Changes

  • The --exec/-x option does not spawn an intermediate shell anymore. This improves the
    performance of parallel command execution and fixes a whole class of (present and potentially
    future) problems with shell escaping. The drawback is that shell commands cannot directly be
    called with --exec. See #155 for the full discussion. These changes have been implemented by
    @reima (Thanks!).

Bugfixes

  • --exec does not escape cmd.exe metacharacters on Windows (see #155, as above).

Other

  • fd is now available in the FreeBSD ports (@andoriyu)
  • The minimal rustc version is now checked when building with cargo, see #164 (@matematikaadit)
  • The output directory for the shell completion files is created if it does not exist (@andoriyu)
