Changes for version 0.6.1

  • VCI now explicitly requires Perl 5.8. (We probably always did actually require 5.8, because some of our dependencies did.)
  • The POD has all been reviewed and improved, for every module.
  • VCI is no longer alpha-quality software, and so all such statements to that effect have been removed from the POD.
  • The VCI package now uses Module::Install instead of Module::Build
  • New Features:
    • There is a new "revno" accessor for Commit objects. "revision" now always represents the global revision id, if the VCS has one.
    • Commit objects have an "author" accessor in addition to the "committer" accessor, for VCSes that understand those things as separate concepts.
    • Added a new method to VCI.pm, "missing_requirements", to assist downstream consumers in figuring out what needs to be installed in order for certain VCI::VCS modules to work.
    • Svn: More debug output available.
  • API Changes:
    • A Commit's "moved" accessor now has Committable objects (File or Directory objects) for its values instead of strings.
    • Bzr: A Commit's "revision" accessor now returns a revid instead of a revision number. This also means that every method that takes "revision" as an argument works on revids intead of revision numbers.
  • Optimizations:
    • VCI now does nearly all of its internal class loading on-demand instead of during compile time. This eliminates dependency loops and probably helps some with startup time.
  • Bug Fixes:
    • The Cvs driver was unable to parse certain valid commit histories, meaning that sometimes commits would be missing. The parser has been re-written to be faster and more reliable.
