This eliminates the last Makefile in our code base.
Also change the section style within ReleaseNotes from asciidoc style to
asciidoctor style.
Also I feel that put images/link.png under ReleaseNotes and deal with
all the resource packing is too stupid, so I used the unicode emoji
instead of the picture ("🔗"). If this is too crazy, we can also use "#"
instead :) This also affects documentation rendering.
Other side effects:
1. The css of release notes switched from default asciidoc css into
default asciidoctor css.
2. The section anchors for ReleaseNotes/index.html changed from "2_13"
to "s2_13", because asciidoctorj is unhappy with anchors without
letters.

|
|
|

https://www.gerritcodereview.com/download/gerrit-2.11.1.war]
|
|
|
|
Gerrit 2.11.1 includes the bug fixes done with
|
|
link:ReleaseNotes-2.10.4.html[Gerrit 2.10.4] and
|
|
link:ReleaseNotes-2.10.5.html[Gerrit 2.10.5]. These bug fixes are *not* listed
|
|
in these release notes.
|
|
|
|
There are no schema changes from link:ReleaseNotes-2.11.html[2.11].

|
|
|
|
== New Features
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=321[Issue 321]:
|
|
Use in-memory Lucene index for a better reviewer suggestion.
|
|
+
|
|
Instead of a linear full text search through a list of accounts, use an
|
|
in-memory Lucene index. The index is periodically refreshed. The refresh period
|
|
is configurable via the
|
|
link:https://gerrit-documentation.storage.googleapis.com/Documentation/2.11.1/config-gerrit.html#suggest.fullTextSearchRefresh[
|
|
suggest.fullTextSearchRefresh] parameter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Bug Fixes
|
|
|
|
=== Performance
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3363[Issue 3363]:
|
|
Fix performance degrade in background mergeability checks.
|
|
+
|
|
When neither `index.batchThreads` nor `changeMerge.threadPoolSize` was defined,
|
|
the background mergeability check fell back to using an interactive executor.
|
|
+
|
|
This led to a severe performance degradation during git push operations because
|
|
the `ref-update` listener was reindexing all open changes on the target branch
|
|
interactively. The degradation increased linearly with number of open changes on
|
|
the target branch.
|
|
+
|
|
Now, instead of indexing interactively, it falls back to a batch thread pool
|
|
with the number of available logical CPUs.
|
|
|
|
* Reduce unnecessary database access when querying changes.
|
|
+
|
|
Searching for changes was retrieving more information than necessary from the
|
|
database. This has been optimized to reduce database access and make better use
|
|
of the secondary index.
|
|
|
|
* Remove unnecessary REST API call when opening the 'Patch Sets' drop down.
|
|
+
|
|
The change edit information was being loaded twice.
|
|
|
|
=== Index
|
|
|
|
* Fix `PatchLineCommentsUtil.draftByChangeAuthor`.
|
|
+
|
|
There is not a native index for this, and the ReviewDb case was not properly
|
|
filtering a result by change.
|
|
|
|
* Don't show stack trace when failing to build BloomFilter during reindex.
|
|
|
|
=== Permissions
|
|
|
|
* Require 'View Plugins' capability to list plugins through SSH.
|
|
+
|
|
The 'View Plugins' capability was required to list plugins through the REST API,
|
|
but not through SSH.
|
|
|
|
* Fix project creation with plugin config if user is not project owner.
|
|
+
|
|
On project creation it is possible to specify plugin configuration values that
|
|
should be stored in the `project.config` file. This failed if the calling user
|
|
was not becoming owner of the created project, because only project owners can
|
|
edit the `project.config` file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== Change Screen / Diff / Inline Edit
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3191[Issue 3191]:
|
|
Always show 'Not Current' as state when looking at old patch set.
|
|
+
|
|
For merged changes it was confusing for users to see the status as 'Merged' when
|
|
they look at an old patch set.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3337[Issue 3337]:
|
|
Reenable 'Revert' button when revert is cancelled.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3378[Issue 3378]:
|
|
Improve the cursor style in side-by-side diff and inline editor.
|
|
+
|
|
The cursor style is changed from an underscore to a solid vertical bar.
|
|
+
|
|
In the side-by-side diff, the cursor is placed on the first column of the diff,
|
|
rather than at the end.
|
|
|
|
=== Web Container
|
|
|
|
* Fix `gc_log` when running in a web container.
|
|
+
|
|
All logs supposed to be in the `gc_log` file were ending up in the main log
|
|
instead when deploying Gerrit in a web container.
|
|
|
|
* Fix binding of SecureStore modules.
|
|
+
|
|
The SecureStore modules were not correctly added when Gerrit was deployed in a
|
|
web container with the site path configured using the `gerrit.site_path`
|
|
property.
|
|
|
|
=== Plugins
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3310[Issue 3310]:
|
|
Fix disabling plugins when Gerrit is running on Windows.
|
|
+
|
|
When running Gerrit on Windows it was not possible to disable a plugin due to an
|
|
error renaming the plugin's JAR file.
|
|
|
|
* Replication
|
|
|
|
** Fix creation of missing repositories.
|
|
+
|
|
Missing projects were not being created on the destination.
|
|
|
|
** Emit replication status events after initial full sync.
|
|
+
|
|
When `replicateOnStartup` is enabled, the plugin was not emitting the status
|
|
events after the initial sync.
|
|
|
|
=== Miscellaneous
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3328[Issue 3328]:
|
|
Allow to push a tag that points to a non-commit object.
|
|
+
|
|
When pushing a tag that points to a non-commit object, like
|
|
link:https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tag/?id=v2.6.11[
|
|
`v2.6.11` on linux-stable] which points to a tree, or
|
|
link:https://git.eclipse.org/c/jgit/jgit.git/tag/?id=spearce-gpg-pub[
|
|
`spearce-gpg-pub` on jgit] which points to a blob, Gerrit rejected the push with
|
|
the error message 'missing object(s)'.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3323[Issue 3323]:
|
|
Fix internal server error when cloning from a slave while hiding some refs.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=3342[Issue 3342]:
|
|
Log `IOException` on failure to update project configuration.
|
|
+
|
|
Without logging these exceptions it's hard to guess why the update of the
|
|
project configuration is failing.
|
|
|
|
* Remove temporary GitWeb config on Gerrit exit.
|
|
+
|
|
A temporary directory was being created but not removed.
|
|
|
|
* link:http://code.google.com/p/gerrit/issues/detail?id=2791[Issue 2791]:
|
|
Fix email validation for new TLDs such as `.systems`.
|
|
|
|
* Assume change kind is 'rework' if `LargeObjectException` occurs.
|
|
|
|
