Log Message:
Update to 0.18:
0.18 release. performance improvements, features, and bug fixes.
This release is dedicated to Shweta Narayan.
- most operations sped up by a factor of 2 or better; many sped up
by up several orders of magnitude.
- special thanks to Matt Johnston <matt@ucc.asn.au>, Derek
Scherger <derek@echologic.com>, Linus Torvalds
<torvalds@osdl.org>.
- new concept: "database vars". Used in several features below.
- new features:
- new file "MT/log" can be edited while you work,
sets default changelog. (no change in behaviour if
you do not edit it.) Thanks to Jeremy Cowgar
<jeremy@cowgar.com>.
- monotone now stores default netsync
server/collection, initialized on first use of
netsync.
- you no longer need to manually import server
keys, monotone will fetch the key from the server on
first netsync.
- monotone keeps track of keys of servers you have
previously synced with, to prevent man-in-the-middle
attacks.
- several powerful new "automate" commands added.
- new command 'ls known', lists files that are under version
control. Thanks to Florian Weimer <fw@deneb.enyo.de>.
- preliminary "inodeprints" functionality -- speeds up diff,
status, etc. No UI or documentation yet -- in a working
copy, 'touch MT/inodeprints' to enable, then commit or
update to populate cache.
- UI improvements:
- Added short options -r, -b, -k, -m.
- default to 'dot' ticker-style when stderr is
not a tty, thanks to Derek Scherger
<derek@echologic.com>.
- New "-@/--xargs" option, helpful when using new
automate commands. Thanks to Richard Levitte
<richard@levitte.org>.
- New "--depth" argument to 'log'. Thanks to Richard
Levitte <richard@levitte.org>.
- 'db info' gives statistics on space usage.
- new command 'dropkey'. Thanks to Jeremey Cowgar
<jeremy@cowgar.com>.
- robustness improvement: if monotone crashes in a working
directory and --dump and --debug were not specified, saves
debug dump to "MT/debug" for analysis, instead of
discarding.
- new contributed scripts: CIA (cia.navi.cx) notification,
email notification, Bash completion.
- 33 new integration tests. total line coverage: ~82%.
- many bug fixes
- Special thanks to Matt Johnston <matt@ucc.asn.au>,
for going above and beyond to track down the last
release blocker.
- upgrading from 0.17 requires only a 'db migrate'.
