Now it uses the new wait_for_condition testing primitive.
Also wait_for_condition implementation was fixed in this commit to properly
escape the expr command and its argument.

Two limits are added:

1) Up to SLOWLOG_ENTRY_MAX_ARGV arguments are logged.
2) Up to SLOWLOG_ENTRY_MAX_STRING bytes per argument are logged.
3) slowlog-max-len is set to 128 by default (was 1024).

The number of remaining arguments / bytes is logged in the entry
so that the user can understand better the nature of the logged command.

just fieldobj itself as sentinel of the fact a field object is used or
not, instead of using the filed length, that may be confusing both for
people and for the compiler emitting a warning.

lookupKeyByPattern() was implemented with a trick to speedup the lookup
process allocating two fake Redis obejcts on the stack. However now that
we propagate expires to the slave as DEL operations the lookup of the
key may result into a call to expireIfNeeded() having the stack
allocated object as argument, that may in turn use it to create the
protocol to send to the slave. But since this fake obejcts are
inherently read-only this is a problem.

As a side effect of this fix there are no longer size limits in the
pattern to be used with GET/BY option of SORT.

Structure field controlling the INFO field master_link_down_since_seconds initialized correctly to avoid strange INFO output at startup when a slave has yet to connect to its master.

a memory leak with replication on two or more dbs including >= db10

occurs when two or more dbs are replicated and at least one of them is >db10

Fix for slaves chains. Force resync of slaves (simply disconnecting them)  when SLAVEOF turns a master into a slave.

More memory tests implemented. Default number of iterations lowered to a more acceptable value of 50.

Number of iteration of --test-memory is now 300 (several minutes per gigabyte). Memtest86 and Memtester links are also displayed while running the test.

redis-benchmark: backported the more capable version from the unstable branch (pipelining,run selected tests,fixes)

centos) as well as debian/ubuntu

Fix for issue #306, thanks to tchajed (on github) for the pull request. The original patch was reworked a bit.

zzlIsInRange() now is capable of handling empty sorted sets that may end inside the data set when loading very old RDB files produced by early-stage versions of Redis.

Force SIGSEGV without HAVE_BACKTRACE (2.4)
