  @xavierholt PR #360

1.11.1

Bug fixes

• Fixed a regression in 1.11.0 that would cause
  ArgumentError: invalid option(s): known_hosts in some older versions of
  net-ssh. @byroot #357

1.11.0

Bug fixes

• Fixed colorized output alignment in Logger::Pretty. @xavierholt
  PR #349
• Fixed a bug that prevented nested with calls
  #43

Other changes

• Known hosts lookup optimization is now enabled by default. @byroot

1.10.0

• You can now opt-in to caching of SSH's known_hosts file for a speed boost
  when deploying to a large fleet of servers. Refer to the
  README for
  details. We plan to turn this on by default in a future version of SSHKit.
  PR #330 @byroot
• SSHKit now explicitly closes its pooled SSH connections when Ruby exits;
  this fixes zlib(finalizer): the stream was freed prematurely warnings
  PR #343 @mattbrictson
• Allow command map entries (SSHKit::CommandMap#[]) to be Procs
  PR #310

1.9.0

Refer to the 1.9.0.rc1 release notes for a full list of new features, fixes,
and potentially breaking changes since SSHKit 1.8.1. There are no changes
since 1.9.0.rc1.

1.9.0.rc1

Potentially breaking changes

• The SSHKit DSL is no longer automatically included when you require it.
  This means you must now explicitly include SSHKit::DSL.
  See PR #219 for details.
  @beatrichartz
• SSHKit::Backend::Printer#test now always returns true
  PR #312 @mikz

New features

• SSHKit::Formatter::Abstract now accepts an optional Hash of options
  PR #308 @mattbrictson
• Add SSHKit::Backend.current so that Capistrano plugin authors can refactor
  helper methods and still have easy access to the currently-executing Backend
  without having to use global variables.
• Add SSHKit.config.default_runner options that allows to override default command runner.
  This option also accepts a name of the custom runner class.
• The ConnectionPool has been rewritten in this release to be more efficient
  and have a cleaner internal API. You can still completely disable the pool
  by setting SSHKit::Backend::Netssh.pool.idle_timeout = 0.
  @mattbrictson @byroot PR #328

Bug fixes

• make sure working directory for commands is properly cleared after within blocks
  PR #307
  @steved
• display more accurate string for commands with spaces being output in Formatter::Pretty
  PR #304
  @steved
  PR #319 @mattbrictson
• Fix a race condition experienced in JRuby that could cause multi-server
  deploys to fail. PR #322
  @mattbrictson

v1.8.0

• add SSHKit::Backend::ConnectionPool#close_connections
  PR #285
  @akm
• Clean up rubocop lint warnings
  PR #275
  @cshaffer
  • Prepend unused parameter names with an underscore
  • Prefer “safe assignment in condition”
  • Disambiguate regexp literals with parens
  • Prefer sprintf over String#%
  • No longer shadow caller_line variable in DeprecationLogger
  • Rescue StandardError instead of Exception
  • Remove useless private access modifier in TestAbstract
  • Disambiguate block operator with parens
  • Disambiguate between grouped expression and method params
  • Remove assertion in TestHost#test_assert_hosts_compare_equal that compares something with itself
• Export environment variables and execute command in a subshell.
  PR #273
  @kuon
• Introduce log_command_start, log_command_data, log_command_exit methods on Formatter
  PR #257
  @robd
  • Deprecate @stdout and @stderr accessors on Command
• Add support for deprecation logging options.

  PR #258
  @robd
• Quote environment variable values.
  PR #250
  @Sinjo - Chris Sinjakli
• Simplified formatter hierarchy.
  PR #248
  @robd
  • SimpleText formatter now extends Pretty, rather than duplicating.
• Hide ANSI color escape sequences when outputting to a file.
  README,
  Issue #245,
  PR #246
  @robd
  • Now only color the output if it is associated with a tty,
    or the SSHKIT_COLOR environment variable is set.
• Removed broken support for assigning an IO to the output config option.
  Issue #243,
  PR #244
  @robd
  • Use SSHKit.config.output = SSHKit::Formatter::SimpleText.new($stdin) instead
• Added support for :interaction_handler option on commands.
  PR #234,
  PR #242
  @robd
• Removed partially supported TRACE log level.
  2aa7890
  @robd
• Add support for the :strip option to the capture method and strip by default on the Local backend.
  PR #239,
  PR #249
  @robd
  • The Local backend now strips by default to be consistent with the Netssh one.
  • This reverses change 7d15a9a to the Local capture API to remove stripping by default.
  • If you require the raw, unstripped output, pass the strip: false option: capture(:ls, strip: false)
• Simplified backend hierarchy.
  PR #235,
  PR #237
  @robd
  • Moved duplicate implementations of make, rake, test, capture, background on to Abstract backend.
  • Backend implementations now only need to implement execute_command, upload! and download!
  • Removed Printer from backend hierarchy for Local and Netssh backends (they now just extend Abstract)
  • Removed unused Net::SSH:LogLevelShim
• Removed dependency on the colorize gem. SSHKit now implements its own ANSI color logic, with no external dependencies. Note that SSHKit now only supports the :bold or plain modes. Other modes will be gracefully ignored. #263
• New API for setting the formatter: use_format. This differs from format= in that it accepts options or arguments that will be passed to the formatter's constructor. The format= syntax will be deprecated in a future release. #295
• SSHKit now immediately raises a NameError if you try to set a formatter that does not exist. #295

1.7.1

• Fix a regression in 1.7.0 that caused command completion messages to be removed from log output. @mattbrictson
