@cgwalters cgwalters released this 15 Feb 15:00
v2018.2

We're keeping up with the approximately-monthly release cycle. There's
mostly a collection of smaller fixes here, with some enhancements.
I'm biased but my personal favorite is #1438 since it makes
the output of findmnt rather significantly nicer on this workstation
where I have container tooling creating sub-mounts in /var that are
no longer replicated in /sysroot.

For the embedded space, #1411 for devicetree support is likely interesting,
and is related to a discussion on the mailing list:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/ostree-list/2018-February/msg00001.html

Jonathan's PR #1441 to add callback filtering to checkout
was necessary for us to re-implement some hairy logic from librpm
around "file coloring"; see coreos/rpm-ostree#1227
We're getting quite far along now in having rpm-ostree be a truly
hybrid system, supporting the existing RPM ecosystem.

Marcus definitely wins the "lines changed" count this cycle by adding
SPDX-License-Identifier to all of the C source files (#1439). This happened
because we relicensed the documentation to dual CC BY-SA and GFDL in #1432
to enable a Wikipedia page which I just
noticed exists now!

It's great to see all of the interest in and use of libostree across
the board, and thanks to all contributors!
