fostering open source contributions says that it can discourage contribution by
conveying a false sense of "code ownership". Marking territory is negatively
affecting collaboration. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSFDm3UYkeE
* basically get rid of the scheme and apisrv mess - instead directly use the apiurl (== <protocol>://<host>) for everything
* some other minor cleanups here and there
* everyone who has a scheme or apisrv entry in his ~/.oscrc will get a deprecation warning but it's still working (at some point in the future we might remove these code paths)
* when writing a new ~/.oscrc store the apiurl in the conffile [fixes#478054]
- while being at it:
* fixed#478054 ("osc asks for build.o.o credential even if -A<somelocalapi> is always used")
* fixed#478052 ("osc backtrace on password entry (first startup)")
- osc diff -rX:Y: the default is to return an unified diff (to get a pretty diff use the --pretty option)
- osc rdiff: the default is to return a pretty diff (to get an unified diff use the --unified option)
- osc sr show --diff: the default is to return a pretty diff (to get an unified diff use the --unified option)
- core.get_binarylist(): add "verbose" switch that returns instances of class
File, instead of filenames
- improve core.get_binary_file():
* clean up tempfiles,
* set mtime,
* set file mask
Function signature is changed, because I'm not aware of any user than the example
script I once published on http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/osc_plugins
- do_addremove():
* if "do_package_tracking" is enabled scan the project dir for new/disappeared packages
* added --recursive option (If CWD is a project dir then scan all package dirs as well)
* minor pathname fix
- fixed argument handling in some methods: don't remove items from a list while looping over it
- fix streaming support in osc buildlog. do not download all of the
buildlog into memory before printing it (it could be very big), just
print as the log comes in
one, when a source link cannot be applied [bnc#409373]
- linkinfo elements can have an "error" attribute which indicates link
application failure, which means that updating the working copy is not
possible.
- Before this fix, osc could silently remove locally modified sources!
