• New Features
• Permission denied errors are shown when accessing unreachable local Git
• repositories. (Bug #1765)
• Previously, if a Git repository was used and there wasn’t sufficient
• file permissions to access it, a vague error saying that the repository
• was unreachable would appear. Now we check to find out if it’s a
• permissions error, and display an appropriate error message.
• Performance Improvements
• Reduce the number of SQL queries in the legacy JSON API.
• Some of the legacy API handlers performed more queries than necessary.
• We now perform fewer queries. Patch by Ben Hollis.
• Bug Fixes
• Fixed several small problems in the Admin UI from bundling Django media
• files.
• For historical reasons, we’ve always shipped the Django Admin media
• files as part of Review Board. This comes from a time before rb-site
• existed, when we needed a single media directory with everything inside
• it. However, it just introduces various compatibility problems these
• days. We now make use of the media files that are installed with Django
• Fixed a breakage in the diff viewer with SCons files. (Bug #1864)
• Any SCons files put up for review would break the diff viewer, due to a
• typo when looking up information on that type of file.
• Added the Parent Diff field to the New Review Request page. (Bug #1651)
• The Parent Diff field was missing for Git, Bazaar, and Mercurial,
• making it impossible to upload a parent diff through the web UI when
• creating a new review request.
• Fixed some common installation problems with the generated
• lighttpd.conf file. (Bug #1618, Bug #1639)
• Several installs with lighttpd would give 404 Not Found errors, due to
• some configuration problems in the sample config file.
• Fixed support for multiple e-mail addresses assigned to a group.
• (Bug #1661)
• Multiple e-mail addresses for a group were supported, but broken in
• 1.5. We now split them out properly.
• The screenshot area is no longer hidden immediately after uploading a
• screenshot.
• Fixed an error in the web API when serializing to XML.
• Fixed broken intervals for search updating in the generated crontab
• file.
• The intervals would cause a full index to happen at every minute at 2AM
• on Sundays, rather than only at 2AM.
• Fixed an error when permanently deleting a review request.
• The administrator-specific ability to permanently delete a review
• request would succeed but generate an error page.
