Changes:
New features:
* New menu item "Bazaar > Work > Ignore unknown files..." to launch new
* qignore
dialog (available in QBzr 0.22.1 or later).
Improvements:
* Added support to populate %(wt_selected)s tool action command placeholder
* from
working tree selected items.
Bug Fixes:
* Use absolute file path when opening with a text editor (Ryan Haigh,
* #836631)
* Fix endless loop on workingtree view filename filter (Jonathan
Riddell, #822738)
* Fix workingtree view filename filter to match first character
(Jonathan Riddell)
* Cope with broken history.dat files which can cause explorer to fail to
start
with a cryptic error from unpickling otherwise. (Martin Packman, #814151)
Workarounds:
* QFileSystemWatcher disabled for working tree view and for repository view.
while running on Windows due the huge amount of bug reports related to it.
-----------------
New features:
* Virtual repositories are now supported. These are plain directories
which are searched for nested locations. If you attempt to open a
location which is not a normal (shared) repository, branch or
checkout, you will be asked if you wish to open it as a virtual
repository. No question is asked if the location is bookmarked or
given on the command line. The virtual repository view is pretty
much identical to a normal repository view, though some menu actions
(like Explore --> Location Information) are not enabled.
* Custom editor applications are now supported. This allows the Edit
action to launch something more sensible than a text editor for
images, diagrams, web pages, office documents, etc. A default set
of editors are defined (in lib/standard_profile/editors.conf) and
these can be extended or overridden by providing a file of the
same name in your explorer configuration directory.
* The repository view now has a Log button. Multiple items can be
logged at once by selecting more than one location at a time.
If no location is selected, the repository is selected.
Improvements:
* Multiple branches can be opened from the command line with
'bzr explorer trunk feature1 feature 2'
* The BZR_EDITOR environment variable is checked when searching for
the text editor to use if one is not configured in bazaar.conf.
Translations:
* Added translations for Danish, English (United Kingdom), Galician,
Indonesian, Polish, Serbian, Swedish.
0.8.3 13-Oct-2009
-----------------
Improvements:
* Change the Help URL to go to the Documentation page on the
website, not the vision page.
* 'bzr help explorer' now points to the new website. It also
provides more information about how to troubleshoot problems.
Bug fixes:
* Display a message rather than error when the "Local Changes" and
"Missing Revisions" tabs are selected for a remote repository.
(Craig Hewetson, #433916)
Translations:
* Added translations for Arabic, Lithuanian and Ukrainian.
