347 response to POST is "technically disallowed", which I cannot find
348 in rfc2616 nor in rfc1945. Even if that were technically the

563 2003-11-09 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>

688 Reported by Herold Heiko.
690 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

734 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
736 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
738 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
739 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
741 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
743 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
746 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

755 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
757 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
758 non-interactive in all cases.
760 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
762 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
763 running mkinstalldirs.
765 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
767 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
768 outside the source tree.
769 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
770 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
772 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
774 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

785 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
787 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
789 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

801 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
803 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
806 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
808 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
809 accurately what --convert-links does.
811 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
813 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
814 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
816 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
818 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
819 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
820 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
822 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
824 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
825 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
827 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
829 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
830 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
831 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
832 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
833 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
834 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
836 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
838 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
839 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
840 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
841 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
842 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
843 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
844 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
845 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
847 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
849 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
850 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
851 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
854 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
856 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
857 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
858 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
860 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
862 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
863 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
864 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
865 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
867 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
869 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
870 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
871 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
872 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
873 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
875 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
876 automatic manpage generation.
878 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
880 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
881 correction to the description of --continue.
883 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
885 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
886 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
888 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
890 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
892 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
893 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
894 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
895 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
896 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
897 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
899 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
900 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
901 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
903 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
904 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
905 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
906 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
908 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
910 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
911 but in the current build dir.
913 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
915 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
918 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
920 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
921 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
922 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
924 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
926 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
928 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
930 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
932 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
934 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
935 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
938 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
940 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
942 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
944 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
946 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
948 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
950 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
952 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
954 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
956 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
957 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
958 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
960 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
962 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
964 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
966 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
967 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
968 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
969 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
970 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
972 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
974 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
976 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
978 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
979 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
981 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
983 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
984 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
986 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
987 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
989 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
990 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
992 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
994 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
995 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
996 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
997 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
998 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
999 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1000 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1002 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1004 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1005 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1007 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1009 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1010 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1012 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1014 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1016 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1018 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1019 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1021 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1022 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1023 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1025 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1026 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1027 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1028 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1030 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1032 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1033 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1034 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1035 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1036 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1038 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1040 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1041 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1042 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1045 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1047 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1048 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1049 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1050 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1051 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1052 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1053 ignore_tags commands.
1055 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1057 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1065 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1066 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1068 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1070 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1071 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1072 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1074 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1076 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1077 --backup-converted option.
