spacemacs/CHANGELOG.org

* Release 0.104.x (next)
** 0.104.0
*** IMPORTANT: Breaking changes
- The =bookmark= save file has been moved to the =.cache= directory, if
  you have a bookmark file =~/.emacs.d/bookmarks= then you'll have to move it
  to file =~/.emacs.d/.cache/bookmarks=
- =Ruby on Rails= framework has now its own layer called =ruby-on-rails=,
  be sure to add this layer to your dotfile if you use RoR.
- =Django= framework has now its own layer called =django=,
  be sure to add this layer to your dotfile if you use it.
- =guide-key= has been replaced by =which-key=, you may encounter issues
  if you have =guide-key= custom configurations, remove any =guide-key=
  configuration and check the options offered by =which-key=.
- =salt= layer requires the new =yaml= layer, be sure to add the =yaml=
  layer to your dotfile if you use =salt=.
*** Hot new features:
- Whole new package list used in the file =packages.el= of a layer. Packages
  can now be a list with keyword properties, the currently supported
  properties are =:location=, =:step= and =:excluded=. =extensions.el= files

  deprecated in the next version 0.105.0.

  (=spacemacs-dark= and =spacemacs-light=) becomes the official themes of
  Spacemacs, official screenshots should be taken with one of these themes.

* Release 0.102.x
** 0.102.2 (2015/06/03)
*** Layer changes
**** Org
- Fix bug with =ox-gfm= by moving it to extensions
*** Core
- Fix detection of new versions by correctly fetch latest changes
** 0.102.1 (2015/06/01)
*** Layer changes
**** Org
- Fix lazy-loading of =ox-gfm= package.
*** Core
- Catch layer variables syntax errors
** 0.102.0 (2015/05/31)
*** IMPORTANT: Breaking changes
- All Emacs Lisp related configuration has been moved to its own layer
  called =emacs-lisp=, be sure to add this layer to your dotfile.
- All shell related configuration has been move to its own layer called
  =shell=, be sure to add this layer to your dotfile if you use a shell
  inside Emacs.
- Key binding to reload the dotfile is now ~SPC f e R~ instead of
  =C-c C-c= or ~SPC m c c~. Note that ~SPC f e R~ can be triggered
  anywhere (it is not restricted to the doftile anymore).
- Key binding to switch buffer is now ~SPC b b~ instead of ~SPC b s~.
- ~SPC f f~ now uses =helm-find-files= instead of =ido=, use the new
  dotfile variable =dotspacemacs-use-ido= to get the old behavior back.
- Helm ~TAB~ and ~C-z~ key bindings have been *swapped*.
- By default *single space* sentence delimiter is defined.
- Layer variable values set with =:variables= keyword need to be quoted
  like in a regular =setq= expression.

  with search related key bindings (~SPC /~, ~SPC s ...~).
  Supported tools are `ag', `pt', `ack' and `grep'."

  to highlight delimiters. Possible value is =all=, =current= or =nil=.
  Default is =all=. (thanks to tuhdo)

  this list will install them without needing them to be wrapped in a
  layer. Ideal for quickly add a package. The package configuration
  can be put in =dotspacemas/config=.

  for some commands. For now only =find-files= (SPC f f) is replaced.

  dotfile and the current template.

* Release 0.101.x
** Hot new features
*** Choose your own editing style
Thanks to the new =holy-mode= Spacemacs can now  be used by Vim users
or Emacs users by setting the =dotspacemacs-editing-style= variable to
='vim= or ='emacs= in the dotfile. In =Emacs= style the leader is
available on =M-m=. It is possible to dynamically switch between the
two style with ~SPC P tab~.
*** Mandatory init function and new Pre and Post init functions
A package is now considered to be used only if there is a corresponding
=<layer>/init-<package>= function explicitly defined.
There is now two new functions to initialize a given package:
- =<layer>/pre-init-<package>= which is called before the init function
- =<layer>/post-init-<package>= which is called after the init function
Even if  a =pre= or =post= function exist for a given package, an =init=
function is still required to consider the package to be used.
*** Auto-completion
Spacemacs now officially support auto-completion. The old layer
=company-mode= has been removed and =auto-complete= has been removed
from the spacemacs layer.
They are now part of a new layer called =auto-completion=.
You'll have to this add layer to your dotfile to enable auto-completion.
*** Syntax checking
Flycheck has been removed from the Spacemacs layer and moved to a new
layer called =syntax-checking=.
You'll have to add this layer to your dotfile to enable the fly syntax
checking.
*** Org
Org packages have been removed from Spacemacs layer and moved to a new
=org= layer.
You'll have to add this layer to your dotfile to enable the Org
configuration of Spacemacs.
*** New shortcuts in startup buffer
Recent files, project and bookmarks can be displayed on the startup
buffer. Check for the new dotfile variable =dotspacemacs-startup-lists=.
(thanks to CarlQLange)
*** New lighter in the mode line
Lighter letters have been updated, now the letter corresponds to the
key binding to toggle the associated mode. For instance auto-completion
is on ⓐ and thus can be toggled with ~SPC t a~.
*** Better package update
The package update should now prevent even more errors when upgrading
a batch of packages.
** Initial Release (2015/04/13)
