| Changes from 0.6 to 0.7: {{{ core greatly improved merge logic improved copy/rename support (still experimental) automatic binary file handling generic file filtering support support for user-defined hooks (aka triggers) support for local tags and finding branches with tags numerous performance improvements command line fewer long, confusing hashes to deal with new commands: clone, revert, incoming/outgoing, bundle/unbundle, grep, rename more powerful path handling with most commands improved push and pull support support for plug-in extensions much improved exception handling and debugging support many new command options and settings web interface more conformant and compatible HTML output built-in RSS feeds fast multiple keyword search easy to set up multiple repository interface configurable support for downloading tarballs and zip files improved configurability IPv6 support documentation improved built-in help and man pages a greatly expanded wiki tutorials in multiple languages portability full support for Windows, including hardlinking and file filtering should easily compile and install on any modern UNIX binary packages available for many systems extras powerful bash completion support Emacs integration updated hgk and more expanded test suite numerous bug fixes and cleanups }}} Upgrade notes: {{{ Mercurial 0.6c introduced a layout change that affects a small number of repositories. To avoid potential future name collisions, repositories containing directory names ending in ".i", ".d", or ".hg" (eg: etc/init.d/foo) need escaping. If you have a repository containing such directories, it can be updated with the following UNIX command: find .hg -type d -name "*.[di]" -exec echo mv {} {}.hg ";" As of 0.7, hardlink cloning is now supported on Windows with NTFS and ActiveState Python. Because old versions cannot properly determine the link count of hardlinked files, using old versions of Mercurial on a new repository containing hardlinks may be dangerous. }}} Changes from 0.6c to 0.7: {{{ core improved merge logic improved copy/rename support (still experimental) automatic binary file handling generic file filtering support various performance improvements command line new bundle/unbundle commands for exchanging native updates more natural support for remove, copy, and rename faster, more powerful log command new grep command for searching entire history support for plug-in extensions improved exception handling and debugging facilities hgweb optional downloading of tarballs and zip files Windows support hardlinking support newline conversion through file filtering contrib updated hgk }}} |
