDEX option.
* id 554379: Fixed internal error for GENERATE_INDEXLOG when
GENERATE_HTML was set to NO.
* id 554546: Included fix for handling relative includes in
the preprocessor.
* Included several VHDL fixes related to syntax highlighting,
finding class members, and mixing upper and lower case.
* Included patch to allow setting DEST_DIR environment variable
to determine where to install doxygen.
Doxygen Release 1.5.7
(release date 28-9-2008)
Changes
* The default CSS style sheet has been cleaned up and simplified,
thanks to the work done by Quinn Taylor.
New features
* Added new config options GENERATE_QHP which enables generating
.qch (Qt compiled help) file via the Qt's qthelpgenerator tool
(part of Qt 4.4+). This type of files can be read with Qt's
Assisant to browse the documentation in a similar way as is
possible with Microsoft's compiled HTML help (.chm). To further
customize the output and run the help generator from within
doxygen, the following options are available: QCH_FILE,
QHP_NAMESPACE, QHP_VIRTUAL_FOLDER, QHG_LOCATION. Thanks to
Sebastian Pipping for the patch.
* Add new option SYMBOL_CACHE_SIZE to allow a different trade
off between doxygen's memory usage and the amount of disk
accesses.
* id 532695: Added 3 new commands: \extends, \implements, and
\memberof that allow object oriented constructs to be documented
as such for languages that do not support it natively (e.g. C)
* Added better support for one line comments after VHDL types.
* Added new option LAYOUT_FILE which can be used to specify a
layout template file that tells doxygen in which order to
generate the output and which titles to use for headings and
how the navigation index will look; Read this for more info.
As a result the following options are now obsolete since they
can now only be controlled via the layout file: DETAILS_AT_TOP,
ALPHABETICAL_INDEX. The following options can also be set via
the layout file, but for convenience and backward compatibility
reasons they are still also part of the configuration file:
SHOW_INCLUDE_FILES, SHOW_USED_FILES, CLASS_GRAPH, COLLABORATION_GRAPH,
GROUP_GRAPHS, INCLUDE_GRAPH, INCLUDED_BY_GRAPH. Run doxygen
with the -l option to generate the default layout file.
* Included update for the Macedonian, Catalan, Brazilian, and
Serbian translation and also support for Serbian with Cyrilic
characters.

mowgli is a development framework for C (like GLib), which provides high
performance and highly flexible algorithms. It can be used as a suppliment
to GLib (to add additional functions (dictionaries, hashes), or replace
some of the slow GLib list manipulation functions), or stand alone. It
also provides a powerful hook system and convenient logging for your code,
as well as a high performance block allocator.
* If you created a product or component with the same name as one you previously deleted, it would fail with an error about the series table. (Bug 247936)
* Includes a fix for: http://www.bugzilla.org/security/2.20.6/
a recent enough version of gettext(3) e.g. Mac OS X or Linux. Dynamically
adjust the package list depending on the configure result.
Bump the package revisions because the package list was incorrect on
various platforms.
==============
0.3.0 (stable)
==============

Pkgsrc changes:
- Updated HOMEPAGE. Changes were collected from this page.
- Needs GNU make.
- LICENSE is GPLv2

* New xdelta3 merge command (issue 36)
* Windows stdin/stdout-related fixes (issue 34)
* Fix API-only infinite loop (issue 70)
* Various portability and build fixes (gcc4, DJGPP, MinGW, Big-endian,
Solaris, C++)
* New regression test (yeah!)
Xdelta-3.0t release notes:
* Improves compression by avoiding inefficient small copies (e.g.,
copies of length 4 at a distance >= 2^14 are skipped)
* Fixes an uninitialized array element in -S djw which did not cause
a crash, but caused less than ideal compression and test failures
* Fixes bugs in xdelta3 recode, tests added
* All tests pass under Valgrind
Xdelta-3.0s release notes:
* Faster! Several optimizations to avoid unnecessary arithmetic
* xdelta3 -1 has faster/poorer compression (xdelta3 -2 is the former
configuration)
* -S djw exposes secondary compression levels as -S djw1 .. -S djw9
* Removes "source file too large for external decompression" error check
* API support for transcoding other formats into VCDIFF

certain data, new tests for code-length overflow
* Adds new recode command for re-encoding a delta with different
secondary compression settings
* Fixes API-specific bugs related to non-blocking calls to
xd3_encode_input and xd3_decode_input
* Adds new examples/encoder_decoder_test.c program for the non-blocking API
Pkgsrc changes:
- Removed patches patch-aa, patch-ab and patch-ac (integrated upstream).
- Added explicit version requirements for glib and zlib.
- HOMEPAGE and MASTER_SITES had moved to a different location.
Changes since version 1.1.1:
============================
** Changes since version 1.1.3
* Add an implementation of xdp_generator_free() for users of the
libxdelta API. Previously there were no such users of the 1.x API,
but Elliot Lee <sopwith@redhat.com> has written a program for
providing delta operations on RPM files. See http://@@@
* The man page now documents return values.
** Changes since version 1.1.2
* Correct error message format for the case when gzread fails trying
to automatically decompress a corrupted GZIP file. The situation
itself--corrupt GZIP files--should be dealt with the -p (--pristine)
option, which disables GZIP file recognition. Reported by Ben
Escoto.
* Apply a patch from Klaus Dittrich for building on HPUX with the
native compiler. There is now a script called "contrib/build_hpux".
** Changes since version 1.1.1
* This code release is a distant fork of the 2.0 release. It will
hopefully be replaced.
* When 'patch' supplies its default TO file name recorded in the
delta, it still generates a unique file name to avoid overwriting an
existing copy. Use the 'xdelta info' command to see what file names
are contained in the delta.
* The code for writing patches to stdout was broken in the case where
gzip compression is used. Writing patches to stdout has therefore
been disabled. The problem is a limitation in the gzdopen/gzwrite
functions provided by zlib--you cannot determine how many bytes have
been written to the file descriptor without dup-ing the FD
beforehand and then lseek-ing afterwards, which does not work
correctly if the output file is not seekable.
* By default, Xdelta uses a hard-coded 16 byte block size. If you're
working with large files, try #undef XDELTA_HARDCODE_SIZE in
xdelta.h then use -s BLOCKSIZE (--blocksize=BLOCKSIZE), which should
be a power of 2.
* New test program in the 'test' subdirectory, which runs comparisons
against "diff --rcs -a" and also verifies the "xdelta patch"
command.
* Incorporate DJGPP patches from Richard Dawe <richdawe@bigfoot.com>.
You can find his versions directly at:
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/xdlt112b.zip
ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/xdlt112s.zip
* Updated xdelta(1) man page.
* Updated autoconf (2.50), automake (1.4-p4), libtool (1.4) scripts,
which includes updated config.guess and config.sub scripts.
* Correct some backward compatibility issues: strcmp() was not being
tested == 0 for formats older than 1.0.4.
* Update GLIB version requirement, now 1.2.8.
* We really need support for 64bit file sizes... perhaps the next
version?
Changes:
0.61 Fri November 7, 2008
* Moose::Meta::Attribute
- When passing a role to handles, it will be loaded if necessary
(perigrin)
* Moose::Meta::Class
- Method objects returned by get_method (and other methods)
Could end up being returned without an associated_metaclass
attribute. Removing get_method_map, which is provided by
Class::MOP::Class, fixed this. The Moose version did nothing
different from its parent except introduce a bug. (Dave Rolsky)
- added tests for this (jdv79)
* Various
- Added a $VERSION to all .pm files which didn't have one. Fixes
RT #40049, reported by Adam Kennedy. (Dave Rolsky)
* Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe4
* Moose::Cookbook::Basics::Recipe6
- These files had spaces on the first line of the SYNOPSIS, as
opposed to a totally empty line. According to RT #40432, this
confuses POD parsers. (Dave Rolsky)

changes. Bound to ! by default.
* Main view: use --topo-order also when rev-list arguments are given on
the command line.
* Log view: support for refreshing.
Bug fixes:
* Status view: use ls-files' --exclude-standard so user specific ignore
rules are effective. The option was added in git version 1.5.4.

* colordiff can now use /etc/colordiffrc
------------------
This release of Bazaar adds a new repository format, ``1.9``, with smaller
and more efficient index files. This format can be specified when
creating a new repository, or used to losslessly upgrade an existing
repository. bzr 1.9 also speeds most operations over the smart server
protocol, makes annotate faster, and uses less memory when making
checkouts or pulling large amounts of data.
BUG FIXES:
* Fix "invalid property value 'branch-nick' for None" regression with
branches bound to svn branches. (Martin Pool, #293440)
* Fix SSL/https on Python2.6. (Vincent Ladeuil, #293054)
* ``SFTPTransport.readv()`` had a bug when requests were out-of-order.
This only triggers some-of-the-time on Knit format repositories.
(John Arbash Meinel, #293746)
bzr 1.9rc1 2008-10-31
---------------------
NEW FEATURES:
* New Branch hook ``transform_fallback_location`` allows a function to
be called when looking up the stacked source. (Michael Hudson)
* New repository formats ``1.9`` and ``1.9-rich-root``. These have all
the functionality of ``1.6``, but use the new btree indexes.
These indexes are both smaller and faster for access to historical
information. (John Arbash Meinel)
IMPROVEMENTS:
* ``BTreeIndex`` code now is able to prefetch extra pages to help tune
the tradeoff between bandwidth and latency. Should be tuned
appropriately to not impact commands which need minimal information,
but provide a significant boost to ones that need more context. Only
has a direct impact on the ``--development2`` format which uses
btree's for the indexes. (John Arbash Meinel)
* ``bzr dump-btree`` is a hidden command introduced to allow dumping
the contents of a compressed btree file. (John Arbash Meinel)
* ``bzr pack`` now tells the index builders to optimize for size. For
btree index repositories, this can save 25% of the index size
(mostly in the text indexes). (John Arbash Meinel)
* ``bzr push`` to an existing branch or repository on a smart server
is faster, due to Bazaar making more use of the ``get_parent_map``
RPC when querying the remote branch's revision graph.
(Andrew Bennetts)
* default username for bzr+ssh and sftp can be configured in
authentication.conf. (Aaron Bentley)
* launchpad-login now provides a default username for bzr+ssh and sftp
URLs, allowing username-free URLs to work for everyone. (Aaron Bentley)
* ``lp:`` lookups no longer include usernames, making them shareable and
shorter. (Aaron Bentley)
* New ``PackRepository.autopack`` smart server RPC, which does
autopacking entirely on the server. This is much faster than
autopacking via plain file methods, which downloads a large amount
of pack data and then re-uploads the same pack data into a single
file. This fixes a major (although infrequent) cause of lengthy
delays when using a smart server. For example, pushing the 10th
revision to a repository with 9 packs now takes 44 RPCs rather than
179, and much less bandwidth too. This requires Bazaar 1.9 on both
the client and the server, otherwise the client will fallback to the
slower method. (Andrew Bennetts)
BUG FIXES:
* A failure to load a plugin due to an IncompatibleAPI exception is
now correctly reported. (Robert Collins, #279451)
* API versioning support now has a multiple-version checking api
``require_any_api``. (Robert Collins, #279447)
* ``bzr branch --stacked`` from a smart server to a standalone branch
works again. This fixes a regression in 1.7 and 1.8.
(Andrew Bennetts, #270397)
* ``bzr co`` uses less memory. It used to unpack the entire WT into
memory before writing it to disk. This was a little bit faster, but
consumed lots of memory. (John Arbash Meinel, #269456)
* ``bzr missing --quiet`` no longer prints messages about whether
there are missing revisions. The exit code indicates whether there
were or not. (Martin Pool, #284748)
* Fixes to the ``annotate`` code. The fast-path which re-used the
stored deltas was accidentally disabled all the time, instead of
only when a branch was stacked. Second, the code would accidentally
re-use a delta even if it wasn't against the left-parent, this
could only happen if ``bzr reconcile`` decided that the parent
ordering was incorrect in the file graph. (John Arbash Meinel)
* "Permission denied" errors that occur when pushing a new branch to a
smart server no longer cause tracebacks. (Andrew Bennetts, #278673)
* Some compatibility fixes for building the extensions with MSVC and
for python2.4. (John Arbash Meinel, #277484)
* The index logic is now able to reload the list of pack files if and
index ends up disappearing. We still don't reload if the pack data
itself goes missing after checking the index. This bug appears as a
transient failure (file not found) when another process is writing
to the repository. (John Arbash Meinel, #153786)
* ``bzr switch`` and ``bzr bind`` will now update the branch nickname if
it was previously set. All checkouts will now refer to the bound branch
for a nickname if one was not explicitly set.
(Marius Kruger, #230903)
DOCUMENTATION:
* Improved hook documentation. (Michael Ernst)
API CHANGES:
* commands.plugins_cmds is now a CommandRegistry, not a dict.
INTERNALS:
* New AuthenticationConfig.set_credentials method allows easy programmatic
configuration of authetication credentials.
bzr 1.8 2008-10-16
------------------
Bazaar 1.8 includes several fixes that improve working tree performance,
display of revision logs, and merges. The bzr testsuite now passes on OS
X and Python 2.6, and almost completely passes on Windows. The
smartserver code has gained several bug fixes and performance
improvements, and can now run server-side hooks within an http server.
BUG FIXES:
* Fix "Must end write group" error when another error occurs during
``bzr push``. (Andrew Bennetts, #230902)
PORTABILITY:
* Some Pyrex versions require the WIN32 macro defined to compile on
that platform. (Alexander Belchenko, Martin Pool, #277481)
bzr 1.8rc1 2008-10-07
---------------------
CHANGES:
* ``bzr log file`` has been changed. It now uses a different method
for determining which revisions to show as merging the changes to
the file. It now only shows revisions which merged the change
towards your mainline. This simplifies the output, makes it faster,
and reduces memory consumption. (John Arbash Meinel)
* ``bzr merge`` now defaults to having ``--reprocess`` set, whenever
``--show-base`` is not supplied. (John Arbash Meinel)
* ``bzr+http//`` will now optionally load plugins and write logs on the
server. (Marius Kruger)
* ``bzrlib._dirstate_helpers_c.pyx`` does not compile correctly with
Pyrex 0.9.4.1 (it generates C code which causes segfaults). We
explicitly blacklist that version of the compiler for that
extension. Packaged versions will include .c files created with
pyrex >= 0.9.6 so it doesn't effect releases, only users running
from the source tree. (John Arbash Meinel, #276868)
FEATURES
* bzr is now compatible with python-2.6. python-2.6 is not yet officially
supported (nor released, tests were conducted with the dev version of
python-2.6rc2), but all known problems have been fixed. Feedback
welcome.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #269535)
IMPROVEMENTS:
* ``bzr annotate`` will now include uncommitted changes from the local
working tree by default. Such uncommitted changes are given the
revision number they would get if a commit was done, followed with a
? to indicate that its not actually known. (Robert Collins, #3439)
* ``bzr branch`` now accepts a ``--standalone`` option, which creates a
standalone branch regardless of the presence of shared repositories.
(Daniel Watkins)
* ``bzr push`` is faster in the case there are no new revisions to
push. It is also faster if there are no tags in the local branch.
(Andrew Bennetts)
* File changes during a commit will update the tree stat cache.
(Robert Collins)
* Location aliases can now accept a trailing path. (Micheal Hudson)
* New hooks ``Lock.hooks`` when LockDirs are acquired and released.
(Robert Collins, MartinPool)
* Switching in heavyweight checkouts uses the master branch's context, not
the checkout's context. (Adrian Wilkins)
* ``status`` on large trees is now faster, due to optimisations in the
walkdirs code. Of particular note, the walkdirs code now performs
a temporary ``chdir()`` while reading a single directory; if your
platform has non thread-local current working directories (and is
not windows which has its own implementation), this may introduce a
race condition during concurrent uses of bzrlib. The bzrlib CLI
will not encounter this as it is single threaded for working tree
operations. (Robert Collins)
* The C extensions now build on python 2.4 (Robert Collins, #271939)
* The ``-Dhpss`` debug flag now reports the number of smart server
calls per medium to stderr. This is in addition to the existing
detailed logging to the .bzr.log trace file. (Andrew Bennetts)
BUG FIXES:
* Avoid random failures arising from misinterpreted ``errno`` values
in ``_readdir_pyx.read_dir``.
(Martin Pool, #279381)
* Branching from a shared repository on a smart server into a new
repository now preserves the repository format.
(Andrew Bennetts, #269214)
* ``bzr log`` now accepts a ``--change`` option.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #248427)
* ``bzr missing`` now accepts an ``--include-merges`` option.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #233817)
* Don't try to filter (internally) '.bzr' from the files to be deleted if
it's not there.
(Vincent Ladeuil, #272648)
* Fix '_in_buffer' AttributeError when using the -Dhpss debug flag.
(Andrew Bennetts)
* Fix TooManyConcurrentRequests errors caused by a connection failure
when doing ``bzr pull`` or ``bzr merge`` from a ``bzr+ssh`` URL.
(Andrew Bennetts, #246233)
* Fixed ``bzr st -r branch:PATH_TO_BRANCH`` where the other branch
is in a different repository than the current one.
(Lukáš Lalinský, #144421)
* Make the first line of the manpage preamble a comment again.
(David Futcher, #242106)
* Remove use of optional parameter in GSSAPI FTP support, since
it breaks newer versions of Python-Kerberos. (Jelmer Vernooij)
* The autopacking logic will now always create a single new pack from
all of the content which it deems is worth moving. This avoids the
'repack a single pack' bug and should result in better packing
overall. (John Arbash Meinel, #242510, #172644)
* Trivial documentation fix.
(John Arbash Meinel, #270471)
DOCUMENTATION:
* Explain revision/range identifiers. (Daniel Clemente)
API CHANGES:
* ``CommitBuilder.record_entry_contents`` returns one more element in
its result tuple - an optional file system hash for the hash cache
to use. (Robert Collins)
* ``dirstate.DirState.update_entry`` will now only calculate the sha1
of a file if it is likely to be needed in determining the output
of iter_changes. (Robert Collins)
* The PackRepository, RepositoryPackCollection, NewPack classes have a
slightly changed interface to support different index types; as a
result other users of these classes need to supply the index types
they want. (Robert Collins)
TESTING:
* ``bzrlib.tests.repository_implementations`` has been renamed to
``bzrlib.tests.per_repository`` so that we have a common structure
(and it is shorter). (John Arbash Meinel, #239343)
* ``LocalTransport.abspath()`` now returns a drive letter if the
transport has one, fixing numerous tests on Windows.
(Mark Hammond)
* PreviewTree is now tested via intertree_implementations.
(Aaron Bentley)
* The full test suite is passing again on OSX.
(Guillermo Gonzalez, Vincent Ladeuil)
* The full test suite passes when run with ``-Eallow_debug``.
(Andrew Bennetts)
INTERNALS:
* A new hook, ``Branch.open``, has been added, which is called when
branch objects are opened. (Robert Collins)
* ``bzrlib.osutils._walkdirs_utf8`` has been refactored into common
tree walking, and modular directory listing code to aid future
performance optimisations and refactoring. (Robert Collins)
* ``bzrlib.trace.debug_memory`` can be used to get a quick memory dump
in the middle of processing. It only reports memory if
``/proc/PID/status`` is available. (John Arbash Meinel)
* New method ``RevisionSpec.as_tree`` for representing the revision
specifier as a revision tree object. (Lukáš Lalinský)
* New race-free method on MutableTree ``get_file_with_stat`` for use
when generating stat cache results. (Robert Collins)
* New win32utils.get_local_appdata_location() provides access to a local
directory for storing data. (Mark Hammond)
* To be compatible with python-2.6 a few new rules should be
observed. 'message' attribute can't be used anymore in exception
classes, 'sha' and 'md5' modules have been deprecated (use
osutils.[md5|sha]), object__init__ and object.__new__ don't accept
parameters anymore.
(Vincent Ladeuil)
bzr 1.7.1 2008-10-01
--------------------
No changes from 1.7.1rc1.
bzr 1.7.1rc1 2008-09-24
-----------------------
This release just includes an update to how the merge algorithm handles
file paths when we encounter complex history.
FEATURES:
* If we encounter a criss-cross in history, use information from
direct Least Common Ancestors to resolve inventory shape (locations
of files, adds, deletes, etc). This is similar in concept to using
``--lca`` for merging file texts, only applied to paths.
(John Arbash Meinel)
bzr 1.7 2008-09-23
------------------
This release includes many bug fixes and a few performance and feature
improvements. ``bzr rm`` will now scan for missing files and remove them,
like how ``bzr add`` scans for unknown files and adds them. A bit more
polish has been applied to the stacking code. The b-tree indexing code has
been brought in, with an eye on using it in a future repository format.
There are only minor installer changes since bzr-1.7rc2.
FEATURES
* Some small updates to the win32 installer. Include localization
files found in plugins, and include the builtin distutils as part of
packaging qbzr. (Mark Hammond)
bzr 1.7rc2 2008-09-17
---------------------
A few bug fixes from 1.7rc1. The biggest change is a new
``RemoteBranch.get_stacked_on_url`` rpc. This allows clients that are
trying to access a Stacked branch over the smart protocol, to properly
connect to the stacked-on location.
BUG FIXES:
* Branching from a shared repository on a smart server into a new
repository now preserves the repository format.
(Andrew Bennetts, #269214)
* Branching from a stacked branch via ``bzr+ssh`` can properly connect
to the stacked-on branch. (Martin Pool, #261315)
* ``bzr init`` no longer re-opens the BzrDir multiple times.
(Vincent Ladeuil)
* Fix '_in_buffer' AttributeError when using the -Dhpss debug flag.
(Andrew Bennetts)
bzr 1.7rc1 2008-09-09
---------------------
This release candidate for bzr 1.7 has several bug fixes and a few
performance and feature improvements. ``bzr rm`` will now scan for
missing files and remove them, like how ``bzr add`` scans for unknown
files and adds them. A bit more polish has been applied to the stacking
code. The b-tree indexing code has been brought in, with an eye on using
it in a future repository format.
CHANGES:
* ``bzr export`` can now export a subdirectory of a project.
(Robert Collins)
* ``bzr remove-tree`` will now refuse to remove a tree with uncommitted
changes, unless the ``--force`` option is specified.
(Lukáš Lalinský, #74101)
* ``bzr rm`` will now scan for files that are missing and remove just
them automatically, much as ``bzr add`` scans for new files that
are not ignored and adds them automatically. (Robert Collins)
FEATURES
* Support for GSSAPI authentication when using FTP as documented in
RFC2228. (Jelmer Vernooij, #49623)
* Add support for IPv6 in the smart server. (Jelmer Vernooij, #165014)
IMPROVEMENTS:
* A url like ``log+file:///tmp`` will log all access to that Transport
to ``.bzr.log``, which may help in debugging or profiling.
(Martin Pool)
* ``bzr branch`` and ``bzr push`` use the default stacking policy if the
branch format supports it. (Aaron Bentley)
* ``bzr init`` and ``bzr init-repo`` will now print out the same as
``bzr info`` if it completed successfully.
(Marius Kruger)
* ``bzr uncommit`` logs the old tip revision id, and displays how to
restore the branch to that tip using ``bzr pull``. This allows you
to recover if you realize you uncommitted the wrong thing.
(John Arbash Meinel)
* Fix problems in accessing stacked repositories over ``bzr://``.
(Martin Pool, #261315)
* ``SFTPTransport.readv()`` was accidentally using ``list += string``,
which 'works', but adds each character separately to the list,
rather than using ``list.append(string)``. Fixing this makes the
SFTP transport a little bit faster (~20%) and use a bit less memory.
(John Arbash Meinel)
* When reading index files, if we happen to read the whole file in a
single request treat it as a ``_buffer_all`` request. This happens
most often on small indexes over remote transports, where we default
to reading 64kB. It saves a round trip for each small index during
fetch operations. Also, if we have read more than 50% of an index
file, trigger a ``_buffer_all`` on the next request. This works
around some inefficiencies because reads don't fall neatly on page
boundaries, so we would ignore those bytes, but request them again
later. This could trigger a total read size of more than the whole
file. (John Arbash Meinel)
BUG FIXES:
* ``bzr rm`` is now aliased to ``bzr del`` for the convenience of svn
users. (Robert Collins, #205416)
* Catch the infamous "select/poll returned error" which occurs when
pycurl try to send a body request to an HTTP/1.0 server which has
already refused to handle the request. (Vincent Ladeuil, #225020)
* Fix ``ObjectNotLocked`` errors when using various commands
(including ``bzr cat`` and ``bzr annotate``) in combination with a
smart server URL. (Andrew Bennetts, #237067)
* ``FTPTransport.stat()`` would return ``0000`` as the permission bits
for the containing ``.bzr/`` directory (it does not implement
permissions). This would cause us to set all subdirectories to
``0700`` and files to ``0600`` rather than leaving them unmodified.
Now we ignore ``0000`` as the permissions and assume they are
invalid. (John Arbash Meinel, #259855)
* Merging from a previously joined branch will no longer cause
a traceback. (Jelmer Vernooij, #203376)
* Pack operations on windows network shares will work even with large
files. (Robert Collins, #255656)
* Running ``bzr st PATH_TO_TREE`` will no longer suppress merge
status. Status is also about 7% faster on mozilla sized trees
when the path to the root of the tree has been given. Users of
the internal ``show_tree_status`` function should be aware that
the show_pending flag is now authoritative for showing pending
merges, as it was originally. (Robert Collins, #225204)
* Set valid default _param_name for Option so that ListOption can embed
'-' in names. (Vincent Ladeuil, #263249)
* Show proper error rather than traceback when an unknown revision
id is specified to ``bzr cat-revision``. (Jelmer Vernooij, #175569)
* Trailing text in the dirstate file could cause the C dirstate parser
to try to allocate an invalid amount of memory. We now properly
check and test for parsing a dirstate with invalid trailing data.
(John Arbash Meinel, #186014)
* Unexpected error responses from a smart server no longer cause the
client to traceback. (Andrew Bennetts, #263527)
* Use a Windows api function to get a Unicode host name, rather than
assuming the host name is ascii.
(Mark Hammond, John Arbash Meinel, #256550)
* ``WorkingTree4`` trees will now correctly report missing-and-new
paths in the output of ``iter_changes``. (Robert Collins)
DOCUMENTATION:
* Updated developer documentation. (Martin Pool)
API CHANGES:
* Exporters now take 4 parameters. (Robert Collins)
* ``Tree.iter_changes`` will now return False for the content change
field when a file is missing in the basis tree and not present in
the target tree. Previously it returned True unconditionally.
(Robert Collins)
* The deprecated ``Branch.abspath`` and unimplemented
``Branch.rename_one`` and ``Branch.move`` were removed. (Jelmer Vernooij)
* BzrDir.clone_on_transport implementations must now accept a stacked_on
parameter. (Aaron Bentley)
* BzrDir.cloning_metadir implementations must now take a require_stacking
parameter. (Aaron Bentley)
TESTING:
* ``addCleanup`` now takes ``*arguments`` and ``**keyword_arguments``
which are then passed to the cleanup callable as it is run. In
addition, addCleanup no longer requires that the callables passed to
it be unique. (Jonathan Lange)
* Fix some tests that fail on Windows because files are deleted while
still in use.
(Mark Hammond)
* ``selftest``'s ``--starting-with`` option can now use predefined
prefixes so that one can say ``bzr selftest -s bp.loom`` instead of
``bzr selftest -s bzrlib.plugins.loom``. (Vincent Ladeuil)
* ``selftest``'s ``--starting-with`` option now accepts multiple values.
(Vincent Ladeuil)
INTERNALS:
* A new plugin interface, ``bzrlib.log.log_adapters``, has been added.
This allows dynamic log output filtering by plugins.
(Robert Collins)
* ``bzrlib.btree_index`` is now available, providing a b-tree index
layer. The design is memory conservative (limited memory cache),
faster to seek (approx 100 nodes per page, gives 100-way fan out),
and stores compressed pages allowing more keys per page.
(Robert Collins, John Arbash Meinel)
* ``bzrlib.diff.DiffTree.show_diff`` now skips changes where the kind
is unknown in both source and target.
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley)
* ``GraphIndexBuilder.add_node`` and ``BTreeBuilder`` have been
streamlined a bit. This should make creating large indexes faster.
(In benchmarking, it now takes less time to create a BTree index than
it takes to read the GraphIndex one.) (John Arbash Meinel)
* Mail clients for `bzr send` are now listed in a registry. This
allows plugins to add new clients by registering them with
``bzrlib.mail_client.mail_client_registry``. All of the built-in
clients now use this mechanism. (Neil Martinsen-Burrell)
Pkgsrc changes:
* Drop dependencies on Perl 5 modules provided by the minimum
required perl5 package (5.10)
Upstream changes:
[Changes for 0.89 - 2008-11-03]
* Distribution fixes.
* Do not use base Exporter.
* Detection of 'asa' and 'only::matching'.
[Changes for 0.88 - 2008-10-28]
* Add special case for File::HomeDir.
[Changes for 0.87 - 2008-10-28]
* Add special case for PPI.
[Changes for 0.86 - 2008-10-23]
* Fix the 'use prefork "Foo"' static detection.
* Fix the detection of any of the module-loader modules such as
prefork, autouse, etc. if invoked as 'use prefork"Foo"' (note
the lack of a space).
* Slightly refactor the loader-module scanning. (see above)
* Support for "use maybe 'foo';"
* Use (arch|priv)libexp instead of (arch|priv)lib
in scandeps.pl (Mark Stosberg)
* Update to Module::Install 0.77
[Changes for 0.85 - 2008-08-01]
* Add special case for Net::Server.
Changes in version 2.4 (2008-11-02):
* %language is an experimental feature.
We first introduced this feature in test release 2.3b as a cleaner
alternative to %skeleton. Since then, we have discussed the possibility of
modifying its effect on Bison's output file names. Thus, in this release,
we consider %language to be an experimental feature that will likely evolve
in future releases.
* Forward compatibility with GNU M4 has been improved.
* Several bugs in the C++ skeleton and the experimental Java skeleton have been
fixed.
Changes in version 2.3b (2008-05-27):
* The quotes around NAME that used to be required in the following directive
are now deprecated:
%define NAME "VALUE"
* The directive `%pure-parser' is now deprecated in favor of:
%define api.pure
which has the same effect except that Bison is more careful to warn about
unreasonable usage in the latter case.
* Push Parsing
Bison can now generate an LALR(1) parser in C with a push interface. That
is, instead of invoking `yyparse', which pulls tokens from `yylex', you can
push one token at a time to the parser using `yypush_parse', which will
return to the caller after processing each token. By default, the push
interface is disabled. Either of the following directives will enable it:
%define api.push_pull "push" // Just push; does not require yylex.
%define api.push_pull "both" // Push and pull; requires yylex.
See the new section `A Push Parser' in the Bison manual for details.
The current push parsing interface is experimental and may evolve. More user
feedback will help to stabilize it.
* The -g and --graph options now output graphs in Graphviz DOT format,
not VCG format. Like --graph, -g now also takes an optional FILE argument
and thus cannot be bundled with other short options.
* Java
Bison can now generate an LALR(1) parser in Java. The skeleton is
`data/lalr1.java'. Consider using the new %language directive instead of
%skeleton to select it.
See the new section `Java Parsers' in the Bison manual for details.
The current Java interface is experimental and may evolve. More user
feedback will help to stabilize it.
* %language
This new directive specifies the programming language of the generated
parser, which can be C (the default), C++, or Java. Besides the skeleton
that Bison uses, the directive affects the names of the generated files if
the grammar file's name ends in ".y".
* XML Automaton Report
Bison can now generate an XML report of the LALR(1) automaton using the new
`--xml' option. The current XML schema is experimental and may evolve. More
user feedback will help to stabilize it.
* The grammar file may now specify the name of the parser header file using
%defines. For example:
%defines "parser.h"
* When reporting useless rules, useless nonterminals, and unused terminals,
Bison now employs the terms "useless in grammar" instead of "useless",
"useless in parser" instead of "never reduced", and "unused in grammar"
instead of "unused".
* Unreachable State Removal
Previously, Bison sometimes generated parser tables containing unreachable
states. A state can become unreachable during conflict resolution if Bison
disables a shift action leading to it from a predecessor state. Bison now:
1. Removes unreachable states.
2. Does not report any conflicts that appeared in unreachable states.
WARNING: As a result, you may need to update %expect and %expect-rr
directives in existing grammar files.
3. For any rule used only in such states, Bison now reports the rule as
"useless in parser due to conflicts".
This feature can be disabled with the following directive:
%define lr.keep_unreachable_states
See the %define entry in the `Bison Declaration Summary' in the Bison manual
for further discussion.
* Lookahead Set Correction in the `.output' Report
When instructed to generate a `.output' file including lookahead sets
(using `--report=lookahead', for example), Bison now prints each reduction's
lookahead set only next to the associated state's one item that (1) is
associated with the same rule as the reduction and (2) has its dot at the end
of its RHS. Previously, Bison also erroneously printed the lookahead set
next to all of the state's other items associated with the same rule. This
bug affected only the `.output' file and not the generated parser source
code.
* --report-file=FILE is a new option to override the default `.output' file
name.
* The `=' that used to be required in the following directives is now
deprecated:
%file-prefix "parser"
%name-prefix "c_"
%output "parser.c"
* An Alternative to `%{...%}' -- `%code QUALIFIER {CODE}'
Bison 2.3a provided a new set of directives as a more flexible alternative to
the traditional Yacc prologue blocks. Those have now been consolidated into
a single %code directive with an optional qualifier field, which identifies
the purpose of the code and thus the location(s) where Bison should generate
it:
1. `%code {CODE}' replaces `%after-header {CODE}'
2. `%code requires {CODE}' replaces `%start-header {CODE}'
3. `%code provides {CODE}' replaces `%end-header {CODE}'
4. `%code top {CODE}' replaces `%before-header {CODE}'
See the %code entries in section `Bison Declaration Summary' in the Bison
manual for a summary of the new functionality. See the new section `Prologue
Alternatives' for a detailed discussion including the advantages of %code
over the traditional Yacc prologues.
The prologue alternatives are experimental. More user feedback will help to
determine whether they should become permanent features.
* Revised warning: unset or unused mid-rule values
Since Bison 2.2, Bison has warned about mid-rule values that are set but not
used within any of the actions of the parent rule. For example, Bison warns
about unused $2 in:
exp: '1' { $$ = 1; } '+' exp { $$ = $1 + $4; };
Now, Bison also warns about mid-rule values that are used but not set. For
example, Bison warns about unset $$ in the mid-rule action in:
exp: '1' { $1 = 1; } '+' exp { $$ = $2 + $4; };
However, Bison now disables both of these warnings by default since they
sometimes prove to be false alarms in existing grammars employing the Yacc
constructs $0 or $-N (where N is some positive integer).
To enable these warnings, specify the option `--warnings=midrule-values' or
`-W', which is a synonym for `--warnings=all'.
* Default %destructor or %printer with `<*>' or `<>'
Bison now recognizes two separate kinds of default %destructor's and
%printer's:
1. Place `<*>' in a %destructor/%printer symbol list to define a default
%destructor/%printer for all grammar symbols for which you have formally
declared semantic type tags.
2. Place `<>' in a %destructor/%printer symbol list to define a default
%destructor/%printer for all grammar symbols without declared semantic
type tags.
Bison no longer supports the `%symbol-default' notation from Bison 2.3a.
`<*>' and `<>' combined achieve the same effect with one exception: Bison no
longer applies any %destructor to a mid-rule value if that mid-rule value is
not actually ever referenced using either $$ or $n in a semantic action.
The default %destructor's and %printer's are experimental. More user
feedback will help to determine whether they should become permanent
features.
See the section `Freeing Discarded Symbols' in the Bison manual for further
details.
* %left, %right, and %nonassoc can now declare token numbers. This is required
by POSIX. However, see the end of section `Operator Precedence' in the Bison
manual for a caveat concerning the treatment of literal strings.
* The nonfunctional --no-parser, -n, and %no-parser options have been
completely removed from Bison.
Changes in version 2.3a, 2006-09-13:
* Instead of %union, you can define and use your own union type
YYSTYPE if your grammar contains at least one <type> tag.
Your YYSTYPE need not be a macro; it can be a typedef.
This change is for compatibility with other Yacc implementations,
and is required by POSIX.
* Locations columns and lines start at 1.
In accordance with the GNU Coding Standards and Emacs.
* You may now declare per-type and default %destructor's and %printer's:
For example:
%union { char *string; }
%token <string> STRING1
%token <string> STRING2
%type <string> string1
%type <string> string2
%union { char character; }
%token <character> CHR
%type <character> chr
%destructor { free ($$); } %symbol-default
%destructor { free ($$); printf ("%d", @$.first_line); } STRING1 string1
%destructor { } <character>
guarantees that, when the parser discards any user-defined symbol that has a
semantic type tag other than `<character>', it passes its semantic value to
`free'. However, when the parser discards a `STRING1' or a `string1', it
also prints its line number to `stdout'. It performs only the second
`%destructor' in this case, so it invokes `free' only once.
[Although we failed to mention this here in the 2.3a release, the default
%destructor's and %printer's were experimental, and they were rewritten in
future versions.]
* Except for LALR(1) parsers in C with POSIX Yacc emulation enabled (with `-y',
`--yacc', or `%yacc'), Bison no longer generates #define statements for
associating token numbers with token names. Removing the #define statements
helps to sanitize the global namespace during preprocessing, but POSIX Yacc
requires them. Bison still generates an enum for token names in all cases.
* Handling of traditional Yacc prologue blocks is now more consistent but
potentially incompatible with previous releases of Bison.
As before, you declare prologue blocks in your grammar file with the
`%{ ... %}' syntax. To generate the pre-prologue, Bison concatenates all
prologue blocks that you've declared before the first %union. To generate
the post-prologue, Bison concatenates all prologue blocks that you've
declared after the first %union.
Previous releases of Bison inserted the pre-prologue into both the header
file and the code file in all cases except for LALR(1) parsers in C. In the
latter case, Bison inserted it only into the code file. For parsers in C++,
the point of insertion was before any token definitions (which associate
token numbers with names). For parsers in C, the point of insertion was
after the token definitions.
Now, Bison never inserts the pre-prologue into the header file. In the code
file, it always inserts it before the token definitions.
* Bison now provides a more flexible alternative to the traditional Yacc
prologue blocks: %before-header, %start-header, %end-header, and
%after-header.
For example, the following declaration order in the grammar file reflects the
order in which Bison will output these code blocks. However, you are free to
declare these code blocks in your grammar file in whatever order is most
convenient for you:
%before-header {
/* Bison treats this block like a pre-prologue block: it inserts it into
* the code file before the contents of the header file. It does *not*
* insert it into the header file. This is a good place to put
* #include's that you want at the top of your code file. A common
* example is `#include "system.h"'. */
}
%start-header {
/* Bison inserts this block into both the header file and the code file.
* In both files, the point of insertion is before any Bison-generated
* token, semantic type, location type, and class definitions. This is a
* good place to define %union dependencies, for example. */
}
%union {
/* Unlike the traditional Yacc prologue blocks, the output order for the
* new %*-header blocks is not affected by their declaration position
* relative to any %union in the grammar file. */
}
%end-header {
/* Bison inserts this block into both the header file and the code file.
* In both files, the point of insertion is after the Bison-generated
* definitions. This is a good place to declare or define public
* functions or data structures that depend on the Bison-generated
* definitions. */
}
%after-header {
/* Bison treats this block like a post-prologue block: it inserts it into
* the code file after the contents of the header file. It does *not*
* insert it into the header file. This is a good place to declare or
* define internal functions or data structures that depend on the
* Bison-generated definitions. */
}
If you have multiple occurrences of any one of the above declarations, Bison
will concatenate the contents in declaration order.
[Although we failed to mention this here in the 2.3a release, the prologue
alternatives were experimental, and they were rewritten in future versions.]
* The option `--report=look-ahead' has been changed to `--report=lookahead'.
The old spelling still works, but is not documented and may be removed
in a future release.

o Canonicalize HOMEPAGE
Upstream changes:
1.26 Oct 25, 2008
- No code changes, just bumped the Devel::StackTrace dependency to
1.20.
The changes in 1.25 exposed a bug in Devel::StackTrace which has now
been fixed. This caused HTML::Mason test failures, among other
things. Reported by Andreas Koenig.
1.25 Oct 21, 2008
- The Exception::Class::Base constructor no longer looks at the
associated Devel::StackTrace object's frames. Avoiding looking at
the frames should make constructing exception objects much
faster. Instead the information based on the stack trace frames -
package(), file(), and line() - is only retrieved when it is
requested. Patch by Ruslan Zakirov. RT #40221.
(I hope the maintainer won't mind.)

* Version 1.11 (released 2008-10-28)
** libidn: New WARN_CFLAGS configure variable.
It is used internally to add -Werror and other warnings flags, to
catch coding mistakes before releases.
** Win32: Perl is no longer required to build Libidn in Visual Studio.
** Win32: Functions in idna.h are also exported.
Reported by Adam Strzelecki <adam.strzelecki@java.pl>.
** doc: Included cyclomatic code complexity charts of the library code.
See doc/cyclo/.
** tests: Add more self-tests to get more self-test code coverage.
** tests: New 'make coverage' command to generate code coverage reports.
The output is created in doc/coverage/. Requires the LCOV tools. See
http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/coverage/ for a pre-generated copy.
** Clarify copyright and license for gdoc, man pages, and C# port.
** Update gnulib files and translations.
** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.
New features and improvements:
* library
o new flavor of the ncurses library provides rudimentary
support for POSIX threads. Several functions are reentrant,
but most require either a window-level or screen-level
mutex.
(This is API-compatible, but not ABI-compatible with
the normal library).
o add NCURSES_OPAQUE symbol to curses.h, will use to make
structs opaque in selected configurations.
o add NCURSES_EXT_FUNCS and NCURSES_EXT_COLORS symbols
to curses.h to make it simpler to tell if the extended
functions and/or colors are declared.
o add wresize to C++ binding
o eliminate fixed-buffer vsprintf calls in C++ binding.
o add several functions to C++ binding which wrap C
functions that pass a WINDOW* parameter.
o adapt mouse-handling code from menu library in form-library
o improve tracing for form library, showing created forms, fields, etc.
o make $NCURSES_NO_PADDING feature work for termcap interface .
o add check to trace-file open, if the given name is a
directory, add ".log" to the name and try again.
o several new manpages: curs_legacy.3x, curs_memleaks.3x,
curs_opaque.3x and curs_threads.3x
* programs:
o modified three test-programs to demonstrate the threading
support in this version: ditto, rain, worm.
o several new test-programs: demo_panels, dots_mvcur,
inch_wide, inchs, key_name, key_names, savescreen,
savescreen.sh test_arrays, test_get_wstr, test_getstr,
test_instr, test_inwstr and test_opaque.
o add adacurses-config to the Ada95 install.
o modify tic -f option to format spaces as \s to prevent
them from being lost when that is read back in unformatted
strings.
o The tack program is now distributed separately from
ncurses.
* terminal database
o added entries:
+ Eterm-256color, Eterm-88color and rxvt-88color
+ aterm
+ konsole-256color
+ mrxvt
+ screen.mlterm
+ screen.rxvt
+ teraterm4.59 is now the primary primary teraterm
entry, renamed original to teraterm2.3
+ 9term terminal
+ Newbury Data entries
o updated/improved entries:
+ gnome to version 2.22.3
+ h19, z100
+ konsole to version 1.6.6
+ mlterm, mlterm+pcfkeys
+ xterm, and building-blocks for function-keys to
xterm patch #230.
Major bug fixes:
* add logic to tic for cancelling strings in user-defined
capabilities (this is needed for current konsole terminfo
entry).
* modify mk-1st.awk so the generated makefile rules for linking
or installing shared libraries do not first remove the library,
in case it is in use, e.g., libncurses.so by /bin/sh.
* correct check for notimeout in wgetch.
* fix a sign-extension bug in infocmp's repair_acsc function.
* change winnstr to stop at the end of the line.
* make Ada95 demo_panels example work.
* fix for adding a non-spacing character at the beginning of a line.
* fill in extended-color pair to make colors work for
wide-characters using extended-colors.
* improve refresh of window on top of multi-column characters,
taking into account split characters on left/right window
boundaries.
* modify win_wchnstr to ensure that only a base cell is returned
for each multi-column character.
* improve waddch and winsch handling of EILSEQ from mbrtowc by
using unctrl to display illegal bytes rather than trying to
append further bytes to make up a valid sequence.
* restore curs_set state after endwin/refresh
* modify keyname to use "^X" form only if meta has been called,
or if keyname is called without initializing curses, e.g., via
initscr or newterm.
* modify unctrl to check codes in 128-255 range versus isprint.
If they are not printable, and locale was set, use a "M-" or
"~" sequence.
* improve resizeterm by moving ripped-off lines, and repainting
the soft-keys.
* modify form library to accept control characters such as
newline in set_field_buffer, which is compatible with Solaris.
* use NCURSES_MOUSE_MASK in definition of BUTTON_RELEASE, etc.,
to make those work properly with the --enable-ext-mouse
configuration
* correct some functions in Ada95 binding which were using
return value from C where none was returned.
* reviewed/fixed issues reported by Coverity and Klocwork tools.
Portability:
* configure script:
o new options:
--disable-big-strings
control whether static string tables are generated
as single large strings (to improve startup
performance), or as array of individual strings.
--disable-relink
control whether shared libraries are relinked
(during install) when rpath is enabled.
--disable-tic-depends
make explicit whether tic library depends on
ncurses/ncursesw library.
--enable-mixed-case
override the configure script's check if the
filesystem supports mixed-case filenames. This
allows one to control how the terminal database
maps to the filesystem. For filesystems that do
not support mixed-case, the library uses generate
2-character (hexadecimal) codes for the lower-level
of the filesystem terminfo database
--enable-reentrant
builds a different flavor of the ncurses library
(ncursest) which improves reentrant use of the
library by reducing global and static variables
(see the "--with-pthread" option for the threaded
support).
--enable-weak-symbols
use weak-symbols for linking to the POSIX thread
library, and use the same soname for the ncurses
shared library as the normal library (caveat: the
ABI is for the threaded library, which makes global
data accessed via functions).
--with-pthread
build with the POSIX thread library (tested with
AIX, GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, HPUX, IRIX64,
Solaris, Tru64).
--with-ticlib
build/install the tic-support functions in a separate
library
o improved options:
--enable-ext-colors
requires the wide-character configuration.
--with-chtype
ignore option value "unsigned" is always added to
the type in curses.h; do the same for --with-mmask-t.
--with-dmalloc
build-fix for redefinition of strndup.
--with-hashed-db
+ accepts a parameter which is the install-prefix
of a given Berkeley Database.
+ the $LIBS environment variable overrides the
search for the db library.
--without-hashed-db
assumed when "--disable-database" is used.
* other configure/build issues:
o build-fixes for LynxOS
o modify shared-library rules to allow FreeBSD 3.x to use rpath.
o build-fix for FreeBSD "contemporary" TTY interface.
o build-fixes for AIX with libtool.
o build-fixes for Darwin and libtool.
o modify BeOS-specific ifdef's to build on Haiku.
o corrected gcc options for building shared libraries on
Solaris and IRIX64.
o change shared-library configuration for OpenBSD, make rpath work.
o build-fixes for using libutf8, e.g., on OpenBSD 3.7
o add "-e" option in ncurses/Makefile.in when generating
source-files to force earlier exit if the build environment
fails unexpectedly.
o add support for shared libraries for QNX.
o change delimiter in MKlib_gen.sh from '%' to '@', to
avoid substitution by IBM xlc to '#' as part of its
extensions to digraphs.
* library:
o rewrite wrapper for wcrtomb, making it work on Solaris.
This is used in the form library to determine the length
of the buffer needed by field_buffer.
o add/use configure script macro CF_SIG_ATOMIC_T, use
the corresponding type for data manipulated by signal
handlers.
o set locale in misc/ncurses-config.in since it uses a
range
o disable GPM mouse support when $TERM does not happen
to contain "linux", since Gpm_Open no longer limits its
assertion to terminals that it might handle, e.g., within
"screen" in xterm.
o reset mouse file-descriptor when unloading GPM library.
* test programs:
o update test programs to build/work with various UNIX
curses for comparisons.
