Can choose to download files "at sync time" or "as needed"
On-demand defaults to on, but remains off for existing users
To-do:
- Handling of local and remote file changes on on-demand download
(currently if a file exists it isn't downloaded, which means a
remotely modified file won't be redownloaded in on-demand mode)
- Additional control over file downloading and retention
Other changes:
- Overhauled entire file syncing architecture
- Replaced numAttachments column with Note and Attachment columns with
dynamic icons to indicate status
- Double-clicking a parent with a missing best attachment and on-demand
downloading off no longer loads the parent URL
- Bugs
TODO: limit to large syncs?
This needs a lot of testing.
Also:
- Tweak pumpGenerator() wait level behavior to match Zotero.wait()
- If Zotero is closed in the top-most window, show a popup instead of the pane-covering progress meter, and take an optional icon in Zotero.showZoteroPaneProgressMeter() for use in the popup
- Restore protection against opening Zotero pane when Zotero.locked is set
- Display a nicer error if Zotero.DB.commitTransaction() is called without an active transaction
- Allow text with icons to extend to multiple lines in progressWindow popup
- Automatically use current window if one isn't specified in Zotero.repaint()
- Adds a per-library "Duplicate Items" virtual search to the source list -- shows up by default for "My Library" but can be added to and removed from all libraries
- Current matching algorithm is very basic: finds exact title matches (after normalizing case/diacritics/punctuation/spacing) and DOI/ISBN matches (untested)
- In duplicates view, sets are selected automatically; in other views, duplicate items can be selected manually and the merge interface can be brought up with "Merge Items" in the context menu
- Can select a master item and individual fields to merge from other versions
- Word processor integration code will automatically find mapped replacements and update documents with new item keys
Possible future improvements:
- Improved detection algorithms
- UI tweaks
- Currently if any items differ, all available versions will be shown as master item options, even if only one item is different; probably the earliest equivalent item should be shown for each distinct version
- Caching of results for performance
- Confidence scale
- Creator version selection (currently the creators from the chosen master item are kept)
- Merging of matching child items
- Better sorting of duplicates if not clustered together by the selected sort column
- Relation path compression when merging items that are already mapped to previously removed duplicates
Other changes in this commit:
- Don't show Trash in word processor integration windows
- Consider items in trash to be missing in word processor documents
- Selection of special views (Trash, Unfiled, Duplicates) is now restored properly in new windows
- Disabled field transform context menu when item isn't editable
- Left/right arrow now expands/collapses all selected items instead of just the last-selected row
- Relation deletions are now synced
- The same items row is now reselected after item deletion
- (dev) Zotero.Item.getNotes(), Zotero.Item.getAttachments(), and Zotero.Item.getTags() now return empty arrays rather than FALSE if no matches -- tests on those return values in third-party code will need to be changed
- (dev) New function Zotero.Utilities.removeDiacritics(str, lowercaseOnly) -- could be used to generate ASCII BibTeX keys
- (dev) New 'tempTable' search condition can take a table to join against -- useful for implementing virtual source lists
- (dev) Significant UI code cleanup
- (dev) Moved all item pane content into itemPane.xul
- Probably various other things
Needless to say, this needs testing.
- Implement connector for Firefox (should switch in/out of connector mode automatically when Standalone is launched or closed, although this has only been tested extensively on OS X)
- Share core translation code between Zotero and connectors
Still to be done:
- Run translators in non-Fx connectors (this works in theory, but it's not currently enabled for any translators)
- Show translation results in non-Fx connectors
- Ability to translate to server when Zotero Standalone is not running
Adds "Show Unfiled Items" context menu to libraries, which adds a virtual saved search for unfiled items. Right-click, Remove to hide. Per-library visibility is saved in prefs and persists across restarts.
Implemented as 'unfiled' search condition, but not accessible via search UI
Should probably use a different color icon to differentiate from real saved searches
also adds a parameter to disable proxy redirection by domain (although if I had known how much work would be involved in implementing this before I started, I wouldn't have bothered)

- Renamed 'Repository' to 'Library Catalog' and added 'Archive'
- Moved 'Repository' data to 'Archive' for item types other than books, periodicals, and theses
- Mapped 'Archive' to CSL 'archive'
- For "Book Section", added "Book Author" (needs to be mapped to CSL container-author) (closes#872)
- For A/V item types, "Recording Type" mapped to "Type" is now "Format" mapped to "Medium" (closes#1060)
- For "Radio Broadcast" and "TV Broadcast", replaced "Series Title" with "Program Title" mapped to "Publication Title" (CSL field container-title rather than collection-title) (closes#860)
- For "Patent", added "Country" field, removed (nonfunctional) base-map from "Place" to "Country", added "Issuing Authority", replaced "Date" with "Filing Date" (not currently mapped to CSL), and moved "Date" data to "Filing Date". Kept "Issue Date" base-mapped to "Date". (closes#1375)

This can't yet sync, so upping sync API version and delaying dev XPI build.
- Fix search for January dates
- Support 'yesterday'/'today'/'tomorrow' and localized equivalents (case-insensitive) in date searches (e.g., [Date Added] [is] ['yesterday'])
- Make "Saved Search" a separate search condition from 'Collection' in drop-down menu
- Better handle invalid search conditions
- (Dev) Saved search conditions are now 'collection' and 'savedSearch' rather than 'collectionID' and 'savedSearchID', though the latter can be used as shortcuts when adding
This could use some testing.
- Show appropriate message when moving items to trash
- Unbind delete action from Backspace on Windows, where it's non-standard
- Fixed some inconsistencies in Cmd/Ctrl-Delete behavior -- Cmd-Delete will move item to trash without prompt in Library and move items to trash with a prompt in collection or search
API changes:
- Zotero.Items.erase(), Zotero.Item.erase(), and Zotero.ItemTreeView.deleteSelection() no longer takes eraseChildren parameter
- Group file sync via Zotero File Storage
- Split file syncing into separate modules for ZFS and WebDAV
- Dragging items between libraries copies child notes, snapshots/files, and links based on checkboxes for each (enabled by default) in the Zotero preferences
- Sync errors now trigger an exclamation/error icon separate from the sync icon, with a popup window displaying the error and an option to report it
- Various errors that could cause perpetual sync icon spinning now stop the sync properly
- Zotero.Utilities.md5(str) is now md5(strOrFile, base64)
- doPost(), doHead(), and retrieveSource() now takes a headers parameter instead of requestContentType
- doHead() can now accept an nsIURI (with login credentials), is a background request, and isn't cached
- When library access or file writing access is denied during sync, display a warning and then reset local group to server version
- Perform additional steps (e.g., removing local groups) when switching sync users to prevent errors
- Compare hash as well as mod time when checking for modified local files
- Don't trigger notifications when removing groups from the client
- Clear relation links to items in removed groups
- Zotero.Item.attachmentHash property to get file MD5
- importFromFile() now takes libraryID as a third parameter
- Zotero.Attachments.getNumFiles() returns the number of files in the attachment directory
- Zotero.Attachments.copyAttachmentToLibrary() copies an attachment item, including files, to another library
- Removed Zotero.File.getFileHash() in favor of updated Zotero.Utilities.md5()
- Zotero.File.copyDirectory(dir, newDir) copies all files from dir into newDir
- Preferences shuffling: OpenURL to Advanced, import/export character set options to Export, "Include URLs of paper articles in references" to Styles
- Other stuff I don't remember
Suffice it to say, this could use testing.
