UPGRADE URGENCY: MODERATE if you use replication.
* [BUGFIX] Changing master at runtime (SLAVEOF command) in presence of
network problems, or in very rapid succession, could result
in non-critical problems (GitHub Issue #828).
* [IMPROVED] CLINGET GETNAME and SETNAME to set and query connection names
reported by CLIENT LIST. Very useful for debugging of
problems.

server to a local file using the --rdb <filename> command
line option.
</ChangeLog>
Add experimental support for lang/luajit, disabled by default.

multiple times (Issue #801).

UPGRADE URGENCY: MODERATE
Warning: this release of Redis introduces a different behavior in MULTI/EXEC
handling of errors. This was done because the new behavior is safer
compared to the old one, and should not break any code targeting
Redis 2.6 in a critical way.

* [IMPROVED] RDB/AOF childern now log amount of additional memory used
because of copy on write.
* [BUGFIX] MIGRATE non critical fixes (see commits for details).
* [BUGFIX] MULTI/EXEC: now EXEC aborts on errors before EXEC.
* [BUGFIX] Fix integer overflow in zunionInterGenericCommand resulting
into Z[INTER|UNION][STORE] commands to crash under extremely
unlikely conditions (almost impossible in real world).
* [BUGFIX] EVALSHA is now case insensitive (and will not crash).

* [BUGFIX] Fixed 32 bit build on Linux systems.

* [IMPROVED] redis-cli inline help updated.
* [IMPROVED] Marginally more robust AOF child handling.
* [IMPROVED] Fixed a few typos in comments.

* [BUGFIX] Allow AUTH when server is in -BUSY state because of a slow script.
* [BUGFIX] MULTI/EXEC flow now makes sense when observed in MONITOR
* [BUGFIX] SCRIPT KILL now uses different error prefixes for different errors.
* [BUGFIX] Default memory limit for 32bit archs lowered from 3.5 to 3 GB.
* [BUGFIX] redis-check-dump is now compatible with RDB files generated by 2.6.
* [IMPROVED] New field in INFO: slave_read_only.

Add TEST option for running unit tests.

<ChangeLog>
* [BUGFIX] Fixed compilation on FreeBSD.
* [IMPROVED] SRANDMEMBER <count> that returns multiple random elements.
* [IMPROVED] Sentinel backported to 2.6. It will be taken in sync with 2.8.
* [IMPROVED] Helper function for scripting to return errors and status replies.
* [IMPROVED] SORT by nosort [ASC|DESC] uses sorted set elements ordering.
* [BUGFIX] Better resistence to system clock skew.
* [IMPROVED] Warn the user when the configured maxmemory seems odd.
* [BUGFIX] Hashing function is now murmurhash2 for security purposes.
* [IMPROVED] Install script no longer uses a template but redis.conf itself.

UPGRADE URGENCY: HIGH
* [BUGFIX] Theoretical bug in ziplist fixed.
* [BUGFIX] Better out of memory handling (Log produced in log file).
* [BUGFIX] Incrementally flush RDB file on slave side while performing the
first synchronization with the master. This makes Redis less
blocking in environments where disk I/O is slow.
* [BUGFIX] Don't crash with Lua's redis.call() without arguments.
* [BUGFIX] Don't crash after a big number of Lua calls on 32 bit systems
because of a failed assertion.
* [BUGFIX] Fix SORT behaviour when called from scripting.
* [BUGFIX] Adjust slave PING period accordingly to REDIS_HZ define.
* [BUGFIX] BITCOUNT: fix crash on overflowing arguments.
* [BUGFIX] Return an error when SELECT argument is not an integer.
* [BUGFIX] Blocking operations on lists were completely reimplemented for
correctness. Now blocking list ops and pushes originated from
Lua scripts will play well together and will be replicated
and transmitted to the AOF correctly.
* [IMPROVED] Send async PING before starting replication to avoid blocking if
master allows us to connect but it is actually not able to reply.
* [IMPROVED] Support slave-priority for Redis Sentinel.
* [IMPROVED] Hiredis library updated.

- Fixed a not critical but important VM bug: from time to time a race
condition may happen and a client may never get the reply from a given
request.
- Now we have a make install target as stated in the README.
- redis-cli no longer tries to understand if it's part of a pipe
so there is to use the -x option to read the last arg from stdin.
This prevents it from creating problem when running inside cron scripts.
- Fixed the init script provided in the tar.gz. It was totally broken.
- Fixed a bug related to connecting more than 10k clients to Redis.

Redis 1.2.6 fixes two critical replication bugs, and a few
improvements.
- Fixed Issue 207 (http://code.google.com/p/redis/issues/detail?id=207)
(broken replication with binary arguments not in the last position
with the MSET command or any other command issued with new
multi-bulk protocol).
- Fixed Issue 174 (http://code.google.com/p/redis/issues/detail?id=174)
(temp names collisions producing broken slave-side .rdb files).
- Redis-cli backported from Redis master, with interactive mode, line
editing via the linenoise library, auth ability, and much more.
- ZRANGEBYSCORE now supports WITHSCORES as well (backported from
master).
- A simplified version of redis-stat (from redis tools) added.

Redis 1.2.5 fixes a replication bug: multiple slaves
connecting to the same master could lead to random
crashes or corruptions.
</ChangeLog>
Feature safe: yes
<ChangeLog>
redis-1.2.2 is a bugfix release, fixing a problem with BGSAVE and BGREWRITEAOF
copy-on-write semantics. This version of Redis will use a lot less CPU and
memory while performing a BGSAVE and BGREWRITEAOF operation.
It is very important to upgrade ASAP to this version if you are using Redis
with data persistence via snapshotting or append only file.
Another minor change is that the INFO command will now have a new field showing
memory usage in an human readable form. This was backported from Redis unstable
as well.
</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.
