LTS/master differences?

[akx]

We're using the PyPI distribution of uWSGI in production, and I just realized that it's missing functionality added even three years ago (namely #944 piqued my attention).

It seems the merge-base between master and 2.0.17.1 is 42d42d9 (5 years ago) and turns out there's quite a bit that's happened meanwhile:

$ git diff --stat 2.0.17.1 origin/master
[...]
 396 files changed, 13044 insertions(+), 4321 deletions(-)

(Most of that diff seems to come from lua_plugin though.)

I understand the PyPI distribution is the one considered stable/LTS – is there something blocking merging changes from master into the stable/LTS "branch"?

Hi, the main problem is the lack of a proper unit test suite. The 2.0 branch gets only bugfixes and is generally pretty solid but 2.1 contains lot of barely tested (or totally untested) features. There are various proposal for fixing this problem, but still not a deadline.
