What's changed in loggerhead?
2
=============================
7
- Add ``bzr load-test-loggerhead`` as a way to make sure loggerhead can
8
handle concurrent requests, etc. Scripts can be written that spawn
9
multiple threads, and issue concurrent requests.
12
- If we get a HEAD request, there is no reason to expand the template, we
13
shouldn't be returning body content anyway.
14
(John Arbash Meinel, #716201, #716217)
16
- Merge the pqm changes back into trunk, after trunk was reverted to an old
17
revision. (John Arbash Meinel, #716152)
19
- Remove ``start-loggerhead`` and ``stop-loggerhead`` which were already
20
deprecated. (John Arbash Meinel)
22
- Redirect ``/files/file.txt`` to ``/view/file.txt`` and ``/view/dir`` to
23
``/files/dir``. (Jasper St. Pierre, #569358)
25
- The json module is no longer claimed to be supported as alternative for
26
simplejson. (Jelmer Vernooij, #586611)

- Syntax highlighting is no longer applied for files greater than 512K,
34
reducing codebrowse.launchpad.net overloading.

(Max Kanat-Alexander, #513044)
37
- Documentation added in the docs directory. README simplified
38
accordingly. (Tres Seaver).
40
- Show svn/git/hg revision ids in loggerhead revision view.
43
- Fix .bzr/smart access to branches in shared repos. (You also need

46
- Support FastCGI, SCGI and AJP using flup. (Denis Martinez)
48
- Repository.get_revision_inventory() was removed in bzr 2.2; use
49
Repository.get_inventory() instead. (Matt Nordhoff, #528194)
51
- Ignore readonly+ prefix when checking if Loggerhead is serving a
52
local location. (Reported by Tres Seaver.) (Matt Nordhoff)

73
to branch them. Addresses bug #240577. (Jonathan Lange)
75
- Leading blank lines in commit messages no longer result in an
76
empty summary. (Colin Watson)
78
- Added optional syntax highlighting to annotate view using
79
python-pygments. Partially addresses bug #306631. (Peter Bui)
81
- Convert newlines in commit messages to HTML line breaks for
82
annotate and changelog views. Addresses bug #273688. (Peter
85
- serve-branches now errors if run behind a proxy without
86
paste.deploy installed. (Michael Hudson)
88
- Loggerhead should now handle file and directory names that need
89
URL escaping without crashing.
91
- The start-loggerhead script properly sets the wsgi.url_scheme
92
from the server.webpath option. (neror, #260547)
94
- The revision page defaults to unified style again, and can
95
convert to a side-by-side view using JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)
97
- Clean up and improve performance of the annotate view. (Michael
100
- Finish converting JavaScript from MooTools to YUI 3. (Michael
103

117
- Fix inventory pages using "//" in links. (Michael Hudson, #329668)

120
other funny characters. (Peter Bui)
122

128
- Fix annotate error caused by Pygments stripping trailing
129
whitespace. (Michael Hudson, #338762)
131
- Loggerhead can be installed as a Bazaar plugin and run by
132
'bzr serve --http'. (Martin Pool)
134
- Load parts of the changelog and revision pages via XMLHttpRequest
135

json. Partially addresses bug #253950. (Michael Hudson)
138
- Various improvements to the animation JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)

156
memory usage improvements. (Michael Hudson)
158

162
- Replace homebrew memory profiling code with Dozer. (Paul Hummer)
164
- Use the branch's public_branch as the default suggested URL to
165
branch from (Matt Nordhoff, #369767)
167
- Fix a file descriptor leak (Matt Nordhoff, #370845)

195
(Jelmer Vernooij, #306853)

198
passed. (Michael Hudson, #388730)
200
- http_serve config values are interpreted more forgivingly.
203
- When specifying a remote url to serve-branches, do not share
204
connections between threads. (Michael Hudson, #390972)
206
- http_serve values from locations.conf are now applied to
207
non-branch .bzr data (e.g shared repositories). (Michael Hudson)
209
- tags are now displayed. (Cris Boylan, Alexandre Garnier, Michael
212
- Display Loggerhead's version number at the bottom of the page, and
213
add a <meta> generator tag also including the version numbers of
214
its dependencies. (Matt Nordhoff, #370155)
220
- Add startup deamon script for Linux (Marius Kruger)
222

258
- Remove the .py extension requiered by the Debian Policy.
261
- New startup script serve-branches will serve Loggerhead without
262
the need of configuration, and allow you to browse through directories
263
and branches. (Michael Hudson)
265
- Loggerhead is no longer a TurboGears application, but rather a
266
WSGI application built using Paste (see http://wsgi.org/ and
267
http://pythonpaste.org/ for more about WSGI and Paste).
269
- URLs now use revision numbers instead of revision ids (Martin Albisetti)
271
- The scripts no longer insist on Python 2.4 -- loggerhead works
274
- Bazaar as of version 1.5 has improved in performance enough that
275
the revision cache no longer gave any noticeable benefit, so it
276
was removed (the files-changed cache is still useful).
278
- The templates were rewritten in Zope's TAL markup, powered by
279
the simpleTAL library -- improving both the performance and
280
memory consumption of rendering by a factor of around 3 for
281
large pages over the old Kid templates.
283
- Loggerhead's poorly performing text index was disabled. bzr-search
284
is now used if the plugin is installed and a text index is present
285
on the branch being viewed. (Martin Albisetti, Robert Collins).
287
- Loggerhead no longer depends on bzrlib functions deprecated in
288
Bazaar 1.5 and removed in 1.6 (Martin Albisetti).
290
- The daemonization code was made more regular, fixing bugs
291
#139161 ("Starting loggerhead process may not close its stdin
292
and stdout properly") and #211526 ("Codebrowse log directory has
293
unnecessarily permissive permissions")
295
- Some confusion about what the 'file_id' query argument means was
296
cleared up: filter_file_id now means "filter revisions to those
297
that affect this file" in all views and file_id means "examine
298
this file/directory" in the annotate and inventory views.
300
- Dates are present more compactly.
302
- The loggerhead.conf file can specify which network interface to
303
bind to (Mattias Eriksson)
308
- The changelog view was out of order when not using the revision
313
- Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@canonical.com> has mostly taken
314
over the maintenance of loggerhead.
316
- loggerhead now has a simple test suite -- use 'nosetests' in the
317
loggerhead directory to run it.
319
- The rendering performance of pages that display large amounts of
320
text was improved by a factor of 4 or so.
322
- loggerhead no longer caches the text of the diffs between
323
revisions. It rarely helped and wasted a lot of disk space.
325
- The layout of most pages was made more "tight" to waste less
326
screen real estate, and some other UI improvements (Kent
329
- Much dead code was removed.
331
- Loggerhead now computes the files changed between revisions only
332
when it needs to know this. This is a fairly expensive
333
operation in Bazaar, and doing it less massively improves
334
performance and memory usage in some situations.
336
- Loggerhead now takes a read lock on the branch being viewed for
337
the duration of each request, which improves performance
340
- Loggerhead no longer uses the corruption-prone Berkely DB-backed
341
shelve module for its caches, and rather (ab)uses a sqlite
344
- The creation of History objects is much faster for large
345
branches (Aaron Bentley).
347
- Allow the construction of URLs using revnos and file paths as
348
well as revids and fileids (bug #98826):
350
- For changes pages, append the newest revno to display to the
351
URL, like http://.../changes/<revno>
353
- For annotate pages, append the revno to display to the URL,
354
followed by the path, like http://.../annotate/<revno>/<path>
356
- For file listing and revision pages append the revno to
357
display to the URL, like http://.../files/<revno>
359
Loggerhead still generates URLs using revision and file ids for
362
- Many bugs were fixed:
364
- Loggerhead does not escape special characters when embedding a
365
revision ID in a URL (bug #88286)
367
- Improved robustness in the face of ghosts.
369
- Don't crash on displaying a commit with an empty message (bug
372
- codebrowse fails with infinite redirections (James Henstridge,
375
- Loggerhead fails to browse revisions that change binary files
376
(James Henstridge, bug #91686)
378
- Loggerhead atom feeds expose internal hostname (James
379
Henstridge, bug #93585)
381
- loggerhead don't like page break character (0x0C) in text
384
- codebrowse source listings don't contain line number anchors
387
- only serve up unescaped user content with "Content-Disposition:
390
- viewing the file listing consumes a lot memory (bug #116869)
392
- loggerhead can't handle empty branches (bug #119228)
394
- upgrading the format of a branch behind loggerhead could make
395
it fail for that branch (bug #118673)
397
- Error parsing non-ascii content (bug #117799)
399
- Loggerhead failed on whitespace-only commit messages.
401
- Links to diffs from within a revision do not work (bug
404
- UTF-8 patches served as ISO-8859-1, fixed by served bundles as
405
application/octet-stream (bug #121336)
407
- TurboGears was turning query arguments into unicode, and bzr
408
stopped accepting unicode revids (bug #175228)
414
- fix broken inventory page (oops!)
416
- fix a few rendering problems with kid and safari
422
- new feature to compare two revisions to each other
424
- inserted text in diffs is now blue instead of green
426
- fixed to start and stop as a daemon now (use "-f" to run in the
427
foreground), and all config is in loggerhead.conf (no need to mess with
430
- renamed show/hide javascript buttons to expand/collapse, and made them
433
- added an atom-feed link to each branch on the browse page [elliot
436
- auto-publish feature for multiple branches under a single folder (see
437
loggerhead.conf.example)
439
- added the ability to share cache files per-project instead of just
442
- added side-by-side diff display for the revision page (which is the
443
default), with a button to switch between side-by-side and unified diff
446
- made caching use file locking, and close cleanly on shutdown
448
- miscellaneous speed and page-size improvements
