12 Previous fix mised a few cases.

24 needing to do so can call IkiWiki::Setup::load, which will return

29 transition works again.
32 * template: Add support for a BASENAME variable.
33 * Fixes creation of pages when clicking on WikiLinks starting with "/".
34 * Change deb dependencies to list Text::Markdown before markdown, since
35 the former, while slower, has a much better html parser that avoids
37 * Move yesno function out of inline and into IkiWiki core, not exported.
38 * Error handling improvement for preprocess hooks. It's now safe to call
39 error() from such hooks; it will cause a nicely formatted error message
40 to be inserted into the page.
41 * Cut the size of the binary package in half by excluding pages for bugs
42 and todo items from the html shipped in it.
43 * parentlinks: New plugin, split out of ikiwiki core and enabled by default,
44 and several new fields added to allow for advanced styling. (intrigeri)
45 * smileys: Some fixes for escaped smileys.
46 * smileys: Note that smileys need to be double-escaped for the escaping to
47 work. Markdown removes one level of escaping.
48 * Add a postscan hook.
49 * search: Use postscan hook, avoid updating index when previewing.
50 * git: Put web committer name/openid/address in the git author field.
51 The committer's email address is not used (because leaking email addresses
52 is not liked by many users). Closes: #451023
53 * git: Fix parsing of git logs with no commit messages at all.
54 * search: Fixes for title stemming, and use better term for tags.

57 use the search plugin.)
60 * meta, inline: Support guid options, to allow forcing a particular url or
62 * meta: fix title() PageSpec
63 * Some footer style changes.
64 * aggregate: Add an `aggregateinternal` option, which allows storing
65 aggregated data to internal-use files, rather than wiki pages. This

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

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

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

177 enabled. passwordauth would allow logging in as a known openid, with an
178 empty password. Closes: #483770 (CVE-2008-0169)

180 pounding on the cgi following edit links.

198 since PERL5LIB won't work once ikiwiki is running via a wrapper or as

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

218 * amazon_s3: New plugin, which injects wiki pages into Amazon S3, allowing
219 ikiwiki to be used without a dedicated web server.
220 * aggregate: Add support for web-based triggering of aggregation
221 for people stuck on shared hosting without cron. (Sheesh.) Enabled
222 via the `aggregate_webtrigger` configuration optiom.
223 * Add pinger and pingee plugins, which allow setting up mirrors and branched
224 wikis that automatically ping one another to stay up to date.
225 * Optimised file statting code when scanning for modified pages;
226 cut the number of system calls in half. (Still room for improvement.)

240 * img: Support a title attribute, will be passed through to html.
242 * anonk: Add anonok_pagespec configuration setting that can be used to
243 allow anonymous users to edit only matching pages. Closes: #478892
244 * Fix ugly display when editing a page that has vanished.
245 * srcfile now has an optional second parameter to avoid it throwing an error
246 if the source file does not exist.
247 * git: Put -- before the filename when calling git rev-list to avoid

369 * Add new preprocessor directive syntax¸ using a '!' prefix. Add a
370 prefix_directives option to the setup file to turn this syntax on;
371 currently defaults to false, for backward compatibility. Support
372 optional '!' prefix even with prefix_directives off, and use that in

378 * Generate XML RPC messages with the encoding set to utf-8 instead
379 of XML::RPC's default of us-ascii. Allows interoperation with
380 python's xmlrpc library, which threw invalid encoding exceptions and

404 the html is escaped at a different level. Closes: #466495
405 * bzr, mercurial: Remove unused import of escapeHTML.
406 * Fix another preview will_render bug. This one involved inline,
407 which forced a scan of the page to make available metadata that
408 appeared after the inline directive. Problem is that scan made it forget
409 about any other files rendered due to the page. The scan also turns out
410 to be unnecessary now, since meta persistently stores state and it's
411 always available. So it was just removed.
412 * Disable taint checking for all builds as people keep complaining about it,
413 and since all versions of perl seem to be hopelessly broken.
414 * Fix links generated by preprocessor directives when previewing.

490 - Support for viewing differences via patches using viewmtn.
491 * inline: When previewing, still call will_render on rss/atom files,
492 just avoid actually writing the files. This is necessary because ikiwiki
493 saves state after a preview (in case it actually *did* write files),
494 and if will_render isn't called its security checks will get upset

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

549 his independent work on bzr support.

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

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

630 and supporting negated pagespecs and added whitespace.

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

697 contain multiple copies of the same link)

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

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

835 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
836 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
837 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
838 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
839 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
840 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
842 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
843 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error

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

873 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
874 the teximg plugin's error log file.

1025 * Correct some issues with escaped preprocessor directives.
1026 * Make the map plugin notice when pages in the map are deleted and update

1046 * Make the toc plugin use html-compatible anchors. This is necessary since
1047 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers

1049 recommendations in appendix C of the XHTML spec. Closes: #432045

1081 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
1082 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
1083 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
1084 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
1085 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
1086 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
1087 always be tracked correctly.
1088 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
1090 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
1091 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
1092 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
1093 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
1094 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
1095 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
1096 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
1097 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
1098 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
1099 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
1100 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
1101 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
1102 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
1103 not (if set from the page filename).
1104 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
1105 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
1106 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
1107 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

1139 set in the wiki setup, passwordauth will require the password in
1140 order to create an account.

1212 * Fix sending of commit mails when new pages are added via the web.
1213 * Add user(name) to the PageSpec for commit subscriptions.

1215 for extended pagespecs. The old calling convention will still work for
1216 back-compat for now.
1217 * The calling convention for functions in the IkiWiki::PageSpec namespace

1983 ikiwiki (1.22) unstable; urgency=low
1985 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
1986 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
1987 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
1988 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
1989 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
1990 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
1991 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
1992 multi-line quoted values.
1993 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
1994 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
1995 * Add a template plugin.
1996 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
1997 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1999 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
2000 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
2001 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
2002 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
2003 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
2004 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
2005 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
2006 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
2007 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
2008 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
2009 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
2010 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
2011 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
2012 from a different directory.
2013 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
2014 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
2015 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
2016 * Added a ddate plugin.
2017 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
2018 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
2019 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
2020 to the preferences page.
2021 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
2022 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
2023 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
2024 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
2025 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
2026 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.

2034 * If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
2035 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
2036 defined for that though.
2037 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.
2038 * Support inlining pages raw, rather than creating a blog.
2039 * Clean up yes/no parameter parsing in inline plugin.
2040 * Implemented better cycle detection in the inline plugin; nested inlines

2043 * Add otl format plugin, which handles files as created by vimoutliner.
2044 * Fix ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to work in the way the postinst uses it.

2056 Since these can easily become part of other people's websites, they
2057 should be under as permissive a license as possible.
2058 * Add --syslog config option, to log to the syslog.
2059 * Catch failing IPC::Open2 in tidy plugin and retry in case this is a
2060 transient failure to fork (which I've seen happen in the wild).

2074 ikiwiki (1.18) unstable; urgency=low
2076 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
2078 * Man page format fixups.
2079 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
2080 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
2081 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
2082 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
2083 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
2084 forcing the link to lowercase.
2085 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
2086 with a given name exists.
2087 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
2088 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
2089 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.

2096 * Disable tidy generator tag.
2097 * Move tidy back to sanitize hook, found out how to only show body.
2098 * Turn off tidy indentation too.
2099 * Turn on HTML::Template loop_context_vars; not actually used in stock
2100 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
2101 of tags or what have you.
2102 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
2103 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on
2104 case-sensative filesystems like OSX.
2105 * Improve markdown loading. First, try to load it as a proper perl module,
2106 in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying
2108 * Document in install page how to install markdown, since it has no
2109 installation procedure in the upstream tarball.
2110 * Set die_on_bad_params => 0 for all templates, to allow users to modify
2111 them without annoyances.
2112 * Suck in the page content when generating an inline archive page, to work
2113 around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.

2117 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
2119 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
2120 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
2121 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
2122 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
2123 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
2124 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
2126 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
2127 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
2128 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
2129 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
2130 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
2132 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
2133 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
2134 matter what the input.
2135 * Disable tidy warnings too.
2136 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
2137 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks

2170 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
2171 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.

2183 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
2184 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
2186 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
2187 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
2188 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
2189 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
2190 to perl code that does the matching.
2191 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
2192 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
2193 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

2215 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
2216 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
2217 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,

2240 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
2241 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.

2245 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
2246 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
2247 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
2248 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
2249 different than the source page for inlined pages.
2250 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
2251 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work

2273 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
2274 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.

2276 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.

2295 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
2296 for a page not being an orphan.
2297 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
2298 about changes to rss feeds.
2299 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
2300 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2301 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
2302 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
2303 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
2304 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
2305 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2306 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
2307 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2308 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
2310 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
2311 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
2312 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
2313 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
2314 getting in the way of the preview.
2315 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
2317 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2318 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
2319 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
2320 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
2322 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
2323 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2324 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
2325 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
2326 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
2327 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
2328 sanitise them, like any other page type.
2329 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
2330 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
2331 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
2332 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
2333 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
2334 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
2335 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
2336 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
2337 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
2338 No code changes involved.
2339 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
2340 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

2357 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
2358 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
2359 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
2360 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
2362 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
2363 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
2364 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
2365 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
2366 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
2367 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
2369 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
2370 given the readfile fix.
2371 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
2372 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
2374 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
2375 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
2376 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
2377 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
2378 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
2380 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

2391 * More security review.
2392 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
2393 for some handy stuff like:
2394 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
2395 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
2396 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
2397 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
2398 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
2399 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
2400 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
2401 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
2402 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
2404 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
2405 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
2406 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
2407 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
2408 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
2409 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
2410 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
2411 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
2412 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.

2443 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
2444 fix and make it a bit more flexible
2445 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
2446 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
2447 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
2448 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
2449 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
2450 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
2452 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
2453 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
2454 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
2456 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
2457 relative to the inlining page.)
2458 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
2459 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
2460 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

2472 * Remove dups from the brokenlinks list.
2473 * Add libc6-dev to dependencies, needed to build wrappers.
2474 * Install wikilist in correct location. Closes: #367371

2478 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
2480 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
2481 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
2482 on upgrade to this version.
2483 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
2484 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
2485 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
2486 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
2487 plugins) during a page render.
2488 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
2489 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
2491 * Added a plugin system.
2492 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
2493 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
2494 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
2495 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
2496 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
2498 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
2499 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
2500 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
2501 different location) already exists.
2502 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
2503 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
2504 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2505 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
2506 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
2507 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2508 * Smart globlist merging.
2509 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
2510 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
2511 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
2512 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
2513 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
2514 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
2515 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
2516 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
2517 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
2519 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
2520 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
2521 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
2523 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
2524 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
2525 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
2526 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
2527 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
2528 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
