It’s time for the weekly dep roundup!

News and Such

The move to TOML for the manifest and lock files appears to have gone pretty smoothly - or at least, nobody’s been complaining about it in the issue queue. Which is lovely!

We’ve got consent from all of gps’ contributors, so we (read: the awesome @kris-nova) are going to begin the process of moving gps directly into dep this week. Note that if you’re watching the dep repo’s issues, this may blow up your feed, as migration will include moving over all of gps’ 40+ open issues.

Our big goal right now remains stabilizing the manifest and lock metadata files, so that people can safely begin really committing those files and using dep in earnest. To that end, my dep energy this week is going to be primarily focused on teasing out the manifest and lock-level needs for OS/arch/build tag parameterization, as it’s possible that proper handling could entail backwards-incompatible changes to the metadata files.

Community Attention Needed!

Here’s this week’s big three:

Stuff We’ve 🚢ed

There were a bunch of other PRs, too, but I’m trying to keep this brief 😄

Also, a big thank-you to @carolynvs for all the PR and issue reviews she’s done since I asked for help with last week’s update!
