disabling it and building Taskwarrior without libgnutls available.

can be parsed by most JSON libraries without changes.

and replaced by the new '_unique' helper command, which generates lists of
unique values for the specified attribute.

that determine some of their behavior.
- Improved feedback for tasks that do not have ID (thanks to Tomas Babej).
- Comma-separated lists of UUIDs can no longer be used as a filter. Use the
space character instead.

task is created.

task becomes visible.
- New 'rule.color.merge=yes|no' configuration option, that can optionally
turn off color blending engine.

of 'urgency.user.tag.next.coefficient'.
- The long deprecated syntax of color values with underscores (i.e 'on_red')
is no longer supported.

added.
- When GC is turned off, disable the query shortcuts, which no longer apply.

does not do {} expansion, thereby causing push/pull errors (thanks to Russell
Steicke).
- Fixed bug #1194, so that $HOME has precedence over the passwd db when looking
for the user's home directory (thanks to Jakub Wilk).

due dates, which are no longer relevant to a completed task (thanks to
Cory Donnelly).

epoch numbers instead of dates (thanks to Cory Donnelly).
- Fixed bug #369 which prevented the config command from setting quoted or
unquoted multi-word values (thanks to Richard Querin).
- Fixed bug #370 which prevented the removal of a due date from a task,
mis-identifying the task as recurring just because it had a due date
(thanks to John Florian).
- Fixed bug #371 which caused task to mis-apply certain color rules, like
color.alternate, which was (a) not applied first, and (b) not blended
with the other color rules (thanks to Richard Querin).
- Fixed bug #372 which incorrectly mapped 16-color backgrounds into the
256-color space.

have read 'recurrence_indicator'. Also, the 'tag_indicator' column was
not mentioned anywhere (thanks to T. Charles Yun).
- Fixed bug #319 that caused task to not properly detect the removal of a
tag when obtaining confirmation from the user fora bulk modification
(thanks to Cory Donnelly).

are shown, for example: "task list limit:10".
- Now supports a debug mode that can be used to generate helpful information
when reporting a problem. Just run the command with "task rc.debug:on ..."
and diagnostics will be generated that will help pinpoint a problem.
- The new "undo" command replaces the old "undo" and "undelete" command
with a complete undo stack that can rollback all changes.
- While waiting for a file lock, task states the reason for the delay.
- Now supports a 'waiting' state that causes tasks to not appear until
a certain date, for example "task <ID> wait:<date>". The task
will then not show up on any report (except 'all') until that date.
- The "active", "completed", "overdue" and "next" reports are now custom
reports, and therefore modifiable.

Charles Yun).

data.location specified otherwise (thanks to Federico Hernandez).
- New "edit" command that fires up a text editor (uses 'editor' configuration
variable, $VISUAL or $EDITOR environment variable) and allows direct
editing of all editable task details.

Charles Yun).
- Task can now import tasks from a variety of data formats, including task
export files from versions 1.4.3 and earlier, versions 1.5.0 and later,
todo.sh 2.x, CSV, plain text and task command line. See online docs for

variable.
- Added documentation for Shadow files.
