qtcreator-plugin-fossil ChangeLog {#qtc-fossil-changelog}

4.12.4_1 - 2020-07-14

• Adapted to Qt Creator 4.12.4 VcsBase framework

4.12.1_2 - 2020-07-14

• Adapted to fossil 2.12 (fossil info command outputs hash: now, instead of uuid: as previously). Older fossil versions should still function properly.

• FIXED:Fossil Status action outputs the repository status details into the Version Control output pane; the version hash-string is highlighted as a link. Clicking on such hash-string link fails due to absence of Git(!!) repository.

• FIXED:Fossil Clone import-wizard incorrectly pre-fills the Local Repostiory name from the entered Remote Repository location.

• FIXED:Fossil Push/Pull actions always require entering full URL, even it should have been saved already.

4.12.1_1 - 2020-06-13

• Adapted to Qt Creator 4.12.1 VcsBase framework

• ISSUE:Fossil Status action outputs the repository status details into the Version Control output pane; the version hash-string is highlighted as a link. Clicking on such hash-string link fails due to absence of Git(!!) repository.

4.11.2_1 - 2020-06-11

• Main development shifted over to plugin-fossil-scm repository hosted at Qt Creator project

• Adapted to Qt Creator 4.11.2 VcsBase framework

• ISSUE:Fossil Clone import-wizard incorrectly pre-fills the Local Repostiory name from the entered Remote Repository location.

• Apply custom syntax highlighter to timeline view

• FIXED:Timeline Current File shows complete timeline with file's changes from all branches, not only the current branch. fossil client currently has no facility to subset a file's timeline by branch and starting time (see fossil help finfo).

3.0.1_2 - 2014-07-17

• client min. version fossil 1.29

• Show current branch name indicator appended to the opened project name

2.4.1_2 - 2013-07-21

• client min. version fossil 1.26

• FIXED:Diff does not show contents of added/deleted files, only lists file status ADDED/DELETED. This is a limitation of the current fossil client version.

2.4.1_1 - 2013-02-16

• Based on Qt Creator 2.4.1 VCSBase framework

• client min. version fossil 1.25

• create local fossil repository

• clone a remote fossil repository (via New File or Project... VCS clone wizard)

• add/delete/rename tracked files

• show current status of the repository and current files

• commit changes made (branch and tag on commit)

• show timeline of the commits

• annotate file source lines with respective check-ins

• diff changes

• check-out/revert files in given revision

• push/pull/update changes to/from remote repository

• ISSUE:Diff does not show contents of added/deleted files, only lists file status ADDED/DELETED. This is a limitation of the current fossil client version.

• ISSUE:Diff has no ignore white-space option. fossil client currently does not support this (see fossil help diff).

• ISSUE:Timeline Current File shows complete timeline with file's changes from all branches, not only the current branch. fossil client currently has no facility to subset a file's timeline by branch and starting time (see fossil help finfo).

• ISSUE:Annotate Current File does not allow re-annotation of revisions other than the currently checked-out. This is a limitation of fossil annotate client command. However prior revisions' changes are properly described/diff'ed.

• ISSUE:Fossil Commit/Update fail to auto-sync due to missing password. This is because Fossil Clone fails to save the specified password, since fossil clone client command can only show the save-password prompt interactively, which is not available in plugin context.

  • WORKAROUND:Autosync needs both the remote address and the login details. Fossil Clone saves remote address and username when given, yet fails to save the password. To save password manually after the cloning -- open the terminal and from the repository working directory execute fossil update, it should prompt for password and then ask again to save it; accept it and the Autosync should then work properly in plugin context.

• ISSUE:Fossil Clone does not bring up SSH_ASKPASS prompt. fossil client appears to not have support for this. So the password has to be specified explicitly username:passwd@host.

• ISSUE::[Q_OS_WIN32]:Fossil Diff incorrectly lists the contents of diff chunks, it inserts extra empty lines for each valid line of code. This issue is internal to fossil diff output, when dealing with Windows CR-LF endings. The resulting output contains mixed line-endings, which then are not getting properly stripped.

• ISSUE::[Q_OS_WIN32]:Fossil Commit shows error after adding newly created files: "Abandoning commit due to CR/NL line-endings in .\filename.ext". This is specific to Windows where newline is CR-LF, fossil warns of potential incompatibilty with other platforms.

  • WORKAROUND:fossil has crnl-glob setting to allow CR-LF, CR, LF, or mixed line-endings in specified file names (see fossil help settings). To allow all files: fossil set crnl-glob *,. NOTE comma in *, -- this way it does not get expanded by cmd-shell.
