IMPORTANT BUGFIXES * Fix for a problem with rmdir patches when there are non-managed files left in the working copy of the directory so it can't really be removed. (Eric Kow)
NEW FEATURES * Pull and Push with ssh can use the multiplex feature if it is supported by ssh, to send several patches over a single connection. (Eric Kow) * The Send command can save, reuse and delete the patch bundle description in a logfile. (Zachary P. Landau) * New option --diff-command overrides the default external program diff. (Eric Cow) * The --external-merger option performs more advanced argument substitution so it is easier to use with Windows. (Daan Leijen) * The --repodir flag works with more commands. (Eric Kow) * New short options: -f for --force and -i for --interactive. (Zooko and Zachary P. Landau) BUGFIXES * Fix crash when using Changes --interactive with the --patch or --match options. (Zachary P. Landau) * Correctly detect if stdout is a pipe; accidently broken in 1.0.6. (David Roundy) * Don't print message about posthooks exit status, which confused scripts trying to parse stdout. Verbose mode turns the massages back on. (Jason Dagit) OTHER CHANGES * Darcs internal directory for the cash of all managed files, the pristine tree, is renamed from "_darcs/current" to "_darcs/pristine". Older versions of darcs has looked for "pristine" since version 1.0.2, but external programs examining darcs repositories might not expect this renaming and fail on repositories created with 1.0.7. Darcs will, of course, continue to look for "current" to be backward compatible with older repositories. (Juliusz Chroboczek) * The --interactive mode of Changes has changed slightly to behave more like the other dialogues. It accepts 'y' and 'n' as answers, and exits automatically after the last question. (Zachary P. Landau) * Optimization for external merger tools: don't create temporary copies of the repository unless there is for sure some conflict to resolve. (Edwin Thomson) * The GUI has been shaken alive by Eric Kow, but it is still not quite fully operating and probably not fit for common use. * New test selection mechanism for darcs developers; list tests of interest in tests/tests_to_run and 'make test' finish quicker. (Eric Kow) * Eric Kow, Dave Love and Juliusz Chroboczek made various improvements to the source code and manual.
