MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 2864843 on 2016/02/12 by Ben.Marsh
Add individual 'status', 'outcome', and 'error_code' fields to parsed jobsteps. Should fix grid view not being able to display 'pending' icons.
Change 2865161 on 2016/02/12 by Ben.Marsh
Stop storing a reference to UEBuildTarget from UEBuildModule. It creates an awkward cyclic data dependency, and makes it easy for people to write lazy code that just reaches into the internal state of the build.
Change 2865643 on 2016/02/12 by Ben.Marsh
Rename UEBuildModuleType to UHTModuleType, and move implementation into ExternalExecution.
Change 2874408 on 2016/02/19 by Ben.Marsh
Automatically sort nodes in the dashboard grid view by a weight derived from the node's order in the build graph, summed across all the jobs in which it was present.
Change 2879572 on 2016/02/24 by Ben.Marsh
Allow spoofing a Git merge from a given commit, using a changelist description containing the tag "git merge <branch> <changelist>", where <branch> is the name of a branch on Git (eg. master, 4.11, etc..), and <changelist> is the changelist being merged in.
Change 2883216 on 2016/02/26 by Ben.Marsh
Prevent Jira tickets being incorrectly updated with 'Main CL' fields which are after the 'Fix CL' fields.
Change 2883755 on 2016/02/26 by Ben.Marsh
Fix solution files having a Shipping configuration, even when -NoShippingConfigs is passed on the command line.
Change 2886223 on 2016/02/29 by Ben.Marsh
Ignore SignTool errors - we can recover from them.
Change 2887414 on 2016/03/01 by Ben.Marsh
Dump all the *.crash files produced while running commandlets, to make it easier to diagnose build system crashes cooking on Mac.
Change 2888235 on 2016/03/01 by Ben.Marsh
Add overloads for methods in FileFilter which take FileReference and DirectoryReference objects.
Change 2889602 on 2016/03/02 by Ben.Marsh
Treat shaders as code in UGS. Don't sync them as part of content-only syncs, and don't allow syncing past them without updated binaries.
Change 2889610 on 2016/03/02 by Ben.Marsh
Fix setting for using incremental builds not being saved. Also hide command to do incremental builds if the 'use incremental builds' option is not checked.
Change 2891866 on 2016/03/03 by Matthew.Griffin
Removed Rocket specific batch files and made sure installed build won't try to include them
Removed last use of RocketGenerateProjectFiles.sh by using UBT directly instead
Change 2893349 on 2016/03/03 by Ben.Marsh
Add derived ReplicatedBranch to support mirroring the VR editor branch to GitHub.
Change 2894703 on 2016/03/04 by Ben.Marsh
Include *.usf when looking for the last code changelist. Also update version to 1.68.
Change 2897991 on 2016/03/07 by Ben.Marsh
Copy the changelist number to the clipboard when the user presses Ctrl-C. Update version number to 1.69.
Change 2898005 on 2016/03/07 by Ben.Marsh
Minor changes to support BuildGraph:
* UE4Build now has a static function that can update version files.
* Adding FileReference/DirectoryReference methods to FileFilter and CommandUtils.
* FileFilter treats any pattern containing a slash as implictly starting from the root directory, unless it begins with "...".
Change 2898095 on 2016/03/07 by Ben.Marsh
UAT - Don't retry builds if we're using local executor; we don't encounter failures due to timeouts.
Change 2898248 on 2016/03/07 by Ben.Marsh
UBT - Add the standard game include paths back in to plugin modules. Existing game code relies on this.
Change 2898615 on 2016/03/08 by Matthew.Griffin
Removed last uses of RunningRocket function
All seemed to be overly cautious about people using an Installed build to do non standard things, don't see any ill effects in the most common circumstances.
Change 2898681 on 2016/03/08 by Matthew.Griffin
Removed Automation.RunningRocket function as there are no more uses
Changed the majority of comments referencing Rocket mode that are now either about the engine being installed or from the Launcher etc.

Change 2718441 on 2015/10/06 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Allow nodes to be added with an "explicit" frequency, meaning that they'll only be part of manually triggered builds (not CIS).
Change 2718698 on 2015/10/06 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Add a type of node that can execute an arbitrary sequence of tasks, and allow constructing graphs of such nodes from an XML file.
Change 2723013 on 2015/10/09 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Small utility to quickly capture a workspace, or delete files to restore the workspace to a previously captured state (and output a p4 sync list to restore it)
Change 2744521 on 2015/10/28 by Matthew.Griffin@Matthew.Griffin_G5772_BuildStream
Adding config entries to determine which platforms/configurations are available
Currently only written out as part of the Rocket Build process but could be done elsewhere for other types of installed build.
A near identical singleton class is used in both C++ and C# to load the config section and check whether configuration/platform combinations are valid.
Change 2773723 on 2015/11/19 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Copying UnrealGameSync into Engine/Source/Programs.
Change 2773914 on 2015/11/19 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
PR #1687: [GitDependencies] New feature: ignore file support (.gitdepsignore) (Contributed by nbjk667)
Change 2775317 on 2015/11/20 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Add a -listtps option to UBT, which will find all the TPS files in any directory that's compiled into a target.
Change 2780832 on 2015/11/25 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Allow compiling a single file in UBT. Pass -singlefile=<Path> on command line to UBT to use.
Change 2781071 on 2015/11/25 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Precompile all valid engine modules for Rocket by default. Modules may set the PrecompileForTargets field to control which configurations they should be compiled for. Modules which currently fail to compile have this set to
PrecompileTargetsType.None.
#codereview Matthew.Griffin
Change 2784469 on 2015/12/01 by Matthew.Griffin@Matthew.Griffin_G5772_BuildStream
Added -FastPDB commandline parameter for UBT, so that we can make use of the /DEBUG:FASTLINK option in VS2015
Change 2784722 on 2015/12/01 by Matthew.Griffin@Matthew.Griffin_G5772_BuildStream
Made -FastPDB option part of BuildConfiguration instead of checking commandline at each place it's used. Also added option to override if someone doesn't want it automatically added to their project files.
Change 2787501 on 2015/12/02 by Ben.Marsh@Ben.Marsh_T3245_Stream
Restore change to gather VC environment directly from registry.

Change 2717513 on 2015/10/06 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert_Manuszewski_EGUK_M1
GC and WeakObjectPtr performance optimizations.
- Moved some of the EObjectFlags to EInternalObjectFlags and merged them with FUObjectArray
- Moved WeakObjectPtr serial numbersto FUObjectArray
- Added pre-allocated UObject array
Change 2716517 on 2015/10/05 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert_Manuszewski_EGUK_M1
Make SavePackage thread safe UObject-wise so that StaticFindObject etc can't run in parallel when packages are being saved.
Change 2721142 on 2015/10/08 by Mikolaj.Sieluzycki@Dev-Core_D0920
UHT will now use makefiles to speed up iterative runs.
Change 2726320 on 2015/10/13 by Jaroslaw.Palczynski@jaroslaw.palczynski_D1732_2963
Hot-reload performance optimizations:
1. Got rid of redundant touched BPs optimization (which was necessary before major HR fixes submitted earlier).
2. Parallelized search for old CDOs referencers.
Change 2759032 on 2015/11/09 by Graeme.Thornton@GThornton_DesktopMaster
Dependency preloading improvements
- Asset registry dependencies now resolve asset redirectors
- Rearrange runtime loading to put dependency preloads within BeginLoad/EndLoad for the source package

Unnecessary allocation removed when loading empty files in FFileHelper::LoadFileToString.
Change 2762632 on 2015/11/11 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
Some TSet function optimisations:
Avoiding unnecessary hashing of function arguments if the container is empty (rather than the hash being empty, which is not necessarily equivalent).
Taking local copies of HashSize during iterations.
Change 2762936 on 2015/11/11 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
BulkData zero byte allocations are now handled by an RAII object which owns the memory.
Change 2765758 on 2015/11/13 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
FName::operator== and != optimised to be a single comparison.
Change 2757195 on 2015/11/06 by Jaroslaw.Surowiec@Stream.1.JarekSurowiec

Misc cleanups in some module reload code.

[CL 2557832 by Steve Robb in Main branch]
Newly installed versions of the engine will now attempt to copy the project-agnostic config settings from a previous engine installation. This happens by way of a versioned manifest that copies old versions when the manifest does not exist, or is a different version. This code path is benign for non-installed versions of the engine (or FPaths::ShouldSaveToUserDir() is false).
EditorGameAgnosticSettings and EditorUserSettings ini paths have been renamed to EditorSettings and EditorPerProjectUserSettings respectively to better convey their purpose. In general, most settings should be saved in EditorSettings (project-agnostic) so that they apply regardless of which project is open. We have some way to go migrating existing settings for this to be the case, however.
Some previously per-project configuration files are now project-agnostic (such as Editor.ini, EditorKeyBindings.ini, and EditorLayout.ini)
GEditor->Access...Settings and GEditor->Get...Settings have been removed in favor of direct access of the CDO through GetMutableDefault<> and GetDefault<> respectively. Global config ini filenames that are not set up are now neither loaded nor saved on build machines, to handle the problem of indeterminate state more generically.
This addresses UETOOL-270 (Most editor preferences should be project-agnostic)
[CL 2517558 by Andrew Rodham in Main branch]
We already had FPlatformProcess::CreateProc/CloseProc pair (which is part of larger set with WaitForProc(), TerminateProc(), GetProcReturnCode(), etc). FProcHandle::Close() made the API more confusing (and actually introduced bugs, because it did not call CloseProc() until recently).

[CL 2476322 by Dmitry Rekman in Main branch]
Stopped the "Compiling C++ Code" message in the editor MainFrame always having a cancel button
FModuleCompilerStartedEvent now passes a bool to say whether the hot-reload/compile operation is being run async, or whether it's blocking. We now only show the cancel button for async compiles, as the UI is otherwise blocked waiting for the compile to finish.
Added a bWaitForCompletion input parameter to DoHotReloadFromEditor. This mirrors the RebindPackages API that DoHotReloadFromEditor internally calls, and prevents UPackFactory needing to perform a manual tick.
[CL 2437789 by Matthew Griffin in Main branch]
Made sure that FHotReloadModule still reported slow task progress while stuck in a busy loop
