3 * mdwn: Add a multimarkdown setup file option.
4 * If PERL5LIB is set to the libdir when building ikiwiki, calculate and
5 hardcode a proper 'use lib' statement anyway. This fixes a gotcha,
6 since PERL5LIB won't work once ikiwiki is running via a wrapper or as
8 * orphans: As a special case, the toplevel index page is never considered
10 * inline: Display a message if the 'pages' parameter is missing, before
11 it just expanded to nothing.
12 * git: Skip over signed-off-by and similar lines in commit messages
13 when generating recentchanges.

19 * amazon_s3: New plugin, which injects wiki pages into Amazon S3, allowing
20 ikiwiki to be used without a dedicated web server.
21 * aggregate: Add support for web-based triggering of aggregation
22 for people stuck on shared hosting without cron. (Sheesh.) Enabled
23 via the `aggregate_webtrigger` configuration optiom.
24 * Add pinger and pingee plugins, which allow setting up mirrors and branched
25 wikis that automatically ping one another to stay up to date.
26 * Optimised file statting code when scanning for modified pages;
27 cut the number of system calls in half. (Still room for improvement.)
28 * Fixes for behavior changes in perl 5.10's CGI that broke utf-8 support
29 in several interesting ways.

33 ikiwiki (2.45) unstable; urgency=low
35 * toc: Add the table of contents at sanitize time, rather than at format
36 time. This allows the toc to be displayed when previewing an edit. It also
37 avoids headers in the page template from showing up in the toc.
38 * Add PREFIX/bin to the hardcoded PATH within ikiwiki.
39 * Deal with different paths to perl when removing -T flag.
40 * Add missing de.po. Closes: #471540
41 * img: Support a title attribute, will be passed through to html.
43 * anonk: Add anonok_pagespec configuration setting that can be used to
44 allow anonymous users to edit only matching pages. Closes: #478892
45 * Fix ugly display when editing a page that has vanished.
46 * srcfile now has an optional second parameter to avoid it throwing an error
47 if the source file does not exist.
48 * git: Put -- before the filename when calling git rev-list to avoid
49 warning message when the file doesn't exist.
50 * Add a Bundle::IkiWiki and Bundle::IkiWiki::Extras to the source for use
51 with CPAN to install perl modules.
52 * Add a cpan directory containing a CPAN::MyConfig that can ease use of
53 CPAN to install in a home directory on shared hosting providers.
54 * With these changes, it's pretty easy to install onto nearlyfreespeech.net
55 and probably other shared hosting providers like dreamhost. Added
56 a page documenting the process for nearlyfreespeech.

62 * Bring back the svnrepo setup file option. This is needed for
63 recentchangediff to work with svn repos.
64 * Allow libtext-markdown-perl to satisfy dependencies, as a
65 an alternative to the markdown package.
66 * Correct a bug in pagespec matching, where a empty pagespec matched all
67 pages. This manifested as wikis with no locked pages treating them all as
68 locked. The bug was introduced in version 2.41.
69 * Medium urgency upload due to above fix.

88 * inline: Correct handling of urls relative to baseurl in feeds.

90 embedding the session id in the forms, and not allowing the forms to be
91 submitted if the embedded id does not match the session id. Closes: #475445

99 * Preprocessor directives generated by the shortcut plugin accept a `desc`
100 parameter that overrides the anchor text provided at shortcut definition
101 time. (Closes: #458126)
104 * The meta plugin now allows for the robots tag to be specified without the
105 risk of it being scrubbed.
106 * Let meta.openid set X-XRDS-Location header
107 * Make makerepo set the Git merge remote.
108 branch.master.remote previously used to default to origin, which has
109 recently been changed; it now needs to be set explicitly, which this
110 patch does. Closes: #470517
111 * meta: Also generate openid2 headers.
112 * Handle SimpleXMLRPCDispatcher arg count change in python 2.5
113 * Provide XML-RPC proxy abstraction for Python plugins.
116 * Add recentchangesdiff plugin that adds diffs to the recentchanges feeds.
117 * rcs_diff is a new function that rcs modules should implement.
118 * Implemented rcs_diff for git, svn, and tla (tla version untested).
119 Mercurial and monotone still todo.
120 * Support Text::Markdown::markdown, which is the spelling used by
121 version 1.0.16 of Text::Markdown.
122 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
123 * Fix example exclude regexp. Closes: #469691
124 * Remove locking code in git rcs_commit. I'm not sure if this was ever
125 correct, and it's certianly not correct now, since the wiki is locked
126 before rcs_commit is ever called, and should not be unlocked by
128 * monotone: Require version 0.38 or greater, and stop using the mtnmergerc
130 * Use forcebaseurl to make page previews be displayed with the html base
131 set to the destination page. This avoids need for hacks to munge the urls
132 in preview mode, which fixes several bugs.
133 * Several destpage fixes in plugins.
134 * Use absolute url for feedurl when filling out the feed templates.
136 * Fix expiry of old recentchanges changeset pages.
137 * French translation update. Closes: #471010
138 * external: Fix support of XML::RPC::fault.
139 * htmltidy: Pass --markup yes, in case tidy's config file disabled it.
140 * external: Add getargv and setargv methods to allow access to ikiwiki's
142 * Correct bug in encoding of %pagestate keys, fixes edittemplate.
143 * Detect invalid pagespecs and do not merge them in add_depends,
144 as that can result in a broken merged pagespec that matches nothing.
145 * Record new pages in %pagesources temporarily when previewing so that
146 things that need to know the page source or type can query it from there.
147 Fixes previewing of tables when creating a new page.
148 * German translation update. Closes: #471540
149 * Time::Duration is no longer used, remove from docs and recommends.
150 * Store userinfo in network byte order for easy portability.
151 (Old files will be automatically converted.)
152 * Close meta tag for redir properly.
153 * smiley: Detect smileys inside pre and code tags, and do not expand.
154 * inline: Crazy optimisation to work around slow markdown.
155 * Precompile pagespecs, about 10% overall speedup.
156 * Changed to a binary index file, written using Storable, for speed.
157 * external: Work around XML RPC's lack of support for null by passing
158 a special sentinal value.
159 * inline: Allow the "feedshow" parameter to take values greater than the
161 * Added a hardlink option in the setup file, useful if the source and
162 dest are on the same filesystem and the wiki includes large media files,
163 which would normally be copied, wasting time and space.

167 ikiwiki (2.40) unstable; urgency=low
170 * Add new preprocessor directive syntax¸ using a '!' prefix. Add a
171 prefix_directives option to the setup file to turn this syntax on;
172 currently defaults to false, for backward compatibility. Support
173 optional '!' prefix even with prefix_directives off, and use that in
174 the underlay to support either setting of prefix_directives. Add NEWS
175 entry with migration information.
178 * Danish translation update from Jonas Smedegaard. Closes: #465152
179 * Generate XML RPC messages with the encoding set to utf-8 instead
180 of XML::RPC's default of us-ascii. Allows interoperation with
181 python's xmlrpc library, which threw invalid encoding exceptions and
182 caused the rst plugin to hang.
183 * Add the linkify and scan hooks. These hooks can be used to implement
184 custom, first-class types of wikilinks.
185 * Move standard wikilink implementation to a new link plugin, which
186 will of course be enabled by default.
187 * camelcase: Convert to use new linkify and scan hooks rather than the old
189 * Setting NOTAINT=1 had no effect when building ikiwiki itself, fix this.
190 * Depend on HTML::Scrubber, since the scrubber is enabled by default and
191 dies if its can't be loaded.
192 * The search plugin needs to override <base> to point to the directory
193 containing ikiwiki.cgi, but this should not change the urls to the style
194 sheets etc. Add a new forcebareurl parameter to misctemplate to allow
196 * Preview limits the page dropdown to what's selected previously
197 (as preserving the full list across preview would be tricky). Userdirs
198 were still being offered as an option there, remove them.
199 * Fix a bug where user A created a page concurrently with user B, and
200 when B previewed it would redirect B to A's new page, losing B's work.
201 Instead, don't redirect and let conflict handling resolve it.
202 * monotone: Add code to default mergerc file to run
203 _MTN/ikiwiki-netsync-hook when a commit is merged in from the net.
204 * tla: Remove call to escapeHTML when constructing recentchanges message;
205 the html is escaped at a different level. Closes: #466495
206 * bzr, mercurial: Remove unused import of escapeHTML.
207 * Fix another preview will_render bug. This one involved inline,
208 which forced a scan of the page to make available metadata that
209 appeared after the inline directive. Problem is that scan made it forget
210 about any other files rendered due to the page. The scan also turns out
211 to be unnecessary now, since meta persistently stores state and it's
212 always available. So it was just removed.
213 * Disable taint checking for all builds as people keep complaining about it,
214 and since all versions of perl seem to be hopelessly broken.
215 * Fix links generated by preprocessor directives when previewing.
216 * inline: When forcing urls absolute for rss feeds, skip mailto and other
218 * ikiwiki-makerepo: Don't fail if the third argument ends in a slash.
219 * Allow colons in URLs after the first slash. (Adeodato Simó)

262 ikiwiki (2.31) unstable; urgency=low
265 * Revert preservation of input file modification times in output files,
266 since this leads to too many problems with web caching, especially with
267 inlined pages. Properly solving this would involve tracking every page
268 that contributes to a page's content and using the youngest of them all,
269 as well as special cases for things like the version plugin, and it's just
271 * aggregate: Forking a child broke the one state that mattered: Forcing
272 the aggregating page to be rebuilt. Fix this.
273 * cgi hooks are now run before ikiwiki state is loaded.
274 * This allows locking the wiki before loading state, which avoids some
275 tricky locking code when saving a web edit.
276 * poll: This plugin turns out to have edited pages w/o doing any locking.
277 Oops. Convert it from a cgi to a sessioncgi hook, which will work
279 * recentchanges: Improve handling of links on the very static changes pages
280 by thunking to the CGI, which can redirect to the page, or allow it to be
281 created if it doesn't exist.
282 * recentchanges: Exipre all *._change pages, even if the directory
283 they're in has changed.
284 * aggregate: Lots of changes; aggregation can now run without locking the
285 wiki, and there is a separate aggregatelock to prevent multiple concurrent
287 * monotone changes by Brian May:
288 - On commits, replace "mtn sync" bidirectional with "mtn push" single
289 direction. No need to pull changes when doing a commit. mtn sync
290 is still called in rcs_update.
291 - Support for viewing differences via patches using viewmtn.
292 * inline: When previewing, still call will_render on rss/atom files,
293 just avoid actually writing the files. This is necessary because ikiwiki
294 saves state after a preview (in case it actually *did* write files),
295 and if will_render isn't called its security checks will get upset
296 when the page is saved. Thanks to Edward Betts for his help tracking this
298 * inline: Add new `allowrss` and `allowatom` config options. These can be
299 used if you want a wiki that doesn't default to generating rss or atom
300 feeds, but that does allow them to be turned on for specific blogs.
301 * Don't die if running with --getctime and rcs_getctime throws an error.
302 There are several cases (recentchanges files, aggregated files)
303 where some source files are not in revision control.
304 * Page templates can now use CTIME to show when the page was created.

314 * Old versions of git-init don't support --git-dir or GIT_DIR with
315 --bare. Change ikiwiki-makerepo to use a method that should work with
316 those older versions too.
317 * aggregate: Don't let feeds set creation times for pages in the future.
318 * Add full parser for git diff-tree output (Brian Downing)
319 * aggregate: Fork a child process to handle the aggregation. This simplifies
320 the code, since that process can change internal state as needed, and
321 it will automatically be cleaned up for the parent process, which proceeds
322 to render the changes.
325 * Add trailing comma to commented-out umask in sample ikiwiki.setup, so
326 that uncommenting it does not break the setup file.
329 * inline: The template can check for FIRST and LAST, which will be
330 set for the first and last inlined page. Useful for templates that build
332 * prettydate,ddate: Don't ignore time formats passed to displaytime
334 * Pages with extensions starting with "_" are internal-use, and will
335 not be rendered or web-edited, or matched by normal pagespecs.
336 * Add "internal()" pagespec that matches internal-use pages.
337 * RecentChanges is now a static html page, that's updated whenever a commit
338 is made to the wiki. It's built as a blog using inline, so it can have
339 an rss feed that users can subscribe to.
340 * Removed support for sending commit notification mails. Along with it went
341 the svnrepo and notify settings, though both will be ignored if left in
342 setup files. Also gone with it is the "user()" pagespec.
344 * meta: Add pagespec functions to match against title, author, authorurl,
345 license, and copyright. This can be used to create custom RecentChanges.
346 * meta: To support the pagespec functions, metadata about pages has to be
347 retained as pagestate.
348 * Fix encoding bug when pagestate values contained spaces.

359 * Also include overall copyright/license and author info in atom feeds if

363 the hook to determine if it's just scanning, and avoid expensive

366 during it, for a 2x speedup.
367 * meta: Run in scan mode again (more intelligently) and re-add support for

370 that needs to use it. This was broken in version 2.16.
371 * template: Remove bogus htmlize pass added in 2.16.
372 * template: Htmlize template variables, but also provide a raw version
373 via `<TMPL_VAR raw_variable>`.
374 * When htmlizing text, if the input is a single line with no newline,
375 and the htmlizer (such as markdown and textile) generates a html
376 paragraph, remove it. This allows removing several hacks from other
377 plugins that htmlize fragements of pages.

388 * Improved the canedit hook interface, allowing a callback function to be
389 returned (and not run in some cases) rather than the plugins directly
390 forcing a user to log in.

409 * decode_form_utf8 only fixed the utf-8 encoding for fields that were
410 registered at the time it was called, which was before the
411 formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded.
412 But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook
413 need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed
414 to a decode_cgi_utf8, which is called on the cgi query object, before the
415 form is set up, and decodes *all* cgi parameters.

444 * Major basewiki reorganisation. Most pages moved into ikiwiki/ subdirectory
445 to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
446 * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
447 * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
449 * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #454181
450 * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
451 via the %pagestate hash.
452 * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
453 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
454 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
455 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
456 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
457 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
458 wiki rebuild each midnight.
459 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
460 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
461 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
462 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
463 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
464 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
465 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
466 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.

468 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
469 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
471 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
472 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
473 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
474 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
475 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
476 element in the html template. Closes: #454058

481 creating a new page that's entirely empty.

483 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
484 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
485 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
486 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
487 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
488 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since

511 * Add a new ikiwiki-makerepo program, that automates setting up a repo

513 the setup process much simpler.
514 * Reorganised git documentation.
515 * Actually install the ikiwiki-update-wikilist program.
516 * Improve workaround for perl bug #376329. Rather than double-encoding,
517 which has been reported to cause encoding problems (though I haven't
518 reproduced them), just catch a failure of markdown, and retry.

530 to the top of the srcdir. In certian unusual configurations, an attacker
531 who could commit to one of the parent directories of the srcdir could

544 * inline: Add timeformat parameter to control how the ctime of
545 inlined pages is displayed. Closes: #451019
546 * Add wrappergroup config option, which can be used to cause wrappers
547 to be created owned by some group other than the default. Useful
548 then there's a shared repository with access controlled by a group,
549 to let ikiwiki run setgid to that group.

571 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
572 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
573 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
574 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
575 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
576 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
577 stay the same for the duration of the function.
578 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
579 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
580 * Improve the RecentChanges display for git merges, by passing -c instead
581 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no
583 * Don't truncate git commit messages to the first line in RecentChanges,
584 show the full message.
585 * map: Recent changes caused unnecessary ul's to be inserted for items
586 that were all at the same level, fix. Closes: #449285

595 It needs to be setgid if the master repo is a shared repository, so
596 that pushes into the working copy repository happen as the same group,
597 avoiding permissions problems.
598 * The first git commit legitimately has no parents. Avoid recentchanges
599 spewing uninitialised value warnings and debug messages about it.

608 Useful for laptop clones of remote wikis.
609 * Add a calendar plugin, contributed by Manoj Srivastava.
610 * Reformat calendar plugin to ikiwiki conventions.
611 * The calendar plugin made *every* page depend on every other page,
612 which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
613 calculations (I hope.)
614 * Removed manual ctime statting code, and just have the calendar plugin use
616 * Ikiwiki has moved into a git repository.
617 * postsparkline: Avoid a confusing error message if no pages match
618 and instead show an empty graph.
619 * Add handling of feeds for nested inlines, as well as support for a
620 single page containing two different feeds.
621 * Also fixed some places in inline that failed to use destpage correctly.

633 * French translation update. Closes: #445923
634 * Fix --get-ctime with git, needed to remove srcdir from filename.
635 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
636 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
637 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
638 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
639 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
640 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
641 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
643 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
644 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
645 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.
646 * Add a "createlink" class attribute to the span for wikilinks pointing
647 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that
649 * Rewritten rst plugin by madduck is a python program that communicates with
650 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that
651 had to fork python for every rst page render. Note that if you use
652 the rst plugin, you now need to have the RPC::XML perl module installed.

662 * tag: Add taglink preprocessor directive, supporting visible tag links.
664 * map: Fully specify paths to links to avoid issues when the bestlink
665 didn't point to the correct page.
666 * map: Render pages on the way to subpages whose parent pages
667 are not included in the map. Include special styling for such pages.
668 * map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
669 * Add class option to htmllink().
670 * img: Allow link=somepage to cause the image to link to a given page.
671 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking
672 entirely. Unless you have a page named "no"..
673 * Save index after previewing page edit, since even previewing can create
674 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
675 the teximg plugin's error log file.
676 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
677 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
678 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and
679 was ambiguous with preprocessor directives.
680 * camelcase: Tighten regexp to avoid false positives. WikiWords are only
681 linkified now if they are preceeded by whitespace.

715 * Tables containing links with a link text were misparsed, because the "|"
716 in the wikilink looked like a table field separator. Avoid this ambiguity
717 by linkifying the data before parsing it as a table.
718 * Turn on allow_loose_quotes in the table plugin's Text::CSV object,
719 so that links from wikilinks don't confuse the parser.

728 * Handle operating in sub-trees of a git repository.
729 When looking for git commits that affect the wiki, only include changes
730 that affect the ikiwiki source directory. If that is not the top-level
731 directory in this git repository, strip off the prefix as given by
732 `git-rev-parse --show-prefix` from all names reported by git-log.

892 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
893 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image

901 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
902 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
903 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
904 not (if set from the page filename).
905 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it

1079 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.

1100 the numbacklinks setting.

1102 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
1103 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
1104 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

1141 could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
1142 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.

1198 * Add preview parameter to preprocesser calls, use this rather than the
1199 previous ugly hack used to avoid writing rss feeds in previews.
1200 * Fix the img plugin to avoid overwriting images in previews. Instead it
1201 does all the work to make sure the resizing works, and dummys up a resized
1202 image using width and height attributes.

1206 * The slash escaping when adding to a blog from the CGI was not working
1207 since it ended up being double-escaped. Instead, just remove slashes.
1208 * Fix some nasty issues with page name escaping during previewing
1209 (introduced in 1.44).

1211 * The underscore escaping support exposed a bug in edit links: Such links
1212 were titlepage escaped in the urls, and then doubly escaped by the CGI

1232 flags, which can be useful on some hosting providers.

1242 those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.

1244 too fragile to let it kill ikiwiki.

1246 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.

1250 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
1251 dropdown when creating a new page.
1252 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
1253 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
1254 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
1255 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook

1497 * Add an openid plugin to support logging in using OpenID.
1498 * Web commits by OpenID users will record the full OpenID url for the user,
1499 but in recentchanges, these urls will be converted to a simplified display
1501 * Modified svn, git, tla backends to recognise such web commits.
1502 * Move httpauth support to a plugin.
1503 * Add openidsignup config option.
1504 * Make the openid plugin support the callbacks from myopenid.com via its
1506 * Add toggle plugin.
1507 * Add a poll plugin.
1508 * Add quick mode for archive page generation.
1509 * Introduce the goodstuff bundle. This is a kind of plugin, that just enables
1510 many other plugins. It's an easy way to boost ikiwiki from its default,
1511 basic wiki, to a full-featured wiki, without manually picking the right
1512 set of plugins. New plugins will be added to goodstuff from time to
1514 * Change how post signin actions are propigated through the signin process;
1515 they're now stored in the session.
1516 * Add optional "desc" parameter to shortcut definitions.
1517 * Avoid locking the wiki at all when handling some basic cgi stuff
1518 (searches, recentchanges).
1519 * Add "last" parameter to hook function. Very basic ordering, and hopefully
1520 nothing more spohisticated will be needed.
1521 * Add formbuilder_setup and formbuilder hooks.
1522 * Split out a passwordauth module, that holds all the traditional password
1523 based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
1524 if you want only openid or some other auth method.
1525 * Rename ikiwiki.pl so MakeMaker doesn't see it, and install it.
1526 * Add some code to the build system that tries to determine if the
1527 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki
1528 to hardcode the path to the lib directory. This should allow installing
1529 ikiwiki in nonstandard locations, including home directories, by just
1530 setting PREFIX at build time.
1531 * Fix nested examples directory in deb.
1532 * Add a test suite for the mercurial backend, contributed by Emanuele Aina.
1533 * Add a test suite for the svn backend.
1534 * Add a test suite for the git backend, from Recai
1535 * Daemonize before sending RPC pings, since that can take a while
1537 * Daemonize before sending commit mails, as that can also take a long
1538 time/hang if the mail server is unhappy.
1539 * Factor out commit mail sending code into new function.
1540 * Change rcs_commit, it is now passed the name of the user doing the commit
1541 and their IP address, and needs to construct its own commit message
1542 containing them, or do something more appropriate for the given RCS.

1558 * Patch from Ethan Glasser Camp to add a skip option to the inline plugin.

1562 * Work around a strange bug in CGI::FormBuilder 3.0401 that makes
1563 FORM-SUBMIT unusable on customised formbuilder templates. For now,
1564 hardcode the submit buttons in editpage.tmpl instead of using the
1565 template variable, which is ok, since the buttons are static.

1570 ikiwiki (1.32) unstable; urgency=low
1572 * Add a separate pass to find page links, and only render each page once,
1573 instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
1575 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
1576 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
1577 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
1579 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
1580 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
1581 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
1582 (thousands) of pages.
1583 * Stylish update to the ikiwiki logo, thanks to Recai Oktaş and Selçuk
1585 * Add a default stylesheet entry for the pagecloud.
1586 * Add examples page with some examples of things that can be done using
1587 ikiwiki, like a weblog. The examples can be copied into a user's wiki
1588 for a quick start, without needing to learn everything about how to put
1590 * Install the source of the examples into /usr/share/doc/ikiwiki/examples.
1591 * Add perlmagick to build-depends so syntax check of img plugin works.
1593 * Improve login/register process, the login dialog has only name and
1594 password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
1595 field, and is less confusing.
1596 * Implemented expiry options for aggregate plugin.
1597 * Use precalculated backlinks info when determining if files need an update
1598 due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if
1599 there are lots of pages.
1600 * Remove duplicate link info when saving index. In some cases it could
1601 pile up rather badly. (Probably not the best way to deal with this

1604 or what have you, by creating enclosures for non-page items that are

1611 * Patch from Paweł Tęcza to cp -a the templates in the Makefile.
1612 * Change the rss feed title from the wikiname to the page title, with
1613 an exception for the wiki's toplevel index page, which will still use the
1614 wikiname as the feed title.
1615 Overriding the page title with meta title already overrode the rss feed
1617 * Add an img plugin, based on Christian Mock's img plugin, but stripped
1618 down to the bare essentials. Useful for handling large images on websites.
1619 * Sanitize possibly problimatic characters out of the polygen grammar names,
1620 just in case. Should not be exploitable anyway, since it only tries to run
1621 polygen after finding the specified grammar file.
1622 * Add missing dependency on the URI perl module.
1623 * Add basic spam fighting tool for admins: An admin's prefs page now allows
1624 editing a list of banned users.

1632 plugin, but featuring a more ikiwiki-ish syntax and with shortcuts that
1633 can be configured using a page in wiki.
1634 * Fix support for --pingurl at the command line.

1636 items from renderedfiles the first time per build.

1645 * Patch from Paul Tötterman to use CP in the Makefile.
1646 * Patch from Alec Berryman adding a http_auth config item that allows
1647 using HTTP Authentication instead of ikiwiki's built in authentication.
1648 Useful for eg, large sites with their own previously existing user auth
1649 setup. Closes: #384534
1650 * Change %renderedfiles to store an array of files rendered from a given
1651 source file, to allow tracking of extra rendered files like rss feeds.
1652 * Note that plugins that accessed this variable will need to be updated!
1653 The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
1654 As few plugins use %renderedfiles I haven't done anything else to ensure
1655 compatability of old plugins.
1656 * Add will_render function to the plugin interface, used to register that a
1657 page renders a destination file, and do some security checks. Previously
1658 but no longer rendered files will be cleaned up.
1659 * Use will_render in the inline and linkmap plugins.

1686 ikiwiki (1.27) unstable; urgency=low
1688 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
1689 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
1690 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
1691 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
1692 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
1693 like a proper perl module should.
1694 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
1695 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
1696 export some other things.
1697 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
1698 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
1699 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
1700 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.
1701 * Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly encouraged
1702 to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from
1704 * Link debian/changelog and debian/news to NEWS and CHANGELOG.
1705 * Support hyperestradier version 1.4.2, which adds a new required phraseform
1707 * If an inlined page has a permalink, link the page title to that.
1708 * Patch from Recai to use utf8 when reading the setup file, so that
1709 utf8 wikinames from there will be used properly.
1710 * Patch from Recai to kill utf-8 on the wiki name when generating the
1712 * Change ddate plugin to use the DateTime::Calendar::Discordian perl module.
1713 * Fix a baseurl problem in hyperestradier search results.
1714 * Add a stub local.css to avoid problems with 404's.
1715 * Patch from Recai to fix a wide character warning from the search plugin
1716 during setup if the wikiname contains utf8.
1717 * Yet another fix for those poor case-insensative OS X users.
1718 * pagetemplate hooks are now also called when generating cgi pages.
1719 * Add a favicon plugin, which simply adds a link tag for an icon to each

1722 new page, hit cancel, and need to be redirected to somewhere sane.
1723 * Various documentation improvements by various wiki users.

1725 the original markdown or the one in Debian.
1726 * Version the libcgi-session-perl dependency, some features that need
1727 the new version are used in some cases (sslcookie).
1728 * Numerous tla fixes from Clint.
1729 * Updated ikiwiki.svgz from Recai, includes an icon and is used to generate
1730 a multi-resolution favicon.ico.
1731 * README.Debian: typo Closes: #388110
1732 * chomp trailing newline at the end of templates read in by the template
1733 plugin, to allow use of the template preprocessor directive in
1734 whitespace-sensative situations. Closes: #387073
1735 * Patch from James Westby to make the location of the estseek.cgi script

1738 * Add --render mode, which can be used to preview an edit at the command
1739 line by test rendering a single page.
1740 * Add a googlecalendar plugin. A bit special-purpose, but it shows
1741 one way to to deal with user-supplied content that could cause XSS

1784 ikiwiki (1.22) unstable; urgency=low
1786 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
1787 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
1788 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
1789 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
1790 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
1791 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
1792 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
1793 multi-line quoted values.
1794 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
1795 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
1796 * Add a template plugin.
1797 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
1798 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1800 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
1801 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1802 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1803 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1804 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1805 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1806 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
1807 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
1808 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
1809 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1810 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
1811 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
1812 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
1813 from a different directory.
1814 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
1815 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
1816 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
1817 * Added a ddate plugin.
1818 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
1819 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
1820 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
1821 to the preferences page.
1822 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
1823 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
1824 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
1825 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
1826 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
1827 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.

1836 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
1837 defined for that though.
1838 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.

1880 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1881 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1882 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1883 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1884 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1885 forcing the link to lowercase.
1886 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1887 with a given name exists.
1888 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,

1923 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..

1970 --wrappers to do that.
1971 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
1972 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
1973 * Change meta tags to use html entity-escaped text for values, so that
1974 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.
1975 * Depend and build-depend on HTML::Parser for HTML::Entities which is used
1977 * Make --rebuild also cause --aggregate to re-download and write aggregated
1979 * Avoid outputting duplicate meta info.
1980 * Include title metadata on aggregated posts for capitalised and un-munged
1982 * Title metadata of inlined pages now shows up in blogs and rss feeds.
1983 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
1984 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
1985 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
1987 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1988 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1989 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1990 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1991 to perl code that does the matching.
1992 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
1993 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
1994 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.
1995 * Wiki rebuild needed on upgrade to this version due to PageSpec change.
1996 * Add support for creation_month and creation_year to PageSpec.
1998 * Changes to index file encoding.

2005 * New pagestats plugin from Enrico, which can generate a table counting
2006 the backlinks for each page, or a del.icio.us style cloud.
2007 * Build-depend on libtext-wikiformat-perl, so that the syntax check of
2008 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
2009 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar
2010 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
2011 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
2012 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
2013 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
2014 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
2015 * Locale patch from Faidon:
2016 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
2017 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
2018 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
2019 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

2036 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
2037 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
2038 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
2039 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
2041 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
2042 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
2043 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
2045 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
2046 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
2047 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
2048 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
2049 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
2050 different than the source page for inlined pages.
2051 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
2052 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
2053 properly, with correct links generated.

2059 * Run page through any relevant filters when generating a page preview.
2060 * Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
2061 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
2062 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
2063 that is independant of wikitext.
2064 * Fix CamelCase regexp to not break [[FooBar|BazBar]] WikiLinks.

2070 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
2071 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
2072 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
2073 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
2074 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
2075 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
2076 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
2077 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
2078 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
2079 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
2080 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
2081 area, and also way slow.
2082 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
2084 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
2085 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
2086 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)
2087 * Use form->field consistently, not form->param.

2096 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
2097 for a page not being an orphan.
2098 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
2099 about changes to rss feeds.
2100 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
2101 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2102 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
2103 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
2104 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
2105 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
2106 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2107 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
2108 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2109 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
2111 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
2112 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
2113 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
2114 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
2115 getting in the way of the preview.
2116 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
2118 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2119 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
2120 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
2121 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
2123 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
2124 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2125 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
2126 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
2127 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
2128 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
2129 sanitise them, like any other page type.
2130 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
2131 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
2132 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
2133 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
2134 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
2135 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
2136 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
2137 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
2138 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
2139 No code changes involved.
2140 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
2141 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.
2142 * Memoize abs2rel, which is still kinda slow, for another 30% speedup
2143 in time to build the doc wiki.

2156 ikiwiki (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
2158 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
2159 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
2160 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
2161 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
2163 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
2164 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
2165 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
2166 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
2167 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
2168 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
2170 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
2171 given the readfile fix.
2172 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
2173 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
2175 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
2176 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
2177 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
2178 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
2179 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
2181 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
2183 * New SVG logo from Recai.

2189 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
2190 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
2191 timezone, not as GMT.
2192 * More security review.
2193 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
2194 for some handy stuff like:
2195 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
2196 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
2197 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
2198 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
2199 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
2200 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
2201 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
2202 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
2203 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
2205 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
2206 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
2207 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
2208 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
2209 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
2210 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
2211 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
2212 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
2213 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
2214 * Doc updates for git.
2215 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
2217 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
2218 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
2219 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

2223 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
2225 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
2226 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
2227 should be always valid again now.
2228 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
2229 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
2230 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
2231 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
2232 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
2233 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
2234 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
2236 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
2237 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
2239 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
2240 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
2241 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
2242 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
2244 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
2245 fix and make it a bit more flexible
2246 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
2247 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
2248 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
2249 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
2250 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
2251 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
2253 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
2254 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
2255 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
2257 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
2258 relative to the inlining page.)
2259 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
2260 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
2261 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

2281 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
2282 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
2283 on upgrade to this version.
2284 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
2285 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
2286 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
2287 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
2288 plugins) during a page render.
2289 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
2290 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
2292 * Added a plugin system.
2293 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
2294 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
2295 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
2296 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
2297 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
2299 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
2300 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
2301 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
2302 different location) already exists.
2303 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
2304 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
2305 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2306 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
2307 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
2308 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2309 * Smart globlist merging.
2310 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
2311 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
2312 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
2313 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
2314 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
2315 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
2316 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
2317 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
