Release Notes
Added
- Added automatic, non-destructive Neon V2 → Silvervine migration for user
config, cache, and log directories before logging starts.
- Added 2.x hook compatibility aliases: hooks receive both
SILVERVINE_* and
deprecated matching NEON_* context variables without overwriting explicit
values.
Changed
- Renamed the product, repository, crate, library, binary, paths, user daemon,
and current documentation from Neon to Silvervine for v2.0.0.
- Silvervine daemon migration starts the replacement registration before
retiring the retained Neon V2 registration (neon.service or
com.neon.tray), with rollback to the prior data and running state if
retirement fails.
- Retired the Neon V1 Homebrew/AUR/deb sources. Their legacy migration paths
and package-manager guidance remain supported; no Silvervine Homebrew tap is
created.
Fixed
- Fixed macOS daemon IPC connections closing before clients could send their
request when accepted sockets inherited nonblocking mode.
- Fixed macOS file-watcher events failing to match browser paths reported
through canonical aliases such as /private/var versus /var.
Removed
- Removed the unsupported experimental VM/GPU bridge, including the
neon stream command tree, neon doctor --bridge, libvirt dependencies,
and bridge-specific daemon/tray integration. The research implementation is
preserved on the experimental-bridge branch for contributors.
- Removed the bridge-only CDM provider abstraction and its redundant temporary
copy of the cached Widevine payload during every browser patch.
- Removed the unsigned
neon update self mechanism. Install updates through a
supported package manager or GitHub Releases instead.
