Reasoning: I am going to add man pages support to the live ebuild, but it does
not make sense to add this to the 1.0 ebuild previously used as the base. Since
new features will likely continue to appear in the live ebuild powerline-release
script was modified to do the right thing under new circumstances.
In Python-3* it used to show the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python-exec/python3.3/powerline-config", line 66, in <module>
args.function(pl, args)
AttributeError: 'Namespace' object has no attribute 'function'
now it shows
usage: powerline-config [-h] {tmux,shell} ...
powerline-config: error: too few arguments
in both python-2.7 and -3.3.
Fixes#1120.
Changes:
- When guessing used network interface for internal_ip segment the priority of
various VM bridge interfaces was lowered.
- Added `ignore_statuses` option that makes one able to prevent certain
repository statutes (e.g. `"U"`: only modification is unknown files) from
marking repository as dirty.
- Refactored `powerline.segments.common.players` module: deprecated
`now_playing` segment, replacing it with segments with names identical to
player names (e.g. `powerline.segments.common.players.mpd`). `now_playing`
segment will continue to work until powerline-2.0 though.
- Fixed `powerline.segments.tmux.attached_clients` segment: it was not working
at all due to missing argument in one function call.
- Fixed regular expression used to detect NERDTree buffers.
Reasoning for first: backwards compatibility. If user defined `now_playing`
highlight group it is what should be used.
Reasoning for second: it is useless there. If user has defined its own group its
effect will not be affected, if he has not then there is nothing to talk about.
Changes:
- Deprecated `powerline.segments.common`, moved all segments into deeply nested
modules (e.g. `powerline.segments.common.vcs`).
- Added support for different tag formats provided by tagbar plugin.
- Improved non-unicode locales handling.
- Improved non-unicode filenames handling.
- Improved Vim troubleshooting: it now runs powerline-lint automatically.
- Fixed weather segment: it was remembering its argument from the first run and
never allowed to change it.
- Fixed Uv watcher: it raised an exception for nonexistent files.
- Fixed zsh named directories handling when AUTO_NAME_DIRS option is set.
- Fixed --config_path handling when using daemon: in some cases it was
remembered once and never changed.
- Fixed Vim overrides when Vim is using Python-3*.
- Fixed Uv watcher on Python-3*: it used os.path.walk which was removed.
- Refactored and documented powerline.lint.
