Subject: [PATCH 01/19] Fix layoutDependency not working with layoutId (issue
 #1436)

When using layoutId with layoutDependency, shared layout animations were
incorrectly triggered when the component unmounted and remounted in a
different location (e.g., switching sections), even when layoutDependency
hadn't changed.

The issue was that layoutDependency was only checked during component
updates (in getSnapshotBeforeUpdate), but not during the shared layout
transition when a new component with the same layoutId mounts.

The fix:
1. Store layoutDependency on the projection node's options
2. In NodeStack.promote(), compare layoutDependency between the new node
   and previous lead - if both are defined and equal, skip the animation
   by not setting up resumeFrom or copying the snapshot

This allows components with layoutId to opt-out of shared layout
animations when their layoutDependency hasn't changed, even when
unmounting and remounting in different locations.

Subject: [PATCH 03/19] Add transformViewBoxPoint utility for SVG drag with
 scaled viewBox

When dragging SVG elements inside an SVG with a viewBox that differs from
its rendered dimensions (e.g., viewBox="0 0 100 100" but rendered at 500x500px),
pointer coordinates need to be transformed to match the SVG's coordinate system.

This adds a new opt-in utility `transformViewBoxPoint` that can be passed to
MotionConfig to fix this issue:

```jsx
const svgRef = useRef<SVGSVGElement>(null)

<MotionConfig transformPagePoint={transformViewBoxPoint(svgRef)}>
  <svg ref={svgRef} viewBox="0 0 100 100" width={500} height={500}>
    <motion.rect drag />
  </svg>
</MotionConfig>
```

This fixes issue #1414.

Changes:
- Add transformViewBoxPoint utility function
- Export from framer-motion main index
- Add Cypress E2E test for SVG viewBox drag scaling
- Add React test component and example

Subject: [PATCH 05/19] Fix CreateVisualElement type compatibility in
 createMotionProxy

The CreateVisualElement parameter type was too narrow (defaulting to
CreateVisualElement<{}, "div">), causing type errors when passed to
the generic createMotionComponent function. Changed to use explicit
<any, any> type parameters to allow the proxy to work with any props
and tag names.

Subject: [PATCH 07/19] Fix React 19 Reorder drag gesture ending prematurely

In React 19, during list reorder reconciliation, components may briefly
unmount and remount while a drag is still active. Previously, unmount
would unconditionally end the pan session, killing the drag gesture.

Now we check isDragging before ending the pan session, allowing the
gesture to continue via its window-level event listeners.

Subject: [PATCH 08/19] Fix flaky pause animation test for React 19 StrictMode

- Clear timeout in useEffect cleanup to prevent stale timeout from
  firing after StrictMode remount
- Increase animation duration from 0.2s to 1s for more CI timing margin

Subject: [PATCH 10/19] Fix flaky drag-svg constraint tests by adding wait
 after get

Add 100ms wait after getting draggable element before triggering
pointerdown in constraint tests. This gives React 19 StrictMode time
to complete the double-mount cycle.

Subject: [PATCH 11/19] Fix scrollYProgress recalculation on dynamic content
 changes

When page content changes dynamically (height increases/decreases),
scrollYProgress now automatically recalculates without requiring manual
scroll. This is achieved by adding frame-based scroll dimension checking
that detects when scrollHeight/scrollWidth changes and triggers
remeasurement.

Fixes #2718, #2274, #2333

Subject: [PATCH 13/19] Fix flaky AnimatePresence WAAPI tests for React 19
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Widen accepted animation count ranges to accommodate React 19's
  different reconciliation behavior ([23]→[234], [45]→[4567])
- Increase wait times for CI timing reliability

Subject: [PATCH 19/19] Add reduceMotion option to animate() and make
 useAnimate respect MotionConfig

This fixes two related issues:
- #2593: MotionConfig reducedMotion setting doesn't affect animate() function
- #2771: animate() automatically disables transform/layout animations based on
  device preference without developer control

Changes:
- Add reduceMotion option to AnimationOptions allowing explicit override
- useAnimate now automatically injects reduceMotion based on MotionConfig context
- Pass reduceMotion through animateTarget to override visualElement.shouldReduceMotion

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
