8 commit. Thanks, Alexander Wirt. Closes: #420428
9 * Fix aggregator to not warn when a feed contains no body content at all.
10 * Work around bug #420636 by, if XML::Parser crashes, running the feed
11 content though Encode::decode_utf8.
14 * Change basewiki CSS to not put a border around images used as links.
17 * Move the footer div to enclose tags and links too.
18 * More style sheet updates, remove the hack that used the tags div to create

21 wiki rebuilds are recommended on upgrade to this version.
22 * Avoid .svn directories when installing from svn checkout.
23 * Fix sending of commit mails when new pages are added via the web.
24 * Add user(name) to the PageSpec for commit subscriptions.
25 * pagespec_match() has changed to take named parameters, to better allow
26 for extended pagespecs. The old calling convention will still work for

50 * Add a graphviz plugin.
52 * Enhance helponformatting and related documentation to supply more
53 information about available preprocessor directives.
54 * Add myself as a co-maintainer, with Joey's approval.
57 * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
58 wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
59 * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
60 the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.
61 * Use %destsources in htmllink and urlto for 20-50% speedup. Thanks
62 Josh Triplett for the idea.
63 * Optimise displaytime, trimming maybe 6% off the build time.
66 * Conflicts/Replaces/Provides the unofficial ikiwiki-plugin-table
67 package, because ikiwiki now provides the table plugin, and thus has
68 a file overlap with ikiwiki-plugin-table.
69 * Add libtext-csv-perl to Suggests, for the table plugin.
70 * Add libdigest-sha1-perl to Suggests, for sparkline and graphviz.
71 * Add libtext-typography-perl to Suggests for the typography plugin.
74 * Add postformtext parameter to inline.
75 * Internal version number and installdir substitutions were lost, fix.

79 effect. Note that this changes permalinks, so if you are already using
80 usedirs you'll have to deal with that on upgrade to this version.
81 * Add feedshow parameter to inline, which can be useful for eg, removing
82 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.
83 * Add .dpkg-tmp to prune regexp, so that if ikiwiki is run right as it's
84 being upgraded by dpkg it will ignore dpkg temp files in the basewiki.

88 ikiwiki (1.49) unstable; urgency=low
91 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
92 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
93 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
94 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
95 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
96 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
97 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
98 * Include the note template in the basewiki.
99 * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
100 * Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
101 self-documenting, listing the available variables.
102 * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
103 the numbacklinks setting.
104 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
105 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
106 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
107 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.
108 * Fix a bug in the img plugin that caused thumbnailed files to not be
110 * Make the OpenID library a reccommendation of the Debian package, rather
111 than just a suggests, since OpenID is enabled by default.
112 * Fix a bug that caused link(foo) to succeed if page foo did not exist.
113 * Fix tags to page names that contain special characters.
116 * Use pngcrush and optipng on all PNG files.
117 * Add neutral smileys ":|" and ":-|", and question icon smiley "(?)",
118 with images taken from phpBB (GPL) and converted with gif2png.
119 * Improvements to Description in debian/control:
120 * Note that some plugins have additional dependencies, found among the
121 Recommends and Suggests.
122 * ikiwiki supports both RSS and Atom feeds.
124 * Add Homepage field.

128 * Updated French translation from JLC. Closes: #417982
129 * Reorder the icon in the template above the stylesheets, to avoid icon
130 flashing during page load.
131 * Fix smiley plugin to scan smileys.mdwn after it's updated, which fixes
132 a bug caused by committing changes to smilies.mdwn.

142 * Fix link() PageSpecs to not just look at the raw link text, but at where
143 that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
144 could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
145 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.
146 * This required changing the match_* interface, adding a third parameter.
147 * Allow link() PageSpecs to match relative, as is allowed with globs.
148 * Add postform option to inline plugin.
149 * Add an bug tracker to the softwaresite example.
150 * Make ikiwiki's stylesheet support printing by hiding parts of the page
151 that shouldn't appear in a printout: Search box, actions bar,
152 blog post form, tags, backlinks, and feed buttons.
153 * Finally fixed the longstanding inline removal bug.
154 * Renamed %oldpagemtime to a more accurately named %pagemtime and fix it to
155 actually store pages' mtimes.
156 * Add "mtime" sort parameter to inline plugin.

164 plugins's support for inserting html link and meta tags. Now such content
165 is passed through the htmlscrubber like everything else.
166 * Unfortunatly, that means that some valid uses of those tags are no longer
167 usable, and special case methods needed to be added for including
168 stylesheets, and for doing openid delegation. If you use either of these
169 in your wiki, it will need to be modified. See the meta plugin docs

180 * Fix some broken logic in cgi creation of a subpage when a toplevel page
181 with the same name already exists, and generally simplify the edit code.
182 * Make ikiwiki -verbose -setup with a setup file that enabled syslog logging
183 output the verbose build log to stdout, rather than to the syslog.
184 * Detect the case of two people independently creating the same page at the
185 same time, and let the second person resolve the conflict.

195 * Allow for underscores to appear in page titles, if encoded appropriately
196 (__95__) in filenames. Previously, all underscores were replaced with
197 spaces. Thanks, Enrico Zini for noticing that bug.
198 * Add "template" option to inline plugin to allow for use of customised
200 * Add titlepage template for inline plugin.
201 * Add preview parameter to preprocesser calls, use this rather than the
202 previous ugly hack used to avoid writing rss feeds in previews.
203 * Fix the img plugin to avoid overwriting images in previews. Instead it
204 does all the work to make sure the resizing works, and dummys up a resized
205 image using width and height attributes.
206 * Also fixes img preview display, the links were wrong in preview before.
207 * Add a sparkline plugin.
208 * Add a postsparkline plugin.
209 * The slash escaping when adding to a blog from the CGI was not working
210 since it ended up being double-escaped. Instead, just remove slashes.
211 * Fix some nasty issues with page name escaping during previewing
212 (introduced in 1.44).
213 * Add a table plugin, derived from the one written by Victor Moral.
214 * The underscore escaping support exposed a bug in edit links: Such links
215 were titlepage escaped in the urls, and then doubly escaped by the CGI
216 when editing. To fix this, I removed the titlepage escaping in the edit
218 * That means that *every edit link* on the wiki is potentially changed.

228 * Patch by Ben to fix validaton of atom feeds by fixing the category tags.
229 * Add a openidlogin-bg.gif to wikiicons and have the stylesheet use it for the
230 OpenID login form rather than linking to a remote logo, to avoid various
231 issues. Since there is not yet a license for the actual OpenID logo, this
232 file is currently a blank image. Users who want to can copy
233 http://openid.net/login-bg.gif into their wiki.
234 * Allow setting NOTAINT=1 when building the wiki to remove taint checking
235 flags, which can be useful on some hosting providers.
236 * Fix a bug that made links like [[0|foo]] use "foo" as the link text,
238 * Changed calling convention for httmllink slightly. The first three
239 parameters remain the same, but additional options are now passed in using
241 * Change plugin interface version to 1.02 to reflect this change.
242 * Add a new anchor option to htmllink. Thanks Ben for the idea.
243 * Support anchors in wikilinks.
244 * Add a "more" plugin based on one contributed by Ben to allow implementing
245 those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.
246 * Don't error out if estcmd fails, just print a warning message. estcmd is
247 too fragile to let it kill ikiwiki.
248 * Make img plugin not fail immediately if Image::Magick is not available.
249 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.
250 * Detect old versions of xgettext and avoid using them.
251 * perl is broken: print "" || die fails! Work around this insanity.
252 * Smarter detection of no-op changes to po files.
253 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
254 dropdown when creating a new page.
255 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
256 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
257 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
258 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
259 (except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the
260 commit hook would have done.

280 say if they're currently enabled or not, and in various other places
282 * Updated Spanish translation.
283 * Make the basewiki be full of symlinks to pages that should be the same
284 in the doc wiki. This will allow direct edits to alter the base wiki
285 without manual munging.
286 * Fix the template, toggle, and conditional plugins to filter text before
288 * Fix smiley plugin to support smileys at the very beginning or end of
290 * Allow multiple tag settings to appear in a single page.
291 * Many changes to make ikiwiki very resistant to write failures
292 including out of disk space situations. ikiwiki should never leave
293 truncated files, and if the error occurs during a web-based file edit,
294 the user will be given an opportunity to retry.
295 Inspired by the many ways Moin Moin destroys itself when out of disk. :-)

318 * Remove the anonok config setting. This is now implemented by a new
319 "anonok" plugin. Anyone with a wiki allowing anonymous edits should
320 change their configs to enable this new plugin.
321 * Add an opendiscussion plugin that allows anonymous users to edit
322 discussion pages, on a wiki that otherwise wouldn't allow it.
323 * Lots of CGI code reorg and cleanup.
324 * Avoid using lots of memory when copying large non-html files.
325 Yes, you can keep videos in the wiki..

526 based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
527 if you want only openid or some other auth method.
528 * Rename ikiwiki.pl so MakeMaker doesn't see it, and install it.
529 * Add some code to the build system that tries to determine if the
530 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki
531 to hardcode the path to the lib directory. This should allow installing
532 ikiwiki in nonstandard locations, including home directories, by just
533 setting PREFIX at build time.

575 * Add a separate pass to find page links, and only render each page once,
576 instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
578 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
579 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
580 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
582 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
583 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
584 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
585 (thousands) of pages.

601 due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if

656 The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
657 As few plugins use %renderedfiles I haven't done anything else to ensure
658 compatability of old plugins.

691 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
692 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
693 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
694 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
695 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
696 like a proper perl module should.
697 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
698 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
699 export some other things.
700 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
701 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
702 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
703 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.
704 * Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly encouraged
705 to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from

790 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
791 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
792 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
793 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
794 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
795 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
796 multi-line quoted values.
797 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
798 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
799 * Add a template plugin.
800 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
801 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
803 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
804 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
805 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
806 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
807 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
808 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
809 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
810 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
811 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
812 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
813 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
814 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.

816 from a different directory.

828 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.

885 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
886 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
887 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
888 forcing the link to lowercase.
889 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
890 with a given name exists.

1021 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
1022 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was
1024 * Add getopt hook type, this allows plugins to add new command-line options.
1025 * Add --tagbase option to tag plugin.
1026 * Add exclude option in setup files, works same as --exclude.
1027 * Put categories in rss feeds for tagged items.
1028 * Allow preprocessor directives to be expanded in inlined blog pages.

1039 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
1040 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
1041 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
1042 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
1044 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
1045 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
1046 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
1048 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
1049 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
1050 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
1051 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
1052 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
1053 different than the source page for inlined pages.
1054 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
1055 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
1056 properly, with correct links generated.

1062 * Run page through any relevant filters when generating a page preview.
1063 * Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
1064 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
1065 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
1066 that is independant of wikitext.
1067 * Fix CamelCase regexp to not break [[FooBar|BazBar]] WikiLinks.

1073 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
1074 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
1075 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
1076 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
1077 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
1078 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
1079 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
1080 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
1081 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
1082 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
1083 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
1084 area, and also way slow.
1085 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
1087 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
1088 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
1089 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)
1090 * Use form->field consistently, not form->param.

1099 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
1100 for a page not being an orphan.
1101 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1102 about changes to rss feeds.
1103 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1104 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1105 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1106 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1107 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1108 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1109 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1110 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
1111 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1112 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
1114 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
1115 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1116 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1117 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1118 getting in the way of the preview.
1119 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
1121 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1122 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1123 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1124 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1126 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1127 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1128 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1129 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1130 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1131 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1132 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1133 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1134 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1135 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1136 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1137 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1138 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1139 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1140 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1141 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1142 No code changes involved.
1143 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1144 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.
1145 * Memoize abs2rel, which is still kinda slow, for another 30% speedup
1146 in time to build the doc wiki.

1159 ikiwiki (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
1161 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1162 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1163 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1164 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1166 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1167 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1168 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1169 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1170 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1171 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1173 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1174 given the readfile fix.
1175 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1176 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1178 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1179 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1180 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1181 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1182 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1184 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
1186 * New SVG logo from Recai.

1193 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
1194 timezone, not as GMT.
1195 * More security review.
1196 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1197 for some handy stuff like:
1198 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1199 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1200 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1201 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1202 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1203 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1204 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1205 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1206 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1208 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1209 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1210 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1211 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1212 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1213 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
1214 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
1215 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
1216 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
1217 * Doc updates for git.
1218 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
1220 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
1221 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
1222 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

1226 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
1228 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
1229 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
1230 should be always valid again now.
1231 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
1232 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
1233 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
1234 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1235 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
1236 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
1237 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
1239 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
1240 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
1242 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
1243 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
1244 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
1245 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
1247 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1248 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1249 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1250 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1251 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1252 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1253 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1254 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1256 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1257 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1258 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1260 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1261 relative to the inlining page.)
1262 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
1263 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
1264 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

1282 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
1284 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1285 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1286 on upgrade to this version.
1287 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1288 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
1289 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1290 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
1291 plugins) during a page render.
1292 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
1293 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
1295 * Added a plugin system.
1296 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
1297 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
1298 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
1299 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
1300 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
1302 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
1303 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
1304 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
1305 different location) already exists.
1306 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
1307 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
1308 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1309 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
1310 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
1311 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1312 * Smart globlist merging.
1313 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1314 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1315 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1316 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1317 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1318 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1319 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1320 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1321 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1323 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
