Changelog

diffoscope (87) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Juliana Oliveira Rodrigues ]
  * comparators:
    + utils:
      - compare: fix comparison between container types.
      - container: add get_path_name() method, aiming at preventing hitting
        OS' max filename length.
    + gzip: replace dest_path generation with self.get_path_name().
    + bzip2: replace dest_path generation with self.get_path_name().
  * tests:
    + presenters:
      - skip html_visuals test if 'sng' binary is not available.
    + comparators:
      - test_cointainers: new tests to test cross-container comparisons.
      - add test_containers.py.

  [ Chris Lamb ]
  * comparators:
    + utils:
      - file: correct reference to path_apparent_size.
    + fonts: loosen matching of file(1)'s output to ensure we correctly also
      match TTF files under file 5.32.
    + binwalk:
      - new comparator to deal with (e.g.) concatenated CPIO archives using
        the new optional python module 'binwalk'.  Closes: #820631
  * diffoscope.diff: Correct reference to self.buf.
  * debian/rules: run flake8 during the tests, and fail the build in case the
    "underfined name" flake8's check fails.
  * tests/comparators:
    + test_cpio: check we identify all CPIO fixtures.
  * main:
    + print a debugging message if we are reading diff from stdin.
  * presenters:
    + html: use logging.py's lazy argument interpolation.
  * debian/control: bump Standards-Version to 4.1.0.
  * Code style improvements across all of the codebase.

  [ Mattia Rizzolo ]
  * debian/changelog: retroactively close a bug in an old changelog entry.
  * setup.py: add a check to prevent people from installing diffoscope under
    python < 3.5 (i.e. python2) and give them a usable error message otherwise.
  * Code style improvements across all of the codebase.

  [ Ximin Luo ]
  * comparators:
    +  add a fallback_recognizes() method to work around file(1)'s bug #876316.
       Closes: #875282
    + add a --force-details flag for debugging.
    + deb:
      - if --force-details then don't skip files with identical md5sums either.
  * presenters:
    + html:
      - prune all descendants properly.  Closes: #875281
      - don't show pointer-cursor when jquery is disabled.
  * config:
    + force-set a value if it must be less than another, and it was not set on
      purpose.  Closes: #875451
  * readers: convert bytes to str in the right place.
  * diff: use diff_split_lines everywhere.
  * difference:
    + in fmap/map_lines, don't forget about self._visuals.
    + also copy self._comment properly, compare self._visuals in equals().
  * tests/comparators:
    + test_deb: make test_md5sums less brittle.
