Log Message:
Update to 0.36:
Changes
- The help command is now able to show documentation on subcommands
(such as 'attr set').
- The help command now shows a brief abstract of each command,
instead of only listing their names.
- The command `list changed` now outputs the new path of any
renamed item making it easier to copy and paste these paths
for external program usage.
- `automate attributes` has been renamed to `automate get_attributes`,
also a bug has been fixed there so resurrected attributes are now
properly outputted as "new" and not "changed".
New features
- Two new commands to set and drop attributes over automate:
`automate set_attribute` and `automate drop_attribute`
- There is a new function available to the lua hooks,
'server_request_sync(what, address, include, exclude)', which will
initate a netsync connection to the server at "address", with the
given include and exclude patterns, and will sync, push, or pull,
as given in the "what" argument. If called from a monotone \
instance
which is not acting as a server, this function will do nothing.
- There is a new hook available,
'get_netsync_key(server, include, exclude)', which is called to
determine which key to use for netsync operations. Note that the
server calls this once at startup with the address it is listening
on, "*", and "" as arguments, rather than for each \
connection.
Other
- Giving the --confdir argument will automatically set the key store
directory to keys/ under that directory, unless --keydir is also
given. This is a bugfix.
- Fixed a regression in 0.35 that resulted in some databases
becoming significantly larger when storing new revisions. Existing
databases with this problem can be fixed by pulling into a fresh
database using 0.36.
- contrib/lua-mode.el, a Lua mode for GNU emacs.
- contrib/monotone-buildbot-notification.lua, a netsync hook to have a
server notify a buildbot when new changes have arrived. Useful for
anyone who uses a buildbot with monotone as source.
- contrib/monotone-cluster-push.lua, a netsync hook script to have
arriving changes be forwarded to other servers automatically. It
uses the new internal lua function 'server_request_sync'.
- contrib/mtn_makepermissions, a simple script to create
read-permissions and write-permissions from files in the directories
read-permissions.d and write-permissions.d, Debian style.
- contrib/Monotone.pm, a first attempt to write a Perl module to
interface with 'monotone automate stdio'.
- contrib/monotone-import.pl has been removed since monotone now has
an internal import command.
Internal
- Commands are now defined as a tree of commands instead of a
plain list, which allows the help system to look up information
of a command at an level in the tree.
- The command class, the automate class and all the associated
macros have been cleaned up.
- All C++ files now depend on base.hh, which includes the few things
that are used virtually everywhere. 'make distcheck' will check for
the presence of base.hh in all source files and will protest if
it's not there. This is explained further in HACKING.
- Update the internal SQLite to version 3.4.0.
- Updated Visual C building system, which now also builds the test
programs. The script visualc/runtests.bat can be used to run the
tests.
- Monotone can now be built successfully with Boost 1.34. Older
versions of monotone would sometimes seem to work depending on
the compiler used, but would have bugs in path normalization.
- Monotone now requires Boost 1.33 or later.
- The Boost filesystem library is no longer required.
- The Boost unit test system is no longer required.
