Thank you to everyone who filed issues and contributed to the release!

Changes

• Fish Support!
  • Developers who use Fish can now start devbox shell, execute scripts with devbox run, and start services using devbox services start
  • This should address Issue #401
• New Plugins
  • Redis + Caddy
  • Addresses requests #411 and #416
• Plugin Improvement:
  • postgresql now uses PGHOST to set a local Linux Socket
• Direnv Integration Improvements
  • We now generate a .envrc file on init, and will prompt you to activate direnv if we detect it on your system.
  • Our .envrc file can now set environment variables from plugins.
  • Other reliability improvements
  • Addresses Issue #408
• Bash + devbox run
  • Fixed a bug that kept bash users from running devbox scripts
    • Addresses issue #402
• Set allowUnfree=true by default. This allows developers to install packages with unfree licenses in Nixpkgs.
  • Addresses issue #409
• Devbox will now look for Nix binaries using an absolute path, instead of $PATH.
  • This should make WSL and other Nix installations more reliable.
    • Addresses issues #400 and #405
• Quiet mode
  • Turn off Devbox's status logging when running devbox shell or devbox run using the --quiet flag
    • Addresses issue #406
