Are there any notable changes?
The changelog, which points to the commit log, is pretty atrocious to read through and the commits themselves are not very descriptive.
- petercooper 10y agoI'm still only a little way into analyzing it, but here's what I wrote for my own summary so far: Along with the usual tweaks, Onigmo has been updated (and now supports a new operator), OpenSSL (2.0.2 to 2.0.3), RubyGems (2.6.8 to 2.6.10), a race between read and close has been fixed, fixing including multiple proc blocks as literal hash values, and more. I'm particularly interested to work out what the new 'absent operator' in regexes is for and am studying it now: https://github.com/k-takata/Onigmo/issues/82 https://github.com/k-takata/Onigmo/issues/82
- rubyn00bie 10y agoThat's yuge! (about the absent operator) very, very cool too bad it wasn't on the release page I think this would be getting more up votes.
- petercooper 10y agoI'm doing my own write up of both the operator and the overall release with the most major changes for Ruby Weekly tomorrow, simply because, yeah, I can't really link to the main release page as it has nothing on it(!) :-)

- petercooper 10y agoAnd I've done that as well now: https://medium.com/rubyinside/the-new-absent-operator-in-ruby-s-regular-expressions-7c3ef6cd0b99#.ojki501p9 https://medium.com/rubyinside/the-new-absent-operator-in-rub... Now to sleep..!
