Sublime Package Control

Changelog

v1.6.3

• Bug Fixes
  • Fixed an error using wget <= 1.13 to download packages.

v1.6.2

• Enhancements
  • Added the ability to add a file of custom CA certs to the stack in a way that it will be automatically re-applied after Package Control upgrades. See the certs setting for details.
  • Added support for allowing package renames that consist of just changing the case of one or more letters
  • Added support for changing the user agent of the various downloaders via the new user_agent setting
• Bug Fixes
  • Added support for X-RateLimit-Limit and X-RateLimit-Remaining HTTP headers so that we don’t take down the GitHub API again if the default channel is unable to cache the package info. (Sorry GitHub!)
  • Fixed uncaught exception if resolving the IP of a hostname does not work when the debug setting it set to true
  • Added all of the bundle cert into to the default certs setting so that users can download from GitHub and BitBucket without connecting to the default channel.

v1.6.1

• Bug Fixes
  • Fixed IncompleteRead exceptions when download chunked content via the urllib2 downloader
  • Fixed proxy support to properly respect Proxy-Connection: close HTTP headers
  • Fixed a threading error with the install_missing functionality

v1.6.0

• Enhancements
  • Added full (custom) proxy authentication support for HTTPS connections
  • Added NTLM authentication for proxies on Windows
  • Proxy authentication information is now set via the new proxy_username and proxy_password settings.
  • If the https_proxy setting it set to false, it will not inherit from the http_proxy setting (thanks planardothum!)
  • The time of the last successful run is no longer stored in Packages/User/Package Control.sublime-settings, but rather in Packages/User/Package Control.last-run making it easier to ignore via git, hg, etc. (thanks schlamar!)
  • Packages are now ignored during install and upgrade to help prevents errors where Sublime Text tries to read a file as it is being extracted
  • Packages that include DLLs for Windows can now be upgraded. In-use DLLs will be detected and the user prompted to restart.
  • Package version numbers may now include non-numeric components, and semantic versioning (http://semver.org) is fully supported
  • JSON parsing messages are now printed to the console instead of being shown in an error popup
  • Added support for changes to the BitBucket API
  • Added support for changes to GitHub URLs
  • Added the debug setting to help track down HTTP connection issues
  • All of the downloaders will now try to use HTTP compression
  • All of the downloaders will now follow redirects
  • Added new install_missing setting to control if Package Control should try to install any packages that appear to be missing from the current machine. This defaults to true, and is really only useful if you want to prevent Package Control from connecting to the internet without explicitly asking it to.
  • Added lots of code comments as a first step towards making contributions by other developers easier
• Bug Fixes
  • Added support for the new preferences filename (thanks titoBouzout!)
  • If a package is missing from a machine, but not available for that platform, it is no longer considered an error (thanks schlamar!)
  • Updated CA certs
  • Fixed handling of install and upgrade messages that contain non-ASCII characters
  • Fixed a unicode error trying to load the CA cert bundle file on Windows when the install path to Sublime Text contains non-ASCII characters
  • Better handling for edge case HTTP errors (thanks tgecho!)
  • Fixed a number of errors related to non-ASCII error messages being created by the operating system (thanks quarnster!)
  • GitHub URLs will now automatically be trimmed of trailing .git suffixes
  • Badly formatted messages.json files will no longer break the install process

v1.5.0

• Changed default channel to https://sublime.wbond.net/repositories.json

• Added the ignore_vcs_packages setting to ignore all packages that are Git or Hg repositories
• Fixed a bug where a package with no description would break showing the list of available packages
• Added an explicit --ff --commit to Git update commands to handle the situation where users have their default set to --no-ff --no-commit
• Updated plugin to use OS PATH setting for finding Git, Hg, Curl and Wget
• Fixed a bug with removing a package while not connected to the internet
• Added files_to_include and files_to_include_binary to allow for explicit includes even when using files_to_exclude

• Added error hanlding for BadZipfile exceptions when installing a package that did not download properly
• Updated the user interface to be less confusing by renaming Add Repository Channel to Add Channel

v1.4.1

v1.4.0

• If Package Control is to be upgraded, it is upgraded by itself, and then all other upgrades are performed.
