Full Release Notes

This release contains a hotfix for a regression in v2.6.3 related to proxying chunked requests. We recommend that all users who do so upgrade to v2.6.4.

Note that, in an effort to make error-prone configs less likely, we have deprecated the reverse proxy options:

- `buffer_requests`
- `buffer_responses`
- `max_buffer_size`

and have introduced 2 new ones which take a size argument to enable buffering:

- `request_buffers <size>`
- `response_buffers <size>`

The deprecated options will be removed in a later version of Caddy, so please start using the new parameters instead.
