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

619 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
620 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
622 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
624 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
625 non-interactive in all cases.
627 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
629 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
630 running mkinstalldirs.
632 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
634 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
635 outside the source tree.
636 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
637 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
639 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
641 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
643 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
645 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
647 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
649 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
650 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
652 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
654 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
656 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
658 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
660 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
662 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
664 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
666 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
668 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
670 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
673 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
675 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
676 accurately what --convert-links does.
678 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
680 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
681 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
683 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
685 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
686 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
687 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
689 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
691 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
692 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
694 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
696 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
697 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
698 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
699 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
700 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
701 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
703 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
705 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
706 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
707 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
708 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
709 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
710 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
711 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
712 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
714 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
716 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
717 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
718 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
721 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
723 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
724 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
725 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
727 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
729 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
730 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
731 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
732 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
734 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
736 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
737 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
738 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
739 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
740 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
742 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
743 automatic manpage generation.
745 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
747 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
748 correction to the description of --continue.
750 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
752 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
753 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
755 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
757 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
759 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
760 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
761 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
762 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
763 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
764 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
766 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
767 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
768 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
770 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
771 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
772 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
773 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
775 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
777 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
778 but in the current build dir.
780 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
782 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
785 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
787 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
788 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
789 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
791 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
793 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
795 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
797 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
799 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
801 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
802 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
805 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
807 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
809 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
811 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
813 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
815 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
817 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
819 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
821 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
823 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
824 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
825 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
827 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
829 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
831 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
833 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
834 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
835 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
836 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
837 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
839 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
841 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
843 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
845 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
846 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
848 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
850 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
851 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
853 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
854 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
856 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
857 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
859 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
861 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
862 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
863 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
864 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
865 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
866 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
867 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
869 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
871 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
872 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
874 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
876 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
877 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
879 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
881 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
883 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
885 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
886 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
888 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
889 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
890 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
892 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
893 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
894 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
895 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
897 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
899 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
900 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
901 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
902 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
903 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
905 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
907 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
908 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
909 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
912 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
914 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
915 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
916 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
917 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
918 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
919 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
920 ignore_tags commands.
922 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
924 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
926 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
928 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
930 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
932 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
933 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
935 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
937 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
938 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
939 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
941 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
943 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
944 --backup-converted option.
945 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
947 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
