=============================
7
- Add bug links in revision informations (Alexandre Garnier, #314052)
9
- Make sure that binary files aren't annotated. (Martin Albisetti,
12
- Loggerhead now serves bzr branches over HTTP and exposes the URL
13
to branch them. Addresses bug #240577. (Jonathan Lange)
15
- Leading blank lines in commit messages no longer result in an
16
empty summary. (Colin Watson)
18
- Added optional syntax highlighting to annotate view using
19
python-pygments. Partially addresses bug #306631. (Peter Bui)
21
- Convert newlines in commit messages to HTML line breaks for
22
annotate and changelog views. Addresses bug #273688. (Peter
25
- serve-branches now errors if run behind a proxy without
26
paste.deploy installed. (Michael Hudson)
28
- Loggerhead should now handle file and directory names that need
29
URL escaping without crashing.
31
- The start-loggerhead script properly sets the wsgi.url_scheme
32
from the server.webpath option. (neror, #260547)
34
- The revision page defaults to unified style again, and can
35
convert to a side-by-side view using JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)
37
- Clean up and improve performance of the annotate view. (Michael
40
- Finish converting JavaScript from MooTools to YUI 3. (Michael
43
- Improve compatibility with IE 6. (Michael Hudson)
45

46
empty summary. (Colin Watson)
48
- Clip long lines in side-by-side diff view. (Michael Hudson,
51

52
and "newer" respectively. (Michael Hudson, #297930)
54
- The annotate view now contains line number anchors. (Michael
57

60
other funny characters. (Peter Bui)

68
- Fix annotate error caused by Pygments stripping trailing
69
whitespace. (Michael Hudson, #338762)
71
- Loggerhead can be installed as a Bazaar plugin and run by
72
'bzr serve --http'. (Martin Pool)
74
- Load parts of the changelog and revision pages via XMLHttpRequest
75
to improve performance. This adds a dependency on simplejson or
76
json. Partially addresses bug #253950. (Michael Hudson)
78
- Various improvements to the animation JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)
80
- Fix HTML content of source files being displayed unescaped when
81

88
- Fix certain race conditions for loading bzr-search. (Robert
91

144
script. (Martin Albisetti)

149
- Added --reload options to restart the application when a python
150
file change. (Guillermo Gonzalez)
152
- Added error handling middleware. (Guillermo Gonzalez)
154
- Fix bug #243415 ("Tracebacks go to console but not log
155

175
- New startup script serve-branches will serve Loggerhead without
176
the need of configuration, and allow you to browse through directories
177

179
- Loggerhead is no longer a TurboGears application, but rather a
180
WSGI application built using Paste (see http://wsgi.org/ and
181
http://pythonpaste.org/ for more about WSGI and Paste).
183
- URLs now use revision numbers instead of revision ids (Martin Albisetti)
185
- The scripts no longer insist on Python 2.4 -- loggerhead works
188
- Bazaar as of version 1.5 has improved in performance enough that
189
the revision cache no longer gave any noticeable benefit, so it
190
was removed (the files-changed cache is still useful).
192
- The templates were rewritten in Zope's TAL markup, powered by
193
the simpleTAL library -- improving both the performance and
194
memory consumption of rendering by a factor of around 3 for
195
large pages over the old Kid templates.
197
- Loggerhead's poorly performing text index was disabled. bzr-search
198
is now used if the plugin is installed and a text index is present
199
on the branch being viewed. (Martin Albisetti, Robert Collins).
201
- Loggerhead no longer depends on bzrlib functions deprecated in
202
Bazaar 1.5 and removed in 1.6 (Martin Albisetti).
204
- The daemonization code was made more regular, fixing bugs
205
#139161 ("Starting loggerhead process may not close its stdin
206
and stdout properly") and #211526 ("Codebrowse log directory has
207
unnecessarily permissive permissions")
209
- Some confusion about what the 'file_id' query argument means was
210
cleared up: filter_file_id now means "filter revisions to those
211
that affect this file" in all views and file_id means "examine
212
this file/directory" in the annotate and inventory views.
214
- Dates are present more compactly.
216
- The loggerhead.conf file can specify which network interface to
217
bind to (Mattias Eriksson)
222
- The changelog view was out of order when not using the revision
227
- Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@canonical.com> has mostly taken
228
over the maintenance of loggerhead.
230
- loggerhead now has a simple test suite -- use 'nosetests' in the
231
loggerhead directory to run it.
233
- The rendering performance of pages that display large amounts of
234
text was improved by a factor of 4 or so.
236
- loggerhead no longer caches the text of the diffs between
237
revisions. It rarely helped and wasted a lot of disk space.
239
- The layout of most pages was made more "tight" to waste less
240
screen real estate, and some other UI improvements (Kent
243
- Much dead code was removed.
245
- Loggerhead now computes the files changed between revisions only
246
when it needs to know this. This is a fairly expensive
247
operation in Bazaar, and doing it less massively improves
248
performance and memory usage in some situations.
250
- Loggerhead now takes a read lock on the branch being viewed for
251
the duration of each request, which improves performance
254
- Loggerhead no longer uses the corruption-prone Berkely DB-backed
255
shelve module for its caches, and rather (ab)uses a sqlite
258
- The creation of History objects is much faster for large
259
branches (Aaron Bentley).
261
- Allow the construction of URLs using revnos and file paths as
262
well as revids and fileids (bug #98826):
264
- For changes pages, append the newest revno to display to the
265
URL, like http://.../changes/<revno>
267
- For annotate pages, append the revno to display to the URL,
268
followed by the path, like http://.../annotate/<revno>/<path>
270
- For file listing and revision pages append the revno to
271
display to the URL, like http://.../files/<revno>
273
Loggerhead still generates URLs using revision and file ids for
276
- Many bugs were fixed:
278
- Loggerhead does not escape special characters when embedding a
279
revision ID in a URL (bug #88286)
281
- Improved robustness in the face of ghosts.
283
- Don't crash on displaying a commit with an empty message (bug
286
- codebrowse fails with infinite redirections (James Henstridge,
289
- Loggerhead fails to browse revisions that change binary files
290
(James Henstridge, bug #91686)
292
- Loggerhead atom feeds expose internal hostname (James
293
Henstridge, bug #93585)
295
- loggerhead don't like page break character (0x0C) in text
298
- codebrowse source listings don't contain line number anchors
301
- only serve up unescaped user content with "Content-Disposition:
304
- viewing the file listing consumes a lot memory (bug #116869)
306
- loggerhead can't handle empty branches (bug #119228)
308
- upgrading the format of a branch behind loggerhead could make
309
it fail for that branch (bug #118673)
311
- Error parsing non-ascii content (bug #117799)
313
- Loggerhead failed on whitespace-only commit messages.
315
- Links to diffs from within a revision do not work (bug
318
- UTF-8 patches served as ISO-8859-1, fixed by served bundles as
319
application/octet-stream (bug #121336)
321
- TurboGears was turning query arguments into unicode, and bzr
322
stopped accepting unicode revids (bug #175228)
8
328
- fix broken inventory page (oops!)
10
330
- fix a few rendering problems with kid and safari
16
336
- new feature to compare two revisions to each other
18
338
- inserted text in diffs is now blue instead of green
20
340
- fixed to start and stop as a daemon now (use "-f" to run in the
21
341
foreground), and all config is in loggerhead.conf (no need to mess with
24
344
- renamed show/hide javascript buttons to expand/collapse, and made them
27
347
- added an atom-feed link to each branch on the browse page [elliot
30
350
- auto-publish feature for multiple branches under a single folder (see
31
351
loggerhead.conf.example)
33
353
- added the ability to share cache files per-project instead of just
36
356
- added side-by-side diff display for the revision page (which is the
37
357
default), with a button to switch between side-by-side and unified diff
40
360
- made caching use file locking, and close cleanly on shutdown
42
362
- miscellaneous speed and page-size improvements
