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

620 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.1.
622 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
624 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Use $(DESTDIR) when testing
625 whether $(WGETRC) exists.
627 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
629 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
630 non-interactive in all cases.
632 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
634 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
635 running mkinstalldirs.
637 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
639 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
640 outside the source tree.
641 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
642 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
644 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
646 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7.
648 2001-05-31 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
650 * wget.texi (Mailing List): Fix the mailing list address.
652 2001-05-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
654 * wget.texi (Copying): Clarify. Link to
655 "free-software-for-freedom.html".
657 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
659 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
661 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
663 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.7-pre1.
665 2001-04-28 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
667 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Update docs for `continue'.
669 2001-04-27 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
671 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Document cookie options.
673 2001-01-20 Karl Eichwalder <ke@suse.de>
675 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
678 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
680 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
681 accurately what --convert-links does.
683 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
685 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
686 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
688 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
690 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
691 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
692 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
694 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
696 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
697 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
699 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
701 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
702 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
703 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
704 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
705 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
706 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
708 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
710 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
711 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
712 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
713 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
714 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
715 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
716 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
717 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
719 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
721 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
722 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
723 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
726 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
728 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
729 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
730 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
732 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
734 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
735 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
736 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
737 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
739 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
741 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
742 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
743 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
744 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
745 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
747 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
748 automatic manpage generation.
750 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
752 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
753 correction to the description of --continue.
755 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
757 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
758 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
760 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
762 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
764 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
765 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
766 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
767 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
768 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
769 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
771 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
772 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
773 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
775 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
776 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
777 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
778 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
780 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
782 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
783 but in the current build dir.
785 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
787 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
790 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
792 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
793 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
794 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
796 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
798 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
800 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
802 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
804 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
806 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
807 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
810 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
812 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
814 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
816 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
818 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
820 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
822 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
824 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
826 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
828 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
829 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
830 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
832 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
834 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
836 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
838 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
839 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
840 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
841 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
842 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
844 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
846 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
848 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
850 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
851 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
853 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
855 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
856 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
858 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
859 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
861 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
862 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
864 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
866 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
867 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
868 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
869 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
870 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
871 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
872 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
874 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
876 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
877 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
879 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
881 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
882 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
884 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
886 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
888 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
890 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
891 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
893 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
894 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
895 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
897 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
898 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
899 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
900 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
902 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
904 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
905 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
906 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
907 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
908 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
910 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
912 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
913 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
914 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
917 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
919 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
920 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
921 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
922 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
923 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
924 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
925 ignore_tags commands.
927 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
929 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.
931 2000-03-02 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@iskon.hr>
933 * wget.texi (Contributors): Update contributors list.
935 2000-03-01 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
937 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
938 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
940 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
942 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
943 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
944 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
946 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
948 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
949 --backup-converted option.
950 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented backup_converted equivalent.
952 1998-09-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
