|
|
* Release v21:
|
|
|
|
- New mailing list for developer discussion and announcements:
|
|
|
|
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups%5C#!forum/autojump
|
|
|
|
- Switch to semantic versioning (http://semver.org/): major.minor.micro
|
|
|
|
Major = breaks backwards compatibility
|
|
minor = new features with backwards compatibility
|
|
micro = bug fixes with backwards compatibility
|
|
|
|
- Migration code for v17 or older users has been removed.
|
|
|
|
During testing, it was apparent that the migration code wasn't working to
|
|
begin with. The major distros (Debian, RedHat) have already moved to v18+ for
|
|
LTS. Rolling release distros and Homebrew / Macports are regularly kept up to
|
|
date.
|
|
|
|
Users upgrading from v17 or older will start with a new database.
|
|
|
|
- Approximate matching introduced.
|
|
|
|
Matching priority is now:
|
|
1. exact match
|
|
2. case insensitive match
|
|
3. approximate match
|
|
|
|
- The `j` function now accepts autojump arguments (e.g. --help, --stat).
|
|
|
|
As a result, the `jumpstat` alias is now removed. The preferred method is `j
|
|
--stat` or `j -s`. Consequently, autojump cannot jump to directories
|
|
beginning with a hyphen '-'.
|
|
|
|
- Always use case insensitive search with AUTOJUMP_IGNORE_CASE=1
|
|
|
|
As mentioned earlier, normal priority is to prefer exact match and then check
|
|
for case insensitive match. For users who prefer case insensitivity can now
|
|
modify the program behavior.
|
|
|
|
- Prevent database decay with AUTOJUMP_KEEP_ALL_ENTRIES=1
|
|
|
|
The database is regularly trimmed for performance reasons. However users can
|
|
prevent database maintenance with the above environmental variable.
|
|
|
|
- Database entry weight growth changed form linear to logarithmic scale.
|
|
|
|
A combination of low total weight ceiling and linear growth resulted in
|
|
a few, commonly used directories to be responsible for 50%+ of the total
|
|
database weight. This caused unnecessary trimming of long tail entries.
|
|
|
|
Switching to logarithmic growth combined with regular decay meant that
|
|
commonly used directories still climbed database ranking appropriately with a
|
|
more even weight distribution.
|
|
|
|
- Unit testing suite added.
|
|
|
|
- Miscellaneous refactoring, bug fixes, documentation updates.
|
|
|
|
* Release v20:
|
|
|
|
- Python versions supported is now v2.7+ and v3.2+ due to rewrite using
|
|
argparse.
|
|
|
|
- Man page and --help has been overhauled to provide better documentation and
|
|
usage scenarios.
|
|
|
|
- Installation scripts now act dependent on current environmental settings.
|
|
|
|
If run as root, will do a global install. Installation script also detects
|
|
which version to install (bash or zsh) dependent on $SHELL. Both of these
|
|
behaviors can be overrode using --local/--global or --bash/--zsh arguments.
|
|
|
|
- Uninstallation script added, will remove both global and local installations
|
|
but ignores database.
|
|
|
|
- Allow symlink database entries with AUTOJUMP_KEEP_SYMLINKS=1
|
|
|
|
Normally symlinks are resolved to full path to prevent duplicate database
|
|
entries. However users who prefer symlink paths can modify behavior with the
|
|
above environmental variable.
|
|
|
|
- This change log added to better help package maintainers keep track of
|
|
changes between releases.
|
|
|
|
- Miscellaneous bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
* Release v19:
|
|
|
|
- prototype `cp` and `mv` directory tab completion
|
|
- Debian post-installation instructions
|
|
- minor Mac OS X fixes
|
|
|
|
* Release v18:
|
|
|
|
- add automated version numbering
|
|
- performance tweaks to reduce filesystem checks
|
|
- add local installation option
|
|
- unicode fixes
|
|
- ugly fixes for Python 3
|
|
- migrate to new database format
