will tell you what has been changed in the last week.
+4/22/99 There was a bug where the long descriptions of bugs had a variety of
+newline characters at the end, depending on the operating system of the browser
+that submitted the text. This bug has been fixed, so that no further changes
+like that will happen. But to fix problems that have already crept into your
+database, you can run the following perl script (which is slow and ugly, but
+does work:)
+#!/usr/bonsaitools/bin/perl -w
+use diagnostics;
+use strict;
+require "globals.pl";
+$|=1;
+ConnectToDatabase();
+SendSQL("select bug_id from bugs order by bug_id");
+my @list;
+while (MoreSQLData()) {
+ push(@list, FetchOneColumn());
+}
+foreach my $id (@list) {
+ if ($id % 50 == 0) {
+ print "\n$id ";
+ }
+ SendSQL("select long_desc from bugs where bug_id = $id");
+ my $comment = FetchOneColumn();
+ my $orig = $comment;
+ $comment =~ s/\r\n/\n/g; # Get rid of windows-style line endings.
+ $comment =~ s/\r/\n/g; # Get rid of mac-style line endings.

4/8/99 Added ability to store patches with bugs. This requires a new table
to store the data, so you will need to run the "makeattachmenttable.sh" script.
