34 * Avoid multiple ikiwiki cgi processes piling up, eating all memory,
35 and thrashing, by making the cgi wrapper wait on a cgilock.
36 If you had to set apache's MaxClients low to avoid ikiwiki thrashing your
37 server, you can now turn it up to a high value.
38 * Stop busy-waiting in lockwiki, as this could delay ikiwiki from waking up
39 for up to one second. The bailout code is no longer needed after above
41 * Remove support for unused optional wait parameter from lockwiki.
42 * aggregate: Try to query XML::Feed for the base url when derelevatising
43 links. Since this needs the just released XML::Feed 0.3, as well
44 as a not yet released XML::RSS, it will fall back to the old method
45 if no xml:base info is available.
46 * meta: Plugin is now enabled by default since the basewiki uses it.
47 * txt: Do not encode quotes when filtering the txt, as that broke
48 later parsing of any directives on the page.
49 * Fix the link() pagespec to match links that are internally recorded as
51 * Add rel=nofollow to recentchanges_links for the same (weak) reasons it
52 was earlier added to edit links.
53 * tag: Normalize tagbase so leading/trailing slashes in it don't break
55 * bzr: Fix dates for recentchanges.

61 * Add support for checking pushes from untrusted git committers. This can be
62 used to set up anonymous git pushes, and other similar things.
63 * format: New plugin, allows embedding differently formatted text inside a
64 page (ie, otl inside a mdwn page, or syntax highlighted code inside a
66 * relativedate: New javascript-alicious plugin that makes all dates display
67 relative, in a very nice way, if I say so myself.
68 * Optimise the no-op post-commit hook, to speed up web edits by a fraction
70 * git: Allow [[sha1_commit]] to be used in the diffurl, to support cgit.
71 * shortcut: Fix display of shortcuts while previewing.
72 * Plugins that used to override displaytime should instead override
73 formattime. displaytime will call that, and may wrap markup around the
75 * Add an underlay for javascript, and add ikiwiki.js containing some utility
77 * toggle: Stop embedding the full toggle code on each page using it, and
78 move it to toggle.js in the javascript underlay.
79 * recentchanges: Make feed links point back to anchors on the recentchanges
81 * Fix issue with utf-8 in wikiname breaking session cookies, by
82 entity-encoding the wikiname in the session cookie.
83 * Use the pure perl Data::Dumper when generating setup files to ensure that
84 utf-8 characters are written out as such, and not as the encoded perl
85 strings the C Data::Dumper produces.
86 * inline: Only the last feed link was put on the page, fix this to include
87 all feed links. So rss will be included along with atom, and pages with
88 multiple feeds will get links added for all feeds.
89 * tag: When tagbase is set, force the links created by tagging to point at
90 the toplevel tagbase, and not closer subpages. The html links already went
91 there, but internally the links were not recorded as absolute, which could
92 cause confusing backlinks etc.
93 * Add an inject function, that can be used by plugins that want to
94 replace one of ikiwiki's functions with their own version.
95 (This is a scary thing that grubs through the symbol table, and replaces
96 all exported occurances of a function with the injected version.)
97 * external: RPC functions can be injected to replace exported functions.
98 * Updated French translation. Closes: #502694
99 * Updated Spanish translation from the ever vigilant Victor Moral.

109 * Updated Spanish translation from Victor Moral.
110 * lockedit: Support specifying which users (and IP addresses) a page
111 is locked for. This supports most of the ACL type things users have been
112 wanting to be done. Closes: #443346 (It does not control who can read a
113 page, but that's out of scope for ikiwiki.)
114 * orphans: Fix unquoted page name in regexp.
115 * google: Plugin provides google site search, contributed by Peter Simons.
116 * Pass HTTPS variable through the wrapper so that CGI->https can be used
117 by plugins. Closes: #502047
118 * inline: Allow MTIME to be used in inlinepage.tmpl.
119 * inline: Use the feed's description in the rss and atom links.

135 inside tagbase, when it's set.
136 * template: Make edit link for new templates ensure the page is located
137 under toplevel templates directory.
138 * htmlscrubber: Add a config setting that can be used to disable the
139 scrubber acting on a set of pages.

141 * Beautify urls used in various places. (smcv)
142 * Export pagetitle, titlepage, linkpage.
143 * htmltidy: Avoid returning undef if tidy fails. Also avoid returning the
144 untidied content if tidy crashes. In either case, it seems best to tidy
145 the content to nothing.
146 * htmltidy: Avoid spewing tidy errors to stderr.
147 * Reorganize index file, add a format version field. Upgrades to the new
148 index format should be transparent.
149 * Add %wikistate, which is like %pagestate except not specific to a given
150 page, and is preserved across rebuilds.
151 * editpage: Be more aggressive (and less buggy) about cleaning up
152 temporary files rendered during page preview.
153 * Add an indexpages option, which causes foo/index.mdwn to be the source
154 for page foo when foo.mdwn doesn't exist. Also, when it's enabled,
155 creating a new page will save it to foo/index.mdwn by default.

201 * progress: New plugin to generate progress bars (willu)
202 * Add allow_symlinks_before_srcdir to config so websetup doesn't eat it.
203 * img: Support sizes like 200x. Closes: #475149
204 * goodstuff: Remove otl plugin from the bundle since it needs a significant
205 external dependency and is not commonly used. If you use otl, make sure
206 you explicitly enable it now.
207 * goodstuff: Add more, progress, and table plugins to the bundle.
208 * Improve error message if external plugin fails to load. Closes: #498458
209 * Directive documentation broken out of the plugin documentation and into
210 pages suitable to be used as an underlay. Thanks to Willu for doing most
212 * Move the directive documentation into its own underlay, separate from
213 basewiki, since it's sorta large compared to the rest of basewiki.
214 * listdirectives: Enable use of the directives underlay.
215 * Removed the obsolete blog page from the basewiki. ikiwiki/blog still
216 remains, but is now deprecated too.

218 markdown, openid, pagespec, preprocessordirective, subpage, wikilink).

393 the former, while slower, has a much better html parser that avoids
395 * Move yesno function out of inline and into IkiWiki core, not exported.
396 * Error handling improvement for preprocess hooks. It's now safe to call
397 error() from such hooks; it will cause a nicely formatted error message
398 to be inserted into the page.

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

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

765 which forced a scan of the page to make available metadata that
766 appeared after the inline directive. Problem is that scan made it forget
767 about any other files rendered due to the page. The scan also turns out
768 to be unnecessary now, since meta persistently stores state and it's
769 always available. So it was just removed.

1010 * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
1011 pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
1012 * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
1013 and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
1014 running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
1015 wiki rebuild each midnight.
1016 * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
1017 enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
1018 * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
1019 * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
1020 provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
1021 * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
1022 so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
1023 I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
1024 (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
1025 * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
1026 * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
1028 * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
1029 * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
1030 * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
1031 inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
1032 acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
1033 element in the html template. Closes: #454058
1034 * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
1035 * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
1036 * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
1037 * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
1038 creating a new page that's entirely empty.
1039 * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
1040 links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
1041 storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
1042 duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
1043 * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
1044 openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
1045 that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
1046 the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
1048 * meta: Improved data storage.
1049 * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
1050 stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
1051 liw's disappearing openids).
1052 * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
1053 * map: Don't inline images.
1054 * brokenlinks: Don't list the same link multiple times. (%links might
1055 contain multiple copies of the same link)
1056 * git: Correct display of multiline commit messages in recentchanges.
1057 * Re-organise dependencies and recommends now that recommends are installed
1059 * Don't refuse to render files with ".." in their name. (Anchor the regexp.)
1060 * Work around perl taint checking bug #411786, where perl sometimes randomly
1061 sets the taint flag on untainted variables, by disabling taint checking
1062 in the deb. This sucks.

1087 to the top of the srcdir. In certian unusual configurations, an attacker
1088 who could commit to one of the parent directories of the srcdir could
1089 use a symlink attack to cause ikiwiki to publish files elsewhere in the

1125 ikiwiki (2.12) unstable; urgency=low
1128 * Fix some issues with toggles in preview mode.
1129 * Fix an aggregate plugin expiry bug. Over time, it's possible for the same
1130 page name to be expired and reused for several distinct guids. When this
1131 happened, the expiry code counted each past guid that had used that page
1132 name as a currently existing page, and thus expired too many pages.
1133 * Avoid a race in the git rcs_commit function, by not assuming HEAD will
1134 stay the same for the duration of the function.
1135 * Avoid using commands like git-diff and instead use "git diff".
1136 In some configurations, only the main git command is in the path.
1137 * Improve the RecentChanges display for git merges, by passing -c instead
1138 of -m to git-log, and by skipping display of commits that change no
1140 * Don't truncate git commit messages to the first line in RecentChanges,
1141 show the full message.
1142 * map: Recent changes caused unnecessary ul's to be inserted for items
1143 that were all at the same level, fix. Closes: #449285

1152 It needs to be setgid if the master repo is a shared repository, so
1153 that pushes into the working copy repository happen as the same group,
1154 avoiding permissions problems.
1155 * The first git commit legitimately has no parents. Avoid recentchanges
1156 spewing uninitialised value warnings and debug messages about it.
1157 Dummying up a parent of 0000000 allows gitweb to work too.

1165 Useful for laptop clones of remote wikis.
1166 * Add a calendar plugin, contributed by Manoj Srivastava.
1167 * Reformat calendar plugin to ikiwiki conventions.
1168 * The calendar plugin made *every* page depend on every other page,
1169 which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
1170 calculations (I hope.)
1171 * Removed manual ctime statting code, and just have the calendar plugin use
1173 * Ikiwiki has moved into a git repository.

1189 * Tidy ctime debug output for git.
1190 * French translation update. Closes: #445923
1191 * Fix --get-ctime with git, needed to remove srcdir from filename.
1192 * In the cgi edit path, reload the index file before rendering. A bug
1193 showed up where a web edit that added a page caused a near-concurrent
1194 web edit to fail in will_render. While it would be hard to reproduce this,
1195 my analysis is that the failing cgi started first, loaded the index file
1196 (prior to locking) then the other cgi created the new page and rendered
1197 it, and then the failing cgi choked on the new file when _it_ tried to
1198 render it. Ensuring that the index file is loaded after taking the lock
1199 will avoid this bug.
1200 * Fix strange stderr-hiding code in the git module, allow error messages
1201 to be passed on to stderr. Also fixes a potential bug, since git error
1202 meesages were treated as if they came from git stdout.
1203 * Add a "createlink" class attribute to the span for wikilinks pointing
1204 to not-yet-existing pages. I don't have a useful style defined for that
1206 * Rewritten rst plugin by madduck is a python program that communicates with
1207 ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that
1208 had to fork python for every rst page render. Note that if you use
1209 the rst plugin, you now need to have the RPC::XML perl module installed.

1222 didn't point to the correct page.
1223 * map: Render pages on the way to subpages whose parent pages
1224 are not included in the map. Include special styling for such pages.
1225 * map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
1226 * Add class option to htmllink().
1227 * img: Allow link=somepage to cause the image to link to a given page.
1228 Slight overriding of link, as link=no is still used to disable the linking
1229 entirely. Unless you have a page named "no"..
1230 * Save index after previewing page edit, since even previewing can create
1231 files in some situations, and this is appropriate in some cases, such as
1232 the teximg plugin's error log file.
1233 Such files will be automatically cleaned up at an appopriate later time.
1234 * Don't allow whitespace in link text in a wikilink. This was still
1235 allowed by the regexp in one case though not documented to work, and
1236 was ambiguous with preprocessor directives.
1237 * camelcase: Tighten regexp to avoid false positives. WikiWords are only
1238 linkified now if they are preceeded by whitespace.

1273 in the wikilink looked like a table field separator. Avoid this ambiguity
1274 by linkifying the data before parsing it as a table.
1275 * Turn on allow_loose_quotes in the table plugin's Text::CSV object,

1449 scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
1450 them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image
1451 the same way, this prevents complications in dealing with two pages

1634 usedirs you'll have to deal with that on upgrade to this version.
1635 * Add feedshow parameter to inline, which can be useful for eg, removing
1636 old posts from feeds when permalinks change.

1647 real post-commit hook that sshs back to the web server, and runs ikiwiki
1648 in post-commit mode to update the wiki.
1649 * Fix urls generated by mirrorlist plugin.

1651 available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.

1659 on and supported creating it (especially Tuomov). This adds a "usedirs"

1810 commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
1811 the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
1812 commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook

2084 lib installation directory is in @INC. If it's not, munge ikiwiki

2130 instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
2132 * Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
2133 during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
2134 plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
2136 * Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
2137 precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
2138 previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
2139 (thousands) of pages.

2246 - Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
2247 used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
2248 - Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
2249 use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
2250 like a proper perl module should.
2251 - Use the other functions at your own risk.

2255 referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.

2344 STYLEURL and add BASEURL to all templates (some already had it). This
2345 new more general variable can be used to link to other things (eg, images)
2346 from the template, as well as stylesheets.

2358 This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
2359 directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
2360 parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
2361 to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
2362 that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
2363 this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.

2445 * This means that links to pages with mixed case names will now work,
2446 even if the link is in some other case mixture, and mixed case pages
2447 should be fully supported throughout ikiwiki.

2459 of tags or what have you.
2460 * Remove <br> from end of aggregate preprocessor directive output.
2461 * Ship ikiwiki executable as ikiwiki.pl in source to avoid issues on

2477 * Try to handle relative links in aggregated feeds. However,
2478 the current support is a crude hack due to limitations of XML::Feed:
2479 xml:base is not supported, neither is Content-Location. And of course,
2480 relative links in RSS feeds are ill-undefined..
2481 * Make aggregator save permalinks and author name to pages as metadata.
2482 * Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
2484 * Various CSS and formatting changes.
2485 * Encode link and guid urls in rss feeds to avoid illegal utf8 slipping in.
2486 * Add xhtml files to the default prune regexp.
2487 * Also generate rel=bookmark links for permalinks.
2488 * Fix the htmltidy plugin, which wasn't working due my breaking it when
2490 * Don't run tidy with -xml as that fails if the input is not well-formed.
2491 Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
2492 matter what the input.
2493 * Disable tidy warnings too.
2494 * Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
2495 operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks

2528 * Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
2529 to update pages that haven't changed on disk.

2531 quotes and such can be represented in title tags.

2540 * Fix issue with unicode filenames and updating the hyper estradier search
2541 index. (Aka Please Please Please, let that be the last one.)
2542 * Patch from Roland Mas to support an rss=no parameter to inline directives.
2544 * Renamed GlobLists to PageSpecs.
2545 * PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
2546 backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
2547 treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
2548 to perl code that does the matching.
2549 * The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
2550 using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
2551 removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.

2565 the wikiformat plugin works. Thanks, Emanuele Aina.
2566 * Patch from Alessandro Dotti Contra to clean up backlinks and navbar

2568 other gunk from the display, much nicer. You may want to rebuild your wiki
2569 when upgrading to get the cleanup globally.

2571 * htmltidy plugin from Faidon.
2572 * Locale patch from Faidon:
2573 - Adds a locale setting to setup files.
2574 - Proper local time, if the locale configuration option is used.
2575 - Support for UTF-8 (or ISO-8859-X) filenames in SVN. Before this patch,
2576 commiting (or even rcs_updating) on repositories with UTF-8 filenames was

2603 on the template before setting them, for robustness.
2604 * Switch pagetemplate hooks to using named parameters.
2605 * Pass a destpage parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
2606 This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
2607 different than the source page for inlined pages.
2608 * Audited all plugins to endure they pass (page, destpage) to htmllink

2631 * Add wikitext markup plugin, which supports ".wiki" pages written in the
2632 original wiki syntax, CamelCase links and all.
2633 * Support a w3mmode, which lets w3m run ikiwiki using its local CGI
2634 support, to edit pages etc without a web server.
2635 * Display CGI processing errors if present.
2636 * Fix from Faidon for a XML parser issue that breaks utf-8 for

2653 * Fix orphans plugin to not count a link to a nonexistant page as a reason
2654 for a page not being an orphan.
2655 * Support pinging services such as Technorati using XML-RPC to notify them
2656 about changes to rss feeds.
2657 * Parse svn log as xml for improved utf8 and security. Note that this makes
2658 ikiwiki depend on XML::Simple. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2659 * POSIX::strftime doesn't know about encodings and doesn't return a utf8
2660 flagged string even if the locale causes it to generate utf8 output,
2661 so make sure to let perl know it should be handled as utf8. Also,
2662 the optimised version used for standard time formats won't work if the
2663 user has changed locale, so drop it. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2664 * Fix re-encoding of the comments field to utf8 if a commit fails
2665 due to a conflict. Thanks, Faidon Liambotis.
2666 * Let svn know that commits have utf8 commit messages. Thanks, Faidon
2668 * Add insane double encode/decode to utf8 around call to markdown.
2669 This works around a truely strange bug, which is apparently a bug in
2670 perl, #376329. Also added a test case for it.
2671 * Improve layout of edit page so formatting help link is always visible w/o
2672 getting in the way of the preview.
2673 * Centralised all calls to HTML::Template and force all the templates
2675 * Support pages with utf8 filenames. Patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2676 * Introduce add_plugins and disable_plugins config options in setup files.
2677 This allows adding or removing plugins w/o overriding the whole list of
2678 default plugins, which makes it easier to upgrade when new default plugins
2680 * Support htmlize plugins and make mdwn one such plugin, which is enabled by
2681 default (of course!). Based on a patch by Faidon Liambotis.
2682 * Add a html plugin, which can be used to write wikis in raw html,
2683 if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
2684 defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
2685 be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process and html
2686 sanitise them, like any other page type.
2687 * Rebuilding wrappers is necessary on upgrade to this version.
2688 * Make ikiwiki --setup --refresh rebuild wrappers, so wrapper rebuild
2689 will be automatically done on all upgrades.
2690 * Don't send pings if the wiki is being rebuilt.
2691 * Work around very innefficient behavior in File::Spec::abs2rel. Result
2692 is a savings of 2 pointless fork/execs per link calculation, which
2693 results in ~25% speedup of ikiwiki building its own doc wiki, and
2694 about 35% speedup displaying RecentChanges!
2695 * Make RecentChanges use a table and some CSS, should be much more readable.
2696 No code changes involved.
2697 * Encode & in diffurl in examples, to conform to pedantic rules.
2698 * Speed up RecentChanges by another 40% or so with some memoization.

2715 * YA utf-8 patch from Recai, this time to fix previewing a page so that
2716 the text in the input box is re-encoded back to utf-8.
2717 * -CSD does not affect modules, so readfile() was not using the utf-8 input
2718 layer, which led to lots of problems; make it force read files as utf-8.
2720 * Note that as a consequence, this version of ikiwiki will actually try to
2721 parse utf8 in source files for the first time, which may expose broken
2722 utf8 in wiki sources that was hidden before. Most common will be
2723 perl warnings like "utf8 "\xE9" does not map to Unicode"
2724 * writefile() likewise needs to use the utf8 output layer.
2725 * Remove the -CSD from ikiwiki's hashbang since it's useless to have it
2727 * Revert some of the decode_utf8 changes in CGI.pm that seem unnecessary
2728 given the readfile fix.
2729 * Add utf-8 testcases for readfile and htmlize.
2730 * Put back the encode_utf8 in the input to markdown; it's really not utf-8
2732 * More utf-8 fixes from Recai, partly to things I broke above:
2733 - The serious problem is that writefile() saves the content in undecoded
2734 format in CGI, hence all (non-ascii) chars are corrupted permanently.
2735 - Comment field in edit page is not decoded and all the non-ascii chars in
2736 this field are corrupted as the result. We should decode it as we do it
2738 - Add 'use encoding "utf8"' to CGI.pm to avoid warnings about wide

2748 timezone, not as GMT.
2749 * More security review.
2750 * Patch from Dr. Zini to add link() and backlink() to globlists. This allows
2751 for some handy stuff like:
2752 - Using links as a kind of tag; creating blog pages that list all pages
2753 containing a given tag/link or not containing some other tag.
2754 - Subscribing to mail notifications whenever a change is made to a page
2755 that is a backlink of page foo. Ie, "Please notify me of changes in all
2756 pages that link to my home page in the wiki"
2757 - Locking any pages that are linked to from a particular page, so that
2758 lists of locks can be exposed in the wiki.
2759 * Reorganised the doc wiki's todo/* pages, using a link/tag to flag
2760 when a todo item is done, instead of the previous moving it to a different
2762 * Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
2763 * Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
2764 like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
2765 tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
2766 can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
2767 * Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
2768 * Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
2769 * Add support for using git instead of subversion as the RCS backend,
2770 tremendous thanks to Recai Oktaş for this.
2771 * Doc updates for git.
2772 * Fix absolute url munging in rss generation to support https, ftp, etc urls
2774 * Patch from Recai Oktaş to improve utf-8 support, it should now use proper
2775 utf-8 for edit and other fields, and for recentchanges. There may still

2783 very strange way of enabling proper XHTML <br /> type tags. Output html
2784 should be always valid again now.

2786 <span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
2787 * Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
2788 * Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
2789 around with adding new stuff to the page template.

2791 header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
2793 * Rebuilding on upgrade to this version is recommended.
2794 * Add a html validity check to the test suite, using the wdg-html-validator,
2796 * Make the html valid when there is nothing in the actions list.
2797 * Reordered some function call parameters for consistency.
2798 * Enable full utf-8 support for page input and output.
2799 * Add a workaround for markdown, which does not work well with utf-8
2801 * --getctime had bitrotted (well I only ever used it the once so far..),
2802 fix and make it a bit more flexible
2803 * rcs_getctime is changed, now rather than needing to loop over all pages,
2804 it should just use the rcs to get the ctime of the passed file.
2805 * When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
2806 expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
2807 standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
2808 inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
2810 For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
2811 if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
2812 "blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
2814 (This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
2815 relative to the inlining page.)
2816 * Make page edit textarea resize to fit browser window.

2853 backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.

2862 * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
2863 it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.

2865 dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
2866 * Smart globlist merging.
2867 * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
