ikiwiki version 1.29 is released.
Wikis need to be rebuilt on upgrade to this version. If you listed your wiki
in `/etc/ikiwiki/wikilist` this will be done automatically when the Debian
package is upgraded. Or use `ikiwiki-mass-rebuild` to force a rebuild.
There is a change to the plugin interface in this version. Plugins that use
`%renderedfiles will` need to be updated, as the hash's values are now arrays
of rendered files. Plugins that cause a page to render additional files
should use the new `will_render` function to register the files.
Changelog for this release:
* Patch from Paul Tötterman to use CP in the Makefile.
* Patch from Alec Berryman adding a http\_auth config item that allows
using HTTP Authentication instead of ikiwiki's built in authentication.
Useful for eg, large sites with their own previously existing user auth
setup. Closes: #[384534](http://bugs.debian.org/384534)
* Change %renderedfiles to store an array of files rendered from a given
source file, to allow tracking of extra rendered files like rss feeds.
* Note that plugins that accessed this variable will need to be updated!
The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
As few plugins use %renderedfiles I haven't done anything else to ensure
compatability of old plugins.
* Add will\_render function to the plugin interface, used to register that a
page renders a destination file, and do some security checks. Previously
but no longer rendered files will be cleaned up.
* Use will\_render in the inline and linkmap plugins.
* You will need to rebuild your wiki on upgrade to this version.
* Atom feed support based on a patch by Clint Adams.
* Add feeds=no option to inline preprocessor directive to turn off all types
of feeds.
* $IkiWiki::version now holds the program version, and is accessible to
plugins.
* Make the aggregate plugin emphasize error messages.
* Patch from Recai to limit recentchanges to displaying max 10 files for a
given changeset (to avoid large number of file changes excessively
bloating the page).

ikiwiki 1.32 released with these changes:
* Add a separate pass to find page links, and only render each page once,
instead of over and over. Typical speedup is ~4x. Max possible speedup:
8x.
* Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
%links.
* Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
(thousands) of pages.
* Stylish update to the ikiwiki logo, thanks to Recai Oktaş and Selçuk
Erdem.
* Add a default stylesheet entry for the pagecloud.
* Add examples page with some examples of things that can be done using
ikiwiki, like a weblog. The examples can be copied into a user's wiki
for a quick start, without needing to learn everything about how to put
them together.
* Install the source of the examples into /usr/share/doc/ikiwiki/examples.
* Add perlmagick to build-depends so syntax check of img plugin works.
Closes: #[396702](http://bugs.debian.org/396702)
* Improve login/register process, the login dialog has only name and
password fields, which allows more web browsers to regognise it as a login
field, and is less confusing.
* Implemented expiry options for aggregate plugin.
* Use precalculated backlinks info when determining if files need an update
due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if
there are lots of pages.
* Remove duplicate link info when saving index. In some cases it could
pile up rather badly. (Probably not the best way to deal with this
problem.)
* Patch from James Westby to support podcasting, photoblogging, vidcasting,
or what have you, by creating enclosures for non-page items that are
included in feeds.
