From: Eric Wong <e@yhbt.net> To: meta@public-inbox.org Subject: [ANNOUNCE] public-inbox 1.4.0 Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2020 08:48:59 +0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <20200417084800.public-inbox-1.4.0-rele@sed> (raw) This release focuses on reproducibility improvements and bugfixes for corner-cases. Busy instances of PublicInbox::WWW may also notice memory usage reductions. For rare messages lacking Date and/or Received headers, mirrors now fall back to using the git author/commit times to reindex them. This ensures search and filtering queries behave identically on mirrors as they do on the original machine. "altid" SQLite dumps are now accessible to all over the WWW interface via `POST /$INBOX/$ALTID.sql.gz'. Busy instances of PublicInbox::WWW (whether via public-inbox-httpd or another PSGI server) may notice significant memory usage reductions from the single message "permalink" lifetime optimization. There also ongoing work to improve memory lifetime management to reduce the potential for memory fragmentation in daemons. * general changes: - `include.*' directives in the public-inbox-config(5) file are now honored as documented in git-config(1), thanks to Andreas Rottmann. - `+0000' is assumed for dates missing TZ offsets; thanks to Leah Neukirchen for spotting this regression from v1.2.0. - `<' and `>' characters are dropped to avoid errors in git in addresses for git, thanks again to Leah for noticing this long-standing bug. * PublicInbox::WWW: - memory reductions for message display and rendering - code preload improved to reduce memory fragmentation - remove redundant "a=" parameter in links to solver - escape '&' in hrefs properly - fix optional address obfuscation in search results - `POST /$INBOX/$ALTID.sql.gz' endpoint to retrieve SQLite dumps * public-inbox-httpd + public-inbox-nntpd: - fix SIGUSR2 upgrade in worker-less instances (-W0) * public-inbox-httpd: - fix RFC 7230 conformance when Content-Length and "chunked" are both specified * public-inbox-index: - reproduce original date and time stamps in mirrors for messages lacking Date: and/or Received: headers - new `--compact' (or `-c') switch to perform the equivalent of public-inbox-compact(1) after indexing each inbox * documentation: - add Documentation/technical/data_structures.txt for new hackers * scripts/import_vger_from_mbox: (not really a production-level script) - fix ">From" unescaping thanks to a bug report from Kyle Meyer Thanks to Andreas Rottmann, Leah Neukirchen and Kyle Meyer for their contributions to this release.
