Upgrades should happen transparently, but downgrading back to 1.7.0 will likely cause problems for lei users (and only lei users). lei users may experience duplicate messages in Maildirs if attempting to downgrade from 1.8.0 to 1.7.x. public-inbox-* tools are unaffected and may downgrade freely. Bugfixes: Numerous test fixes thanks to NixOS developers. Long-running daemons are more robust in case of corrupt blobs or crashes of git-cat-file processes PublicInbox::WWW: all CR are removed before LF, fixing display of CR-CR-LF messages. Solver supports SHA-256 code repositories (inbox and lei store support is still pending). Internal updates: Reduced dependencies on Inline::C for Linux users; Linux users may now use lei with neither Inline::C nor Socket::MsgHdr installed. New features: The --dangerous flag is now supported in public-inbox-index and public-inbox-extindex to use the Xapian::DB_DANGEROUS flag for initial indexes. This may reduce SSD/HDD wear at the expense of disallowing concurrency and data integrity in case of an unexpected shutdown.
