  6
  7== Version 0.9.0
  8
  9* *Incompatible* *change*: Rake DSL commands ('task', 'file', etc.)  are
 10  no longer private methods in Object.  If you need to call 'task :xzy' inside
 11  your class, include Rake::DSL into the class.  The DSL is still available at

 13
 14* Rake now warns when the deprecated :needs syntax used.
 15

111  gem package task.
112
113== Version 0.8.3
114
115* Enhanced the system directory detection in windows. We now check
116  HOMEDRIVE/HOMEPATH and USERPROFILE if APPDATA isn't found. (Patch
117  supplied by James Tucker). Rake no long aborts if it can't find the
118  directory.
119
120* Added fix to handle ruby installations in directories with spaces in
121  their name.
122
123== Version 0.8.2
124
125* Fixed bug in package task so that it will include the subdir
126  directory in the package for testing. (Bug found by Adam Majer)
127
128* Added ENV var to rakefile to prevent OS X from including extended
129  attribute junk in a tar file. (Bug found by Adam Majer)
130
131* Fixed filename dependency order bug in test_inspect_pending and
132  test_to_s_pending. (Bug found by Adam Majer)
133
134* Fixed check for file utils options to make them immune to the

139
140* Switched from getoptlong to optparse (patches supplied by Edwin
141  Pratomo)
142
143* The -T option will now attempt to dynamically sense the size of the

150  task.
151
152* Added the ability to reenable a task to be invoked a second time.
153
154* Changed RDoc test task to have no default template. This makes it
155  easier for the tempate to pick up the template from the environment.
156
157* Changed from using Mutex to Monitor. Evidently Mutex causes thread
158  join errors when Ruby is compiled with -disable-pthreads. (Patch
159  supplied by Ittay Dror)
160
161* Fixed bug in makefile parser that had problems with extra spaces in
162  file task names. (Patch supplied by Ittay Dror)
163
164* Added a performance patch for reading large makefile dependency
165  files. (Patch supplied by Ittay Dror)
166
167* Default values for task arguments can easily be specified with the
168  :with_defaults method. (Idea for default argument merging supplied
169  by (Adam Q. Salter)
170
171* The -T output will only self-truncate if the output is a tty.
172  However, if RAKE_COLUMNS is explicitly set, it will be honored in
173  any case. (Patch provided by Gavin Stark).
174
175* Numerous fixes for running under windows. A big thanks to Bheeshmar
176  Redheendran for spending a good part of the afternoon at the
177  Lonestar Ruby Conference to help me work out these issues.
178
179== Version 0.8.1

187* Made task parameters passable to prerequisites.
188* Comments are limited to 80 columns or so (suggested by Jamis Buck).
189* Added -D to display full comments (suggested by Jamis Buck).
190* The rake program will set the status value used in any explicit
191  exit(n) calls. (patch provided by Stephen Touset)
192* Fixed error in functional tests that were not including session (and
193  silently skipping the functionl tests.
194* Removed --usage and make -h the same as -H.
195* Make a prettier inspect for tasks.
196
197== Version 0.7.3
198

202* Added init and top_level for custom rake applications.
203
204== Version 0.7.2
205
206* Error messages are now send to stderr rather than stdout (from
207  Payton Quackenbush).
208* Better error handling on invalid command line arguments (from Payton
209  Quackenbush).
210* Added rcov task and updated unit testing for better code coverage.
211* Fixed some bugs where the application object was going to the global
212  appliation instead of using its own data.
213* Added square and curly bracket patterns to FileList#include (Tilman
214  Sauerbeck).
215* Added plain filename support to rule dependents (suggested by Nobu
216  Nakada).
217* Added pathmap support to rule dependents.
218* Added a 'tasks' method to a namespace to get a list of tasks
219  associated with the namespace.
220* Fixed the method name leak from FileUtils (bug found by Glenn
221  Vanderburg).

223* Added test for noop, bad_option and verbose flags to sh command.
224* Removed dependency on internal fu_xxx functions from FileUtils.
225* Added a 'shame' task to the Rakefile.
226* Added tar_command and zip_command options to the Package task.

233* Added block based exclusion.
234* The clean task will no longer delete 'core' if it is a directory.
235* Removed rake_dup.  Now we just simply rescue a bad dup.
236* Refactored the FileList reject logic to remove duplication.

240
241* Added optional filter parameter to the --tasks command line option.
242* Added flatten to allow rule transform procs to return lists of
243  prereqs (Joel VanderWerf provided patch).
244* Added pathmap to String and FileList.
245* The -r option will now load .rake files (but a straight require
246  doesn't yet).  NOTE: This is experimental ... it may be
247  discontinued.
248* The -f option without a value will disable the search for a
249  Rakefile.  The assumption is that the -r files are adequate.
250* Fixed the safe_ln function to fall back to cp in more error
251  scenarios.
252
253== Version 0.7.0
254

258* Added --trace reminder on short exception messages (David Heinemeier
259  Hansson suggestion).
260* Added multitask declaration that executes prerequisites in
261  parallel. (Doug Young providied an initial implementation).
262* Fixed missing_const hack to be compatible with Rails. (Jamis Buck
263  supplied test case).
264* Made the RDoc task default to internal (in-process) RDoc formatting.
265  The old behavior is still available by setting the +external+ flag
266  to true.
267* Rakefiles are now loaded with the expanded path to prevent
268  accidental polution from the Ruby load path.
269* The +namespace+ command now returns a NameSpace object that can be
270  used to lookup tasks defined in that namespace.  This allows for
271  better anonymous namespace behavior.
272* Task objects my now be used in prerequisite lists directly.
273
274== Version 0.6.1
275
276* Rebuilt 0.6.0 gem without signing.
277
278== Version 0.6.0
279
280* Fixed file creation bug in the unit tests (caused infinite loop on
281  windows).
282* Fixed bug where session based functional tests were run under
283  windows.
284* Fixed bug in directory tasks so that updating a directory will not
285  retrigger file tasks depending on the directory (see
286  FileCreationTask and EarlyTime).
287* Added egrep to FileList
288* ruby command now runs same ruby version as rake.
289* Added investigation to task object. (suggested by Martin Fowler)
290* Added ruby_opts to the test task to allow arbitrary ruby options to
291  be passed to the test script. (Greg Fast)
292* Fixed the test loader to ignore options. (Greg Fast)
293* Moved Task, FileTask, FileCreationTask and RakeApp into the Rake
294  module namespace.  Old style namespace behavior can be invoked via
295  the --classic-namespace option. (requested by Kelly Felkins).
296* GemTask is now sensitive to the gem platform (Masao Mutoh).
297* A non-existing file prerequisite will no longer cause an exception
298  (Philipp Neubeck).

302== Version 0.5.4
303
304* Added double quotes to the test runner.
305* Added .svn to default ignore list.
306* Updated FileList#include to support nested arrays and filelists.
307
308== Version 0.5.3
309
310* Added support for importing Rakefile and other dependencies.
311* Fixed bug so that now rules can chain off of existing tasks as well
312  as existing files.
313* Fixed verbose flag bug in the testing task.  Shortened some failure
314  messages.
315* Make FileUtils methods private at the top level module to avoid
316  accidental method leaking into other objects.
317* Added test loader option to test task.  "testrb" is no longer the
318  default test loader.  It is now eating syntax errors that should
319  halt the unit tests.
320* Revamped FileList so that it works more like and array (addressed
321  flatten bug).  Added many tests around file list.
322* Added +ext+ method to both String and FileList.
323
324== Version 0.5.0
325
326* Fixed documentation that was lacking the Rake module name (Tilman
327  Sauerbeck).
328* Added tar.gz and tar.bz2 support to package task (Tilman Sauerbeck).
329* Recursive rules are now supported (Tilman Sauerbeck).
330* Added warning option for the Test Task (requested by Eric Hodel).
331* The jamis rdoc template is only used if it exists.
332* Added fix for Ruby 1.8.2 test/unit and rails problem.
333* Added contributed rake man file (Jani Monoses).
334* Added Brian Candler's fix for problems in --trace and --dry-run
335  mode.
336
337== Version 0.4.15
338
339* Fixed a bug that prevented the TESTOPTS flag from working with the
340  revised for 1.8.2 test task.
341* Updated the docs on --trace to indicate that it also enables a full
342  backtrace on errors.
343
344== Version 0.4.14
345
346* Modified the TestTask to workaround the Ruby 1.8.2 change in
347  autoexecuting unit tests.
348
349== Version 0.4.13
350
351* Fixed the dry-run flag so it is operating again.
352* Multiple arguments to sh and ruby commands will not be interpreted
353  by the shell (patch provided by Jonathan Paisley).
354
355== Version 0.4.12
356
357* Added --silent (-s) to suppress the (in directory) rake message.
358

360
361* Changed the "don't know how to rake" message (finally)
362* Changes references to a literal "Rakefile" to reference the global
363  variable $rakefile (which contains the actual name of the rakefile).
364
365== Version 0.4.10
366
367* Added block support to the "sh" command, allowing users to take
368  special actions on the result of the system call.  E.g.
369
370    sh "shell_command" do |ok, res|
371      puts "Program returned #{res.exitstatus}" if ! ok
372    end
373
374== Version 0.4.9
375
376* Switched to Jamis Buck's RDoc template.
377* Removed autorequire from Rake's gem spec.  This prevents the Rake
378  libraries from loading while using rails.
379
380== Version 0.4.8
381
382* Added support for .rb versions of Rakefile.
383* Removed \\\n's from test task.
384* Fixed Ruby 1.9 compatibility issue with FileList.
385
386== Version 0.4.7
387
388* Fixed problem in FileList that caused Ruby 1.9 to go into infinite
389  recursion.  Since to_a was removed from Object, it does not need to
390  added back into the list of methods to rewrite in FileList.  (Thanks
391  to Kent Sibilev for pointing this out).
392
393== Version 0.4.6

403* Fixed initialization problem with @comment.
404* Now using multi -r technique in TestTask.  Switch Rakefile back to
405  using the built-in test task macros because the rake runtime is no
406  longer needed.
407* Added 'TEST=filename' and 'TESTOPTS=options' to the Test Task
408  macros.
409* Allow a +test_files+ attribute in test tasks.  This allows more
410  flexibility in specifying test files.
411
412== Version 0.4.3
413* Fixed Comment leakage.
414
415== Version 0.4.2

425  until the first call that needs the file names.
426* VAR=VALUE options are now accepted on the command line and are
427  treated like environment variables.  The values may be tested in a
428  Rakefile by referencing ENV['VAR'].
429* File.mtime is now used (instead of File.new().mtime).
430
431== Version 0.3.2.x
432
433* Removed some hidden dependencies on rubygems.  Tests now will test
434  gems only if they are installed.
435* Removed Sys from some example files.  I believe that is that last
436  reference to Sys outside of the contrib area.
437* Updated all copyright notices to include 2004.
438
439== Version 0.3.2
440
441* GEM Installation now works with the application stub.
442
443== Version 0.3.1
444
445* FileLists now automatically ignore CVS, .bak, !

474
475== Version 0.2.9
476
477This version contains numerous changes as the RubyConf.new(2003)
478presentation was being prepared.  The changes include:
