3 * Revert preservation of input file modification times in output files,
4 since this leads to too many problems with web caching, especially with
5 inlined pages. Properly solving this would involve tracking every page
6 that contributes to a page's content and using the youngest of them all,
7 as well as special cases for things like the version plugin, and it's just
9 * cgi hooks are now run before ikiwiki state is loaded.
10 * This allows locking the wiki before loading state, which avoids some
11 tricky locking code when saving a web edit.
12 * poll: This plugin turns out to have edited pages w/o doing any locking.
13 Oops. Convert it from a cgi to a sessioncgi hook, which will work
15 * aggregate: Revert use of forking to not save state, that was not the right
17 * recentchanges: Improve handling of links on the very static changes pages
18 by thunking to the CGI, which can redirect to the page, or allow it to be
19 created if it doesn't exist.

21 they're in has changed.

28 * Old versions of git-init don't support --git-dir or GIT_DIR with
29 --bare. Change ikiwiki-makerepo to use a method that should work with
30 those older versions too.
31 * aggregate: Don't let feeds set creation times for pages in the future.
32 * Add full parser for git diff-tree output (Brian Downing)
33 * aggregate: Fork a child process to handle the aggregation. This simplifies
34 the code, since that process can change internal state as needed, and
35 it will automatically be cleaned up for the parent process, which proceeds
36 to render the changes.
39 * Add trailing comma to commented-out umask in sample ikiwiki.setup, so
40 that uncommenting it does not break the setup file.
43 * inline: The template can check for FIRST and LAST, which will be
44 set for the first and last inlined page. Useful for templates that build
46 * prettydate,ddate: Don't ignore time formats passed to displaytime
48 * Pages with extensions starting with "_" are internal-use, and will
49 not be rendered or web-edited, or matched by normal pagespecs.
50 * Add "internal()" pagespec that matches internal-use pages.
51 * RecentChanges is now a static html page, that's updated whenever a commit
52 is made to the wiki. It's built as a blog using inline, so it can have
53 an rss feed that users can subscribe to.
54 * Removed support for sending commit notification mails. Along with it went
55 the svnrepo and notify settings, though both will be ignored if left in
56 setup files. Also gone with it is the "user()" pagespec.
58 * meta: Add pagespec functions to match against title, author, authorurl,
59 license, and copyright. This can be used to create custom RecentChanges.
60 * meta: To support the pagespec functions, metadata about pages has to be
61 retained as pagestate.
62 * Fix encoding bug when pagestate values contained spaces.
63 * Add support for bzr, written by Jelmer Vernooij. Thanks also to bma for
64 his independent work on bzr support.

72 feeds if available. (rss doesn't allow such info on a per-post basis)

75 * meta: Allow copyright/license metadata to contain arbitrary markup.
76 * Call preprocessor hooks in void context during the scan pass. This allows
77 the hook to determine if it's just scanning, and avoid expensive
79 * img: Detect scan mode and avoid generating and writing the image file
80 during it, for a 2x speedup.
81 * meta: Run in scan mode again (more intelligently) and re-add support for

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

100 user goes back from the signin screen and does something else.
101 * Improve behavior when trying to sign in with no cookies.
102 * Improved the canedit hook interface, allowing a callback function to be
103 returned (and not run in some cases) rather than the plugins directly
104 forcing a user to log in.
105 * opendiscussion: allow editing of the toplevel discussion page,
106 and, indirectly, allow creating new discussion pages.

119 * Split error messages for failures to drop real uid and gid.
120 * Retry dropping uid and gid, possibly this will help with the "Resource
121 temporarily unavailable" failures I've experienced under xen.
122 * Stop testing Encode::is_utf8 in decode_form_utf8: That doesn't work.
123 * decode_form_utf8 only fixed the utf-8 encoding for fields that were
124 registered at the time it was called, which was before the
125 formbuilder_setup hook. Fields added by the hook didn't get decoded.
126 But it can't be put after the hook either, since plugins using the hook
127 need to be able to use form values. To fix this dilemma, it's been changed
128 to a decode_cgi_utf8, which is called on the cgi query object, before the
129 form is set up, and decodes *all* cgi parameters.
130 * aggregate: Only save state if it was already loaded. This didn't used to

143 * conditional: Improve regexp testing for simple uses of pagespecs
144 that match only the page using the directive, adding 'included()'
145 and supporting negated pagespecs and added whitespace.

147 in a subdirectory. Patch by Larry Clapp.
148 * aggregate: Fix stupid mistake introduced when converting it to use
149 the needsbuild hook. This resulted in feeds not being removed when pages
150 were updated, and feeds sometimes being forgotten about.

158 * Major basewiki reorganisation. Most pages moved into ikiwiki/ subdirectory
159 to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
160 * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
161 * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
163 * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #454181
164 * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
165 via the %pagestate hash.
166 * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
167 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
168 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
169 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
170 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
171 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
172 wiki rebuild each midnight.
173 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
174 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
175 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
176 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
177 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
178 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
179 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
180 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
181 (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
182 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
183 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
185 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
186 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
187 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
188 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
189 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
190 element in the html template. Closes: #454058
191 * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
192 * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
193 * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
194 * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
195 creating a new page that's entirely empty.
196 * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
197 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
198 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
199 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
200 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
201 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
202 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
203 the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
205 * meta: Improved data storage.
206 * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
207 stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
208 liw's disappearing openids).
209 * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
210 * map: Don't inline images.
211 * brokenlinks: Don't list the same link multiple times. (%links might
212 contain multiple copies of the same link)

285 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
286 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
287 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
288 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
289 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
290 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
291 stay the same for the duration of the function.
292 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
293 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.

295 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no

350 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
351 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
352 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
353 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
354 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
355 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
357 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
358 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
359 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.

361 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that

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

388 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
389 the teximg plugin's error log file.
390 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
391 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
392 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and

502 * Fix bug in deletion/move during edit code introduced in 1.44. Need to take
503 the underlaydir into account.

505 a page creation isn't occuring.
506 * Various minor fixes and stylistic improvements suggested by Perl::Critic.
507 * Applied Jeremie Koenig's pluggable editpage buttons patch:
508 - add a title to the editpage form;
509 - pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
510 hooks, so we can add ours;
511 - relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
513 - de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template

515 3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
516 * Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.

526 * Fix it to not leak path info.
527 * Add embed plugin, which allows embedding content from google maps, video,
528 calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they
529 use unsafe tags, the embed plugin overrides it for trusted sites.

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

597 until the wiki is building and already locked, unless it's aggregating.
598 When aggregating, it does not wait for the lock if it cannot get it, and
599 instead exits, to prevent aggregating processes from piling up.
600 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
601 * Correct bug in the img plugin that caused dependencies on images to not
602 always be tracked correctly.
603 * Deal better with rebuilds that involve moving files; track and clean up the
605 * Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
606 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
607 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
608 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages
609 creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
610 might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.
611 * Fix FTBFS in test suite introduced in last version. Closes: #425891
612 * Apply a patch from Carl Worth allowing a class attribute to be passed
613 through the img plugin. Also allow the id attribute to be passed through.
614 * More consistent encoding of titles in rss and atom feeds. Don't use
615 ESCAPE=HTML for titles in the templates for these feeds, and instead
616 escape the title going in to the template. Previously, the title was
617 sometimes double-escaped in a feed (if set via meta title), and sometimes
618 not (if set from the page filename).
619 * In the meta plugin, when a title is set, encode the html entities in it
620 numerically. This works better in the current landscape of a rss spec that
621 doesn't specify encoding, and variously broken feed consumers, according
622 to <http://www.rssboard.org/rss-profile#data-types-characterdata>.

1500 * Change how the stylesheet url is determined in the templates: Remove
1501 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
1502 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
1503 from the template, as well as stylesheets.
1504 * Fix a bug introduced last version to do with nested inlines.
1505 * Allow preprocessor directives to span multiple lines, both to make
1506 long ones with lots of values easier to write, and to allow for ones with
1507 multi-line quoted values.
1508 * Allow preprocessor directives to contain python-like triple-quoted
1509 text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
1510 * Add a template plugin.
1511 * Make pagespec merge code smarter about merging duplicate pagespecs.
1512 * Patch from Jordà Polo to make Setup::Standard support hashes in config
1514 * Change order of linkify and preprocess; first preprocess and then linkify.
1515 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
1516 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
1517 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
1518 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
1519 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
1520 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
1521 * Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
1522 * Make all pages pull in a local.css style sheet, if present. This won't
1523 be included in ikiwiki, but can be created to make local styling changes
1524 w/o needing to merge in every new change to the distributed style.css.
1525 * Use DESTDIR and not PREFIX to specify installation prefix for packaging.
1526 * Support running "perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=foo" to build ikiwiki to run
1527 from a different directory.
1528 * Generalised preprocesser loop protection code.
1529 * Patch from James Westby to allow a description to be set for rss feeds.
1530 * Patch from James Westby to add a template for the search form.
1531 * Added a ddate plugin.
1532 * Patch from James Westby to add a --sslcookie switch, which forces
1533 cookies to only be sent over ssl connections to avoid interception.
1534 * Fix preferences page on anonok wikis; still need to sign in to get
1535 to the preferences page.
1536 * Add toc (table of contents) plugin.
1537 * Change htmlize, format, and sanitize hooks to use named parameters.
1538 * Patch from James Westby to add an actions option to inline; this
1539 adds Edit and Discussion links at the end of blog entries.
1540 * Due to some css changes, you'll want to rebuild your wiki on upgrade
1541 to this version. Will be handled automatically by the deb.
1542 * Add processed date to aggregate preprocessor directive status output.

1548 * Add a tail fin^W^Wsidebar plugin by Tuomo Valkonen.
1549 * If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
1550 class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
1551 defined for that though.
1552 * Call filter hooks on inlined page content.
1553 * Support inlining pages raw, rather than creating a blog.
1554 * Clean up yes/no parameter parsing in inline plugin.
1555 * Implemented better cycle detection in the inline plugin; nested inlines
1557 * Add a map plugin contributed by Alessandro Dotti Contra.
1558 * Add otl format plugin, which handles files as created by vimoutliner.
1559 * Fix ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to work in the way the postinst uses it.
1560 * Add first draft at a Restructured Text (rst) plugin, by Sergio
1561 Talens-Oliag. Note that this has many known issues -- see the caveats on

1570 * Relicense the templates and basewiki under the 2-clause BSD license.
1571 Since these can easily become part of other people's websites, they
1572 should be under as permissive a license as possible.
1573 * Add --syslog config option, to log to the syslog.
1574 * Catch failing IPC::Open2 in tidy plugin and retry in case this is a
1575 transient failure to fork (which I've seen happen in the wild).

1589 ikiwiki (1.18) unstable; urgency=low
1591 * The last release accidentially installed ikiwiki as ikiwiki.pl, now fixed.
1593 * Man page format fixups.
1594 * If the meta plugin overides the page title, set a title_overridden
1595 variable in the template to true. This allows doing things with the
1596 templates conditional on the title being overriden.
1597 * Add a %pagecase which maps lower-case page names to the actual case
1598 used in the filename. Use this in bestlinks calculation instead of
1599 forcing the link to lowercase.
1600 * Also use %pagecase in various other places that want to check if a page
1601 with a given name exists.
1602 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
1603 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
1604 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.

1612 * Move tidy back to sanitize hook, found out how to only show body.
1613 * Turn off tidy indentation too.
1614 * Turn on HTML::Template loop_context_vars; not actually used in stock
1615 templates but can be useful for things like making comma-delimited lists
1616 of tags or what have you.
1617 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
1618 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on
1619 case-sensative filesystems like OSX.
1620 * Improve markdown loading. First, try to load it as a proper perl module,
1621 in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying
1623 * Document in install page how to install markdown, since it has no
1624 installation procedure in the upstream tarball.

1626 them without annoyances.
1627 * Suck in the page content when generating an inline archive page, to work
1628 around the meta plugin's lack of caching of title metadata across runs.

1632 ikiwiki (1.16) unstable; urgency=low
1634 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
1635 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
1636 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
1637 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
1638 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
1639 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
1641 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
1642 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
1643 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
1644 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
1645 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
1647 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
1648 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
1649 matter what the input.
1650 * Disable tidy warnings too.
1651 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
1652 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks

1685 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
1686 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.

1688 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.

1698 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
1699 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
1701 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
1702 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
1703 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
1704 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
1705 to perl code that does the matching.
1706 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
1707 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
1708 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

1730 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
1731 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
1732 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,

1763 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
1764 different than the source page for inlined pages.

1788 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the

1810 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
1811 for a page not being an orphan.
1812 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
1813 about changes to rss feeds.
1814 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
1815 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1816 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
1817 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
1818 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
1819 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
1820 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.

1822 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
1823 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
1825 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
1826 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
1827 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
1828 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
1829 getting in the way of the preview.

1832 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1833 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
1834 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
1835 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
1837 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
1838 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
1839 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
1840 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
1841 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
1842 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
1843 sanitise them, like any other page type.
1844 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
1845 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
1846 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
1847 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
1848 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
1849 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
1850 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
1851 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
1852 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
1853 No code changes involved.
1854 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
1855 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

1872 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
1873 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
1874 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
1875 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
1877 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
1878 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
1879 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
1880 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
1881 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
1882 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
1884 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
1885 given the readfile fix.
1886 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
1887 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
1889 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
1890 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
1891 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
1892 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
1893 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
1895 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

1907 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
1908 for some handy stuff like:
1909 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
1910 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
1911 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
1912 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
1913 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
1914 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
1915 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
1916 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
1917 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
1919 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
1920 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
1921 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
1922 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
1923 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
1924 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.

1960 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
1961 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
1962 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
1963 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
1964 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
1965 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
1967 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
1968 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
1969 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
1971 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
1972 relative to the inlining page.)
1973 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.
1974 * Add -refresh option to ikiwiki-mass-rebuild and use that on upgrades that
1975 do not need a full rebuild, in order to update any basewiki pages.

1981 * Fix the preinst introduced in the last version. Closes: #367458

1987 * Remove dups from the brokenlinks list.
1988 * Add libc6-dev to dependencies, needed to build wrappers.
1989 * Install wikilist in correct location. Closes: #367371

1993 ikiwiki (1.1) unstable; urgency=low
1995 * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
1996 dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
1997 on upgrade to this version.
1998 * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
1999 top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
2000 the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
2001 * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
2002 plugins) during a page render.
2003 * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
2004 single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
2006 * Added a plugin system.
2007 * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
2008 * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
2009 * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
2010 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
2011 * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
2013 * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
2014 * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
2015 * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
2016 different location) already exists.
2017 * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
2018 * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
2019 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2020 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
2021 * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist_match,
2022 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2023 * Smart globlist merging.
2024 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
2025 to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
2026 setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
2027 rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
2028 * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
2029 * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
2030 as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
2031 * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
2032 * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
2034 * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
2035 * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
2036 * Allow links of the form [[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
2038 * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
2039 and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
2040 * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
2041 * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
2042 * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
2043 by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
