CHANGELOG.md

Change Log

All notable changes to the PreTeXt-CLI will be documented in this file (admittedly started rather late in the game).

The format is based on Keep a Changelog, and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.

Instructions: Add a subsection under [Unreleased] for additions, fixes, changes, and removals of features accompanying each PR. When a release is made, the github action will automatically add the next version number above the unreleased changes with the date of release.

[Unreleased]

Added

• pretext update command will update managed files and the requirements.txt file to match current installed version of PreTeXt.

Changed

• Improved help when deploy fails.
• Managed files (project.ptx, requirements.txt, etc) are now managed by comparing to stock versions, not by a magic comment at top.
• Only manage git-related files (.gitignore, .devcontainer.json, .github/workflows/pretext-cli.yml) when project is tracked by git.
• Only updates managed files when pretext update is run, instead on every run.
• Only check for new pretext version once a day.

Fixed

• Removed unneeded warnings about pretext projects existing or not when running pretext upgrade and pretext new.
