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

590 2003-11-09 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@xemacs.org>

715 Reported by Herold Heiko.
717 2001-12-11 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

761 Reported by Wojtek Kotwica.
763 2001-11-17 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
765 * Makefile.in (install.info): If info files from the build
766 directory are not available, use the ones from $(srcdir).
768 2001-11-16 Peter Farmer <peter.farmer@zveno.com>
770 * Makefile.in: Use $? instead of $<. Use TEXI2POD more
773 2001-06-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

782 2001-06-15 Adam J. Richter <adam@yggdrasil.com>
784 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Make `make install'
785 non-interactive in all cases.
787 2001-06-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
789 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): Take $(DESTDIR) into account when
790 running mkinstalldirs.
792 2001-06-05 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
794 * Makefile.in (wget.info): Added -I$(srcdir) to support compilation
795 outside the source tree.
796 (install.man): Replaced $(srcdir)$(MAN) with $(MAN). The former
797 did not work when compiling outside the source tree.
799 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

814 * wget.texi (Contributors): Updated list of contributors.
816 2001-05-26 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>

830 * Makefile.in: Provide and use DESTDIR according to the Coding
833 2001-04-01 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
835 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Document more
836 accurately what --convert-links does.
838 2001-03-27 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
840 * Makefile.in: Moved top_builddir out of "User configuration
841 section" of top Makefile and analogous spot in this one.
843 2001-03-26 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
845 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Explained that you need
846 to use -r -l1 -p to get the two levels of requisites for a
847 <FRAMESET> page. Also made a few other wording improvements.
849 2001-03-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
851 * Makefile.in: Using '^' in the sed call caused a weird failure on
852 Solaris 2.6. Changed it to a ','. Defined top_builddir.
854 2001-02-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
856 * wget.texi: Corrections, clarifications, and English fixes to
857 time-stamping documentation. Also moved -nr from "Recursive
858 Retrieval Options" to "FTP Options" and gave it a @cindex entry.
859 Alphabetized FTP options by long option name. Mentioned that
860 .listing symlinked to /etc/passwd is not a security hole, but that
861 other files could be, so root shouldn't run wget in user dirs.
863 2001-02-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
865 * Makefile.in: Make wget man page and install it if we have
866 pod2man. Added some missing '$(srcdir)/'s. Added missing
867 dependencies on install targets (allowing you to just do `make
868 install' rather than forcing you to do `make && make install').
869 Also, Makefile rules should always use output file parameters if
870 available rather than redirecting stdout with '>', or you falsely
871 satisfy dependencies if the tool you're running is missing or
872 fails -- fixed call of texi2pod.pl that did this wrong.
874 * texi2pod.pl: Removed from CVS. Now automatically generated.
876 * texi2pod.pl.in: This new file is processed into texi2pod.pl,
877 getting the appropriate path to the Perl 5+ executable on this
878 system and becoming executable (CVS files, by contrast, don't
881 2001-02-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
883 * wget.texi (Download Options): Further improvement to --continue
884 documentation -- explain interaction with -r and -N, mention
885 usefulness for downloading new sections of appended-to files, etc.
887 2001-01-06 Jan Prikryl <prikryl@cg.tuwien.ac.at>
889 * wget.texi (Reporting Bugs): Deleted the setence about Cc-ing the
890 bug report to Wget mailing list as the bug report address is an
891 alias for the mailing ist anyway.
892 (Mailing List): Added URL for the alternate archive.
894 * wget.texi: Bunch of cosmetical changes.
896 * Makefile.in: Added targets for manpage generation using
897 texi2pod.pl and pod2man (comes with Perl5). As we cannot rely on
898 Perl5 being available on the system, manpage is not being built
899 automatically. Updated '*clean' targets to remove
900 'sample.wgetrc.munged...', 'wget.pod', and 'wget.man'.
902 * texi2pod.pl: New file copied from GCC distribution to facilitate
903 automatic manpage generation.
905 2001-01-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
907 * wget.texi (Download Options): Did a bunch of clarification and
908 correction to the description of --continue.
910 2001-01-06 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
912 * ChangeLog: The '[Not in 1.6 branch.]'s were decided not to be
913 the best way to go about my aim. Removed them in favor of:
915 * ChangeLog-branches/1.6_branch.ChangeLog: New file.
917 2000-12-31 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
919 * Makefile.in (distclean): sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion
920 needs to be included in the distribution or it'll get regenerated
921 due to the wget.info dependency, and then that file will get
922 regenerated, forcing people to have makeinfo installed
923 unnecessarily. We could use a kludge of a 0-length file in the
924 distro, but the file isn't that big and should compress very well.
926 * wget.texi: Changed "VERSION 1.5.3+dev" to "VERSION 1.7-dev" and
927 "UPDATED Feb 2000" to "UPDATED Dec 2000". Like the comment in the
928 file says, it'd be nice if these were handled automatically...
930 * ChangeLog: Since this flat file doesn't have multiple branches,
931 looking at the dates would make you think that things went into
932 1.6 that actually just went into the 1.7-dev branch. Added "[Not
933 in 1.6 branch.]" where appropriate to clarify.
935 2000-12-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
937 * Makefile.in (install.info): Info files are *not* in $(srcdir),
938 but in the current build dir.
940 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
942 * wget.texi (Robots): Document that we now support the meta tag
945 2000-11-16 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
947 * wget.texi: Use --- consistently.
948 Spell "Wget" with starting capital letter consistently.
949 Use ``...'' or @dfn{} instead of simple double quotes where
951 Use double space as separator between sentences consistently.
953 2000-11-15 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
955 * wget.texi (Robots): Rearrange text. Mention the meta tag.
957 2000-11-14 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
959 * wget.texi: Add GFDL; remove norobots specification.
961 * wget.texi (Sample Wgetrc): Remove warnings with lateish
962 makeinfo, mostly by changing xref{} to pxref{} when inside
965 2000-11-10 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
967 * wget.texi: cc.fer.hr -> srk.fer.hr.
969 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
971 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Use $(srcdir).
973 2000-11-05 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
975 * wget.texi: Updated names of contributors.
977 2000-10-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@arsdigita.com>
979 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Remove Netscape bullying.
981 2000-10-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
983 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Improved --delete-after docs.
984 (Download Options): Documented Rob Mayoff's new --bind-address option.
985 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented Rob Mayoff's new bind_address command.
987 2000-10-20 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
989 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Sugg. -E on 1-page download.
991 2000-10-19 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
993 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Documented my new -E / --html-extension.
994 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented my new html_extension option and
995 John Daily's "quad" values (which I renamed to "lockable
996 Boolean"). When I documented Damir Dzeko's --referer, I forgot to
997 add the .wgetrc equivalent; mentioned the "referrer" spelling issue.
999 2000-10-09 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1001 * wget.texi (FTP Options): --retr-symlinks wasn't documented properly.
1003 2000-08-30 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1005 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented new -p option.
1006 (Wgetrc Commands): Documented -p's equvialent, page_requisites.
1008 2000-08-23 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1010 * wget.texi (Download Options): Using -c on a file that's already fully
1011 downloaded results in an unchanged file and no second ".1" copy.
1013 * wget.texi (Logging and Input File Options): -B / --base was not
1014 documented as a separate item, and the .wgetrc version was misleading.
1016 * wget.texi (Wgetrc Commands): Changed all instances of
1017 ", the same as" to the more grammatical " -- the same as".
1019 2000-08-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1021 * wget.texi (Download Options): --no-clobber's documentation was
1022 severely lacking -- ameliorated the situation. Some of the
1023 previously-undocumented stuff (like the multiple-file-version
1024 numeric-suffixing) that's now mentioned for the first (and only)
1025 time in the -nc documentation should probably be mentioned
1026 elsewhere, but due to the way that wget.texi's hierarchy is laid
1027 out, I had a hard time finding anywhere else appropriate.
1029 2000-07-17 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1031 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Minor clarification in "download a
1032 single HTML page and all files necessary to display it" example.
1034 2000-05-22 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1036 * wget.texi (HTTP Options): Damir Dzeko <ddzeko@zesoi.fer.hr> did
1037 not document his new --referer option. Did so.
1039 2000-04-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1041 * sample.wgetrc: Realized I put a global setting in the local section.
1043 2000-04-13 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1045 * Makefile.in (sample.wgetrc.munged_for_texi_inclusion): Added
1046 build, dependencies, and distclean cleanup of this new file.
1048 * sample.wgetrc: Uncommented waitretry and set it to 10, clarified
1049 some wording, and re-wrapped some text to 71 columns due to
1050 @sample indentation in wget.texi.
1052 * wget.texi: Herold further expounded on the behavior of waitretry
1053 -- reworded docs again. Changed note saying _all_ lines in
1054 sample.wgetrc are commented out. Don't have an entire hand-
1055 cut-and-pasted copy of sample.wgetrc in this file -- use @include.
1057 2000-04-12 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1059 * Makefile.in (install.wgetrc): I completely missed the message
1060 that the new wgetrc wasn't being installed the first couple of
1061 times I ran `make install' after changing sample.wgetrc. Added
1062 blank lines around the message and a "<Hit RETURN to
1063 acknowledge>", and reworded the message to be a bit more clear.
1065 * sample.wgetrc: Added entries for backup_converted and waitretry.
1067 * wget.texi (Download Options and Wgetrc Commands): Herold Heiko
1068 <Heiko.Herold@previnet.it>'s new --waitretry option was
1069 undocumented until now. Reworded the suggested documentation he
1072 2000-03-10 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1074 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): In -K description,
1075 added a link to the discussion of interaction with -N.
1076 (Recursive Accept/Reject Options): Did some alphabetizing and added
1077 descriptions of new --follow-tags and -G / --ignore-tags options.
1078 (Following Links): Changed "the loads of" to "loads of".
1079 (Wgetrc Commands): Added descriptions of new follow_tags and
1080 ignore_tags commands.
1082 2000-03-02 Daniel S. Lewart <d-lewart@uiuc.edu>
1084 * wget.texi: Fix spelling and grammatical mistakes.

1092 * wget.texi (HTTP Time-Stamping Internals): Added a note about my
1093 newly-implemented interaction between -K and -N.
1095 2000-02-29 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1097 * wget.texi: Updated version to 1.5.3+dev, updated copyrights to
1098 2000, changed Hrvoje's old, invalid email address to his new one,
1099 and added " and the developers" to the .texi file's byline.
1101 2000-02-18 Dan Harkless <wget@harkless.org>
1103 * wget.texi (Recursive Retrieval Options): Documented my new -K /
1104 --backup-converted option.

1178 1998-01-23 Hrvoje Niksic <hniksic@srce.hr>
1180 * Makefile.in: Use `test ...' rather than `[ ... ]'.
1182 * wget.texi (Advanced Options): Explained suffices.
