and destination directory arguments in options.</li>

<h2>1.0 (March 22, 2009)<a class="headerlink" href="#march-22-2009" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>If there is a task called “default”, it is run if Paver is run with no
tasks listed on the command line.</li>
<li>The auto task is run, even if no tasks are specified on the command line.</li>
<li>distutils’ log output is now routed through Paver’s logging functions,
which means that the output is now displayed once more (and is controlled
via Paver’s command line arguments.)</li>
<li>The paver.setuputils.setup function will automatically call
install_distutils_tasks. This makes it a very convenient way to upgrade
from distutils/setuptools to Paver.</li>
<li>Nicer looking error when you run Paver with an unknown task name.</li>
<li>fix the md5 deprecation warning in paver.path for real (forgot to delete the
offending import). Also fixed an import loop when you try to import
paver.path.</li>
<li>Improved docs for 1.0</li>
<li>Paver now requires Sphinx 0.6 for the docs. In Paver’s conf.py for Sphinx,
there is an autodoc Documenter for handling Paver Tasks properly.</li>
</ul>

<h2>1.0b1 (March 13, 2009)<a class="headerlink" href="#b1-march-13-2009" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>added call_task to environment and paver.easy, so it should be easy to call
distutils tasks, for example. (Normally, with Paver 1.0, you just call Paver
tasks like normal functions.)</li>
<li>added setup() function to paver.setuputils that is a shortcut for
setting options in options.setup. This means that you switch from
distutils to Paver just by renaming the file and changing the
import.</li>
<li>the -h command line argument and “help” task have been unified. You’ll
get the same output regardless of which one you use.</li>
<li>the auto task is no longer called when you run the help task (issue #21).
As part of this, a new “no_auto” decorator has been created so that any
task can be marked as not requiring the auto behavior.</li>
<li>consume_args and PavementError are now included in paver.easy (thanks to
Marc Sibson)</li>
<li>more methods in paver.path now check for existence or lack thereof
and won’t fail as a result. (mkdir and makedirs both check that the
directory does not exist, rmdir and rmtree check to be sure that
it does.) This is because the goal is ultimately to create or remove
something... paver just makes sure that it either exists or doesn’t.</li>
<li>fix md5 deprecation warning in paver.path (issue #22)</li>

<ul>
<li><p class="first">Added automatic running of “auto” task. If there’s a task with the name “auto”,
it is run automatically. Using this mechanism, you can write code that sets up
the options any way you wish, and without using globals at all (because the
auto task can be given options as a parameter).</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">When generating egg_info running “paver”, the full path to the Paver script
was getting included in egg-info/SOURCES.txt. This causes installation problems
on Windows, at the very least. Paver will now instead place the pavement
that is being run in there. This likely has the beneficial side effect of
not requiring a MANIFEST.in file just to include the pavement.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">the options help provided via the cmdopts decorator now appears</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">pavements can now refer to __file__ to get their own filename. You can also
just declare pavement_file as an argument to your task function, if
you wish.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">call_pavement now switches directories to the location of the pavement and
then switches back when returning</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">if you try to run a function as a task, you’ll now get a more appropriate
and descriptive BuildFailure, rather than an AttributeError</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">paver can now again run tasks even when there is no pavement present.
any task accessible via paver.easy (which now also includes misctasks)
will work.</p>
</li>
<li><p class="first">added the pushd context manager (Python 2.5+). This will switch into another
directory on the way in and then change back to the old directory on
the way out. Suggested by Steve Howe, with the additional suggestion from
Juergen Hermann to return the old directory:</p>

<h2>1.0a2 (February 26, 2009)<a class="headerlink" href="#a2-february-26-2009" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>The bug that caused 1.0a1 to be recalled (distutils command options)
has been fixed thanks to Greg Thornton.</li>
<li>If you provide an invalid long task name, you will no longer get an
AttributeError. Thanks to Marc Sibson.</li>
<li>If a task has an uncaught exception, the debug-level output is displayed
<em>and</em> Paver will exit with a return code of 1. No further tasks are
executed. Thanks to Marc Sibson.</li>
<li>The version number is no longer displayed, so that you can reasonably
pipe the output elsewhere. A new –version option will display the version
as before.</li>
<li>Eliminate DeprecationWarnings in paver.ssh and paver.svn. Thanks to Marc
Sibson.</li>
<li>The html task will always be defined now when you import paver.doctools
but will yield a BuildFailure if Sphinx is not installed. Hopefully this
will lead to clearer errors for people. Thanks to Marc Sibson.</li>
<li>The Getting Started Guide has been improved for 1.0. Additionally,
the “newway” sample now has a MANIFEST.in which provides useful knowledge
for people.</li>
</ul>

<h2>1.0a1 (January 28, 2009)<a class="headerlink" href="#a1-january-28-2009" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>(note: 1.0a1 was recalled because it was unable to properly handle distutils command
line options.)</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>COMPATIBILITY BREAK: paver.misctasks is no longer imported by default, even when using paver.easy</li>
<li>DEPRECATIONS: paver.runtime and paver.defaults have been deprecated. Watch the
warnings for info on how to change to the new paver.easy module.</li>
<li>COMPATIBILITY WARNING: By default, the sh() function will now raise a
BuildFailure exception if the return code of the process is non-zero.
Passing ignore_error=True will switch back to the previous behavior.
Thanks to Marc Sibson.</li>
<li>There is a new call_pavement function (automatically imported with
from paver.easy import *) that can call another pavement file. The
new pavement gets its own environment/options but runs in the same
process.</li>
<li>You can now specify an alternate file to run rather than “pavement.py” using
the -f or –file global option. Thanks to Marc Sibson.</li>
<li>Regardless of logging level, output for a task is captured. If there is a BuildFailure,
then that captured output is displayed.</li>
<li>The new paver.tasks module encapsulates everything needed for running tasks
in a file. The distutils ties have been reduced.</li>
<li>@needs now accepts a list of requirements in the form @needs(‘task1’, ‘task2’)
(passing in a list still works as well)</li>
<li>Added paver.bzr (support for Bazaar-NG related operations), courtesy of
Bryan Forbes.</li>
<li>The error() function is now exported, for logging of errors (thanks to Marc Sibson)</li>
<li>Added handy paver.svn.export function for exporting an svn repository revision
(thanks to Marc Sibson)</li>
<li>The “scripts” directory has been renamed “distutils_scripts” to avoid name collision
on Windows.</li>

<h2>0.8.1 (June 2, 2008)<a class="headerlink" href="#june-2-2008" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Fix bug in minilib on Windows (error in rmtree). Also simplifies the minilib
implementation. Patch from Juergen Hermann.</li>
<li>Fix bug in virtualenv bootstrap generation (patches from Michael Greene and
Juergen Hermann. Michael Greene’s is the one that was applied.)</li>

<h2>0.8 (May 19, 2008)<a class="headerlink" href="#may-19-2008" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Installation on Windows was broken due to a / at the end of the /paver/tests
path in MANIFEST.in</li>
<li>Options can now be set on the command line using the syntax option.name=value.
Options are set at the point in which they appear on the command line, so
you can set one value before task1 and then another value before task2.</li>
<li>Option ordering can now take an explicit dictionary or Bunch added to the
ordering. This allows you to put in new options without changing the global
options dictionary and more closely resembles how options would be looked
up in a buildout.</li>
<li>call_task now supports an optional “options” argument that allows you to
pass in a dictionary or Bunch that is added to the front of the option
search ordering.</li>

<h2>0.7.3 (May 16, 2008)<a class="headerlink" href="#may-16-2008" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Added include_markers parameter to the paver.doctools.Includer to display a nice
comment with the name of the file and section. This can look more attractive than
the raw cog. By default, this is turned off. Set options.cog.include_markers
to an empty dictionary, and the default include markers will be used.</li>
<li>Added options.cog.delete_code to remove the generator code when cogging.
Default: false</li>
<li>Paver 0.7.2 could not be installed by zc.buildout on the Mac due to a problem
with the py2app command under that environment.</li>
<li>cog and tests were missing from shipped distributions (bug 229324, fixed with
a patch from Krys Wilken.)</li>
<li>Added svn.checkup function that does a checkout or update. This is like an
svn:externals that’s a bit more readable and easier to control, in my opinion.</li>

<h2>0.7.2 (May 8, 2008)<a class="headerlink" href="#may-8-2008" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Fixed Python 2.4 compatibility. The paver-minilib.zip file contained 2.5
.pyc files. .pyc files are not compatible between major Python versions.
The new version contains .py files.</li>

standard minilib)</li>

<h2>0.7 (May 7, 2008)<a class="headerlink" href="#may-7-2008" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Breaking changes:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>“targets” have become “tasks”, because that name is a clearer description.</li>
<li>paver.sphinxdoc has been renamed paver.doctools</li>
</ul>
<p>New features and changes:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>runtime.OPTIONS is gone now. The old voodoo surrounding the options() function
has been replaced with a distinctly non-magical __call__ = update in the
Namespace class.</li>
<li>distutils.core.setup is now the command line driver</li>
<li>distutils/setuptools commands can be seamlessly intermingled with Tasks</li>
<li>tasks can have command line settable options via the cmdopts decorator.
Additionally, they can use the consume_args decorator to collect up
all command line arguments that come after the task name.</li>
<li>Two new tasks: cog and uncog. These run Ned Batchelder’s Cog code
generator (included in the Paver package), by default against your
Sphinx documentation. The idea is that you can keep your code samples
in separate files (with unit tests and all) and incorporate them
into your documentation files. Unlike the Sphinx include directives,
using Cog lets you work on your documentation with the code samples
in place.</li>
<li>paver.doctools.SectionedFile provides a convenient way to mark off sections
of a file, usually for documentation purposes, so that those sections can
be included in another documentation file.</li>
<li>paver.doctools.Includer knows how to look up SectionedFiles underneath
a directory and to cache their sections.</li>
<li>options are now a “Namespace” object that will search the sections for
values. By default, the namespace is searched starting with top-level
items (preserving current behavior) followed by a section named the same
as the task, followed by all of the other sections. The order can
be changed by calling options.order.</li>
<li>option values that are callable will be called and that value returned.
This is a simple way to provide lazy evaluation of options.</li>
<li>Added minilib task that creates a paver-minilib.zip file that can be
used to distribute programs that use Paver for their builds so that
setup.py will run even without Paver fully installed.</li>
<li>Added generate_setup task that creates a setup.py file that will
actually run Paver. This will detect paver-minilib.zip if it’s
present.</li>
<li>The “help” task has been greatly improved to provide a clearer picture
of the tasks, options and commands available.</li>
<li>Add the ability to create virtualenv bootstrap scripts</li>
<li>The “help” property on tasks has changed to “description”</li>
<li>output is now directed through distutils.log</li>
<li>Ever improving docs, including a new Getting Started guide.</li>
<li>Changes to Paver’s bootstrap setup so that Paver no longer uses
distutils for its bootstrapping.</li>
</ul>
<p>There were no versions 0.5 and 0.6.</p>
