3 * aggregate: Try to query XML::Feed for the base url when derelevatising
4 links. Since this needs the just released XML::Feed 0.3, as well
5 as a not yet released XML::RSS, it will fall back to the old method
6 if no xml:base info is available.
7 * meta: Plugin is now enabled by default since the basewiki uses it.
8 * txt: Do not encode quotes when filtering the txt, as that broke
9 later parsing of any directives on the page.
10 * Fix the link() pagespec to match links that are internally recorded as

21 * Add support for checking pushes from untrusted git committers. This can be
22 used to set up anonymous git pushes, and other similar things.
23 * format: New plugin, allows embedding differently formatted text inside a
24 page (ie, otl inside a mdwn page, or syntax highlighted code inside a
26 * relativedate: New javascript-alicious plugin that makes all dates display
27 relative, in a very nice way, if I say so myself.
28 * Optimise the no-op post-commit hook, to speed up web edits by a fraction
30 * git: Allow [[sha1_commit]] to be used in the diffurl, to support cgit.
31 * shortcut: Fix display of shortcuts while previewing.
32 * Plugins that used to override displaytime should instead override
33 formattime. displaytime will call that, and may wrap markup around the

37 * toggle: Stop embedding the full toggle code on each page using it, and
38 move it to toggle.js in the javascript underlay.
39 * recentchanges: Make feed links point back to anchors on the recentchanges
41 * Fix issue with utf-8 in wikiname breaking session cookies, by
42 entity-encoding the wikiname in the session cookie.
43 * Use the pure perl Data::Dumper when generating setup files to ensure that
44 utf-8 characters are written out as such, and not as the encoded perl
45 strings the C Data::Dumper produces.
46 * inline: Only the last feed link was put on the page, fix this to include
47 all feed links. So rss will be included along with atom, and pages with
48 multiple feeds will get links added for all feeds.
49 * tag: When tagbase is set, force the links created by tagging to point at
50 the toplevel tagbase, and not closer subpages. The html links already went
51 there, but internally the links were not recorded as absolute, which could
52 cause confusing backlinks etc.
53 * Add an inject function, that can be used by plugins that want to
54 replace one of ikiwiki's functions with their own version.

56 all exported occurances of a function with the injected version.)

71 is locked for. This supports most of the ACL type things users have been
72 wanting to be done. Closes: #443346 (It does not control who can read a
73 page, but that's out of scope for ikiwiki.)

104 untidied content if tidy crashes. In either case, it seems best to tidy
105 the content to nothing.
106 * htmltidy: Avoid spewing tidy errors to stderr.
107 * Reorganize index file, add a format version field. Upgrades to the new
108 index format should be transparent.
109 * Add %wikistate, which is like %pagestate except not specific to a given
110 page, and is preserved across rebuilds.
111 * editpage: Be more aggressive (and less buggy) about cleaning up
112 temporary files rendered during page preview.
113 * Add an indexpages option, which causes foo/index.mdwn to be the source
114 for page foo when foo.mdwn doesn't exist. Also, when it's enabled,
115 creating a new page will save it to foo/index.mdwn by default.

513 * mdwn: Add a multimarkdown setup file option.
514 * If PERL5LIB is set to the libdir when building ikiwiki, calculate and
515 hardcode a proper 'use lib' statement anyway. This fixes a gotcha,
516 since PERL5LIB won't work once ikiwiki is running via a wrapper or as

524 * ENV can be used in the setup file to override environment variable
525 settings, such as TZ or PATH.
526 * Perls older than 5.10 need to use the old method of decoding utf-8 in CGI
527 values. Neither method will work for all versions of perl, so check
528 version number at runtime.

539 for people stuck on shared hosting without cron. (Sheesh.) Enabled
540 via the `aggregate_webtrigger` configuration optiom.
541 * Add pinger and pingee plugins, which allow setting up mirrors and branched
542 wikis that automatically ping one another to stay up to date.
543 * Optimised file statting code when scanning for modified pages;
544 cut the number of system calls in half. (Still room for improvement.)

563 * srcfile now has an optional second parameter to avoid it throwing an error
564 if the source file does not exist.
565 * git: Put -- before the filename when calling git rev-list to avoid
566 warning message when the file doesn't exist.

570 CPAN to install in a home directory on shared hosting providers.

695 * Danish translation update from Jonas Smedegaard. Closes: #465152
696 * Generate XML RPC messages with the encoding set to utf-8 instead
697 of XML::RPC's default of us-ascii. Allows interoperation with
698 python's xmlrpc library, which threw invalid encoding exceptions and
699 caused the rst plugin to hang.
700 * Add the linkify and scan hooks. These hooks can be used to implement
701 custom, first-class types of wikilinks.

717 when B previewed it would redirect B to A's new page, losing B's work.

722 the html is escaped at a different level. Closes: #466495
723 * bzr, mercurial: Remove unused import of escapeHTML.
724 * Fix another preview will_render bug. This one involved inline,
725 which forced a scan of the page to make available metadata that
726 appeared after the inline directive. Problem is that scan made it forget
727 about any other files rendered due to the page. The scan also turns out
728 to be unnecessary now, since meta persistently stores state and it's
729 always available. So it was just removed.

808 - Support for viewing differences via patches using viewmtn.
809 * inline: When previewing, still call will_render on rss/atom files,
810 just avoid actually writing the files. This is necessary because ikiwiki
811 saves state after a preview (in case it actually *did* write files),
812 and if will_render isn't called its security checks will get upset
813 when the page is saved. Thanks to Edward Betts for his help tracking this

816 used if you want a wiki that doesn't default to generating rss or atom
817 feeds, but that does allow them to be turned on for specific blogs.

928 formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded.
929 But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook
930 need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed

971 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
972 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,

1004 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume

1088 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
1089 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
1090 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
1091 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
1092 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
1093 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
1094 stay the same for the duration of the function.
1095 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
1096 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
1097 * Improve the RecentChanges display for git merges, by passing -c instead
1098 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no
1100 * Don't truncate git commit messages to the first line in RecentChanges,

1112 It needs to be setgid if the master repo is a shared repository, so
1113 that pushes into the working copy repository happen as the same group,
1114 avoiding permissions problems.
1115 * The first git commit legitimately has no parents. Avoid recentchanges

1128 * The calendar plugin made *every* page depend on every other page,
1129 which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
1130 calculations (I hope.)
1131 * Removed manual ctime statting code, and just have the calendar plugin use

1150 * French translation update. Closes: #445923
1151 * Fix --get-ctime with git, needed to remove srcdir from filename.
1152 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
1153 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
1154 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
1155 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
1156 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
1157 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
1158 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
1159 will avoid this bug.
1160 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
1161 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
1162 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.
1163 * Add a "createlink" class attribute to the span for wikilinks pointing
1164 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that
1166 * Rewritten rst plugin by madduck is a python program that communicates with
1167 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that
1168 had to fork python for every rst page render. Note that if you use
1169 the rst plugin, you now need to have the RPC::XML perl module installed.

1182 didn't point to the correct page.
1183 * map: Render pages on the way to subpages whose parent pages
1184 are not included in the map. Include special styling for such pages.
1185 * map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
1186 * Add class option to htmllink().
1187 * img: Allow link=somepage to cause the image to link to a given page.
1188 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking
1189 entirely. Unless you have a page named "no"..
1190 * Save index after previewing page edit, since even previewing can create
1191 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
1192 the teximg plugin's error log file.
1193 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
1194 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
1195 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and
1196 was ambiguous with preprocessor directives.
1197 * camelcase: Tighten regexp to avoid false positives. WikiWords are only
1198 linkified now if they are preceeded by whitespace.

1231 * Don't allow newlines in link text in a wikilink.

1233 in the wikilink looked like a table field separator. Avoid this ambiguity
1234 by linkifying the data before parsing it as a table.
1235 * Turn on allow_loose_quotes in the table plugin's Text::CSV object,
1236 so that links from wikilinks don't confuse the parser.

1409 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
1410 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
1411 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages

1534 back-compat for now.
1535 * The calling convention for functions in the IkiWiki::PageSpec namespace

1594 usedirs you'll have to deal with that on upgrade to this version.
1595 * Add feedshow parameter to inline, which can be useful for eg, removing
1596 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.

1607 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
1608 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
1609 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
1610 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
1611 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
1612 * Include the note template in the basewiki.
1613 * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
1614 * Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
1615 self-documenting, listing the available variables.
1616 * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
1617 the numbacklinks setting.
1618 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
1619 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
1620 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
1621 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

1659 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.

1763 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.

1768 dropdown when creating a new page.
1769 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
1770 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
1771 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
1772 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook

2092 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
2093 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
2094 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
2096 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
2097 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
2098 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots

2111 password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
2112 field, and is less confusing.

2206 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
2207 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
2208 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
2209 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
2210 like a proper perl module should.
2211 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
2212 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
2213 export some other things.
2214 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
2215 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
2216 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
2217 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.

2306 from the template, as well as stylesheets.

2317 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
2318 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
2319 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
2320 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
2321 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
2322 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
2323 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
2324 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
2325 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
2326 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes

2444 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
2445 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
2446 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
2447 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
2448 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
2450 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
2451 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
2452 matter what the input.
2453 * Disable tidy warnings too.
2454 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
2455 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks
2457 * Fix dates in rss feeds if running localised, so they're still rfc 822.

2485 * Don't put blog post forms on pages if there's no cgiurl set.
2486 * --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh

2488 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
2489 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
2490 * Change meta tags to use html entity-escaped text for values, so that
2491 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.

2497 * Include title metadata on aggregated posts for capitalised and un-munged
2499 * Title metadata of inlined pages now shows up in blogs and rss feeds.
2500 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
2501 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
2502 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
2504 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
2505 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
2506 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
2507 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
2508 to perl code that does the matching.
2509 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
2510 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
2511 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.
2512 * Wiki rebuild needed on upgrade to this version due to PageSpec change.

2524 * Build-depend on libtext-wikiformat-perl, so that the syntax check of
2525 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
2526 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar
2527 display, running them through pagetitle. This removes ugly underscores and
2528 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
2529 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.
2530 * Polygen plugin from Enrico.
2531 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
2532 * Locale patch from Faidon:
2533 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
2534 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
2535 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
2536 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

2554 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
2555 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
2556 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified

2559 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
2560 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also

2563 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
2564 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
2565 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
2566 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
2567 different than the source page for inlined pages.
2568 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
2569 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work

2589 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
2590 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
2591 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
2592 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
2593 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
2594 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
2595 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
2596 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
2597 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
2598 area, and also way slow.
2599 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.

2614 for a page not being an orphan.
2615 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
2616 about changes to rss feeds.
2617 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
2618 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2619 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
2620 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
2621 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
2622 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
2623 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2624 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
2625 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2626 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
2628 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
2629 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
2630 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
2631 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
2632 getting in the way of the preview.
2633 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
2635 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2636 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
2637 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
2638 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
2640 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
2641 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2642 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
2643 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
2644 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
2645 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
2646 sanitise them, like any other page type.
2647 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
2648 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
2649 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
2650 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
2651 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
2652 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
2653 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
2654 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
2655 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
2656 No code changes involved.
2657 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
2658 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

2675 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
2676 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
2677 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
2678 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
2680 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
2681 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
2682 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
2683 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
2684 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
2685 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
2687 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
2688 given the readfile fix.
2689 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
2690 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
2692 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
2693 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
2694 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
2695 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
2696 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
2698 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

2708 timezone, not as GMT.
2709 * More security review.
2710 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
2711 for some handy stuff like:
2712 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
2713 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
2714 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
2715 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
2716 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
2717 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
2718 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
2719 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
2720 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
2722 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
2723 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
2724 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
2725 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
2726 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
2727 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
2728 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
2729 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
2730 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
2731 * Doc updates for git.
2732 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
2734 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
2735 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
2736 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

2742 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
2743 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
2744 should be always valid again now.
2745 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
2746 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
2747 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
2748 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
2749 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
2750 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
2751 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
2753 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
2754 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
2756 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
2757 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
2758 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
2759 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
2761 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
2762 fix and make it a bit more flexible
2763 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
2764 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
2765 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
2766 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
2767 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
2768 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
2770 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
2771 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
2772 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
2774 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
2775 relative to the inlining page.)
2776 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.

2801 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
2802 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
2803 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.

2813 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.

2821 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
2822 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2823 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
2824 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
2825 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2826 * Smart globlist merging.
2827 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
2828 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
2829 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
2830 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
