Changes in 1.2.3
================
This is a minor bug-fix release that fixes cloning `file://` URIs with
git 2.38.1 or newer.
Changes in 1.2.2
================
This is a security update to resolve CVE-2022-21682.
Upgrading both Flatpak and flatpak-builder is required.
CVE-2022-21682 is a vulnerability in how flatpak-builder uses flatpak,
which can cause `flatpak-builder --mirror-screenshots-url` commands to be
allowed to create directories outside the build directory.
flatpak-builder >= 1.2.2 uses a new option `--nofilesystem=host:reset`
to cancel out filesystem permissions in the application manifest and
overrides. This is only effective when using Flatpak >= 1.12.4, or a
version that has a backport of the `--nofilesystem=host:reset` feature
(such as 1.10.x versions >= 1.10.7).
When using an older version of Flatpak, this version of flatpak-builder
will still work, but it will show a warning: "Unexpected filesystem
suffix reset, ignoring". In this situation, it is still vulnerable
to CVE-2022-21682.
Other changes:
* Make FUSE 2 optimizations opt-in.
By default, this version of flatpak-builder is compatible with versions
of ostree that have been compiled against either FUSE 2 or FUSE 3.
Older distributions that use FUSE 2 can configure --with-fuse=2 for better
performance, but the resulting flatpak-builder executable will not work
with versions of ostree >= 2022.1 that have been compiled with FUSE 3
(this is the same behaviour as in 1.2.1).
* Make the JSON schema introduced in 1.2.1 more complete
Changes in 1.2.1
================
* Fix debuginfo being re-processed multiple times in a manifest
* Change manifest parsing issues from warnings to fatal errors
* Add `.tar.zst` archive support
* Fix auto-detection of `.7z` archives
* Install a JSON schema for manifest format
* Documentation updates
Changes in 1.2.0
================
* Documentation updates
* Add missing newlines in some output
* Fix missing error check in the new inline data support
Changes in 1.1.2
================
* New secret-opts feature lets you pass e.g. CI secrets into the build.
* Support content-encoding when downloading.
* New inline data source allowing easy creation of files from embedded content from
the manifest.
Changes in 1.1.1
================
This is the first unstable relase in preparation for 1.2.0
* We now use the external debugedit project instead of using an internal copy.
The system version can be used, or if not an internal version is used
built using git submodules.
Note, this needs libdw 0.172, which may not be available on older distributions.
Changes in 1.0.14
=================
* Ensure that sources cannot create files outside the build directory.
* If --sandbox is enabled, ensure sources can't real files outside the
manifest directory.
Changes in 1.0.13
=================
* Fix a bug where git submodules were bundled even when disabled (whereas in
the previous release this issue was fixed for the extraction phase)
* For bundled extensions, use the specified version as the branch rather than
using the branch of the parent app
Changes in 1.0.12
=================
* Make --run work if manifest has --metadata in build-finish
* Don't try to extract git submodules if they were disabled
Changes in 1.0.11
=================
* Use brz instead of bzr fom bzr repos (if available)
* Fix `run-tests` with --sandbox and empty test-args

Changes in 1.0.6
================
* Pass --noninteractive when installing for flatpak >= 1.2.0
* Doc fixes
Changes in 1.0.5
================
Due to a change in the output of "flatpak info" the support for
loading default build options from the sdk regressed with flatpak
1.2.x. This is fixed and everyone who built flatpaks with 1.2.x are
recommended to update to this release and re-build.
Changes in 1.0.4
================
* Add --add/remove-tag options
* Allow using a full ref as sdk and use the branch from that.
Changes in 1.0.3

* New property `paths` in patch source to apply multiple patches.
Major changes in 0.99.3
=======================
* Add X-Flatpak-RenamedFrom key to renamed desktop files
* Set FLATPAK_BUILDER_BUILDDIR when building module
* Handle large downloads better
* Make p2p code non-optional
Major changes in 0.99.2
=======================
* Fix --install not working due to asking for confirmation
* Fix builds with latest libsoup
* New option git-init for archives
* New option use-git-am for patches
Major changes in 0.99.1
=======================
In preparation for 1.0, this release depends on a recent (0.11.8) flatpak.
* New libdir build option
* Support loading default options from sdk
* Add support for overriding c/cpp/ld/etc flags in a module
* Now uses libcurl to download things instead of soup,
which means we now support ftp urls.

* archive sources support dest-filename
* archive and file sources now support mirror-urls to list
extra urls in case of network problems.

========================
* We now support yaml manifest as well as json.
* New source type "svn" to download subversion checkouts.
* New source type "dir" for local directories.
* Set FLATPAK_BUILDER_N_JOBS in environment during build.
* If not using ccache, enfore it of. This helps builds with
meson as they pick up ccache by default, which makes no
sense when there is no persistent storage for ccache to use.
* New options prepend-*-path similar to the existing append-*-path
ones, but prepending instead.
* New argument --no-shallow-clone which disables any shallow clone
optimizations.
* New inherit-sdk-extensions property similar to inherit-extensions,
but is not inherited in the platform.
* We now ignore json keys starting with "//" and "__" allowing these
to be used for comments.
* Fixed a bug that caused --install to not work properly.
* New argument --extension-tag for using the new tagged extension feature.
* The build metadata now records which extensions were produced as part
of a build.
* New property add-build-extensions allows creating exension points that

allowing it to work when building runtimes.

* Fix build on glibc 2.27
Major changes in 0.10.8
=======================

* Support including source snippets from another file, similar to
how module includes are supported.
* The app id renaming in the appdata file is now more careful to
avoid renaming other parts.
* The cache default repo format for new caches is now bare-user-only
which means building with flatpak-builder works on filesystems that
don't support xattrs.
* New --install argument will install the finished build using the
new flatpak install install-directly-from-local-repo feature.
This makes it easier to test local builds.
Major changes in 0.10.5
=======================
* Add support for running tests during the build (disable with --disable-tests).
* New build-option append-pkg-config to append to PKG_CONFIG_PATH

* Allow git sources to use "HEAD" branch
* Fixed crashes in some cases of git failure

fsck during transfer when doing a shallow clone and the git version
is less than 1.8.3.2.

=======================
* Even more fixes for shallow git clones with older versions of git
* New property for git sources, disable-shallow-clone which falls
back to cloning the entire remote.
Major changes in 0.10.1
=======================
* Fix handling of shallow git clones with older versions of git
* Fix issue where flatpak-builder --run could exit if some
thread in the parent process exited, exposeb by e.g.

option is specified.

a lot less space.
