BUGFIXES
- Fix Redis password authentication
- Fix a crash in the weight randomization algorithm
- Fix a bug causing a rescan of all mirrors during startup

- scan: fix an issue causing a constant rehashing of all files #18
- The geoip-lite-update script did not update the databases correctly
v0.2
Changes: ======== cli: - Request a scan using a specific protocol (rsync or ftp) - Print basic download stats (mirrorbits stats <identifier>) core: - Improve parse errors in the configuration - Don't log if logdir in unset - Fix a minor corner case when the client and server are in the exact same location.
v0.1.2
This version fixes a possible division by zero during mirror selection.
It is strongly advised to upgrade.
v0.1.1
This is the second alpha release of mirrorbits.
Changes:
========
cli:
- A parse error in the mirror configuration can now be retried
- Add supports for taking notes / comments on a mirror
- Add a flag to auto-enable a mirror after a successful scan
- Add a flag to scan all mirrors at once
core:
- Improved mirror selection algorithm
- Fix few corner cases in weight distribution
Optimism is an occupational hazard of programming: feedback is the treament.

First alpha release
This version is stable enough for production environment but some API are still subject to change including:
- JSON query API (return values of download requests and stats)
- URL and parameters to query mirrorlist, mirrorstats and stats
