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

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

94 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
95 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
96 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
97 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
98 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
99 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
100 always be tracked correctly.
101 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
103 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
104 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
105 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
106 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
107 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
108 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
109 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
110 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
111 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
112 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
113 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
114 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
115 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
116 not (if set from the page filename).
117 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
118 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
119 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
120 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.
121 * Correct some issues with display of unhandled preprocessor directives.
122 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth adding support for using globs in link()
124 * Explode some of the more insane regexps.
125 * Add test suite for preprocessor directive parsing.

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

261 * Enhance helponformatting and related documentation to supply more
262 information about available preprocessor directives.

266 * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
267 wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
268 * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
269 the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.

300 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
301 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
302 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
303 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.

314 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
315 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
316 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.

463 dropdown when creating a new page.
464 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
465 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
466 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new

739 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki

903 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins

1013 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1014 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1015 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1016 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1017 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1018 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.

1091 * Man page format fixups.
1092 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1093 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1094 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1095 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1096 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1097 forcing the link to lowercase.
1098 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1099 with a given name exists.

1133 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:

1135 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..

1199 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1200 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1201 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1202 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1203 to perl code that does the matching.

1309 for a page not being an orphan.
1310 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1311 about changes to rss feeds.
1312 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1313 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1314 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1315 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1316 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1317 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1318 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.

1327 getting in the way of the preview.

1330 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1331 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1332 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1333 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1335 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1336 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1337 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1338 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1339 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1340 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1341 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1342 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1343 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1344 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1345 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1346 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1347 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1348 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1349 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1350 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1351 No code changes involved.
1352 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1353 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

1370 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1371 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1372 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1373 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1375 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1376 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1377 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1378 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1379 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1380 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1382 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1383 given the readfile fix.
1384 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1385 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1387 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1388 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1389 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1390 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1391 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1393 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1405 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1406 for some handy stuff like:
1407 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1408 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1409 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1410 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1411 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1412 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1413 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1414 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1415 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1417 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1418 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1419 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1420 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1421 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1422 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.

1441 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.

1443 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1444 around with adding new stuff to the page template.

1456 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1457 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1458 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1459 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1460 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1461 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1462 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1463 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1465 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1466 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1467 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1469 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1470 relative to the inlining page.)

1498 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1499 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
1500 plugins) during a page render.
1501 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
1502 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
1504 * Added a plugin system.
1505 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
1506 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
1507 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
1508 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
1509 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
1511 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
1512 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
1513 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
1514 different location) already exists.
1515 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
1516 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
1517 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1518 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
1519 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
1520 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1521 * Smart globlist merging.
1522 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1523 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1524 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1525 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1526 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1527 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1528 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1529 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1530 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1532 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
1533 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
1534 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
1536 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
1537 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
1538 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
1539 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
1540 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
1541 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
