mtn-browse 0.70 and accompanying Perl monotone library released

Tony Cooper writes on monotone-devel:

I would like to announce the 0.70 release of mtn-browse:

Monotone browser (mtn-browse) is an application for browsing Monotone VCS databases without the need for a workspace. The interface allows one to:

  • Easily select a revision from within a branch
  • Find a revision using complex queries
  • Navigate the contents of a revision using a built in file manager
  • Display file contents, either using the internal viewer or an external helper application
  • Compare the changes between different revisions or versions of a file either using the internal difference viewer or an external application
  • Find files within a revision based on detailed search criteria
  • Display file annotations and easily refer back to the corresponding change documentation
  • Save files to disk
  • Browse remote databases via the netsync protocol
  • Support for Monotone version 0.35 up to 0.47
  • Extensive built in help
  • In English with additional German locale

This version brings many bug fixes and locale support improvements along with support for the newer versions of Monotone. The source can be downloaded from here.

Monotone::AutomateStdio is an object oriented Perl library module that allows Perl applications to easily interface with Monotone’s automate stdio interface. This library supports Monotone versions 0.35
up to and including 0.47. All of the automate stdio functions are available via this library. The source and documentation can be downloaded from here.

Both projects currently support Linux and Mac OS X, but should also work on Solaris and other Unixes. They are considered stable (well at least by me) so let me know if you run into problems.

Keep up the good work, Tony!
