v0.53.0 (2020-02-27)

Full Changelog

Megazords

What's changed

• The fenix megazord is no more! (#2565)

  The full megazord should be used instead. The two are functionally identical,
  however this should reduce the configuration surface required to use the
  application-services code.

  An example PR showing the changes typically required for this is available
  here: MozillaReality/FirefoxReality#2867. Please feel
  free to reach out if you have any issues.

Sync

What's fixed

• Rust sync code is now more robust in the face of corrupt meta/global
  records. (#2688)

• In v0.52.0 we reported some network related fixes. We lied. This time
  we promise they are actually fixed. (#2616,
  #2617
  #2623)

What's changed

• Fewer updates to the 'clients' collection will be made. (#2624)

FxA Client

What's changed

• The ensureCapabilities method will not perform any network requests if the
  given capabilities are already registered with the server.
  (#2681)

What's fixed

• Ensure an offline migration recovery succeeding does not happen multiple times.
  (#2706)

Places

What's fixed

• storage::history::apply_observation and storage::bookmarks::update_bookmark
  now flush pending origin and frecency updates. This fixes a bug where origins
  might be flushed at surprising times, like right after clearing history.
  (#2693)

Push

What's fixed

• PushManager.dispatchInfoForChid does not throw KotlinNullPointerException anymore if the method returned nothing. (#2703)
