Summary of changes from April 27, 2019 to May 16, 2019.

• These changes were promoted to stable.

General

• This release includes some significant changes to repository behavior and terminology. See 2019 Week 17 (Very Late April) for additional details.

Security

• You can now find a list of dependencies at Dependencies. Note that this list is maintained manually and intended as a general starting point for understanding dependencies, not an unimpeachable source of truth.

Upgrading / Compatibility

• Removed partially implemented WePay support from Phortune and "Httpful" and "Restful" dependencies. The WePay binding was never made production-ready and this allowed us to remove about 5,000 lines of dependencies.
• Removed the PhabricatorQuickSearchEngineExtension class. This has existed only for backward compatibility, and callers have had about a year to update. If you still rely on it, update your code to extend PhabricatorDatasourceEngineExtension instead.

Minor

• [] Fixed an issue with pylint version strings in arc.
• Fixed a possible double prompt in arc when landing a revision with ongoing or failed builds.
• [] Interdiffs in Differential show now show metadata changes (like file mode changes) correctly. Previously, some metadata changes incorrectly examined only part of the diff.
• Editing existing dashboard panels from a dashboard should no longer cause panel duplication.
• [] The "Limit" is now editable again for Query panels.
• [] When a commit "reverts <commit-hash>", it now also reverts any associated revision.
• [] Added a "Revision has build failures" Herald rule for commits. This rule is true if: (a) the commit has an associated revision; and (b) the revision has ongoing or failed builds that warn according to the "Warn When Landing" behaviors of their associated build plans.
• [] Added a "Customize Query" action to query panels to make it easier to make adjustments.
• [] Added "Move Left" and "Move Right" actions to tab panels.
• Almost certainly stopped panels inside tab panels from becoming senselessly draggable.
• [] Navigating to a workboard after removing the workboard menu item no longer fatals.
• [] When a task is locked, subscribes/mentions (which do not require edit/interact perrrmission) no longer show a "Lock Overridden" emblem in the timeline.
• [] When viewing a workboard, the crumbs now link to parent workboards only if parents actually have workboards.
• [] Herald now formally bundles transactions as part of the state it will act upon, blurring the line between "state-triggered" and "change-triggered" behavior and bringing us a step closer to doom.
• [] Added a "Published document changed" Herald field to Phriction document rules. You can use this field to act when an edit affects the published document, while ignoring edits which only affect drafts.
• [] Auth now supports customizable "Wait for Approval" instructions, which can be used to add words of comfort and reassurance.
• [] The "draft", "summary", and "testPlan" transactions in Differential now return types and data from transaction.search.
• [] Subscribers transactions also now return types and data from transaction.search.
• If you search for Phabricator URI, the search box now acts as a location bar.
• [] In common cases, links within an install in Remarkup contexts should now be rendered in a specialized way and have hovercard support.
• [] The "Branches" view in Diffusion should now be more clear about which refs are permanent.
• [] Improved performance of tab replacement in some common cases. This mostly affects very large machine-generated source files.
