76161bd845 v1.18: Stanza Upgrade, Refactoring, and Locking Improvements
Bug Fixes:

* Fixed an issue where read-only operations that used local worker processes (i.e. restore) were creating write locks that could interfere with parallel archive-push. (Reported by Jens Wilke.)

Features:

* Added the stanza-upgrade command to provide a mechanism for upgrading a stanza after upgrading to a new major version of PostgreSQL. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)
* Added validation of pgbackrest.conf to display warnings if options are not valid or are not in the correct section. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)

Refactoring:

* Simplify locking scheme. Now, only the master process will hold write locks (for archive-push and backup commands) and not all local and remote worker processes as before.
* Refactor Ini.pm to facilitate testing.
* Do not set timestamps of files in the backup directories to match timestamps in the cluster directory. This was originally done to enable backup resume, but that process is now implemented with checksums.
* Improved error message when the restore command detects the presence of postmaster.pid. (Suggested by Yogesh Sharma.)
* Renumber return codes between 25 and 125 to avoid PostgreSQL interpreting some as fatal signal exceptions. (Suggested by Yogesh Sharma.)
* The backup and restore commands no longer copy via temp files. In both cases the files are checksummed on resume so there's no danger of partial copies.
* Allow functions to accept optional parameters as a hash.
* Refactor File->list() and fileList() to accept optional parameters.
* Refactor backupLabel() and add unit tests.
* Silence some perl critic warnings. (Contributed by Cynthia Shang.)

c9b49b0d7e Doc engine improvements.
Bug Fixes:

* Fixed and issue that suppressed exceptions in PDF builds.

Features:

* Allow a source to be included as a section so large documents can be broken up.
* Added section link support to Markdown output.
* Added list support to PDF output.
* Added include option to explicitly build sources (complements the exclude option though both cannot be used in the same invocation).
* Added keyword-add option to add keywords without overriding the default keyword.
* Added debug option to doc.pl to easily add the debug keyword to documentation builds.
* Added pre option to doc.pl to easily add the pre keyword to documentation builds.

Refactoring:

* Improvements to markdown rendering.
* Remove code dependency on project variable, instead use title param.

eaa981c5aa Added execution cache for document generation.
Added an execution cache so that documentation can be generated without setting up the full container environment. This is useful for packaging, keeps the documentation consistent for a release, and speeds up generation when no changes are made in the execution list.

c8d68bcf2d More detailed release notes.
Release notes are now broken into sections so that bugs, features, and refactors are clearly delineated.  An "Additional Notes" section has been added for changes to documentation and the test suite that do not affect the core code.

5a85122841 Moved change log to website.
The change log was the last piece of documentation to be rendered in Markdown only.  Wrote a converter so the document can be output by the standard renderers.  The change log will now be located on the website and has been renamed to "Releases".

50a62fab6d v0.89: Timeout Bug Fix and Restore Read-Only Repositories
* Fixed an issue where longer-running backups/restores would timeout when remote and threaded. Keepalives are now used to make sure the remote for the main process does not timeout while the thread remotes do all the work. The error message for timeouts was also improved to make debugging easier.

* Allow restores to be performed on a read-only repository by using --no-lock and --log-level-file=off. The --no-lock option can only be used with restores.

* Minor styling changes, clarifications and rewording in the user guide.

* The dev branch has been renamed to master and for the time being the master branch has renamed to release, though it will probably be removed at some point -- thus ends the gitflow experiment for pgBackRest. It is recommended that any forks get re-forked and clones get re-cloned.
