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

710 Reported by Herold Heiko.
712 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

756 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
758 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
760 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
761 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
763 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
765 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
768 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

772 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
774 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing

777 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
779 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
780 non-interactive in all cases.
782 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
784 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
785 running mkinstalldirs.
787 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
789 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
790 outside the source tree.
791 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
792 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
794 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

807 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
809 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
811 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

825 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
828 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
830 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
831 accurately what --convert-links does.
833 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
835 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
836 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
838 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
840 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
841 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
842 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
844 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
846 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
847 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
849 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
851 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
852 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
853 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
854 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
855 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
856 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
858 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
860 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
861 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
862 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
863 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
864 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
865 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
866 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
867 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
869 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
871 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
872 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
873 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
876 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
878 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
879 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
880 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
882 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
884 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
885 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
886 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
887 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
889 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
891 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
892 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
893 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
894 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
895 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
897 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
898 automatic manpage generation.
900 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
902 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
903 correction to the description of --continue.
905 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
908 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
910 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
912 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
914 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
915 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
916 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
917 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
918 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
919 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
921 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
922 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
923 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
925 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
926 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
927 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
928 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
930 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
932 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
933 but in the current build dir.
935 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
937 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
940 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
942 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
943 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
944 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
946 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
948 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
950 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
952 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
954 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
956 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
957 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
960 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
962 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
964 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
966 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
968 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
970 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
972 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
974 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
976 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
978 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
979 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
980 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
982 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
984 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
986 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
988 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
989 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
990 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
991 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
992 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
994 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
996 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
998 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1000 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
1001 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
1003 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1005 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
1006 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
1008 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
1009 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
1011 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
1012 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
1014 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1016 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1017 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1018 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1019 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1020 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1021 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1022 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1024 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1026 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1027 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1029 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1031 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1032 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1034 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1036 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1038 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1040 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1041 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1043 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1044 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1045 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1047 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1048 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1049 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1050 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1052 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1054 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1055 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1056 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1057 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1058 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1060 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1062 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1063 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1064 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1067 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1069 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1070 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1071 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1072 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1073 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1074 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1075 ignore_tags commands.
1077 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1079 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1083 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
1085 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1087 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1088 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1090 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1092 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1093 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1094 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1096 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1098 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1099 --backup-converted option.
1100 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
1102 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>

1171 only if the files actually differ.
1173 1998-01-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
1175 * Makefile.in: Use `test ...' rather than `[ ... ]'.
1177 * wget.texi (Advanced Options): Explained suffices.
