github-markup 6.1.0

v6.1.0

on Ruby Gems

Replacement for withdrawn 7.0.0

Version 6.1.0 replaces the withdrawn 7.0.0 release. The renderer implementations and dependency requirements are unchanged.

This minor-numbered release retains the known breaking CommonMarker changes below. It does not restore the older CommonMarker behavior.

Ruby 3.3 or later is still required.

commonmarker remains optional and is not a declared runtime dependency. The development bundle uses ~> 2.8.2, locked at 2.8.2; consumer applications must select a compatible version themselves.

Install the replacement from RubyGems.

Known breaking compatibility changes

• Require commonmarker 2.x when using the CommonMarker renderer; upgrade existing commonmarker 0.x installations #2059.
• Accept VALIDATE_UTF8, LIBERAL_HTML_TAG, TABLE_PREFER_STYLE_ATTRIBUTES, and STRIKETHROUGH_DOUBLE_TILDE without applying them #2059.
• Preserve soft line breaks with NOBREAKS instead of converting them to spaces #2059.
• Apply HARDBREAKS and NOBREAKS in their supplied order; the last flag wins, replacing the old HARDBREAKS precedence #2059.

Bug Fixes

• Support RDoc 8 formatter initialization and declare rdoc < 9 as a runtime dependency #2109, #2104.
• Restore reStructuredText section and table-of-contents anchors with docutils 0.18 and later #2081, #2087.

Development

• Update development dependencies to commonmarker 2.8.2, html-pipeline 3.2, minitest 6, and activesupport 8.1.
• Require 100% measured line and branch coverage and load gem metadata without loading renderers #2072.

Existing installations

Withdrawing 7.0.0 does not modify existing installations. Constraints such as ~> 7.0 won't select 6.1.0; update those constraints to select the replacement.

The withdrawn release and its original tag remain available for traceability.
