219 * Avoid multiple ikiwiki cgi processes piling up, eating all memory,
220 and thrashing, by making the cgi wrapper wait on a cgilock.
221 If you had to set apache's MaxClients low to avoid ikiwiki thrashing your
222 server, you can now turn it up to a high value.
223 * Stop busy-waiting in lockwiki, as this could delay ikiwiki from waking up
224 for up to one second. The bailout code is no longer needed after above
226 * Remove support for unused optional wait parameter from lockwiki.
227 * aggregate: Try to query XML::Feed for the base url when derelevatising
228 links. Since this needs the just released XML::Feed 0.3, as well
229 as a not yet released XML::RSS, it will fall back to the old method
230 if no xml:base info is available.
231 * meta: Plugin is now enabled by default since the basewiki uses it.
232 * txt: Do not encode quotes when filtering the txt, as that broke

252 relative, in a very nice way, if I say so myself.
253 * Optimise the no-op post-commit hook, to speed up web edits by a fraction
255 * git: Allow [[sha1_commit]] to be used in the diffurl, to support cgit.
256 * shortcut: Fix display of shortcuts while previewing.
257 * Plugins that used to override displaytime should instead override
258 formattime. displaytime will call that, and may wrap markup around the

262 * toggle: Stop embedding the full toggle code on each page using it, and
263 move it to toggle.js in the javascript underlay.
264 * recentchanges: Make feed links point back to anchors on the recentchanges
266 * Fix issue with utf-8 in wikiname breaking session cookies, by
267 entity-encoding the wikiname in the session cookie.
268 * Use the pure perl Data::Dumper when generating setup files to ensure that
269 utf-8 characters are written out as such, and not as the encoded perl
270 strings the C Data::Dumper produces.
271 * inline: Only the last feed link was put on the page, fix this to include
272 all feed links. So rss will be included along with atom, and pages with
273 multiple feeds will get links added for all feeds.
274 * tag: When tagbase is set, force the links created by tagging to point at
275 the toplevel tagbase, and not closer subpages. The html links already went
276 there, but internally the links were not recorded as absolute, which could
277 cause confusing backlinks etc.
278 * Add an inject function, that can be used by plugins that want to
279 replace one of ikiwiki's functions with their own version.
280 (This is a scary thing that grubs through the symbol table, and replaces
281 all exported occurances of a function with the injected version.)

298 page, but that's out of scope for ikiwiki.)

302 by plugins. Closes: #502047

324 scrubber acting on a set of pages.

326 * Beautify urls used in various places. (smcv)
327 * Export pagetitle, titlepage, linkpage.
328 * htmltidy: Avoid returning undef if tidy fails. Also avoid returning the
329 untidied content if tidy crashes. In either case, it seems best to tidy
330 the content to nothing.
331 * htmltidy: Avoid spewing tidy errors to stderr.
332 * Reorganize index file, add a format version field. Upgrades to the new
333 index format should be transparent.
334 * Add %wikistate, which is like %pagestate except not specific to a given
335 page, and is preserved across rebuilds.
336 * editpage: Be more aggressive (and less buggy) about cleaning up
337 temporary files rendered during page preview.
338 * Add an indexpages option, which causes foo/index.mdwn to be the source
339 for page foo when foo.mdwn doesn't exist. Also, when it's enabled,
340 creating a new page will save it to foo/index.mdwn by default.

578 the former, while slower, has a much better html parser that avoids
580 * Move yesno function out of inline and into IkiWiki core, not exported.
581 * Error handling improvement for preprocess hooks. It's now safe to call
582 error() from such hooks; it will cause a nicely formatted error message
583 to be inserted into the page.
584 * Cut the size of the binary package in half by excluding pages for bugs

644 impossible to tell between some pages, like "foo/bar" and "foo__47__bar",

664 input is flagged as utf-8, but contains invalid characters such as 0x92.
665 To prevent it from crashing, re-encode the content before calling it,
666 which will ensure that it's really utf-8.

1015 * cgi hooks are now run before ikiwiki state is loaded.
1016 * This allows locking the wiki before loading state, which avoids some
1017 tricky locking code when saving a web edit.
1018 * poll: This plugin turns out to have edited pages w/o doing any locking.
1019 Oops. Convert it from a cgi to a sessioncgi hook, which will work
1021 * recentchanges: Improve handling of links on the very static changes pages
1022 by thunking to the CGI, which can redirect to the page, or allow it to be
1023 created if it doesn't exist.
1024 * recentchanges: Exipre all *._change pages, even if the directory
1025 they're in has changed.
1026 * aggregate: Lots of changes; aggregation can now run without locking the
1027 wiki, and there is a separate aggregatelock to prevent multiple concurrent
1029 * monotone changes by Brian May:
1030 - On commits, replace "mtn sync" bidirectional with "mtn push" single
1031 direction. No need to pull changes when doing a commit. mtn sync
1032 is still called in rcs_update.
1033 - Support for viewing differences via patches using viewmtn.
1034 * inline: When previewing, still call will_render on rss/atom files,
1035 just avoid actually writing the files. This is necessary because ikiwiki
1036 saves state after a preview (in case it actually *did* write files),
1037 and if will_render isn't called its security checks will get upset
1038 when the page is saved. Thanks to Edward Betts for his help tracking this
1040 * inline: Add new `allowrss` and `allowatom` config options. These can be
1041 used if you want a wiki that doesn't default to generating rss or atom
1042 feeds, but that does allow them to be turned on for specific blogs.
1043 * Don't die if running with --getctime and rcs_getctime throws an error.
1044 There are several cases (recentchanges files, aggregated files)
1045 where some source files are not in revision control.
1046 * Page templates can now use CTIME to show when the page was created.

1056 * Old versions of git-init don't support --git-dir or GIT_DIR with
1057 --bare. Change ikiwiki-makerepo to use a method that should work with
1058 those older versions too.
1059 * aggregate: Don't let feeds set creation times for pages in the future.
1060 * Add full parser for git diff-tree output (Brian Downing)
1061 * aggregate: Fork a child process to handle the aggregation. This simplifies
1062 the code, since that process can change internal state as needed, and
1063 it will automatically be cleaned up for the parent process, which proceeds
1064 to render the changes.
1067 * Add trailing comma to commented-out umask in sample ikiwiki.setup, so
1068 that uncommenting it does not break the setup file.
1071 * inline: The template can check for FIRST and LAST, which will be
1072 set for the first and last inlined page. Useful for templates that build
1073 tables and the like.
1074 * prettydate,ddate: Don't ignore time formats passed to displaytime
1076 * Pages with extensions starting with "_" are internal-use, and will
1077 not be rendered or web-edited, or matched by normal pagespecs.
1078 * Add "internal()" pagespec that matches internal-use pages.
1079 * RecentChanges is now a static html page, that's updated whenever a commit
1080 is made to the wiki. It's built as a blog using inline, so it can have
1081 an rss feed that users can subscribe to.
1082 * Removed support for sending commit notification mails. Along with it went
1083 the svnrepo and notify settings, though both will be ignored if left in
1084 setup files. Also gone with it is the "user()" pagespec.
1086 * meta: Add pagespec functions to match against title, author, authorurl,
1087 license, and copyright. This can be used to create custom RecentChanges.
1088 * meta: To support the pagespec functions, metadata about pages has to be
1089 retained as pagestate.
1090 * Fix encoding bug when pagestate values contained spaces.

1100 feeds if available. (rss doesn't allow such info on a per-post basis)
1101 * Also include overall copyright/license and author info in atom feeds if
1103 * meta: Allow copyright/license metadata to contain arbitrary markup.
1104 * Call preprocessor hooks in void context during the scan pass. This allows
1105 the hook to determine if it's just scanning, and avoid expensive
1107 * img: Detect scan mode and avoid generating and writing the image file
1108 during it, for a 2x speedup.
1109 * meta: Run in scan mode again (more intelligently) and re-add support for

1112 that needs to use it. This was broken in version 2.16.
1113 * template: Remove bogus htmlize pass added in 2.16.
1114 * template: Htmlize template variables, but also provide a raw version
1115 via `<TMPL_VAR raw_variable>`.
1116 * When htmlizing text, if the input is a single line with no newline,
1117 and the htmlizer (such as markdown and textile) generates a html
1118 paragraph, remove it. This allows removing several hacks from other
1119 plugins that htmlize fragements of pages.
1120 * In preferences, allow the subscriptions and email fields to be cleared.

1131 returned (and not run in some cases) rather than the plugins directly
1132 forcing a user to log in.
1133 * opendiscussion: allow editing of the toplevel discussion page,

1147 * Split error messages for failures to drop real uid and gid.
1148 * Retry dropping uid and gid, possibly this will help with the "Resource
1149 temporarily unavailable" failures I've experienced under xen.
1150 * Stop testing Encode::is_utf8 in decode_form_utf8: That doesn't work.
1151 * decode_form_utf8 only fixed the utf-8 encoding for fields that were
1152 registered at the time it was called, which was before the
1153 formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded.
1154 But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook
1155 need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed
1156 to a decode_cgi_utf8, which is called on the cgi query object, before the
1157 form is set up, and decodes *all* cgi parameters.

1173 and supporting negated pagespecs and added whitespace.

1175 in a subdirectory. Patch by Larry Clapp.
1176 * aggregate: Fix stupid mistake introduced when converting it to use
1177 the needsbuild hook. This resulted in feeds not being removed when pages

1184 ikiwiki (2.16) unstable; urgency=low
1186 * Major basewiki reorganisation. Most pages moved into ikiwiki/ subdirectory
1187 to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
1188 * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
1189 * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
1191 * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #454181
1192 * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
1193 via the %pagestate hash.
1194 * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
1195 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
1196 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
1197 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
1198 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
1199 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
1200 wiki rebuild each midnight.
1201 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
1202 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
1203 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
1204 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
1205 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
1206 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
1207 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
1208 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
1209 (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
1210 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
1211 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
1213 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
1214 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
1215 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
1216 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
1217 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
1218 element in the html template. Closes: #454058
1219 * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
1220 * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
1221 * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
1222 * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
1223 creating a new page that's entirely empty.
1224 * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
1225 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
1226 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
1227 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
1228 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
1229 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
1230 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
1231 the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
1233 * meta: Improved data storage.
1234 * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
1235 stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
1236 liw's disappearing openids).
1237 * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.

1316 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
1317 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.

1321 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.

1377 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
1378 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
1379 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
1380 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
1381 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
1382 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
1383 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
1384 will avoid this bug.
1385 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
1386 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
1387 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.

1413 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking

1519 atom feeds, and also changing the publication time for a feed to the
1520 newest modiciation time (was newest creation time).
1521 * The patch also adds dcterms:creator to rss items that have a known author.

1533 a page creation isn't occuring.
1534 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
1535 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
1536 - add a title to the editpage form;
1537 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
1538 hooks, so we can add ours;
1539 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
1541 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template

1543 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)

1555 * Add embed plugin, which allows embedding content from google maps, video,
1556 calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they
1557 use unsafe tags, the embed plugin overrides it for trusted sites.

1590 most web sites serve ikiwiki xhtml files as text/html and mozilla browsers

1592 recommendations in appendix C of the XHTML spec. Closes: #432045

1594 * mercurial getctime is currently broken, apparently by some change in
1595 mercurial version 0.9.4. Turn the failing test case into a TODO test case.

1622 ikiwiki (2.2) unstable; urgency=low
1624 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
1625 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
1626 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
1627 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
1628 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
1629 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
1630 always be tracked correctly.
1631 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
1633 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
1634 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
1635 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
1636 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
1637 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
1638 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
1639 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
1640 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
1641 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
1642 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
1643 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
1644 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
1645 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
1646 not (if set from the page filename).
1647 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
1648 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
1649 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
1650 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

1759 back-compat for now.
1760 * The calling convention for functions in the IkiWiki::PageSpec namespace

1970 issues. Since there is not yet a license for the actual OpenID logo, this
1971 file is currently a blank image. Users who want to can copy

1974 flags, which can be useful on some hosting providers.

1978 parameters remain the same, but additional options are now passed in using

1983 * Add a "more" plugin based on one contributed by Ben to allow implementing
1984 those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.
1985 * Don't error out if estcmd fails, just print a warning message. estcmd is
1986 too fragile to let it kill ikiwiki.

1988 This lets ikiwiki not build depend on perlmagic.

1991 * Smarter detection of no-op changes to po files.
1992 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
1993 dropdown when creating a new page.
1994 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
1995 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
1996 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
1997 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
1998 (except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the
1999 commit hook would have done.

2433 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
2434 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,

2528 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
2529 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
2530 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
2531 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
2532 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
2533 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
2534 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
2535 multi-line quoted values.
2536 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
2537 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
2538 * Add a template plugin.
2539 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
2540 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
2542 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
2543 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
2544 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
2545 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
2546 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
2547 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
2548 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
2549 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
2550 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
2551 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
2552 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
2553 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
2554 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
2555 from a different directory.
2556 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.

2558 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
2559 * Added a ddate plugin.
2560 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
2561 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.

2563 to the preferences page.

2621 * Man page format fixups.
2622 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
2623 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
2624 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
2625 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
2626 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
2627 forcing the link to lowercase.
2628 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
2629 with a given name exists.
2630 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
2631 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages

2845 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
2846 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
2847 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the

2866 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2867 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
2868 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
2869 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
2870 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
2871 sanitise them, like any other page type.

2874 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
2875 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
2876 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
2877 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
2878 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
2879 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!

2901 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.

2903 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
2905 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
2906 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
2907 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
2908 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"

2917 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
2918 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
2919 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
2920 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
2921 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
2923 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
2925 * New SVG logo from Recai.

2931 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
2932 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
2933 timezone, not as GMT.
2934 * More security review.
2935 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
2936 for some handy stuff like:
2937 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
2938 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
2939 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
2940 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
2941 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
2942 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
2943 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
2944 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
2945 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
2947 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
2948 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
2949 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
2950 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
2951 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
2952 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
2953 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
2954 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
2955 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
2956 * Doc updates for git.
2957 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
2959 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
2960 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
2961 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

2965 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
2967 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
2968 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
2969 should be always valid again now.
2970 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
2971 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
2972 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
2973 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
2974 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
2975 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
2976 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
2978 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
2979 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
2981 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
2982 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
2983 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
2984 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
2986 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
2987 fix and make it a bit more flexible
2988 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
2989 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
2990 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
2991 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
2992 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
2993 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
2995 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
2996 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
2997 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
2999 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
3000 relative to the inlining page.)
3001 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
3002 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
3003 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

3021 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
3023 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
3024 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
3025 on upgrade to this version.
3026 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
3027 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
3028 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
3029 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
3030 plugins) during a page render.
3031 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
3032 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
3034 * Added a plugin system.
3035 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
3036 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
3037 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
3038 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
3039 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
3041 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
3042 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
3043 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
3044 different location) already exists.
3045 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
3046 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
3047 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
3048 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
3049 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
3050 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
3051 * Smart globlist merging.
3052 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
3053 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
3054 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
3055 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
3056 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
3057 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
3058 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
3059 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
3060 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
3062 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
3063 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
3064 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
3066 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
3067 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
3068 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
3069 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
3070 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
3071 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
