Is there a change to the HTTP API that I'll need to account for?

No, this is just a behavior tweak. Ideally, we'll improve the connection manager later so it won't be necessary.

I believe we did this to improve the CoreAPI. IIRC, my end goal was to avoid exposing any CIDs to the user until they explicitly call Flush so we can make the actual IPFS import part lazy.

cc @jacobheun @vasco-santos

I'll be looking at adding tagging support in js this quarter for connection management, so this is something we should be able to look at adding in q3.

As I noted above, this shouldn't really be necessary. However, we're still killing useful connections so this change makes the issue slightly less annoying.

I think some users not familiar with Docker may just copy&paste commands and get surprised that container started by the second command does not include changes applied by the first one.

A safer example would be to use the same container in both, e.g:

$ docker run --name my-container ipfs/go-ipfs:v0.4.20 config profile apply server # apply the server profile $ docker start my-container # start the daemon

As someone not familiar with docker, thanks...

Good enough for me. We can always edit the release notes after the fact and I want this out the door.

typo (very minor): I think this should be something like "...before it gets around to sending any specific one"

(could you file a PR to fix this)
