51 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
53 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
55 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
56 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
58 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
60 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
63 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
65 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
67 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
69 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
70 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
72 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
74 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
75 non-interactive in all cases.
77 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
79 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
80 running mkinstalldirs.
82 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
84 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
85 outside the source tree.
86 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
87 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
89 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
91 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.

100 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
102 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
104 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
106 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
108 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.

118 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
120 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
123 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
125 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
126 accurately what --convert-links does.
128 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
130 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
131 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
133 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
135 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
136 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
137 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
139 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
141 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
142 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
144 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
146 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
147 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
148 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
149 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
150 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
151 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
153 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
155 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
156 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
157 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
158 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
159 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
160 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
161 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
162 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
164 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
166 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
167 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
168 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
171 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
173 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
174 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
175 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
177 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
179 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
180 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
181 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
182 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
184 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
186 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
187 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
188 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
189 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
190 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
192 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
193 automatic manpage generation.
195 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
197 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
198 correction to the description of --continue.
200 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
202 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
203 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
205 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
207 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
209 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
210 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
211 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
212 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
213 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
214 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
216 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
217 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
218 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
220 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
221 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
222 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
223 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
225 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
227 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
228 but in the current build dir.
230 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
232 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
235 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
237 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
238 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
239 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
241 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
243 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
245 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
247 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
249 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
251 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
252 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
255 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
257 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
259 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
261 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
263 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
265 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
267 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
269 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
271 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
273 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
274 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
275 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
277 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
279 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
281 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
283 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
284 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
285 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
286 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
287 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
289 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
291 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
293 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
295 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
296 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
298 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
300 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
301 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
303 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
304 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
306 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
307 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
309 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
311 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
312 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
313 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
314 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
315 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
316 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
317 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
319 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
321 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
322 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
324 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
326 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
327 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
329 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
331 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
333 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
335 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
336 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
338 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
339 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
340 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
342 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
343 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
344 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
345 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
347 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
349 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
350 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
351 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
352 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
353 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
355 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
357 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
358 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
359 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
362 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
364 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
365 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
366 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
367 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
368 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
369 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
370 ignore_tags commands.
372 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
374 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
376 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
378 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
380 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
382 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
383 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
385 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
387 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
388 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
389 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
391 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
393 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
394 --backup-converted option.
395 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
397 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
