stack v1.1.2 Release Notes

  • 🚀 Release notes:

    Major changes:

    • Extensible custom snapshots implemented. These allow you to define snapshots 👀 which extend other snapshots. See #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
    • 📦 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
    • ⬆️ stack upgrade no longer pays attention to local stack.yaml files, just the global config and CLI options. #1392
    • stack ghci now uses :add instead of :load, making it potentially work better with user scripts. See #1888

    Other enhancements:

    • Grab Cabal files via Git SHA to avoid regressions from Hackage revisions #2070
    • 👍 Custom snapshots now support ghc-options.
    • 👀 Package git repos are now re-used rather than re-cloned. See #1620
    • 👀 DESTDIR is filtered from environment when installing GHC. See #1460
    • 👀 stack haddock now supports --hadock-arguments. See #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
    • 👀 Packages specified by git repo can now have submodules. See #2133
    • 🛠 Fix of hackage index fetch retry. See re-opening of #1418
    • 👀 HPack now picks up changes to filesystem other than package.yaml. See #2051
    • 👀 "stack solver" no longer suggests --omit-packages. See #2031
    • 🛠 Fixed an issue with building Cabal's Setup.hs. See #1356
    • 👀 Package dirtiness now pays attention to deleted files. See #1841
    • 👀 stack ghci now uses extra-lib-dirs and extra-include-dirs. See #1656
    • Relative paths outside of source dir added via qAddDependentFile are now checked for dirtiness. See #1982
    • 🖨 Signing: always use --with-fingerprints
