7 ikiwiki (2.16) unstable; urgency=low
9 * Major basewiki reorganisation. Most pages moved into ikiwiki/ subdirectory
10 to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
11 * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
12 * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
14 * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #454181
15 * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
16 via the %pagestate hash.
17 * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
18 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
19 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
20 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
21 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
22 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
23 wiki rebuild each midnight.
24 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
25 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
26 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
27 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
28 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
29 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
30 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
31 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
32 (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
33 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
34 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
36 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
37 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
38 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
39 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
40 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
41 element in the html template. Closes: #454058
42 * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
43 * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
44 * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
45 * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
46 creating a new page that's entirely empty.
47 * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
48 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
49 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
50 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
51 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
52 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
53 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
54 the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
56 * meta: Improved data storage.
57 * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
58 stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
59 liw's disappearing openids).
60 * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
61 * map: Don't inline images.
62 * brokenlinks: Don't list the same link multiple times. (%links might
63 contain multiple copies of the same link)
64 * git: Correct display of multiline commit messages in recentchanges.
65 * Re-organise dependencies and recommends now that recommends are installed
67 * Don't refuse to render files with ".." in their name. (Anchor the regexp.)
68 * Work around perl taint checking bug #411786, where perl sometimes randomly
69 sets the taint flag on untainted variables, by disabling taint checking
70 in the deb. This sucks.

74 ikiwiki (2.15) unstable; urgency=low
76 * Add a new ikiwiki-makerepo program, that automates setting up a repo
77 and importing existing content for svn, git, and mercurial. This makes
78 the setup process much simpler.
79 * Reorganised git documentation.
80 * Actually install the ikiwiki-update-wikilist program.
81 * Improve workaround for perl bug #376329. Rather than double-encoding,
82 which has been reported to cause encoding problems (though I haven't
83 reproduced them), just catch a failure of markdown, and retry.
84 (The crazy perl bug magically disappears on the retry.)
86 * Add umask configuration option. Closes: #443329

90 ikiwiki (2.14) unstable; urgency=high
92 * Let CC be used to control what compiler is used to build wrappers.
93 * Use 'cc' instead of gcc as the default compiler.
94 * Security fix: Ensure that there are no symlinks anywhere in the path
95 to the top of the srcdir. In certian unusual configurations, an attacker
96 who could commit to one of the parent directories of the srcdir could
97 use a symlink attack to cause ikiwiki to publish files elsewhere in the
98 filesystem. More details at <http://ikiwiki.info/security/#index29h2>

104 The ikiwiki zombie army release.
106 * Add liblwpx-paranoidagent-perl to recommends of Debian package,
107 this is needed to do OpenID really securely.
108 * ikiwiki.setup is licensed same as the basewiki, not GPLed.
109 * inline: Add timeformat parameter to control how the ctime of
110 inlined pages is displayed. Closes: #451019
111 * Add wrappergroup config option, which can be used to cause wrappers
112 to be created owned by some group other than the default. Useful
113 then there's a shared repository with access controlled by a group,
114 to let ikiwiki run setgid to that group.
115 * ikiwiki-mass-rebuild: Run build with the user in all their groups.
116 * Correct markdown in example index page in setup. Closes: #451469
117 * Better error message when a setup file has a syntax error.
119 * Fix mercurial historyurl in example setup file.
120 * More compact output for the brokenlinks plugin.
121 * Allow trailing slashes after page names in wikilinks.
122 * Don't consider links to anchors on the same page to be self links.
123 Patch by Daniel Burrows. Closes: #451729
124 * When usedirs is disabled, link direct to index.html files, not to
125 directories, to improve browsing of file:// urls.
126 Patch by Daniel Burrows. Closes: #451728
127 * Allow html5 video and audio tags and their attributes in the htmlscrubber.
128 * toc: Handle html elements embedded inside a header, rather than
129 stopping collecting the header text at the first element.

133 ikiwiki (2.12) unstable; urgency=low
136 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
137 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
138 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
139 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
140 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
141 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
142 stay the same for the duration of the function.
143 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
144 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
145 * Improve the RecentChanges display for git merges, by passing -c instead
146 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no
148 * Don't truncate git commit messages to the first line in RecentChanges,
149 show the full message.
150 * map: Recent changes caused unnecessary ul's to be inserted for items
151 that were all at the same level, fix. Closes: #449285
154 * Fix table plugin to not generate an unbalanced tbody tag with header=no
155 * Add xmlns attribute on html element in templates; pages can now
159 * In the example setup file, use mode 6755 for the git post-update hook.
160 It needs to be setgid if the master repo is a shared repository, so
161 that pushes into the working copy repository happen as the same group,
162 avoiding permissions problems.
163 * The first git commit legitimately has no parents. Avoid recentchanges
164 spewing uninitialised value warnings and debug messages about it.
165 Dummying up a parent of 0000000 allows gitweb to work too.

171 * Correct a pair of logic errors that triggered if svnpath was empty.
172 * If gitorigin_branch is set to the empty string, don't push or pull.
173 Useful for laptop clones of remote wikis.
174 * Add a calendar plugin, contributed by Manoj Srivastava.
175 * Reformat calendar plugin to ikiwiki conventions.
176 * The calendar plugin made *every* page depend on every other page,
177 which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
178 calculations (I hope.)
179 * Removed manual ctime statting code, and just have the calendar plugin use
181 * Ikiwiki has moved into a git repository.
182 * postsparkline: Avoid a confusing error message if no pages match
183 and instead show an empty graph.
184 * Add handling of feeds for nested inlines, as well as support for a
185 single page containing two different feeds.
186 * Also fixed some places in inline that failed to use destpage correctly.
187 * ikiwiki-mass-rebuild: Patch from HenrikBrixAndersen to fix order
188 of permissions dropping code to work on FreeBSD.
189 * ikiwiki-mass-rebuild: Don't clear PATH from the environment.
190 * Run git-commit -q (though it doesn't do much good due to its stderr

197 * Tidy ctime debug output for git.
198 * French translation update. Closes: #445923
199 * Fix --get-ctime with git, needed to remove srcdir from filename.
200 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
201 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
202 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
203 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
204 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
205 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
206 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
208 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
209 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
210 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.
211 * Add a "createlink" class attribute to the span for wikilinks pointing
212 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that
214 * Rewritten rst plugin by madduck is a python program that communicates with
215 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that
216 had to fork python for every rst page render. Note that if you use
217 the rst plugin, you now need to have the RPC::XML perl module installed.
218 * Danish translation from Jonas Smedegaard. Closes: #446952
219 * Support git authors of the form "joey <joey>", which is common when
220 importing from a svn repo.

224 ikiwiki (2.9) unstable; urgency=low
226 * Fix copyright and licence styling.
227 * tag: Add taglink preprocessor directive, supporting visible tag links.
229 * map: Fully specify paths to links to avoid issues when the bestlink
230 didn't point to the correct page.
231 * map: Render pages on the way to subpages whose parent pages
232 are not included in the map. Include special styling for such pages.
233 * map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
234 * Add class option to htmllink().
235 * img: Allow link=somepage to cause the image to link to a given page.
236 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking
237 entirely. Unless you have a page named "no"..
238 * Save index after previewing page edit, since even previewing can create
239 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
240 the teximg plugin's error log file.
241 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
242 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
243 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and
244 was ambiguous with preprocessor directives.
245 * camelcase: Tighten regexp to avoid false positives. WikiWords are only
246 linkified now if they are preceeded by whitespace.

252 * Redid the debian/copyright file, using the proposed new copyright file
253 format. Included many details not previously listed in the old file.
254 * inline: add feedonly option, set feedonly=yes to get only the feed button
255 but not inline the pages.
256 * meta: Support license and copyright information. The information will
257 be shown in the page footer. HTML will also be inserted that should
258 support the rel=license microformat as well as the HTML spec's
260 * table plugin: Actually specify the delimiter when parsing CSV.
261 * table plugin: The previous version broke WikiLinks inside quoted values.
262 Fix this by linkifying CSV data after parsing it, while DSV data is still
263 linkified before parsing.

267 ikiwiki (2.7) unstable; urgency=low
270 * Add an editcontent hook.
271 * Support for looking in multiple directories for underlay files.
272 * Plugins can add new directories to the search path with the add_underlay
274 * Split out smiley underlay files into a separate underlay, so if the plugin
275 isn't used, the wiki isn't bloated with all those files.
276 * Allow -cgi -wrapper to be passed on the command line to generate a
278 * Fix some taint issues with generating wrappers using the command line.
279 * Don't allow newlines in link text in a wikilink.
280 * Tables containing links with a link text were misparsed, because the "|"
281 in the wikilink looked like a table field separator. Avoid this ambiguity
282 by linkifying the data before parsing it as a table.
283 * Turn on allow_loose_quotes in the table plugin's Text::CSV object,
284 so that links from wikilinks don't confuse the parser.
285 * mercurial: Pass --style default to hg log to ensure right format is used.
286 * mercurial: Fix rcs_getctime (thanks, bma)
289 * Use git-log rather than the shell, git-rev-list, and git-diff-tree.
290 Patch by Jamey Sharp <jamey@minilop.net>.
291 * Renames from git-diff-tree aren't handled, so don't ask for them.
293 * Handle operating in sub-trees of a git repository.
294 When looking for git commits that affect the wiki, only include changes
295 that affect the ikiwiki source directory. If that is not the top-level
296 directory in this git repository, strip off the prefix as given by
297 `git-rev-parse --show-prefix` from all names reported by git-log.
301 * Correct generation of RFC 3339 format times for atom/rss feeds. Always use
302 gmtime for these since a time zone is not specified.

333 * Add rel=tag attribute to tag links, supporting that microformat, as well
334 as allowing them to be styled specially. Thanks, NicolasLimare.

339 * The toc directive doesn't work well or make sense inside an inlined page.
340 Disable it when the page with the toc is nested inside another page.
341 * Apply a patch from NicolasLimare adding modification date tags to rss and
342 atom feeds, and also changing the publication time for a feed to the
343 newest modiciation time (was newest creation time).
344 * The patch also adds dcterms:creator to rss items that have a known author.
345 * Support pagespec "functions" with no parameters, like included() in the
347 * Add time=mtime option to postsparkline.
348 * Fix --libdir to work at the command line.
349 * Plugins can now be written as standalone external programs, which can
350 be written in any language that can do XML RPC.
351 * Change yet again how unhandled and escaped preprocessor directives are
352 re-output onto the page. Hopefully I finally got it right..
353 * Fix bug in deletion/move during edit code introduced in 1.44. Need to take
354 the underlaydir into account.
355 * Fix bug when editing file from underlaydir, need to rcs_add it even though
356 a page creation isn't occuring.
357 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
358 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
359 - add a title to the editpage form;
360 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
361 hooks, so we can add ours;
362 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
364 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template
365 (This was needed for compatability with a bug in CGI::FormBuilder
366 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
367 * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.
368 * Add color parameter to postsparkline. Closes: #438900
369 * Add proper Homepage field to Debian package (needs uber-new dpkg).
370 * Add monotone support, contributed by William Uther.
371 * Avoid ugly gettext messages if LANG is empty. Closes: #439035
372 * Added teximg plugin to generate images from latex code.
373 Contributed by Patrick Winnertz as a GSoC project.
374 * Call the formbuilder hook for the edit page.
375 * Call decode_form_utf8 before running formbuilder_setup hooks.
376 * Add editdiff plugin contributed by Jeremie Koenig.
377 * Fix it to not leak path info.
378 * Add embed plugin, which allows embedding content from google maps, video,
379 calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they

445 ikiwiki (2.2) unstable; urgency=low
447 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
448 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
449 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
450 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
451 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
452 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
453 always be tracked correctly.
454 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
456 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
457 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
458 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
459 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
460 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
461 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
462 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
463 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
464 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
465 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
466 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
467 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
468 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
469 not (if set from the page filename).
470 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
471 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
472 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
473 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

655 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
656 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.

659 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.

665 the numbacklinks setting.
666 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
667 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
668 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
669 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

707 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.

1141 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
1142 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
1144 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
1145 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
1146 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots

1254 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
1255 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
1256 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
1257 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
1258 like a proper perl module should.
1259 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
1260 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
1261 export some other things.

1263 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.

1366 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1367 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1368 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1369 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1370 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1371 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.

1493 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
1494 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
1495 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
1496 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
1498 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
1499 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
1500 matter what the input.
1501 * Disable tidy warnings too.
1502 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
1503 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks
1505 * Fix dates in rss feeds if running localised, so they're still rfc 822.

1537 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.

1539 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.

1548 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
1549 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
1550 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
1552 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1553 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1554 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1555 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1556 to perl code that does the matching.
1557 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
1558 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
1559 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

1573 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.

1576 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
1577 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.

1579 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
1580 * Locale patch from Faidon:
1581 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
1582 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
1583 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
1584 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

1607 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.

1611 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
1612 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
1613 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
1614 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
1615 different than the source page for inlined pages.
1616 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink

1637 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
1638 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
1639 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
1640 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
1641 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
1642 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
1643 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
1644 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
1645 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
1646 area, and also way slow.
1647 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.

1662 for a page not being an orphan.
1663 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1664 about changes to rss feeds.
1665 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1666 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1667 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1668 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1669 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1670 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1671 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1672 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
1673 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1674 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
1676 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
1677 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1678 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1679 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1680 getting in the way of the preview.
1681 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
1683 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1684 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1685 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1686 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1688 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1689 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1690 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1691 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1692 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1693 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1694 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1695 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1696 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1697 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1698 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1699 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1700 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1701 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1702 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1703 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1704 No code changes involved.
1705 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1706 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

1723 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1724 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1725 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1726 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1728 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1729 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1730 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1731 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1732 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1733 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1735 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1736 given the readfile fix.
1737 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1738 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1740 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1741 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1742 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1743 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1744 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1746 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1757 * More security review.
1758 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1759 for some handy stuff like:
1760 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1761 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1762 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1763 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1764 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1765 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1766 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1767 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1768 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1770 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1771 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1772 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1773 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1774 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1775 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
1776 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
1777 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
1778 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
1779 * Doc updates for git.
1780 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
1782 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
1783 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
1784 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

1791 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
1792 should be always valid again now.

1794 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
1795 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
1796 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1797 around with adding new stuff to the page template.

1799 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
1801 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
1802 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
1804 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
1805 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
1806 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
1807 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
1809 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1810 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1811 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1812 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1813 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1814 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1815 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1816 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1818 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1819 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1820 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1822 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1823 relative to the inlining page.)
1824 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.

1870 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1871 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.

1873 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1874 * Smart globlist merging.
