+News for ikiwiki 3.20100427:
+
+ This version of ikiwiki has a lot of changes that you need to know about.
+ Now you can include customised versions of templates in the source
+ of your wiki. (For example, templates/page.tmpl.) When these templates
+ are changed, ikiwiki will automatically rebuild pages that use them.
+ Allowing untrusted users to upload attachments with the ".tmpl"
+ extension is not recommended, as that allows anyone to change
+ a wiki's templates.
+ The --getctime switch is renamed to --gettimes, and it also gets the
+ file modification time. And it's a lot faster (when using git). But
+ the really important change is, you don't have to remember to use this
+ switch. Now ikiwiki will do it when it needs to.
+ At last, the "tagged()" pagespec only matches tags, not regular wikilinks.
+ If your wiki accidentially relied on the old, buggy behavior, you might
+ need to change its pagespecs to use "link()".
+ Many of your wishes have been answered: Now tag pages can automatically be
+ created when new tags are used. This feature is enabled by default if you
+ have configured a tagbase. It can be turned on or off using the
+ tag\_autocreate setting.
+ These changes may also affect some users:
+ * The title\_natural sort method (as used by the inline directive, etc)
+ has been moved to the new sortnaturally plugin, which is not enabled
+ by default since it requires the Sort::Naturally perl module.
+ * TMPL\_INCLUDE is no longer supported in any template used by ikiwiki.
+ It used to be allowed in certian templates, but not in others.
+ * The add\_templates option has been removed from the underlay plugin.
+ If you used this option, you can instead use templates/ subdirectories
+ inside underlay directories added by the add\_underlays option.
+ Due to the above and other changes, all wikis need to be rebuilt on
+ upgrade to this version. If you listed your wiki in /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist
+ this will be done automatically when the Debian package is upgraded. Or
+ use ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to force a rebuild.

+ * [ Joey Hess ]
+ * tag: Automatic creation of tag pages can now be enabled using
+ the tag\_autocreate setting. (David Riebenbauer)
+ * Customised templates can now be included in the source of wikis
+ (and also in underlays), and dependencies on them are tracked.
+ * TMPL\_INCLUDE is no longer supported in any template.
+ * underlay: Removed the add\_templates option.
+ * Add template\_depends function to plugin API.
+ * bzr: Fix bzr log parsing to work with bzr 2.0. (liw)
+ * comments: Fix missing entity encoding in title.
+ * txt: Add a special case for robots.txt.
+ * [ Simon McVittie ]
+ * Add support for link types, and make the the tagged() pagespec only
+ match tags, not regular links (a bugfix).
+ * Rebuild wikis on upgrade to this version to get tag link types recorded
+ correctly.
+ * Revamp sorting system; allow new sort methods to be added by plugins,
+ and add a "sortspec" syntax that can combine, reverse, etc sort methods.
+ * meta: Add `meta(author)`, `meta(title)` etc sortspecs to allow sorting
+ by metadata.
+ * meta: Add optional sortas parameter to author and title meta directives.
+ This can be used to get names sorted by last name without displaying
+ them last name first.
+ * sortnaturally: New plugin; the title\_natural sort method has moved here.
+ * meta: store fields consistently unescaped, and escape on use.
+ (A wiki rebuild is also needed due to this change.)
+ * [ Joey Hess ]
+ * Update dependency for git-core to git transition.
+ * po: Check that translated underlay directories exist before using them
+ for master language.
+ * po: Configuring the same language as master and slave confuses processing;
+ so filter out such a misconfiguration.
+ * calendar: Add archive\_pagespec, which is used by ikiwiki-calendar to
+ specify which pages to include on the calendar archive pages.
+ (The pagespec can still also be specified on the ikiwiki-calendar command
+ line.)
+ * pagestats: Class parameter can be used to override default class for
+ custom styling.
+ * pagestats: Use style=list to get a list of tags, scaled by use like
+ in a tag cloud. This is useful to put in a sidebar.
+ * Rework example blog front page.
+ * CSS and templates for sidebar changed to use a class, not an id.
+ * sidebar: Now a sidebar directive can be used to override the sidebar
+ shown on a page.
+ * Enable calendar and sidebar in auto-blog.setup.
+ * sidebar: Add global\_sidebars setting.
+ * conditional: Fix bug that forced "all" mode off by default.
+ * calendarmonth.tmpl: The month calendar is now put in a sidebar.
+ * calendar: Improved display of arrows.
+ * Rename --getctime to --gettime. (The old name still works for
+ backwards compatibility.)
+ * --gettime now also looks up last modification time.
+ * Automatically run --gettime the first time ikiwiki is run on
+ a given srcdir. (Use --no-gettime to disable.)
+ * Add rcs\_getmtime to plugin API; currently only implemented
+ for git and svn.
+ * Optimise --gettime for git, so it's appropriately screamingly
+ fast. (This could be done for most other backends too.)
+ * However, --gettime for git no longer follows renames. That would
+ be slow, and whether a renamed wiki page is the same page is really
+ an iffy thing.
+ * Use above to fix up timestamps on docwiki, as well as ensure that
+ timestamps on basewiki files shipped in the deb are sane.
+ * autoindex: Switch to using %wikistate instead of abusing
+ $pagestate{index}.
+ * bzr: Support rcs\_getmtime, and fix rcs\_getctime implementation
+ (Jelmer Vernooij)
+ * Quite a lot of new optimisations, and one major fix to a recent
+ performance regression.
+ * Moved javascript files under the ikiwiki/ directory, to avoid cluttering
+ the top of the web root. This is another things that requires a wiki
+ rebuild on upgrade to this version.
+ * Fix removal of rendered files in rebuild mode.
+ * Add page() PageSpec, which is like glob() but matches only pages,
+ not other files."""]] \ No newline at end of file
