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

620 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
622 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
623 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
625 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
627 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
630 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
632 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
634 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
636 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
637 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
639 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
641 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
642 non-interactive in all cases.
644 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
646 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
647 running mkinstalldirs.
649 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
651 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
652 outside the source tree.
653 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
654 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
656 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
658 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
660 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
662 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
664 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
666 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
667 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
669 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
671 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
673 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
675 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
677 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
679 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
681 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
683 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
685 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
687 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
690 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
692 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
693 accurately what --convert-links does.
695 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
697 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
698 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
700 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
702 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
703 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
704 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
706 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
708 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
709 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
711 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
713 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
714 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
715 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
716 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
717 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
718 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
720 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
722 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
723 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
724 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
725 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
726 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
727 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
728 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
729 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
731 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
733 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
734 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
735 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
738 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
740 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
741 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
742 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
744 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
746 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
747 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
748 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
749 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
751 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
753 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
754 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
755 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
756 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
757 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
759 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
760 automatic manpage generation.
762 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
764 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
765 correction to the description of --continue.
767 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
769 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
770 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
772 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
774 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
776 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
777 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
778 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
779 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
780 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
781 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
783 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
784 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
785 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
787 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
788 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
789 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
790 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
792 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
794 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
795 but in the current build dir.
797 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
799 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
802 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
804 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
805 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
806 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
808 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
810 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
812 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
814 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
816 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
818 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
819 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
822 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
824 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
826 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
828 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
830 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
832 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
834 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
836 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
838 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
840 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
841 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
842 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
844 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
846 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
848 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
850 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
851 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
852 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
853 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
854 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
856 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
858 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
860 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
862 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
863 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
865 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
867 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
868 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
870 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
871 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
873 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
874 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
876 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
878 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
879 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
880 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
881 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
882 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
883 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
884 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
886 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
888 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
889 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
891 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
893 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
894 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
896 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
898 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
900 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
902 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
903 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
905 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
906 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
907 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
909 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
910 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
911 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
912 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
914 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
916 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
917 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
918 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
919 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
920 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
922 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
924 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
925 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
926 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
929 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
931 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
932 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
933 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
934 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
935 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
936 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
937 ignore_tags commands.
939 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
941 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
943 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
945 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
947 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
949 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
950 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
952 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
954 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
955 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
956 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
958 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
960 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
961 --backup-converted option.
962 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
964 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
