New Configuration Options in Taskwarrior 2.5.2

  - New 'relative' column format for 'date' type columns does what 'remaining'
    and 'countdown' do, but in one format.
  - The 'default.scheduled' date/duraiton works just like 'default.due'.

Newly Deprecated Features in Taskwarrior 2.5.2

  - The 'DUETODAY' virtual tag is a synonym for the 'TODAY' virtual tag, and is
    not needed.
  - The 'new-uuid' verbosity option is to be removed due to being redundant, its
    functionality will be merged with 'new-id' option.
  - The use of alternate Boolean configuration settings is deprecated. Use values
    "0" for off, and "1" for on.  Avoid used of "on", "off", "true", "t",
    "false", "f", "yes", "y", "no", "n".

Removed Features in 2.5.2

  - Removed 'alias._query' default configuration.
  - There is no longer a 16-color default configuration for some platforms,
    making all platforms 256-color.
  - The configuration setting 'burndown.bias' is no longer used.
  - The algorithm used to estimate completion on the 'burndown' reports has
    been replaced by something less icky. Estimates are now based on the net
    completion rate after the peak number of pending tasks.
  - The unused 'dom' and 'shell.prompt' configuration settings were removed.
