Log Message:
Update monotone and monotone-server to 0.29:
0.29 release. Code cleanups and bug fixes.
New features:
- The output of 'mtn status' has been changed significantly; the
output formerly used by 'mtn status --brief' has become the
default. For output similar to the old 'mtn status', see
'mtn automate get_revision'.
- It is now significantly easier to control what merger
monotone uses to resolve conflicts; for instance, to use
emacs to resolve conflicts, add:
merge = "emacs"
to your .monotonerc file. To override temporarily, you can
also use the environment variable MTN_MERGE, which takes the
same strings. Currently recognized strings are "kdiff3",
"xxdiff", "opendiff", "tortoisemerge", "emacs", "vim", and
"meld".
- Formerly, monotone's sync-over-ssh support required that an
absolute path be used, with a URL like:
ssh://venge.net/home/njs/my-db.mtn
The following syntaxes are now supported as well:
ssh://venge.net/~/my-db.mtn
ssh://venge.net/~njs/my-db.mtn
Bugs fixed:
- The bug where monotone would sometimes respond to a control-C
(or several other signals) by locking up and refusing to exit,
has been fixed.
- Monotone now properly respects SIGPIPE. In particular, this
means that 'mtn log | less' should now exit promptly when
'less' is exited.
- 'mtn log' now flushes its output after each message; this
makes 'mtn log <FILES>' significantly more usable.
- 'mtn log <FILES>' formerly listed irrelevant revisions (in
particular, any revision which contained a delete of any files
or directories, was always included). This has been fixed.
- If, during an update, two files both had conflicts, which,
when resolved, resulting the two files becoming identical, the
update would error out. This has been fixed.
- If _MTN/log exists and does not end in a newline, we now add a
newline before using the log message. This removes a problem
where the string "MTN:" would end up appended to the last line
of the log message.
- We no longer buffer up an arbitrarily large number of pending
writes in the database. This improves speed and memory usage
for 'commit', and fixes the problem where 'cvs_import' would
run out of memory.
- Monotone's tree walking code (used by 'ls unknown', 'ls
missing', and friends) now uses much less memory, especially
on reiserfs.
Automate changes:
- 'mtn automate stdio' now uses a configurable block size,
controlled by command-line option --automate-stdio-size. This
is mostly useful for testing speed/memory trade-offs.
- 'automate attributes' has a new format, which includes more
information.
Code cleanup:
- We now use boost::program_options to parse command line
options, rather than popt. The only user-visible change
should be that --option="" no longer works as a way to set
some option to the empty string; use --option "". (This
change also removes a lot of orphaned and historically buggy
code from monotone.)
Other:
- zsh completion script significantly revised and updated (see
contrib/monotone.zsh_completion).
