unreleased

Dependencies

This release ends support for ruby < 2.3.0. If you're on 2.2.x or earlier, we strongly suggest that you find the time to upgrade, because official support for Ruby 2.2 ended on 2018-03-31.

Enhancements

• MiniPortile.execute now takes an optional :env hash, which is merged into the environment variables for the subprocess. Likely this is only useful for specialized use cases. [#99]

2.5.0 / 2020-02-24

Enhancements

• When verifying GPG signatures, remove all imported pubkeys from keyring [#90] (Thanks, @hanazuki!)

Enhancements

• Skip progress report when Content-Length is unavailable. [#85] (Thanks, @eagletmt!)

2.3.0 / 2017-09-13

Enhancements

• Verify checksums of files at extraction time (in addition to at download time). (#56)
• Clarify error message if a tar command can't be found. (#81)

2.2.0 / 2017-06-04

Enhancements

• Remove MD5 hashing of configure options, not avialbale in FIPS mode. (#78)
• Add experimental support for cmake-based projects.
• Retry on HTTP failures during downloads. [#63] (Thanks, @jtarchie and @jvshahid!)
• Support Ruby 2.4 frozen string literals.
• Support applying patches for users with misconfigured git worktree. [#69]

Bugfixes

• Raise exception on unsupported URI protocols
• Ignore git whitespace config when patching (Thanks, @e2!) (#67)

2.0.0 / 2015-11-30

Many thanks to @larskanis, @knu, and @kirikak2, who all contributed code, ideas, or both to this release.

Note that the 0.7.0.rc* series was not released as 0.7.0 final, and instead became 2.0.0 due to backwards-incompatible behavioral changes which can appear because rubygems doesn't enforce loading the declared dependency version at installation-time (only run-time).

If you use MiniPortile in an extconf.rb file, please make sure you're setting a gem version constraint before require "mini_portile2" .

Note also that 2.0.0 doesn't include the backwards-compatible "escaped string" behavior from 0.7.0.rc3.

Enhancements

• In patch task, use git(1) or patch(1), whichever is available.
• Append outputs to patch.log instead of clobbering it for every patch command.
• Take configure_options literally without running a subshell. This changes allows for embedded spaces in a path, among other things. Please unescape configure_options where you have been doing it yourself.
• Print last 20 lines of the given log file, for convenience.
• Allow SHA1, SHA256 and MD5 hash verification of downloads

Bugfixes

• Fix issue when proxy username/password use escaped characters.
• Fix use of https and ftp proxy.

0.7.0.rc4 / 2015-08-24

• Updated tests for Windows. No functional change. Final release candidate?

0.7.0.rc3 / 2015-08-24

• Restore backwards-compatible behavior with respect to escaped strings.

0.7.0.rc2 / 2015-08-24

• Add Ruby 2.0.0 and Ruby 2.1.x to Appveyor suite
