This release includes the following changes from the v0.6.x series:
- Added initial experimental support for synchronizing into Docker containers (both Linux and Windows containers). See full documentation here.
- Switched to Go 1.11 for builds. This has the side effect of making symlink support work automatically on Windows 10 when developer mode is enabled.
- Migrated to Go modules for dependency management.
- Fixed cgo compiler and linker flags to ensure compatibility with older versions of macOS.
- Refactored protocol handler infrastructure to allow for significantly easier implementation of new protocols.
- Switched to Protocol Buffers for Mutagen's internal endpoint protocol.
- Optimized rsync data transmissions with operation batching.
- Added support for doing
~user/path-style lookups (in addition to the existing~/path-style lookups) in synchronization root paths. - Added an optional "tag" component to version information to make dev/beta/rc/etc. releases easier.
