- Modified the meaning of 'rc.bulk'. The old meaning was: the largest number
of tasks that could be modified without confirmation. New meaning is: the
number of tasks that trigger bulk confirmation. Default was 2 (meaning that
2 tasks affected were not in need of confirmation), is now 3 (meaning 3 tasks
now trigger confirmation.
Despite the dog's dinner I made of the preceding statement, the configuration
variable is now easier to understand.
- Added 'taskd.server' and 'taskd.credentials' as supported configuration
variables.
- Added the 'taskd.server' values to the 'diagnostics' command output.
- Updated taskrc.5.in to mention the new variables.
- Updated task-tutorial.5.in with new syntax.
- Removed examples using implicit 'info' command.
- Updated examples for new syntax.
- Updated copyright.
- Note that the tutorial is still firmly a 1.9.3 tutorial, with no
new examples other than syntax changes.
- Updated the task-faq.5.in man page, various edits.
- Now confrms to new syntax.
- Includes new questions on multiple simultaneous installations.
- Corrected answer to the xterm title question.
- Added feature #682, which allows the configuration variable 'defaultheight'
to override the assumed height of 24 lines when 'detection' is not enabled
(thanks to Steve Rader).
- Addressed bug #804 by allowing rc.hyphenate to control whether hyphens are
inserted when long lines are broken. This may help prevent xterm from
mis-parsing URLs in task annotations, when wrapped (thanks to Yann Davin).
- Added unit tests.
- Added feature #559, which implements a new configuration variable,
rc.exit.on.missing.db, which causes taskwarrior to exit if the
rc.data.location is missing (thanks to Sander Marechal).
- Output from the query command is now optionally surrounded by [ ... ]
to make this a syntactically correct JSON document. This is off by
default.
- Updated documents.
- Support and documentation for rc.patterns, which enables/disables
support for /pattern/ command line arguments.
- Support and documentation for rc.expressions, which enables/disables
support for command line expressions.
- Now canonicalizes attribute names.
- Now canonicalizes modifier names.
- New colorization (temporary) that colors all Arguments::dump output
green when processed.
- New distinction between 'old' and 'new' style command lines. Old style
is "pro:A +foo pri.not:M" with implicit "and" operators. New style
includes operators but does not include "+foo" and "/foo/".
- Many tokens are converted directly to primitive types (int, number,
string) when no further processing is required.
- Restored CmdShow to functionality, and linearized the list of supported
configuration variables, for easier insertion.
- Modified arguments.t.cpp unit tests.
- Fixed bug #511, which caused display problem on Cygwin when colored output
used the full width of the terminal. The 'avoidlastcolumn' configuration
variable forces taskwarrior to never use the last column.
- Implemented CmdHelp object that replaces the report.cpp longUsage
function, and builds the output dynamically from other Command
objects. This is also why the help text right now is very short,
as only a few commands are migrated.
- Obsoleted longUsage function.
- Updated task.1 man page with 'execute' command details.
- Modified command.lua sample to include command usage.
- Removed "help" from old Context::dispatch, which means "help" is
the first migrated command.
- Added usage and description to all Cmd* objects.
- Implemented Command::usage and Command::description as base class
methods that simply return data that is specified by the derived
classes.
- Integrated new View in place of Table for all custom reports.
- Implemented legacy field mapping for columns and sort fields.
- Implemented rc.indent.report.
- Implemented rc.row.padding.
- Implemented rc.column.padding.
- Implemented rc.color.label.
- Modified default rc.indent.annotation from 1 to 2.
- Implemented urgency value caching.
- Implemented View truncation by line and row.
- Columns now know which report thy belong to, so they can use the
rc.report.<report>.dateformat override.
- Assorted bugs remain.
- Implemented 'description.default', 'description.count', and
'description.oneline'.
- New 'indent.annotation' for the 'description.default' field format.
- Added 'status' as a reportable column (thanks to Peter De Poorter
and Bryce Harrington).
- Closed features pertaining to the 'task ids ... | task ...' (thanks
to Bryce Harrington and Eric Fluger).
- Renamed all holiday files to include a locale, rather than just
a country code.
- Enhanced update-holidays.pl add-on script to support regions,
provide better error handling, error on missing Perl module,
warnings on unavailable data, and help text.
- Updated documentation accordingly.
