5 * editpage: Don't show attachments link when attachments are disabled.
6 * tag: Allow tagbase to be overridden by starting a tag with "./" or "/".
8 * Really fix bug with links to pages with names containing colons.
9 Previous fix mised a few cases.
10 * Avoid troublesome abs_path calls in wrapper setup.
11 * Add allow_symlinks_before_srcdir config setting that can be used to avoid

22 needing to do so can call IkiWiki::Setup::load, which will return
26 * ikiwiki-transition: Fix command-line processing so the prefix_directives
27 transition works again.
30 * template: Add support for a BASENAME variable.
31 * Fixes creation of pages when clicking on WikiLinks starting with "/".
32 * Change deb dependencies to list Text::Markdown before markdown, since
33 the former, while slower, has a much better html parser that avoids
35 * Move yesno function out of inline and into IkiWiki core, not exported.
36 * Error handling improvement for preprocess hooks. It's now safe to call
37 error() from such hooks; it will cause a nicely formatted error message
38 to be inserted into the page.
39 * Cut the size of the binary package in half by excluding pages for bugs
40 and todo items from the html shipped in it.
41 * parentlinks: New plugin, split out of ikiwiki core and enabled by default,
42 and several new fields added to allow for advanced styling. (intrigeri)
43 * smileys: Some fixes for escaped smileys.
44 * smileys: Note that smileys need to be double-escaped for the escaping to
45 work. Markdown removes one level of escaping.
46 * Add a postscan hook.
47 * search: Use postscan hook, avoid updating index when previewing.
48 * git: Put web committer name/openid/address in the git author field.
49 The committer's email address is not used (because leaking email addresses
50 is not liked by many users). Closes: #451023
51 * git: Fix parsing of git logs with no commit messages at all.
52 * search: Fixes for title stemming, and use better term for tags.
54 (Rebuilding the wiki on upgrade to this version is recommended if you
55 use the search plugin.)
58 * meta, inline: Support guid options, to allow forcing a particular url or
60 * meta: fix title() PageSpec
61 * Some footer style changes.
62 * aggregate: Add an `aggregateinternal` option, which allows storing
63 aggregated data to internal-use files, rather than wiki pages. This
64 can save disk space, and be faster.

84 ikiwiki (2.52) unstable; urgency=low
86 * attachment: New plugin for uploading and managing attachments.
87 This includes a fairly powerful PageSpec based admin pref for deciding
88 whether to accept a given upload, and an attachment management interface
90 (Sponsored by The TOVA Company.)
91 * If attachments are not enabled, configure CGI.pm to disable file
92 uploads by default. (An anti-DOS measure.)
93 * toggle: Add support for toggles that are open by default.
94 * toggle: Fix to work in preview mode.
95 * toggle: Add javascript to top of page, not to end. This avoids flicker
96 since closed toggles will not be displayed as the page is loading.
97 * The editpage form now uses the raw page name, not the page title, in its
98 'page' cgi parameter. Using the title was ambiguous and made it
99 impossible to tell between some pages, like "foo/bar" and "foo__47__bar",
100 sometimes causing the wrong page to be edited.
101 * This change means that some edit links need to be updated.
102 Force a rebuild on upgrade to this version.

116 * meta: Store "description" in pagestate for use by other plugins.
117 * map: Support show=description.
118 * textile: The Text::Textile perl module has some regexps that fail if
119 input is flagged as utf-8, but contains invalid characters such as 0x92.
120 To prevent it from crashing, re-encode the content before calling it,
121 which will ensure that it's really utf-8.
122 * Version the suggests of xapian-omega to a version known to be new enough
123 to work with ikiwiki. Reportedly, version 0.9.9 is too old to work.
125 * creole: New plugin from Bernd Zeimetz. Closes: #486930
126 * aggregate: Add template parameter.
127 * Add support for the universal edit button <http://universaleditbutton.org/>
128 (To get this on all pages of an exiting wiki, rebuild the wiki.)
129 * txt: New plugin, contributed by Gabriel McManus.
130 * smiley: Generate links relative to the destpage. (Fixes a reversion from
132 * toc: Revert change in 2.45 that made it run at sanitize time. That broke
133 use of toc in a sidebar.
134 * Call format hooks when generating page previews, thus fixing toc display
135 there, as well as fixing inlins to again display in page previews, since
136 it's started using format hooks. This also allows several other things,
137 like embed, that use format hooks, to work during page preview time.
138 * Format hooks should not rely on getting an entire html document, as they
139 will only get the body during page preview.

163 prevent wikilinks added by filters from being scanned properly. But
164 no known filter hook does that, so let's not waste time on it.

203 when generating recentchanges.
204 * ENV can be used in the setup file to override environment variable
205 settings, such as TZ or PATH.
206 * Perls older than 5.10 need to use the old method of decoding utf-8 in CGI
207 values. Neither method will work for all versions of perl, so check
208 version number at runtime.

219 for people stuck on shared hosting without cron. (Sheesh.) Enabled
220 via the `aggregate_webtrigger` configuration optiom.
221 * Add pinger and pingee plugins, which allow setting up mirrors and branched
222 wikis that automatically ping one another to stay up to date.
223 * Optimised file statting code when scanning for modified pages;

376 * Generate XML RPC messages with the encoding set to utf-8 instead
377 of XML::RPC's default of us-ascii. Allows interoperation with

404 * Fix another preview will_render bug. This one involved inline,
405 which forced a scan of the page to make available metadata that
406 appeared after the inline directive. Problem is that scan made it forget
407 about any other files rendered due to the page. The scan also turns out
408 to be unnecessary now, since meta persistently stores state and it's
409 always available. So it was just removed.
410 * Disable taint checking for all builds as people keep complaining about it,
411 and since all versions of perl seem to be hopelessly broken.

488 - Support for viewing differences via patches using viewmtn.
489 * inline: When previewing, still call will_render on rss/atom files,
490 just avoid actually writing the files. This is necessary because ikiwiki
491 saves state after a preview (in case it actually *did* write files),

516 * aggregate: Fork a child process to handle the aggregation. This simplifies
517 the code, since that process can change internal state as needed, and
518 it will automatically be cleaned up for the parent process, which proceeds
519 to render the changes.
522 * Add trailing comma to commented-out umask in sample ikiwiki.setup, so
523 that uncommenting it does not break the setup file.
526 * inline: The template can check for FIRST and LAST, which will be
527 set for the first and last inlined page. Useful for templates that build
529 * prettydate,ddate: Don't ignore time formats passed to displaytime
531 * Pages with extensions starting with "_" are internal-use, and will
532 not be rendered or web-edited, or matched by normal pagespecs.
533 * Add "internal()" pagespec that matches internal-use pages.
534 * RecentChanges is now a static html page, that's updated whenever a commit
535 is made to the wiki. It's built as a blog using inline, so it can have
536 an rss feed that users can subscribe to.
537 * Removed support for sending commit notification mails. Along with it went
538 the svnrepo and notify settings, though both will be ignored if left in
539 setup files. Also gone with it is the "user()" pagespec.
541 * meta: Add pagespec functions to match against title, author, authorurl,
542 license, and copyright. This can be used to create custom RecentChanges.
543 * meta: To support the pagespec functions, metadata about pages has to be
544 retained as pagestate.
545 * Fix encoding bug when pagestate values contained spaces.

558 * meta: Allow copyright/license metadata to contain arbitrary markup.
559 * Call preprocessor hooks in void context during the scan pass. This allows
560 the hook to determine if it's just scanning, and avoid expensive

568 * template: Remove bogus htmlize pass added in 2.16.
569 * template: Htmlize template variables, but also provide a raw version
570 via `<TMPL_VAR raw_variable>`.
571 * When htmlizing text, if the input is a single line with no newline,
572 and the htmlizer (such as markdown and textile) generates a html
573 paragraph, remove it. This allows removing several hacks from other
574 plugins that htmlize fragements of pages.

603 * Retry dropping uid and gid, possibly this will help with the "Resource
604 temporarily unavailable" failures I've experienced under xen.
605 * Stop testing Encode::is_utf8 in decode_form_utf8: That doesn't work.
606 * decode_form_utf8 only fixed the utf-8 encoding for fields that were
607 registered at the time it was called, which was before the
608 formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded.
609 But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook
610 need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed
611 to a decode_cgi_utf8, which is called on the cgi query object, before the
612 form is set up, and decodes *all* cgi parameters.

628 and supporting negated pagespecs and added whitespace.

642 to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
643 * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
644 * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
646 * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #454181
647 * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
648 via the %pagestate hash.
649 * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
650 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
651 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
652 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
653 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
654 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
655 wiki rebuild each midnight.
656 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
657 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
658 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
659 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
660 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
661 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
662 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
663 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
664 (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
665 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
666 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
668 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
669 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
670 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
671 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
672 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
673 element in the html template. Closes: #454058
674 * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
675 * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
676 * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
677 * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
678 creating a new page that's entirely empty.
679 * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
680 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
681 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
682 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
683 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
684 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
685 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
686 the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
688 * meta: Improved data storage.
689 * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
690 stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
691 liw's disappearing openids).
692 * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.

694 * brokenlinks: Don't list the same link multiple times. (%links might
695 contain multiple copies of the same link)

768 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
769 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
770 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
771 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
772 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
773 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
774 stay the same for the duration of the function.
775 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
776 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.

778 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no

832 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
833 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
834 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
835 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
836 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
837 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
838 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
840 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
841 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
842 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.

844 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that

847 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that

868 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking

871 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
872 the teximg plugin's error log file.
873 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.

1045 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers

1047 recommendations in appendix C of the XHTML spec. Closes: #432045

1080 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
1081 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
1082 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
1083 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
1084 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
1085 always be tracked correctly.
1086 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
1088 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
1089 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
1090 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
1091 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
1092 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
1093 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
1094 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
1095 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
1096 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
1097 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
1098 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
1099 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
1100 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
1101 not (if set from the page filename).
1102 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
1103 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
1104 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
1105 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

1981 ikiwiki (1.22) unstable; urgency=low
1983 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
1984 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
1985 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
1986 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
1987 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
1988 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
1989 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
1990 multi-line quoted values.
1991 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
1992 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
1993 * Add a template plugin.
1994 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
1995 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1997 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
1998 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1999 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
2000 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
2001 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
2002 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
2003 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
2004 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
2005 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
2006 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
2007 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
2008 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
2009 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
2010 from a different directory.
2011 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
2012 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
2013 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
2014 * Added a ddate plugin.
2015 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
2016 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
2017 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
2018 to the preferences page.
2019 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
2020 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
2021 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
2022 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
2023 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
2024 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.
2025 * Add processed date to aggregate preprocessor directive status output.

2031 * Add a tail fin^W^Wsidebar plugin by Tuomo Valkonen.
2032 * If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
2033 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
2034 defined for that though.
2035 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.
2036 * Support inlining pages raw, rather than creating a blog.
2037 * Clean up yes/no parameter parsing in inline plugin.
2038 * Implemented better cycle detection in the inline plugin; nested inlines
2040 * Add a map plugin contributed by Alessandro Dotti Contra.
2041 * Add otl format plugin, which handles files as created by vimoutliner.
2042 * Fix ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to work in the way the postinst uses it.
2043 * Add first draft at a Restructured Text (rst) plugin, by Sergio
2044 Talens-Oliag. Note that this has many known issues -- see the caveats on

2053 * Relicense the templates and basewiki under the 2-clause BSD license.
2054 Since these can easily become part of other people's websites, they
2055 should be under as permissive a license as possible.
2056 * Add --syslog config option, to log to the syslog.
2057 * Catch failing IPC::Open2 in tidy plugin and retry in case this is a
2058 transient failure to fork (which I've seen happen in the wild).
2059 * Fix a bug in the aggregator introduced last version that caused all
2060 aggregator state to be lost during a non-aggregating build.

2072 ikiwiki (1.18) unstable; urgency=low
2074 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
2076 * Man page format fixups.
2077 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
2078 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
2079 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
2080 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
2081 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
2082 forcing the link to lowercase.
2083 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
2084 with a given name exists.
2085 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
2086 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
2087 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.
2088 * Recommend rebuilding wikis on upgrade to this version.

2094 * Disable tidy generator tag.
2095 * Move tidy back to sanitize hook, found out how to only show body.
2096 * Turn off tidy indentation too.
2097 * Turn on HTML::Template loop_context_vars; not actually used in stock
2098 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
2099 of tags or what have you.
2100 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
2101 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on
2102 case-sensative filesystems like OSX.
2103 * Improve markdown loading. First, try to load it as a proper perl module,
2104 in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying
2106 * Document in install page how to install markdown, since it has no
2107 installation procedure in the upstream tarball.
2108 * Set die_on_bad_params => 0 for all templates, to allow users to modify
2109 them without annoyances.
2110 * Suck in the page content when generating an inline archive page, to work
2111 around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.

2115 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
2117 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
2118 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
2119 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
2120 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
2121 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
2122 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
2124 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
2125 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
2126 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
2127 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
2128 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
2130 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
2131 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
2132 matter what the input.
2133 * Disable tidy warnings too.
2134 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
2135 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks
2137 * Fix dates in rss feeds if running localised, so they're still rfc 822.

2160 * ikiwiki can now download and aggregate feeds with its new aggregate
2161 plugin, so it's possible to implement a Planet using ikiwiki!
2162 * Add a run_hooks function for the common task of running all hooks of a

2165 * Don't put blog post forms on pages if there's no cgiurl set.
2166 * --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh
2167 --wrappers to do that.
2168 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
2169 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
2170 * Change meta tags to use html entity-escaped text for values, so that
2171 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.
2172 * Depend and build-depend on HTML::Parser for HTML::Entities which is used

2177 * Include title metadata on aggregated posts for capitalised and un-munged
2179 * Title metadata of inlined pages now shows up in blogs and rss feeds.
2180 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
2181 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
2182 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
2184 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
2185 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
2186 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
2187 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
2188 to perl code that does the matching.
2189 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
2190 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
2191 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

2205 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.

2207 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
2208 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
2209 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
2210 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
2211 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
2212 * Locale patch from Faidon:
2213 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
2214 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
2215 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
2216 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

2233 - Adds a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
2234 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin

2236 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
2238 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
2239 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
2240 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
2242 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
2243 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
2244 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
2245 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
2246 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
2247 different than the source page for inlined pages.
2248 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
2249 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work

2259 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
2260 that is independant of wikitext.

2270 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
2271 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
2272 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
2273 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
2274 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
2275 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
2276 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
2277 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
2278 area, and also way slow.
2279 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.

2293 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
2294 for a page not being an orphan.
2295 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
2296 about changes to rss feeds.
2297 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
2298 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2299 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
2300 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
2301 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
2302 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
2303 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2304 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
2305 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2306 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
2308 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
2309 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
2310 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
2311 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
2312 getting in the way of the preview.
2313 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
2315 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2316 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
2317 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
2318 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
2320 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
2321 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2322 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
2323 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
2324 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
2325 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
2326 sanitise them, like any other page type.
2327 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
2328 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
2329 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
2330 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
2331 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
2332 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
2333 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
2334 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
2335 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
2336 No code changes involved.
2337 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
2338 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

2355 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
2356 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
2357 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
2358 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
2360 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
2361 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
2362 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
2363 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
2364 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
2365 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
2367 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
2368 given the readfile fix.
2369 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
2370 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
2372 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
2373 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
2374 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
2375 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
2376 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
2378 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

2388 timezone, not as GMT.
2389 * More security review.
2390 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
2391 for some handy stuff like:
2392 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
2393 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
2394 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
2395 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
2396 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
2397 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
2398 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
2399 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
2400 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
2402 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
2403 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
2404 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
2405 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
2406 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
2407 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
2408 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
2409 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
2410 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.

2443 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
2444 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
2445 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
2446 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
2447 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
2448 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
2450 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
2451 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
2452 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
2454 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
2455 relative to the inlining page.)
2456 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
2457 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
2458 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

2470 * Remove dups from the brokenlinks list.
2471 * Add libc6-dev to dependencies, needed to build wrappers.
2472 * Install wikilist in correct location. Closes: #367371

2476 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
2478 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
2479 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
2480 on upgrade to this version.
2481 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
2482 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
2483 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
2484 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
2485 plugins) during a page render.
2486 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
2487 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
2489 * Added a plugin system.
2490 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
2491 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
2492 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
2493 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
2494 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
2496 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
2497 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
2498 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
2499 different location) already exists.
2500 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
2501 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
2502 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2503 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
2504 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
2505 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2506 * Smart globlist merging.
2507 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
2508 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
2509 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
2510 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
2511 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
2512 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
2513 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
2514 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
2515 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
2517 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
2518 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
2519 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
2521 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
2522 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
2523 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
2524 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
2525 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
2526 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
