-
-=== 1.2.0 / 2008-06-21
-
-New features:
-
-* RubyGems no longer performs bulk updates and instead only fetches the gemspec
- files it needs. Alternate sources will need to upgrade to RubyGems 1.2 to
- allow RubyGems to take advantage of the new metadata updater. If a pre 1.2
- remote source is in the sources list, RubyGems will revert to the bulk update
- code for compatibility.
-* RubyGems now has runtime and development dependency types. Use
- #add_development_dependency and #add_runtime_dependency. All typeless
- dependencies are considered to be runtime dependencies.
-* RubyGems will now require rubygems/defaults/operating_system.rb and
- rubygems/defaults/#{RBX_ENGINE}.rb if they exist. This allows packagers and
- ruby implementers to add custom behavior to RubyGems via these files. (If
- the RubyGems API is insufficient, please suggest improvements via the
- RubyGems list.)
-* /etc/gemrc (and windows equivalent) for global settings
-* setup.rb now handles --vendor and --destdir for packagers
-* `gem stale` command that lists gems by last access time
-
-Bugs Fixed:

-* RubyGems gracefully handles ^C while loading .gemspec files from disk, bug
- #20523
-* Paths are expanded in more places, bug #19317, bug #19896

-* Gem.default_path is now honored if GEM_PATH is not set, patch #19502
-
-Other Changes Include:

- * stub files created by RubyGems 0.7.x and older are no longer removed. When
- upgrading from these ancient versions, upgrade to 1.1.x first to clean up
- stubs.
- * RDoc is no longer required until necessary, patch #20414
-* `gem server`
- * Now completely matches the output of `gem generate_index` and
- has correct content types

- need to be restarted after installing gems.
-* `gem query --details` and friends now display author, homepage, rubyforge url
- and installed location
-* `gem install` without -i no longer reinstalls dependencies if they are in
- GEM_PATH but not in GEM_HOME

-
-=== 1.1.0 / 2008-03-29
-
-New features:
-
-* RubyGems now uses persistent connections on index updates. Index updates are
- much faster now.
-* RubyGems only updates from a latest index by default, cutting candidate gems
- for updates to roughly 1/4 (at present). Index updates are even faster
- still.
- * `gem list -r` may only show the latest version of a gem, add --all to see
- all gems.

-=== 0.9.4 / 2007-05-23
-
-If you are experiencing problems with the source index (e.g. strange
-"No Method" errors), or problems with zlib (e.g. "Buffer Error"
-messsage), we recommend upgrading to RubyGems 0.9.4.
-
-Bug Fixes Include:
-
-* Several people have been experiencing problems with no method errors
- on the source index cache. The source index cache is now a bit more
- self healing. Furthermore, if the source index cache is
- irreparable, then it is automatically dropped and reloaded.
-* The source cache files may now be dropped with the "gem sources
- --clear-all" command. (This command may require root is the system
- source cache is in a root protected area).
-* Several sub-commands were accidently dropped from the "gem" command.
- These commands have been restored.
-
-=== 0.9.3 / 2007-05-10
-
-Bug Fixes Include:
-
-The ZLib library on Windows will occasionally complains about a buffer error
-when unpacking gems. The Gems software has a workaround for that problem, but
-the workaround was only enabled for versions of ZLib 1.2.1 or earlier. We
-have received several reports of the error occuring with ZLib 1.2.3, so we
-have permanently enabled the work around on all versions.
-
-=== 0.9.2 / 2007-02-05
-
-Bug Fixes Include:
-
-* The "unpack" command now works properly.
-* User name and password are now passed properly to the authenticating
- proxy when downloading gems.
-
-=== 0.9.1 / 2007-01-16
-
-See ChangeLog
-
-=== 0.9.0 / 2006-06-28
-
-Finally, the much anticipated RubyGems version 0.9.0 is now available.
-This release includes a number of new features and bug fixes. The
-number one change is that we can now download the gem index
-incrementally. This will greatly speed up the gem command when only a
-few gems are out of date.
-
-Major Enhancments include:
-
-* The gem index is now downloaded incrementally, only updating entries
- that are out of date. If more than 50 entries are out of date, we
- revert back to a bulk download.
-* Several patches related to allowing RubyGems to work with
- authenticating proxies (from Danie Roux and Anatol Pomozov). Just
- put the user and password in the proxy URL (e.g. -p
- http://user:password@proxy.address.com:8080) or use the
- HTTP_PROXY_USER and HTTP_PROXY_PASS environment variables.
-* The gem unpack command can now accept a file path rather than just a
- install gem name.
-* Both RI and RDOC documents are now generated by default.
-* A gemri command is included to read gem RI docs (only needed for
- Ruby 1.8.4 or earlier).
-
-Minor enhancements include:
-
-* Verison 0.0.0 is now a valid gem version.
-* Better detection of missing SSL functionality.
-* SSL is not required if the security policy does not require
- signature checking.
-* Rake built extensions are now supported (Tilman Sauerbeck).
-* Several autorequire bug fixes.
-* --traceback is now an alias for --backtrace (I can never remember
- which one it is).
-* SAFE=1 compatibility fixes.
-* .rbw is now a supported suffix for RubyGem's custom require.
-* Several Ruby 1.9 compatibility fixes (Eric Hodel).
-
-Bug Fixes:
-
-* Added dashes to gemspecs generated in Ruby 1.8.3. This solves some
- cross-Ruby version compatibility issues.
-* Fixed bug where the wrong executables could be uninstalled (Eric
- Hodel).
-* Fixed bug where gem unpack occasionally unpacked the wrong gem.
-* Fixed bug where a fatal error occured when permissions on .gemrc
- were too restrictive (reported by Luca Pireddu).
-* Fixed prefix handling for native expressions (patch by Aaron Patterson).
-* Fixed several Upgrade => Update typos.
-
-=== 0.8.11 / 2005-07-13
-
-* -y is a synonym for --include-dependencies.
-* Better handling of errors in the top level rescue clause.
-* Package list command (e.g. gem inspect GEM).
-* .gemrc now allows cvsrc-like options to set defaults per subcommand.
-* The autorequire gem spec field will now accept a list.
-* Substituted Time for Date in specs, increasing performance
- dramatically.
-* Fixed reported bug of gem directories ending in "-" (reported by
- Erik Hatcher).
-* Fixed but in installer that caused dependency installation to not
- work.
-* Added Paul Duncan's gem signing patch.
-* Added Mark Hubbart's Framework patch (for better integration with OS
- X).
-* Added David Glasser's install-from-mirror patch.
-* Additional internal structural cleanup and test reorganization.
-
-=== 0.8.10 / 2005-03-27
-
-* In multi-user environments, it is common to supply mulitple versions of gems
- (for example Rails), allowing individual users to select the version of the
- gem they desire. This allows a user to be insulated from updates to that
- gem. RubyGems 0.8.10 fixes a problem where gems could occasionally become
- confused about the current versions of libraries selected by the user.
-* The other annoying bug is that if there are any existing rubygems-update gems
- installed, then the "gem update --system" command will download a new
- update, but install the latest update prior to the download.
-
-=== 0.8.9
-
-Never released
-
-=== 0.8.8 / 2005-03-14
-
-* Moved the master definition of class Requirement back under version.
- Kept the body of Requirement under Gem.
-
-=== 0.8.7 / 2005-03-14
-
-Even though it has only been a few weeks since that last release,
-there are quite a number of new features in 0.8.7. A complete list of
-new features will be given below, but here is a summary of the hot
-items.
-
-* The bug that prevented some users from installing rails has been
- squashed. A big thanks to Bill Guindon (aGorilla) for helping track
- that one down.
-
-There are several new commands available on the gem command:
-
-* gem cleanup GEMNAME -- Cleanup (uninstall) all the old versions of
- gem. If the gem name is omitted, the entire repository is cleaned.
-* gem dependency GEMNAME -- Show the dependencies for the named gems.
- This is really helpful when trying to figure out what gem needs what
- other gem.
-
-There changes to the existing commands as well.
-
-* gem uninstall is much smarter about removing gems from the
- repository. Lists of gems are now uninstalled in proper dependency
- order (ie. if A depends on B, A is uninstalled first). Also,
- warnings about broken dependencies occur only when removing the
- *last* gem that supports a dependency is removed.
-
-Both gem install and gem uninstall support some new command line
-options that can reduce the amount of yes/no queries given the user.
-For install we have:
-
-* --ignore-dependencies -- Only install requests gems, no
- dependendecies are automatically installed.
-* --include-dependencies -- Automatically install dependencies,
- without confirmation.
-
-For gem uninstall, the new options are:
-
-* --all -- Uninstall all matching gems without confirmation.
-* --ignore-dependencies -- Uninstall, even if dependencies are broken.
-* --executables -- Remove executables without confirmation
-
-Under general cleanup, gems will not, by default, run RDoc on packages
-that do not have the RDoc flag set.
-
-And finally there is a new library file 'gemconfigure' to aid in
-writing version sensitive applications (without undue dependencies on
-RubyGems); and 'gemwhich', a short script to locate libraries in the
-file system. You can read more about them here:
-
-* gemconfigure: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/4#page73
-* gemwhich: http://docs.rubygems.org/read/chapter/17
-
-=== 0.8.6 / 2005-02-27
-
-* Fixed a small bug with shebang construction
-
-=== 0.8.5 / 2005-02-26
-
-Do you know how you used to dread getting the following message while
-installing gems?
-
- Updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org
-
-It could take up to 30 seconds (on my machine, even worse on others) for
-that crazy source index to update.
-
-This latest release of RubyGems speeds that wait time up considerably.
-The following table gives the following times for installing RedCloth
-with a required source index update on three system we had available to
-us. No RDoc generation was included in the following times.
-
- RubyGems Linux Mac OSX Windows
- 0.8.4 33 secs 73 secs 58 secs
- 0.8.5 8 secs 14 secs 21 secs
-
-The new caching code is at least 3x faster than previous versions. Woo
-Hoo!
-
-=== 0.8.4 / 2005-01-01
-
-* Rubygems 0.8.3's installer was broken unless you already had an older
- version of RubyGems installed. That's fixed.
-* Change in the way Gem::Specification internally deals with lazy attributes
- and defaults, bringing (with some loadpath_manager changes) a fairly
- significant increase in speed.
-* Support for lower-cased Gem file names (for you, Paul Duncan :)
-* Erik Veenstra's patch for making Gem versions sortable.
-
-=== 0.8.3 / 2004-12-07
-
-No real earth shattering news here, but there were a number of really
-annoying issues involving other libraries that RubyGems depends upon.
-0.8.3 contains some workarounds for these issues. In particular:
-
-* Added workaround for the null byte in Dir string issue. (see
- http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/121702).
- (Thanks to Mauricio Fernández for the quick response on this one).
-* Added workaround for old version of Zlib on windows that caused
- Ruwiki to fail to install. (see
- http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/121770)
-* Added workaround for large YAML file issues. (We dynamically cut
- down the size of the source index YAML file and seem to have worked
- around immediate issues.
-
-There has been some minor usability enhancements and changes ...
-
-* A user specific source index cache can be used when the site-wide
- cache is unwritable (i.e. because you are running as a non-admin).
- This *greatly* speeds up gem commands run in non-admin mode when the
- site-wide cache is out of date.
-* The gem command now used an HTTP HEAD command to detect if the
- server's source index needs to be downloaed.
-* gem check gemname --test will run unit tests on installed gems that
- have unit tests.
-* Multiple gem names are allowed on the gem install command line.
- This means you can do:
-
- gem install rake rails needle postgres-pr pimki
-
- (Ok, you get the idea)
-* Multiple authors my be specified in a Gem spec.
-* Switched to using setup.rb (rather than a custom install script) for
- the installation of RubyGems itself. If you have installed RubyGems
- before, double check the installation instructions and make sure you
- use setup.rb instead of install.rb.
-* Ryan Davis has provided a patch so you can use an env variable
- (GEM_SKIP), to tell loadpath_manager not to load gems of those
- names. This was useful for him while testing libs that he had in
- development.
-
-=== 0.8.1 / 2009-09-14
-
-* Quick release to capture some bug fixes.
-
-=== 0.8.0 / 2009-09-12
-
-* Remove need for library stubs. Set the RUBYOPT environment variable to
- include "rrubygems", and a normal require will find gem files. Continue to
- use 'require_gem gem_name, version' to specify gem versions.
-* Deprecated "test_suite_file" gemspec attribute in favor of "test_files" array.
-* Generates rdoc by default on installs.
-* Adopted tar/gzip file format, thanks to Mauricio Fernandez.
-* "gem rdoc" allows generation of rdoc after gem installation (will add a "gem
- test"
-* Application stubs can now accept an optional parameter of _VERSION_ that will
- run an arbitrary version of the application requested.
-* Various bug fixes
-* Various platform-independency improvements
-* "gem spec --all" displays spec info for all installed version of a given gem.
-* Dynamic caching of sources
-* Support for user-definable sources on the command line (thanks Assaph Mehr)
-* More intelligent support for platform-dependent gems. Use Platform::CURRENT
- when building a gem to set its platform to the one you're building on.
- Installation displays a choice of platform-dependent gems, allowing the user
- to pick.
-* Added "gem unpack" for "unpacking" a gem to the current directory
-
-=== 0.7.0 / 2004-07-09
-
-See ChangeLog
-
-=== 0.6.0 / 2004-06-08
-
-* Collapse output of --search and --list (and gem_server) operations so that
- each gem is listed only once, with each of its versions listed on the same
- line.
-* bin/gem: new --upgrade-all option allows one to upgrade every installed gem
-* new #required_ruby_version attribute added to gem specification for
- specifying a dependency on which version of ruby the gem needs. Format it
- accepts is the same as the Gem::Version::Requirement format:
-
- spec.required_ruby_version = "> 1.8.0"
-* --install-stub defaults to true, so library stubs are created
-
-=== 0.5.0 / 2004-06-06
-
-* Jim added the ability to specify version constraints to avoid API
- incompatibilities. This has been the subject of much debate for the past
- couple of months, with many ideas and code contributed by Eivind Eklund and
- Mauricio Fernandez. The following set of assertions shows how it works:
-
- assert_inadequate("1.3", "~> 1.4")
- assert_adequate( "1.4", "~> 1.4")
- assert_adequate( "1.5", "~> 1.4")
- assert_inadequate("2.0", "~> 1.4") # This one is key--the new operator
- # disallows major version number
- # differences.
-* Group gem search output when multiple versions exist for a given gem:
-
- activerecord (0.7.8, 0.7.7, 0.7.6, 0.7.5)
- Implements the ActiveRecord pattern for ORM.
-* Add arbitrary RDoc-able files via gemspec (not just Ruby source files) for
- people who have, for example, README.rdoc in their distributions. Add to
- gemspec via: spec.extra_rdoc_files = ["list", "of", "files"]. Ruby files are
- automatically included.
-* Some small bug fixes
-
-=== 0.4.0 / 2004-05-31
-
-* Minor bug fixes including Windows compatability issues
-
-=== 0.3.0 / 2004-04-30
-
-* Cleanup of command-line arguments and handling. Most commands accept a
- --local or --remote modifier.
-* Creation of Application Gems (packages that include executable programs).
- See http://rubygems.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl?DeveloperGuide for information
- on how to use it.
-* Basic functionality for installing binary gems from source (:extensions
- property of gem specification holds an array of paths to extconf.rb files to
- be used for compilation)
-* Install library "stub" allowing a normal 'require' to work (which then does
- the rubygems require and 'require_gem'
-* --run-tests runs the test suite specified by the "test_suite_file" property
- of a gem specification
-* HTTP Proxy support works. Rewrite of HTTP code.
-* Unit and functional tests added (see Rakefile).
-* Prompt before remote-installing dependencies during gem installation.
-* Config file for storing preferences for 'gem' command usage.
-* Generally improved error messages (still more work to do)
-* Rearranged gem directory structure for cleanliness.
-
-=== 0.2.0 / 2004-03-14
-
-* Initial public release
