2008-04-20  Alan Sundell  <sundell@gmail.com>
	* Version 0.15.2

2008-04-18  Alan Sundell  <sundell@gmail.com>
	* Makefile: fix 'dist' target to work with svn

2008-03-02  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Makefile: remove debian directory from tarball, to make Andrew
	    Pollock happy; make a separate tarball for the (suggested) debian
	    directory, to make me happy until his debian patch becomes
	    available
	* src/Slack.pm, test/01_module.t: apply Steve Atwell's get_system_exit
	    patch.  This uses the POSIX macros for exit statues, makes the
	    tests work on OpenBSD, and removes the bit that checks core dumps,
	    since it was kind of silly and awkward to test, anyway.
	* src/Makefile: another OpenBSD patch from Steve Atwell -- don't
	    specify -p with -d when using install (doesn't make sense, anyway)

2008-01-19  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.15.1

2008-01-18  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Makefile: minor changes to 'dist' target
	* src/slack-sync: use --files-from=- to do the whole sync at once. 
	    On my systems for a 15-role sync this cuts the time from
	    4-5 sec to 0.4-0.5 sec.
	* test/*: unittest updates, change handling of temp dir
	* Slack.pm: wrap_rsync() and wrap_rsync_fh() replace some duplicated
	    code in the backends.
	
2008-01-14  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.15.0
	* src/Makefile: install slack.conf without the execute bit (thanks to
	    Andrew Pollock)
	* Makefile, debian/*: pull in a bunch of changes from Andrew Pollock's
	    debian patch (perhaps to his frustration), with a few changes
	    to preserve permissions on /var/lib/slack and /var/cache/slack;
	    and a few of my own changes to the way debs are built.
	* src/slack: Propagate --rsh to backends so the option actually works
	    
2008-01-12  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Slack.pm, slack-sync, slack-getroles: patch to add --rsh/-e option
	    from David Lowry.  This allows us to explicitly enable the
	    behavior implied by a double colon in SOURCE.
	* slack-stage: fix from Brian Brazil for a bug that occurs with
	    files in a subrole that have the same size and timestamp as
	    those in a parent role, such as can occur when the two files
	    are checked into a repository at the same time.
	* slack: add a --sleep option for a random sleep.  Useful in
	    crontabs, where doing 'sleep $(($RANDOM % 3600)) && slack'
	    can run you afoul of cron's treatment of '%'.
	* Slack.pm: add a --version option
	* slack.spec: integrate some minor changes from Gordon Messmer's
	    patch (much already done by David Lowry's patch), most
	    significantly adding username to buildroot

2007-06-15  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* doc/slack.conf.5: describe the four forms of SOURCE

2007-01-25  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* src/Makefile: mkdir /usr/bin to fix slack-diff install (thanks
			to Robert Flemming and Chris Heiser)
	* slack.spec: new, much-improved spec file from David Lowry

2006-11-05  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.14.1
	* slack-getroles: remove --delete from rsync options (incompatible
	    with newer versions [2.6.8] of rsync without -r); call
	    check_system_exit() properly

2006-10-12  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.14.0
	* slack.8: added missing and new options, and a section
	    on preview modes
	* slack: made --preview require a mode to avoid confusion of preview
	    modes and role names; made 'prompt' preview mode run the
	    preinstall/fixfiles scripts before showing file diff

2006-09-25  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* slack-rolediff: renamed from slack-preview to avoid name conflict
	* 08_diff.t: tests for slack-diff

2006-09-21  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* COPYING, GPL, CREDITS: add license, attribution
	* README: lots of new text about slack
	* slack-installfiles: when creating ROOT, make it mode 0755

2006-03-21  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* slack-diff: new diffing tool
	* slack-preview: new slack backend for diffing tool
	* slack-stage: allow specifying a subdir (files/script) to stage

2005-10-30  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* slack.spec: expect slack.conf in sysconfdir (since that's where
	    we install it)
	* slack-installfiles: use program name when logging "Creating
	    backup directory" message (like all other messages)

2005-02-09  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.13.2
	* slack-installfiles: fail gracefully if no files to install

2005-01-08  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.13.1
	* test: added tests for each of the backends
	    * testsource: mockup roles for testing
	    * test_util.pm: common functions, variables for testing
	    * gen_config_file: generate config files with full paths
			       for testing
	* test: added tests for the frontend
	* slack: call check_system_exit with full name (fixes undefined
	    subroutine error when a backend failed)
	* Slack.pm: say commands "exited" with their exit code,
	    rather than "returned"
	* slack-stage: in the base role, delete the destination if the
	    source doesn't exist
	* slack-sync: remove unused variable

2005-01-05  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* slack-getroles: add a --remote-role-list option to force local sync
	* slack-sync: we don't need File::Find anymore
	* slack-runscript: mention when we skip a non-existant script
	    if verbose is on.

2005-01-04  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* added support for "make dist"
	* slack-getroles: don't prepend source for paths to role-list
	    beginning with './' (important for testing)
	* Slack.pm: get_options(): generate default usage if no usage given
		    get_options(): don't pass back the --quiet handler
	* added support for "make test"
	* test: added Slack.pm tests
	* [Makefiles]: support a common set of install-* targets

2004-12-22  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.13
	* slack,Slack.pm,slack-getroles: add a --hostname option,
	    use that to select roles when provided.
	* slack-runscript: export these options to the environment:
		root, stage, hostname, verbose
	* slack: add --no-sync option to skip syncing
		 add --libexec-dir option for testing
		 reclaim run_command() and rename it run_backend(),
		    handle libexec dir in there.
	* Slack.pm: fix handling of config file parsing verbosity
	    back to previous behavior (broken in 0.12.2)
	* src/Makefile: install Slack.pm mode 644

2004-12-21  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.12.2
	* Slack.pm: A new common library
	* [all]: Use new Slack.pm functions
	* slack: allow --noscripts, --nofiles as --no-scripts, --no-files
	* slack-getroles: fix broken handling of cache, source with
	    respect to role-list

2004-12-21  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.12.1
	* slack: refer to installfiles backend flags consistently --
		 fixes bug introduced in 0.11 that broke backups

2004-12-03  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.12
	* slack: run fixfiles just before installfiles and after preinstall
	         so that preinstall can, e.g, create users

2004-11-11  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>
	* Version 0.11
	* slack: store backend flags separately for each backend
	* slack: support --no-scripts, --no-files, change -n to just
		 mean both of those, rather than the pretty useless
		 "don't do anything, not even refreshing the cache"
	* [all]: Try to get some sensible output at verbosity level 2

2004-10-29  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Version 0.10.2
	* [all]: use full role names in the stage directory, so there
	    aren't collisions when multiple subroles are installed
	* slack: call slack-sync once with all the roles
	* slack-sync: only sync each base role once
	* slack-stage: fix copy/paste variable misnomer

	* Version 0.10.1

	* slack-getroles: allow digits in hostnames

2004-07-18  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Version 0.6
	* slack-sync: reduce number of calls to rsync, made some
	    exception handling more graceful and informative

2004-07-17  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Version 0.5
	* require rsync 2.6.0
	* slack-sync: dereference symlinks (--copy-links)

2004-06-03  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Version 0.4
	* Changes to the way backups are handled
	    * slack: choose a backup directory based on date
	    * slack-sync,slack-getroles,slack-installfiles: use a --backup
		and a --backup-dir option, like rsync
	    * slack.conf: set BACKUP_DIR
	    The current scheme is a little fragile and will probably change.

	* Changes to verbosity:
	    * slack: chop off one level of verbosity to modules
	    * [modules]: bump verbosity thresholds down one

	* slack-sync: transfer files with --perms, so when people make old
	    files (non-)executable in the repository, the change will 
	    propagate.

	* slack-installfiles: mkdir $opt{root} in an eval


2004-05-31  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Version 0.3
	* [all]: use sigtrap
	* [modules]: be silent with just one -v
		     redirect rsync's STDOUT to STDERR
	* slack: propagate verbosity down to modules
		 make level-1 verbosity less noisy, easier to read
		 fix error-checking after system()
	* slack-sync: check perms on $opt{cache}/roles (root:root 0700)

2004-05-23  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Version 0.2
	* slack,slack-runscript: Renamed "fixperms" to "fixfiles".
	* slack-sync: Fixed bug that would make installing a subrole
		      install files from the subrole only, not its parent.
	* slack.conf: Changed default master to rsyncd-over-ssh.

2004-05-23  Alan Sundell  <alan@sundell.net>

	* Initial Version (0.1)
