What's New

Introduces lockfile revision 2 and dotfile conflict inspection.

Breaking Changes

  • Lockfile revision 2 requires running `mise lock --upgrade`.
  • Project-level `history.describe_command` configuration is ignored.
  • OCI build templates cannot call `secret()`, `get_env()`, `exec()`, or `read_file()`.

New Features

  • New `mise bootstrap dotfiles conflicts` command.
  • Lockfile revision 2 records transitive dependency graphs for npm and Python.
  • Dotfile templates can reference bootstrap secrets.
  • Support for `mise install --locked` to replay recorded dependency graphs.

Improvements

  • Security updates restrict `history.describe_command` to global config.
  • Security updates restrict OCI build templates to prevent credential exposure.
  • Support for `mise lock --bump` to refresh transitive graphs.
  • `pypi:` is now the preferred name for the Python CLI backend.

Bug Fixes

  • `minimum_release_age` no longer rejects versions committed to lockfiles.
  • Closes security gap in `history.describe_command`.

Upgrade Notes

Run `mise lock --upgrade` to migrate existing lockfiles to revision 2. Move `history.describe_command` configuration from project-level to global config or environment variables. Update OCI build templates to remove restricted functions like `secret()` and `read_file()`.
