darcs (1.0.9rc3)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 17 May 2007 09:01:13 GMT

  * Make shell harness failures fatal in Makefile. (Eric Kow)

  * New command, query tags (similar to 'darcs changes -t .) (Florian Weimer)

  * Bugfix, fix bug where we add a file but not its boring parent directory.
    (David Roundy)

  * Buildfix, don't import Control.Exception functions when compiling on
    Windows. (Edwin Thomson)

  * Don't exit with failure when tests_to_run is used and there are no perl
    tests. (David Roundy)

  * Allow escaped quotes in 'quoted' for match text. (Dave Love)

  * Apply patches "tolerantly" to the working directory; don't quit, but print
    a warning for every problem and continue. This is a workaround for a bug
    in darcs where it sometimes fails to update the working directory. When
    darcs updates the working directory it has already successfully updated
    the inventory and the pristine cache, so the repository itself is not
    corrupted. However, an incomplete update to the working directory results
    in unintended differences between the working and pristine tree, looking
    like spurious unrecorded changes. These can be easily removed with 'darcs
    revert', but spurious changes have to be manually sorted out from real
    unrecorded changes. By darcs no longer quiting at the first problem, more
    of the working tree gets updated, giving less spurious changes and less
    manual work to fix the mess should the bug bite you. (issue434, Eric Kow,
    David Roundy)

  * Add a README file, created from HACKING. (issue287, Eric Kow)

  * Include the query commands in the manual. (Florian Weimer)

  * Optimize unrecorded file moves with unrecorded file adds and removals.
    That is, if you add, rename and remove files multiple times without
    recording, whatsnew (and record) will only see the final result, not the
    whole sequence of moves. (Marco Tulio Gontijo e Silva)

  * Fix link error with errno for gcc 4.12 / glibc 2.4. (Benedikt Schmidt)

  * Allow Dist --dist-name to put the tar file in any directory by giving a
    full path as the dist name. (issue323, Wim Lewis)

  * Add rigorous error checking when darcs executes external commands. All
    low-level C return values are checked and turned into exceptions if they
    are error codes. In darcs main ExecExceptions are caught and turned into
    error messages to help the user. (Magnus Jonsson)

  * Redirect error messages from some external commands to stderr. (Tommy
    Pettersson)

  * The ssh control master is now off by default (it seems to hang on some
    large repositories). The option --disable-ssh-cm is replaced by the two
    options --ssh-cm and --no-ssh-cm (default). (Eric Kow)

  * Do not append a colon to host name when calling sftp. This does not solve
    all of issue362, just a minor annoyance along its way. (issue362, Eric
    Kow)

  * Get 'open' and 'psignal' declared on Solaris. (Dave Love)

  * Zsh completion supports new _darcs/pristine repository format. (Georg
    Neis)

  * Add documentation for DARCS_PAGER. (Benedikt Schmidt)

  * Turning off and on the ssh control master works for the Changes command.
    (issue383, Georg Neis)

  * Allow commented tests in tests_to_run. (David Roundy)

  * Improve unhelpful "fromJust" error message in Push command. (Kirsten
    Chevalier)

  * Remove the confusing text "user error" from some of GHC's error
    descriptions. (Juliusz Chroboczek)

  * Check for and fail build configuration if module quickcheck isn't
    available. (issue369, David Roundy)

  * Make darcs push QP-encode the bundle before transferring. This should
    hopefully fix issues with scp/sftp corrupting bundles in transit. (Juliusz
    Chroboczek)

  * Make it an error to Put into a preexisting directory. Often one could be
    tempted to try to put into a directory, expecting to have the repository
    created as a subdirectory there, and it is confusing to have instead the
    repository contents mingled with whatever was already in that directory.
    (David Roundy)

  * Support option --all for Obliterate, Unpull and Unrecord. (issue111, David
    Roundy)

  * Explicitly flush output on Windows after waiting for a lock, because
    Windows' stdout isn't always in line-buffered mode. (Simon Marlow)

  * Ignore failure to set buffering mode for terminal in some places
    (supposedly fixes issue41, issue94, issue146 and issue318). (Tommy
    Pettersson)

  * Make it very clear in the documentation that the options --from and
    --author does NOT have anything to do with the sender or email author when
    sending patches as email with the darcs Send command. (Kirsten Chevalier)

  * Add a semi-automated test for SSH-related things. (Eric Kow)

  * Add make rules for tag files. (Dave Love)

  * Make configure fail if a required module is missing. (David Roundy)

  * The options for turning off and on the ssh control master works from the
    defaults file. (issue351, Tommy Pettersson)

  * Amend-record now keeps explicit dependencies (made with --ask-deps) from
    the amended patch. (issue328, Edwin Thomson)

  * Make libcurl use any http authentication. This let darcs use repositories
    protected with digest authentication. (Tobias Gruetzmacher)

  * Turning off and on the ssh control master works for the Send command.
    (Eric Kow)

  * Redirect stderr to Null when exiting SSH control master. This suppresses
    the output "Exit request sent" not suppressed by the quiet flag. (Eric
    Kow)

  * Fix curses stuff, especially on Solaris 10. (Dave Love)

  * Annotate various boring patterns. (Dave Love)

darcs (1.0.9rc2)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 16 Nov 2006 14:03:51 GMT

  * Pass e-mail address only for %t in --sendmail-command. Msmtp seems to
    require this. Note that the full address is encoded in the message body.
    (Eric Kow)

  * Show error messages on stderr when starting and stopping the ssh control
    master. (Tommy Pettersson)

  * Rewrite check for spoofed patches with malicious paths. The check can now
    be turned off with the option --dont-restrict-paths (issue177). The new
    check only works for Apply and Pull, and it only looks at the remote
    patches. A more complete check is desirable. (Tommy Pettersson)

  * Add LGPL file referenced in fpstring.c (Dave Love).

  * Update FSF address in copyright headers(Dave Love).

  * New default boring file patterns: ,v .# .elc tags SCCS config.log .rej
    .bzr core .obj .a .exe .so .lo .la .darcs-temp-mail .depend and some more
    (Dave Love).

  * Move darcs.ps to the manual directory (Tommy Pettersson).

  * Pass -q flag to scp only, not ssh and scp. Putty's SSH (plink) does not
    recognize the -q flag. (issue334, Eric Kow)

  * Bugfix. Make darcs.cgi look for both pristine and current (Dan).

  * Don't lock the repo during `query manifest' (issue315, Dave Love).

  * Buildfix. Include curses.h with term.h (issue326, Dave Love).

  * Bugfix. Unrecord, Unpull and Obliterate could mess up a repository
    slightly if they removed a tag with a corresponding checkpoint. Only the
    commands Check and Repair were affected by the damage, and Get would also
    copy the damage to the new repository. (issue281, Tommy Pettersson)

  * Add a HACKING file with helpful references to pages on the darcs wiki
    (Jason Dagit).

  * New boring file patterns: hi-boot o-boot (Bulat Ziganshin, Eric Kow).

  * Require 'permission denied' test for MacOS X again. Perhaps something in
    MacOS X was fixed? (Eric Kow).

  * Look for Text.Regex in package regex-compat. Needed for GHC 6.6. (Josef
    Svenningsson)

darcs (1.0.9rc1)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 08 Oct 2006 17:52:07 GMT

  * Improved handling of input, output and error output of external commands.
    Null-redirection on windows now works. Only stderr of ssh is
    null-redirected since putty needs stdin and stdout. (issue219, Eric Kow,
    Tommy Pettersson, Esa Ilari Vuokko)

  * Optimize away reading of non-managed files in summary mode of Whatsnew
    --look-for-adds (issue79, Jason Dagit).

  * Remove direct dependency to mapi32.dll; Improve MAPI compatibility. (Esa
    Ilari Vuokko)

  * Ignore .git if _darcs is found (Juliusz Chroboczek).

  * Add a haskell code policy test to catch uses of unwanted functions, bad
    formating and such. (Tommy Pettersson)

  * If the logfile supplied with option --logfile does not exist, fail instead
    of inserting no long comment. (issue142, Zachary P. Landau)

  * Make the pull 'permission test' work when run as root (Jon Olsson).

  * Handle unsimplified patches when further simplifying the summarized
    output. For unknown reason (a possibly previous version of) darcs allows a
    single patch to Add and Remove the same file in a single patch. The
    Changes command used to combine them, showing just a Remove. (issue185,
    Lele Gaifax)

  * Add workaround for HasBounds that was removed in GHC 6.6 (Esa Ilari
    Vuokko).

  * Really make --disable-ssh-cm work (issue239, Eric Kow).

  * Fix false errors in pull.pl test (David Roundy).

  * Clean up docs on DarcsRepo format (David Roundy).

  * Use stdin for passing the batch file to sftp, to allow password-based
    authentication (issue237, Eric Kow, Ori Avtalion).

  * Make darcs fail if the replace token pattern contains spaces. It would
    otherwise create a non-parsable patch in pending. (issue231, Tommy
    Pettersson)

  * Set a default author in the test suite harness so not every test has to do
    so. (Tommy Pettersson).

  * Run external ssh and scp commands quietly (with the quiet flag), but not
    sftp which doesn't recognize it (issue240). This reduces the amount of
    bogus error messages from putty. (Eric Kow)

  * Implement help --match, which lists all available forms for matching
    patches and tags with the various match options (Eric Kow).

  * Added .elc and .pyc suffixes to default binary file patterns (Juliusz
    Chroboczek ).

  * Added a link to the 'projects' part of the cgi repository interface, so
    that you go back to the project list (Peter Stuifzand).

  * Add a test suite for calling external programs (Eric Kow).

  * Don't warn about non-empty dirs when in quiet mode (Eric Kow).

  * New option --umask. This is best used in a repository's defaults file to
    ensure newly created files in the repository are (not) readable by other
    users. It can also be used when invoking darcs from a mail reader that
    otherwise sets a too restrictive umask. (Issue50, Juliusz Chroboczek)

darcs (1.0.8)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 16 Jun 2006 16:02:13 GMT

  * Only check for ssh control master when it might be used. This suppresses
    the annoying "invalid command" error message. (Issue171, Eric Kow)

  * Fail with a sensible message when there is no default repository to pull
    from. (Lele Gaifax)

darcs (1.0.7)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 13 May 2006 17:14:38 GMT

darcs (1.0.7rc1)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 08 May 2006 10:14:08 GMT

  * Fixed bug leading to a spurious "darcs failed: resource vanished" error
    message when darcs output is piped to a program such as head that then
    exits. (Issue160, David Roundy)

darcs (1.0.7pre1)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 27 Apr 2006 09:59:05 GMT

  * New option --diff-command overrides the default value of "diff" when darcs
    calls an external program to show differences between versions (Eric Kow).

  * Use the ControlMaster feature in OpenSSH version 3.9 and above to
    multiplex ssh sessions over a single connection, instead of opening a new
    connection for every patch (Issue32, Eric Kow).

  * Add a standalone graphical interface (experimental). The gui code prior to
    this patch allows graphical darcs forms to be run from the command line.
    This builds off that functionality by adding a graphical front-end,
    allowing users to access these forms with a click of a button. In other
    words, this allows users to run darcs without the command line. (Eric Kow)

  * Make unpull, unrecord, obliterate accept --gui (Eric Kow).

  * Freshen GUI code so that it compiles (Eric Kow).

  * Provide more information when a remote repository can't be correctly
    identified. (Juliusz Chroboczek)

  * The Send command can save, reuse and delete the accompanying description
    in a logfile. (Zachary P. Landau)

  * Display list of subcommands when getting help on a supercommand. (Eric
    Kow)

  * A proper fix for the problem with rmdir when there are non-managed files
    left in the working copy of the directory so it can't really be removed.
    This solves the two related problems with a missguiding error message in
    one case, and an unreported repository corruption in the other. Now there
    is no false warning and no repository coruption. (issue154, Eric Kow)

  * Escaping of trailing spaces and coloring now works with in the pager
    called with 'p' from interactive dialogues. (issue108, Tommy Pettersson)

  * Added default recognized binary file extensions: bmp, mng, pbm, pgm, pnm,
    ppm, tif, tiff. (Daniel Freedman)

  * Added a RSS link to common.xslt. (Peter Stuifzand)

  * Make short option -i a synonym for --interactive (Zachary P. Landau).

  * Improved argument substitution for --external-merger. All apperences of %N
    are replaced, not only those occurring as single words. (Daan Leijen)

  * Transition from _darcs/current to _darcs/pristine completed. New
    repositories are created with a "pristine" directory. Previous versions of
    darcs have been looking for this directory since version 1.0.2, but older
    versions than that can't read the new repository format. (Juliusz
    Chroboczek)

  * If you specify a repository directory, any absolute paths prefixed by this
    directory are converted to be ones relative to the repodir. (issue39, Eric
    Kow)

  * The --repodir flag works with many more commands: changes, dist, get,
    optimize, repair, replace, setpref, tag, trackdown. (RT#196, RT#567, Eric
    Kow)

  * The --repodir flag works with initialize command, and tries to create it
    if it does not exists. (RT#104, Eric Kow)

  * Add autom4te.cache to default boring patterns. (Kirill Smelkov)

  * Don't create temporary copies of the repository for the external merger
    program, unless there is for sure some conflict to resolve. (Edwin
    Thomson)

  * Modify Changes --interactive dialogue to behave like other interactive
    commands: accept 'y' and 'n' as answers and exit automatically after last
    question. (Zachary P. Landau)

  * Unnamed patches are now called "changes" in the interactive patch
    selection dialogues. (Tommy Pettersson)

  * Treat Enter as an invalid response in single character prompt mode, and
    give feedback instead of being mysteriously silent and unresponsive.
    (RT#261, Eric Kow)

  * Make short option -f a synonym for --force (Zooko).

  * Posthooks no longer cause an output message about success or failure,
    unless the --verbose option is used. (Jason Dagit)

  * Fix crash when using changes --interactive with --patch or --match
    (Zachary P. Landau).

darcs (1.0.6)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 28 Feb 2006 11:18:41 GMT

darcs (1.0.6rc1)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 19 Feb 2006 23:19:19 GMT

  * Check paths when applying patches to files and directories to stop
    maliciously handcrafted patches from modifying files outside of the
    repository or inside darcs private directories (issue48, Tommy
    Pettersson).

  * Revert optimization that sometimes applied patches incorrectly and
    corrupted the repository. This make darcs somewhat slower when applying
    patches. A full pull of the darcs repository itself takes 50% longer.
    (issue128, Tommy Pettersson).

  * Fix bug in Get --tag that produced a corrupt repository (issue67, Edwin
    Thomson).

  * Add newline between long comment and changed files list in dry-run summary
    to remove ambiguity (Edwin Thomson).

  * Extended date matching functionality: ISO 8601 dates and intervals, a
    larger subset of English like "yesterday at noon" (issue31/RT#34, Eric
    Kow).

  * Allow rename to different case (RT #466, Eric Kow).

  * Save long comment in a file if record fails the test run (Zachary P.
    Landau).

  * Fix win32 build breaks (Will Glozer).

  * Make --exact-version work when darcs is built from distributed tar ball
    (Marnix Klooster).

  * Coalesce pending changes created with setpref (issue70/RT#349, Eric Kow).

  * Support --interactive option in changes command (issue59, Zachary P.
    Landau).

  * New help command (RT#307, Eric Kow).

  * Add --without-docs option to configure (Richard Smith).

  * Obey normal autoconf conventions. Allows you to 'make install prefix=...'
    and doesn't change default for sysconfdir. (Dave Love)

  * Fix bug with non-existing directories. (David Roundy)

  * Remote apply does not use cd to change current directory to target
    directory any more. It uses --repodir when invoking remote darcs. This may
    break some darcs wrappers. (Victor Hugo Borja Rodriguez)

  * Support signed push (Esa Ilari Vuokko).

  * Added support for pulling from multiple repositories with one pull. The
    choice of --union/--intersection determines whether all new patches are
    pulled, or just those which are in all source repositories. This feature
    implements a suggestion by Junio Hamano of git. (David Roundy)

  * Patch bundle attachments get a file name, based on the first patch.
    (Zachary P. Landau)

  * The send command now takes a --subject flag. (Joeri van Ruth)

  * Fix --set-scripts-executable to work also when getting a local repository.
    (issue38, Eric Kow)

  * Removed the helper program darcs-createrepo. It was used for guided settup
    of a darcs repository and a corresponding user account to accept patches
    from signed emails. (issue14, Jason Dagit)

  * Print out the patch name when a test fails. (Zachary P. Landau).

  * Bugfix for --sendmail-command in Windows (Esa Ilari Vuokko).

  * Make apply --verify work with GnuPG in Windows (Esa Ilari Vuokko)

  * Bugfix for handling of absolute paths in Windows (issue47, Will Glozer)

darcs (1.0.5)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 07 Dec 2005 11:27:30 GMT

darcs (1.0.5rc2)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 04 Dec 2005 15:24:16 GMT

  * Fixes for Windows (Will Glozer).

  * Adapt makefile to work with current ghc 6.4 (Will Glozer).

  * --help and --list-commands ignore other options (issue34, Eric Kow).

  * Fix apply with --verify for patch bundles signed by GnuPG in Windows (Esa
    Ilari Vuokko).

darcs (1.0.5rc1)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 25 Nov 2005 19:17:39 GMT

  * Make patch selection options together with --context work again (Daniel
    Bünzli).

  * Make option --commands outside of a repository work again (issue9, David
    Roundy).

  * Bugfix for pushing with ssh under Windows (issue15, Will Glozer).

  * Fix superfluous input bug in test suite (Florian Weimer).

  * Many English and markup fixes (Dave Love).

darcs (1.0.4)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@darcs.net>  Sun, 13 Nov 2005 13:44:31 GMT

  * Fixed a bug in the external conflict resolution code. (bug #577, David
    Roundy)

  * Fixed a bug which made apply sometimes (but rarely) fail to check the the
    hash on patch bundles corrupted in just the wrong way. (David Roundy)

  * Added a simple check to darcs replace that avoids tokenizing lines that
    don't contain the token we're replacing. I feel a bit bad about
    introducing an optimization this late in the release cycle, but it makes a
    huge difference, and really should be safe. (David Roundy---famous last
    words)

  * Fixed bug where darcs didn't honor the SSH_PORT environment variable when
    calling sftp. (bug #576, fix suggested by Nicolas Frisby)

  * Avoid putting a wrongly-named directory in the tarball generated by darcs
    dist, if the name we wanted already exists in $TMPDIR. (Simon McVittie)

darcs (1.0.4rc2)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@darcs.net>  Sun, 06 Nov 2005 12:16:31 GMT

  * Fixed bug which caused "pull_firsts_middles called badly" errors when
    running record with --ask-deps flag. (bug #476, David Roundy)

  * Fixed bug where 'darcs changes --context' created a context that contained
    escapes that prevented its use with send. (bug #544, David Roundy)

darcs (1.0.4rc1)

 -- Tommy Pettersson <ptp@lysator.liu.se>  Sun, 08 Oct 2005 10:16:53 GMT

  * Make interactive push/pull/send/apply respect the --summary option by
    printing each patch as if you had hit 'x'. (David Roundy, bug #512)

  * Fix bug when calling whatsnew --summary when a file without a trailing
    newline has been deleted. (David Roundy)

  * Fix --set-scripts-executable to work again. This feature had been broken
    since version 1.0.3. (David Roundy)

  * Simple (safe) fix for a bug which caused darcs to run out of file
    descriptors when pulling over 1000 patches. (David Roundy)

  * Fix bug in perl parts of test suite which led to spurious warning
    messages. (David Roundy)

  * Fix bug in configure when compiling darcs from tarball on a system that
    has no darcs present. (David Roundy)

  * Fix bug that shows up when recording in a repository lacking a pristine
    tree. (David Roundy)

darcs (1.0.4pre4)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@darcs.net>  Sun, 01 Sep 2005 11:04:18 GMT

  * Fix error in install target of makefile, which was introduced in
    1.0.4pre3. (Andres Loeh)

darcs (1.0.4pre3)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@darcs.net>  Sun, 31 Aug 2005 11:54:48 GMT

  * Fix problem where make install modified the permissions on system
    directories. (David Roundy, bug #494)

  * Fix bug in display when whatsnew is given "-l" twice. (David Roundy, bug
    #501)

  * Added support for --posthook to all commands. (Jason Dagit)

  * Made repair able to work on partial repositories. (fixes bug #189)

  * Changed the delimiter in the long-comment file from ***DARCS*** to ***END
    OF DESCRIPTION*** and clarified its meaning a bit. (Jason Dagit and David
    Roundy)

  * Added code to allow darcs to apply some patch bundles that have had
    carriage returns added to their line endings. (David Roundy, bug #291)

  * Make darcs accept command line flags in any order, rather than requiring
    that they precede file, directory or repository arguments. Fixes bug #477
    (David Roundy)

  * Modified darcs get to display patch numbers rather than a bunch of dots
    while applying patches during a darcs get. Also added similar feedback to
    the check and repair commands. (Mat Lavin, bug #212)

  * Made revert --all not ask for confirmation, so it can be used in
    scripting, as one would use pull --all or record --all. (Jani Monoses)

  * Added file ChangeLog.README explaining how to add entries to the
    changelog. (Mark Stosberg and David Roundy)

  * Fixed incompatibility with somewhat older versions of libcurl. (Kannan
    Goundan)

  * Fixed bug that showed up when after editing a long comment, the long
    comment file is empty. (David Roundy, bug #224)

darcs (1.0.4pre2)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sun, 31 Jul 2005 12:10:29 GMT

  * (EXPERIMENTAL) Added support for reading and writing to git repositories.
    There remain efficiency issues with the handling of git merges and darcs
    is not yet able to either create a new git repository, or to pull from a
    remote git repository. See building darcs chapter in manual for
    instructions on building darcs with git support. (Juliusz Chroboczek,
    configuration contributed by Wim Lewis)

  * Add new "query manifest" command to list files and/or directories in
    repository. Add some related infrastucture to support "subcommands".
    (Florian Weimer)

  * Make configure properly detect that we're on windows when building under
    mingw. (David Roundy)

  * Fixed bug #208: error when specifying pulling from a relative default
    repository if we are ourselves within a subdirectory of our repository.
    (David Roundy)

  * Change internal mechanism for writing the "pending" file to be (hopefully)
    more robust. (David Roundy, original idea by Ian Lynagh)

  * Fixed a bug that caused get --partial to fail sometimes. (David Roundy)

  * Made push/pull --verbose --dry-run now display contents of patches,
    analogous to the behavior of changes --verbose. (Jim Radford)

  * Various build system cleanups. (Peter Simons)

darcs (1.0.4pre1)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sun, 18 Jul 2005 11:22:34 GMT

  * Performance improvement: Several commands now read patches lazily, which
    reduces memory usage. A test of 'darcs check' on the Linux kernel
    repository showed the memory usage was nearly cut in half, from about 700
    Megs to 400. Coded by David Roundy.

  * New feature: darcs put, the easiest way to create a remote repo, symmetric
    with 'darcs get'. Coded by Josef Svenningsson.

  * Performance improvement: RT#222: darcs performs better on files with
    massive changes. Coded by Benedikt Schmidt.

  * New Feature: darcs optimize now has "--modernize-patches" and
    "--reorder-patches" flags. See the manual for details.

  * Performance improvement: Using 'darcs diff' is now exponentially faster
    when comparing specific files in the working directory to the most recent
    copy in the repo. Coded by kannan@cakoose.com.

darcs (1.0.3)

 -- Tomasz Zielonka <tomasz.zielonka@gmail.com>  Sun, 24 May 2005 21:51:27 GMT

  * Fixed bug #396: error when specifying a removed file on the command line
    of darcs record.

darcs (1.0.3rc2)

 -- Tomasz Zielonka <tomasz.zielonka@gmail.com>  Sun, 15 May 2005 08:56:17 GMT

  * Internals: darcs' ChangeLog is automatically generated from repo history
    and a database of ChangeLog entries (Tomasz Zielonka)

  * Fixed: RT#370: --tags work in unpull and unrecord (Tommy Pettersson)

  * New feature: added support for displaying patches with pager when
    selecting patches (Benedikt Schmidt)

darcs (1.0.3rc1)

 -- Tomasz Zielonka <tomasz.zielonka@gmail.com>  Sun, 26 Apr 2005 00:25:54 GMT

  * New Feature: darcs.cgi now uses appropriate caching headers. This will
    make repeated calls to the same pages by cache-aware browsers much faste
    in some cases. It also means that darcs.cgi can be usefully combined with
    a cache-aware proxy for even better performance. (Will Glozer)

  * New feature: more control over color and escaping in printed patches,
    alternative color scheme, escaping of trailing spaces (Tommy Pettersson)

  * Fixed: fixed bug manifesting with failed createDirectory (David Roundy)

  * Internals: RT#255, several welcome refactors were made to the test suite,
    including comprehensible shell test script output, improved portability,
    and easier maintenance. (Michael Schwern).

  * New Feature: RT#245: Using --look-for-adds with 'whatsnew' implies
    --summary. This should save some typing for the common case. (Karel
    Gardas, Mark Stosberg)

  * New Feature: RT#231: darcs gives better feedback now if you try to record
    nonexistent files or directories. (Karel Gardas, Mark Stosberg)

  * New feature: send accepts --sendmail-command that allows to customize the
    command used for sending patch bundles (Benedikt Schmidt)

  * Fixed: RT#266: Adding a non-existent dir and file gives the expected
    message now. (Tomasz Zielonka).

  * Fixed: RT#10, a missed conflict resolution case. More accurately, we
    noticed at had been fixed some point. A regression test for it was added.
    (Tomasz Zielonka, Mark Stosberg)

  * New feature: darcs tag can now accept the tag name on the command line
    (RT#143). (Josef Svenningsson, Mark Stosberg, David Roundy)

  * New feature: unrecord and unpull have a more powerful interface similar to
    'darcs pull'. This allows for multiple patch selection. Coded by Tommy
    Pettersson.

  * Bug fix: RT#305: Removed '--patch' from the 'changes', which conflicted
    with the new '--patches' option.

  * New feature: Automatically add parent directories for darcs add. (RT#20)
    Coded by Benedikt Schmidt.

  * Add helpful diagnostic message when there is a failure while pulling
    (RT#201)

  * Allow darcs to work with a password protected proxy.
  * Get multiple files with a single wget call when darcs is compiled
    without libcurl support.

  * Made _darcs/current polymorphic (but not really documented).
  * Made optimize --uncompress work with --partial repos.
  * Various minor interface improvements.
  * Made changes work better when specifying a file, and working in a

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Mon,  8 Nov 2004 06:12:08 -0500

darcs (1.0.0rc4)

  * Use autoconf to check for working install program.
  * Renamed rerecord to amend-record in a futile attempt to avoid
    confusion.
  * Made pull accept the --repodir option.

  * Fixed embarrassing failure-to-compile-on-windows bug.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Mon,  1 Nov 2004 05:19:01 -0500

darcs (1.0.0rc3)

  * Fixed bug leading to creation of empty "hunk" patches.
  * Fixed bug in rollback when there are pending changes.
  * Fixed push bug when default apply is --interactive.
  * Fixed a bug where "darcs pull --list-options" would try to
    complete to "home/.../darcs_repo" instead of "/home/.../darcs_repo".

  * Added 'a' key to say yes to all remaining changes for interactive
    commands.
  * Automatically generate AUTHORS file from repo history.
  * Made pull --quiet actually quiet.
  * Fixed bugs in whatsnew -ls, and distinguished between manually added
    files and automatically added files.
  * Fixed bug in darcs --commands when called outside a repo.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sun,  3 Oct 2004 07:45:05 -0400

darcs (1.0.0rc2)

  * Added support for comments in prefs files.
  * Added new --enable-antimemoize compile option which reduces memory
    usage at the expense of increased computational time.
  * Added a new command:  "reportbug"
  * Fixed a bug that prevented applying of a patch bundle to an
    "unoptimized" repo.
  * Fixed bug where asking for changes to a nonexistent file in a
    subdirectory would show the patch that created or renamed that
    subdirectory.
  * Improved the robustness of unrevert.  Now actions that will make
    unrevert impossible should warn the user.
  * Fixed bug when moving files or directories to the root directory of
    repo.
  * Various changes to make the --logfile way of specifying the patch name
    and comments in record more friendly:
    - Allows editing of the long comment even when --logfile is specified,
      if the --edit-long-comment option is also used.
    - When editing the long comment, the change summary is included below
      the actual text for reference, and the patch name is included in the
      first line (and thus may be modified).
    - The --logfile option is ignored if such a file doesn't exist.
    - A --delete-logfile option was added, which tells darcs to delete the
      file after doing the record.  This is intended to allow you to stick
      a --logfile=foo option in your defaults without accidentally
      recording multiple patches with the same comments because you forgot
      to modify it.
  * Fixed bug leading to .hi files in tarball.
  * Made ctrl-C work under windows, but only "pure" windows consoles, not
    in cygwin shells or mingw's rxvt (room for improvement here).
  * Fixed bug that led to curl not being tried when darcs is not compiled
    with libcurl.
  * Added an environment variable DARCS_USE_ISPRINT for people who use
    non-ascii characters in their files to indicate if the haskell standard
    library "isPrint" function works properly on their system (which
    depends on locale).
  * Reduced the number of hunks produced by the internal diff algorithm,
    when there are multiple equivalent ways of interpreting a change.
  * Made the --from-{patch,tag,match} options inclusive, and added a
    --{patch,match} option to diff (which was made easier to define by the
    inclusiveness change, since --patch x is now equivalent to
    --from-patch x --to-patch x).
  * Added support for a second argument to get, which specifies the name of
    the new directory.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sun, 12 Sep 2004 06:54:45 -0400

darcs (1.0.0rc1)

  * Remove some lazy file IO which may have been causing trouble pushing in
    windows and using windows shares.
  * Various interface improvements and improved error messages.
  * Fixed bug that could cause conflicts in pending when unrecording a
    patch that contained two non-commuting non-hunk patches.
  * Fixed bug in --ask-deps option of record.
  * Added --exact-version option which gives the precise darcs context from
    which darcs was compiled.
  * MIME fixes in patch forwarding.
  * Various improvements to the darcs.cgi script.
  * Added --reverse option to changes.
  * Fixed patch numbering when file or directory arguments are given to an
    interactive command.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sun, 15 Aug 2004 07:43:30 -0400

darcs (0.9.23)

  * Added a rerecord command, which will add changes to an existing
    recorded patch
  * Added support for a MOTD.
  * Vastly improved the speed and memory use of darcs optimize --checkpoint
    as well as darcs record, in the case where a record consists primarily
    of adds.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Mon, 26 Jul 2004 08:11:20 -0400

darcs (0.9.22)

  * add preliminary --context option to changes and get.
  * display change number, e.g. "(1/3)" in interactive commands.

  * add hash of patch bundles in darcs send.
  * properly support --verbose and --quiet in add.
  * don't display binary data to screen.
  * fix bug in selecting patches by pattern.
  * fix various locking-related bugs introduced in 0.9.21.
  * fix bug when specifying logfile in a subdirectory.
  * support backslashes for directory separators in windows.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sat, 26 Jun 2004 07:42:05 -0400

darcs (0.9.21)

  * made mv work even if you've already mv'ed the file or directory.
  * remember configure settings when reconfiguring.
  * added --leave-test-directory to save the directory in which the test is
    run on record or check.
  * added HTTP redirect support (thanks Benedikt).
  * fixed problems when unrecording a patch with conflits.
  * fixed locking on nfs (thanks Juliusz).

    repositories (thanks to Will Glozer for contributing this).
  * add and modify a number of short flag options.
  * fix bug in applying new order patch bundles that are GPG signed.
  * fix bug in diff when a tagged version was requested.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sat, 12 Jun 2004 05:39:48 -0400

darcs (0.9.20)

  * fix bug in darcs-createrepo.
  * add support for DARCS_SCP and DARCS_SSH environment variables.
  * add XML support for --summary options of changes and annotate.
  * better command-line completion on commands accepting a list of files or
    directories.
  * fix bug causing empty hunk patches to lead to failures.
  * fix bug where --all overrode file choice in record.
  * fix bug when testing patches that create subdirectories within subdirectories.
  * preserve pending changes when pulling or applying.
  * give better error message in pull when patch isn't readable.
  * allow sendEmail with no "to", just "cc" recipients.  This should fix
    the trouble with trying to --reply to a patch coming from a push rather
    than a send.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Wed,  5 May 2004 06:01:48 -0400

darcs (0.9.19)

  * fix bugs leading to failures in the wxhaskell interface.
  * fix bug that caused darcs diff to fail.
  * fixed bug in get that lead to _darcs/current/_darcs directories.
  * improved error reporting in several situations.
  * fixed bug when pulling or pushing into an empty repo.
  * added --summary option to changes to summarize the changes made in each
    patch.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Fri,  9 Apr 2004 07:19:34 -0400

darcs (0.9.18)

  * added support for sending email from windows using the MAPI interface.
    This code attaches the patch bundle in base64-encoded form, which darcs
    can't currently decode (expect that in the next release), but the patch
    bundle can be manually applied if a mail program does the decoding.
  * renamed "darcs push" to "darcs send" and added a new "darcs push"
    command roughly equivalent to the old "darcs push --and-apply".
  * removed support for setting up a test suite by simple creating a file
    named "darcs_test".  You now should use setpref to define the test
    suite command.
  * fixed some problems when working in a --partial repository.
  * lots of code was cleaned up.  We have enabled the -Wall compiler flag
    and are in the process of eliminating all the warnings.  This should
    make the code more friendly to new developers, and also helps with the
    next bullet point:
  * improved handling of errors--informative failure messages are more
    likely than they were before.
  * by default only check changes made since last checkpoint--this greatly
    speeds up check.
  * add --quiet option.  Some commands don't yet support this.  If
    there's a command you want to quiet down, let us know.
  * several performance enhancements: improved SHA1 performance, faster
    check and get on repositories with a long history and improved
    performance with very large files.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Thu,  1 Apr 2004 05:43:18 -0500

darcs (0.9.17)

  * fixed bug in darcs apply that made the --no-test option fail.
  * fixed bug that caused darcs to set file permissions to be
    non-world-readable.
  * darcs record and whatsnew can now accept file or directory arguments
    and limit their actions to changes in those files or directories.
  * darcs changes now can accept file or directory arguments and limit
    itself to changes affecting those files or directories.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sat, 21 Feb 2004 08:12:34 -0500

darcs (0.9.16)

  * Add --sign-as=KEYID option to push command.
  * make optimize split up inventory for faster pulls
  * Allow use of a different make command for tests, such as gmake
  * Can now put prefs that would normally go in _darcs/prefs (defaults,
    binaries and boring) in ~/.darcs/ to set the prefs for all your
    repositories at once.
  * add primitive xml output to annotate of directory.
  * When pushing a patch, add the list of changes in the description.
  * refuse to rollback a patch twice, since that would cause problems.
  * make darcs diff accept optional arguments indicating files and
    directories to diff.
  * preserve permissions on files in working directory.
  * put docs in ...share/doc/darcs not share/darcs/doc.
  * add support for multiple-choice options.  This means that you can now
    set your default option in _darcs/prefs/defaults, and then override
    that default on the command line.
  * shortened --use-external-merge-tool option to --external-merge
  * more "boring" patterns.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Tue, 10 Feb 2004 07:08:14 -0500

darcs (0.9.15)

  * next step repository format transition--we use the new patch filenames.
  * fix handling of text files with no trailing newline--this will cause
    some trouble.  Darcs will require that you convert your repository
    using convert-repo.  This will leave you with a bunch of changes
    regarding trailing newlines which you will either want to record or
    revert.
  * the windows support is somewhat improved.
  * added simple "repair" command that can repair some kinds of
    inconsistencies in the repository.
  * added primitive "annotate" command to extract information about
    modifications to files and directories.
  * fixed handling of darcs mv to allow moving to directories in a more
    intuitive manner.
  * handling of binary files was dramatically improved in both memory and
    cpu usage.
  * added autoconf testing framework to clean up code dealing with
    different versions of ghc, features that don't exist on windows, bugs
    that only exist on windows, etc.
  * don't accept invalid flags.
  * add more patterns to boring and binary.
  * use autoconf test to handle posix signals and windows '\\' handling.
  * switch to using new patch filenames.
  * XML formatted output for 'changes' command
  * add support for unidiff-like whatsnew output.
  * fix bug in RTS memory calculation for large RAM size
  * add rollback command.
  * improve checkpointing support.
  * add diff-opts option to darcs diff.
  * add support for building docs using htlatex or hevea rather than
    latex2html.
  * use locking whereever it is needed.
  * add safe (atomic) writing of inventory files.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Fri, 12 Dec 2003 07:59:54 -0500

darcs (0.9.14)

  * darcs changes now shows times formatted according to current locale.
  * add support for automatically treating files containing ^Z or '\0' as
    binary.
  * add experimental checkpointing, allowing get to only download the
    recent change history.
  * allow darcs to be called within subdirectories of a repository.
  * make default be to compress patches.
  * add --summary option to whatsnew.
  * add trackdown command.
  * fix bug in darcs dist --verbose.
  * make darcs diff have closer behavior to cvs diff.  In particular, darcs
    diff with no arguments now gives you the difference between the working
    directory and the latest recorded version.
  * support external graphical merge tools.
  * fix bug where binary patch is created even with no change.
  * support darcs -v for version.  Also mention the darcs version in the
    usage mesage.
  * ignore empty lines in boring file and binary file.
  * preserve pending changes (e.g. file adds or darcs replaces) across
    revert and record.
  * create repositories with new patch filename format.
    The new repo format is now created alongside the old format, but the
    old format is read.  There is a tool called convert-repo that will
    convert an old format repo to have both formats.
  * use iso format for dates in record.
  * New patch-selecting interface.
    This patch only uses the new routine for revert, since it's not
    particularly well tested.  The text method now allows one to go back
    and edit previous patches.  The idea is that eventually all commands
    that need the user to select a subset of patches will use this routine.
  * use hash for cgi cache file names.
  * add preliminary experimental GUI support using wxhaskell.
  * remember author name after first record in a repo.
  * add unrevert command.
  * always match full pathnames when checking boringness or binaryness.
  * rewrite replace tokenizer for more speed.
  * make darcs compile with ghc 6.2 and later.
  * fix some bugs in darcs diff.
  * make --and-apply work locally as well as via ssh.
    Also added a --and-apply-as that uses sudo to run the apply command as
    a different user.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Mon, 10 Nov 2003 07:08:20 -0500

darcs (0.9.13)

  * Various performance enhancements.
  * add --pipe option to tag and record, which causes them to prompt for
    all their input, including date.  This can be useful when creating
    repository converters.
  * remove '-t' short command line option for '--to' and the '-o' short
    option for '--reponame'.
  * remove the darcs-patcher program.
        The functionality of the darcs-patcher program is taken over by
        the darcs apply command.  Several fancy features have been added,
        as described in the Apply section of the manual.
  * support spaces and (maybe) unicode in filenames.
  * updates to win32 support
  * push via ssh
  * add --without-libcurl option to configure
  * include DarcsURL in push email.
  * add support for reading and writing gzipped patch files.
  * allow multiple --to addresses on push, and also support --cc for
    additional addresses.
  * when pulling or pushing from lastrepo, say where lastrepo is.
  * only save lastrepo in get if the source repo wasn't a relative
    directory path.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>

darcs (0.9.12)

  * add manual section on building darcs.
  * improve scaling of checking for and resolving conflicts, which was an
    O(n^2) function.
  * escape ESC char when printing patches.
  * don't reorder patches unless necesary--this avoids an O(n^2) operation
    which was making a darcs record very slow when a lot of files were
    added.
  * fix default regexps for boring file (Thanks Trevor!)
  * replace now ignores files that aren't in the repo.
  * make darcs add refuse to add files whose subdirectories don't exist.
  * implement support for binary files.
  * added support for running external programs to fetch files.
  * fix conflict resolution bug from 0.9.11.
  * make the patcher run the test prior to applying.
  * add repo locking.
  * Fix bug when pulling from a repo containing just one patch (thanks
    Peter).
  * install cgi script in cgi-bin directory.

darcs (0.9.11)

  * A rewrite of the configure code and makefile (thanks to Peter Simons).
  * Added several new repository configuration options including a setpref
    command which allows you to set preferences options that are pulled
    from repo to repo.
  * Yet another rewrite of the merging code.
  * User can now revert changes on a change-by-change basis.
  * Yet another major improvement in speed and memory consumption.
  * Add a darcs diff command to compare two versions.

darcs (0.9.10)

  * Added a way to configure the default values for options to darcs
    commands.  See Appendix B of manual.
  * darcs push and pull now default to pulling and pushing from the most
    recently accessed repository (if you don't specify a repo).
  * Numerous bugfixes.

darcs (0.9.9)

  * Created a way to have a "centralized server".  (See darcs-patcher
    chapter in manual).
  * Added new darcs-server package.
  * Switch to new repository format.  Note that your repo will only be
    converted to the new format if you use certain commands such as
    unpull.  You can recognize the new format by the presence of a
    _darcs/inventories/ directory.
  * Add the ability to sign patches sent with push using gnupg and to
    verify those signatures when applying.  (This is the authentication
    basis for the above-mentioned server).
  * Fix bug in application of a file rename patch.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Thu,  8 May 2003 06:58:42 -0400

darcs (0.9.8)

  * Fix rare bug in check when files happen to be a multiple of 1024 bytes
    in length.
  * Fix bug in reading patch ids with long comments from local files.
  * Prepare for a change in the repository format.  The format doesn't
    change for this version, but version 0.9.8 is able to read the new
    repository format.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Wed, 30 Apr 2003 08:54:18 -0400

darcs (0.9.7)

  * Fix a couple of rename conflict bugs.
  * Add new test suite framework, along with several tests.
  * Several major optimizations for speed and memory.
  * Added --ignore-times option to not assume that when a file
    modification time hasn't changed the file itself hasn't changed.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Sat, 26 Apr 2003 07:57:01 -0400

darcs (0.9.6)

  * Fixed a couple of bugs in the merging of conflicting renames.
  * Added an interface to include long comments when recording.
  * Improve the interface of pull, allowing for viewing the patches before
    pulling them.
  * Include zsh command completion examples with docs.
  * Massively improved responsiveness in command completion.
  * Use packed strings to save memory.
  * Fixed a bug that shows up in empty repos.
  * Fixed multiple bugs in the mv command.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Thu, 17 Apr 2003 09:34:34 -0400

darcs (0.9.5)

  * Improve merge of creation of files and directories with the same name.
  * Add darcs push and apply commands, which are the beginning of work
    towards supporting a "centralized server" concept a la CVS.  However,
    they are also useful for a "Linus" style workflow, based on emailing
    patches.  In theory they could also be used to provide a smart server
    that could server pulls using less bandwidth.
  * Add an unpull command analagous to unrecord, but which removes the
    patches from the working directory also.
  * Enable the mv command, since the mv patches have now been supported by
    a couple of versions.
  * Include zsh_completion code, thanks to Aaron Denney <wnoise@ofb.net>.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Wed,  9 Apr 2003 07:52:01 -0400

darcs (0.9.4)

  * Speed up whatsnew and record in the case where there are huge numbers
    of extra files in the working directory.
  * Small (~10%) speedup in get.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Fri,  4 Apr 2003 09:08:38 -0500

darcs (0.9.3)

  * Optimized whatsnew and record by seting modification time of "current"
    files equal to that of working files if they are identical, so I won't
    have to check again if the working one hasn't been changed.
  * Rewrite file renaming code (no creation).
  * Add support for replacing tokens in files.
  * Make cgi output work more accurately, and point out which files were
    modified by each patch.
  * Add a caching feature to the cgi script to speed things up a bit.
  * Turn on creation of dependencies when recording.
  * Add a 'tag' command.
  * Rewrote the 'pull' code to hopefully speed it up (and in any case to
    greatly simplify it).

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Thu,  3 Apr 2003 07:08:05 -0500

darcs (0.9.2)

  * Add build dependency on tetex and latex2html
  * Have internal diff code properly respond to deleted files and
    directories.
  * Create file and directory rename patch types. (no creation--which
    means that I am waiting to create commands to create such patches
    until later, to avoid backward compatibility issues of repos.)
  * Add support for patch dependencies. (no creation)
  * Add support for token replacement patches. (no creation)

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Thu, 27 Mar 2003 07:59:09 -0500

darcs (0.9.1)

  * Make darcs get --verbose actually be verbose (which is important
    because it takes so long that the user might be afraid it's hanging.
  * Speed up the merge in complicated cases, possibly dramatically.
  * Add a darcs remove command.

 -- David Roundy <droundy@abridgegame.org>  Mon, 10 Mar 2003 09:48:55 -0500

darcs 0.9.0

  * Initial Release.
