What's changed in loggerhead?
2
=============================
7
- Show svn/git/hg revision ids in loggerhead revision view.
10
- Fix .bzr/smart access to branches in shared repos. (You also need

to branch them. Addresses bug #240577. (Jonathan Lange)
26
- Leading blank lines in commit messages no longer result in an
27
empty summary. (Colin Watson)
29

30
python-pygments. Partially addresses bug #306631. (Peter Bui)
32

33
annotate and changelog views. Addresses bug #273688. (Peter
36

37
paste.deploy installed. (Michael Hudson)
39
- Loggerhead should now handle file and directory names that need
40
URL escaping without crashing.
42
- The start-loggerhead script properly sets the wsgi.url_scheme
43
from the server.webpath option. (neror, #260547)
45
- The revision page defaults to unified style again, and can
46
convert to a side-by-side view using JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)
48

82
- Loggerhead can be installed as a Bazaar plugin and run by
83
'bzr serve --http'. (Martin Pool)
85
- Load parts of the changelog and revision pages via XMLHttpRequest
86

113
- Replace homebrew memory profiling code with Dozer. (Paul Hummer)
115
- Use the branch's public_branch as the default suggested URL to
116
branch from (Matt Nordhoff, #369767)
118
- Fix a file descriptor leak (Matt Nordhoff, #370845)

149
passed. (Michael Hudson, #388730)
151
- http_serve config values are interpreted more forgivingly.
154
- When specifying a remote url to serve-branches, do not share
155
connections between threads. (Michael Hudson, #390972)
157
- http_serve values from locations.conf are now applied to
158
non-branch .bzr data (e.g shared repositories). (Michael Hudson)
160
- tags are now displayed. (Cris Boylan, Alexandre Garnier, Michael
163
- Display Loggerhead's version number at the bottom of the page, and

165
its dependencies. (Matt Nordhoff, #370155)
171

207
- Added COPYING file and clarified copyright headers (John Arbash Meinel)
209
- Remove the .py extension requiered by the Debian Policy.
212
- New startup script serve-branches will serve Loggerhead without
213
the need of configuration, and allow you to browse through directories
214
and branches. (Michael Hudson)
216
- Loggerhead is no longer a TurboGears application, but rather a
217
WSGI application built using Paste (see http://wsgi.org/ and
218
http://pythonpaste.org/ for more about WSGI and Paste).
220
- URLs now use revision numbers instead of revision ids (Martin Albisetti)
222
- The scripts no longer insist on Python 2.4 -- loggerhead works
225
- Bazaar as of version 1.5 has improved in performance enough that
226
the revision cache no longer gave any noticeable benefit, so it
227
was removed (the files-changed cache is still useful).
229
- The templates were rewritten in Zope's TAL markup, powered by
230
the simpleTAL library -- improving both the performance and
231
memory consumption of rendering by a factor of around 3 for
232
large pages over the old Kid templates.
234
- Loggerhead's poorly performing text index was disabled. bzr-search
235
is now used if the plugin is installed and a text index is present
236
on the branch being viewed. (Martin Albisetti, Robert Collins).
238
- Loggerhead no longer depends on bzrlib functions deprecated in
239
Bazaar 1.5 and removed in 1.6 (Martin Albisetti).
241
- The daemonization code was made more regular, fixing bugs
242
#139161 ("Starting loggerhead process may not close its stdin
243
and stdout properly") and #211526 ("Codebrowse log directory has
244
unnecessarily permissive permissions")
246
- Some confusion about what the 'file_id' query argument means was
247
cleared up: filter_file_id now means "filter revisions to those
248
that affect this file" in all views and file_id means "examine
249
this file/directory" in the annotate and inventory views.
251
- Dates are present more compactly.
253
- The loggerhead.conf file can specify which network interface to
254
bind to (Mattias Eriksson)
259
- The changelog view was out of order when not using the revision
264
- Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@canonical.com> has mostly taken
265
over the maintenance of loggerhead.
267
- loggerhead now has a simple test suite -- use 'nosetests' in the
268
loggerhead directory to run it.
270
- The rendering performance of pages that display large amounts of
271
text was improved by a factor of 4 or so.
273
- loggerhead no longer caches the text of the diffs between
274
revisions. It rarely helped and wasted a lot of disk space.
276
- The layout of most pages was made more "tight" to waste less
277
screen real estate, and some other UI improvements (Kent
280
- Much dead code was removed.
282
- Loggerhead now computes the files changed between revisions only
283
when it needs to know this. This is a fairly expensive
284
operation in Bazaar, and doing it less massively improves
285
performance and memory usage in some situations.
287
- Loggerhead now takes a read lock on the branch being viewed for
288
the duration of each request, which improves performance
291
- Loggerhead no longer uses the corruption-prone Berkely DB-backed
292
shelve module for its caches, and rather (ab)uses a sqlite
295
- The creation of History objects is much faster for large
296
branches (Aaron Bentley).
298
- Allow the construction of URLs using revnos and file paths as
299
well as revids and fileids (bug #98826):
301
- For changes pages, append the newest revno to display to the
302
URL, like http://.../changes/<revno>
304
- For annotate pages, append the revno to display to the URL,
305
followed by the path, like http://.../annotate/<revno>/<path>
307
- For file listing and revision pages append the revno to
308
display to the URL, like http://.../files/<revno>
310
Loggerhead still generates URLs using revision and file ids for
313
- Many bugs were fixed:
315
- Loggerhead does not escape special characters when embedding a
316
revision ID in a URL (bug #88286)
318
- Improved robustness in the face of ghosts.
320
- Don't crash on displaying a commit with an empty message (bug
323
- codebrowse fails with infinite redirections (James Henstridge,
326
- Loggerhead fails to browse revisions that change binary files
327
(James Henstridge, bug #91686)
329
- Loggerhead atom feeds expose internal hostname (James
330
Henstridge, bug #93585)
332
- loggerhead don't like page break character (0x0C) in text
335
- codebrowse source listings don't contain line number anchors
338
- only serve up unescaped user content with "Content-Disposition:
341
- viewing the file listing consumes a lot memory (bug #116869)
343
- loggerhead can't handle empty branches (bug #119228)
345
- upgrading the format of a branch behind loggerhead could make
346
it fail for that branch (bug #118673)
348
- Error parsing non-ascii content (bug #117799)
350
- Loggerhead failed on whitespace-only commit messages.
352
- Links to diffs from within a revision do not work (bug
355
- UTF-8 patches served as ISO-8859-1, fixed by served bundles as
356
application/octet-stream (bug #121336)
358
- TurboGears was turning query arguments into unicode, and bzr
359
stopped accepting unicode revids (bug #175228)
365
- fix broken inventory page (oops!)
367
- fix a few rendering problems with kid and safari
4
373
- new feature to compare two revisions to each other
6
375
- inserted text in diffs is now blue instead of green
8
377
- fixed to start and stop as a daemon now (use "-f" to run in the
9
378
foreground), and all config is in loggerhead.conf (no need to mess with
12
381
- renamed show/hide javascript buttons to expand/collapse, and made them
15
384
- added an atom-feed link to each branch on the browse page [elliot
18
387
- auto-publish feature for multiple branches under a single folder (see
19
388
loggerhead.conf.example)
21
390
- added the ability to share cache files per-project instead of just
24
393
- added side-by-side diff display for the revision page (which is the
25
394
default), with a button to switch between side-by-side and unified diff
28
397
- made caching use file locking, and close cleanly on shutdown
30
399
- miscellaneous speed and page-size improvements
