Redis 3.0 release notes
=======================
--[ Redis 3.0.0 ] Release date: 1 Apr 2015
>> What's new in Redis 3.0 compared to Redis 2.8?
* Redis Cluster: a distributed implementation of a subset of Redis.
* New "embedded string" object encoding resulting in less cache
misses. Big speed gain under certain work loads.
* AOF child -> parent final data transmission to minimize latency due
to "last write" during AOF rewrites.
* Much improved LRU approximation algorithm for keys eviction.
* WAIT command to block waiting for a write to be transmitted to
the specified number of slaves.
* MIGRATE connection caching. Much faster keys migraitons.
* MIGARTE new options COPY and REPLACE.
* CLIENT PAUSE command: stop processing client requests for a
specified amount of time.
* BITCOUNT performance improvements.
* CONFIG SET accepts memory values in different units (for example
you can use "CONFIG SET maxmemory 1gb").
* Redis log format slightly changed reporting in each line the role of the
instance (master/slave) or if it's a saving child log.
* INCR performance improvements.
>> Refactoring changes (no new features nor bug fixes)
* Blocking operations full refactoring (blocked.c)
* Client output buffer memory tracking refactored.

--[ Redis 2.8.13 ] Release date: 14 Jul 2014
# UPGRADE URGENCY: LOW for Redis and Sentinel, this is a features enhancement

monitoring feature, Redis 2.8 users experiencing latency
issues are strongly encouraged to upgrade.
* [FIX] CLIENT KILL minor backward compatibility fixes. (Salvatore Sanfilippo)

--[ Redis 2.8.12 ] Release date: 23 Jun 2014
# UPGRADE URGENCY: HIGH for Redis, CRITICAL for Sentinel.
# WARNING: This release contains a non backward compatible semantical change
to Lua script that should affect an almost zero number of users.
* [FIX / BREAKS BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY] Using SELECT inside Lua scripts no
longer makes the selected DB to be set in the calling client.
So Lua can still use SELECT, but the client calling the script will
remain set to the original DB. Thix fixes an issue with Redis
replication of Lua scripts that called SELECT without reverting the
selected DB to the original one. (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [FIX] Sentinel failover was instalbe if the master was detected as available
during the failover (especially during manual failovers) because
of an implementation error (lack of checking of
SRI_PROMOTED flag). (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [FIX] Cancel SHUTDOWN if initial AOF is being written. (Matt Stancliff)
* [FIX] Sentinel: bind source address for outcoming connections. (Matt
Stancliff).
* [FIX] Less timing sensitive Sentinel tests. (Salvatore Sanfilippo).
* [NEW] redis-cli --intrinsic-latency stopped with SIGINT still reports
stats (Matt Stancliff)
* [NEW] Sentinels broadcast an HELLO message ASAP after a failover in order to
reach a consistent state faster (before it relied for periodic HELLO
messages). (Salvatore Sanfilippo).
* [NEW] Jemalloc updated to 3.6.0. (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [NEW] CLIENT LIST speedup. (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [NEW] CLIENT LIST new unique incremental ID to every client. (Salvatore
Sanfilippo)
* [NEW] ROLE command added. (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [NEW] CLIENT KILL new form to kill by client type and ID (see doc at
redis.io for more info). (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [NEW] Sentinel now disconnects clients when instances are reconfigured
(see http://redis.io/topics/sentinel-clients). (Salvatore Sanfilippo)
* [NEW] Hiredis update to latest version. (Matt Stancliff)

# UPGRADE URGENCY: MODERATE for Redis and Sentinel.
* [FIX] Makefile compatibility with non common make variants improved.
* [FIX] SDIFF crash in very unlikely to trigger state fixed.
* [FIX] Config rewriting fixed: don't wipe options unknown to the rewrite
process.
* [FIX] Set TCP port to 0 works again to disable TCP networking.
* [FIX] Fixed replication with old Redis instances as masters by not
sending REPLCONF ACK to them.

<ChangeLog>
UPGRADE URGENCY: MODERATE, upgrade ASAP only if you experience issues related to

</ChangeLog>
<ChangeLog>
UPGRADE URGENCY: moderate if you don't experience any of the fixed problems.

literal name_enable wherever possible, and ${name}_enable
when it's not, to prepare for the demise of set_rcvar().
In cases where I had to hand-edit unusual instances also
modify formatting slightly to be more uniform (and in
some cases, correct). This includes adding some $FreeBSD$
tags, and most importantly moving rcvar= to right after
name= so it's clear that one is derived from the other.
<ChangeLog>
* [BUGFIX] Fixed issue 593 (BRPOPLPUSH related crash).
* [BUGFIX] Fixed an issue with the networking layer that may
prevent Redis from sending the whole reply back to client
under extreme conditions.

constructions that parse out to [ -z "$foo" ] && foo=""
These are bad examples that get copied and pasted into new code, so the
hope is that with less bad examples there will be less need for me to
bring this up in review.
In a few of these files all that were changed were comments so that next
time I search for these patterns I won't trip on the file for no reason.
In a few places, add $FreeBSD$
No functional changes, so no PORTREVISION bumps
Also update port infrastructure, remove needless script.

What's new in Redis 2.2.7
=========================
* Fixed bug #543-2 (the issue was reopened with a completely different report)
that caused Redis to randomly crash on list push performed against lists
with other clients blocked with BLPOP (or variants).
What's new in Redis 2.2.6
=========================
* Fixed bug #543. If you saw Redis instances crashing on List operations
(only happening with a non-default max entry size ziplist setting in
redis.conf) it was almost certainly this problem.
* Fixed a bug with replication where SLAVEOF NO ONE caused a slave to close the
connection with all its slaves.
</ChangeLog>
Adopt patch for redis.conf.
Previously and by default redis was compiled with debugging
information, that didn't respect CFLAGS. So, now its
possible to compile with debugging information by use
WITH_DEBUG knob.
Take maintainership.
