3 The ikiwiki zombie army release.
5 * Add liblwpx-paranoidagent-perl to recommends of Debian package,
6 this is needed to do OpenID really securely.
7 * ikiwiki.setup is licensed same as the basewiki, not GPLed.
8 * inline: Add timeformat parameter to control how the ctime of
9 inlined pages is displayed. Closes: #451019
10 * Add wrappergroup config option, which can be used to cause wrappers
11 to be created owned by some group other than the default. Useful
12 then there's a shared repository with access controlled by a group,
13 to let ikiwiki run setgid to that group.

19 ikiwiki (2.12) unstable; urgency=low
22 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
23 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
24 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
25 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
26 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
27 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
28 stay the same for the duration of the function.
29 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
30 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
31 * Improve the RecentChanges display for git merges, by passing -c instead
32 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no
34 * Don't truncate git commit messages to the first line in RecentChanges,
35 show the full message.
36 * map: Recent changes caused unnecessary ul's to be inserted for items
37 that were all at the same level, fix. Closes: #449285
40 * Fix table plugin to not generate an unbalanced tbody tag with header=no
41 * Add xmlns attribute on html element in templates; pages can now
45 * In the example setup file, use mode 6755 for the git post-update hook.
46 It needs to be setgid if the master repo is a shared repository, so
47 that pushes into the working copy repository happen as the same group,
48 avoiding permissions problems.
49 * The first git commit legitimately has no parents. Avoid recentchanges
50 spewing uninitialised value warnings and debug messages about it.
51 Dummying up a parent of 0000000 allows gitweb to work too.

57 * Correct a pair of logic errors that triggered if svnpath was empty.
58 * If gitorigin_branch is set to the empty string, don't push or pull.
59 Useful for laptop clones of remote wikis.
60 * Add a calendar plugin, contributed by Manoj Srivastava.
61 * Reformat calendar plugin to ikiwiki conventions.
62 * The calendar plugin made *every* page depend on every other page,
63 which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
64 calculations (I hope.)
65 * Removed manual ctime statting code, and just have the calendar plugin use
67 * Ikiwiki has moved into a git repository.
68 * postsparkline: Avoid a confusing error message if no pages match
69 and instead show an empty graph.
70 * Add handling of feeds for nested inlines, as well as support for a
71 single page containing two different feeds.
72 * Also fixed some places in inline that failed to use destpage correctly.
73 * ikiwiki-mass-rebuild: Patch from HenrikBrixAndersen to fix order
74 of permissions dropping code to work on FreeBSD.
75 * ikiwiki-mass-rebuild: Don't clear PATH from the environment.

83 * Tidy ctime debug output for git.
84 * French translation update. Closes: #445923
85 * Fix --get-ctime with git, needed to remove srcdir from filename.
86 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
87 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
88 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
89 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
90 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
91 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
92 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
94 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
95 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
96 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.
97 * Add a "createlink" class attribute to the span for wikilinks pointing
98 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that
100 * Rewritten rst plugin by madduck is a python program that communicates with
101 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that
102 had to fork python for every rst page render. Note that if you use
103 the rst plugin, you now need to have the RPC::XML perl module installed.
104 * Danish translation from Jonas Smedegaard. Closes: #446952
105 * Support git authors of the form "joey <joey>", which is common when
106 importing from a svn repo.

112 * Fix copyright and licence styling.
113 * tag: Add taglink preprocessor directive, supporting visible tag links.
115 * map: Fully specify paths to links to avoid issues when the bestlink
116 didn't point to the correct page.
117 * map: Render pages on the way to subpages whose parent pages
118 are not included in the map. Include special styling for such pages.
119 * map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
120 * Add class option to htmllink().
121 * img: Allow link=somepage to cause the image to link to a given page.
122 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking
123 entirely. Unless you have a page named "no"..
124 * Save index after previewing page edit, since even previewing can create
125 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
126 the teximg plugin's error log file.
127 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
128 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
129 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and
130 was ambiguous with preprocessor directives.
131 * camelcase: Tighten regexp to avoid false positives. WikiWords are only
132 linkified now if they are preceeded by whitespace.

138 * Redid the debian/copyright file, using the proposed new copyright file
139 format. Included many details not previously listed in the old file.
140 * inline: add feedonly option, set feedonly=yes to get only the feed button
141 but not inline the pages.
142 * meta: Support license and copyright information. The information will
143 be shown in the page footer. HTML will also be inserted that should
144 support the rel=license microformat as well as the HTML spec's
146 * table plugin: Actually specify the delimiter when parsing CSV.
147 * table plugin: The previous version broke WikiLinks inside quoted values.
148 Fix this by linkifying CSV data after parsing it, while DSV data is still
149 linkified before parsing.

157 * Support for looking in multiple directories for underlay files.
158 * Plugins can add new directories to the search path with the add_underlay
160 * Split out smiley underlay files into a separate underlay, so if the plugin
161 isn't used, the wiki isn't bloated with all those files.
162 * Allow -cgi -wrapper to be passed on the command line to generate a
164 * Fix some taint issues with generating wrappers using the command line.
165 * Don't allow newlines in link text in a wikilink.
166 * Tables containing links with a link text were misparsed, because the "|"
167 in the wikilink looked like a table field separator. Avoid this ambiguity
168 by linkifying the data before parsing it as a table.
169 * Turn on allow_loose_quotes in the table plugin's Text::CSV object,
170 so that links from wikilinks don't confuse the parser.
171 * mercurial: Pass --style default to hg log to ensure right format is used.
172 * mercurial: Fix rcs_getctime (thanks, bma)
175 * Use git-log rather than the shell, git-rev-list, and git-diff-tree.
176 Patch by Jamey Sharp <jamey@minilop.net>.
177 * Renames from git-diff-tree aren't handled, so don't ask for them.
179 * Handle operating in sub-trees of a git repository.
180 When looking for git commits that affect the wiki, only include changes
181 that affect the ikiwiki source directory. If that is not the top-level
182 directory in this git repository, strip off the prefix as given by
183 `git-rev-parse --show-prefix` from all names reported by git-log.
187 * Correct generation of RFC 3339 format times for atom/rss feeds. Always use
188 gmtime for these since a time zone is not specified.

218 * pagetemplate: don't display template name
219 * Add rel=tag attribute to tag links, supporting that microformat, as well
220 as allowing them to be styled specially. Thanks, NicolasLimare.
221 * Add sessioncgi hook.
222 * Move blog form code out of CGI.pm and into the inline plugin.

225 * The toc directive doesn't work well or make sense inside an inlined page.
226 Disable it when the page with the toc is nested inside another page.
227 * Apply a patch from NicolasLimare adding modification date tags to rss and
228 atom feeds, and also changing the publication time for a feed to the
229 newest modiciation time (was newest creation time).
230 * The patch also adds dcterms:creator to rss items that have a known author.
231 * Support pagespec "functions" with no parameters, like included() in the
233 * Add time=mtime option to postsparkline.
234 * Fix --libdir to work at the command line.
235 * Plugins can now be written as standalone external programs, which can
236 be written in any language that can do XML RPC.
237 * Change yet again how unhandled and escaped preprocessor directives are
238 re-output onto the page. Hopefully I finally got it right..
239 * Fix bug in deletion/move during edit code introduced in 1.44. Need to take
240 the underlaydir into account.
241 * Fix bug when editing file from underlaydir, need to rcs_add it even though
242 a page creation isn't occuring.
243 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
244 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
245 - add a title to the editpage form;
246 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
247 hooks, so we can add ours;
248 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
250 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template
251 (This was needed for compatability with a bug in CGI::FormBuilder
252 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
253 * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.
254 * Add color parameter to postsparkline. Closes: #438900
255 * Add proper Homepage field to Debian package (needs uber-new dpkg).
256 * Add monotone support, contributed by William Uther.
257 * Avoid ugly gettext messages if LANG is empty. Closes: #439035
258 * Added teximg plugin to generate images from latex code.
259 Contributed by Patrick Winnertz as a GSoC project.
260 * Call the formbuilder hook for the edit page.
261 * Call decode_form_utf8 before running formbuilder_setup hooks.
262 * Add editdiff plugin contributed by Jeremie Koenig.
263 * Fix it to not leak path info.
264 * Add embed plugin, which allows embedding content from google maps, video,
265 calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they
266 use unsafe tags, the embed plugin overrides it for trusted sites.

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

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

333 * Change the aggregate plugin's locking strategy. Now it defers loading state
334 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
335 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
336 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
337 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
338 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
339 always be tracked correctly.
340 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
342 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
343 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
344 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
345 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
346 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
347 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
348 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
349 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
350 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
351 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
352 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
353 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
354 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
355 not (if set from the page filename).
356 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
357 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
358 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
359 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

551 the numbacklinks setting.
552 * Finally apply the index.html patch, with thanks to everyone who worked
553 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"

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

652 does all the work to make sure the resizing works, and dummys up a resized

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

693 those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.

700 * Smarter detection of no-op changes to po files.
701 * Elegant patch from Ethan to clean up the display of page names in the
702 dropdown when creating a new page.
703 * Since the CGI had to drop the wiki lock to avoid deadlocking the
704 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
705 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
706 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook

1031 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the

1041 * Install the source of the examples into /usr/share/doc/ikiwiki/examples.
1042 * Add perlmagick to build-depends so syntax check of img plugin works.
1044 * Improve login/register process, the login dialog has only name and
1045 password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
1046 field, and is less confusing.
1047 * Implemented expiry options for aggregate plugin.
1048 * Use precalculated backlinks info when determining if files need an update
1049 due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if

1064 an exception for the wiki's toplevel index page, which will still use the
1065 wikiname as the feed title.
1066 Overriding the page title with meta title already overrode the rss feed

1069 down to the bare essentials. Useful for handling large images on websites.
1070 * Sanitize possibly problimatic characters out of the polygen grammar names,
1071 just in case. Should not be exploitable anyway, since it only tries to run
1072 polygen after finding the specified grammar file.

1099 Useful for eg, large sites with their own previously existing user auth
1100 setup. Closes: #384534
1101 * Change %renderedfiles to store an array of files rendered from a given
1102 source file, to allow tracking of extra rendered files like rss feeds.
1103 * Note that plugins that accessed this variable will need to be updated!
1104 The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
1105 As few plugins use %renderedfiles I haven't done anything else to ensure
1106 compatability of old plugins.
1107 * Add will_render function to the plugin interface, used to register that a
1108 page renders a destination file, and do some security checks. Previously

1139 * Work on firming up the plugin interface:
1140 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
1141 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
1142 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
1143 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
1144 like a proper perl module should.
1145 - Use the other functions at your own risk.
1146 - This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
1147 export some other things.
1148 * Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
1149 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
1150 * Add a module version number to IkiWiki, so you can "use IkiWiki '1.00'"
1151 to declare which version of the interface your plugin needs.
1152 * Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly encouraged
1153 to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symbols from

1176 the original markdown or the one in Debian.
1177 * Version the libcgi-session-perl dependency, some features that need
1178 the new version are used in some cases (sslcookie).

1237 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
1238 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
1239 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
1240 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
1241 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
1242 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
1243 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
1244 multi-line quoted values.
1245 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
1246 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
1247 * Add a template plugin.
1248 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
1249 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1251 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
1252 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1253 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1254 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1255 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1256 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1257 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
1258 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
1259 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
1260 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1261 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
1262 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
1263 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
1264 from a different directory.

1269 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
1270 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
1271 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
1272 to the preferences page.
1273 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.

1332 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1333 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1334 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1335 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1336 forcing the link to lowercase.
1337 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1338 with a given name exists.
1339 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,

1510 * Run page through any relevant filters when generating a page preview.
1511 * Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
1512 default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
1513 this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
1514 that is independant of wikitext.
1515 * Fix CamelCase regexp to not break [[FooBar|BazBar]] WikiLinks.

1519 ikiwiki (1.9) unstable; urgency=low
1521 * Improve display of parentlinks and page title of toplevel index page.
1522 * Patch from Faidon to use svn --limit when possible for recentchanges,
1523 speeds up recentchanges a lot for wikis with more history.
1524 * Patch from Recai to fix utf8 issues in git backend.
1525 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
1526 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
1527 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
1528 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
1529 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
1530 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for
1531 RecentChanges. Avoid using XML::SAX::PurePerl, which is buggy in this
1532 area, and also way slow.
1533 * Match 'web commit from' in SVN and git, these are web commits too.
1535 * Consolidated all decode_utf8 in FormBuilder's fields to make the code more
1536 readable and avoid future mistakes. The patch seems to work and for the
1537 first time I have a UTF-8 username ;-) (Faidon)
1538 * Use form->field consistently, not form->param.
1539 * Patch from Recai to allow selection of page type when creating a new page.
1540 Default page type is inherited from the link clicked on to create the new

1545 ikiwiki (1.8) unstable; urgency=low
1547 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
1548 for a page not being an orphan.
1549 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1550 about changes to rss feeds.
1551 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1552 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1553 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1554 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1555 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1556 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1557 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1558 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
1559 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1560 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
1562 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
1563 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1564 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1565 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1566 getting in the way of the preview.
1567 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
1569 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1570 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1571 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1572 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1574 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1575 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1576 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1577 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1578 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1579 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1580 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1581 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1582 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1583 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1584 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1585 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1586 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1587 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1588 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1589 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1590 No code changes involved.
1591 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1592 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.
1593 * Memoize abs2rel, which is still kinda slow, for another 30% speedup
1594 in time to build the doc wiki.

1602 changed some output.

1607 ikiwiki (1.6) unstable; urgency=low
1609 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1610 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1611 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1612 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1614 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1615 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1616 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1617 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1618 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1619 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1621 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1622 given the readfile fix.
1623 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1624 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1626 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1627 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1628 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1629 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1630 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1632 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide
1634 * New SVG logo from Recai.

1640 * Add --timeformat config option to allow changing how dates are displayed.
1641 Note that as a side effect, dates will now be displayed using the local
1642 timezone, not as GMT.
1643 * More security review.
1644 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1645 for some handy stuff like:
1646 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1647 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1648 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1649 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1650 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1651 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1652 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1653 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1654 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1656 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1657 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1658 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1659 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1660 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1661 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
1662 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
1663 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
1664 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
1665 * Doc updates for git.
1666 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
1668 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
1669 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still
1670 be utf-8 issues with the preferences page though.

1674 ikiwiki (1.4) unstable; urgency=low
1676 * Tell HTML::Scrubber to treat "/" as a valid attribute which is its
1677 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
1678 should be always valid again now.
1679 * The page name and parent links has switched from using a <h1> to a styled
1680 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
1681 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
1682 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
1683 around with adding new stuff to the page template.
1684 * Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
1685 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
1687 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
1688 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
1690 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
1691 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
1692 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
1693 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
1695 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
1696 fix and make it a bit more flexible
1697 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1698 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1699 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1700 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1701 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1702 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1704 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1705 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1706 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1708 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1709 relative to the inlining page.)
1710 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
1711 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
1712 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

1730 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
1732 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1733 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1734 on upgrade to this version.
1735 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1736 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
1737 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
1738 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
1739 plugins) during a page render.
1740 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
1741 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
1743 * Added a plugin system.
1744 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
1745 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
1746 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
1747 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
1748 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
1750 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
1751 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
1752 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
1753 different location) already exists.
1754 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
1755 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
1756 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
1757 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
1758 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
1759 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
1760 * Smart globlist merging.
1761 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
1762 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
1763 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
1764 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
1765 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
1766 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
1767 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
1768 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
1769 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
1771 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
1772 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
1773 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link

1776 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
1777 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
