Something has changed in CGI.pm in perl 5.10. It used to not care
if STDIN was opened using :utf8, but now it'll mis-encode utf-8 values
when used that way by ikiwiki. Now I have to binmode(STDIN) before
instantiating the CGI object.
In 57bba4dac1, I changed from decoding
CGI::Formbuilder fields to utf-8, to decoding cgi parameters before setting
up the form object. As of perl 5.10, that approach no longer has any effect
(reason unknown). To get correctly encoded values in FormBuilder forms,
they must once again be decoded after the form is set up.
As noted in 57bba4da, this can cause one set of problems for
formbuilder_setup hooks if decode_form_utf8 is called before the hooks, and
a different set if it's called after. To avoid both sets of problems, call
it both before and after. (Only remaining problem is the sheer ugliness and
inefficiency of that..)
I think that these changes will also work with older perl versions, but I
haven't checked.
Also, in the case of the poll plugin, the cgi parameter needs to be
explcitly decoded before it is used to handle utf-8 values. (This may have
always been broken, not sure if it's related to perl 5.10 or not.)
Turns out duplicate index files do not need to be stored when usedirs is in
use, just when it's not. Ikiwiki is quite consistent about using page/ when
usedirs is in use. (The only exception is the search plugin, which needs
fixing.)
This also includes significant code cleanup, removal of a incorrect special
case for empty files, and addition of a workaround for a bug in the amazon
perl module.

Hi,
The issue is that we need to convert relative links to absolute
ones for atom and rss feeds -- but there are two types of
relative links. The first kind, relative to the current
document ( href="some/path") is handled correctly. The second
kind of relative url is is relative to the http server
base (href="/semi-abs/path"), and that broke.
It broke because we just prepended the url of the current
document to the href (http://host/path/to/this-doc/ + link),
which gave us, in the first place:
http://host/path/to/this-doc/some/path [correct], and
http://host/path/to/this-doc//semi-abs/path [wrong]
The fix is to calculate the base for the http server (the base of
the wiki does not help, since the base of the wiki can be
different from the base of the http server -- I have, for example,
"url => http://host.name.mine/blog/manoj/"), and prepend that to
the relative references that start with a /.
This has been tested.

destpage does not normally need to be worried about when creating other files
as part of the process of rendering a page. Using destpage results in
inlined pages creating two copies of such files. It works to not use destpage
in this case because the inlining page depends on the source page, so if the
source page is modified or deleted the inlining page will be updated.
Instead of using the XML-RPC v2 extension <nil/>, which Perl's
XML::RPC::Parser does not (yet) support (Joey's patch is pending), we
agreed on a sentinel: {'null':''}, that is, a hash with a single key
"null" pointing to the empty string.
The Python proxy automatically converts None appropriately and raises an
exception if a hook function should, by weird coincidence, attempt to
return {'null':''}.

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,
which allows for XRDS delegation.

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.

sheets etc. Add a new forcebareurl parameter to misctemplate to allow
it to do that.
of XML::RPC's default of us-ascii. Allows interoperation with
python's xmlrpc library, which threw invalid encoding exceptions and
caused the rst plugin to hang.
Some browsers interpret about: URIs like a limited version of data:
URIs. In particular, some versions of Internet Explorer interpret
arbitrary HTML content in about: URIs.
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.
(Tested fairly thuroughly.)
license, and copyright. This can be used to create custom RecentChanges.
* 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.
