New in this release:
* --number-of-cores respects 'taskset' on GNU/Linux.
* --joblog --pipe gives the data send and received in the log.
* GNU Parallel was tested to support 100 GB sized records in --pipe. A
few bugs was fixed to support >2 GB records. It works, but is rather
slow.

20150122
* Remote jobs now send stderr (standard error) to stderr (standard
error) instead of stdout (standard output).
* Remote execution command is now packed using base64 encoded
bzip2. This means that big environments (app. 100 KB) can be
transferred. This change makes remote execution alpha quality.
* --semaphoretimeout now takes a negative value. This means give up if
the semaphore is not gotten within the timeout.
* --halt -1 and -2 now means halt if a job succeeds (so the opposite
of 1 and 2).
* --no-keep-order will reverse --keep-order.
* Bash's second fix of shellshock caused --env to break again when
exporting functions. This has been fixed again.
* A semibig refactoring of big functions. All non-trivial functions
are now less than 100 lines. The refactoring makes this release beta
quality.
* A description of the design decisions for GNU Parallel can be found
in 'man parallel_design'.
* A bug fix in replacement strings caused rewrite of the replacement
function. This makes use of replacement strings alpha quality.

* Remote systems can be divided into hostgroups (e.g. web and db) by
prepending '@groupname/' to the sshlogin. Multiple groups can be
given by separating groups with '+'. E.g. @web/www1 @web+db/www2
@db/mariadb
* Remote execution can be restricted to servers that are part of one
or more groups by '@groupname' as an sshlogin. Multiple groups can
be given by separating groups with '+'. E.g. -S @web or -S @db+web
* With --hostgroup you can restrict arguments to certain hostgroups by
appending '@groupname' to the argument. Multiple groups can be
given by separating groups with '+'. E.g. my_web_arg@web
db-or-web-arg@db+web db-only-arg@db Thanks to Michel Courtine for
developing a prototype for this.

* GNU Parallel now uses the same shell it was started from as the
command shell for local jobs. So if GNU Parallel is started from
tcsh it will use tcsh as its shell even if the login $SHELL is
different. For remote jobs the login $SHELL will be used.
* The whole current environment in bash can be copied by using a shell
wrapper function (Search manual for env_parallel).
* --plus adds the replacement strings {+/} {+.} {+..} {+...} {..}
{...} {/..} {/...}. The idea being that '+foo' matches the opposite
of 'foo' and {} = {+/}/{/} = {.}.{+.} = {+/}/{/.}.{+.} = {..}.{+..}
= {+/}/{/..}.{+..} = {...}.{+...} = {+/}/{/...}.{+...}

* {= perl expression =} can be used as replacement string. The
expression should modify $_. E.g. {= s/\.gz$// =} to remove .gz from
the string. This makes replacement strings extremely flexible.
* Positional perl expressions (similar to {2}) are given as {=2 perl
expression=} where 2 is the position.
* One small backwards incompatibility: {1}_{2} will replace {2} with
the empty string if there is only one argument. Previously {2} would
have been left untouched.
* Replacement strings can be defined using --rpl. E.g. parallel --rpl
'{.gz} s/\.gz$//' echo {.gz} ::: *.gz
* The parenthesis around {= perl expression =} can be changed with
--parens.
* --tmux will direct the output to a tmux session instead of
files. Each running jobs will be in its own window.
* --halt 10% will stop spawning new jobs if 10% failed so far.

* --pipepart is a highly efficient alternative to --pipe if the input
is a real file and not a pipe.
* If using --cat or --fifo with --pipe the {} in the command will be
replaced with the name of a physical file and a fifo respectively
containing the block from --pipe. Useful for commands that cannot
read from standard input (stdin).
* --controlmaster has gotten an overhaul and is no longer
experimental.
* --env is now copied when determining CPUs on remote system. Useful
for copying $PATH if parallel is not in the normal path.
* --results now chops the argument if the argument is longer than the
allowed path length.
* Build now survives if pod2* are not installed.
* The git repository now contains tags of releases.

* A tutorial showing much of GNU Parallel's functionality. Spend an
hour walking through the tutorial. Your commandline will love you
for it. man parallel_tutorial
* --line-buffer will buffer output on line basis. --group keeps the
output together for a whole job. --ungroup allows output to mixup
with half a line coming from one job and half a line coming from
another job. --line-buffer fits between these two; it prints a full
line, but will allow for mixing lines of different jobs.
* --record-env records all variables and functions set. Useful to
record the normal environment before using --env _.
* --env _ exports all functions and variables to the remote server
except for the ones recorded.

* '-L n --pipe' will use records of n lines. This is useful when
processing data that have fixed records with a fixed number of
lines (e.g. fastq).
* --filter-hosts will remove down hosts. For each remote host: check
that login through ssh works. If not: do not use this host.
Currently you can not put --filter-hosts in a profile, $PARALLEL,
/etc/parallel/config or similar. This is because GNU Parallel uses
GNU Parallel to compute this, so you will get an infinite loop. This
will likely be fixed in a later release.
* --pipe now uses fork() instead of busy wait. The performance should
be better on computers with >10 cores while remaining the same on
computers with few cores.
* GNU Parallel will be represented at Chiang Mai Bar Camp.

* Multiple ::: can be put on the command line and will be treated
similar to contents from multiple -a's.
* ::: and :::: can now be mixed on the command line. Use {1} .. {n} to
refer to inputs from the different input sources.
* --xapply is now needed to get xapply's behaviour of reading one line
from each of the input sources.
* Multiple input sources will cause all combinations of arguments from
the sources to be generated. E.g. 'parallel echo {1}+{2} ::: 1 2 :::
a b c' will print 1+a 1+b 1+c 2+a 2+b 2+c. This can often replace
nested loops.
* Implemented {//} for the input line with the basename removed (dirname).

* --tollef to be switch compatible with Tollef's parallel. This will
cause -l to mean --load, and the argument separator will be --
instead of :::
* --gnu will force GNU Parallel to behave like GNU Parallel even if
--tollef is set.
* Site wide config file: /etc/parallel/config
This should solve the issue with some packagers renaming GNU
Parallel to gparallel to avoid the naming conflict.
By putting --tollef in the site wide config file you can deinstall
Tollef's parallel and install GNU Parallel instead without any
change for users or scripts. This is useful for packagers that
currently rename GNU Parallel or simply do not distribute GNU
Parallel because the command name conflicts with Tollef's parallel.
* -L 0 -n 0, and -N 0 implemented. They will read one argument,
but insert 0 arguments on the command line. Useful if you just want
to run the same command with the same arguments a number of times.

* --pipe splits piped data into blocks. Each block is piped to a
program for processing. The piping and the programs will be run in
parallel. Useful if the data you want to process is data for a
program and not arguments.
* --blocksize sets the blocksize in bytes for --pipe. The blocksize is
approximate. It can deviate as much as the size of one record.
Default is 1M.
* --recstart sets the string matching the start of a
record. Default is "".
* --recend sets the string matching the end of a
record. Default is '\n'. To specify none use --recend "".
If both --recstart and --recend are set, the end of a record must be
followed immediately by a start of a record. This is useful if
either recend or recstart can occur in the middle of a record.
* --remove-rec-sep removes the string matched by --recstart and
--recend.
* --regexp will make GNU Parallel treat --recstart and --recend as
regular expressions.
* --output-as-files will put the output of the programs into files and
instead of giving the output GNU Parallel will output the name of
these files.
* -N if used with --pipe sets the number of records to read.

* Output from --progress is now sent to standard error instead of
standard output.
* --eta was broken and counted down from 0. Now fixed.
* Standard output and standard error are flushed after every job so if
standard output does not end with a newline it will still be grouped
with the rest of standard output.
* --command, -c, --file, and -f are now removed as options. They were
never used in practice.
* GetOptionsFromArray rewritten to work with old Perl libraries.
* The file COPYING now contains the GNU General Public License 3
* Major rewrite to make the code more object oriented and easier to

is running simply by changing the content of myfile.
* Implemented --profile to use different .parallel/config for
different situations.
* Ugly newlines in $PARALLEL and .parallel/config are no longer
needed. Instead you have to use \ in front of special shell
characters.
* --workdir puts the files transferred to remote machines in a
specified directory.
* $PARALLEL_PID is set to the process id of GNU Parallel.
* $PARALLEL_SEQ is set to the sequence number of the job.
* -v now only shows the command to run. Use -v -v to show the
ssh/rsync wrapping.
* Slow spawning error is now only a warning.
* If stdin is a tty and input is read from stdin you now get a
warning.
* GNU sql: \n and \x0a in arguments is replaced with newline.
* Patch for Debian package and spelling mistakes. Thanks to Rogério

* Untested Debian and xUbuntu packages available through OpenSUSE
build service:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=parallel&project=home%3Atange
* Using --retries a job will be retried on another computer if it
fails. This is useful if some jobs fail for no apparent reason (such
as network failure).
* BSD xargs -o (open /dev/tty) is now default for the job running in
foreground. Useful for interactive commands like:
ls | parallel -Xuj1 vi
* GNU sql now supports SQLite.
* Renamed .dburl.aliases to .sql/aliases and /etc/sql/aliases.
* GNU sql now support --list-tables
* Alias for DBURL can contain '?query' part with %-quoting.

* Using --shebang GNU Parallel can be used as the parser for a script.
E.g: #!/usr/bin/parallel --shebang traceroute (followed by lines of
hosts)
* First community generated bugfixes

* First 1000 views of the intro video
* sql - a small script to access sql bases from the command line which
is a handy companion to parallel --colsep

* Counting semaphore functionality: start a job in the background. If
N jobs are already running, wait for one to complete. Examples:
sem 'sleep 2; echo foo'; sem 'sleep 1; echo bar'; sem --wait
sem -j2 'sleep 2; echo foo'; sem -j2 'sleep 1; echo bar'; sem --wait
* With --colsep a table can be used as input. Example:
cat tab_sep_table | parallel --colsep '\t' echo col1 {1} col2 {2}
* --trim can remove white space around arguments.
* --sshloginfile '..' means use ~/.parallel/sshloginfile
* Zero install package. Thanks to Tim Cuthbertson <tim3d dot junk at

* Arguments can now be given on the command line. Example:
parallel bzip2 ::: *.txt
* xapply like functionality. Example:
parallel diff {1} {2} :::: filelist1 filelist2
parallel diff {1} {2} ">"{1.}-{2.}.diff :::: filelist1 filelist2
* Arch Linux package. Thanks to Peter Simons <simons at cryp dot to>
* Mandriva package. Thanks to Sandro Cazzaniga <kharec at mandriva dot

* New video showing the new options.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpaiGYxkSuQ or at
http://tinyogg.com/watch/TORaR/ and http://tinyogg.com/watch/hfxKj/
* 100% options complete with xargs. All options for xargs can now be
used in GNU Parallel - even the more exotic.
* --basefile for transferring basedata. When running jobs on remote
computers --basefile will transfer files before the first jobs is
run. It can be used to transfer data that remains the same for each
job such as scripts or lookup tables.
* --progress shows progress. To see how many jobs is running on each
server use --progress. It can be turned on even after GNU Parallel
is started.
* --eta shows estimated time left in seconds.
* --halt-on-error stops if an error occurs. GNU Parallel will default
to run all jobs - even if some of them fail. With --halt-on-error
GNU Parallel can ignore errors, wait for the currently running jobs
to finish, or stop immediately when an error occurs.
