- Include distribution artifact URLs and hashes in CycloneDX SBOM exports by default ([#21131](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/21131))
- Fall back to logical file sizes when using `cache-physical-space` on filesystems that do not support physical-space accounting ([#21133](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/pull/21133))

## Verifying GitHub Artifact Attestations

The artifacts in this release have attestations generated with GitHub Artifact Attestations. These can be verified by using the [GitHub CLI](https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_attestation_verify):
```sh
gh attestation verify <file-path of downloaded artifact> --repo astral-sh/uv
```

You can also download the attestation from [GitHub](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/attestations) and verify against that directly:
```sh
gh attestation verify <file-path of downloaded artifact> --bundle <file-path of downloaded attestation>
```
