# Changelog
## v2.15.7 - 2024-05-12
Release notes:
* This release fixes potential bugs.
* The hash that Stack uses to distinguish one build plan from another has
changed for plans that set (as opposed to unset) manually Cabal flags for
immutable dependencies. This will cause Stack to rebuild dependencies for such
plans.
**Changes since v2.15.5:**
Major changes:
* Stack 2.15.5 and earlier cannot build with Cabal (the library) version
`3.12.0.0`. Stack can now build with that Cabal version.
Behavior changes:
* Stack's `StackSetupShim` executable, when called with `repl` and
`stack-initial-build-steps`, no longer uses Cabal's `replHook` to apply
`initialBuildSteps` but takes a more direct approach.
Bug fixes:
* Fix a regression introduced in Stack 2.15.1 that caused a 'no operation'
`stack build` to be slower than previously.
* The hashes that Stack uses to distinguish one build plan from another now
include the Cabal flags for immutable dependencies set manually. Previously,
in error, only such flags that were unset manually were included.
## v2.15.5 - 2024-03-28
Release notes:
* This release fixes potential bugs.
**Changes since v2.15.3:**
Behavior changes:
* Following the handover of the Stackage project to the Haskell Foundation, the
default value of the `urls` key is
`latest-snapshot: https://stackage-haddock.haskell.org/snapshots.json`.
* Stack no longer includes the snapshot package database when compiling the
setup executable for a package with `build-type: Configure`.
## v2.15.3 - 2024-03-07
Release notes:
* With one exception, this release fixes bugs.
**Changes since v2.15.1:**
Behavior changes:
* `stack path --global-config`, `--programs`, and `--local-bin` no longer set
up Stack's environment.
Bug fixes:
* Due to a bug, Stack 2.15.1 did not support versions of GHC before 8.2. Stack
now supports GHC versions from 8.0.
* `--haddock-for-hackage` does not ignore `--haddock-arguments`.
* On Windows, package locations that are Git repositories with submodules now
work as intended.
* The `ghc`, `runghc` and `runhaskell` commands accept `--package` values that
are a list of package names or package identifiers separated by spaces and, in
the case of package identifiers, in the same way as if they were specified as
targets to `stack build`.
## v2.15.1 - 2024-02-09
Release notes:
* After an upgrade from an earlier version of Stack, on first use only,
Stack 2.15.1 may warn that it had trouble loading the CompilerPaths cache.
* The hash used as a key for Stack's pre-compiled package cache has changed,
following the dropping of support for Cabal versions older than `1.24.0.0`.
**Changes since v2.13.1:**
Behavior changes:
* Stack does not leave `*.hi` or `*.o` files in the `setup-exe-src` directory of
the Stack root, and deletes any corresponding to a `setup-<hash>.hs` or
`setup-shim-<hash>.hs` file, to avoid GHC issue
[#21250](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/21250).
* If Stack's Nix integration is not enabled, Stack will notify the user if a
`nix` executable is on the PATH. This usually indicates the Nix package
manager is available. In YAML configuration files, the `notify-if-nix-on-path`
key is introduced, to allow the notification to be muted if unwanted.
* Drop support for Intero (end of life in November 2019).
* `stack path --stack-root` no longer sets up Stack's environment and does not
load Stack's configuration.
* Stack no longer locks on configuration, so packages (remote and local) can
be configured in parallel. This increases the effective concurrency of builds
that before would use fewer threads. Reconsider your `--jobs` setting
accordingly. See [#84](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/84).
* Stack warns that its support for Cabal versions before `2.2.0.0` is deprecated
and may be removed in the next version of Stack. Removal would mean that
projects using snapshots earlier than `lts-12.0` or `nightly-2018-03-18`
(GHC 8.4.1) might no longer build. See
[#6377](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/6377).
* If Stack's `--resolver` option is not specified, Stack's `unpack` command with
a package name will seek to update the package index before seeking to
download the most recent version of the package in the index.
* If the version of Cabal (the library) provided with the specified GHC can copy
specific components, Stack will copy only the components built and will not
build all executable components at least once.
Other enhancements:
* Consider GHC 9.8 to be a tested compiler and remove warnings.
* Stack can build packages with dependencies on public sub-libraries of other
packages.
* Add flag `--no-init` to Stack's `new` command to skip the initialisation of
the newly-created project for use with Stack.
* The HTML file paths produced at the end of `stack haddock` are printed on
separate lines and without a trailing dot.
* Add option of the form `--doctest-option=<argument>` to `stack build`, where
`doctest` is a program recognised by versions of the Cabal library from
`1.24.0.0`.
* Experimental: Add flag `--haddock-for-hackage` to Stack's `build` command
(including the `haddock` synonym for `build --haddock`) to enable building
project packages with flags to generate Haddock documentation, and an archive
file, suitable for upload to Hackage. The form of the Haddock documentation
generated for other packages is unaffected.
* Experimental: Add flag `--documentation` (`-d` for short) to Stack's `upload`
command to allow uploading of documentation for packages to Hackage.
* `stack new` no longer rejects project templates that specify a `package.yaml`
in a subdirectory of the project directory.
* Stack will notify the user if Stack has not been tested with the version of
GHC that is being user or a version of Cabal (the library) that has been
found. In YAML configuration files, the `notify-if-ghc-untested` and
`notify-if-cabal-untested` keys are introduced, to allow the notification to
be muted if unwanted.
* The compiler version is included in Stack's build message (e.g.
`stack> build (lib + exe + test) with ghc-9.6.4`).
* Add flag `--candidate` to Stack's `unpack` command, to allow package
candidates to be unpacked locally.
* Stack will notify the user if a specified architecture value is unknown to
Cabal (the library). In YAML configuration files, the `notify-if-arch-unknown`
key is introduced, to allow the notification to be muted if unwanted.
* Add option `--filter <item>` to Stack's `ls dependencies text` command to
filter out an item from the results, if present. The item can be `$locals` for
all project packages.
* Add option `--snapshot` as synonym for `--resolver`.
* Add the `config set snapshot` command, corresponding to the
`config set resolver` command.
Bug fixes:
* Fix the `Curator` instance of `ToJSON`, as regards `expect-haddock-failure`.
* Better error message if a `resolver:` or `snapshot:` value is, in error, a
YAML number.
* Stack accepts all package names that are, in fact, acceptable to Cabal.
* Stack's `sdist` command can check packages with names that include non-ASCII
characters.
## v2.13.1 - 2023-09-29
Release notes:
* Further to the release notes for Stack 2.3.1, the `-static` suffix has been
removed from the statically linked Linux/x86_64 binaries.
* The binaries for Linux/Aarch64 are now statically linked.
* Binaries are now provided for macOS/AArch64.
**Changes since v2.11.1:**
Behavior changes:
* Build artefacts are placed in `.stack-work/dist/<platform>/<GHC_version>`
(hashed to a shorter path on Windows), rather than
`.stack-work/dist/<platform>/<Cabal_version>`. This allows build artifacts to
be distinguished by GHC version.
* By default, the `stack build` progress bar is capped to a length equal to the
terminal width.
* When building GHC from source, Stack no longer uses Hadrian's deprecated
`--configure`\\`-c` flag and, instead, seeks to run GHC's Python `boot` and
sh `configure` scripts, and ensure that the `happy` and `alex` executables are
on the PATH.
* When auto-detecting `--ghc-build` on Linux, the `musl` GHC build only is
considered a possible GHC build if `libc.musl-x86_64.so.1` is found in `\lib`
or `\lib64`.
* No longer supports Cabal versions older than `1.24.0.0`. This means projects
using snapshots earlier than `lts-7.0` or `nightly-2016-05-26` (GHC 8.0.1)
will no longer build. GHC 8.0.1 comes with Haddock 2.17.2.
* When unregistering many packages in a single step, Stack can now do that
efficiently. Stack no longer uses GHC-supplied `ghc-pkg unregister` (which is,
currently, slower).
* `stack hpc report`, `stack list`, `stack templates` and `stack uninstall`
output their information to the standard output stream rather than to the
standard error stream. Logging is still to the standard error stream.
* `stack upgrade` no longer assumes that binary upgrade is not supported on a
AArch64 machine architecture.
Other enhancements:
* Consider GHC 9.6 to be a tested compiler and remove warnings.
* Consider Cabal 3.10 to be a tested library and remove warnings.
* Bump to Hpack 0.36.0.
* Depend on `pantry-0.9.2`, for support for long filenames and directory names
in archives created by `git archive`.
* Avoid the duplicate resolving of usage files when parsing `*.hi` files into a
set of modules and a collection of resolved usage files. See
[#6123](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/6123).
* Add composable component type flags `--exes`, `--tests` and `--benchmarks` to
Stack's `ide targets` command, to list only those components.
* `stack --verbose` excludes lengthy information about build plan construction
in the debug output by default. The new `stack --[no-]plan-in-log` flag
enables or disables the inclusion of the information in the debug output.
* In YAML configuration files, the `casa` key is introduced, which takes
precedence over the existing `casa-repo-prefix` key. The latter is deprecated.
The new key also allows Stack's use of a Casa (content-addressable storage
archive) server to be disabled and the maximum number of keys per request to
be configured. The default Casa prefix references https://casa.stackage.org,
instead of https://casa.fpcomplete.com.
* Add option `--progress-bar=<format>` to Stack's `build` command to configure
the format of the progress bar, where `<format>` is one of `none`,
`count-only` (only the package count), `capped` (capped to a length equal to
the terminal width) and `full` (the previous format).
Bug fixes:
* Restore `stack sdist --pvp-bounds lower` (broken with Stack 2.9.1).
* Restore building of Stack with Cabal flag `disable-git-info` (broken with
Stack 2.11.1).
* With `stack hoogle`, avoid the message
`Minimum version is hoogle-5.0. Found acceptable hoogle-<x.y.z> in your index, requiring its installation.`
when a `hoogle` executable has already been found on the `PATH`.
* Stack's sanity check on a selected GHC now passes GHC flag
`-hide-all-packages`, stopping GHC from looking for a package environment in
default locations.
* Restore Stack script files without extensions (broken with Stack 2.11.1).
* Restore message suffix `due to warnings` with `dump-logs: warning` (broken
with Stack 2.11.1).
* On Windows, the `local-programs-path` directory can now be on a different
drive to the system temporary directory and MSYS2 will still be installed.
## v2.11.1 - 2023-05-18
**Changes since v2.9.3:**
Behavior changes:
* Add flag `--[no-]-only-local-bin` to Stack's `upgrade` command for a binary
upgrade. If the Stack executable is `my-stack`, the default is
`my-stack upgrade --only-local-bin` where previously it was, effectively,
`my-stack upgrade --no-only-local-bin`. If the Stack executable is `stack`,
the default is `stack upgrade --no-only-local-bin`, the same behaviour as
previously.
* Use `$XDG_CACHE_HOME/stack/ghci-script`, rather than
`<temp>/haskell-stack-ghci` (where `<temp>` is the directory yielded by the
`temporary` package's `System.IO.Temp.getCanonicalTemporaryDirectory`), as the
base location for GHCi script files generated by `stack ghci` or `stack repl`.
See [#5203](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5203)
* Drop support for `Cabal` versions before 1.22 and, consequently, GHC versions
before 7.10.
* `stack ghci` and `stack repl` now take into account the values of
`default-language` keys in Cabal files, like they take into account the values
of `default-extensions` keys.
* Removed `--ghc-paths`, `--global-stack-root` and `--local-bin-path` flags for
`stack path`, deprecated in Stack 1.1.0 in favour of `--programs`,
`--stack-root` and `local-bin` respectively.
* On Windows, `stack upgrade` always renames the file of the running Stack
executable (adding extension `.old`) before attempting to write to the
original file name.
* On Windows, `stack upgrade` does not offer `sudo` command alternatives if
attempting to write to the original file name of the running Stack exectuable
results in a 'Permission' error.
Other enhancements:
* Add options of the form `--PROG-option=<argument>` to `stack build`, where
`PROG` is a program recognised by the Cabal library and one of `alex`, `ar`,
`c2hs`, `cpphs`, `gcc`, `greencard`, `happy`, `hsc2hs`, `hscolour`, `ld`,
`pkg-config`, `strip` and `tar`. If Cabal uses the program during the
configuration step, the argument is passed to it.
* By default all `--PROG-option` options are applied to all project packages.
This behaviour can be changed with new configuration option
`apply-prog-options`.
* Add flag `--[no-]use-root` to `stack script` (default disabled). Used with
`--compile` or `--optimize`, when enabled all compilation outputs (including
the executable) are written to a script-specific location in the `scripts`
directory of the Stack root rather than the script's directory, avoiding
clutter of the latter directory.
* Better error message if the value of the `STACK_WORK` environment variable or
`--work-dir` option is not a valid relative path.
* Stack will use the value of the `GH_TOKEN`, or `GITHUB_TOKEN`, environment
variable as credentials to authenticate its GitHub REST API requests.
* `stack uninstall` also shows how to uninstall Stack-supplied tools.
Bug fixes:
* Fix incorrect warning if `allow-newer-deps` are specified but `allow-newer` is
`false`. See
[#6068](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/6086).
* `stack build` with `--file-watch` or `--file-watch-poll` outputs 'pretty'
error messages, as intended. See
[#5978](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5978).
* `stack build` unregisters any project packages for the sub libraries of a
project package that is to be unregistered. See
[#6046](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/6046).
* The warning that sublibrary dependency is not supported is no longer triggered
by internal libraries.
## v2.9.3.1 - 2023-06-22
Hackage-only release of the `stack` package:
* Supports building against snapshot Stackage LTS Haskell 21.0 (GHC 9.4.5),
without extra-deps.
* Supports build with `persistent-2.14.5.0`, using CPP directives.
* Supports build with `unix-compat-0.7`, by removing reliance on the module
`System.PosixCompat.User` removed in that package.
* Includes `cabal.project` and `cabal.config` files in the package.
## v2.9.3 - 2022-12-16
**Changes since v2.9.1:**
Behavior changes:
* In YAML configuration files, the `package-index` key is introduced which takes
precedence over the existing `package-indices` key. The latter is deprecated.
* In YAML configuration files, the `hackage-security` key of the `package-index`
key or the `package-indices` item can be omitted, and the Hackage Security
configuration for the item will default to that for the official Hackage
server. See [#5870](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5870).
* Add the `stack config set package-index download-prefix` command to set the
location of Stack's package index in YAML configuration files.
* `stack setup` with the `--no-install-ghc` flag warns that the flag and the
command are inconsistent and now takes no action. Previously the flag was
silently ignored.
* To support the Haskell Foundation's
[Haskell Error Index](https://errors.haskell.org/) initiative, all Stack
error messages generated by Stack itself begin with an unique code in the
form `[S-nnnn]`, where `nnnn` is a four-digit number.
* Test suite executables that seek input on the standard input stream (`stdin`)
will not throw an exception. Previously, they would thow an exception,
consistent with Cabal's 'exitcode-stdio-1.0' test suite interface
specification. Pass the flag `--no-tests-allow-stdin` to `stack build` to
enforce Cabal's specification. See
[#5897](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5897)
Other enhancements:
* Help documentation for `stack upgrade` warns that if GHCup is used to install
Stack, only GHCup should be used to upgrade Stack. That is because GHCup uses
an executable named `stack` to manage versions of Stack, that Stack will
likely overwrite on upgrade.
* Add `stack ls dependencies cabal` command, which lists dependencies in the
format of exact Cabal constraints.
* Add `STACK_XDG` environment variable to use the XDG Base Directory
Specification for the Stack root and Stack's global YAML configuration file,
if the Stack root location is not set on the command line or by using the
`STACK_ROOT` environment variable.
* Add `stack path --global-config`, to yield the full path of Stack's
user-specific global YAML configuration file (`config.yaml`).
* Experimental: Add option `allow-newer-deps`, which allows users to specify a
subset of dependencies for which version bounds should be ignored
(`allow-newer-deps: ['foo', 'bar']`). This field has no effect unless
`allow-newer` is enabled.
Bug fixes:
* Fix ambiguous module name `Distribution.PackageDescription`, if compiling
`StackSetupShim` with `Cabal-syntax-3.8.1.0` in package database. See
[#5886](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5886).
* In YAML configuration files, if the `package-indices` key (or the
`hackage-security` key of its item) is omitted, the expiration of timestamps
is now ignored, as intended. See Pantry
[#63](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/pantry/pull/63)
## v2.9.1 - 2022-09-19
**Changes since v2.7.5:**
Release notes:
* After an upgrade from an earlier version of Stack, on first use only,
Stack 2.9.1 may warn that it had trouble loading the CompilerPaths cache.
* The support from the Stack team for binary releases now includes Linux/AArch64
and is limited to:
* Linux 64-bit/x86_64 (statically linked)
* Linux AArch64 (dynamically linked)
* macOS x86_64
* Windows 64-bit/x86_64
Behavior changes:
* `stack build --coverage` will generate a unified coverage report, even if
there is only one `*.tix` file, in case a package has tested the library of
another package that has not tested its own library. See
[#5713](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5713)
* `stack --verbose` no longer includes the lengthy raw snapshot layer (rsl) in
the debug output by default. The new `stack --[no-]rsl-in-log` flag enables or
disables the inclusion of the rsl in the debug output.
Other enhancements:
* Consider GHC 9.2 and 9.4 to be tested compilers and remove warnings.
* Consider Cabal 3.6 and 3.8 to be a tested libraries and remove warnings.
* Bump to Hpack 0.35.0.
* On Windows, the installer now sets `DisplayVersion` in the registry, enabling
tools like `winget` to properly read the version number.
* Adds flag `--script-no-run-compile` (disabled by default) that uses the
`--no-run` option with `stack script` (and forces the `--compile` option).
This enables a command like `stack --script-no-run-compile Script.hs` to
behave like `stack script <arguments> --no-run --compile -- Script.hs` but
without having to list all the `<arguments>` in the Stack interpreter options
comment in `Script.hs` on the command line. That may help test that scripts
compile in CI (continuous integration). See
[#5755](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5755)
* Fuller help is provided at the command line if a subcommand is missing (for
example, `stack ls` now yields the equivalent of `stack ls --help`). See
[#809](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/809)
* Add build option `--cabal-verbosity=VERBOSITY` to specify the Cabal verbosity
level (the option accepts Cabal's numerical and extended syntax).
See [#1369](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/809)
* Add the possibility of a `sh` script to customise fully GHC installation. See
[#5585](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5585)
* `tools` subcommand added to `stack ls`, to list stack's installed tools.
* `stack uninstall` shows how to uninstall Stack.
* `--ghc-variant` accepts `int-native` as a variant.
Bug fixes:
* Fix `stack clean --full`, so that the files to be deleted are not in use. See
[#5714](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5714)
* Fix an inconsistency in the pretty formatting of the output of
`stack build --coverage`
* Fix repeated warning about missing parameters when using `stack new`
* Include `pantry-0.5.6`: Remove operational and mirror keys from bootstrap key
set [#53](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/pantry/pull/53)
* Pass any CPP options specified via `cpp-options:` in the Cabal file to GHCi
using GHC's `-optP` flag. See
[#5608](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5608)
* On Unix-like operating systems, respect the `with-gcc` option when installing
GHC. See [#5609](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5609)
* Fixed logic in `get_isa()` in `get-stack.sh` to exclude systems that don't
have x86 in their `uname -m` output. See
[5792](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5792).
* Fixed output of `stack ls snapshots local` on Windows, to behave like that on
Unix-like operating systems.
* Fix non-deterministic test failures when executing a test suite for a
multi-project repository with parallelism enabled. See
[#5024](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5024)
## v2.7.5 - 2022-03-06
**Changes since v2.7.3:**
Behavior changes:
* Cloning git repositories isn't per sub-directory anymore, see
[#5411](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5411)
Other enhancements:
* `stack setup` supports installing GHC for macOS aarch64 (M1)
* `stack upload` supports authentication with a Hackage API key (via
`HACKAGE_KEY` environment variable).
Bug fixes:
* Ensure that `extra-path` works for case-insensitive `PATH`s on Windows.
See [rio#237](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/rio/pull/237)
* Fix handling of overwritten `ghc` and `ghc-pkg` locations.
[#5597](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5597)
* Fix failure to find package when a dependency is shared between projects.
[#5680](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5680)
* `stack ghci` now uses package flags in `stack.yaml`
[#5434](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5434)
## v2.7.3 - 2021-07-20
**Changes since v2.7.1:**
Other enhancements:
* `stack upgrade` will download from `haskellstack.org` before trying
`github.com`. See
[#5288](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5288)
* `stack upgrade` makes less assumptions about archive format. See
[#5288](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5288)
* Add a `--no-run` flag to the `script` command when compiling.
Bug fixes:
* GHC source builds work properly for recent GHC versions again. See
[#5528](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5528)
* `stack setup` always looks for the unpacked directory name to support
different tar file naming conventions. See
[#5545](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5545)
* Bump `pantry` version for better OS support. See
[pantry#33](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/pantry/issues/33)
* When building the sanity check for a new GHC install, make sure to clear
`GHC_PACKAGE_PATH`.
* Specifying GHC RTS flags in the `stack.yaml` no longer fails with an error.
[#5568](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5568)
* `stack setup` will look in sandboxed directories for executables, not
relying on `findExecutables. See
[GHC issue 20074](https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/20074)
* Track changes to `setup-config` properly to avoid reconfiguring on every
change. See
[#5578](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5578)
## v2.7.1 - 2021-05-07
**Changes since v2.5.1.1:**
Behavior changes:
* `stack repl` now always warns about GHCi problems with loading multiple
packages. It also sets now proper working directory when invoked with
one package. See
[#5421](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5421)
* `custom-setup` dependencies are now properly initialized for `stack dist`.
This makes `explicit-setup-deps` no longer required and that option was
removed. See
[#4006](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4006)
Other enhancements:
* Consider GHC 9.0 to be a tested compiler and remove warnings.
* Consider Cabal 3.6 to be a tested library and remove warnings.
* Nix integration now passes `ghcVersion` (in addition to existing `ghc`) to
`shell-file` as an identifier that can be looked up in a compiler attribute
set.
* Nix integration now allows Nix integration if the user is ready in nix-shell.
This gets rid of "In Nix shell but reExecL is False" error.
* `stack list` is a new command to list package versions in a snapshot.
See [#5431](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5431)
* `custom-preprocessor-extensions` is a new configuration option for allowing
Stack to be aware of any custom preprocessors you have added to `Setup.hs`.
See [#3491](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3491)
* Added `--candidate` flag to `upload` command to upload a package candidate
rather than publishing the package.
* Error output using `--no-interleaved-output` no longer prepends indenting
whitespace. This allows emacs compilation-mode and vim quickfix to locate
and track errors. See
[#5523](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5523)
Bug fixes:
* `stack new` now supports branches other than `master` as default for GitHub
repositories. See
[#5422](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5422)
* Ignore all errors from `hi-file-parser`. See
[#5445](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5445) and
[#5486](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5486).
* Support basic auth in package-indices. See
[#5509](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5509).
* Add support for parsing `.hi`. files from GHC 8.10 and 9.0. See
[hi-file-parser#2](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/hi-file-parser/pull/2).
## v2.5.1.1 - 2020-12-09
Hackage-only release:
* Support build with persistent-2.11.x and optparse-applicative-0.16.x
## v2.5.1 - 2020-10-15
**Changes since v2.3.3**
Major changes:
* Add the `snapshot-location-base` yaml configuration option, which allows to
override the default location of snapshot configuration files. This option
affects how snapshot synonyms (LTS/Nightly) are expanded to URLs by the
`pantry` library.
* `docker-network` configuration key added to override docker `--net` arg
Behavior changes:
* File watching now takes into account specified targets, old behavior could be
restored using the new flag `--watch-all`
[#5310](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5310)
Other enhancements:
* `stack ls dependencies json` now includes fields `sha256` and `size` for
dependencies of `type` `archive` in `location`.
[#5280](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5280)
* Build failures now show a hint to scroll up to the corresponding section
[#5279](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5279)
* Customisable output styles (see `stack --help` and the `--stack-colors`
option, and `stack ls stack-colors --help`) now include `info`, `debug`,
`other-level`, `secondary` and `highlight`, used with verbose output.
Bug fixes:
* Fix `stack test --coverage` when using Cabal 3
* `stack new` now generates PascalCase'd module name correctly.
[#5376](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5376)
* Connection issues to Casa server no longer cause builds to failure. Casa acts
only as an optimizing cache layer, not a critical piece of infrastructure.
* Fix modified time busting caches by always calculating sha256 digest during
the build process.

## v2.3.3 - 2020-08-06
**Changes since v2.3.1**
Other enhancements:
* Add the `stack-developer-mode` flag
Bug fixes:
* When using the `STACK_YAML` env var with Docker, make the path absolute.
* Fix the problem of `stack repl foo:test:bar` failing without a project build
before that. See
[#5213](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5213)
* Fix `stack sdist` introducing unnecessary sublibrary syntax when using
pvp-bounds. See
[#5289](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5289)
## v2.3.1 - 2020-04-29
Release notes:
* We have reduced the number of platforms that we support with binary releases.
The reason behind this is that we've been slowed down in our release process
until now with issues trying to build binaries for less common platforms. In
order to make sure we can address issues more quickly (like supporting new GHC
versions), we're limiting support from the Stack team to:
* Linux 64-bit/x86_64 (statically linked)
* macOS x86_64
* Windows 64-bit/x86_64
If others want to provide additional binaries, we will definitely be happy for
the support. But since our CI system is currently able to produce these three
bindists only, that's what we will be providing with the next release.
* Since we no longer have dynamically linked Linux binaries, we are removing the
`-static` suffix from the static Linux/x86_64 binaries. If you have scripts to
download the latest stable Linux/x86_64 binary, update them to use
`linux-x86_64` instead of `linux-x86_64-static` (if you are already using the
former, nothing needs to change). For this release, both are supported, but
the next release will no longer have the `-static` variant.
* We are also deprecating the download links at https://stackage.org/stack. See
this page for the current installation instructions:
https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/.
* These are the canonical locations to download the latest stable binaries from,
and will continue to be supported going forward:
* Linux 64-bit/x86_64 (static):
https://get.haskellstack.org/stable/linux-x86_64.tar.gz
* macOS x86_64: https://get.haskellstack.org/stable/osx-x86_64.tar.gz
* Windows 64-bit/x86_64:
https://get.haskellstack.org/stable/windows-x86_64.zip
As always, binaries for specific versions are available from the GitHub
releases: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/releases.
**Changes since v2.1.3.1**
Major changes:
* `setup-info-locations` yaml configuration now allows overwriting the default
locations of `stack-setup-2.yaml`.
[#5031](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5031)
[#2983](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2983)
[#2913](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2913)
* The `setup-info` configuration key now allows overwriting parts of the default
`setup-info`
* The `--setup-info-yaml` command line flag now may be used in all Stack
commands such as `stack build`, and not only in `stack setup`
* The `--setup-info-yaml` may specify multiple locations for `stack-setup.yaml`
files.
* The `stack upload` can read first reads environment Variable
`$HACKAGE_USERNAME` and `$HACKAGE_PASSWORD` if they are missing only then asks
for `username` or `password`
* Fully remove GHCJS support.
* Remove the `freeze` command. It has been replaced by lock files.
Behavior changes:
* Remove the deprecated `--stack-setup-yaml` command line argument in favor of
`--setup-info-yaml`. See
[#2647](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2647)
* We now recommend checking in generated Cabal files for repos. When generating
lock files for extra-deps that only include `package.yaml` files, a
deprecation warning will be generated. Also, those packages will no longer be
included in the generated lock files. See
[#5210](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5210).
Other enhancements:
* Add `build-output-timestamps` flag in yaml. Setting it to true prefixes each
build log output line with a timestamp.
* Show warning about `local-programs-path` with spaces on windows when running
scripts. See
[#5013](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/5013)
* Add `ls dependencies json` which will print dependencies as JSON.
`ls dependencies --tree` is now `ls dependencies tree`. See
[#4424](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4424)
* Remove warning for using Stack with GHC 8.8-8.10, and Cabal 3.0-3.2.
* Allow relative paths in `--setup-info-yaml` and tool paths
[#3394](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3394)
* Added the `--only-locals` flag. See
[#5272](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5272)
Bug fixes:
* Upgrade `pantry`: module mapping insertions into the database are now atomic.
Previously, if you SIGTERMed at the wrong time while running a script, you
could end up with an inconsistent database state.
* `--resolver global` doesn't retrieve snapshots list from the internet because
doesn't need it. See
[#5103](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5103)
* Fix using relative links in haddocks output. See
[#4971](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4971).
* Do not include generated Cabal file information in lock files. See
[#5045](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5045).
* Use proper Hoogle executable path when installed automatically. See
[#4905](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4905)
* Fix GHC version for batched package unregistration. See
[#4951](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4951)
* Use Hoogle from the snapshot used and not the latest version. See
[#4905](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4905)
* Resolve "'stty' is not recognized". See
[#4901](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4901)
* Fix missing reconfigure check causing errors when a package gets
used in multiple projects. See
[#5147](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5147)
## v2.1.3.1 - 2019-07-16
Hackage-only release:
* Support persistent-template-2.7.x
* Support rio-0.1.11.0
* Add `stack.yaml` back to hackage sdist, and add `snapshot.yaml`
## v2.1.3 - 2019-07-13
**Changes since v2.1.1**
Behavior changes:
* Disable WAL mode for SQLite3 databases, to improve compatibility with some
platforms and filesystems. See
[#4876](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4876).
* By default, do not perform expiry checks in Hackage Security. See
[#4928](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4928).
Other enhancements:
* Do not rerun expected test failures. This is mostly a change that will only
affect the Stackage Curator use case, but there is now an additional message
letting the user know when a previously-failed test case is being rerun.
* Move configure information for project packages back to .stack-work to improve
caching. See
[#4893](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4893).
Bug fixes:
* Fix to allow dependencies on specific versions of local git repositories. See
[#4862](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4862)
* Allow Stack commands to be run in Nix mode without having a project file
available. See
[#4854](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4864).
* Removes dependency on gnu-tar for OSX and Linux environment. The
`--force-local` option was required only for windows environment.
* Properly wait for the `tar` subprocess to complete before returning, thereby
avoiding a SIGTERM screwing up GHC installation. See
[#4888](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4888).
* Use package complete locations from lock files when resolving dependencies in
`extra-deps`. See
[#4887](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4887).
* Set the `HASKELL_DIST_DIR` environment to a proper package dist directory so
`doctest` is able to load modules autogenerated by Cabal.
* Expose package library when running tests.
* Fix support for non-ASCII module names. See
[#4938](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4938)
Other changes:
* Rename `pantry-tmp` package back to `pantry`, now that we have gained
maintainership (which had been used by someone else for a candidate-only test
that made it look like the name was free but prevented uploading a real
package).
## v2.1.1.1 - 2019-06-14
Hackage-only release that removes `stack.yaml` from the sdist. This is because
`stack.yaml` now defines a multi-package project, whereas Hackage works on the
basis on individual packages (see
[#4860](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4860))
If building a `stack` executable for distribution, please download the source
code from https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/releases/tag/v2.1.1 and
build it using Stack itself in order to ensure identical behaviour to official
binaries. This package on Hackage is provided for convenience and bootstrapping
purposes.
## v2.1.1 - 2019-06-13
The Stack 2 release represents a series of significant changes to how Stack
works internally. For the vast majority of cases, these changes are backwards
compatible, in that existing projects will continue to build in the same way
with Stack 2 as they did with Stack 1. The large version bump is due to the
fundamental internal changes to cache handling, database storage (using SQLite
in place of binary files), implicit snapshots (which greatly improve the
precompiled cache), and moving to Pantry. We have also removed some less used
features, as listed below.
**Changes since v1.9.3**
Major changes:
* Switch over to pantry for managing packages. This is a major change to Stack's
internals, and affects user-visible behavior in a few places. Some highlights:
* Drop support for multiple package indices and legacy
`00-index.tar` style indices. See
[#4137](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4137).
* Support for archives and repos in the `packages` section has
been removed. Instead, you must use `extra-deps` for such
dependencies. `packages` now only supports local filepaths.
* Add support for Git repositories containing (recursive) submodules.
* Addition of new configuration options for specifying a "pantry
tree" key, which provides more reproducibility around builds,
and (in the future) will be used for more efficient package
content downloads. You can also specify package name and version
for more efficient config parsing.
* __NOTE__ The new `stack freeze` command provides support
for automatically generating this additional
information.
* Package contents and metadata are stored in an SQLite database
in place of files on the filesystem. The `pantry` library can be
used for interacting with these contents.
* Internally, Stack has changed many datatypes, including moving
to Cabal's definition of many data types. As a result of such
changes, existing cache files will in general be invalidated,
resulting in Stack needing to rebuild many previously cached
builds in the new version. Sorry :(.
* A new command, `stack freeze` has been added which outputs
project and snapshot definitions with dependencies pinned to
their exact versions.
* The `ignore-revision-mismatch` setting is no longer needed, and
has been removed.
* Overriding GHC boot packages results in any other GHC boot
packages depending on it being no longer available as a dependency,
such packages need to be added explicitly when needed. See
[#4510] (https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4510).
* Cabal solver integration was not updated to support newer
`cabal-install` versions so `stack solver` command was removed as
well as a related option `--solver` from `stack new` and
`stack init`.
* Upgrade to Cabal 2.4
* Note that, in this process, the behavior of file globbing has
been modified to match that of Cabal. In particular, this means
that for Cabal spec versions less than 2.4, `*.txt` will
match `foo.txt`, but not `foo.2.txt`.
* Remove the `stack image` command. With the advent of Docker multistage
builds, this functionality is no longer useful. For an example, please see
[Building Haskell Apps with Docker](https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2017/12/building-haskell-apps-with-docker).
* Experimental: Support building GHC from source
* Stack now supports building and installing GHC from source. The built GHC
is uniquely identified by a commit id and an Hadrian "flavour" (Hadrian is
the newer GHC build system), hence `compiler` can be set to use a GHC
built from source with `ghc-git-COMMIT-FLAVOUR`
* `stack.yaml` now supports a `configure-options`, which are passed directly to
the `configure` step in the Cabal build process. See
[#1438](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1438)
* Remove support for building GHCJS itself. Future releases of Stack
may remove GHCJS support entirely.
* Support for lock files for pinning exact project dependency versions
Behavior changes:
* `stack.yaml` now supports `snapshot`: a synonym for `resolver`. See
[#4256](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4256)
* `stack script` now passes `-i -idir` in to the `ghc`
invocation. This makes it so that the script can import local
modules, and fixes an issue where `.hs` files in the current
directory could affect interpretation of the script. See
[#4538](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4538)
* When using `stack script`, custom snapshot files will be resolved
relative to the directory containing the script.
* Remove the deprecated `--upgrade-cabal` flag to `stack setup`.
* Support the `drop-packages` field in `stack.yaml`
* Remove the GPG signing code during uploads. The GPG signatures have
never been used yet, and there are no plans to implement signature
verification.
* Remove the `--plain` option for the `exec` family of commands
* Always use the `--exact-configuration` Cabal configuration option when
building (should mostly be a non-user-visible enhancement).
* No longer supports Cabal versions older than `1.19.2`. This means
projects using snapshots earlier than `lts-3.0` or
`nightly-2015-05-05` will no longer build.
* Remove the `stack docker cleanup` command. Docker itself now has
[`docker image prune`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/image_prune/)
and
[`docker container prune`](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/container_prune/),
which you can use instead.
* Interleaved output is now turned on by default, see
[#4702](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4702). In
addition, the `packagename> ` prefix is no longer included in
interleaved mode when only building a single target.
* The `-fhide-source-paths` GHC option is now enabled by default and
can be disabled via the `hide-source-paths` configuration option in
`stack.yaml`. See
[#3784](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3784)
* Stack will reconfigure a package if you modify your `PATH` environment
variable. See
[#3138](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3138).
* For GHC 8.4 and later, disable the "shadowed dependencies" workaround. This
means that Stack will no longer have to force reconfigures as often. See
[#3554](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3554).
* When building a package, Stack takes a lock on the dist directory in
use to avoid multiple runs of Stack from trampling each others'
files. See
[#2730](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2730).
* Stack will check occasionally if there is a new version available and prompt
the user to upgrade. This will not incur any additional network traffic, as
it will piggy-back on the existing Hackage index updates. You can set
`recommend-stack-upgrade: false` to bypass this. See
[#1681](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1681).
* `stack list-dependencies` has been removed in favour of
`stack ls dependencies`.
* The new default for `--docker-auto-pull` is enabled. See
[#3332](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3332).
Other enhancements:
* Support MX Linux in get-stack.sh. Fixes
[#4769](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4769).
* Defer loading up of files for project packages. This allows us to get
plan construction errors much faster, and avoid some unnecessary
work when only building a subset of packages. This is especially
useful for the curator use case.
* Existing global option `--color=WHEN` is now also available as a
non-project-specific yaml configuration parameter `color:`.
* Adopt the standard proposed at http://no-color.org/, that color should not be
added by default if the `NO_COLOR` environment variable is present.
* New command `stack ls stack-colors` lists the styles and the associated 'ANSI'
control character sequences that Stack uses to color some of its output. See
`stack ls stack-colors --help` for more information.
* New global option `--stack-colors=STYLES`, also available as a
non-project-specific yaml configuration parameter, allows a Stack user to
redefine the default styles that Stack uses to color some of its output. See
`stack --help` for more information.
* British English spelling of 'color' (colour) accepted as an alias for
`--color`, `--stack-colors`, `stack ls stack-colors` at the command line and
for `color:` and `stack-colors:` in yaml configuration files.
* New build option `--ddump-dir`. (See
[#4225](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4225))
* Stack parses and respects the `preferred-versions` information from
Hackage for choosing latest version of a package in some cases,
e.g. `stack unpack packagename`.
* The components output in the `The main module to load is ambiguous` message
now include package names so they can be more easily copy-pasted.
* Git repos are shared across multiple projects. See
[#3551](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3551)
* Use en_US.UTF-8 locale by default in pure Nix mode so programs won't
crash because of Unicode in their output
[#4095](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4095)
* Add `--tree` to `ls dependencies` to list dependencies as tree.
[#4101](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4101)
* Add `--pedantic` to `ghci` to run with `-Wall` and `-Werror`
[#4463](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4463)
* Add `--cabal-files` flag to `stack ide targets` command.
* Add `--stdout` flag to all `stack ide` subcommands.
* Use batches when unregistering packages with `ghc-pkg`.
(See [#2662](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2662))
* `get-stack` script now works on Windows CI machines of Appveyor,
Travis and Azure Pipelines. See
[#4535](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4535)/
* Show snapshot being used when `stack ghci` is invoked outside of a project
directory. See
[#3651](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3651)
* The script interpreter now accepts a `--extra-dep` flag for adding
packages not present in the snapshot. Currently, this only works
with packages from Hackage, not Git repos or archives.
* When using the script interpreter with `--optimize` or `--compile`,
Stack will perform an optimization of checking whether a newer
executable exists, making reruns significantly faster. There's a
downside to this, however: if you have a multifile script, and
change one of the dependency modules, Stack will not automatically
detect and recompile.
* `stack clean` will delete the entire `.stack-work/dist` directory,
not just the relevant subdirectory for the current GHC version. See
[#4480](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4480).
* Add `stack purge` as a shortcut for `stack clean --full`. See
[#3863](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3863).
* Both `stack dot` and `stack ls dependencies` accept a
`--global-hints` flag to bypass the need for an installed GHC. See
[#4390](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4390).
* Add the `stack config env` command for getting shell script environment
variables. See [#620](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/620).
* Less verbose output from `stack setup` on Windows. See
[#1212](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1212).
* Add an optional `ignore-expiry` flag to the `hackage-security`
section of the `~/.stack/config.yaml`. It allows to disable timestamp
expiration verification just like `cabal --ignore-expiry` does.
The flag is not enabled by default so that the default functionality
is not changed.
* Include default values for most command line flags in the `--help`
output. See
[#893](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/893).
* Set the `GHC_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable to specify dependency
packages explicitly when running test. This is done to prevent
ambiguous module name errors in `doctest` tests.
* `get-stack` script now works on Windows CI machines of Appveyor,
Travis and Azure Pipelines. See
[#4535](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4535)
* Warn when a Docker image does not include a `PATH` environment
variable. See
[#2472](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2742)
* When using `system-ghc: true`, Stack will now find the appropriate GHC
installation based on the version suffix, allowing you to more easily switch
between various system-installed GHCs. See
[#2433](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2433).
* `stack init` will now support create a `stack.yaml` file without any local
packages. See [#2465](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2465)
* Store caches in SQLite database instead of files.
* No longer use "global" Docker image database (`docker.db`).
* User config files are respected for the script command. See
[#3705](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3705),
[#3887](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3887).
* Set the `GHC_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable to `-` to tell GHC to ignore
any such files when GHC is new enough (>= 8.4.4), otherwise simply unset the
variable. This allows Stack to have control of package databases when running
commands like `stack exec ghci`, even in the presence of implicit environment
files created by `cabal new-build`. See
[#4706](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4706).
* Use a database cache table to speed up discovery of installed GHCs
* You can specify multiple `--test-arguments` options. See
[#2226](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2226)
* Windows terminal width detection is now done. See
[#3588](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3588)
* On Windows, informs users if the 'programs' path contains a space character
and further warns users if that path does not have an alternative short
('8 dot 3') name, referencing the `local-programs-path` configuration option.
See [#4726](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4726)
* Add `--docker-mount-mode` option to set the Docker volume mount mode
for performance tuning on macOS.
Bug fixes:
* Ignore duplicate files for a single module when a Haskell module was
generated from a preprocessor file. See
[#4076](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4076).
* Only track down components in current directory if there are no
hs-source-dirs found. This eliminates a number of false-positive
warnings, similar to
[#4076](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4076).
* Handle a change in GHC's hi-dump format around `addDependentFile`,
which now includes a hash. See
[yesodweb/yesod#1551](https://github.com/yesodweb/yesod/issues/1551)
* Fix `subdirs` for git repos in `extra-deps` to match whole directory names.
Also fixes for `subdirs: .`. See
[#4292](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4292)
* Fix for git packages to update submodules to the correct state. See
[#4314](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4314)
* Add `--cabal-files` flag to `stack ide targets` command.
* Don't download ghc when using `stack clean`.
* Support loading in GHCi definitions from symlinked C files. Without this
patch, Stack will try to find object files in the directory pointed to
by symlinks, while GCC will produce the object files in the original
directory. See
[#4402](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4402)
* Fix handling of GitHub and URL templates on Windows. See
[#4394](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4394)
* Fix `--file-watch` not responding to file modifications when running
inside docker on Mac. See
[#4506](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4506)
* Using `--ghc-options` with `stack script --compile` now works.
* Ensure the detailed-0.9 type tests work.
See [#4453](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4453).
* Extra include and lib dirs are now order-dependent. See
[#4527](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4527).
* Apply GHC options when building a `Setup.hs` file. See
[#4526](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4526).
* Stack handles ABI changes in FreeBSD 12 by differentiating that version from
previous.
* Help text for the `templates` subcommand now reflects behaviour in Stack 1.9
— that it downloads and shows a help file, rather than listing available
templates.
* Fix detection of aarch64 platform (this broke when we upgraded to a newer
Cabal version).
* Docker: fix detecting and pulling missing images with `--docker-auto-pull`.
See
[#4598](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4598)
* Hackage credentials are not world-readable. See
[#2159](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2159).
* Warnings are dumped from logs even when color is enabled. See
[#2997](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2997)
* `stack init` will now work for Cabal files with sublibraries. See
[#4408](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4408)
* When the Cabal spec version is newer than the global Cabal version, build
against the snapshot's Cabal library. See
[#4488](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4488)
* Docker: fix detection of expected subprocess failures. This fixes
downloading a compatible `stack` executable when the host `stack` is not
compatible with the Docker image (on Linux), and doesn't show an unnecessary
extra error when the in-container re-exec'ed `stack` exits with failure.
* The `stack ghci` command's `--ghc-options` flag now parses multiple options.
See [#3315](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3315).
## v1.9.3.1 - 2019-04-18
Hackage-only release with no user facing changes (added compatibility
with `rio-0.1.9.2`).
## v1.9.3 - 2018-12-02
Bug fixes:
* Stack can now be compiled again inside a directory that does not
contain a `.git` directory. See
[#4364](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4364#issuecomment-431600841)
* Handle a change in GHC's hi-dump format around `addDependentFile`,
which now includes a hash. See
[yesodweb/yesod#1551](https://github.com/yesodweb/yesod/issues/1551)
* Allow variables to appear in template file names.
## v1.9.1.1 - 2018-11-14
Hackage-only release with no user facing changes.
* Stack can now be compiled again inside a directory that does not
contain a `.git` directory. See
[#4364](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4364#issuecomment-431600841)
## v1.9.1 - 2018-10-17
Release notes:
* Statically linked Linux bindists are back again, thanks to
[@nh2](https://github.com/nh2).
* We will be deleting the Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Fedora, and Arch package repos
from `download.fpcomplete.com` soon. These have been deprecated for over a
year and have not received new releases, but were left in place for
compatibility with older scripts.
Major changes:
* Upgrade to Cabal 2.4
* Note that, in this process, the behavior of file globbing has
been modified to match that of Cabal. In particular, this means
that for Cabal spec versions less than 2.4, `*.txt` will
match `foo.txt`, but not `foo.2.txt`.
* `GHCJS` support is being downgraded to 'experimental'. A warning notifying the
user of the experimental status of `GHCJS` will be displayed.
Behavior changes:
* `ghc-options` from `stack.yaml` are now appended to `ghc-options` from
`config.yaml`, whereas before they would be replaced.
* `stack build` will now announce when sublibraries of a package are being
build, in the same way executables, tests, benchmarks and libraries are
announced
* `stack sdist` will now announce the destination of the generated tarball,
regardless of whether or not it passed the sanity checks
* The `--upgrade-cabal` option to `stack setup` has been
deprecated. This feature no longer works with GHC 8.2 and
later. Furthermore, the reason for this flag originally being
implemented was drastically lessened once Stack started using the
snapshot's `Cabal` library for custom setups. See:
[#4070](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4070).
* With the new namespaced template feature, `stack templates` is no
longer able to meaningfully display a list of all templates
available. Instead, the command will download and display a
[help file](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack-templates/blob/master/STACK_HELP.md)
with more information on how to discover templates. See:
[#4039](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4039)
* Build tools are now handled in a similar way to `cabal-install`. In
particular, for legacy `build-tools` fields, we use a hard-coded
list of build tools in place of looking up build tool packages in a
tool map. This both brings Stack's behavior closer into line with
`cabal-install`, avoids some bugs, and opens up some possible
optimizations/laziness. See:
[#4125](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4125).
* Mustache templating is not applied to large files (over 50kb) to
avoid performance degradation. See:
[#4133](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4133).
* `stack upload` signs the package by default, as documented. `--no-signature`
turns the signing off.
[#3739](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3739)
* In case there is a network connectivity issue while trying to
download a template, Stack will check whether that template had
been downloaded before. In that case, the cached version will be
used. See [#3850](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3850).
* In Stack's script interpreter, `-- stack --verbosity=info script` and
`-- stack script --verbosity=info` now have the same effect and both override
the `--verbosity=error` default in the interpreter. Previously the default
meant the former was equivalent to
`-- stack --verbosity=info script --verbosity=error` and the latter was
equivalent to `-- stack --verbosity=error script --verbosity=info`, with the
subcommand's global option having precedence over the Stack command's
global option in each case. See
[#5326](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/5326).
Other enhancements:
* On Windows before Windows 10, --color=never is the default on terminals that
can support ANSI color codes in output only by emulation
* On Windows, recognise a 'mintty' (false) terminal as a terminal, by default
* `stack build` issues a warning when `base` is explicitly listed in
`extra-deps` of `stack.yaml`
* `stack build` suggests trying another GHC version should the build
plan end up requiring unattainable `base` version.
* A new sub command `run` has been introduced to build and run a specified
executable similar to `cabal run`. If no executable is provided as the first
argument, it defaults to the first available executable in the project.
* `stack build` missing dependency suggestions (on failure to construct a valid
build plan because of missing deps) are now printed with their latest Cabal
file revision hash. See
[#4068](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4068).
* Added new `--tar-dir` option to `stack sdist`, that allows to copy
the resulting tarball to the specified directory.
* Introduced the `--interleaved-output` command line option and
`build.interleaved-output` config value which causes multiple concurrent
builds to dump to stderr at the same time with a `packagename> ` prefix. See
[#3225](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3225).
* The default retry strategy has changed to exponential backoff.
This should help with
[#3510](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3510).
* `stack new` now allows template names of the form `username/foo` to
download from a user other than `commercialstack` on GitHub, and can be
prefixed with the service `github:`, `gitlab:`, or `bitbucket:`. See
[#4039](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4039)
* Switch to `githash` to include some unmerged bugfixes in `gitrev`
Suggestion to add `'allow-newer': true` now shows path to user config
file where this flag should be put into
[#3685](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3685)
* `stack ghci` now asks which main target to load before doing the build,
rather than after
* Bump to Hpack 0.29.0
* With GHC 8.4 and later, Haddock is given the `--quickjump` flag.
* It is possible to specify the Hackage base URL to upload packages to, instead
of the default of `https://hackage.haskell.org/`, by using `hackage-base-url`
configuration option.
* When using Nix, if a specific minor version of GHC is not requested, the
latest minor version in the given major branch will be used automatically.
Bug fixes:
* `stack ghci` now does not invalidate `.o` files on repeated runs,
meaning any modules compiled with `-fobject-code` will be cached
between ghci runs. See
[#4038](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/4038).
* `~/.stack/config.yaml` and `stack.yaml` terminating by newline
* The previous released caused a regression where some `stderr` from the
`ghc-pkg` command showed up in the terminal. This output is now silenced.
* A regression in recompilation checking introduced in v1.7.1 has been fixed.
See [#4001](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4001)
* `stack ghci` on a package with internal libraries was erroneously looking
for a wrong package corresponding to the internal library and failing to
load any module. This has been fixed now and changes to the code in the
library and the sublibrary are properly tracked. See
[#3926](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3926).
* For packages with internal libraries not depended upon, `stack build` used
to fail the build process since the internal library was not built but it
was tried to be registered. This is now fixed by always building internal
libraries. See
[#3996](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3996).
* `--no-nix` was not respected under NixOS
* Fix a regression which might use a lot of RAM. See
[#4027](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4027).
* Order of commandline arguments does not matter anymore.
See [#3959](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3959)
* When prompting users about saving their Hackage credentials on upload,
flush to stdout before waiting for the response so the prompt actually
displays. Also fixes a similar issue with ghci target selection prompt.
* If `cabal` is not on PATH, running `stack solver` now prompts the user
to run `stack install cabal-install`
* `stack build` now succeeds in building packages which contain sublibraries
which are dependencies of executables, tests or benchmarks but not of the
main library. See
[#3787](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3787).
* Sublibraries are now properly considered for coverage reports when the test
suite depends on the internal library. Before, Stack was erroring when
trying to generate the coverage report, see
[#4105](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4105).
* Sublibraries are now added to the precompiled cache and recovered from there
when the snapshot gets updated. Previously, updating the snapshot when there
was a package with a sublibrary in the snapshot resulted in broken builds.
This is now fixed, see
[#4071](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4071).
* [#4114](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/4114) Stack pretty
prints error messages with proper `error` logging level instead of `warning`
now. This also fixes self-executing scripts not piping plan construction
errors from runhaskell to terminal (issue
[#3942](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3942)).
* Fix invalid "While building Setup.hs" when Cabal calls fail. See:
[#3934](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3934)
* `stack upload` signs the package by default, as documented. `--no-signature`
turns the signing off.
[#3739](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3739)
## v1.7.1 - 2018-04-27
Release notes:
* aarch64 (64-bit ARM) bindists are now available for the first time.
* Statically linked Linux bindists are no longer available, due to difficulty
with GHC 8.2.2 on Alpine Linux.
* 32-bit Linux GMP4 bindists for CentOS 6 are no longer available, since
GHC 8.2.2 is no longer being built for that platform.
Major changes:
* Upgrade from Cabal 2.0 to Cabal 2.2
Behavior changes:
* `stack setup` no longer uses different GHC configure options on Linux
distributions that use GCC with PIE enabled by default. GHC detects
this itself since ghc-8.0.2, and Stack's attempted workaround for older
versions caused more problems than it solved.
* `stack new` no longer initializes a project if the project template contains
a `stack.yaml` file.
Other enhancements:
* A new sub command `ls` has been introduced to Stack to view
local and remote snapshots present in the system. Use `stack ls
snapshots --help` to get more details about it.
* `list-dependencies` has been deprecated. The functionality has
to accessed through the new `ls dependencies` interface. See
[#3669](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3669)
for details.
* Specify User-Agent HTTP request header on every HTTP request.
See [#3628](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3628) for details.
* `stack setup` looks for GHC bindists and installations by any OS key
that is compatible (rather than only checking a single one). This is
relevant on Linux where different distributions may have different
combinations of libtinfo 5/6, ncurses 5/6, and gmp 4/5, and will allow
simplifying the setup-info metadata YAML for future GHC releases.
* The build progress bar reports names of packages currently building.
* `stack setup --verbose` causes verbose output of GHC configure process.
See [#3716](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3716)
* Improve the error message when an `extra-dep` from a path or git reference
can't be found. See
[#3808](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3808)
* Nix integration is now disabled on windows even if explicitly enabled,
since it isn't supported. See
[#3600](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3600)
* `stack build` now supports a new flag `--keep-tmp-files` to retain
intermediate files and directories for the purpose of debugging. It is best
used with ghc's equivalent flag,
i.e. `stack build --keep-tmp-files --ghc-options=-keep-tmp-files`.
See [#3857](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3857)
* Improved error messages for snapshot parse exceptions
* `stack unpack` now supports a `--to /target/directory` option to
specify where to unpack the package into
* `stack hoogle` now supports a new flag `--server` that launches local
Hoogle server on port 8080. See
[#2310](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2310)
Bug fixes:
* The script interpreter's implicit file arguments are now passed before other
arguments. See
[#3658](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3658).
In particular, this makes it possible to pass `-- +RTS ... -RTS` to specify
RTS arguments used when running the script.
* Don't ignore the template `year` parameter in config files, and clarify the
surrounding documentation. See
[#2275](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2275).
* Benchmarks used to be run concurrently with other benchmarks
and build steps. This is non-ideal because CPU usage of other processes
may interfere with benchmarks. It also prevented benchmark output from
being displayed by default. This is now fixed. See
[#3663](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3663).
* `stack ghci` now allows loading multiple packages with the same
module name, as long as they have the same filepath. See
[#3776](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3776).
* `stack ghci` no longer always adds a dependency on `base`. It is
now only added when there are no local targets. This allows it to
be to load code that uses replacements for `base`. See
[#3589](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3589#issuecomment)
* `stack ghci` now uses correct paths for autogen files with
[#3791](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3791)
* When a package contained sublibraries, Stack was always recompiling the
package. This has been fixed now, no recompilation is being done because of
sublibraries. See
[#3899](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3899).
* The `get-stack.sh` install script now matches manual instructions
when it comes to Debian/Fedora/CentOS install dependencies.
* Compile Cabal-simple with gmp when using Nix.
See [#2944](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2944)
* `stack ghci` now replaces the Stack process with ghci. This improves
signal handling behavior. In particular, handling of Ctrl-C. To make
this possible, the generated files are now left behind after exit.
The paths are based on hashing file contents, and it's stored in the
system temporary directory, so this shouldn't result in too much
garbage. See
[#3821](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3821).
## v1.6.5 - 2018-02-19
Bug fixes:
* Some unnecessary rebuilds when no files were changed are now avoided, by
having a separate build cache for each component of a package. See
[#3732](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3732).
* Correct the behavior of promoting a package from snapshot to local
package. This would get triggered when version bounds conflicted in
a snapshot, which could be triggered via Hackage revisions for old
packages. This also should allow custom snapshots to define
conflicting versions of packages without issue. See
[Stackage issue #3185](https://github.com/fpco/stackage/issues/3185).
* When promoting packages from snapshot to local, we were
occasionally discarding the actual package location content and
instead defaulting to pulling the package from the index. We now
correctly retain this information. Note that if you were affected by
this bug, you will likely need to delete the binary build cache
associated with the relevant custom snapshot. See
[#3714](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3714).
* `--no-rerun-tests` has been fixed. Previously, after running a test
we were forgetting to record the result, which meant that all tests
always ran even if they had already passed before. See
[#3770](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3770).
* Includes a patched version of `hackage-security` which fixes both
some issues around asynchronous exception handling, and moves from
directory locking to file locking, making the update mechanism
resilient against SIGKILL and machine failure. See `hackage-security` issue
[#187](https://github.com/haskell/hackage-security/issues/187)
and Stack issue
[#3073](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3073).
## v1.6.3.1 - 2018-02-16
Hackage-only release with no user facing changes (updated to build with
newer version of Hpack dependency).
## v1.6.3 - 2017-12-23
Enhancements:
* In addition to supporting `.tar.gz` and `.zip` files as remote archives,
plain `.tar` files are now accepted too. This will additionally help with
cases where HTTP servers mistakenly set the transfer encoding to `gzip`. See
[#3647](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3647).
* Links to docs.haskellstack.org ignore Stack version patchlevel.
* Downloading Docker-compatible `stack` binary ignores Stack version patchlevel.
Bug fixes:
* For versions of Cabal before 1.24, ensure that the dependencies of
non-buildable components are part of the build plan to work around an old
Cabal bug. See
[#3631](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3631).
* Run the Cabal file checking in the `sdist` command more reliably by
allowing the Cabal library to flatten the
`GenericPackageDescription` itself.
## v1.6.1.1 - 2017-12-20
Hackage-only release with no user facing changes (updated to build with
newer dependency versions).
## v1.6.1 - 2017-12-07
Major changes:
* Complete overhaul of how snapshots are defined, the `packages` and
`extra-deps` fields, and a number of related items. For full
details, please see the
[writeup](https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2017/07/stacks-new-extensible-snapshots)
on these changes.
[PR #3249](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3249),
see the PR description for a number of related issues.
* Upgraded to version 2.0 of the Cabal library.
Behavior changes:
* The `--install-ghc` flag is now on by default. For example, if you
run `stack build` in a directory requiring a GHC that you do not
currently have, Stack will automatically download and install that
GHC. You can explicitly set `install-ghc: false` or pass the flag
`--no-install-ghc` to regain the previous behavior.
* `stack ghci` no longer loads modules grouped by package. This is
always an improvement for plain ghci - it makes loading faster and
less noisy. For intero, this has the side-effect that it will no
longer load multiple packages that depend on TH loading relative
paths. TH relative paths will still work when loading a single
package into intero. See
[#3309](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3309)
* Setting GHC options for a package via `ghc-options:` in your
`stack.yaml` will promote it to a local package, providing for more
consistency with flags and better reproducibility. See:
[#849](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/849)
* The `package-indices` setting with Hackage no longer works with the
`00-index.tar.gz` tarball, but must use the `01-index.tar.gz` file
to allow revised packages to be found.
* Options passed via `--ghci-options` are now passed to the end of the
invocation of ghci, instead of the middle. This allows using `+RTS`
without an accompanying `-RTS`.
* When auto-detecting `--ghc-build`, `tinfo6` is now preferred over
`standard` if both versions of libtinfo are installed
* Addition of `stack build --copy-compiler-tool`, to allow tools like
intero to be installed globally for a particular compiler.
[#2643](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2643)
* Stack will ask before saving hackage credentials to file. This new
prompt can be avoided by using the `save-hackage-creds` setting. Please
see [#2159](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2159).
* The `GHCRTS` environment variable will no longer be passed through to
every program Stack runs. Instead, it will only be passed through
commands like `exec`, `runghc`, `script`, `ghci`, etc.
See [#3444](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3444).
* `ghc-options:` for specific packages will now come after the options
specified for all packages / particular sets of packages. See
[#3573](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3573).
* The `pvp-bounds` feature is no longer fully functional, due to some
issues with the Cabal library's printer. See
[#3550](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3550).
Other enhancements:
* The `with-hpack` configuration option specifies an Hpack executable to use
instead of the Hpack bundled with Stack. Please
see [#3179](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3179).
* It's now possible to skip tests and benchmarks using `--skip`
flag
* `GitSHA1` is now `StaticSHA256` and is implemented using the
`StaticSize 64 ByteString` for improved performance. See
[#3006](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3006)
* Dependencies via HTTP(S) archives have been generalized to allow
local file path archives, as well as to support setting a
cryptographic hash (SHA256) of the contents for better
reproducibility.
* Allow specifying `--git-branch` when upgrading
* When running `stack upgrade` from a file which is different from the
default executable path (e.g., on POSIX systems,
`~/.local/bin/stack`), it will now additionally copy the new
executable over the currently running `stack` executable. If
permission is denied (such as in `/usr/local/bin/stack`), the user
will be prompted to try again using `sudo`. This is intended to
assist with the user experience when the `PATH` environment variable
has not been properly configured, see
[#3232](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3232).
* `stack setup` for ghcjs will now install `alex` and `happy` if
they are not present. See
[#3109](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3232).
* Added `stack ghci --only-main` flag, to skip loading / importing
all but main modules. See the ghci documentation page
for further info.
* Allow GHC's colored output to show through. GHC colors output
starting with version 8.2.1, for older GHC this does nothing.
Sometimes GHC's heuristics would work fine even before this change,
for example in `stack ghci`, but this override's GHC's heuristics
when they're broken by our collecting and processing GHC's output.
* Extended the `ghc-options` field to support `$locals`, `$targets`,
and `$everything`. See:
[#3329](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3329)
* Better error message for case that `stack ghci` file targets are
combined with invalid package targets. See:
[#3342](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3342)
* For profiling now uses `-fprof-auto -fprof-cafs` instead of
the deprecated `-auto-all -caf-all`. See:
[#3360](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3360)
* Better descriptions are now available for `stack upgrade --help`. See:
[#3070](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3070)
* When using Nix, nix-shell now depends always on gcc to prevent build errors
when using the FFI. As ghc depends on gcc anyway, this doesn't increase the
dependency footprint.
* `--cwd DIR` can now be passed to `stack exec` in order to execute the
program in a different directory. See:
[#3264](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3264)
* Plan construction will detect if you add an executable-only package
as a library dependency, resulting in much clearer error
messages. See:
[#2195](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2195).
* Addition of `--ghc-options` to `stack script` to pass options directly
to GHC. See:
[#3454](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3454)
* Add Hpack `package.yaml` to build Stack itself
* Add `ignore-revision-mismatch` setting. See:
[#3520](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3520).
* Log when each individual test suite finishes. See:
[#3552](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3552).
* Avoid spurious rebuilds when using `--file-watch` by not watching files for
executable, test and benchmark components that aren't a target. See:
[#3483](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3483).
* Stack will now try to detect the width of the running terminal
(only on POSIX for the moment) and use that to better display
output messages. Work is ongoing, so some messages will not
be optimal yet. The terminal width can be overridden with the
new `--terminal-width` command-line option (this works even on
non-POSIX).
* Passing non local packages as targets to `stack ghci` will now
cause them to be used as `-package` args along with package
hiding.
* Detect when user changed Cabal file instead of `package.yaml`. This
was implemented upstream in Hpack. See
[#3383](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3383).
* Automatically run `autoreconf -i` as necessary when a `configure`
script is missing. See
[#3534](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3534)
* GHC bindists can now be identified by their SHA256 checksum in addition to
their SHA1 checksum, allowing for more security in download.
* For filesystem setup-info paths, it's no longer assumed that the
directory is writable, instead a temp dir is used. See
[#3188](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3188).
Bug fixes:
* `stack hoogle` correctly generates Hoogle databases. See:
[#3362](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3362)
* `stack --docker-help` is now clearer about --docker implying
system-ghc: true, rather than both --docker and --no-docker.
* `stack haddock` now includes package names for all modules in the
Haddock index page. See:
[#2886](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2886)
* Fixed an issue where Stack wouldn't detect missing Docker images
properly with newer Docker versions.
[#3171](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3171)
* Previously, Cabal files with just test-suite could cause build to fail
([#2862](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2862))
* If an invalid snapshot file has been detected (usually due to
mismatched hashes), Stack will delete the downloaded file and
recommend either retrying or filing an issue upstream. See
[#3319](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3319).
* Modified the flag parser within Stack to match the behavior of
Cabal's flag parser, which allows multiple sequential dashes. See
[#3345](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3345)
* Now clears the hackage index cache if it is older than the
downloaded index. Fixes potential issue if Stack was interrupted when
updating index.
See [#3033](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3033)
* The Stack install script now respects the `-d` option.
See [#3366](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3366).
* `stack script` can now handle relative paths to source files.
See [#3372](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3372).
* Fixes explanation of why a target is needed by the build plan, when the
target is an extra-dep from the commandline.
See [#3378](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3378).
* Previously, if you delete a yaml file from ~/.stack/build-plan, it would
trust the etag and not re-download. Fixed in this version.
* Invoking `stack --docker` in parallel now correctly locks the sqlite database.
See [#3400](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3400).
* docs.haskellstack.org RTD documentation search is replaced by the mkdocs
search. Please see
[#3376](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3376).
* `stack clean` now works with nix. See
[#3468](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3376).
* `stack build --only-dependencies` no longer builds local project packages
that are depended on. See
[#3476](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3476).
* Properly handle relative paths stored in the precompiled cache files. See
[#3431](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3431).
* In some cases, Cabal does not realize that it needs to reconfigure, and must
be told to do so automatically. This would manifest as a "shadowed
dependency" error message. We now force a reconfigure whenever a dependency is
built, even if the package ID remained the same. See
[#2781](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2781).
* When `--pvp-bounds` is enabled for sdist or upload, internal
dependencies could cause errors when uploaded to hackage. This is
fixed, see [#3290](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3290)
* Fixes a bug where nonexistent hackage versions would cause Stack to
suggest the same package name, without giving version info. See
[#3562](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3562)
* Fixes a bug that has existed since 1.5.0, where
`stack setup --upgrade-cabal` would say that Cabal is already the latest
version, when it wasn't.
* Ensure that an `extra-dep` from a local directory is not treated as
a `$locals` for GHC options purposes. See
[#3574](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3574).
* Building all executables only happens once instead of every
time. See
[#3229](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3229) for
more info.
## 1.5.1 - 2017-08-05
Bug fixes:
* Stack eagerly tries to parse all Cabal files related to a
snapshot. Starting with Stackage Nightly 2017-07-31, snapshots are
using GHC 8.2.1, and the `ghc.cabal` file implicitly referenced uses
the (not yet supported) Cabal 2.0 file format. Future releases of
Stack will both be less eager about Cabal file parsing and support
Cabal 2.0. This patch simply bypasses the error for invalid parsing.
## 1.5.0 - 2017-07-25
Behavior changes:
* `stack profile` and `stack trace` now add their extra RTS arguments for
benchmarks and tests to the beginning of the args, instead of the end.
See [#2399](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2399)
* Support for Git-based indices has been removed.
Other enhancements:
* `stack setup` allow to control options passed to ghcjs-boot with
`--ghcjs-boot-options` (one word at a time) and `--[no-]ghcjs-boot-clean`
* `stack setup` now accepts a `--install-cabal VERSION` option which
will install a specific version of the Cabal library globally.
* Updates to store-0.4.1, which has improved performance and better error
reporting for version tags. A side-effect of this is that all of
stack's binary caches will be invalidated.
* `stack solver` will now warn about unexpected `cabal-install` versions.
See [#3044](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3044)
* Upstream packages unpacked to a temp dir are now deleted as soon as
possible to avoid running out of space in `/tmp`.
See [#3018](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3018)
* Add short synonyms for `test-arguments` and `benchmark-arguments` options.
* Adds `STACK_WORK` environment variable, to specify work dir.
See [#3063](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3063)
* Can now use relative paths for `extra-include-dirs` and `extra-lib-dirs`.
See [#2830](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2830)
* Improved bash completion for many options, including `--ghc-options`,
`--flag`, targets, and project executables for `exec`.
* `--haddock-arguments` is actually used now when `haddock` is invoked
during documentation generation.
* `--[no-]haddock-hyperlink-source` flag added which allows toggling
of sources being included in Haddock output.
See [#3099](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3099)
* `stack ghci` will now skip building all local targets, even if they have
downstream deps, as long as it's registered in the DB.
* The `pvp-bounds` feature now supports adding `-revision` to the end of each
value, e.g. `pvp-bounds: both-revision`. This means that, when uploading to
Hackage, Stack will first upload your tarball with an unmodified Cabal file,
and then upload a Cabal file revision with the PVP bounds added. This can be
useful - especially combined with the
[Stackage no-revisions feature](http://www.snoyman.com/blog/2017/04/stackages-no-revisions-field) - as
a method to ensure PVP compliance without having to proactively fix bounds
issues for Stackage maintenance.
* Expose a `save-hackage-creds` configuration option
* On GHC <= 7.8, filters out spurious linker warnings on windows
See [#3127](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/3127)
* Better error messages when creating or building packages which alias
wired-in packages. See
[#3172](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3172).
* MinGW bin folder now is searched for dynamic libraries. See
[#3126](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3126)
* When using Nix, nix-shell now depends always on git to prevent runtime errors
while fetching metadata
* Experimental: The `stack unpack` command now accepts a form where an explicit
Hackage revision hash is specified, e.g.
`stack unpack foo-1.2.3@gitsha1:deadbeef`. Note that Stack will likely move
towards a different hash format in the future.
* Binary "stack upgrade" will now warn if the installed executable is not
on the PATH or shadowed by another entry.
* Allow running tests on tarball created by sdist and upload
[#717](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/717).
Bug fixes:
* Fixes case where `stack build --profile` might not cause executables /
tests / benchmarks to be rebuilt.
See [#2984](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2984)
* `stack ghci file.hs` now loads the file even if it isn't part of
your project.
* `stack clean --full` now works when docker is enabled.
See [#2010](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2010)
* Fixes an issue where cyclic deps can cause benchmarks or tests to be run
before they are built.
See [#2153](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2153)
* Fixes `stack build --file-watch` in cases where a directory is removed
See [#1838](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1838)
* Fixes `stack dot` and `stack list-dependencies` to use info from the
package database for wired-in-packages (ghc, base, etc).
See [#3084](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3084)
* Fixes `stack --docker build` when user is part of libvirt/libvirtd
groups on Ubuntu Yakkety (16.10).
See [#3092](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3092)
* Switching a package between extra-dep and local package now forces
rebuild (previously it wouldn't if versions were the same).
See [#2147](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2147)
* `stack upload` no longer reveals your password when you type it on
MinTTY-based Windows shells, such as Cygwin and MSYS2.
See [#3142](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/3142)
* `stack script`'s import parser will now properly parse files that
have Windows-style line endings (CRLF)
## 1.4.0 - 2017-03-15
Release notes:
* Docker images:
[fpco/stack-full](https://hub.docker.com/r/fpco/stack-full/) and
[fpco/stack-run](https://hub.docker.com/r/fpco/stack-run/)
are no longer being built for LTS 8.0 and above.
[fpco/stack-build](https://hub.docker.com/r/fpco/stack-build/)
images continue to be built with a
[simplified process](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/tree/master/etc/dockerfiles/stack-build).
[#624](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/624)
Major changes:
* A new command, `script`, has been added, intended to make the script
interpreter workflow more reliable, easier to use, and more
efficient. This command forces the user to provide a `--resolver`
value, ignores all config files for more reproducible results, and
optimizes the existing package check to make the common case of all
packages already being present much faster. This mode does require
that all packages be present in a snapshot, however.
[#2805](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2805)
Behavior changes:
* The default package metadata backend has been changed from Git to
the 01-index.tar.gz file, from the hackage-security project. This is
intended to address some download speed issues from GitHub for
people in certain geographic regions. There is now full support for
checking out specific Cabal file revisions from downloaded tarballs
as well. If you manually specify a package index with only a Git
URL, Git will still be used. See
[#2780](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2780)
* When you provide the `--resolver` argument to the `stack unpack`
command, any packages passed in by name only will be looked up in
the given snapshot instead of taking the latest version. For
example, `stack --resolver lts-7.14 unpack mtl` will get version
2.2.1 of `mtl`, regardless of the latest version available in the
package indices. This will also force the same Cabal file revision
to be used as is specified in the snapshot.
Unpacking via a package identifier (e.g. `stack --resolver lts-7.14
unpack mtl-2.2.1`) will ignore any settings in the snapshot and take
the most recent revision.
For backwards compatibility with tools relying on the presence of a
`00-index.tar`, Stack will copy the `01-index.tar` file to
`00-index.tar`. Note, however, that these files are different; most
importantly, 00-index contains only the newest revisions of Cabal
files, while 01-index contains all versions. You may still need to
update your tooling.
* Passing `--(no-)nix-*` options now no longer implies `--nix`, except for
`--nix-pure`, so that the user preference whether or not to use Nix is
honored even in the presence of options that change the Nix behavior.
Other enhancements:
* Internal cleanup: configuration types are now based much more on lenses
* `stack build` and related commands now allow the user to disable debug symbol
stripping with new `--no-strip`, `--no-library-stripping`, and
`--no-executable-shipping` flags, closing
[#877](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/877). Also turned
error message for missing targets more readable
([#2384](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2384))
* `stack haddock` now shows index.html paths when documentation is already up to
date. Resolved [#781](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/781)
* Respects the `custom-setup` field introduced in Cabal 1.24. This supercedes
any `explicit-setup-deps` settings in your `stack.yaml` and trusts the
package's Cabal file to explicitly state all its dependencies.
* If system package installation fails, `get-stack.sh` will fail as well. Also
shows warning suggesting to run `apt-get update` or similar, depending on the
OS.
([#2898](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2898))
* When `stack ghci` is run with a config with no packages (e.g. global project),
it will now look for source files in the current work dir.
([#2878](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2878))
* Bump to Hpack 0.17.0 to allow `custom-setup` and `!include "..."` in
`package.yaml`.
* The script interpreter will now output error logging. In particular,
this means it will output info about plan construction errors.
([#2879](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2879))
* `stack ghci` now takes `--flag` and `--ghc-options` again (inadvertently
removed in 1.3.0).
([#2986](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2986))
* `stack exec` now takes `--rts-options` which passes the given arguments inside
of `+RTS ... args .. -RTS` to the executable. This works around Stack itself
consuming the RTS flags on Windows.
([#2640](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2640))
* Upgraded `http-client-tls` version, which now offers support for the
`socks5://` and `socks5h://` values in the `http_proxy` and `https_proxy`
environment variables.
Bug fixes:
* Bump to Hpack 0.16.0 to avoid character encoding issues when reading and
writing on non-UTF8 systems.
* `stack ghci` will no longer ignore hsSourceDirs that contain `..`.
([#2895](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2895))
* `stack list-dependencies --license` now works for wired-in-packages,
like base. ([#2871](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2871))
* `stack setup` now correctly indicates when it uses system ghc
([#2963](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2963))
* Fix to `stack config set`, in 1.3.2 it always applied to
the global project.
([#2709](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2709))
* Previously, Cabal files without exe or lib would fail on the "copy" step.
([#2862](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2862))
* `stack upgrade --git` now works properly. Workaround for affected
versions (>= 1.3.0) is to instead run `stack upgrade --git --source-only`.
([#2977](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2977))
* Added support for GHC 8's slightly different warning format for
dumping warnings from logs.
* Work around a bug in Cabal/GHC in which package IDs are not unique
for different source code, leading to Stack not always rebuilding
packages depending on local packages which have
changed. ([#2904](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2904))
## 1.3.2 - 2016-12-27
Bug fixes:
* `stack config set` can now be used without a compiler installed
[#2852](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2852).
* `get-stack.sh` now installs correct binary on ARM for generic linux and
raspbian, closing
[#2856](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2856).
* Correct the testing of whether a package database exists by checking
for the `package.cache` file itself instead of the containing
directory.
* Revert a change in the previous release which made it impossible to
set local extra-dep packages as targets. This was overkill; we
really only wanted to disable their test suites, which was already
handled by a later
patch. [#2849](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2849)
* `stack new` always treats templates as being UTF-8 encoding,
ignoring locale settings on a local machine. See
[Yesod mailing list discussion](https://groups.google.com/d/msg/yesodweb/ZyWLsJOtY0c/aejf9E7rCAAJ)
## 1.3.0 - 2016-12-12
Release notes:
* For the _next_ Stack release after this one, we are planning
changes to our Linux releases, including dropping our Ubuntu,
Debian, CentOS, and Fedora package repositories and switching to
statically linked binaries. See
[#2534](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2534).
Note that upgrading without a package manager has gotten easier
with new binary upgrade support in `stack upgrade` (see the Major
Changes section below for more information). In addition, the
get.haskellstack.org script no longer installs from Ubuntu,
Debian, CentOS, or Fedora package repositories. Instead it places
a generic binary in /usr/local/bin.
Major changes:
* Stack will now always use its own GHC installation, even when a suitable GHC
installation is available on the PATH. To get the old behaviour, use
the `--system-ghc` flag or run `stack config set system-ghc --global true`.
Docker- and Nix-enabled projects continue to use the GHC installations
in their environment by default.
NB: Scripts that previously used Stack in combination with a system GHC
installation should now include a `stack setup` line or use the
`--install-ghc` flag.
[#2221](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2221)
* `stack ghci` now defaults to skipping the build of target packages, because
support has been added for invoking "initial build steps", which create
autogen files and run preprocessors. The `--no-build` flag is now deprecated
because it should no longer be necessary. See
[#1364](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1364)
* Stack is now capable of doing binary upgrades instead of always
recompiling a new version from source. Running `stack upgrade` will
now default to downloading a binary version of Stack from the most
recent release, if one is available. See `stack upgrade --help` for
more options.
[#1238](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1238)
Behavior changes:
* Passing `--resolver X` with a Stack command which forces creation of a global
project config, will pass resolver X into the initial config.
See [#2579](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2229).
* Switch the "Run from outside project" messages to debug-level, to
avoid spamming users in the normal case of non-project usage
* If a remote package is specified (such as a Git repo) without an explicit
`extra-dep` setting, a warning is given to the user to provide one
explicitly.
Other enhancements:
* `stack haddock` now supports `--haddock-internal`. See
[#2229](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2229)
* Add support for `system-ghc` and `install-ghc` fields to `stack config set`
command.
* Add `ghc-build` option to override autodetected GHC build to use (e.g. gmp4,
tinfo6, nopie) on Linux.
* `stack setup` detects systems where gcc enables PIE by default (such as Ubuntu
16.10 and Hardened Gentoo) and adjusts the GHC `configure` options
accordingly. [#2542](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2542)
* Upload to Hackage with HTTP digest instead of HTTP basic.
* Make `stack list-dependencies` understand all of the `stack dot` options too.
* Add the ability for `stack list-dependencies` to list dependency licenses by
passing the `--license` flag.
* Dump logs that contain warnings for any local non-dependency packages
[#2545](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2545)
* Add the `dump-logs` config option and `--dump-logs` command line
option to get full build output on the
console. [#426](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/426)
* Add the `--open` option to "stack hpc report" command, causing the report to
be opened in the browser.
* The `stack config set` command now accepts a `--global` flag for suitable
fields which causes it to modify the global user configuration
(`~/.stack/config.yaml`) instead of the project configuration.
[#2675](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2675)
* Information on the latest available snapshots is now downloaded from S3
instead of stackage.org, increasing reliability in case of stackage.org
outages. [#2653](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2653)
* `stack dot` and `stack list-dependencies` now take targets and flags.
[#1919](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1919)
* Deprecate `stack setup --stack-setup-yaml` for `--setup-info-yaml` based
on discussion in
[#2647](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2647).
* The `--main-is` flag for GHCI now implies the TARGET, fixing
[#1845](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1845).
* `stack ghci` no longer takes all build options, as many weren't useful
[#2199](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2199)
* `--no-time-in-log` option, to make verbose logs more diffable
[#2727](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2727)
* `--color` option added to override auto-detection of ANSI support
[#2725](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2725)
* Missing extra-deps are now warned about, adding a degree of typo detection
[#1521](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1521)
* No longer warns about missing build-tools if they are on the PATH.
[#2235](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2235)
* Replace enclosed-exceptions with safe-exceptions.
[#2768](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2768)
* The install location for GHC and other programs can now be configured with the
`local-programs-path` option in `config.yaml`.
[#1644](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1644)
* Added option to add nix dependencies as nix GC roots
* Proper pid 1 (init) process for `stack exec` with Docker
* Dump build logs if they contain warnings.
[#2545](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2545)
* Docker: redirect stdout of `docker pull` to stderr so that
it will not interfere with output of other commands.
* Nix & docker can be activated at the same time, in order to run Stack in a
nix-shell in a container, preferably from an image already containing the nix
dependencies in its /nix/store
* Stack/nix: Dependencies can be added as nix GC roots, so they are not removed
when running `nix-collect-garbage`
Bug fixes:
* Fixed a gnarly bug where programs and package tarballs sometimes have
corrupted downloads. See
[#2657](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2568).
* Add proper support for non-ASCII characters in file paths for the `sdist`
command. See [#2549](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2549)
* Never treat `extra-dep` local packages as targets. This ensures
things like test suites are not run for these packages, and that
build output is not hidden due to their presence.
* Fix a resource leak in `sinkProcessStderrStdout` which could affect
much of the codebase, in particular copying precompiled
packages. [#1979](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1979)
* Docker: ensure that interrupted extraction process does not cause corrupt file
when downloading a Docker-compatible Stack executable
[#2568](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2568)
* Fixed running `stack hpc report` on package targets.
[#2664](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2664)
* Fix a long-standing performance regression where Stack would parse the
`.dump-hi` files of the library components of local packages twice.
[#2658](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2658)
* Fixed a regression in "stack ghci --no-load", where it would prompt for a main
module to load. [#2603](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2603)
* Build Setup.hs files with the threaded RTS, mirroring the behavior of
`cabal-install` and enabling more complex build systems in those files.
* Fixed a bug in passing along `--ghc-options` to ghcjs. They were being
provided as `--ghc-options` to Cabal, when it needs to be `--ghcjs-options`.
[#2714](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2714)
* Launch Docker from the project root regardless of the working
directory Stack is invoked from. This means paths relative to the project root
(e.g. environment files) can be specified in `stack.yaml`'s docker `run-args`.
* `stack setup --reinstall` now behaves as expected.
[#2554](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2554)
## 1.2.0 - 2016-09-16
Release notes:
* On many Un*x systems, Stack can now be installed with a simple
one-liner:
wget -qO- https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh
* The fix for
[#2175](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2175)
entails that Stack must perform a full clone of a large Git repo of
Hackage meta-information. The total download size is about 200 MB.
Please be aware of this when upgrading your Stack installation.
* If you use Mac OS X, you may want to delay upgrading to macOS Sierra as there
are reports of GHC panics when building some packages (including Stack
itself). See [#2577](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2577)
* This version of Stack does not build on ARM or PowerPC systems (see
[store#37](https://github.com/fpco/store/issues/37)). Please stay with
version 1.1.2 for now on those architectures. This will be rectified soon!
* We are now releasing a statically linked Stack binary for
[64-bit Linux](https://get.haskellstack.org/stable/linux-x86_64-static.tar.gz).
Please try it and let us know if you run into any trouble on your platform.
* We are planning some changes to our Linux releases, including dropping our
Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, and Fedora package repositories and switching to
statically linked binaries. We would value your feedback in
[#2534](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2534).
Major changes:
* Add `stack hoogle` command.
[#55](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/55)
* Support for absolute file path in `url` field of `setup-info` or
`--ghc-bindist`
* Add support for rendering GHCi scripts targeting different GHCi like
applications
[#2457](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2457)
Behavior changes:
* Remove `stack ide start` and `stack ide load-targets` commands.
[#2178](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2178)
* Support .buildinfo files in `stack ghci`.
[#2242](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2242)
* Support -ferror-spans syntax in GHC error messages.
* Avoid unpacking ghc to `/tmp`
[#996](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/996)
* The Linux `gmp4` GHC bindist is no longer considered a full-fledged GHC
variant and can no longer be specified using the `ghc-variant` option,
and instead is treated more like a slightly different platform.
Other enhancements:
* Use the `store` package for binary serialization of most caches.
* Only require minor version match for Docker Stack exe.
This way, we can make patch releases for version bounds and similar
build issues without needing to upload new binaries for Docker.
* Stack/Nix: Passes the right ghc derivation as an argument to the `shell.nix`
when a custom `shell.nix` is used. See
[#2243](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2243)
* Stack/Nix: Sets `LD_LIBRARY_PATH` so packages using C libs for Template
Haskell can work (See _e.g._
[this HaskellR issue](https://github.com/tweag/HaskellR/issues/253))

## 1.1.2 - 2016-05-20
Release notes:
* Official FreeBSD binaries are
[now available](http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#freebsd)
[#1253](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1253).
Major changes:
* Extensible custom snapshots implemented. These allow you to define snapshots
which extend other snapshots. See
[#863](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/863). Local file custom
snapshots can now be safely updated without changing their name. Remote custom
snapshots should still be treated as immutable.
Behavior changes:
* `stack path --compiler` was added in the last release, to yield a path to the
compiler. Unfortunately, `--compiler` is a global option that is useful to use
with `stack path`. The same functionality is now provided by `stack path
--compiler-exe`. See
[#2123](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2123)
* For packages specified in terms of a git or hg repo, the hash used in the
location has changed. This means that existing downloads from older stack
versions won't be used. This is a side-effect of the fix to
[#2133](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2133)
* `stack upgrade` no longer pays attention to local `stack.yaml` files, just the
global config and CLI options.
[#1392](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1392)
* `stack ghci` now uses `:add` instead of `:load`, making it potentially work
better with user scripts. See
[#1888](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1888)
Other enhancements:
* Grab Cabal files via Git SHA to avoid regressions from Hackage revisions
[#2070](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/2070)
* Custom snapshots now support `ghc-options`.
* Package git repos are now re-used rather than re-cloned. See
[#1620](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1620)
* `DESTDIR` is filtered from environment when installing GHC. See
[#1460](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1460)
* `stack haddock` now supports `--haddock-arguments`. See
[#2144](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2144)
* Signing: warn if GPG_TTY is not set as per `man gpg-agent`
Bug fixes:
* Now ignore project config when doing `stack init` or `stack new`. See
[#2110](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2110)
* Packages specified by git repo can now have submodules. See
[#2133](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2133)
* Fix of hackage index fetch retry. See re-opening of
[#1418](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1418#issuecomment-217633843)
* HPack now picks up changes to filesystem other than package.yaml. See
[#2051](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2051)
* "stack solver" no longer suggests --omit-packages. See
[#2031](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2031)
* Fixed an issue with building Cabal's Setup.hs. See
[#1356](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1356)
* Package dirtiness now pays attention to deleted files. See
[#1841](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1841)
* `stack ghci` now uses `extra-lib-dirs` and `extra-include-dirs`. See
[#1656](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1656)
* Relative paths outside of source dir added via `qAddDependentFile` are now
checked for dirtiness. See
[#1982](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1982)
* Signing: always use `--with-fingerprints`
## 1.1.0 - 2016-05-04
Release notes:
* Added Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (xenial) Apt repo.
* No longer uploading new versions to Fedora 21 repo.
Behavior changes:
* Snapshot packages are no longer built with executable profiling. See
[#1179](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1179).
* `stack init` now ignores symlinks when searching for Cabal files. It also now
ignores any directory that begins with `.` (as well as `dist` dirs) - before
it would only ignore `.git`, `.stack-work`, and `dist`.
* The Stack executable is no longer built with `-rtsopts`. Before, when
`-rtsopts` was enabled, Stack would process `+RTS` options even when intended
for some other program, such as when used with `stack exec -- prog +RTS`.
See [#2022](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2022).
* The `stack path --ghc-paths` option is deprecated and renamed to `--programs`.
`--compiler` is added, which points directly at the compiler used in
the current project. `--compiler-bin` points to the compiler's bin dir.
* For consistency with the `$STACK_ROOT` environment variable, the
`stack path --global-stack-root` flag and the `global-stack-root` field
in the output of `stack path` are being deprecated and replaced with the
`stack-root` flag and output field.
Additionally, the Stack root can now be specified via the
`--stack-root` command-line flag. See
[#1148](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1148).
* `stack sig` GPG-related sub-commands were removed (folded into `upload` and
`sdist`)
* GPG signing of packages while uploading to Hackage is now the default. Use
`upload --no-signature` if you would rather not contribute your package
signature. If you don't yet have a GPG keyset, read this
[blog post on GPG keys](https://fpcomplete.com/blog/2016/05/stack-security-gnupg-keys).
We can add a `stack.yaml` config setting to disable signing if some people
desire it. We hope that people will sign. Later we will be adding GPG
signature verification options.
* `stack build pkg-1.2.3` will now build even if the snapshot has a different
package version - it is treated as an extra-dep. `stack build local-pkg-1.2.3`
is an error even if the version number matches the local package
[#2028](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2028).
* Having a `nix:` section no longer implies enabling nix build. This allows the
user to globally configure whether nix is used (unless the project overrides
the default explicitly). See
[#1924](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1924).
* Remove deprecated valid-wanted field.
* Docker: mount home directory in container
[#1949](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1949).
* Deprecate `stack path --local-bin-path`; instead use `--local-bin`.
* `stack image`: allow absolute source paths for `add`.
Other enhancements:
* `stack haddock --open [PACKAGE]` opens the local haddocks in the browser.
* Fix too much rebuilding when enabling/disabling profiling flags.
* `stack build pkg-1.0` will now build `pkg-1.0` even if the snapshot specifies
a different version (it introduces a temporary extra-dep)
* Experimental: Support for `--split-objs` added
[#1284](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1284).
* `git` packages with submodules are supported by passing the `--recursive`
flag to `git clone`.
* When using [Hpack](https://github.com/sol/hpack), only regenerate Cabal files
when Hpack files change.
* Hpack files can now be used in templates
* `stack ghci` now runs ghci as a separate process
[#1306](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1306)
* Retry when downloading snapshots and package indices
* Many build options are configurable now in `stack.yaml`:
~~~yaml
build:
library-profiling: true
executable-profiling: true
haddock: true
haddock-deps: true
copy-bins: true
prefetch: true
force-dirty: true
keep-going: true

coverage: true
no-run-tests: true
bench: true
benchmark-opts:
benchmark-arguments: -O2
no-run-benchmarks: true
reconfigure: true
cabal-verbose: true
~~~
* A number of URLs are now configurable, useful for firewalls. See
[#1794](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1884).
* Suggest causes when executables are missing.
* Allow `--omit-packages` even without `--solver`.
* Improve the generated `stack.yaml`.
* Improve ghci results after :load Main module collision with main file path.
* Only load the hackage index if necessary
[#1883](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1883),
[#1892](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1892).
* init: allow local packages to be deps of deps
[#1965](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1965).
* Always use full fingerprints from GPG
[#1952](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1952).
* Default to using `gpg2` and fall back to `gpg`
[#1976](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1976).
* Add a flag for --verbosity silent.
* Add `haddock --open` flag
[#1396](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1396).
Bug fixes:
* Package tarballs would fail to unpack.
[#1884](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1884).
* Fixed errant warnings about missing modules, after deleted and removed from
Cabal file [#921](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/921)
[#1805](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1805).
* Now considers a package to dirty when the Hpack file is changed
[#1819](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1819).
* Nix: cancelling a Stack build now exits properly rather than dropping into a
nix-shell [#1778](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1778).
* `allow-newer: true` now causes `--exact-configuration` to be passed to Cabal.
See [#1579](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1579).
* `stack solver` no longer fails with `InvalidRelFile` for relative package
paths including `..`. See
[#1954](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1954).
* Ignore emacs lock files when finding Cabal files
[#1897](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1897).
* Use lenient UTF-8 decode for build output
[#1945](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1945).
* Clear index cache whenever index updated
[#1962](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1962).
* Fix: Building a container image drops a .stack-work dir in the current working
(sub)directory
[#1975](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1975).
* Fix: Rebuilding when disabling profiling
[#2023](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2023).
## 1.0.4.3 - 2016-04-07
Bug fixes:
* Don't delete contents of ~/.ssh when using `stack clean --full` with Docker
enabled [#2000](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/2000)
## 1.0.4.2 - 2016-03-09
Build with `path-io-1.0.0`. There are no changes in behaviour from 1.0.4, so no
binaries are released for this version.
## 1.0.4.1 - 2016-02-21
Fixes build with `aeson-0.11.0.0`. There are no changes in behaviour from 1.0.4,
so no binaries are released for this version.
## 1.0.4 - 2016-02-20
Major changes:
* Some notable changes in `stack init`:
* Overall it should now be able to initialize almost all existing Cabal
packages out of the box as long as the package itself is consistently
defined.
* Choose the best possible snapshot and add extra-deps on top
of a snapshot other than a compiler snapshot -
[#1583](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1583)
* Automatically omit a package (`--omit-packages`) when it is compiler
incompatible or when there are packages with conflicting dependency
requirements. See
[#1674](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1674).
* Some more changes for a better user experience. Please refer to
the doc guide for details.
* Add support for Hpack, alternative package description format
[#1679](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1679)
Other enhancements:
* Docker: pass ~/.ssh and SSH auth socket into container, so that git repos
work [#1358](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1358).
* Docker: strip suffix from docker --version.
[#1653](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1653)
* Docker: pass USER and PWD environment variables into container.
* On each run, Stack will test the Stack root directory (~/.stack), and the
project and package work directories (.stack-work) for whether they are
owned by the current user and abort if they are not. This precaution can
be disabled with the `--allow-different-user` flag or `allow-different-user`
option in the global config (~/.stack/config.yaml).
[#471](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/471)
* Added `stack clean --full` option for full working dir cleanup.

* Add flag infos to DependencyPlanFailures (for better error output in case of
flags) [#713](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/713)
* `stack new --bare` complains for overwrites, and add `--force` option
[#1597](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1597).
Bug fixes:
* Previously, `stack ghci` would fail with `cannot satisfy -package-id` when the
implicit build step changes the package key of some dependency.
* Fix: Building with ghcjs: "ghc-pkg: Prelude.chr: bad argument: 2980338"
[#1665](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1665).
* Fix running test / bench with `--profile` / `--trace`.
* Fix: build progress counter is no longer visible
[#1685](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1685).
* Use "-RTS" w/ profiling to allow extra args
[#1772](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1772).
* Fix withUnpackedTarball7z to find name of srcDir after unpacking
(fixes `stack setup` fails for ghcjs project on windows)
[#1774](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1774).
* Add space before auto-generated bench opts (makes profiling options work
uniformly for applications and benchmark suites)
[#1771](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1771).
* Don't try to find plugin if it resembles flag.
* Setup.hs changes cause package dirtiness
[#1711](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1711).

[#1647](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1647)
## 1.0.0 - 2015-12-24
Release notes:
* We're calling this version 1.0.0 in preparation for Stackage
LTS 4. Note, however, that this does not mean the code's API
will be stable as this is primarily an end-user tool.
Enhancements:
* Added flag `--profile` flag: passed with `stack build`, it will
enable profiling, and for `--bench` and `--test` it will generate a
profiling report by passing `+RTS -p` to the executable(s). Great
for using like `stack build --bench --profile` (remember that
enabling profile will slow down your benchmarks by >4x). Run `stack
build --bench` again to disable the profiling and get proper speeds
* Added flag `--trace` flag: just like `--profile`, it enables
profiling, but instead of generating a report for `--bench` and
`--test`, prints out a stack trace on exception. Great for using
like `stack build --test --trace`
* Nix: all options can be overridden on command line
[#1483](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1483)
* Nix: build environments (shells) are now pure by default.
* Make verbosity silent by default in script interpreter mode
[#1472](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1472)
* Show a message when resetting git commit fails
[#1453](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1453)
* Improve Unicode handling in project/package names
[#1337](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1337)
* Fix ambiguity between a Stack command and a filename to execute (prefer
`stack` subcommands)
[#1471](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1471)
* Support multi line interpreter directive comments
[#1394](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1394)
* Handle space separated pids in ghc-pkg dump (for GHC HEAD)
[#1509](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1509)
* Add ghci --no-package-hiding option
[#1517](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1517)
* `stack new` can download templates from URL
[#1466](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1466)
Bug fixes:

[#1473](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1473)
## 0.1.10.0 - 2015-12-04
Release notes:
* The Stack home page is now at [haskellstack.org](http://haskellstack.org),
which shows the documentation rendered by readthedocs.org. Note: this
has necessitated some changes to the links in the documentation's markdown
source code, so please check the links on the website before submitting a PR
to fix them.
* The locations of the
[Ubuntu](http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#ubuntu)
and
[Debian](http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#debian)
package repositories have changed to have correct URL semantics according to
Debian's guidelines
[#1378](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1378). The old
locations will continue to work for some months, but we suggest that you
adjust your `/etc/apt/sources.list.d/fpco.list` to the new location to avoid
future disruption.
* [openSUSE and SUSE Linux Enterprise](http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#suse)
packages are now available, thanks to [@mimi1vx](https://github.com/mimi1vx).
Note: there will be some lag before these pick up new versions, as they are
based on Stackage LTS.
Major changes:
* Support for building inside a Nix-shell providing system dependencies
[#1285](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1285)

* Support git-style executable fall-through (`stack something` executes
`stack-something` if present)
[#1433](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1433)
* GHCi now loads intermediate dependencies
[#584](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/584)

## 0.1.8.0 - 2015-11-20
Major changes:
* GHCJS can now be used with stackage snapshots via the new `compiler` field.
* Windows installers are now available:
[download them here](http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/install_and_upgrade/#windows)
[#613](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/613)
* Docker integration works with non-FPComplete generated images
[#531](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/531)
Other enhancements:
* Added an `allow-newer` config option
[#922](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/922)
[#770](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/770)
* When a Hackage revision invalidates a build plan in a snapshot, trust the
snapshot [#770](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/770)
* Added a `stack config set resolver RESOLVER` command. Part of work on
[#115](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/115)
* `stack setup` can now install GHCJS on windows. See
[#1145](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1145) and
[#749](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/749)
* `stack hpc report` command added, which generates reports for HPC tix files
* `stack ghci` now accepts all the flags accepted by `stack build`. See
[#1186](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1186)
* `stack ghci` builds the project before launching GHCi. If the build fails,
try to launch GHCi anyway. Use `stack ghci --no-build` option to disable
[#1065](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1065)
* `stack ghci` now detects and warns about various circumstances where it is
liable to fail. See
[#1270](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1270)
* Added `require-docker-version` configuration option
* Packages will now usually be built along with their tests and benchmarks. See
[#1166](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1166)
* Relative `local-bin-path` paths will be relative to the project's root
directory, not the current working directory.
[#1340](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1340)
* `stack clean` now takes an optional `[PACKAGE]` argument for use in
multi-package projects. See
[#583](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/583)
* Ignore cabal_macros.h as a dependency
[#1195](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1195)
* Pad timestamps and show local time in --verbose output
[#1226](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1226)
* GHCi: Import all modules after loading them
[#995](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/995)

[#1241](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1241)
* Add typo recommendations for unknown package identifiers
[#158](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/158)

[#1105](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1105)
* Fix: Global options did not work consistently after subcommand
[#519](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/519)

[#1180](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1180)
* Rebuild when Cabal file is changed
* Fix: Paths in GHC warnings not canonicalized, nor those for packages in
subdirectories or outside the project root
[#1259](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1259)
* Fix: unlisted files in tests and benchmarks trigger extraneous second build
[#838](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/838)
## 0.1.6.0 - 2015-10-15
Major changes:
* `stack setup` now supports building and booting GHCJS from source tarball.
* On Windows, build directories no longer display "pretty" information
(like x86_64-windows/Cabal-1.22.4.0), but rather a hash of that
content. The reason is to avoid the 260 character path limitation on
Windows. See
[#1027](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1027)
* Rename config files and clarify their purposes
[#969](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/969)
* `~/.stack/stack.yaml` --> `~/.stack/config.yaml`
* `~/.stack/global` --> `~/.stack/global-project`
* `/etc/stack/config` --> `/etc/stack/config.yaml`
* Old locations still supported, with deprecation warnings
* New command "stack eval CODE", which evaluates to "stack exec ghc -- -e CODE".
Other enhancements:
* No longer install `git` on Windows
[#1046](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1046). You
can still get this behavior by running the following yourself:
`stack exec -- pacman -Sy --noconfirm git`.
* Typing enter during --file-watch triggers a rebuild
[#1023](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1023)
* Use Haddock's `--hyperlinked-source` (crosslinked source), if available
[#1070](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1070)
* Use Stack-installed GHCs for `stack init --solver`
[#1072](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1072)
* Experimental: Add `stack query` command
[#1087](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1087)
* By default, Stack no longer rebuilds a package due to GHC options changes.
This behavior can be tweaked with the `rebuild-ghc-options` setting.
[#1089](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1089)
* By default, ghc-options are applied to all local packages, not just targets.
This behavior can be tweaked with the `apply-ghc-options` setting.
[#1089](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1089)
* Docker: download or override location of Stack executable to re-run in
container [#974](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/974)
* Docker: when Docker Engine is remote, don't run containerized processes as
host's UID/GID [#194](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/194)
* Docker: `set-user` option to enable/disable running containerized processes as
host's UID/GID [#194](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/194)
* Custom Setup.hs files are now precompiled instead of interpreted. This should
be a major performance win for certain edge cases (biggest example:
[building Cabal itself](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1041))
while being either neutral or a minor slowdown for more common cases.
* `stack test --coverage` now also generates a unified coverage report for
multiple test-suites / packages. In the unified report, test-suites can
contribute to the coverage of other packages.
Bug fixes:
* Ignore stack-built executables named `ghc`
[#1052](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1052)
* Fix quoting of output failed command line arguments
* Mark executable-only packages as installed when copied from cache
[#1043](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1043)
* Canonicalize temporary directory paths
[#1047](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/1047)
* Put code page fix inside the build function itself
[#1066](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1066)
* Add `explicit-setup-deps` option
[#1110](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1110), and change
the default to the old behavior of using any package in the global and
snapshot database
[#1025](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1025)
* Precompiled cache checks full package IDs on Cabal < 1.22
[#1103](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1103)
* Pass -package-id to ghci
[#867](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/867)
* Ignore global packages when copying precompiled packages
[#1146](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1146)
## 0.1.5.0 - 2015-09-24
Major changes:
* On Windows, we now use a full MSYS2 installation in place of the previous
PortableGit. This gives you access to the pacman package manager for more
easily installing libraries.
* Support for custom GHC binary distributions
[#530](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/530)
* `ghc-variant` option in `stack.yaml` to specify the variant (also
`--ghc-variant` command-line option)
* `setup-info` in `stack.yaml`, to specify where to download custom binary
distributions (also `--ghc-bindist` command-line option)
* Note: On systems with libgmp4 (aka `libgmp.so.3`), such as CentOS 6, you
may need to re-run `stack setup` due to the centos6 GHC bindist being
treated like a variant
* A new `--pvp-bounds` flag to the sdist and upload commands allows automatic
adding of PVP upper and/or lower bounds to your dependencies
Other enhancements:
* Adapt to upcoming Cabal installed package identifier format change
[#851](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/851)
* `stack setup` takes a `--stack-setup-yaml` argument
* `--file-watch` is more discerning about which files to rebuild for
[#912](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/912)
* `stack path` now supports `--global-pkg-db` and `--ghc-package-path`
* `--reconfigure` flag
[#914](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/914)
[#946](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/946)
* Cached data is written with a checksum of its structure
[#889](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/889)
* Fully removed `--optimizations` flag
* Added `--cabal-verbose` flag
* Added `--file-watch-poll` flag for polling instead of using filesystem events
(useful for running tests in a Docker container while modifying code in the
host environment. When code is injected into the container via a volume, the
container won't propagate filesystem events).
* Give a preemptive error message when `-prof` is given as a GHC option
[#1015](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1015)
* Locking is now optional, and will be turned on by setting the `STACK_LOCK`
environment variable to `true`
[#950](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/950)
* Create default `stack.yaml` with documentation comments and commented out
options [#226](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/226)
* Out of memory warning if Cabal exits with -9
[#947](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/947)
Bug fixes:
* Hacky workaround for optparse-applicative issue with `stack exec --help`
[#806](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/806)
* Build executables for local extra-deps
[#920](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/920)
* copyFile can't handle directories
[#942](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/942)
* Support for spaces in Haddock interface files
[fpco/minghc#85](https://github.com/fpco/minghc/issues/85)
* Temporarily building against a "shadowing" local package?
[#992](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/992)
* Fix `Setup.exe` name for `--upgrade-cabal` on Windows
[#1002](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/1002)
* Unlisted dependencies no longer trigger extraneous second build
[#838](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/838)
## 0.1.4.1 - 2015-09-04
Fix stack's own Haddocks. No changes to functionality (only comments updated).
## 0.1.4.0 - 2015-09-04
Major changes:
* You now have more control over how GHC versions are matched, e.g. "use exactly
this version," "use the specified minor version, but allow patches," or "use
the given minor version or any later minor in the given major release." The
default has switched from allowing newer later minor versions to a specific
minor version allowing patches. For more information, see
[#736](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/736) and
[#784](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/pull/784).
* Support added for compiling with GHCJS
* Stack can now reuse prebuilt binaries between snapshots. That means that, if
you build package foo in LTS-3.1, that binary version can be reused in
LTS-3.2, assuming it uses the same dependencies and flags.
[#878](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/878)
Other enhancements:
* Added the `--docker-env` argument, to set environment variables in Docker
container.
* Set locale environment variables to UTF-8 encoding for builds to avoid
"commitBuffer: invalid argument" errors from GHC
[#793](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/793)
* Enable transliteration for encoding on stdout and stderr
[#824](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/824)
* By default, `stack upgrade` automatically installs GHC as necessary
[#797](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/797)
* Added the `ghc-options` field to `stack.yaml`
[#796](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/796)
* Added the `extra-path` field to `stack.yaml`
* Code page changes on Windows only apply to the build command (and its
synonyms), and can be controlled via a command line flag (still defaults to
on) [#757](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/757)
* Implicitly add packages to extra-deps when a flag for them is set
[#807](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/807)
* Use a precompiled Setup.hs for simple build types
[#801](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/801)
* Set --enable-tests and --enable-benchmarks optimistically
[#805](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/805)

* `--file-watch` will ignore files that are in your VCS boring/ignore files
[#703](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/703)
* Add `--numeric-version` option
Bug fixes:
* `stack init --solver` fails if `GHC_PACKAGE_PATH` is present
[#860](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/860)
* `stack solver` and `stack init --solver` check for test suite and benchmark
dependencies [#862](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/862)
* More intelligent logic for setting UTF-8 locale environment variables
[#856](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/856)
* Create missing directories for `stack sdist`
* Don't ignore Cabal files with extra periods
[#895](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/895)
* Deprecate unused `--optimizations` flag
* Truncated output on slow terminals
[#413](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/413)
## 0.1.3.1 - 2015-08-12
Bug fixes:
* Ignore disabled executables
[#763](https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/issues/763)
## 0.1.3.0 - 2015-08-12
Major changes:
