The latest interim release of Subversion is ready at
http://svn.collab.net/tarballs/subversion-0.33.0.tar.gz
The MD5 checksum is 938b452b50d02eeb72b50c344b34d8de.
This release contains a number of major improvements, due to the
efforts of many people around the world. I won't list them all by
name here, but... you know who you are. Thanks.
Notes:
- Despite earlier warnings, this release does NOT require a
repository dump/load cycle. (We've deferred those changes to
the next release.)
- If you run a mod_dav_svn server, you will need Apache HTTP
Server 2.0.48, from http://httpd.apache.org/download.cgi.
Please direct questions/comments to the users@subversion.tigris.org
and/or dev@subversion.tigris.org mailing lists.
Here is the CHANGES list for this release:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Version 0.33.0 (released 13 November 2003, revision r7737)
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/tags/0.33.0
NOTICES:
1. This client may be incompatible with ra_dav servers <= 0.31.
2. In order to make commits more responsive, repository
deltification is no longer automatic. However, you may want
to run deltification as a background process in your repository
post-commit hook. For example, the new post-commit.tmpl file
recommends 'nice -2 svnadmin deltify "$REPOS" -r "$REV" &'.
User-visible changes:
* now require APR/APU 0.9.5 (ships in Apache 2.0.48)
* lose automatic deltification, but recommend it in post-commit (r7695, #1573)
* new configuration and authn/authz support in ra_svn (r7604, r7601)
* much faster checkouts and updates, over both svn:// and http:// (#1429)
* new partial-authz feature: checkouts/updates just skip unauthorized items
* new 'use-commit-times = yes' config option to use commit-time timestamps
* new 'svnadmin hotcopy' command, like hot-backup.py (#1567)
* fix Win32 "access denied" error in renames (r7598, #1576)
* unnecessary working copy tree locks now avoided, to save time (#1245)
* Compatibility changes:
- lose ra_dav compatibility with servers 0.31 and earlier
- lose support for working copy format "1" (not created for over a year)
* 'svn diff' and other read-only actions now work in read-only working copies
* 'svn blame -rX' now does the intuitive thing
* 'svn log' output headers now say "rXXXX | " instead of "rev XXXX: "
* 'svnversion' no longer stymied by svn:externals
* new 'svn pd' alias for 'svn propdel'
* '-rCOMMITTED' keyword now works on more commands
* minor changes to output of 'svn ls -v' and 'svn st -v' (r7530)
* 'svn log --xml' now obeys the '-q' flag (r7555)
* cvs2svn.py bugfixes, especially issue #1440
* book and documentation updates
* many other enhancements, minor features, and bugfixes not listed here
Developer-visible changes:
* repair text- and prop-time in .svn/entries if spuriously wrong (r7565)
* speed up keyword translation (r7502)
* two new editor functions, absent_file() and absent_directory()
* ra_dav checkouts/updates no longer do O(n) number of GET, PROPFIND requests
* new svn_io_temp_dir function, will morph to apr_temp_dir_get soon
* new svn_io_file_close wrapper for apr_file_close
* new helper scripts for testing, see tools/test-scripts/svntest/
* many other changes not listed here
