* Automated builds of Debian packages for all supported distributions.
* Added --dev option to aggregate commonly used dev options.
* Added --no-package option to skip package builds.
* C library and packages are built by default, added -smart option to rebuild only when file changes are detected.
* The --libc-only option has been changed to --build-only now that packages builds have been added.
* Documentation can now be built with reusable blocks to reduce duplication.
* Added ability to pass options to containers within the documentation.
* Add proper tag to slightly emphasize proper nouns.
* Allow logging to be suppressed via logDisable() and logEnable().
* Added more flexibility in initializing and cleaning up after modules and tests.
* testResult() suppresses logging and reports exceptions.
* testException() allows messages to be matched with regular expressions.
* Refactor name/locations of common modules that setup test environments.
This option allows pgBackRest to validate page checksums in data files when checksums are enabled on PostgreSQL >= 9.3. Note that this functionality requires a C library which may not initially be available in OS packages. The option will automatically be enabled when the library is present and checksums are enabled on the cluster.
* The options were ignored and did not cause any change in behavior, but it did lead to some confusion. Invalid options will now generate an error.
* Removed erroneous --no-config option in help test module.
* Changed the --no-fork test option to --fork with negation to match all other boolean parameters.
That is, while parsing options. Error codes were still being returned accurately so this would not have made a process look like it succeeded when it did not.
Allow internal symlinks to be suppressed when the repository is located on a filesystem that does not support symlinks. This does not affect any pgBackRest functionality, but the convenience link latest will not be created and neither will internal tablespace symlinks, which will affect the ability to bring up clusters in-place manually using filesystem snapshots.
This regression was introduced in v1.09 and affected efficiency only, all WAL segments were correctly archived in asynchronous mode.
