+will tell you what has been changed in the last week.

+
+9/2/98 Changed the way password validation works. We now keep a
+crypt'd version of the password in the database, and check against
+that. (This is silly, because we're also keeping the plaintext
+version there, but I have plans...) Stop passing the plaintext
+password around as a cookie; instead, we have a cookie that references
+a record in a new database table, logincookies.
+
+IMPORTANT: if updating from an older version of Bugzilla, you must run
+the following commands to keep things working:
+
+ ./makelogincookiestable.sh
+ echo "alter table profiles add column cryptpassword varchar(64);" | mysql bugs
+ echo "update profiles set cryptpassword = encrypt(password,substring(rand(),3, 4));" | mysql bugs
