+ :commit:`a6eaf9f1`
+* Allows building cleanly on Windows without cURL, :commit:`fb670f5712`
+
+
+Version 1.2.0
+-------------
+
+Authentication
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Fix use of OAuth with VHosts and URL rewriting.
+* OAuth secrets can now be stored in the users system database
+ as an alternative to key value pairs in the .ini configuration.
+ By default this is disabled (secrets are stored in the .ini)
+ but can be enabled via the .ini configuration key `use_users_db`
+ in the `couch_httpd_oauth` section.
+* Documents in the _users database are no longer publicly
+ readable.
+* Confidential information in the _replication database is no
+ longer publicly readable.
+* Password hashes are now calculated by CouchDB. Clients are no
+ longer required to do this manually.
+* Cookies used for authentication can be made persistent by enabling
+ the .ini configuration key `allow_persistent_cookies` in the
+ `couch_httpd_auth` section.
+
+Build System
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* cURL is no longer required to build CouchDB as it is only
+ used by the command line JS test runner. If cURL is available
+ when building CouchJS you can enable the HTTP bindings by
+ passing -H on the command line.
+* Temporarily made `make check` pass with R15B. A more thorough
+ fix is in the works (:issue:`1424`).
+* Fixed --with-js-include and --with-js-lib options.
+* Added --with-js-lib-name option.
+
+Futon
+^^^^^
+
+* The `Status` screen (active tasks) now displays two new task status
+ fields: `Started on` and `Updated on`.
+* Futon remembers view code every time it is saved, allowing to save an
+ edit that amounts to a revert.
+
+HTTP Interface
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Added a native JSON parser.
+* The _active_tasks API now offers more granular fields. Each
+ task type is now able to expose different properties.
+* Added built-in changes feed filter `_view`.
+* Fixes to the `_changes` feed heartbeat option which caused
+ heartbeats to be missed when used with a filter. This caused
+ timeouts of continuous pull replications with a filter.
+* Properly restart the SSL socket on configuration changes.
+
+Replicator
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* A new replicator implementation. It offers more performance and
+ configuration options.
+* Passing non-string values to query_params is now a 400 bad
+ request. This is to reduce the surprise that all parameters
+ are converted to strings internally.
+* Added optional field `since_seq` to replication objects/documents.
+ It allows to bootstrap a replication from a specific source sequence
+ number.
+* Simpler replication cancellation. In addition to the current method,
+ replications can now be canceled by specifying the replication ID
+ instead of the original replication object/document.
+
+Storage System
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Added optional database and view index file compression (using Google's
+ snappy or zlib's deflate). This feature is enabled by default, but it
+ can be disabled by adapting local.ini accordingly. The on-disk format
+ is upgraded on compaction and new DB/view creation to support this.
+* Several performance improvements, most notably regarding database writes
+ and view indexing.
+* Computation of the size of the latest MVCC snapshot data and all its
+ supporting metadata, both for database and view index files. This
+ information is exposed as the `data_size` attribute in the database and
+ view group information URIs.
+* The size of the buffers used for database and view compaction is now
+ configurable.
+* Added support for automatic database and view compaction. This feature
+ is disabled by default, but it can be enabled via the .ini configuration.
+* Performance improvements for the built-in changes feed filters `_doc_ids`
+ and `_design'.
+
+View Server
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Add CoffeeScript (http://coffeescript.org/) as a first class view server
+ language.
+* Fixed old index file descriptor leaks after a view cleanup.
+* The requested_path property keeps the pre-rewrite path even when no VHost
+ configuration is matched.
+* Fixed incorrect reduce query results when using pagination parameters.
+* Made icu_driver work with Erlang R15B and later.
+
+OAuth
+^^^^^
+
+* Updated bundled erlang_oauth library to the latest version.
+
+
+Version 1.1.1
+-------------
+
+* Support SpiderMonkey 1.8.5
+* Add configurable maximum to the number of bytes returned by _log.
+* Allow CommonJS modules to be an empty string.
+* Bump minimum Erlang version to R13B02.
+* Do not run deleted validate_doc_update functions.
+* ETags for views include current sequence if include_docs=true.
+* Fix bug where duplicates can appear in _changes feed.
+* Fix bug where update handlers break after conflict resolution.
+* Fix bug with _replicator where include "filter" could crash couch.
+* Fix crashes when compacting large views.
+* Fix file descriptor leak in _log
+* Fix missing revisions in _changes?style=all_docs.
+* Improve handling of compaction at max_dbs_open limit.
+* JSONP responses now send "text/javascript" for Content-Type.
+* Link to ICU 4.2 on Windows.
+* Permit forward slashes in path to update functions.
+* Reap couchjs processes that hit reduce_overflow error.
+* Status code can be specified in update handlers.
+* Support provides() in show functions.
+* _view_cleanup when ddoc has no views now removes all index files.
+* max_replication_retry_count now supports "infinity".
+* Fix replication crash when source database has a document with empty ID.
+* Fix deadlock when assigning couchjs processes to serve requests.
+* Fixes to the document multipart PUT API.
+* Fixes regarding file descriptor leaks for databases with views.

+ it's correct.
+* Make file deletions async to avoid pauses during compaction and db
+ deletion.
+* Fixed for wrong offset when writing headers and converting them to blocks,
+ only triggered when header is larger than 4k.
+* Preserve _revs_limit and instance_start_time after compaction.
+
+Test Suite
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Made the test suite overall more reliable.
+

+
+Futon
+^^^^^
+
+* Added a button for view compaction.
+* JSON strings are now displayed as-is in the document view, without the
+ escaping of new-lines and quotes. That dramatically improves readability of
+ multi-line strings.
+* Same goes for editing of JSON string values. When a change to a field value is
+ submitted, and the value is not valid JSON it is assumed to be a string. This
+ improves editing of multi-line strings a lot.
+* Hitting tab in textareas no longer moves focus to the next form field, but
+ simply inserts a tab character at the current caret position.
+* Fixed some font declarations.
+
+HTTP Interface
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

+
+Storage System
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Adds batching of multiple updating requests, to improve throughput with many
+ writers. Removed the now redundant couch_batch_save module.
+* Adds configurable compression of attachments.
+
+View Server
+^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Added optional 'raw' binary collation for faster view builds where Unicode
+ collation is not important.
+* Improved view index build time by reducing ICU collation callouts.
+* Improved view information objects.
+* Bug fix for partial updates during view builds.
+* Move query server to a design-doc based protocol.
+* Use json2.js for JSON serialization for compatiblity with native JSON.
+* Major refactoring of couchjs to lay the groundwork for disabling cURL
+ support. The new HTTP interaction acts like a synchronous XHR. Example usage
+ of the new system is in the JavaScript CLI test runner.
+
+
+
+

+* Moved _view to httpd_design_handlers.
+* Added ability to render documents as non-JSON content-types with _show and
+ _list functions, which are also httpd_design_handlers.
+
+Futon Utility Client
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Added pagination to the database listing page.
+* Implemented attachment uploading from the document page.
+* Added page that shows the current configuration, and allows modification of
+ option values.
+* Added a JSON "source view" for document display.
+* JSON data in view rows is now syntax highlighted.
+* Removed the use of an iframe for better integration with browser history and

+
+
+Version 0.8.1-incubating
+------------------------
+
+Build and System Integration
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* The `couchdb` script no longer uses `awk` for configuration checks as this
+ was causing portability problems.
+* Updated `sudo` example in `README` to use the `-i` option, this fixes
+ problems when invoking from a directory the `couchdb` user cannot access.
+
+Database Core
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Fix for replication problems where the write queues can get backed up if the
+ writes aren't happening fast enough to keep up with the reads. For a large
+ replication, this can exhaust memory and crash, or slow down the machine
+ dramatically. The fix keeps only one document in the write queue at a time.
+* Fix for databases sometimes incorrectly reporting that they contain 0
+ documents after compaction.
+* CouchDB now uses ibrowse instead of inets for its internal HTTP client
+ implementation. This means better replication stability.
+
+Futon
+^^^^^
+
+* The view selector dropdown should now work in Opera and Internet Explorer
+ even when it includes optgroups for design documents. (:issue:`81`)
+
+JavaScript View Server
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Sealing of documents has been disabled due to an incompatibility with
+ SpiderMonkey 1.9.
+* Improve error handling for undefined values emitted by map functions.
+ (:issue:`83`)
+
+HTTP Interface
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* Fix for chunked responses where chunks were always being split into multiple
+ TCP packets, which caused problems with the test suite under Safari, and in
+ some other cases.
+* Fix for an invalid JSON response body being returned for some kinds of
+ views. (:issue:`84`)
+* Fix for connections not getting closed after rejecting a chunked request.
+ (:issue:`55`)
+* CouchDB can now be bound to IPv6 addresses.
+* The HTTP `Server` header now contains the versions of CouchDB and Erlang.
+
+
+Version 0.8.0-incubating
+------------------------
+
+Build and System Integration
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* CouchDB can automatically respawn following a server crash.
+* Database server no longer refuses to start with a stale PID file.
+* System logrotate configuration provided.
+* Improved handling of ICU shared libraries.
+* The `couchdb` script now automatically enables SMP support in Erlang.
+* The `couchdb` and `couchjs` scripts have been improved for portability.
+* The build and system integration have been improved for portability.
+
+Database Core
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* The view engine has been completely decoupled from the storage engine. Index
+ data is now stored in separate files, and the format of the main database
+ file has changed.
+* Databases can now be compacted to reclaim space used for deleted documents
+ and old document revisions.
+* Support for incremental map/reduce views has been added.
+* To support map/reduce, the structure of design documents has changed. View
+ values are now JSON objects containing at least a `map` member, and
+ optionally a `reduce` member.
+* View servers are now identified by name (for example `javascript`) instead of
+ by media type.
+* Automatically generated document IDs are now based on proper UUID generation
+ using the crypto module.
+* The field `content-type` in the JSON representation of attachments has been
+ renamed to `content_type` (underscore).
+
+Futon
+^^^^^
+
+* When adding a field to a document, Futon now just adds a field with an
+ autogenerated name instead of prompting for the name with a dialog. The name
+ is automatically put into edit mode so that it can be changed immediately.
+* Fields are now sorted alphabetically by name when a document is displayed.
+* Futon can be used to create and update permanent views.
+* The maximum number of rows to display per page on the database page can now
+ be adjusted.
+* Futon now uses the XMLHTTPRequest API asynchronously to communicate with the
+ CouchDB HTTP server, so that most operations no longer block the browser.
+* View results sorting can now be switched between ascending and descending by
+ clicking on the `Key` column header.
+* Fixed a bug where documents that contained a `@` character could not be
+ viewed. (:issue:`12`)
+* The database page now provides a `Compact` button to trigger database
+ compaction. (:issue:`38`)
+* Fixed portential double encoding of document IDs and other URI segments in
+ many instances. (:issue:`39`)
+* Improved display of attachments.
+* The JavaScript Shell has been removed due to unresolved licensing issues.
+
+JavaScript View Server
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* SpiderMonkey is no longer included with CouchDB, but rather treated as a
+ normal external dependency. A simple C program (`_couchjs`) is provided that
+ links against an existing SpiderMonkey installation and uses the interpreter
+ embedding API.
+* View functions using the default JavaScript view server can now do logging
+ using the global `log(message)` function. Log messages are directed into the
+ CouchDB log at `INFO` level. (:issue:`59`)
+* The global `map(key, value)` function made available to view code has been
+ renamed to `emit(key, value)`.
+* Fixed handling of exceptions raised by view functions.
+
+HTTP Interface
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+* CouchDB now uses MochiWeb instead of inets for the HTTP server
+ implementation. Among other things, this means that the extra configuration
+ files needed for inets (such as `couch_httpd.conf`) are no longer used.
+* The HTTP interface now completely supports the `HEAD` method. (:issue:`3`)
+* Improved compliance of `Etag` handling with the HTTP specification.
+ (:issue:`13`)
+* Etags are no longer included in responses to document `GET` requests that
+ include query string parameters causing the JSON response to change without
+ the revision or the URI having changed.
+* The bulk document update API has changed slightly on both the request and the
+ response side. In addition, bulk updates are now atomic.
+* CouchDB now uses `TCP_NODELAY` to fix performance problems with persistent
+ connections on some platforms due to nagling.
+* Including a `?descending=false` query string parameter in requests to views
+ no longer raises an error.
+* Requests to unknown top-level reserved URLs (anything with a leading
+ underscore) now return a `unknown_private_path` error instead of the
+ confusing `illegal_database_name`.
+* The Temporary view handling now expects a JSON request body, where the JSON
+ is an object with at least a `map` member, and optional `reduce` and
+ `language` members.
+* Temporary views no longer determine the view server based on the Content-Type
+ header of the `POST` request, but rather by looking for a `language` member
+ in the JSON body of the request.
+* The status code of responses to `DELETE` requests is now 200 to reflect that
+ that the deletion is performed synchronously.
