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

621 (Wgetrc Commands): There is no -f option. It's --follow-ftp.
622 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
624 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
626 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
627 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
629 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
631 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
634 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
636 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
638 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
640 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
641 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
643 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
645 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
646 non-interactive in all cases.
648 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
650 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
651 running mkinstalldirs.
653 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
655 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
656 outside the source tree.
657 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
658 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
660 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
662 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
664 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
666 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
668 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
670 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
671 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
673 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
675 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
677 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
679 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
681 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
683 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
685 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
687 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
689 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
691 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
694 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
696 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
697 accurately what --convert-links does.
699 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
701 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
702 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
704 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
706 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
707 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
708 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
710 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
712 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
713 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
715 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
717 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
718 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
719 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
720 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
721 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
722 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
724 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
726 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
727 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
728 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
729 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
730 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
731 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
732 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
733 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
735 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
737 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
738 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
739 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
742 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
744 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
745 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
746 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
748 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
750 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
751 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
752 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
753 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
755 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
757 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
758 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
759 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
760 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
761 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
763 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
764 automatic manpage generation.
766 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
768 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
769 correction to the description of --continue.
771 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
773 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
774 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
776 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
778 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
780 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
781 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
782 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
783 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
784 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
785 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
787 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
788 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
789 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
791 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
792 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
793 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
794 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
796 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
798 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
799 but in the current build dir.
801 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
803 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
806 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
808 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
809 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
810 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
812 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
814 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
816 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
818 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
820 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
822 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
823 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
826 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
828 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
830 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
832 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
834 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
836 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
838 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
840 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
842 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
844 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
845 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
846 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
848 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
850 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
852 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
854 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
855 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
856 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
857 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
858 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
860 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
862 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
864 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
866 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
867 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
869 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
871 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
872 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
874 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
875 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
877 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
878 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
880 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
882 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
883 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
884 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
885 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
886 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
887 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
888 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
890 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
892 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
893 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
895 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
897 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
898 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
900 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
902 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
904 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
906 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
907 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
909 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
910 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
911 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
913 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
914 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
915 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
916 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
918 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
920 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
921 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
922 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
923 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
924 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
926 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
928 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
929 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
930 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
933 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
935 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
936 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
937 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
938 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
939 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
940 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
941 ignore_tags commands.
943 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
945 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
947 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
949 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
951 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
953 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
954 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
956 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
958 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
959 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
960 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
962 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
964 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
965 --backup-converted option.
966 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
968 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
