Hi Folks,

The GeoGit dev team is happy to announce the release of GeoGit version
0.4.0. The artifacts have been pushed to SourceForge
https://sourceforge.net/projects/geogit/files/geogit-0.4.0/ and the
latest docs published to the website.

As always we welcome feedback either on this list or via issues on the
GitHub Tracker. https://github.com/opengeo/geogit/issues

0.5 will continue to focus on performance and scalability improvements
as well as more small improvements to make things easier for the
downstream projects using GeoGit. The list of issues slated for this
release are listed here
https://github.com/opengeo/geogit/issues?milestone=7&page=1&state=open

================

New Features:

- Added support for aliases in OSM, and refactored and fixed previous OSM tools
- Added SQL Server Import / Export capabilities
- Added fetch, pull and push to web-api. Updated remote web-api to
support adding and removing remotes.
- Updated CheckoutWebOp and PullWebOp to support basic conflict resolution.
- Added Add and Remove commands to the web-api.

Improvements:

- Reorganized docs and use a consistent theme
- Up to x4 speed improvement in commit
- Use external storage for temporary data in PostOrderIterator, making
for faster fetch and push
- Added capability of setting author name and email for merge commits.
- Prevent duplicate commits from being processed in push and fetch.

Bug Fixes:

- Fix an apparently random test failure due to static initialization
of a helper class.
- Skip SQLite tests if Spatialite fails to load
- Fixed an issue which caused tree metadata id to be lost when
resolving conflicts.
- Changed how and incomplete OSM download is handled. Download with
incomplete entities is now not an exception and the cli command exists
with 0 code. This fixes a bug with the log file, which was not written
before in the case of an incomplete download
- Fixed issue that caused FeatureStore edits to change the metadataId
of RevFeature nodes.
- Fixed an issue with caused push to generate an exponential amount of
network requests.

This is awesome.  Thanks for the hard work!  Just curious, were the man pages left out of the 0.4.0 archive intentionally? 

cheers,
Matt

Not sure why they were left out of the archive, but they are available
online here http://geogit.org/manpages/

A note on the man pages: initially they were intended to be displayed when doing geogit <command> --help, but I haven't found a (platform independent) way of doing so.

In any case I think they could indeed be a release artifact, especially when we have deb/rpm installers. What do you think, would it be good to have them to either manually install them and being able of doing man geogit-<command> _and_ pre-packaged for linux (maybe mac too)?

Cheers,
Gabriel
