This release fixes an edge case where the new REVISION_TIME feature of 3.19.0 could cause deploys to hang in server environments where Git is configured to use an interactive pager.

https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/compare/v3.6.1...v3.7.0

Note: These release notes include all changes since 3.6.1, including the changes that were first published in 3.7.0.beta1.

Deprecations:

• The set :scm, ... mechanism is now deprecated in favor of a new SCM plugin system. See the UPGRADING-3.7 document for details

Potentially breaking changes:

• The :git_strategy, :hg_strategy, and :svn_strategy settings have been removed with no replacement. If you have been using these to customize Capistrano's SCM behavior, you will need to rewrite your customization using the new plugin system
• remote_file feature has been removed and is no longer available to use @SaiVardhan

New features:

• The tar used by the Git SCM now honors the SSHKit command map, allowing an alternative tar binary to be used (e.g. gtar) #1787 (@caius)
• Add support for custom on-filters #1776

Fixes:

• Fix test suite to work with Mocha 1.2.0 (@caius)
• Fix bug where host_filter and role_filter were overly greedy #1766 (@cseeger-epages)
• Fix the removal of old releases deploy:cleanup. Logic is changed because of unreliable modification times on folders. Removal of directories is now decided by sorting on folder names (name is generated from current datetime format YmdHis). Cleanup is skipped, and a warning is given when a folder name is in a different format

Fixes:

• Restore compatibility with older versions of Rake (< 11.0.0) (@troelskn)
• Fix NoMethodError: undefined method gsub when setting :application to a Proc. The original fix released in 3.6.0 worked for values specified with blocks, but not for those specified with procs or lambdas (the latter syntax is much more common). #1681
• Fix a bug where deploy would fail if :local_user contained a space; spaces are now replaced with dashes when computing the git-ssh suffix. (@will_in_wi)

• Make path to git wrapper script configurable (@thickpaddy)
• Make name of current directory configurable via configuration variable :current_directory (@websi)
• It is now possible to rollback to a specific release using the

  #1155 (@lanrion)

Fixes:

• doctor no longer erroneously warns that :git_strategy and other SCM options are "unrecognized" (@shanesaww)

https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano/compare/v3.4.1...v3.5.0

You'll notice a big cosmetic change in this release: the default logging
format has been changed to
Airbrussh. For more details on
what Airbrussh does
and how to configure it, visit the
Airbrussh README.

• To opt out of the new format, simply add set :format, :pretty to switch to
  the old default of Capistrano 3.4.0 and earlier.
• If you are already an Airbrussh user, note that the default configuration has
  changed, and the syntax for configuring Airbrussh has changed as well.
  This simple upgrade guide
  will walk you through it.

Potentially breaking changes:

• Drop support for Ruby 1.9.3 (Capistrano does no longer work with 1.9.3)
• Git version 1.6.3 or greater is now required
• Remove 'vendor/bundle' from default :linked_dirs (@ojab)
• Old versions of SSHKit (before 1.9.0) are no longer supported
• SHA1 hash of current git revision written to REVISION file is no longer abbreviated
• Ensure task invocation within after hooks is namespace aware, which may require
  you to change how your after hooks are declared in some cases; see
  #1652 for an example
  and how to correct it (@thickpaddy)
• Validation of the :application variable forbids special characters such as slash,
  this may be a breaking change in case that you rely on using a / in your application
  name to deploy from a sub directory.

New features:

• Added a doctor task that outputs helpful troubleshooting information. Try it like this: cap production doctor. (@mattbrictson)
• Added a dry_run? helper method
• remove DSL method for removing values like from arrays like linked_dirs
• append DSL method for pushing values like linked_dirs
  #1447,

• Added options to set username and password when using Subversion as SCM (@dsthode)
• Allow after() to refer to tasks that have not been loaded yet (@jcoglan)
• Allow use "all" as string for server filtering (@theist)
• Print a warning and abort if "load:defaults" is erroneously invoked after
  capistrano is already loaded, e.g. when a plugin is loaded in deploy.rb
  instead of Capfile. (@mattbrictson)
• Added option to set specific revision when using Subversion as SCM (@marcovtwout)
• Deduplicate list of linked directories
• Integration with Harrow.io (See http://capistranorb.com/documentation/harrow/) when running cap install
• Added validate method to DSL to allow validation of certain values (@Kriechi)
  • validate values before assignment inside of set(:key, value)
  • should raise a Capistrano::ValidationError if invalid
• Added default validation for Capistrano-specific variables (@Kriechi)

Fixes:

• Capistrano is now fully-compatible with Rake 11.0. (@mattbrictson)
• Fix filtering behaviour when using literal hostnames in on() block (@townsen)
• Allow dot in :application name (@marcovtwout)
• Fixed git-ssh permission error (@spight)
