What's New is an index, not a publisher: every entry below links to the vendor's own release notes, which are the authoritative source. Entries are labelled where they are hand-curated sample data, pre-releases, or drawn from a secondary source such as a developer blog.

Reuse: the summaries, labels and curation here are © What's New. Quote freely with attribution and a link back; wholesale republication of the corpus is not permitted — terms: https://whatsnew.fyi/terms. The vendors' own release notes remain their publishers'.

- **added** — Add flag --no-require-git to always respect gitignore files
- **fixed** — Fix logic for when to use global ignore file where it was not processed in certain conditions without --no-ignore, --unrestricted, or --no-global-ignore-file flags

##### Features

- Add flag --no-require-git to always respect gitignore files, see #1216 (@vegerot)

##### Bugfixes

- Fix logic for when to use global ignore file. There was a bug where the only case where the
  global ignore file wasn't processed was if `--no-ignore` was passed, but neither `--unrestricted`
  nor `--no-global-ignore-file` is passed. See #1209
