v2.6.0

[JohnnyMorganz]

[2.6.0] - 2026-10-10

Added

• Luau: Added support for if local / if const condition bindings in both if statements and if expressions (e.g. if local x = getValue() then ... end)
• Added Input mode for collapse_simple_statement, preserving whether simple statements are single-line or multi-line in the input while still formatting their contents (#1112)

Fixed

• Fixed range formatting indenting statements one level too shallow when nested inside a function expression within a table constructor (#1145)
• Fixed -- stylua: ignore start/end ranges inside multiline tables reformatting the ignored fields (#1134)
• When using range formatting, semicolons outside of the provided range are no longer incorrectly formatted (#1147)
• Luau: Fixed sort requires not recognizing imports declared with const, e.g. const Foo = require(path)
• Luau: Fixed the read/write access modifier merging into the element type in array type shorthand, changing the meaning of the code ({ read Foo } was formatted as { readFoo }) (#1126)
• Fixed single-line comments in CRLF files gaining an extra carriage return (\r\r\n) on every format when line_endings = "Windows", and keeping their original \r\n when formatting to Unix line endings (#1167)
