  • Fix MSYS2 support [#5843 @rjbou - fix #5683]
  • Properly test if "we're in interactive mode" instead of "in a tty" in fish script [#5866 @ElectreAAS]
  • Make the computation of the init default sys-ocaml-* eval variables on Windows faster, no more depending on Cygwin [#5829 @dra27 @rjbou]

Source

  • Using opam source --dev with git repositories doesn't fetch with --depth 1 [#5888 @moyodiallo - fix #5061]

Var/Option

Repository

Opamfile

  • Hijack the "%{var?string-if-true:string-if-false-or-undefined}%" syntax to support extending the variables of packages with + in their name (conf-c++ and conf-g++ already exist) using "%{?pgkname:var:}%" [#5840 @kit-ty-kate]

Lint

  • Add warning 69: Warn for new syntax when package name in variable in string interpolation contains several '+' [#5840 @rjbou]

Sandbox

API updates

opam-client

  • OpamClient.windows_checks: On existing Cygwin install, permit to detect msys2 and store os-distribution=msys2 in global-variables config file field [#5843 @rjbou]
  • OpamClient.windows_checks: When updating config file for msys2, resolve pacman path and store it in sys-pkg-manager-cmd for msys2 [#5843 @rjbou]
  • OpamArg.apply_global_options: load MSYS2 Cygwin binary path too [#5843 @rjbou]

opam-repository

  • OpamRepositoryBackend.S.pull_url, OpamVCS.fetch, OpamRepository.pull_tree: add full_fetch optional argument to pull full history if url is a VCS [#5888 @moyodiallo - fix #5061]

  • OpamEnv.env_expansion: Fix detection of out-of-date environment variables, a filter predicate was inverted [#5837 @dra27]
  • OpamSysInteract.Cygwin.check_install: add variant argument to permit checking that it is an Cygwin-like install if it is set to true, keep checking that it is a strictly Cygwin install if false [#5843 @rjbou]
  • OpamSysInteract.Cygwin.check_install: look for cygcheck.exe in usr/bin also as MSYS2 doesn't have "bin" [#5843 @rjbou]
  • OpamGlobalState.load_config: load MSYS2 Cygwin binary path too at config file loading [#5843 @rjbou]
  • OpamEnv: add sys_ocaml_eval_variables value, moved OpamInitDefaults as it is also needed in OpamFormatUpgrade too [#5829 @rjbou @kit-ty-kate]
  • OpamEnv supports an internal Cygwin environment operation which pushes the given directory as far down the list as can be done without shadowing. This mechanism replaces the opposite which was done in OpamProcess [#5832 @dra27]

opam-format

  • OpamFile.InitConfig: add sys-pkg-manager-cmd field [#5847 @rjbou]
  • OpamTypesBase: add filter_ident_of_string_interp that is used for parsing variables in string interpolation like filter_ident_of_string but permits the parsing of '%{?pkg+:var:}%' syntax [#5840 @rjbou]

2.2.0~alpha Pre-release
Pre-release

This is the alpha release of opam 2.2.0.

This alpha release contains new features, enhancements, updates & fixes. Please see blog post for main new features highlights and upgrade instructions.

Binaries and full archive are signed by by opam dev team (fingerprint 92C5 26AE 50DF 3947 0EB2 911B ED4C F1CA 67CB AA92).

Changelog (possibly scripts breaking changes are prefixed with ✘):

New features

Windows Support

Opam 2.2 comes with native Windows compatibility. You can now use opam from your preferred Windows terminal! We rely on the Cygwin UNIX-like environment for Windows as a compatibility layer, but it is possible for packages to generate native executables.

For more details, see blog post entry.

Recursive Pin

Recursive pinning allows to have opam lookup for opam files into subdirectories. It provides 2 new options --recursive and --subpath <path> that permit, respectively, to lookup recursively in directories, and to focus on a given directory. They can be combined.

For more details, see blog post entry.

Tree

opam tree show packages and their dependencies on a tree view. It can also display a reverse-dependency tree (through opam why, which is an alias to opam tree --rev-deps`), which can be useful to examine how dependency versions get constrained.

For more details, see blog post entry.

  • Add tree subcommand to display a dependency tree of currently installed packages [#5171 @cannorin - fix #3775]
  • Add why subcommand to examine how the versions of currently installed packages get constrained (alias to tree --rev-deps) [#5171 @cannorin - fix #3775]
  • tree subcommand now supports --json option [#5303 @cannorin - fix #5298]

Recommended development tools

There is now a way for a project maintainer to share their project developments tools: the with-dev-setup dependency flag. It is used in the same way as with-doc and with-test.

For more details, see blog post entry.

  • Add --dev-setup option to install recommended development tools from opam file (as with-test/with-doc), and its environment variable OPAMWITHDEVSETUP, and for post-messages [#5016 #5160 #5214 @rjbou - fix #4959]
  • Opam file: Add with-dev-setup variable for recommended tools [#5016 #5214 @rjbou]

Software Heritage binding

Opam now integrates a fallback to Software Heritage archive retrieval, based on SWHID. If an SWHID url is present in an opam file, the fallback can be activated.

For more details, see blog post entry.

Formula (experimental)

It is now possible to leverage the full expressivity of package dependency formulas from the command-line during switch creation and package operations.

  • Add --formula option to specify a formula to install [#4975 @AltGr]

New options

Pin

  • New option opam pin --current to fix a package to its current state (disabling pending reinstallations or removals from the repository) [#4973 @AltGr - fix #4970]
  • Add opam pin remove --all to remove all the pinned packages from a switch [#5308 @kit-ty-kate]
  • Allow opam pin remove to take a package (<pkg>.<version>) as argument [#5325 @kit-ty-kate]

Exec

Source

Clean

  • Add --untracked option to remove untracked files interactively [#4915 @rjbou - fix #4831] {2.1.3}

Switch

  • Add support for opam switch - that goes to previous selected global switch [#4910 @kit-ty-kate - fix #4688]
  • ✘ Change --base into --invariant, column name and the content is invariant formula installed dependencies [#5208 @rjbou]

Admin

  • Add opam admin add-constraint <cst> --packages to select a subset of packages to apply constraints [#5386 @rjbou - fix #3077]

Repository

  • Add OPAMREPOSITORYTARRING environment variable to enable repository tarring optimisation, it is disabled by default because it is an optimisation only on some os/configurations [#5015 @rjbou]

Changelog:

Fixes

Init

  • Fix opam init and opam init --reinit when the jobs variable has been set in the opamrc or the current config. [#5056 @rjbou]

Switch

  • When inferring a 2.1+ switch invariant from 2.0 base packages, don't filter out pinned packages as that causes very wide invariants for pinned compiler packages [#5176 @dra27 - fix #4501]

Pin

  • When reinstalling a package that has a dirty source, if uncommitted changes are the same than the ones stored in opam's cache , opam consider that it is up to date and nothing is updated [#4879 @rjbou]

List

  • Some optimisations to opam list --installable queries combined with other filters [#4882 @AltGr - fix #4311]
  • Improve performance of some opam list combinations (e.g. --available, --installable) [#4999 @kit-ty-kate]
  • Improve performance of opam list --conflicts-with when combined with other filters [#4999 @kit-ty-kate]

Show

  • Improve performance of opam show by as much as 300% when the package to show is given explicitly or is unique [#4998 @kit-ty-kate - fix #4997 and partially #4172]
  • Handle external dependencies when updating switch state pin status (all pins), instead as a post pin action (only when called with opam pin [#5047 @rjbou - fix #5046]

Var/Option

  • opam var no longer fails if no switch is set [#5027 @rjbou - fix #5025]
  • Setting a variable with option --switch <sw> fails instead of writing an invalid switch-config file [#5027 @rjbou]
  • When a field is defined in switch and global scope, try to determine the scope also by checking switch selection [#5027 @rjbou]

External dependencies

Sandbox

  • Clearer error message if a command doesn't exist [#4971 @kit-ty-kat - fix #4112]

State

  • Actually allow multiple state caches to co-exist [#4934 @dra27 - actually fixes #4554]

Binaries and full archive are signed by by opam dev team (fingerprint 92C5 26AE 50DF 3947 0EB2 911B ED4C F1CA 67CB AA92).

Changelog:

Bug fixes

Switch

  • Put back support for switch creation with packages argument and --packages option with cli 2.0, and a specific error message for cli 2.1 [#4853 @rjbou - fix #4843]
  • Fix set-invariant: default repos were loaded instead of switch repos [#4866 @rjbou]

  • Archlinux: handle virtual package detection [#4833 @rjbou - partial fix #4759]

Sandbox

System

  • OpamSystem: avoid calling Unix.environment at top level [#4789 @hannesm] [#4802 @kit-ty-kate - fix #4801]
  • Handle empty environment variable updates - missed cherry-pick from 2.0 [#4840 @dra27]

opam build

  • Fix the cold target in presence of an older OCaml compiler version on macOS
  • Fix vendored build on mingw-w64 with g++ 11.2 [#4835 @dra27]
