This is a starting point to add a documentation of the whole set of APIs and
classes of Predis. The next step will be to actually improve and extend it.
Now we check for the presence of the file "test/enable.tests" to enable the
test suite instead of relying on the value of a constant defined in PHP. In
this way we can prevent commiting an enabled test suite by mistake since the
above mentioned file is not tracked by Git (see .gitignore)..
The new string format for INFO replies has been postponed to a future version
of Redis, so we just moved the INFO class that handles them to the development
server profile.
Now Predis follows the same standard behaviour of PHP (method names are treated
case-insensitively) when invoking methods related to Redis commands, (i.e.
$client->info() or $client->INFO() makes no difference).
Commands in Redis are most time written in uppercase, Predis supports
only lowercase commands. This change converts all commands into lower-
case, so MiXeDcAsE and UPPERCASE commands can be created as well.
This makes it easier to use Predis in scripts and projects that do
not already include as PSR-0 autoloader.

At this moment predis is only capable of lowercase commands, the test
adds the requirement to provide both lowercase, uppercase (and even
mixed case) commands.
The script that is used to create a single file out of the whole repository can
now accept a list of classes (their full FQN is needed) that must be excluded
when generating the file. The list can be passed directly in the command line
(multiple -e parameters) or in text file that contains a class name on each
line (single -E parameter).
The script does also a basic check to ensure that the user is not excluding a
class that is referenced by other subclasses.
Composer is a package manager for PHP currently under development. You can find
details about Composer at the following URL http://github.com/composer/composer
Now classes that extend Predis\Distribution\HashRing can override how the hash
of a node is retrieved in order to implement different kind of distribution
strategies while reusing the base algorithm.
By default the cURL extension does not trigger any error when fetching a
response with an HTTP code >= 400. Changing this behaviour is also useful to
intercept the 403 error generated when executing Redis commands disallowed
on Webdis by using ACLs.
The cURL extension is easily found already packaged for various Linux
distributions, it provides everything needed and it seems to have a lower
overhead compared to pecl_http.
With Webdis it is possible to define some access control rules to allow or
disallow certain commands and one of the possible configurations is based on
plain old HTTP authentication.
