Markdown is slow. Especially if it has to process an enormous page. The
most common enormous page is currently the recentchanges page, which gets
processed a lot, and contains very little actual markdown. Most of it is a
big <div>, which markdown skips ... slowly.
This is a rather sick optimisation to work around markdown's speed issues.
Now inline inserts a small, dummy div, allows markdown to quickly render
the actual page content, then replaces the dummy with the actual inlined
pages later.
Results: Rendering just a recentchanges page, with diffs included, dropped
from 4.5 seconds to 2.7 seconds on my laptop. Building the entire wiki
dropped from 46.6 seconds to 39.5 seconds.
(It would be better if inline were a *post*-processor directive.)
xml rpc only allows functions to return a single value, no lists. So getargv
needs to return a list reference, which means that the caller will see an xml
rpc array.
This works around a perl crasher bug, and also avoids bloating pages
with enormous diffs.
rcs_recentchanges modified to return a list in an array context.
set to the destination page. This avoids need for hacks to munge the urls
in preview mode, which fixes several bugs.
* Several destpage fixes in plugins.
Adds an optional xrds-location parameter to the openid meta handler,

Markdown is such a splintered mess.. The current debian package provides
only Text::Markdown::Markdown, while all versions of Text::Markdown support
Text::Markdown::markdown, and old versions also support the capitalised version,
while new ones don't.
It's getting to the point where `grep /markdown/i %symbol_table` is the only
sane way to figure out what function to call..
* rcs_diff is a new function that rcs modules should implement.
* Implemented rcs_diff for git, svn, and tla (tla version untested).
Mercurial and monotone still todo.
Add special handling for <meta name="robots" ...> which needs not be
scrubbed as it's harmless.

A new regexp fixes this bug:
http://ikiwiki.info/bugs/No_link_for_blog_items_when_filename_contains_a_colon/
I traced this down to htmlscrubber. If disabled,
it works. If enabled, then $safe_url_regexp
determines the URL unsafe because of the colon and
hence removes the src attribute.
Digging into this, I find that RFC 3986 pretty
much discourages colons in filenames:
"""
A path segment that contains a colon character
(e.g., "this:that") cannot be used as the first
segment of a relative-path reference, as it would
be mistaken for a scheme name. Such a segment must
be preceded by a dot-segment (e.g., "./this:that")
to make a relative- path reference.
"""
on the other hand, with usedirs, any link to
another page will be prepended by ../ anyway, so
that makes them okay again.
The solution still seems not to use colons.
In any case, htmlscrubber should get a new regexp,
courtesy of dato.
I have tested and verified this.

which forced a scan of the page to make available metadata that
appeared after the inline directive. Problem is that scan made it forget
about any other files rendered due to the page. The scan also turns out
to be unnecessary now, since meta persistently stores state and it's
always available. So it was just removed.

caused the rst plugin to hang.

just avoid actually writing the files. This is necessary because ikiwiki
saves state after a preview (in case it actually *did* write files),
and if will_render isn't called its security checks will get upset
when the page is saved. Thanks to Edward Betts for his help tracking this
tricky bug down.
Now aggregation will not lock the wiki. Any changes made during aggregaton are
merged in with the changed state accumulated while aggregating. A separate
lock file prevents multiple concurrent aggregators. Garbage collection
of orphaned guids is much improved. loadstate() is only called once
per process, so tricky support for reloading wiki state is not needed.

* meta: To support the pagespec functions, metadata about pages has to be
retained as pagestate.
* Fix encoding bug when pagestate values contained spaces.
I kept it to a simple global configuration, rather than using the
preprocessor directive for recentchanges, because that had chicken and egg
problems and seemed overcomplicated. This should work reasonably well,
though it would be good to add some more metadata so that more customised
recentchanges pages can be made.

links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
* If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
back that support.)
* meta: Improved data storage.

stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
liw's disappearing openids).

I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
(If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
It would be better if it were a formbuilder hook. But the formbuilder hook
is wacked.. I may need to change how that hook works, which would mean

* Change where the img plugin puts scaled images. It's better to make the
scaled images subpages of the page that embeds them, rather than putting
them alongside the original image, since if two pages scale the same image

creating the same file. The move will be handled transparently, though you
might want to rebuild your wiki to make it occur in one step.

commit hook, it was possible for one CGI to race another one and "win"
the commit of both their files. This race has been fixed by adding a new
commitlock, which when locked by the CGI, disables the commit hook
(except for commit mails). The CGI then takes care of the updates the
commit hook would have done.
