be used in the context manager syntax as well. (GL#24)
* When a ``Lock`` uses a lock file that already exists and does not appear to
be a lock file (i.e. because its contents are ill-formatted), do a better
job of not clobbering that file. (GL#25)
* Improve some QA by re-adding diff-cover, Gitlab SAST during CI, and testing
on Python 3.10 beta (except for Windows)
* The ``master`` branch is renamed to ``main``. (GL#28)
5.1 (2021-05-28)
================

5.0.4 (2021-01-01)
==================
* Update copyright years.
* Include ``test/__init__.py`` and ``docs/__init__.py``.
5.0.3 (2020-10-22)
==================
* Rename top-level tests/ directory to test/ (GL#26)
5.0.2 (2020-10-21)
==================
* Minor housekeeping and cleanups.
* Add some missing licensing text.

5.0.1 (2020-08-21)
==================
* Reorganized docs and tests out of the code directory.
* Fix Read The Docs presentation.
5.0 (2020-08-20)
================
* **Breaking change** - The following methods have been removed:
``Lock.transfer_to()``, ``Lock.take_possession()``, ``Lock.disown()``.
These were crufty, undocumented APIs used in older versions of Mailman and
were not sustainable. (GL#21)
* Added official support for Python 3.9.
* Improvements to the documentation, including a better API reference and a
"theory of operation" page that gives more implementation technical
details. (GL#20) (GL#17)
* Boosted test coverage to 100%. (GL#18)
4.0 (2020-06-30)
================
API
---
* **Breaking change** - In ``Lock.refresh()`` and ``Lock.unlock()`` the
``unconditionally`` flag is now a keyword-only argument. (GL#13)
* **Breaking change** - Removed ``Lock.__del__()`` and ``Lock.finalize()``.
It's impossible to make ``__del__()`` work properly, and this is obsoleted
by context manager protocol support anyway. Since ``finalize()`` only
existed to help with ``__del__()`` and its functionality is identical to
``.unlock(unconditionally=True)``, this method is also removed. (GL#7)
* Added a ``Lock.expiration`` property. (GL#15)
* Added a ``Lock.lockfile`` property. (GL#16)
* Added a ``Lock.state`` property and the ``LockState`` enum. (GL#12)
* In all APIs, the ``lifetime`` parameter can now also be an integer number of
seconds, in addition to the previously allowed ``datetime.timedelta``. The
``lifetime`` property always gives you a ``datetime.timedelta``.
* The API is now properly type annotated.
* Some library-defined exceptions support exception chaining.
Behavior
--------
* Getting the ``repr()`` of a lock no longer refreshes it (GL#11)
Other
-----
* Add support for Python 3.7 and 3.8; drop support for Python 3.4 and 3.5.
* We now run the test suite on both Linux and Windows.
* The LICENSE file is now included in the sdist tarball.
* API documentation is now built automatically.
* Numerous quality improvements and modernizations.
3.2 (2017-09-03)
================
* Expose the host name used in the ``.details`` property, as a property.
(Closes #4).
3.1 (2017-07-15)
================
* Expose the ``SEP`` as a public attribute. (Closes #3)
3.0 (2017-05-31)
================
* Drop Python 2.7, add Python 3.6. (Closes #2)
* Added Windows support.
* Switch to the Apache License Version 2.0.
* Use flufl.testing for nose2 and flake8 plugins.
* Allow the claim file separator to be configurable, to support file systems
where the vertical bar is problematic. Defaults to ``^`` on Windows and
``|`` everywhere else (unchanged). (Closes #1)
2.4.1 (2015-10-29)
==================
* Fix the MANIFEST.in so that tox.ini is included in the sdist.
2.4 (2015-10-10)
================
* Drop Python 2.6 compatibility.
* Add Python 3.5 compatibility.
2.3.1 (2014-09-26)
==================
* Include MANIFEST.in in the sdist tarball, otherwise the Debian package
won't built correctly.
2.3 (2014-09-25)
================
* Fix documentation bug. (LP: #1026403)
* Catch ESTALE along with ENOENT, as NFS servers are supposed to (but don't
always) throw ESTALE instead of ENOENT. (LP: #977999)
* Purge all references to ``distribute``. (LP: #1263794)
2.2.1 (2012-04-19)
==================
* Add classifiers to setup.py and make the long description more compatible
with the Cheeseshop.
* Other changes to make the Cheeseshop page look nicer. (LP: #680136)
* setup_helper.py version 2.1.
2.2 (2012-01-19)
================
* Support Python 3 without the use of 2to3.
* Make the documentation clear that the ``flufl.test.subproc`` functions are
not part of the public API. (LP: #838338)
* Fix claim file format in ``take_possession()``. (LP: #872096)
* Provide a new API for dealing with possible additional unexpected errnos
while trying to read the lock file. These can happen in some NFS
environments. If you want to retry the read, set the lock file's
``retry_errnos`` property to a sequence of errnos. If one of those errnos
occurs, the read is unconditionally (and infinitely) retried.
``retry_errnos`` is a property which must be set to a sequence; it has a
getter and a deleter too. (LP: #882261)
2.1.1 (2011-08-20)
==================
* Fixed TypeError in .lock() method due to race condition in _releasetime
property. Found by Stephen A. Goss. (LP: #827052)
2.1 (2010-12-22)
================
* Added lock.details.
2.0.2 (2010-12-19)
==================
* Small adjustment to doctest.
2.0.1 (2010-11-27)
==================
* Add missing exception to __all__.
2.0 (2010-11-26)
================
* Package renamed to flufl.lock.
