== TortoiseHg 0.9 ==
Released November 16, 2009
Codenamed **Sandpaper**
=== Packaged Versions ===
TortoiseHg 0.9 requires Mercurial version 1.4
=== Behavior Changes ===
* dropped support for external commit tools
* potentially harmful extensions are no longer loaded for you. MQ, qup,
rebase, transplant, and fetch must be enabled by the user to unlock their
support inside the TortoiseHg tools.
* The synchronize tool has been deprecated. Most of it's functionality has
been merged into the changelog tool. Synchronize will be removed in a future
release.
* commit tool - after a commit, all remaining files are unchecked
* commit/status/etc - context menus were refactored as per issue #133
**Note** During upgrade, it is possible for the taskbar app to crash when the
installer closes it. This only happens if the taskbar config dialog has been
opened, and it only seems to happen on slower XP machines. It is also
harmless. The installer was trying to kill it, it just happened to die in a
non-orderly fashion. Just ignore the crash. If you don't want to see this
happen, simply exit the taskbar app before starting the upgrade.

= 0.8 Release July 1, 2009 =
== C++ Shell Extension ==
The Python shell extension has been removed in favor of a pure C++ shell
extension which directly reads the Mercurial dirstate for overlays, and
produces hard-coded context menus. This should fix much of the
interoperability problems reported in issue #67, and it fixes the
overlay performance problems we have suffered since version 0.1.
To support fast overlay icons, we have introduced a taskbar application
(thgtaskbar.exe, programmed in Python) that externalizes the refreshing
of cache information (new cache file ".hg/thgstatus") into a separate
server process (started on user logon), controlled by the shell
extension over a named pipe. thgtaskbar.exe adds a systray icon with an
options dialog to control settings affecting the shell extension.
== X64 Support ==
The C++ TortoiseHg shell extension works properly in x64 Vista and Win7
environments. Release 0.8 does not support having 32bit and 64bit
extensions installed on the same machine. We do plan to support this in
0.9.
== Translations ==
TortoiseHg 0.8 is the first release to include translations. This
release has translations for 13 locales. Eight of those are full or
nearly full translations.

RPM and DEB packages will be made available for download for this
release.

== Behavior Changes ==
The Ctrl-O accelerator in the commit tool removed, replaced by a
Ctrl-Enter generic accelerator that is common to many dialogs.
Shell extension configuration removed from Mercurial.ini. However they
are editable in the taskbar options dialog and changes made there take
effect immediately.
There is no supported method in 0.8 for de-registering the shell
extension without uninstalling THG. You can globally disable the
overlays via it's configurable option, but the context menu is always
present.
Merge and unmerge were removed from the shell context menu. You must
use the changelog tool to perform merges.
The changelog tool does not show all file diffs in a changeset right
away. It only shows the first file's diffs. To see all diffs at once,
the user must click 'All Files' at the top of the file list.
Changelog, commit, status, etc all obey a maximum file size for showing
diffs (default is 1MB). Files above this size will not be diffed for
performance reasons (obviously you can still commit them). This max
diff limit is configurable per-repository via the settings dialog.
The default dbl-click action in the Changelog tool is now visual diff.
In previous releases it was 'Display Change'.
Commit, status, shelve no longer show all diffs at once. They only show
diffs for the selected file. This change was made for performance
reasons.
The 'show diffs' button was removed from commit, status, shelve.
hgtk forks a separate process for GUI commands, freeing up the CLI.
HGTK_NOFORK environment variable and the --nofork argument disable the
forking behavior. This will be user configurable in 0.9.
== Installer / Source Changes ==
The hgtk script has been moved from contrb/ into the project root.
The hgproc script and batch file have been removed.
The tortoise python package has been removed.
The thgutil package has been added.
The tracelog application has been removed, since THG no longer uses
win32traceutil. Dbgview from sysinternals can be used to debug the new
shell extension.
The forest and qct extensions are no longer bundled. Forest is being
replaced by a core Mercurial feature (subrepo) in hg-1.3, and qct has
not been included in THG since 0.6. Both extensions can still be used
with THG 0.8, you must download them and then specify their full path in
your user Mercurial.ini file.
We no longer bundle extra GTK themes. We only ship MS-Windows since it
now works correctly on all the platforms we're interested in.
We no longer bundle msvcp71.dll and msvcr.dll
We no longer bundle Putty.exe and Puttygen.exe, but Pageant is still
included.
We now bundle win32 and x64 versions of TortoiseOverlays.

* thgconfig: UTF-8 fixes
* thgconfig: show description of selected item
* thgconfig: move 'bottom diffs' to tortoisehg page
* datamine: fix markup problem in status bar
* sync: allow bundles without .hg extension
* sync: handle non-ascii paths and aliases
* status: prevent traceback caused by toggling rename diffs

Fixes in Mercurial since 0.3:
* qimport fixed on Windows
* new built-in filemerge system replaces hgmerge patches
* many fixes for keyword extension
* new -U (context lines) argument for diff and qdiff commands
New features in 0.3
* Major improvements to changelog browser. It is now good enough to
deprecate both hgk and hgview. Neither are bundled with the 0.3
binary installer, but both can be added by the user if they wish.
Support for external revision log viewers will be dropped in 0.4.
* The new changelog browser supports filtering by file pattern,
keywords, dates, and branches. It is capable of graphing both the
repository changelog and individual filelogs. Changeset coloring by
author is optional (tortoisehg.authorcolor). All changeset graphing
is done incrementally in batches (tortoisehg.graphlimit: 500)
* New DataMine application for searching history (hg grep) and
inspecting file histories (hg annotate). This new application is
tabbed to facilitate debugging sessions where search results and
annotations can be grouped together for easy cross-reference.
* New changeset browser, supports multiple parents intrinsically and
supports a number of file-revision features (view at revision, save
at revision, annotate at revision, revert to revision, etc). The
new changeset browser is also integrated into the changelog browser.
* Standardized window layouts. Close buttons have been moved to the
toolbar. Dialogs that use progress bars now use a standard status
bar/progress bar widget. Tooltips have been added.
* Hgtk wrapper application for launching TortoiseHg dialogs from the
command line
* Support for an external visual editor: tortoisehg.editor. Takes
precedence over ui.editor when viewing files with TortoiseHg
* Performance improvements in Mercurial itself (cset 0973501e5f4a)
* New installer bitmap from Peer Sommerlund
* Misc: The Synchronize dialog has been improved. The Web Serve
dialog no longer requires a subprocess to run the web server. The
configuration dialog has a number of bug fixes for the paths tab,
and now has separators in the drop-down boxes for the varying value
types (current, suggested, history). Http authentication has been
fixed. The hg integration library has seen major cleanups.
Bug Fixes in 0.3:
* [ 1863086 ] "Revision Graph" fail on UNC path
Fixed by removing hgk from base install. Integrated log viewer
is UNC path safe.
* [ 1851395 ] Total Commander problem
* [ 1882074 ] global name 'p' is not defined
* [ 1854443 ] View changelog fails
New features in 0.2
* Gtools has been integrated into TortoiseHg proper. It is no longer
bundled as a Mercurial extension. The graphlog extension is now enabled
again by default (only usable from the CLI, however).
* Context menu icons, application window icons. The context menu has been
simplified.
* The changelog browser has a number of new features (filters and context
menu options). The tag browser and changelog tagging features have been
merged into this tool.
* Hgview is now the default history viewer, hgk is being deprecated.
* An email dialog for interfacing with the patchbomb extension. It can be
reached from the synchronize dialog and from the changelog browser.
* A new configuration tool (replacing hg-config dialogs) that allows you
to configure TortoiseHg and Mercurial.
* Most dialogs now use HgThread and GtkUI to run hg commands. These
classes run the command in a background thread and provide GUI prompts
for when user interaction is necessary (http web auth, etc). For some
commands, it also provides a progress bar.
* A preview of the new Mercurial merge back end. The python hgmerge.py
script is being integrated into Mercurial, and this installer has a
preview of how that will work. You need to unset any ui.merge in your
Mercurial.ini file in order for it to work properly. If you don't
configure anything it will use simplemerge to automatically perform
merges. If conflicts are found it falls back to kdiff3 to resolve
them interactively.
* Slight improvement on speed of overlay icons display.
* A new 'about' dialog.
Bugs fixed in 0.2
* [SF Bug #1851395] Overlay icons and context menus are no longer
restricted to MS-Explorer. So other file managers, such as Total
Commander, should be supported.
* [SF Bug #1844722] Users can now create repositories inside repository
via the context menu.
