Version 2.0.7 of the BigQuery Command Line tool has been released

[Michael Sheldon]

Version 2.0.7 of the BigQuery Command Line tool has been released to http://code.google.com/p/google-bigquery-tools/.

This is mostly a bug fix release. Changes include:

• --format=csv now supports UTF-8 output.
• Improved error messages when the client encounters network connectivity related issues.
• The discovery document for v2 is now packaged with the client, reducing network round trips.
• Better inline schema vs filename detection.
• A couple minor bugs and readme fixes.

Clients programming directly against bigquery_client will also observe:

• Default bigquery_client operations to sync to match expected behavior (bq defaults to sync).

To upgrade your current version (if you used easy_install to install it):

easy_install -U bigquery

More detailed installation instructions can be found in our README.

Thank you,
