Hot on the heels of beta1, we are happy to announce the release of opam 2.6.0~beta2.
This version is a beta, we invite users to test it to spot previously unnoticed bugs as we head towards the stable release.
Main changes compared to 2.6.0~beta1
The main change is a fix of a performance regression compared to opam 2.5, where opam project trees were scanned for nothing, when pinning them, making commands such as opam install --deps-only . excruatingly slow on large projects (#7098)
You can read our blog post for more information about these changes and more, and for even more details you can take a look at the release note or the changelog.
Try it!
The upgrade instructions are unchanged:
For Unix systems
bash -c "sh <(curl -fsSL https://opam.ocaml.org/install.sh) --version 2.6.0~beta2"
or from PowerShell for Windows systems
Invoke-Expression "& { $(Invoke-RestMethod https://opam.ocaml.org/install.ps1) } -Version 2.6.0~beta2"
Please report any issues to the bug-tracker.
Happy hacking,
