[ANNOUNCE] bzr-svn 0.4.0

[Jelmer Vernooij]

I'm happy to announce that the next major version of bzr-svn, 0.4.0, has
just been released. This is a major release that fixes a large number of
bugs in the previous versions and, most importantly, adds support for
true push and the ability to use non-standard branch locations.

Please note that this version of bzr-svn creates revisions with
different revision ids than previous versions. In other words, existing
bzr-svn branches created with 0.3.x can not be used directly with 0.4.0
but will have to be upgraded to work with 0.4.0 using the "bzr
svn-upgrade" command.

The changes since 0.3.5 are:

  BUG FIXES

   * Non-ascii characters in file ids are now supported (fixes imports 
     of the Python repository).

   * Fixed error raised during version incompatibility. 
     (Wouter van Heyst, #80467)

   * Implemented Repository.get_revision_graph(None)

   * svn-import will no longer spin using CPU if the target directory 
     did not exist (#80223).

   * Remove branches when they are being replaced. Fixes      
     DivergedBranches error when using svn-import (#81908).
 
   * Consistently treat property changes as actual changes (#122115)

   * Be a bit less verbose when trying to connect (#124858)

   * Fix locking issues (#125212)

   * Warn when used with experimental version of mappings. (#117198)

   * Only warn about out of date mappings, bzr-svn version or 
     experimental mappings when the plugin is being used. (#93319)

   * Clearer warning when branch specified to svn-import. (#121391)

   * Support pushing multiple revisions in a row. (#115494)

   * Fix compatibility with Subversion 1.5. (#73918)

   * Fix import of svk:merge properties (need to be sorted 
     lexicographically).

   * Support possible_transports argument to BzrDir.sprout(). (#128500)

   * Fix incorrect delete when a child of a renamed directory is 
     removed.

   * Support pushing adding empty files. (#113667)

  BEHAVIOUR CHANGES

   * Use shared repositories by default in svn-import command.

   * Avoid muttering when possible.

  TESTS

   * Add blackbox test for svn-import with dumpfile. (#123493)

  PERFORMANCE

   * do_update() is now used to find the contents of a directory  
     recursively. This should reduce the number of roundtrips
     significantly when finding file id mappings.

   * Support read locking for Branch.

  FEATURES
   
   * add -v option to svn-upgrade

   * store and allow setting the branching scheme in subversion.conf

   * allow setting the branching scheme from a file property 
     on the repository root

   * Support true push (#80612).

   * Support commits in heavy checkouts (#79330).

   * Support using custom branching schemes.

   * Support pushing new branches.

   * Add --prefix option to svn-import. (#125993)

   * Add 'bzr help svn-branching-schemes'

   * Branching schemes can now be autodetected using some simple
     heuristics. (#81976)

   * Added command `svn-branching-scheme` for setting branching schemes.
     (#127003)

  INTERNALS

   * Implement SvnRaTransport.local_abspath(). (#117090)

   * Implement SvnRemoteAccess.create_branch().

   * Implement SvnWorkingTree.smart_add() (#79336)
