What's changed in loggerhead?
2
2
=============================
7
- Default sqlite interface is now sqlite3. (Robert Collins)
9
- New ninja theme sponsored by Canonical (Martin Albisetti)
11
- Added COPYING file and clarified copyright headers (John Arbash Meinel)
13
- Remove the .py extension requiered by the Debian Policy.
16
- Loggerhead is no longer a TurboGears application, but rather a
17
WSGI application built using Paste (see http://wsgi.org/ and
18
http://pythonpaste.org/ for more about WSGI and Paste). XXX more.
20
- zpt.cleaner_urls bug 138021 ("loggerhead should generate links
21
based on revision numbers and file paths"). XXX more.
23
- The scripts no longer insist on Python 2.4 -- loggerhead works
26
- Bazaar as of version 1.5 has improved in performance enough that
27
the revision cache no longer gave any noticeable benefit, so it
28
was removed (the files-changed cache is still useful).
30
- The templates were rewritten in Zope's TAL markup, powered by
31
the simpleTAL library -- improving both the performance and
32
memory consumption of rendering by a factor of around 3 for
33
large pages over the old Kid templates.
35
- Loggerhead's poorly performing text index was disabled. bzr-search
36
is now used if the plugin is installed and a text index is present
37
on the branch being viewed. (Martin Albisetti, Robert Collins).
39
- Loggerhead no longer depends on bzrlib functions deprecated in
40
Bazaar 1.5 and removed in 1.6 (Martin Albisetti).
42
- The daemonization code was made more regular, fixing bugs
43
#139161 ("Starting loggerhead process may not close its stdin
44
and stdout properly") and #211526 ("Codebrowse log directory has
45
unnecessarily permissive permissions")
47
- Some confusion about what the 'file_id' query argument means was
48
cleared up: filter_file_id now means "filter revisions to those
49
that affect this file" in all views and file_id means "examine
50
this file/directory" in the annotate and inventory views.
52
- Dates are present more compactly.
54
- The loggerhead.conf file can specify which network interface to
55
bind to (Mattias Eriksson)
60
- The changelog view was out of order when not using the revision
7
65
- Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@canonical.com> has mostly taken
8
66
over the maintenance of loggerhead.
23
81
- Much dead code was removed.
25
83
- Loggerhead now computes the files changed between revisions only
26
when it needs to know this, which is a fairly expensive
27
operation in Bazaar. This massively improves performance and
28
memory usage in some situations.
84
when it needs to know this. This is a fairly expensive
85
operation in Bazaar, and doing it less massively improves
86
performance and memory usage in some situations.
30
88
- Loggerhead now takes a read lock on the branch being viewed for
31
89
the duration of each request, which improves performance
38
96
- The creation of History objects is much faster for large
39
97
branches (Aaron Bentley).
99
- Allow the construction of URLs using revnos and file paths as
100
well as revids and fileids (bug #98826):
102
- For changes pages, append the newest revno to display to the
103
URL, like http://.../changes/<revno>
105
- For annotate pages, append the revno to display to the URL,
106
followed by the path, like http://.../annotate/<revno>/<path>
108
- For file listing and revision pages append the revno to
109
display to the URL, like http://.../files/<revno>
111
Loggerhead still generates URLs using revision and file ids for
41
114
- Many bugs were fixed:
43
116
- Loggerhead does not escape special characters when embedding a
44
117
revision ID in a URL (bug #88286)
46
- Improved robustness ines the face of ghosts.
119
- Improved robustness in the face of ghosts.
