358 * Makefile.in (wget.pod): Work with texi2pod.pl directly instead

381 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Removed statement that redirect in
382 response to POST is "technically disallowed", which I cannot find
383 in rfc2616 nor in rfc1945. Even if that were technically the
384 case, the widespreadedness of such responses would make the
385 prohibition irrelevant.
387 2005-05-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>
389 * wget.texi (Overview): Document --[no-]proxy as primarily being

409 (Download Options): Mention that decimal and subsecond values may
410 be used for timeouts.
412 2005-05-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>

555 2004-02-22 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>

594 * fdl.texi: New file.
596 * wget.texi: Upgrade to GNU Free Documentation License 1.2.
598 2003-11-09 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>
600 * wget.texi: Remove next/previous/up node links. Makeinfo doesn't

605 * wget.texi: No longer document options -s, -C, -g, and -G.

619 * Makefile.in (install.info): Handle the case when only wget.info
620 is generated from wget.texi. In that case, wget.info-*[0-9]
621 doesn't match anything and therefore ends up as a bogus value of
622 FILE in the loop. Fix this by not calling INSTALL_DATA on

723 Reported by Herold Heiko.
725 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

769 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
771 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
773 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
774 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
776 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
778 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

790 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
792 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
793 non-interactive in all cases.
795 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
797 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
798 running mkinstalldirs.
800 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
802 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
803 outside the source tree.
804 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
805 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
807 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
809 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

820 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
822 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
824 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

836 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
838 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
841 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
843 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
844 accurately what --convert-links does.
846 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
848 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
849 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
851 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
853 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
854 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
855 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
857 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
859 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
860 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
862 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
864 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
865 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
866 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
867 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
868 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
869 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
871 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
873 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
874 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
875 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
876 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
877 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
878 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
879 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
880 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
882 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
884 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
885 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
886 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
889 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
891 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
892 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
893 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
895 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
897 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
898 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
899 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
900 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
902 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
904 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
905 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
906 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
907 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
908 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
910 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
911 automatic manpage generation.
913 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
915 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
916 correction to the description of --continue.
918 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
920 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
921 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
923 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
925 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
927 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
928 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
929 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
930 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
931 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
932 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
934 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
935 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
936 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
938 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
939 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
940 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
941 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
943 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
945 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
946 but in the current build dir.
948 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
950 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
953 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
955 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
956 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
957 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
959 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
961 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
963 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
965 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
967 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
969 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
970 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
973 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
975 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
977 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
979 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
981 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
983 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
985 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
987 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
989 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
991 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
992 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
993 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
995 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
997 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
999 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1001 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
1002 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
1003 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
1004 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
1005 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
1007 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1009 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
1011 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1013 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
1014 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
1016 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1018 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
1019 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
1021 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
1022 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
1024 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
1025 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
1027 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1029 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1030 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1031 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1032 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1033 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1034 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1035 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1037 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1039 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1040 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1042 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1044 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1045 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1047 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1049 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1051 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1053 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1054 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1056 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1057 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1058 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1060 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1061 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1062 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1063 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1065 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1067 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1068 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1069 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1070 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1071 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1073 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1075 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1076 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1077 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1080 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1082 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1083 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1084 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1085 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1086 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1087 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1088 ignore_tags commands.
1090 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1092 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1100 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1101 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1103 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1105 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1106 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1107 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1109 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1111 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1112 --backup-converted option.

1184 only if the files actually differ.
1186 1998-01-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
