  • Release prototype of Protobuf Editions. (4f9e417)
  • Enable TSan validation to detect when a mutable accessor of a message is called concurrently with another accessor on the same message, which is a data race. (e2eae81)

  • Strengthen assertions on reflection methods. (eb5e9e0)
  • Add assertions to reflection methods. (5866e45)

  • Forbid embedded nulls in json_name. (b478a29)
  • Implement option retention for C# (5f64444)
  • Implement enforcement of target constraints (e3848c1)
  • Make RepeatedField and RepeatedPtrField be destructor skippable for proto arenas. (e4168df)
  • Update MessageDifferencer to conditionally force comparing additional fields while doing PARTIAL comparison (compare fields which are not repeated, have no presence and are set to their default value). (748f57f)
