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

729 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
731 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
733 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
734 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
736 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
738 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more

752 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
753 non-interactive in all cases.
755 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
757 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
758 running mkinstalldirs.
760 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
762 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
763 outside the source tree.
764 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
765 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
767 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
769 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

796 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
798 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
801 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
803 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
804 accurately what --convert-links does.
806 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
808 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
809 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
811 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
813 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
814 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
815 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
817 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
819 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
820 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
822 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
824 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
825 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
826 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
827 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
828 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
829 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
831 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
833 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
834 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
835 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
836 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
837 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
838 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
839 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
840 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
842 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
844 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
845 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
846 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
849 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
851 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
852 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
853 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
855 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
857 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
858 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
859 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
860 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
862 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
864 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
865 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
866 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
867 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
868 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
870 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
871 automatic manpage generation.
873 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
875 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
876 correction to the description of --continue.
878 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
880 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
881 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
883 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
885 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
887 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
888 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
889 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
890 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
891 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
892 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
894 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
895 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
896 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
898 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
899 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
900 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
901 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
903 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
905 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
906 but in the current build dir.
908 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
910 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
913 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
915 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
916 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
917 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
919 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
921 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
923 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
925 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
927 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
929 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
930 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
933 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
935 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
937 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
939 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
941 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
943 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
945 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
947 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
949 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
951 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
952 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
953 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
955 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
957 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
959 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
961 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
962 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
963 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
964 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
965 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
967 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
969 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
971 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
973 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
974 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
976 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
978 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
979 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
981 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
982 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
984 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
985 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
987 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
989 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
990 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
991 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
992 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
993 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
994 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
995 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
997 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
999 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1000 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1002 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1004 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1005 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1007 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1009 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1011 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1013 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1014 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1016 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1017 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1018 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1020 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1021 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1022 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1023 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1025 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1027 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1028 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1029 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1030 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1031 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1033 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1035 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1036 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1037 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1040 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1042 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1043 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1044 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1045 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1046 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1047 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1048 ignore_tags commands.
1050 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1052 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1060 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1061 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1063 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1065 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1066 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1067 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1069 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1071 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1072 --backup-converted option.
