# Changelog
All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. The format
is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/).
This project has its own custom versioning scheme. Version numbers consist of
three parts (e. g. `3.1.5`).
- The first number is increased on major rewrites or changes. What classifies as
a major change is up to the maintainers. This is pretty rare and a PFERD
version 4 should hopefully not be necessary.
- The second number is increased on backwards-incompatible changes in behaviour.
This refers to any change that would make an existing setup behave differently
(e. g. renaming options or changing crawler behaviour). If this number is
increased, it may be necessary for you to adapt your own setup.
- The third number is increased on backwards-compatible changes (e. g. adding
new options or commands, changing documentation, fixing bugs). Updates that
only increase this number should be safe and not require manual intervention.
We will try to correctly classify changes as backwards-compatible or
backwards-incompatible, but may occasionally make mistakes or stumble across
ambiguous situations.
## Unreleased
If your config file doesn't do weird things with transforms, it should continue
to work. If your `-re->` arrows behave weirdly, try replacing them with
`-exact-re->` arrows. If you're on Windows, you might need to switch from `\`
path separators to `/` in your regex rules.
### Added
- `skip` option for crawlers
- Rules with `>>` instead of `>` as arrow head
- `-exact-re->` arrow (behaves like `-re->` did previously)
### Changed
- The `-re->` arrow can now rename directories (like `-->`)
- Use `/` instead of `\` as path separator for (regex) rules on Windows
- Use the label to the left for exercises instead of the button name to
determine the folder name
### Fixed
- Video pagination handling in ILIAS crawler
## 3.0.1 - 2021-06-01
### Added
- `credential-file` authenticator
- `--credential-file` option for `kit-ilias-web` command

### Fixed
- Date parsing now also works correctly in non-group exercises
