Supports `curl` or `native` (default). * Force stop with `colima stop --force` no longer attempts to stop the container runtime before stopping VM. * Support for user-provided containerd and buildkit config for the Containerd runtime. * Nested virtualization is now supported with `krunkit` vm type. * Soft delete (i.e. `colima delete` without `--force`) is now properly supported on Incus runtime, and container data would be auto-restored on recreation. * Cache directory can now be customized with the `COLIMA_CACHE_HOME` environment variable. The cache directory stores the downloaded assets used by Colima. * Network address is now supported for the `krunkit` vm type. * Runtime is now displayed in `colima list` for stopped instances. * Custom generated disk images can now be used by setting the `--force-disk-image` flag in addition to `--disk-image` flag. The image must be a debian based distro with systemd. **_Note that this is for power users and not officially supported_**. ###### Runtime version bumps **NOTE:** container runtime versions can be updated manually by running the `colima update` command. * Docker version updated to `v29.5.2` * Nerdctl version updated to `v2.3.1` * Incus version updated to `v7.1` ##### Commits * core: provide optional curl downloader. by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1519 * chore: clean up file downloader by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1520 * core: rework apple silicon device detection by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1526 * core: refactor container stop logic to support forced shutdown by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1527 * build(deps): bump actions/download-artifact from 7.0.0 to 8.0.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1528 * build(deps): bump actions/upload-artifact from 6.0.0 to 7.0.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1529 * build(deps): bump actions/setup-go from 6.2.0 to 6.3.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1530 * containerd: support user-provided containerd and buildkit config by @citadelgrad in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1523 * vm: enable nested virtualization for krunkit by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1531 * docs: add VM customization and update guide to FAQ by @citadelgrad in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1522 * core: rework host to guest file movements. by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1538 * Incus: support full restore after soft-delete by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1540 * build(deps): bump golang.org/x/term from 0.40.0 to 0.41.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1541 * core: make cache directory configurable by @reillylm in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1537 * build(deps): bump actions/download-artifact from 8.0.0 to 8.0.1 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1544 * build(deps): bump github.com/fatih/color from 1.18.0 to 1.19.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1546 * build(deps): bump actions/setup-go from 6.3.0 to 6.4.0 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1548 * core: update disk images by @abiosoft in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1554 * docs: update krunkit installation to reference upstream by @acelinkio in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1562 * net: support krunkit network.mode: shared by @acelinkio in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1560 * build(deps): bump actions/upload-artifact from 7.0.0 to 7.0.1 by @dependabot[bot] in https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/pull/1558 * build(deps): bump golang.org/x/term from 0.41.0 to 0.42.0 by @dependabot[bot] in ht _[Truncated at 4000 characters — full notes: https://github.com/abiosoft/colima/releases/tag/v0.10.2]_
