Wit v0.14.0

Wit v0.14.0

Features

#256 Wit to read dependency information from git submodules.
If your repository does not have a wit-manifest.json, wit can now infer the dependencies by scanning the available git submodules.
If you have a repository that you are manually syncing wit-manifest.json and git submodule entries, and they are always a perfect 1:1 mapping, this enables consolidation by allowing a removal of the wit-manifest.json file from the repository.

Bugfixes

#258 Give readable error message when using relative paths with WIT_WORKSPACE_REFERENCE
#254 Give readable error message when an expected revision is missing from a repository
#253 Give readable error message when failing to clone a repository
#257 Submodule test cleanups

#250 New one-liner github action implementation for init

Wit v0.13.1

This is a release that mostly only fixes bugs in the GitHub Action. No functional change to the Wit program.

Bugfixes

• Add bash back to the GitHub Action, which was inadvertently removed when switching to an Alpine-based Docker image.
  • PR: #236
  • PR: #237
• Add UTF-8 environment variables so that Git repos with UTF-8 branch names do not break the GitHub Action.
  • PR: #246

Wit v0.13.0

Compatibility

• This version removes wit fetch-scala, which is now implemented by https://github.com/sifive/api-scala-sifive as of v0.2.0.
  If you relied on that feature you'll need to update your api-scala-sifive or find another solution.
  • PRs: #217, sifive/api-scala-sifive#27

• wit foreach lets you run a command in each repository
  • PR: #213
• WIT_WORKSPACE_REFERENCE can speed up your wit init by pointing at a cache
  • PR: #218
• Parallel clone speeds up wit init by batching clones from the same wit-manifest.json
  • PR: #222
• wit restore creates a fresh workspace by pointing at a previous wit-lock.json from another workspace
  • PR: #211
• Documentation for using wit inspect
  • PR: #207

Bugfixes

• Now errors out on duplicate dependency entries in wit-manifest.json
  • PR: #221

Development

• Smaller wit docker image
  • PR: #224
• Support for pip packages
  • PR: #220
• Support for github access tokens
  • PR: #208

Wit v0.12.0

Compatibility

Comments in wit-manifest.json
Previous versions of Wit will remove comments added to dependencies in wit-manifest.json
If you intend to use comments (--message in add-dep and update-dep), be sure to use wit >= v0.12.0 only.

Features

• Use binary distribution of Coursier to save startup time on fetch-scala command
• add-dep and update-dep can now take a message argument (-m/--message) which will place a comment in the wit-manifest.json file that annotates a particular dependency.
  The format is "//":"message contents",
• Better help text on some commands

Bugfixes

• If a package was added with an incorrect source path, an empty destination directory would be created which would have to be removed before retrying with the correct source path.
• Provide an error message if add-dep is run in the workspace root

Development

• Makefile targets for running tests
• Extra verbosity on spam level
• Provide a github actions definition so other projects can use Wit in their own github actions

Wit v0.11.1

Bugfixes

• Fix error reporting for ancestry errors

Performance Improvements

• Replace some deep copies with shallow copies
• Cache some git commands keyed by known commits

Commands without any cloning (eg. status or inspect) should be 25-40% faster.

Wit v0.11.0

Note: It is not guaranteed, but v0.11.0 should be compatible with workspaces from v0.6.0-v0.11.0

Special thanks to @aaronjanse for the vast majority of this work including refactoring the code base to make such features easier to implement

New Features

• No longer detached HEAD if the currently checked out commit is the same as the one to be checked out
• Support multiple remotes for the same package
• status now reports what packages will be checked out upon update
• More detailed error message for ancestry errors
• Warn when there are changes to wit-manifest.jsons that are being ignored due to not being committed
• Some errors are now non-fatal so status and inspect can be used to help debug

Bugfixes

• Fixed typo in error message for missing ivydependencies.json
• Fixed error message for things that are not a package in the workspace

Wit v0.10.1

Bugfixes

• Fix --version when using an installed version of wit (ie. not from the git repo)

Wit v0.10.0

Note: It is not guaranteed, but v0.10.0 should be compatible with workspaces from v0.6.0-v0.10.0

New Features

• inspect subcommand for viewing dependencies trees
  • try wit inspect --tree and wit inspect --dot
• Scala plugin now fetches and compiles the Scala compiler bridge
  • This fixes a race condition as well as ensures all Scala dependencies are fetched up front

Bugfixes

• Improved error message for illegal workspaces (NotAncestorError)
• Improved error message for updating a package with no actual change in commit

Wit v0.9.0

This project is now open-source under the Apache 2.0 License!

New Features

• Apache 2.0 License
• Add tutorial
• Add bash autocompletion
• Replace -d/--debug with -vv (other levels from -v to -vvvv)

Performance Improvements

Wit v0.8.1

Bugfixes

• wit --version will now strip the leading v from the version name
• wit --version on a git repo will now work when running wit from outside the repo.
