Changelog

2.0.3 (unreleased)

• Nothing changed yet.

2.0.2 (2024-04-24)

• Fix ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2). [flipmcf]

2.0.1 (2020-08-19)

• Fix bin/develop help on Python 3.

2.0.0 (2019-03-04)

• Remove deprecated -n/--dry-run option from rebuild/rb command. [fschulze]
• Use universal_newlines to deal with all output for git. [pbauer]
• Fix verbose status in python 3. [pbauer]
• Drop testing with Python 2.6 and Python 3.3, from now on there is no guarantee it will work with those Python versions. [fschulze]

1.38 (2017-03-17)

• Use from __future__ import print_function to fix output of help --rst. [fschulze]
• Set empty version pin for develop packages instead of removing the version pin from the section. [fschulze]

1.37 (2017-03-04)

• Add more info on git operations, so one can see which repository is cloned and which branch is used. [fschulze]
• Fix git submodules with git 2.x. [fschulze]

1.36 (2017-03-01)

• Add the buildout option mr.developer-verbose that enables showing the same out when running buildout as when running ./bin/develop up -v. [sunew]
• Respect the buildout -v setting for updates, just as it already does for checkouts. [sunew]

1.35 - 2017-02-01

• Do not use the backport of configparser on Python2, to fix "Option values must be strings" exception on some commands. [MatthewWilkes]
• No longer test on Python 3.2. [maurits]
• Improve error message when a directory isn't found in fs mode. [idgserpro]

1.34 - 2015-09-30

• Remove support for python 2.4 and 2.5. Use python 2.6 or higher or python 3.2 or higher. [reinout]

• Fix switching to git branch from revision. When currently you are not on a git branch (for example on a tag), running a develop update would try to pull and fail. Now we simply fetch, and handle possible branch switching and merging the same as we always do. Fixes issue #162 [maurits]
• Fix unpinning of eggs with a name containing characters not in [^A-Za-z0-9.] This means that to correctly unpin pkg.foo_bar we have to delete pkg.foo-bar from the buildout [version] section. [ale-rt (Alessandro Pisa)]

• Added compat.py for Python 3. [jod (Josip Delic)]

0.8 - 2009-03-25
