- # Summary of release changes, see commit history for more details:
- # https://github.com/joelthelion/autojump/commits/master/
-
- * Release v21.3.0:
-
- - `jumpapplet` removed.
- - performance improvements when using network mounts (e.g. sshfs)
-
- * Release v21.2.0:
-
- - Add `jc` command (jump child). Jumps to a subdirectory of the current
- working directory.
-
- * Release v21.1.0:
-
- - install.sh is rewritten to add support for --path and --destdir options,
- making it easier for package maintainers to install autojump specifically into
- certain locations. Thanks to jjk-jacky for his contributions.
-
- * Release v21.0.0:
-
- - 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.
-
- - ZSH tab completion fixed.
-
- ZSH behavior now matches Bash behavior. However it requires the `compinit`
- module to be loaded. Add the following line to ~/.zshrc:
-
- autoload -U compinit; compinit
-
- To use type:
-
- j<space><tab><tab>
-
- A menu showing the top database entries will be displayed. Type in any number
- followed by <tab> to complete the entry.
-
- - 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.
-
- - Vendorize argparse so now Python v2.6+ is supported (from v2.7).
-
- - Unit testing suite added.
-
- - Miscellaneous refactoring, bug fixes, documentation updates.
-
- * Release v20.0.0:
-
- - 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 ChangeLog added to better help package maintainers keep track of
- changes
- between releases.
-
- - Miscellaneous bug fixes.
-
- * Release v19.0.0:
-
- - prototype `cp` and `mv` directory tab completion
- - Debian post-installation instructions
- - minor Mac OS X fixes
-
- * Release v18.0.0:
-
- - 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
