• Added a new --exclude CLI argument to exclude a list of sniffs from checking and fixing (request #904)
  • Accepts the same sniff codes as the --sniffs command line argument, but provides the opposite functionality
• Added a new -q command line argument to disable progress and verbose information from being printed (request #969)
  • Useful if a coding standard hard-codes progess or verbose output but you want PHPCS to be quiet
  • Use the command "phpcs --config-set quiet true" to turn quiet mode on by default
• Generic LineLength sniff no longer errors for comments that cannot be broken out onto a new line (request #766)
  • A typical case is a comment that contains a very long URL
  • The comment is ignored if putting the URL on a indented new comment line would be longer than the allowed length
• Settings extensions in a ruleset no longer causes PHP notices during unit testing
  • Thanks to Klaus Purer for the patch
• Version control reports now show which errors are fixable if you are showing sources
• Added a new sniff to enforce a single space after a NOT operator (request #1051)
  • Include in a ruleset using the code Generic.Formatting.SpaceAfterNot
• The Squiz.Commenting.BlockComment sniff now supports tabs for indenting comment lines (request #1056)
