|
|
|
5 |

|
|
|
6 |

New features in 0.3
|
|
|
10 |
|
|
|
11 |
* Major improvements to changelog browser. It is now good enough to
|
|
|
12 |
deprecate both hgk and hgview. Neither are bundled with the 0.3
|
|
|
13 |
binary installer, but both can be added by the user if they wish.
|
|
|
14 |
Support for external revision log viewers will be dropped in 0.4.
|
|
|
15 |
|
|
|
16 |
* The new changelog browser supports filtering by file pattern,
|
|
|
17 |
keywords, dates, and branches. It is capable of graphing both the
|
|
|
18 |
repository changelog and individual filelogs. Changeset coloring by
|
|
|
19 |
author is optional (tortoisehg.authorcolor). All changeset graphing
|
|
|
20 |
is done incrementally in batches (tortoisehg.graphlimit: 500)
|
|
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
* New DataMine application for searching history (hg grep) and
|
|
|
23 |
inspecting file histories (hg annotate). This new application is
|
|
|
24 |
tabbed to facilitate debugging sessions where search results and
|
|
|
25 |
annotations can be grouped together for easy cross-reference.
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
|
27 |
* New changeset browser, supports multiple parents intrinsically and
|
|
|
28 |
supports a number of file-revision features (view at revision, save
|
|
|
29 |
at revision, annotate at revision, revert to revision, etc). The
|
|
|
30 |
new changeset browser is also integrated into the changelog browser.
|
|
|
31 |
|
|
|
32 |
* Standardized window layouts. Close buttons have been moved to the
|
|
|
33 |
toolbar. Dialogs that use progress bars now use a standard status
|
|
|
34 |
bar/progress bar widget. Tooltips have been added.
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
* Hgtk wrapper application for launching TortoiseHg dialogs from the
|
|
|
37 |
command line
|
|
|
38 |
|
|
|
39 |
* Support for an external visual editor: tortoisehg.editor. Takes
|
|
|
40 |
precedence over ui.editor when viewing files with TortoiseHg
|
|
|
41 |
|
|
|
42 |
* Performance improvements in Mercurial itself (cset 0973501e5f4a)
|
|
|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
* Misc: The Synchronize dialog has been improved. The Web Serve
|
|
|
45 |
dialog no longer requires a subprocess to run the web server. The
|
|
|
46 |
configuration dialog has a number of bug fixes for the paths tab,
|
|
|
47 |
and now has separators in the drop-down boxes for the varying value
|
|
|
48 |
types (current, suggested, history). Http authentication has been
|
|
|
49 |
fixed. The hg integration library has seen major cleanups.

New features in 0.2
|
|
|
52 |
|
|
|
53 |
* Gtools has been integrated into TortoiseHg proper. It is no longer
|
|
|
54 |
bundled as a Mercurial extension. The graphlog extension is now enabled
|
|
|
55 |
again by default (only usable from the CLI, however).
|
|
|
56 |
|
|
|
57 |
* Context menu icons, application window icons. The context menu has been
|
|
|
58 |
simplified.
|
|
|
59 |
|
|
|
60 |
* The changelog browser has a number of new features (filters and context
|
|
|
61 |
menu options). The tag browser and changelog tagging features have been
|
|
|
62 |
merged into this tool.
|
|
|
63 |
|
|
|
64 |
* Hgview is now the default history viewer, hgk is being deprecated.
|
|
|
65 |
|
|
|
66 |
* An email dialog for interfacing with the patchbomb extension. It can be
|
|
|
67 |
reached from the synchronize dialog and from the changelog browser.
|
|
|
68 |
|
|
|
69 |
* A new configuration tool (replacing hg-config dialogs) that allows you
|
|
|
70 |
to configure TortoiseHg and Mercurial.
|
|
|
71 |
|
|
|
72 |
* Most dialogs now use HgThread and GtkUI to run hg commands. These
|
|
|
73 |
classes run the command in a background thread and provide GUI prompts
|
|
|
74 |
for when user interaction is necessary (http web auth, etc). For some
|
|
|
75 |
commands, it also provides a progress bar.
|
|
|
76 |
|
|
|
77 |
* A preview of the new Mercurial merge back end. The python hgmerge.py
|
|
|
78 |
script is being integrated into Mercurial, and this installer has a
|
|
|
79 |
preview of how that will work. You need to unset any ui.merge in your
|
|
|
80 |
Mercurial.ini file in order for it to work properly. If you don't
|
|
|
81 |
configure anything it will use simplemerge to automatically perform
|
|
|
82 |
merges. If conflicts are found it falls back to kdiff3 to resolve
|
|
|
83 |
them interactively.
|
|
|
84 |
|
|
|
85 |
* Slight improvement on speed of overlay icons display.
|
|
|
86 |
|
|
|
87 |
* A new 'about' dialog.
|
|
|

Bugs fixed in 0.2
|
|
|
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
* [SF Bug #1851395] Overlay icons and context menus are no longer
|
|
|
92 |
restricted to MS-Explorer. So other file managers, such as Total
|
|
|
93 |
Commander, should be supported.
|
|
|
94 |
|
|
|
95 |
* [SF Bug #1844722] Users can now create repositories inside repository
|
|
|
96 |
via the context menu.
