Version 1.4.5 - 15 July 2006, by Eric Blake (CVS version 1.4.4c)
* Fix sysval on BeOS, OS/2, and other systems that store exit status
in the low-order byte. Additionally, on Unix platforms, if syscmd was
terminated by a signal, sysval now displays the signal number shifted
left by eight bits, to match traditional m4 implementations.
* The maketemp macro is no longer subject to platform limitations (such as
26 or 32 max files from a given template).
* Frozen files now require that the first directive be V (version), to
better diagnose version mismatch. Additionally, if the F directive
(builtin function) names an unknown builtin that existed in the m4 that
froze the file but not in the current m4 (for example, changeword), the
warning is deferred until an attempt is made to actually use the
builtin. This allows downgrading from beta m4-1.4o to stable m4-1.4.5
without breaking autoconf.
* The format and indir macros are now recognized only with arguments.
* The eval macro no longer crashes on x86 architectures when dividing the
minimum integer by -1.
* On systems with ecvt and fcvt, format no longer truncates trailing
zeroes on integers printed with %.0f. On systems without these
functions, format is no longer subject to a buffer overflow that
permitted arbitrary code execution.
* On native Windows builds, the macro __windows__ is provided instead of
__unix__. Likewise, on OS/2 builds, the macro __os2__ is provided. This
allows input files to determine when syscmd might behave differently.
* Fix bug in 1.4.3 patch to use \n line-endings that did not work for
cygwin.
* When given the empty string or 0, undivert is now documented as a no-op
rather than closing stdout, warning about a non-existent file, or trying
to read a directory as a file.
* Many documentation improvements. Also, the manual is now distributed
under FDL 1.2, rather than a stricter verbatim-only license.
* Raise the -L (--nesting-limit) command line option limit from 250 to
1024.
* The decr, incr, divert, m4exit, and substr macros treat an empty number
as 0, issue a warning, and expand as normal; rather than issuing an error
and expanding to the empty string.
* The eval macro now treats an empty radix argument as 10, handles radix 1,
and treats the width argument as number of digits excluding the sign,
for compatibility with other m4 implementations.
* The ifdef, divert, m4exit, substr, and translit macros now correctly
ignore extra arguments.
* The popdef and undefine macros now correctly accept multiple arguments.
* Although changeword is on its last leg, if enabled, it now reverts to the
default (faster) regexp when passed the empty string.
* The regexp and substr macros now warn and ignore a trailing backslash in
the replacement, and warn on \n for n larger than the number of
sub-expressions in the regexp.
Version 1.4.4b - 17 June 2006, by Eric Blake (CVS version 1.4.4a)
* Fix a recursive push_string crashing bug, which affected changequote of
three or more characters on some compilers.
* Use automake to fix build portability issues.
* Fix a recursive m4wrap crashing bug.
* Fix a 1 in 2**32 hash crashing bug.
* Tracing a macro by name is now persistent, even if the macro is
subsequently undefined or redefined. The traceon and traceoff macros no
longer warn about undefined symbols. This solves a crash when using
indir on an undefined macro traced with the -t option, as well as an
incorrect result of ifdef. Furthermore, tracing is no longer transferred
with builtins, solving the bug of "m4 -tm4_eval" failing to give trace
output on the input "define(`m4_eval',defn(`eval'))m4_eval(1)".
* Fix a crash when a macro is undefined while collecting its arguments, by
always using the definition that was in effect before argument
collection. This behavior matches the C pre-processor, and means that
the sequence "define(`f',`1')f(define(`f',`2'))f" is now documented to
result in "12", rather than the previously undocumented "22".
* Update the regex engine to fix several bugs.
* Fix a potential crash on machines where char is signed.

Changes since 6.7:
- Added some support for Dragonfly BSD. (Thanks to Joerg Sonnenberger and
Thomas Klausner.)
- Improvements to the HP/UX section of configure.in.
(Thanks to Andreas Tobler.)

bzr 0.8.2 2006-05-17
BUG FIXES:
* setup.py failed to install launchpad plugin. (Martin Pool)
bzr 0.8.1 2006-05-16
BUG FIXES:
* Fix failure to commit a merge in a checkout. (Martin Pool,
Robert Collins, Erik Bågfors, #43959)
* Nicer messages from 'commit' in the case of renames, and correct
messages when a merge has occured. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
* Separate functionality from assert statements as they are skipped in
optimized mode of python. Add the same check to pending merges.
(#44443, Olaf Conradi)
CHANGES:
* Do not show the None revision in output of bzr ancestry. (Olaf Conradi)
* Add info on standalone branches without a working tree.
(#44155, Olaf Conradi)
* Fix bug in knits when raising InvalidRevisionId. (#44284, Olaf Conradi)
CHANGES:

environment variables VISUAL and EDITOR, then try editor from
alternatives system. If that all fails, fall back to the pre-defined
list of editors. (#42904, Olaf Conradi)
NEW FEATURES:
* New 'register-branch' command registers a public branch into
Launchpad.net, where it can be associated with bugs, etc.
(Martin Pool, Bjorn Tillenius, Robert Collins)
TESTING:
* Fix test case for bzr info in upgrading a standalone branch to metadir,
uses bzrlib api now. (Olaf Conradi)
bzr 0.8 2006-05-08
NOTES WHEN UPGRADING:
Release 0.8 of bzr introduces a new format for history storage, called
'knit', as an evolution of to the 'weave' format used in 0.7. Local
and remote operations are faster using knits than weaves. Several
operations including 'init', 'init-repo', and 'upgrade' take a
--format option that controls this. Branching from an existing branch
will keep the same format.
It is possible to merge, pull and push between branches of different
formats but this is slower than moving data between homogenous
branches. It is therefore recommended (but not required) that you
upgrade all branches for a project at the same time. Information on
formats is shown by 'bzr info'.
bzr 0.8 now allows creation of 'repositories', which hold the history
of files and revisions for several branches. Previously bzr kept all
the history for a branch within the .bzr directory at the root of the
branch, and this is still the default. To create a repository, use
the new 'bzr init-repo' command. Branches exist as directories under
the repository and contain just a small amount of information
indicating the current revision of the branch.
bzr 0.8 also supports 'checkouts', which are similar to in cvs and
subversion. Checkouts are associated with a branch (optionally in a
repository), which contains all the historical information. The
result is that a checkout can be deleted without losing any
already-committed revisions. A new 'update' command is also available.
Repositories and checkouts are not supported with the 0.7 storage
format. To use them you must upgrad to either knits, or to the
'metaweave' format, which uses weaves but changes the .bzr directory
arrangement.
IMPROVEMENTS:
* Sftp paths can now be relative, or local, according to the lftp
convention. Paths now take the form:
sftp://user:pass@host:port/~/relative/path
or
sftp://user:pass@host:port/absolute/path
* The FTP transport now tries to reconnect after a temporary
failure. ftp put is made atomic. (Matthieu Moy)
* The FTP transport now maintains a pool of connections, and
reuses them to avoid multiple connections to the same host (like
sftp did). (Daniel Silverstone)
* The bzr_man.py file has been removed. To create the man page now,
use ./generate_docs.py man. The new program can also create other files.
Run "python generate_docs.py --help" for usage information. (Hans
Ulrich Niedermann & James Blackwell).
* Man Page now gives full help (James Blackwell). Help also updated to
reflect user config now being stored in .bazaar (Hans Ulrich
Niedermann)
* It's now possible to set aliases in bazaar.conf (Erik Bågfors)
* Pull now accepts a --revision argument (Erik Bågfors)
* 'bzr re-sign' now allows multiple revisions to be supplied on the command
line. You can now use the following command to sign all of your old commits.
find .bzr/revision-store// -name my@email-* \
| sed 's/.*\/\/..\///' \
| xargs bzr re-sign
* Upgrade can now upgrade over the network. (Robert Collins)
* Two new commands 'bzr checkout' and 'bzr update' allow for CVS/SVN-alike
behaviour. By default they will cache history in the checkout, but
with --lightweight almost all data is kept in the master branch.
(Robert Collins)
* 'revert' unversions newly-versioned files, instead of deleting them.
* 'merge' is more robust. Conflict messages have changed.
* 'merge' and 'revert' no longer clobber existing files that end in '~' or
'.moved'.
* Default log format can be set in configuration and plugins can register
their own formatters. (Erik Bågfors)
* New 'reconcile' command will check branch consistency and repair indexes
that can become out of sync in pre 0.8 formats. (Robert Collins,
Daniel Silverstone)
* New 'bzr init --format' and 'bzr upgrade --format' option to control
what storage format is created or produced. (Robert Collins,
Martin Pool)
* Add parent location to 'bzr info', if there is one. (Olaf Conradi)
* New developer commands 'weave-list' and 'weave-join'. (Martin Pool)
* New 'init-repository' command, plus support for repositories in 'init'
and 'branch' (Aaron Bentley, Erik Bågfors, Robert Collins)
* Improve output of 'info' command. Show all relevant locations related to
working tree, branch and repository. Use kibibytes for binary quantities.
Fix off-by-one error in missing revisions of working tree. Make 'info'
work on branches, repositories and remote locations. Show locations
relative to the shared repository, if applicable. Show locking status
of locations. (Olaf Conradi)
* Diff and merge now safely handle binary files. (Aaron Bentley)
* 'pull' and 'push' now normalise the revision history, so that any two
branches with the same tip revision will have the same output from 'log'.
(Robert Collins)
* 'merge' accepts --remember option to store parent location, like 'push'
and 'pull'. (Olaf Conradi)
* bzr status and diff when files given as arguments do not exist
in the relevant trees. (Martin Pool, #3619)
* Add '.hg' to the default ignore list. (Martin Pool)
* 'knit' is now the default disk format. This improves disk performance and
utilization, increases incremental pull performance, robustness with SFTP
and allows checkouts over SFTP to perform acceptably.
The initial Knit code was contributed by Johan Rydberg based on a
specification by Martin Pool.
(Robert Collins, Aaron Bentley, John Rydberg, Martin Pool).
* New tool to generate all-in-one html version of the manual. (Alexander
Belchenko)
* Hitting CTRL-C while doing an SFTP push will no longer cause stale locks
to be left in the SFTP repository. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool).
* New option 'diff --prefix' to control how files are named in diff
output, with shortcuts '-p0' and '-p1' corresponding to the options for
GNU patch. (Alexander Belchenko, Goffredo Baroncelli, Martin Pool)
* Add --revision option to 'annotate' command. (Olaf Conradi)
* If bzr shows an unexpected revision-history after pulling (perhaps due
to a reweave) it can now be corrected by 'bzr reconcile'.
(Robert Collins)
CHANGES:
* Commit is now verbose by default, and shows changed filenames and the
new revision number. (Robert Collins, Martin Pool)
* Unify 'mv', 'move', 'rename'. (#5379, Matthew Fuller)
* 'bzr -h' shows help. (#35940, Martin Pool, Ian Bicking)
* Make 'pull' and 'push' remember location on failure using --remember.
(Olaf Conradi)
* For compatibility, make old format for using weaves inside metadir
available as 'metaweave' format. Rename format 'metadir' to 'default'.
Clean up help for option --format in commands 'init', 'init-repo' and
'upgrade'. (Olaf Conradi)
TESTING:
* SFTP tests now shortcut the SSH negotiation, reducing test overhead
for testing SFTP protocol support. (Robey Pointer)
* Branch formats are now tested once per implementation (see bzrlib.
tests.branch_implementations. This is analagous to the transport
interface tests, and has been followed up with working tree,
repository and BzrDir tests. (Robert Collins)
* New test base class TestCaseWithTransport provides a transport aware
test environment, useful for testing any transport-interface using
code. The test suite option --transport controls the transport used
by this class (when its not being used as part of implementation
contract testing). (Robert Collins)
* Close logging handler on disabling the test log. This will remove the
handler from the internal list inside python's logging module,
preventing shutdown from closing it twice. (Olaf Conradi)
* Move test case for uncommit to blackbox tests. (Olaf Conradi)
* run_bzr and run_bzr_captured now accept a 'stdin="foo"' parameter which
will provide String("foo") to the command as its stdin.
* Version 0.6.5 (released 2006-06-07)
** Link the library with external libintl, for gettext.
This fixes building on FreeBSD, reported by Kirill Ponomarew
** Update doxygen config file to version 1.4.7.
** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.
* Version 0.6.4 (released 2006-06-07)
** Fix translation of error messages.
Thanks to Joe Orton
** Fix warnings on 64-bit platforms.
Thanks to Joe Orton
** The tests are run under valgrind, if it is installed.
Use --disable-valgrind-tests to unconditionally disable this. It is
disabled by default for cross compiles.
** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.
Release 6.7 04-Jul-06
---------------------
The main additions to this release are the ability to use the same name for
multiple sets of parentheses, and support for CRLF line endings in both the
library and pcregrep (and in pcretest for testing).
Thanks to Ian Taylor, the stack usage for many kinds of pattern has been
significantly reduced for certain subject strings.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
set OVERRIDE_DIRDEPTH to find any libtool scripts deeper in the WRKSRC
tree unless they're named something other than "libtool".
SHLIBTOOL_OVERRIDE generally doesn't need to be specified either -- just
define it to the empty list and shlibtool-override will look for libtool
scripts.
