This release graduates mise bootstrap and mise dotfiles out of experimental mode, teaches mise install to reconcile Rust components and targets, and restores Linux arm64 glibc compatibility for release builds.

Added

  • Bootstrap and dotfiles are now stable. mise bootstrap and all of its subcommands (packages, repos, macOS/Linux user services, shell activation, login shell) plus mise dotfiles no longer require experimental mode, so they work with MISE_EXPERIMENTAL=0. The related mise doctor diagnostics (system packages, macOS defaults, login-shell drift) and the missing [bootstrap.packages] hint on mise install are always on as well (#10869 by @jdx).
  • Skip re-installs in the mise.run install script. Setting MISE_INSTALL_SKIP_IF_EXISTS avoids re-downloading mise when the requested version is already present at the install path, which is handy for CI/Docker builds that re-run the installer on every build (#10882 by @JamBalaya56562):
    curl https://mise.run | MISE_INSTALL_SKIP_IF_EXISTS=1 sh
    Only the resolved install path is checked (not the wider PATH), and default behavior is unchanged unless you opt in.

Fixed

  • install: the Rust backend now asks rustup whether the configured components and targets are actually installed before skipping an install, so mise install reconciles missing components/targets on an already-installed toolchain instead of treating a bare symlink as complete. Array-form config is now parsed (with trimming and empty-entry filtering) and host-suffixed component names are matched (#10876 by @jdx).
  • task: task_source_files() is once again available when a task defines usage args and its run script is re-rendered with parsed CLI values (#10870 by @jdx).
  • upgrade: mise upgrade --minimum-release-age no longer prints a misleading "newer release ignored" warning when the installed version already satisfies the hidden latest release (#10877 by @jdx).
  • build: pinned the aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu cross image back to a fixed tag and added a shared glibc-floor check to release packaging, restoring predictable glibc compatibility for Linux arm64 tarballs (#10875 by @jdx).

Performance

  • install: missing-version detection now runs each backend's install-satisfaction check in parallel, speeding up detection for larger tool sets (a follow-up to the Rust reconciliation work). If the parallel batch fails it falls back to a sequential pass so the missing list stays accurate (#10881 by @jdx).

Changed

  • registry: the Scala shorthand now resolves to the canonical vfox:mise-plugins/vfox-scala fork; the asdf:mise-plugins/mise-scala fallback is unchanged (#10864 by @jdx).

Documentation

  • Fixed the broken bootstrap docs intro, linked the bootstrap sub-pages, and made a style/consistency pass across the bootstrap pages (#10878, #10880 by @jdx).
  • Fixed broken source-code links in the generated CLI reference (#10879 by @jdx).
