| |
| New Features |
| ------------ |
| * Add 'Expand All Comments' checkbox in PatchScreen |
| + |
| Allows users to save a user preference that automatically expands |
| any inline comment boxes when a page displays. |
| |
| * Multiple branches in ls-project |
| + |
| The -b option may be supplied multiple times to ls-project, each |
| usage adds a new column of output per project line listing the |
| current value of that branch. |
| |
| Bug Fixes |
| --------- |
| * issue 994 Rename "-- All Projects --" to "All-Projects" |
| + |
| The name "-- All Projects --.git" is difficult to work with on |
| the UNIX command line, due to tools assuming the name is actually |
| part of a long option. The project has been renamed to remove these |
| leading hypens, and remove spaces, making it more friendly to work |
| with on the command line. |
| |
| * issue 997 Resolve Project Owners when checking access rights |
| + |
| Members of the 'Project Owners' magical group did not always have |
| their project owner privileges when Gerrit Code Review was looking |
| for "access to any ref" at the project level. This was caused by |
| not expanding the 'Project Owner's group to the actual ownership |
| list. Fixed. |
| |
| * issue 999 Do not reset Patch History selection on navigation |
| + |
| Navigating to the next/previous file lost the setting of the |
| "Old Version" made under the "Patch History" expandable control |
| on a specific file view. This was accidentally broken when the |
| "Old Version History" control was added to the change page. Fixed. |
| |
| * issue 1001 Fix search by codereview status |
| + |
| Searching for labels (or any approval scores) was broken due to an |
| incorrect usage of the Java "equals()" method. Fixed. |
| |
| * issue 1000 Fix administration of projects with no access controls |
| + |
| Projects that had no access sections could not have additional |
| sections added to them, due to a bug in the web UI. Fixed. |
| |
| * Fix API breakage on ChangeDetailService |
| + |
| Version 2.1.7 broke the Gerrit Code Review plugin for Mylyn Reviews |
| due to an accidential signature change of one of the remote JSON |
| APIs. The ChangeDetailService.patchSetDetail() method is back to the |
| old signature and a new patchSetDetail2() method has been added to |
| handle the newer calling convention used in some contexts of the |
| web UI. |
| |
| * Add error messages for abandon and restore when in bad state |
| + |
| Instead of crashing with internal NullPointerExceptions, report |
| a better error message to clients when a change is being moved |
| between states. |
