5 their svn repositories, with no trunk directory.
6 * Minor template improvements by Alessandro.
7 * In mercurial backend, untaint ipaddr when using it as the user for the
8 commit. Thanks, Alexander Wirt. Closes: #420428
9 * Fix aggregator to not warn when a feed contains no body content at all.
10 * Work around bug #420636 by, if XML::Parser crashes, running the feed
11 content though Encode::decode_utf8.
14 * Change basewiki CSS to not put a border around images used as links.
17 * Move the footer div to enclose tags and links too.
18 * More style sheet updates, remove the hack that used the tags div to create

30 * Add a graphviz plugin.
32 * Enhance helponformatting and related documentation to supply more
33 information about available preprocessor directives.
34 * Add myself as a co-maintainer, with Joey's approval.
37 * Add support for PROFILE=1 to the Makefile, this turns on profiling of the
38 wiki build using Devel::Profiler (Dprof can't handle ikiwiki).
39 * Add a new %destsources hash, which maps between a destination file and
40 the source page used to create it, ie it's the reverse of %renderedfiles.
41 * Use %destsources in htmllink and urlto for 20-50% speedup. Thanks
42 Josh Triplett for the idea.
43 * Optimise displaytime, trimming maybe 6% off the build time.
46 * Conflicts/Replaces/Provides the unofficial ikiwiki-plugin-table
47 package, because ikiwiki now provides the table plugin, and thus has
48 a file overlap with ikiwiki-plugin-table.
49 * Add libtext-csv-perl to Suggests, for the table plugin.
50 * Add libdigest-sha1-perl to Suggests, for sparkline and graphviz.
51 * Add libtext-typography-perl to Suggests for the typography plugin.
54 * Add postformtext parameter to inline.
55 * Internal version number and installdir substitutions were lost, fix.
56 * Apply patch from Ethan to improve an error message that should never
58 * Patch from Tuomov to link to the directory in feeds when usedirs is in
59 effect. Note that this changes permalinks, so if you are already using
60 usedirs you'll have to deal with that on upgrade to this version.
61 * Add feedshow parameter to inline, which can be useful for eg, removing
62 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.
63 * Add .dpkg-tmp to prune regexp, so that if ikiwiki is run right as it's
64 being upgraded by dpkg it will ignore dpkg temp files in the basewiki.

68 ikiwiki (1.49) unstable; urgency=low
71 * Add --post-commit option, which allows for the case of a split web server
72 and RCS server (or a push mirror). With this the RCS server can have a
73 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
74 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
75 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.
76 * Add a templates page to the basewiki. It will automatically list all
77 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
78 * Include the note template in the basewiki.
79 * Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
80 * Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
81 self-documenting, listing the available variables.
82 * Hide excess backlinks and expand using CSS trick; control quantiy via
83 the numbacklinks setting.
84 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
85 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"
86 option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
87 output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.
88 * Fix a bug in the img plugin that caused thumbnailed files to not be
90 * Make the OpenID library a reccommendation of the Debian package, rather
91 than just a suggests, since OpenID is enabled by default.
92 * Fix a bug that caused link(foo) to succeed if page foo did not exist.
93 * Fix tags to page names that contain special characters.
96 * Use pngcrush and optipng on all PNG files.
97 * Add neutral smileys ":|" and ":-|", and question icon smiley "(?)",
98 with images taken from phpBB (GPL) and converted with gif2png.
99 * Improvements to Description in debian/control:
100 * Note that some plugins have additional dependencies, found among the
101 Recommends and Suggests.
102 * ikiwiki supports both RSS and Atom feeds.
104 * Add Homepage field.
105 * Add XS-Vcs-Browser field.
108 * Updated French translation from JLC. Closes: #417982
109 * Reorder the icon in the template above the stylesheets, to avoid icon
110 flashing during page load.
111 * Fix smiley plugin to scan smileys.mdwn after it's updated, which fixes
112 a bug caused by committing changes to smilies.mdwn.
113 * Fix display of escaped wikilinks containing anchors.
116 * Remove stray semicolon in linkmap.pm.

122 * Fix link() PageSpecs to not just look at the raw link text, but at where
123 that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
124 could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
125 relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.
126 * This required changing the match_* interface, adding a third parameter.
127 * Allow link() PageSpecs to match relative, as is allowed with globs.
128 * Add postform option to inline plugin.
129 * Add an bug tracker to the softwaresite example.
130 * Make ikiwiki's stylesheet support printing by hiding parts of the page
131 that shouldn't appear in a printout: Search box, actions bar,
132 blog post form, tags, backlinks, and feed buttons.
133 * Finally fixed the longstanding inline removal bug.
134 * Renamed %oldpagemtime to a more accurately named %pagemtime and fix it to
135 actually store pages' mtimes.
136 * Add "mtime" sort parameter to inline plugin.
137 * Fix mercurial backend to deal with empty commit messages.

143 * Fix a security hole that allowed insertion of unsafe content via the meta
144 plugins's support for inserting html link and meta tags. Now such content
145 is passed through the htmlscrubber like everything else.
146 * Unfortunatly, that means that some valid uses of those tags are no longer
147 usable, and special case methods needed to be added for including
148 stylesheets, and for doing openid delegation. If you use either of these
149 in your wiki, it will need to be modified. See the meta plugin docs

156 * Fix a bug with inlined create page links, including Discussion links on
157 blog post pages. The links will now create pages relative to the page that
158 actually contains the link.
159 * French update. Closes: #414597
160 * Fix some broken logic in cgi creation of a subpage when a toplevel page
161 with the same name already exists, and generally simplify the edit code.
162 * Make ikiwiki -verbose -setup with a setup file that enabled syslog logging
163 output the verbose build log to stdout, rather than to the syslog.
164 * Detect the case of two people independently creating the same page at the
165 same time, and let the second person resolve the conflict.
166 * Applied a patch from Michał to make the mercurial backend pass --quiet to

175 * Allow for underscores to appear in page titles, if encoded appropriately
176 (__95__) in filenames. Previously, all underscores were replaced with
177 spaces. Thanks, Enrico Zini for noticing that bug.
178 * Add "template" option to inline plugin to allow for use of customised
180 * Add titlepage template for inline plugin.
181 * Add preview parameter to preprocesser calls, use this rather than the
182 previous ugly hack used to avoid writing rss feeds in previews.
183 * Fix the img plugin to avoid overwriting images in previews. Instead it
184 does all the work to make sure the resizing works, and dummys up a resized
185 image using width and height attributes.
186 * Also fixes img preview display, the links were wrong in preview before.
187 * Add a sparkline plugin.
188 * Add a postsparkline plugin.
189 * The slash escaping when adding to a blog from the CGI was not working
190 since it ended up being double-escaped. Instead, just remove slashes.
191 * Fix some nasty issues with page name escaping during previewing
192 (introduced in 1.44).
193 * Add a table plugin, derived from the one written by Victor Moral.
194 * The underscore escaping support exposed a bug in edit links: Such links
195 were titlepage escaped in the urls, and then doubly escaped by the CGI
196 when editing. To fix this, I removed the titlepage escaping in the edit
198 * That means that *every edit link* on the wiki is potentially changed.

202 was enabled and tried to lock the already locked wiki.

208 * Patch by Ben to fix validaton of atom feeds by fixing the category tags.
209 * Add a openidlogin-bg.gif to wikiicons and have the stylesheet use it for the
210 OpenID login form rather than linking to a remote logo, to avoid various
211 issues. Since there is not yet a license for the actual OpenID logo, this
212 file is currently a blank image. Users who want to can copy
213 http://openid.net/login-bg.gif into their wiki.
214 * Allow setting NOTAINT=1 when building the wiki to remove taint checking
215 flags, which can be useful on some hosting providers.
216 * Fix a bug that made links like [[0|foo]] use "foo" as the link text,
218 * Changed calling convention for httmllink slightly. The first three
219 parameters remain the same, but additional options are now passed in using
221 * Change plugin interface version to 1.02 to reflect this change.
222 * Add a new anchor option to htmllink. Thanks Ben for the idea.
223 * Support anchors in wikilinks.
224 * Add a "more" plugin based on one contributed by Ben to allow implementing
225 those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.
226 * Don't error out if estcmd fails, just print a warning message. estcmd is
227 too fragile to let it kill ikiwiki.
228 * Make img plugin not fail immediately if Image::Magick is not available.
229 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.
230 * Detect old versions of xgettext and avoid using them.
231 * perl is broken: print "" || die fails! Work around this insanity.
232 * Smarter detection of no-op changes to po files.
233 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
234 dropdown when creating a new page.
235 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
236 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
237 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
238 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
239 (except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the
240 commit hook would have done.

255 * Allow plugins to add new types of tests that can be used in PageSpecs.
256 * Add a "conditional" plugin, which allows displaying text if a condition
257 is true. It is enabled by default so conditional can be used in the
259 * Use conditionals in the template for plugins, so that plugin pages
260 say if they're currently enabled or not, and in various other places
262 * Updated Spanish translation.
263 * Make the basewiki be full of symlinks to pages that should be the same
264 in the doc wiki. This will allow direct edits to alter the base wiki
265 without manual munging.
266 * Fix the template, toggle, and conditional plugins to filter text before
268 * Fix smiley plugin to support smileys at the very beginning or end of
270 * Allow multiple tag settings to appear in a single page.
271 * Many changes to make ikiwiki very resistant to write failures
272 including out of disk space situations. ikiwiki should never leave
273 truncated files, and if the error occurs during a web-based file edit,
274 the user will be given an opportunity to retry.
275 Inspired by the many ways Moin Moin destroys itself when out of disk. :-)
276 * Fix syslogging of errors.

278 * Add a prettydate plugin that formats dates in a more readable fashion.
279 (I had to get a pretty date somehow today..)

282 of perl are vulnerable and it is not known to really be exploitable from

298 * Remove the anonok config setting. This is now implemented by a new
299 "anonok" plugin. Anyone with a wiki allowing anonymous edits should
300 change their configs to enable this new plugin.
301 * Add an opendiscussion plugin that allows anonymous users to edit
302 discussion pages, on a wiki that otherwise wouldn't allow it.
303 * Lots of CGI code reorg and cleanup.
304 * Avoid using lots of memory when copying large non-html files.
305 Yes, you can keep videos in the wiki..
306 * Add feedshow option to allow reducing the number of items included in

309 PageSpecs, by using "./".
310 * pagespec_match() has grown a new third parameter to support this.
311 * Add "reverse" option to inline to invert sort orders.

313 to be used as close to public domain as possible.

316 * Fix a security hole that allowed a web user to edit images and other
317 non-page format files in the wiki. To exploit this, the file already had
318 to exist in the wiki, and the web user would need to somehow use the web
319 based editor to replace it with malicious content.

336 chdiring to the srcdir (which wasn't right when merging in a subdir).

556 instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
558 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
559 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
560 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
562 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
563 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the

671 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
672 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
673 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
674 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
675 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
676 like a proper perl module should.
677 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
678 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
679 export some other things.
680 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
681 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
682 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
683 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.

685 to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from

770 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
771 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
772 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
773 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
774 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
775 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
776 multi-line quoted values.
777 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
778 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
779 * Add a template plugin.
780 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
781 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
783 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
784 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
785 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
786 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
787 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
788 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
789 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
790 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
791 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
792 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
793 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
794 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.

796 from a different directory.

865 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
866 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
867 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
868 forcing the link to lowercase.
869 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
870 with a given name exists.

1020 The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
1021 also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
1022 - Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
1024 - Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
1025 foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
1026 * Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlined pages also
1028 * Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
1029 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
1030 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
1031 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
1032 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
1033 different than the source page for inlined pages.
1034 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink
1035 appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
1036 properly, with correct links generated.

1042 * Run page through any relevant filters when generating a page preview.
1043 * Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
1044 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
1045 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
1046 that is independant of wikitext.
1047 * Fix CamelCase regexp to not break [[FooBar|BazBar]] WikiLinks.

1051 ikiwiki (1.9) unstable; urgency=low
1053 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
1054 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
1055 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
1056 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
1057 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
1058 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
1059 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
1060 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
1061 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
1062 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
1063 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
1064 area, and also way slow.
1065 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
1067 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
1068 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
1069 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)
1070 * Use form->field consistently, not form->param.
1071 * Patch from Recai to allow selection of page type when creating a new page.

1077 ikiwiki (1.8) unstable; urgency=low
1079 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
1080 for a page not being an orphan.
1081 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1082 about changes to rss feeds.
1083 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1084 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1085 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1086 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1087 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1088 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1089 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1090 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
1091 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1092 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
1094 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
1095 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1096 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1097 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1098 getting in the way of the preview.
1099 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
1101 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1102 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1103 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1104 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1106 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1107 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1108 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1109 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1110 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1111 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1112 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1113 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1114 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1115 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1116 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1117 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1118 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1119 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1120 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1121 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1122 No code changes involved.
1123 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1124 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.
1125 * Memoize abs2rel, which is still kinda slow, for another 30% speedup
1126 in time to build the doc wiki.

1134 changed some output.

1139 ikiwiki (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
1141 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1142 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1143 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1144 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1146 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1147 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1148 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1149 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1150 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1151 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1153 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1154 given the readfile fix.
1155 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1156 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1158 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1159 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1160 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1161 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1162 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1164 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
1166 * New SVG logo from Recai.

1172 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
1173 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
1174 timezone, not as GMT.
1175 * More security review.
1176 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1177 for some handy stuff like:
1178 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1179 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1180 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1181 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1182 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1183 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1184 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1185 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1186 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1188 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1189 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1190 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1191 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1192 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1193 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
1194 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
1195 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
1196 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
1197 * Doc updates for git.
1198 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
1200 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
1201 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
1202 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

1206 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
1208 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
1209 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
1210 should be always valid again now.
1211 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
1212 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
1213 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
1214 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1215 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
1216 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
1217 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
1219 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
1220 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
1222 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
1223 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
1224 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
1225 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
1227 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1228 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1229 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1230 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1231 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1232 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1233 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1234 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1236 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1237 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1238 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1240 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1241 relative to the inlining page.)
1242 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
1243 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
1244 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

1262 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
1264 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1265 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1266 on upgrade to this version.
1267 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1268 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
1269 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1270 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
1271 plugins) during a page render.
1272 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
1273 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
1275 * Added a plugin system.
1276 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
1277 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
1278 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
1279 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
1280 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
1282 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
1283 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
1284 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
1285 different location) already exists.
1286 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
1287 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
1288 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1289 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
1290 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
1291 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1292 * Smart globlist merging.
1293 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1294 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1295 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1296 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1297 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1298 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1299 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1300 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1301 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1303 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.

1308 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
