Release Notes

• Text snapshots no longer contain snapshot_type: text in their metadata. For context, we originally added this in the prior release (1.41.0) to support binary snapshots, but some folks disliked the diff noise on any snapshot changes, and the maintainers' weighted votes favored reverting. I apologize that this will cause some additional churn for those who used cargo insta test --force-update-snapshots to update their snapshots to the 1.41 format; running this again with 1.42 will remove those metadata entries. To confirm: this doesn't affect whether snapshot tests pass or fail — the worst impact is some additional diffs in metadata. #690
• Pending snapshots are no longer removed throughout the workspace by cargo-insta before running tests. Instead, running a test will overwrite or remove its own pending snapshot. To remove all pending snapshots, use cargo insta reject or run tests with --unreferenced=delete. #651
• insta::internals::SettingsBindDropGuard (returned from Settings::bind_to_scope) no longer implements Send. This was incorrect and any tests relying on this behavior where not working properly. Fixes #694 in #695 by @jalil-salame
