Release Notes

✨ Highlights

Manifest file parsing has been significantly improved.
Errors will now be clearer and more helpful, for example:

         × Expected one of 'first-index', 'unsafe-first-match', 'unsafe-best-match'
          ╭─[pixi.toml:2:27]
        1 │
        2 │         index-strategy = "UnsafeFirstMatch"
          ·                           ────────────────
        3 │
          ╰────
         help: Did you mean 'unsafe-first-match'?

Breaking Change Alert:

The depends_on field has been renamed to depends-on for better consistency.
Using the old format without a dash (depends_on) will now result in an error.
The new errors should help you find the location:

Error:
  × field 'depends_on' is deprecated, 'depends-on' has replaced it
    ╭─[pixi.toml:22:51]
 21 │ install = "cargo install --path . --locked"
 22 │ install-as = { cmd = "python scripts/install.py", depends_on = [
    ·                                                   ─────┬────
    ·                                                        ╰── replace this with 'depends-on'
 23 │   "build-release",
