v1.1.2

See haskellstack.org for installation and upgrade instructions.

Release notes:

• Official FreeBSD binaries are
  now available
  (#1253).

Major changes:

• Extensible custom snapshots implemented. These allow you to define snapshots
  which extend other snapshots. See
  #863. Local file custom
  snapshots can now be safely updated without changing their name. Remote custom
  snapshots should still be treated as immutable.

Behavior changes:

• stack path --compiler was added in the last release, to yield a path to the
  compiler. Unfortunately, --compiler is a global option that is useful to use
  with stack path. The same functionality is now provided by stack path --compiler-exe. See
  #2123
• For packages specified in terms of a git or hg repo, the hash used in the
  location has changed. This means that existing downloads from older stack
  versions won't be used. This is a side-effect of the fix to
  #2133
• stack upgrade no longer pays attention to local stack.yaml files, just the
  global config and CLI options.
  #1392
• stack ghci now uses :add instead of :load, making it potentially work
  better with user scripts. See
  #1888

Other enhancements:

• Grab Cabal files via Git SHA to avoid regressions from Hackage revisions
  #2070
• Custom snapshots now support ghc-options.
• Package git repos are now re-used rather than re-cloned. See
  #1620
• DESTDIR is filtered from environment when installing GHC. See
  #1460
• stack haddock now supports --hadock-arguments. See
  #2144
• Signing: warn if GPG_TTY is not set as per man gpg-agent

Bug fixes:

• Now ignore project config when doing stack init or stack new. See
  #2110
• Packages specified by git repo can now have submodules. See
  #2133
• Fix of hackage index fetch retry. See re-opening of
  #1418
• HPack now picks up changes to filesystem other than package.yaml. See
  #2051
• "stack solver" no longer suggests --omit-packages. See
  #2031
• Fixed an issue with building Cabal's Setup.hs. See
  #1356
• Package dirtiness now pays attention to deleted files. See
  #1841
• stack ghci now uses extra-lib-dirs and extra-include-dirs. See
  #1656
• Relative paths outside of source dir added via qAddDependentFile are now
  checked for dirtiness. See
  #1982
• Signing: always use --with-fingerprints
