- Update to 4.3.1:
* Updated bitarray dependency to allow for v3.x.
- Update to 4.3.0:
* Upgraded bitarray dependency to >= 3.0.0.
* Explicit support for Python 3.13.
* Added i and I struct codes for 32-bit ints. Bug #340.
* Removed the 'experimental feature' label from the new exotic floating point
types.
* Fix for negative index LSB0 slicing issue. Bug #343.
- Update to 4.2.3:
* Some codes representing exotic float negative zero converted to positive
zero. Bug #333.
* Auto-scaling rounding the wrong way on occasion. Bug #334.
- Update to 4.2.2:
* Sometimes a ValueError was being raised instead of a ReadError. Bug #325.
* Initialising a bitstring from None now raises a TypeError rather than
generating an empty bitstring. Bug #323.
* Fixed performance regression for find/findall in some situations. Bug #326.
* Fix for AttributeError bug when combining Bits with BitStream. Bug #329.
- Update to 4.2.1:
* Module crashes on import with 32-bit Python. Bug #317.
* Lists of integers not converted to bytes when using the bytes constructor.
Bug #318.
* Empty comma separated tokens not handled correctly. Bug #319.
* Crash on import when docstrings not present due to optimize flag. Bug #321.
- Update to 4.2.0:
* Dropped support for Python 3.7. Minimum version is now 3.8.
* For tokens that use a non-numeric length, a ':' is now compulsory rather
than recommended. For example use 'uint:foo' instead of 'uintfoo'.
* The previous e4m3float and e5m2float formats have become the slightly
modified p4binary8 and p3binary8 formats.
* Some parameters are now enforced as positional only, such as auto in
constructors.
* The Array class is no longer 'beta'.
* A new Dtype class can be optionally used to specify types.
* The bitstring.options object is now the preferred method for changing
module options.
The bitstring.lsb0 and bitstring.bytealigned variables are now deprecated,
use bitstring.options.lsb0 and bitstring.options.bytealigned instead.
* New fromstring method as another way to create bitstrings from formatted
strings.
Instead of relying on the auto parameter you can now optionally use fromstring.
* More types can now be pretty printed. For example integer and float formats
can be used.
* Pretty printing is now prettier - optional terminal colours added.
* A range of 8-bit, 6-bit and even 4-bit float formats added (beta).
* Performance improvements.
- Update to 4.1.4:
* 'bytes' token can't be used without explicit length. Bug #303.
- Update to 4.1.3:
* Removed a couple of files that accidentally got included in the previous
release. Bug #293.
* The 8-bit float formats have been renamed e4m3float and e5m2float.
* Some refactoring and performance optimizations.
- Update to 4.1.2:
* Fix for the module command-line usage. Bug #290.
* Fix for when creating bitstrings from memoryview objects.
* Renamed the fmt parameter for Arrays to dtype.
* More Array operator coverage.
* Added operators that act on two Arrays of the same size.
* Added comparison operators for Arrays that return an Array of bools.
* Added Array.equals method as == will now return an Array (see above item).
* Added astype() method for Arrays to easily cast to a new dtype.
- Update to 4.1.1:
* bitarray dependency now pinned to ">=2.8.0, <3.0.0" rather than a specific
version. Bug #283.
* Fix for using numpy integers as integer parameters. Bug #286.
* Removed ability to extend an Array with the + operator. Use the extend
method instead.
* Improvements when pretty-printing the Array.
* Array.count() can now count float('nan') values for floating point types.
- Update to 4.1.0:
* Speed increased with bitarray dependency
* New Array class for homogeneous data
* Added two new floating point interpretations: float8_143 and float8_152
* Auto initialization from ints has been removed and now raises a TypeError.
Creating a bitstring from an int still creates a zeroed bitstring of that
length but ints won't be promoted to bitstrings as that has been a constant
source of errors and confusion.
* Explicitly specifying the auto parameter is now disallowed rather than
discouraged.
* Deleting, replacing or inserting into a bitstring resets the bit position
to 0 if the bitstring's length has been changed. Previously the bit position
was adjusted but this was not well-defined
* Only empty bitstring are now considered false in a boolean sense.
* Casting to bytes now behaves as expected, so that bytes(s) gives the same
result as s.tobytes(). Previously it created a byte per bit.
* Pretty printing with the 'bytes' format now uses characters from the
'Latin Extended-A' unicode block for non-ASCII and unprintable characters
instead of replacing them with '.'
* When using struct-like codes you can now use '=' instead of '@' to signify
native- endianness. They behave identically, but the new '=' is now preferred.
* More fixes for LSB0 mode.
- Update to 4.0.2:
* Added py.typed file and converted the module to a package to let mypy
find type annotations. Bug 248.
* Fix to shifting operations when using LSB0 mode. Bug 251.
* A few more fixes for LSB0 mode.
* Improved LSB0 documentation.
* Added build-system section to pyproject.toml. Bug 243.
* Rewrote the walkthrough documentation as a jupyter notebook.
* Updated the project's logo.
- Update to 4.0:
* Minimum supported Python version is now Python 3.7.
* Removed ConstBitArray and BitString class aliases. Use Bits and BitStream
instead.
* The cut() method will now also yield the final bits of a bitstring, even if
they are shorter than the requested cut size.
* Removed default uint interpretation. This wasn't being applied uniformly
the default is now always to return a bitstring object of the given length
and not to interpret it as a uint. Bug 220.
* If an overwrite goes beyond the end of the bitstring it will now extend the
bitstring rather than raise an exception. Bug 148.
* Type hints added throughout the code.
* Underscores are now allowed in strings representing number literals.
* The copy() method now works on Bits as well as BitArray objects.
* The experimental command-line feature is now official.
* New pp() method that pretty-prints the bitstring in various formats - useful
especially in interactive sessions.
* Shorter and more versatile properties. The bin, oct, hex, float, uint and
int properties can now be shortened to just their first letter. They can
also have a length in bits after them - allowing Rust-like data types.
* A colon is no longer required in format strings before a bit length.
* Support for IEEE 16 bit floats. Floating point types can now be 16 bits
long as well as 32 and 64 bits.
* Support for bfloats. This is a specialised 16-bit floating point format
mostly used in machine learning.

Sat Apr 20 12:37:23 UTC 2013 - p.drouand@gmail.com
- Update to version 3.1.2
+ this release has a fix for a problem where unpacked bytes could be
eight times too long.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Feb 26 13:12:50 UTC 2013 - p.drouand@gmail.com
- Update to version 3.1.0:
* New 'pad' token
This token can be used in reads and when packing/unpacking to indicate that
you don't care about the contents of these bits. Any padding bits will just
be skipped over when reading/unpacking or zero-filled when packing.
>>> a, b = s.readlist('pad:5, uint:3, pad:1, uint:3')
Here only two items are returned in the list - the padding bits are ignored.
* New clear and copy convenience methods
These methods have been introduced in Python 3.3 for lists and bytearrays,
as more obvious ways of clearing and copying, and we mirror that change here.
t = s.copy() is equivalent to t = s[:], and s.clear() is equivalent to del s[:].
* Some bug fixes.
