v0.1.0

This release gets pybm out of the experimental phase!

New features:

• pybm report was deleted in favor of pybm compare; all previously available functionality from that command is now contained in additional switches for pybm compare. #32
• A legacy git checkout-based way for sourcing benchmarks from other refs was implemented, which pushes the minimum required git version down to 2.17.0 again. #33
• A global configuration file was added, which can be used to set different values for pybm config initialization without typing them out for pybm init. #34
• pybm's result saving was changed to a general IO interface, which is a general class interface implementing read and write APIs. #41
• pybm env switch was implemented to change a worktree's checkout from the command line. #41

Fixed problems and bugs:

• Fixed a bug which resulted in installed / uninstalled packages not being reflected in changing TOML env state when using pybm env install/uninstall. #39
• Fixed a bug which parsed out the version incorrectly from git --version output on Windows. This change enabled pybm checkout-based benchmark runs on Windows. #39
• Changed the timeit runner's logic to avoid the repeated Timer.autorange overhead, resulting in substantial performance gains. #39
• Added a small quickstart section to pybm for better getting up and running. #40

v0.0.3

This release of pybm contains a number of new features and bugfixes.

New features:

• The Google Benchmark runner is now fully supported and entered the CI pipeline. #30
• TOML is now used as the configuration markup language of choice; old YAML configuration files will not work anymore. You can however create a new configuration file in-place by using pybm init. #27
• Overriding values is now supported in pybm init with the -o switch. #20
• Config values are now all-lower-case instead of camel case. #24
• Documentation was added for the most important CLI commands and class components. #28

Bug fixes:

• The abbrev_home function was extended to also work on Windows. #26
• Some variable names were changed to reduce confusion. Now config help texts are available for all values. #29
• Builder print context managers now throw caught exceptions to allow stderr output which helps with debugging problems.

v0.0.2

This release of pybm contains some bugfixes and some new features.

New features:

• Implemented running benchmarks as modules via pybm run -m, for benchmarking code outside of an installed package. #4
• Implemented reductions of benchmark repetitions into descriptive statistics. #5
• Implemented checkout mode (pybm run --checkout), foregoing git worktree creation when there are no custom requirements necessitating siloed environments. #11
• Added git worktree move and git worktree repair to the list of emulated git worktree commands, allowing to rename a worktree after switching checkouts. #14, #15
• Added an end-to-end test GitHub Action for the pybm introductory example. #15
• Formatted the whole repository with psf/black, as well as adding a pre-commit hook for it. #15
• Added dynamic option sourcing and grouping for builder, runner and reporter interfaces. #16

Bugs:

• Fixed multiple setup bugs preventing installation on Python 3.7 (thanks to @YPFoerster for the report).
• Fixed a bug preventing package uninstalls by adding the -y flag into pip uninstall options for PythonVenvBuilder.
• Refactored and fixed previously wrong logic for mapping commits to git tags.

v0.0.1

The first release of the pybm project. Contains all necessary functionality to manage, run and report Python benchmarks via the pybm CLI.

It comes with a complete example walkthrough, too! The examples are located in the top-level folder of the same name.
