What's changed in loggerhead?
2
=============================
7
- Fix .bzr/smart access to branches in shared repos. (You also need
8
a version of bzr with bug #348308 fixed.) (Andrew Bennetts)
14
- Add bug links in revision informations (Alexandre Garnier, #314052)
16
- Make sure that binary files aren't annotated. (Martin Albisetti,
19
- Loggerhead now serves bzr branches over HTTP and exposes the URL
20
to branch them. Addresses bug #240577. (Jonathan Lange)
22
- Leading blank lines in commit messages no longer result in an
23
empty summary. (Colin Watson)
25
- Added optional syntax highlighting to annotate view using
26
python-pygments. Partially addresses bug #306631. (Peter Bui)
28
- Convert newlines in commit messages to HTML line breaks for
29
annotate and changelog views. Addresses bug #273688. (Peter
32
- serve-branches now errors if run behind a proxy without
33
paste.deploy installed. (Michael Hudson)
35
- Loggerhead should now handle file and directory names that need
36
URL escaping without crashing.
38
- The start-loggerhead script properly sets the wsgi.url_scheme
39
from the server.webpath option. (neror, #260547)
41
- The revision page defaults to unified style again, and can
42
convert to a side-by-side view using JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)
44
- Clean up and improve performance of the annotate view. (Michael
47
- Finish converting JavaScript from MooTools to YUI 3. (Michael
50

53
empty summary. (Colin Watson)
55
- Clip long lines in side-by-side diff view. (Michael Hudson,
58

59
and "newer" respectively. (Michael Hudson, #297930)
61
- The annotate view now contains line number anchors. (Michael
64

78
- Loggerhead can be installed as a Bazaar plugin and run by
79
'bzr serve --http'. (Martin Pool)
81
- Load parts of the changelog and revision pages via XMLHttpRequest
82

103
memory usage improvements. (Michael Hudson)
105
- Add a --cache-dir option to serve-branches to choose where to
106

107
process. (Matt Nordhoff, #358322)
109
- Replace homebrew memory profiling code with Dozer. (Paul Hummer)
111
- Use the branch's public_branch as the default suggested URL to
112
branch from (Matt Nordhoff, #369767)
114
- Fix a file descriptor leak (Matt Nordhoff, #370845)

145
passed. (Michael Hudson, #388730)
147
- http_serve config values are interpreted more forgivingly.
150
- When specifying a remote url to serve-branches, do not share
151
connections between threads. (Michael Hudson, #390972)
153
- http_serve values from locations.conf are now applied to
154
non-branch .bzr data (e.g shared repositories). (Michael Hudson)
156
- tags are now displayed. (Cris Boylan, Alexandre Garnier, Michael
159
- Display Loggerhead's version number at the bottom of the page, and

161
its dependencies. (Matt Nordhoff, #370155)
167

203
- Added COPYING file and clarified copyright headers (John Arbash Meinel)
205
- Remove the .py extension requiered by the Debian Policy.
208
- New startup script serve-branches will serve Loggerhead without
209
the need of configuration, and allow you to browse through directories
210
and branches. (Michael Hudson)
212
- Loggerhead is no longer a TurboGears application, but rather a
213
WSGI application built using Paste (see http://wsgi.org/ and
214
http://pythonpaste.org/ for more about WSGI and Paste).
216
- URLs now use revision numbers instead of revision ids (Martin Albisetti)
218
- The scripts no longer insist on Python 2.4 -- loggerhead works
221
- Bazaar as of version 1.5 has improved in performance enough that
222
the revision cache no longer gave any noticeable benefit, so it
223
was removed (the files-changed cache is still useful).
225
- The templates were rewritten in Zope's TAL markup, powered by
226
the simpleTAL library -- improving both the performance and
227
memory consumption of rendering by a factor of around 3 for
228
large pages over the old Kid templates.
230
- Loggerhead's poorly performing text index was disabled. bzr-search
231
is now used if the plugin is installed and a text index is present
232
on the branch being viewed. (Martin Albisetti, Robert Collins).
234
- Loggerhead no longer depends on bzrlib functions deprecated in
235
Bazaar 1.5 and removed in 1.6 (Martin Albisetti).
237
- The daemonization code was made more regular, fixing bugs
238
#139161 ("Starting loggerhead process may not close its stdin
239
and stdout properly") and #211526 ("Codebrowse log directory has
240
unnecessarily permissive permissions")
242
- Some confusion about what the 'file_id' query argument means was
243
cleared up: filter_file_id now means "filter revisions to those
244
that affect this file" in all views and file_id means "examine
245
this file/directory" in the annotate and inventory views.
247
- Dates are present more compactly.
249
- The loggerhead.conf file can specify which network interface to
250
bind to (Mattias Eriksson)
255
- The changelog view was out of order when not using the revision
260
- Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@canonical.com> has mostly taken
261
over the maintenance of loggerhead.
263
- loggerhead now has a simple test suite -- use 'nosetests' in the
264
loggerhead directory to run it.
266
- The rendering performance of pages that display large amounts of
267
text was improved by a factor of 4 or so.
269
- loggerhead no longer caches the text of the diffs between
270
revisions. It rarely helped and wasted a lot of disk space.
272
- The layout of most pages was made more "tight" to waste less
273
screen real estate, and some other UI improvements (Kent
276
- Much dead code was removed.
278
- Loggerhead now computes the files changed between revisions only
279
when it needs to know this. This is a fairly expensive
280
operation in Bazaar, and doing it less massively improves
281
performance and memory usage in some situations.
283
- Loggerhead now takes a read lock on the branch being viewed for
284
the duration of each request, which improves performance
287
- Loggerhead no longer uses the corruption-prone Berkely DB-backed
288
shelve module for its caches, and rather (ab)uses a sqlite
291
- The creation of History objects is much faster for large
292
branches (Aaron Bentley).
294
- Allow the construction of URLs using revnos and file paths as
295
well as revids and fileids (bug #98826):
297
- For changes pages, append the newest revno to display to the
298
URL, like http://.../changes/<revno>
300
- For annotate pages, append the revno to display to the URL,
301
followed by the path, like http://.../annotate/<revno>/<path>
303
- For file listing and revision pages append the revno to
304
display to the URL, like http://.../files/<revno>
306
Loggerhead still generates URLs using revision and file ids for
309
- Many bugs were fixed:
311
- Loggerhead does not escape special characters when embedding a
312
revision ID in a URL (bug #88286)
314
- Improved robustness in the face of ghosts.
316
- Don't crash on displaying a commit with an empty message (bug
319
- codebrowse fails with infinite redirections (James Henstridge,
322
- Loggerhead fails to browse revisions that change binary files
323
(James Henstridge, bug #91686)
325
- Loggerhead atom feeds expose internal hostname (James
326
Henstridge, bug #93585)
328
- loggerhead don't like page break character (0x0C) in text
331
- codebrowse source listings don't contain line number anchors
334
- only serve up unescaped user content with "Content-Disposition:
337
- viewing the file listing consumes a lot memory (bug #116869)
339
- loggerhead can't handle empty branches (bug #119228)
341
- upgrading the format of a branch behind loggerhead could make
342
it fail for that branch (bug #118673)
344
- Error parsing non-ascii content (bug #117799)
346
- Loggerhead failed on whitespace-only commit messages.
348
- Links to diffs from within a revision do not work (bug
351
- UTF-8 patches served as ISO-8859-1, fixed by served bundles as
352
application/octet-stream (bug #121336)
354
- TurboGears was turning query arguments into unicode, and bzr
355
stopped accepting unicode revids (bug #175228)
361
- fix broken inventory page (oops!)
363
- fix a few rendering problems with kid and safari
369
- new feature to compare two revisions to each other
371
- inserted text in diffs is now blue instead of green
373
- fixed to start and stop as a daemon now (use "-f" to run in the
374
foreground), and all config is in loggerhead.conf (no need to mess with
377
- renamed show/hide javascript buttons to expand/collapse, and made them
380
- added an atom-feed link to each branch on the browse page [elliot
383
- auto-publish feature for multiple branches under a single folder (see
384
loggerhead.conf.example)
386
- added the ability to share cache files per-project instead of just
389
- added side-by-side diff display for the revision page (which is the
390
default), with a button to switch between side-by-side and unified diff
393
- made caching use file locking, and close cleanly on shutdown
395
- miscellaneous speed and page-size improvements
