- Merge the pqm changes back into trunk, after trunk was reverted to an old
8
revision. (John Arbash Meinel, #716152)

26
- Support FastCGI, SCGI and AJP using flup. (Denis Martinez)
28

31

local location. (Reported by Tres Seaver.) (Matt Nordhoff)

55
- Leading blank lines in commit messages no longer result in an
56
empty summary. (Colin Watson)

72
from the server.webpath option. (neror, #260547)
74
- The revision page defaults to unified style again, and can
75
convert to a side-by-side view using JavaScript. (Michael Hudson)
77
- Clean up and improve performance of the annotate view. (Michael
80
- Finish converting JavaScript from MooTools to YUI 3. (Michael
83

97

100
other funny characters. (Peter Bui)
102

108
- Fix annotate error caused by Pygments stripping trailing
109

111
- Loggerhead can be installed as a Bazaar plugin and run by
112
'bzr serve --http'. (Martin Pool)
114
- Load parts of the changelog and revision pages via XMLHttpRequest

136

142
- Replace homebrew memory profiling code with Dozer. (Paul Hummer)
144
- Use the branch's public_branch as the default suggested URL to
145
branch from (Matt Nordhoff, #369767)
147

178
passed. (Michael Hudson, #388730)
180
- http_serve config values are interpreted more forgivingly.
183
- When specifying a remote url to serve-branches, do not share
184
connections between threads. (Michael Hudson, #390972)
186

file change. (Guillermo Gonzalez)

236

238
- Remove the .py extension requiered by the Debian Policy.
241
- New startup script serve-branches will serve Loggerhead without
242
the need of configuration, and allow you to browse through directories
243
and branches. (Michael Hudson)
245
- Loggerhead is no longer a TurboGears application, but rather a
246
WSGI application built using Paste (see http://wsgi.org/ and
247
http://pythonpaste.org/ for more about WSGI and Paste).
249
- URLs now use revision numbers instead of revision ids (Martin Albisetti)
251
- The scripts no longer insist on Python 2.4 -- loggerhead works
254
- Bazaar as of version 1.5 has improved in performance enough that
255
the revision cache no longer gave any noticeable benefit, so it
256
was removed (the files-changed cache is still useful).
258
- The templates were rewritten in Zope's TAL markup, powered by
259
the simpleTAL library -- improving both the performance and
260
memory consumption of rendering by a factor of around 3 for
261
large pages over the old Kid templates.
263
- Loggerhead's poorly performing text index was disabled. bzr-search
264
is now used if the plugin is installed and a text index is present
265
on the branch being viewed. (Martin Albisetti, Robert Collins).
267
- Loggerhead no longer depends on bzrlib functions deprecated in
268
Bazaar 1.5 and removed in 1.6 (Martin Albisetti).
270
- The daemonization code was made more regular, fixing bugs
271
#139161 ("Starting loggerhead process may not close its stdin
272
and stdout properly") and #211526 ("Codebrowse log directory has
273
unnecessarily permissive permissions")
275
- Some confusion about what the 'file_id' query argument means was
276
cleared up: filter_file_id now means "filter revisions to those
277
that affect this file" in all views and file_id means "examine
278
this file/directory" in the annotate and inventory views.
280
- Dates are present more compactly.
282
- The loggerhead.conf file can specify which network interface to
283
bind to (Mattias Eriksson)
288
- The changelog view was out of order when not using the revision
293
- Michael Hudson <michael.hudson@canonical.com> has mostly taken
294
over the maintenance of loggerhead.
296
- loggerhead now has a simple test suite -- use 'nosetests' in the
297
loggerhead directory to run it.
299
- The rendering performance of pages that display large amounts of
300
text was improved by a factor of 4 or so.
302
- loggerhead no longer caches the text of the diffs between
303
revisions. It rarely helped and wasted a lot of disk space.
305
- The layout of most pages was made more "tight" to waste less
306
screen real estate, and some other UI improvements (Kent
309
- Much dead code was removed.
311
- Loggerhead now computes the files changed between revisions only
312
when it needs to know this. This is a fairly expensive
313
operation in Bazaar, and doing it less massively improves
314
performance and memory usage in some situations.
316
- Loggerhead now takes a read lock on the branch being viewed for
317
the duration of each request, which improves performance
320
- Loggerhead no longer uses the corruption-prone Berkely DB-backed
321
shelve module for its caches, and rather (ab)uses a sqlite
324
- The creation of History objects is much faster for large
325
branches (Aaron Bentley).
327
- Allow the construction of URLs using revnos and file paths as
328
well as revids and fileids (bug #98826):
330
- For changes pages, append the newest revno to display to the
331
URL, like http://.../changes/<revno>
333
- For annotate pages, append the revno to display to the URL,
334
followed by the path, like http://.../annotate/<revno>/<path>
336
- For file listing and revision pages append the revno to
337
display to the URL, like http://.../files/<revno>
339
Loggerhead still generates URLs using revision and file ids for
342
- Many bugs were fixed:
344
- Loggerhead does not escape special characters when embedding a
345
revision ID in a URL (bug #88286)
347
- Improved robustness in the face of ghosts.
349
- Don't crash on displaying a commit with an empty message (bug
352
- codebrowse fails with infinite redirections (James Henstridge,
355
- Loggerhead fails to browse revisions that change binary files
356
(James Henstridge, bug #91686)
358
- Loggerhead atom feeds expose internal hostname (James
359
Henstridge, bug #93585)
361
- loggerhead don't like page break character (0x0C) in text
364
- codebrowse source listings don't contain line number anchors
367
- only serve up unescaped user content with "Content-Disposition:
370
- viewing the file listing consumes a lot memory (bug #116869)
372
- loggerhead can't handle empty branches (bug #119228)
374
- upgrading the format of a branch behind loggerhead could make
375
it fail for that branch (bug #118673)
377
- Error parsing non-ascii content (bug #117799)
379
- Loggerhead failed on whitespace-only commit messages.
381
- Links to diffs from within a revision do not work (bug
384
- UTF-8 patches served as ISO-8859-1, fixed by served bundles as
385
application/octet-stream (bug #121336)
387
- TurboGears was turning query arguments into unicode, and bzr
388
stopped accepting unicode revids (bug #175228)
394
- fix broken inventory page (oops!)
396
- fix a few rendering problems with kid and safari
402
4
- new feature to compare two revisions to each other
404
6
- inserted text in diffs is now blue instead of green
406
8
- fixed to start and stop as a daemon now (use "-f" to run in the
407
9
foreground), and all config is in loggerhead.conf (no need to mess with
410
12
- renamed show/hide javascript buttons to expand/collapse, and made them
413
15
- added an atom-feed link to each branch on the browse page [elliot
416
18
- auto-publish feature for multiple branches under a single folder (see
417
19
loggerhead.conf.example)
419
21
- added the ability to share cache files per-project instead of just
422
24
- added side-by-side diff display for the revision page (which is the
423
25
default), with a button to switch between side-by-side and unified diff
426
28
- made caching use file locking, and close cleanly on shutdown
428
30
- miscellaneous speed and page-size improvements
