6Unreleased
7
8-   Drop support for Python 2.7 and 3.5.
9-   Bump MarkupSafe dependency to >=1.1.
10-   Bump Babel optional dependency to >=2.1.
11-   Remove code that was marked deprecated.
12-   Use :pep:`451` API to load templates with
13    :class:`~loaders.PackageLoader`. :issue:`1168`
14-   Fix a bug that caused imported macros to not have access to the
15    current template's globals. :issue:`688`
16-   Add ability to ignore ``trim_blocks`` using ``+%}``. :issue:`1036`
17
18Version 2.11.2
19--------------
20
21Released 2020-04-13
22
23-   Fix a bug that caused callable objects with ``__getattr__``, like
24    :class:`~unittest.mock.Mock` to be treated as a
25    :func:`contextfunction`. :issue:`1145`
26-   Update ``wordcount`` filter to trigger :class:`Undefined` methods
27    by wrapping the input in :func:`soft_str`. :pr:`1160`
28-   Fix a hang when displaying tracebacks on Python 32-bit.
29    :issue:`1162`
30-   Showing an undefined error for an object that raises
31    ``AttributeError`` on access doesn't cause a recursion error.
32    :issue:`1177`
33-   Revert changes to :class:`~loaders.PackageLoader` from 2.10 which
34    removed the dependency on setuptools and pkg_resources, and added
35    limited support for namespace packages. The changes caused issues
36    when using Pytest. Due to the difficulty in supporting Python 2 and
37    :pep:`451` simultaneously, the changes are reverted until 3.0.
38    :pr:`1182`
39-   Fix line numbers in error messages when newlines are stripped.
40    :pr:`1178`
41-   The special ``namespace()`` assignment object in templates works in
42    async environments. :issue:`1180`
43-   Fix whitespace being removed before tags in the middle of lines when
44    ``lstrip_blocks`` is enabled. :issue:`1138`
45-   :class:`~nativetypes.NativeEnvironment` doesn't evaluate
46    intermediate strings during rendering. This prevents early
47    evaluation which could change the value of an expression.
48    :issue:`1186`
49
50
51Version 2.11.1
52--------------
53
54Released 2020-01-30
55
56-   Fix a bug that prevented looking up a key after an attribute
57    (``{{ data.items[1:] }}``) in an async template. :issue:`1141`
58
59
60Version 2.11.0
61--------------
62
63Released 2020-01-27
64
65-   Drop support for Python 2.6, 3.3, and 3.4. This will be the last
66    version to support Python 2.7 and 3.5.
67-   Added a new ``ChainableUndefined`` class to support getitem and
68    getattr on an undefined object. :issue:`977`
69-   Allow ``{%+`` syntax (with NOP behavior) when ``lstrip_blocks`` is
70    disabled. :issue:`748`
71-   Added a ``default`` parameter for the ``map`` filter. :issue:`557`
72-   Exclude environment globals from
73    :func:`meta.find_undeclared_variables`. :issue:`931`
74-   Float literals can be written with scientific notation, like
75    2.56e-3. :issue:`912`, :pr:`922`
76-   Int and float literals can be written with the '_' separator for
77    legibility, like 12_345. :pr:`923`
78-   Fix a bug causing deadlocks in ``LRUCache.setdefault``. :pr:`1000`
79-   The ``trim`` filter takes an optional string of characters to trim.
80    :pr:`828`
81-   A new ``jinja2.ext.debug`` extension adds a ``{% debug %}`` tag to
82    quickly dump the current context and available filters and tests.
83    :issue:`174`, :pr:`798, 983`
84-   Lexing templates with large amounts of whitespace is much faster.
85    :issue:`857`, :pr:`858`
86-   Parentheses around comparisons are preserved, so
87    ``{{ 2 * (3 < 5) }}`` outputs "2" instead of "False".
88    :issue:`755`, :pr:`938`
89-   Add new ``boolean``, ``false``, ``true``, ``integer`` and ``float``
90    tests. :pr:`824`
91-   The environment's ``finalize`` function is only applied to the
92    output of expressions (constant or not), not static template data.
93    :issue:`63`
94-   When providing multiple paths to ``FileSystemLoader``, a template
95    can have the same name as a directory. :issue:`821`
96-   Always return :class:`Undefined` when omitting the ``else`` clause
97    in a ``{{ 'foo' if bar }}`` expression, regardless of the
98    environment's ``undefined`` class. Omitting the ``else`` clause is a
99    valid shortcut and should not raise an error when using
100    :class:`StrictUndefined`. :issue:`710`, :pr:`1079`
101-   Fix behavior of ``loop`` control variables such as ``length`` and
102    ``revindex0`` when looping over a generator. :issue:`459, 751, 794`,
103    :pr:`993`
104-   Async support is only loaded the first time an environment enables
105    it, in order to avoid a slow initial import. :issue:`765`
106-   In async environments, the ``|map`` filter will await the filter
107    call if needed. :pr:`913`
108-   In for loops that access ``loop`` attributes, the iterator is not
109    advanced ahead of the current iteration unless ``length``,
110    ``revindex``, ``nextitem``, or ``last`` are accessed. This makes it
111    less likely to break ``groupby`` results. :issue:`555`, :pr:`1101`
112-   In async environments, the ``loop`` attributes ``length`` and
113    ``revindex`` work for async iterators. :pr:`1101`
114-   In async environments, values from attribute/property access will
115    be awaited if needed. :pr:`1101`
116-   :class:`~loader.PackageLoader` doesn't depend on setuptools or
117    pkg_resources. :issue:`970`
118-   ``PackageLoader`` has limited support for :pep:`420` namespace
119    packages. :issue:`1097`
120-   Support :class:`os.PathLike` objects in
121    :class:`~loader.FileSystemLoader` and :class:`~loader.ModuleLoader`.
122    :issue:`870`
123-   :class:`~nativetypes.NativeTemplate` correctly handles quotes
124    between expressions. ``"'{{ a }}', '{{ b }}'"`` renders as the tuple
125    ``('1', '2')`` rather than the string ``'1, 2'``. :issue:`1020`
126-   Creating a :class:`~nativetypes.NativeTemplate` directly creates a
127    :class:`~nativetypes.NativeEnvironment` instead of a default
128    :class:`Environment`. :issue:`1091`
129-   After calling ``LRUCache.copy()``, the copy's queue methods point to
130    the correct queue. :issue:`843`
131-   Compiling templates always writes UTF-8 instead of defaulting to the
132    system encoding. :issue:`889`
133-   ``|wordwrap`` filter treats existing newlines as separate paragraphs
134    to be wrapped individually, rather than creating short intermediate
135    lines. :issue:`175`
136-   Add ``break_on_hyphens`` parameter to ``|wordwrap`` filter.
137    :issue:`550`
138-   Cython compiled functions decorated as context functions will be
139    passed the context. :pr:`1108`
140-   When chained comparisons of constants are evaluated at compile time,
141    the result follows Python's behavior of returning ``False`` if any
142    comparison returns ``False``, rather than only the last one.
143    :issue:`1102`
144-   Tracebacks for exceptions in templates show the correct line numbers
145    and source for Python >= 3.7. :issue:`1104`
146-   Tracebacks for template syntax errors in Python 3 no longer show
147    internal compiler frames. :issue:`763`
148-   Add a ``DerivedContextReference`` node that can be used by
149    extensions to get the current context and local variables such as
150    ``loop``. :issue:`860`
151-   Constant folding during compilation is applied to some node types
152    that were previously overlooked. :issue:`733`
153-   ``TemplateSyntaxError.source`` is not empty when raised from an
154    included template. :issue:`457`
155-   Passing an ``Undefined`` value to ``get_template`` (such as through
156    ``extends``, ``import``, or ``include``), raises an
157    ``UndefinedError`` consistently. ``select_template`` will show the
158    undefined message in the list of attempts rather than the empty
159    string. :issue:`1037`
160-   ``TemplateSyntaxError`` can be pickled. :pr:`1117`
161
162
163Version 2.10.3
164--------------
165
166Released 2019-10-04
167
168-   Fix a typo in Babel entry point in ``setup.py`` that was preventing
169    installation.
170
171
172Version 2.10.2
173--------------
174
175Released 2019-10-04
176
177-   Fix Python 3.7 deprecation warnings.
178-   Using ``range`` in the sandboxed environment uses ``xrange`` on
179    Python 2 to avoid memory use. :issue:`933`
180-   Use Python 3.7's better traceback support to avoid a core dump when
181    using debug builds of Python 3.7. :issue:`1050`
182
183
184Version 2.10.1
185--------------
186
187Released 2019-04-06
188
189-   ``SandboxedEnvironment`` securely handles ``str.format_map`` in
190    order to prevent code execution through untrusted format strings.
191    The sandbox already handled ``str.format``.
192
193
194Version 2.10
195------------
196
197Released 2017-11-08
198
199-   Added a new extension node called ``OverlayScope`` which can be used
200    to create an unoptimized scope that will look up all variables from
201    a derived context.
202-   Added an ``in`` test that works like the in operator. This can be
203    used in combination with ``reject`` and ``select``.
204-   Added ``previtem`` and ``nextitem`` to loop contexts, providing
205    access to the previous/next item in the loop. If such an item does
206    not exist, the value is undefined.
207-   Added ``changed(*values)`` to loop contexts, providing an easy way
208    of checking whether a value has changed since the last iteration (or
209    rather since the last call of the method)
210-   Added a ``namespace`` function that creates a special object which
211    allows attribute assignment using the ``set`` tag. This can be used
212    to carry data across scopes, e.g. from a loop body to code that
213    comes after the loop.
214-   Added a ``trimmed`` modifier to ``{% trans %}`` to strip linebreaks
215    and surrounding whitespace. Also added a new policy to enable this
216    for all ``trans`` blocks.
217-   The ``random`` filter is no longer incorrectly constant folded and
218    will produce a new random choice each time the template is rendered.
219    :pr:`478`
220-   Added a ``unique`` filter. :pr:`469`
221-   Added ``min`` and ``max`` filters. :pr:`475`
222-   Added tests for all comparison operators: ``eq``, ``ne``, ``lt``,
223    ``le``, ``gt``, ``ge``. :pr:`665`
224-   ``import`` statement cannot end with a trailing comma. :pr:`617`,
225    :pr:`618`
226-   ``indent`` filter will not indent blank lines by default. :pr:`685`
227-   Add ``reverse`` argument for ``dictsort`` filter. :pr:`692`
228-   Add a ``NativeEnvironment`` that renders templates to native Python
229    types instead of strings. :pr:`708`
230-   Added filter support to the block ``set`` tag. :pr:`489`
231-   ``tojson`` filter marks output as safe to match documented behavior.
232    :pr:`718`
233-   Resolved a bug where getting debug locals for tracebacks could
234    modify template context.
235-   Fixed a bug where having many ``{% elif ... %}`` blocks resulted in
236    a "too many levels of indentation" error. These blocks now compile
237    to native ``elif ..:`` instead of ``else: if ..:`` :issue:`759`
238
239
240Version 2.9.6
241-------------
242
243Released 2017-04-03
244
245-   Fixed custom context behavior in fast resolve mode :issue:`675`
246
247
248Version 2.9.5
249-------------
250
251Released 2017-01-28
252
253-   Restored the original repr of the internal ``_GroupTuple`` because
254    this caused issues with ansible and it was an unintended change.
255    :issue:`654`
256-   Added back support for custom contexts that override the old
257    ``resolve`` method since it was hard for people to spot that this
258    could cause a regression.
259-   Correctly use the buffer for the else block of for loops. This
260    caused invalid syntax errors to be caused on 2.x and completely
261    wrong behavior on Python 3 :issue:`669`
262-   Resolve an issue where the ``{% extends %}`` tag could not be used
263    with async environments. :issue:`668`
264-   Reduce memory footprint slightly by reducing our unicode database
265    dump we use for identifier matching on Python 3 :issue:`666`
266-   Fixed autoescaping not working for macros in async compilation mode.
267    :issue:`671`
268
269
270Version 2.9.4
271-------------
272
273Released 2017-01-10
274
275-   Solved some warnings for string literals. :issue:`646`
276-   Increment the bytecode cache version which was not done due to an
277    oversight before.
278-   Corrected bad code generation and scoping for filtered loops.
279    :issue:`649`
280-   Resolved an issue where top-level output silencing after known
281    extend blocks could generate invalid code when blocks where
282    contained in if statements. :issue:`651`
283-   Made the ``truncate.leeway`` default configurable to improve
284    compatibility with older templates.
285
286
287Version 2.9.3
288-------------
289
290Released 2017-01-08
291
292-   Restored the use of blocks in macros to the extend that was possible
293    before. On Python 3 it would render a generator repr instead of the
294    block contents. :issue:`645`
295-   Set a consistent behavior for assigning of variables in inner scopes
296    when the variable is also read from an outer scope. This now sets
297    the intended behavior in all situations however it does not restore
298    the old behavior where limited assignments to outer scopes was
299    possible. For more information and a discussion see :issue:`641`
300-   Resolved an issue where ``block scoped`` would not take advantage of
301    the new scoping rules. In some more exotic cases a variable
302    overriden in a local scope would not make it into a block.
303-   Change the code generation of the ``with`` statement to be in line
304    with the new scoping rules. This resolves some unlikely bugs in edge
305    cases. This also introduces a new internal ``With`` node that can be
306    used by extensions.
307
308
309Version 2.9.2
310-------------
311
312Released 2017-01-08
313
314-   Fixed a regression that caused for loops to not be able to use the
315    same variable for the target as well as source iterator.
316    :issue:`640`
317-   Add support for a previously unknown behavior of macros. It used to
318    be possible in some circumstances to explicitly provide a caller
319    argument to macros. While badly buggy and unintended it turns out
320    that this is a common case that gets copy pasted around. To not
321    completely break backwards compatibility with the most common cases
322    it's now possible to provide an explicit keyword argument for caller
323    if it's given an explicit default. :issue:`642`
324
325
326Version 2.9.1
327-------------
328
329Released 2017-01-07
330
331-   Resolved a regression with call block scoping for macros. Nested
332    caller blocks that used the same identifiers as outer macros could
333    refer to the wrong variable incorrectly.
334
335
336Version 2.9
337-----------
338
339Released 2017-01-07, codename Derivation
340
341-   Change cache key definition in environment. This fixes a performance
342    regression introduced in 2.8.
343-   Added support for ``generator_stop`` on supported Python versions
344    (Python 3.5 and later)
345-   Corrected a long standing issue with operator precedence of math
346    operations not being what was expected.
347-   Added support for Python 3.6 async iterators through a new async
348    mode.
349-   Added policies for filter defaults and similar things.
350-   Urlize now sets "rel noopener" by default.
351-   Support attribute fallback for old-style classes in 2.x.
352-   Support toplevel set statements in extend situations.
353-   Restored behavior of Cycler for Python 3 users.
354-   Subtraction now follows the same behavior as other operators on
355    undefined values.
356-   ``map`` and friends will now give better error messages if you
357    forgot to quote the parameter.
358-   Depend on MarkupSafe 0.23 or higher.
359-   Improved the ``truncate`` filter to support better truncation in
360    case the string is barely truncated at all.
361-   Change the logic for macro autoescaping to be based on the runtime
362    autoescaping information at call time instead of macro define time.
363-   Ported a modified version of the ``tojson`` filter from Flask to
364    Jinja and hooked it up with the new policy framework.
365-   Block sets are now marked ``safe`` by default.
366-   On Python 2 the asciification of ASCII strings can now be disabled
367    with the ``compiler.ascii_str`` policy.
368-   Tests now no longer accept an arbitrary expression as first argument
369    but a restricted one. This means that you can now properly use
370    multiple tests in one expression without extra parentheses. In
371    particular you can now write ``foo is divisibleby 2 or foo is
372    divisibleby 3`` as you would expect.
373-   Greatly changed the scoping system to be more consistent with what
374    template designers and developers expect. There is now no more magic
375    difference between the different include and import constructs.
376    Context is now always propagated the same way. The only remaining
377    differences is the defaults for ``with context`` and ``without
378    context``.
379-   The ``with`` and ``autoescape`` tags are now built-in.
380-   Added the new ``select_autoescape`` function which helps configuring
381    better autoescaping easier.
382-   Fixed a runtime error in the sandbox when attributes of async
383    generators were accessed.
384
385
386Version 2.8.1
387-------------
388
389Released 2016-12-29
390
391-   Fixed the ``for_qs`` flag for ``urlencode``.
392-   Fixed regression when applying ``int`` to non-string values.
393-   SECURITY: if the sandbox mode is used format expressions are now
394    sandboxed with the same rules as in Jinja. This solves various
395    information leakage problems that can occur with format strings.
396
397
398Version 2.8
399-----------
400
401Released 2015-07-26, codename Replacement
402
403-   Added ``target`` parameter to urlize function.
404-   Added support for ``followsymlinks`` to the file system loader.
405-   The truncate filter now counts the length.
406-   Added equalto filter that helps with select filters.
407-   Changed cache keys to use absolute file names if available instead
408    of load names.
409-   Fixed loop length calculation for some iterators.
410-   Changed how Jinja enforces strings to be native strings in Python 2
411    to work when people break their default encoding.
412-   Added ``make_logging_undefined`` which returns an undefined
413    object that logs failures into a logger.
414-   If unmarshalling of cached data fails the template will be reloaded
415    now.
416-   Implemented a block ``set`` tag.
417-   Default cache size was increased to 400 from a low 50.
418-   Fixed ``is number`` test to accept long integers in all Python
419    versions.
420-   Changed ``is number`` to accept Decimal as a number.
421-   Added a check for default arguments followed by non-default
422    arguments. This change makes ``{% macro m(x, y=1, z) %}`` a syntax
423    error. The previous behavior for this code was broken anyway
424    (resulting in the default value being applied to ``y``).
425-   Add ability to use custom subclasses of
426    ``jinja2.compiler.CodeGenerator`` and ``jinja2.runtime.Context`` by
427    adding two new attributes to the environment
428    (``code_generator_class`` and ``context_class``). :pr:`404`
429-   Added support for context/environment/evalctx decorator functions on
430    the finalize callback of the environment.
431-   Escape query strings for urlencode properly. Previously slashes were
432    not escaped in that place.
433-   Add 'base' parameter to 'int' filter.
434
435
436Version 2.7.3
437-------------
438
439Released 2014-06-06
440
441-   Security issue: Corrected the security fix for the cache folder.
442    This fix was provided by RedHat.
443
444
445Version 2.7.2
446-------------
447
448Released 2014-01-10
449
450-   Prefix loader was not forwarding the locals properly to inner
451    loaders. This is now fixed.
452-   Security issue: Changed the default folder for the filesystem cache
453    to be user specific and read and write protected on UNIX systems.
454    See `Debian bug 734747`_ for more information.

458
459Version 2.7.1
460-------------
461
462Released 2013-08-07
463
464-   Fixed a bug with ``call_filter`` not working properly on environment
465    and context filters.
466-   Fixed lack of Python 3 support for bytecode caches.
467-   Reverted support for defining blocks in included templates as this
468    broke existing templates for users.
469-   Fixed some warnings with hashing of undefineds and nodes if Python
470    is run with warnings for Python 3.
471-   Added support for properly hashing undefined objects.
472-   Fixed a bug with the title filter not working on already uppercase
473    strings.
474
475
476Version 2.7
477-----------
478
479Released 2013-05-20, codename Translation
480
481-   Choice and prefix loaders now dispatch source and template lookup
482    separately in order to work in combination with module loaders as
483    advertised.
484-   Fixed filesizeformat.
485-   Added a non-silent option for babel extraction.
486-   Added ``urlencode`` filter that automatically quotes values for URL
487    safe usage with utf-8 as only supported encoding. If applications
488    want to change this encoding they can override the filter.
489-   Added ``keep-trailing-newline`` configuration to environments and
490    templates to optionally preserve the final trailing newline.
491-   Accessing ``last`` on the loop context no longer causes the iterator
492    to be consumed into a list.
493-   Python requirement changed: 2.6, 2.7 or >= 3.3 are required now,
494    supported by same source code, using the "six" compatibility
495    library.
496-   Allow ``contextfunction`` and other decorators to be applied to
497    ``__call__``.
498-   Added support for changing from newline to different signs in the
499    ``wordwrap`` filter.
500-   Added support for ignoring memcache errors silently.
501-   Added support for keeping the trailing newline in templates.
502-   Added finer grained support for stripping whitespace on the left
503    side of blocks.
504-   Added ``map``, ``select``, ``reject``, ``selectattr`` and
505    ``rejectattr`` filters.
506-   Added support for ``loop.depth`` to figure out how deep inside a
507    recursive loop the code is.
508-   Disabled py_compile for pypy and python 3.
509
510
511Version 2.6
512-----------
513
514Released 2011-07-24, codename Convolution
515
516-   Internal attributes now raise an internal attribute error now
517    instead of returning an undefined. This fixes problems when passing
518    undefined objects to Python semantics expecting APIs.
519-   Traceback support now works properly for PyPy. (Tested with 1.4)
520-   Implemented operator intercepting for sandboxed environments. This
521    allows application developers to disable builtin operators for
522    better security. (For instance limit the mathematical operators to
523    actual integers instead of longs)
524-   Groupby filter now supports dotted notation for grouping by
525    attributes of attributes.
526-   Scoped blocks now properly treat toplevel assignments and imports.
527    Previously an import suddenly "disappeared" in a scoped block.
528-   Automatically detect newer Python interpreter versions before
529    loading code from bytecode caches to prevent segfaults on invalid
530    opcodes. The segfault in earlier Jinja versions here was not a
531    Jinja bug but a limitation in the underlying Python interpreter. If
532    you notice Jinja segfaulting in earlier versions after an upgrade
533    of the Python interpreter you don't have to upgrade, it's enough to
534    flush the bytecode cache. This just no longer makes this necessary,
535    Jinja will automatically detect these cases now.
536-   The sum filter can now sum up values by attribute. This is a
537    backwards incompatible change. The argument to the filter previously
538    was the optional starting index which defaults to zero. This now
539    became the second argument to the function because it's rarely used.
540-   Like sum, sort now also makes it possible to order items by
541    attribute.
542-   Like sum and sort, join now also is able to join attributes of
543    objects as string.
544-   The internal eval context now has a reference to the environment.
545-   Added a mapping test to see if an object is a dict or an object with
546    a similar interface.
547

549Version 2.5.5
550-------------
551
552Released 2010-10-18
553
554-   Built documentation is no longer part of release.
555
556
557Version 2.5.4
558-------------
559
560Released 2010-10-17
561
562-   Fixed extensions not loading properly with overlays.
563-   Work around a bug in cpython for the debugger that causes segfaults
564    on 64bit big-endian architectures.
565
566
567Version 2.5.3
568-------------
569
570Released 2010-10-17
571
572-   Fixed an operator precedence error introduced in 2.5.2. Statements
573    like "-foo.bar" had their implicit parentheses applied around the
574    first part of the expression ("(-foo).bar") instead of the more
575    correct "-(foo.bar)".
576
577
578Version 2.5.2
579-------------
580
581Released 2010-08-18
582
583-   Improved setup.py script to better work with assumptions people
584    might still have from it (``--with-speedups``).
585-   Fixed a packaging error that excluded the new debug support.
586
587
588Version 2.5.1
589-------------
590
591Released 2010-08-17
592
593-   StopIteration exceptions raised by functions called from templates
594    are now intercepted and converted to undefineds. This solves a lot
595    of debugging grief. (StopIteration is used internally to abort
596    template execution)
597-   Improved performance of macro calls slightly.
598-   Babel extraction can now properly extract newstyle gettext calls.
599-   Using the variable ``num`` in newstyle gettext for something else
600    than the pluralize count will no longer raise a :exc:`KeyError`.
601-   Removed builtin markup class and switched to markupsafe. For
602    backwards compatibility the pure Python implementation still exists
603    but is pulled from markupsafe by the Jinja developers. The debug
604    support went into a separate feature called "debugsupport" and is
605    disabled by default because it is only relevant for Python 2.4
606-   Fixed an issue with unary operators having the wrong precedence.

609Version 2.5
610-----------
611
612Released 2010-05-29, codename Incoherence
613
614-   Improved the sort filter (should have worked like this for a long
615    time) by adding support for case insensitive searches.
616-   Fixed a bug for getattribute constant folding.
617-   Support for newstyle gettext translations which result in a nicer
618    in-template user interface and more consistent catalogs.
619-   It's now possible to register extensions after an environment was
620    created.
621
622
623Version 2.4.1

630
631Version 2.4
632-----------
633
634Released 2010-04-13, codename Correlation
635
636-   The environment template loading functions now transparently pass
637    through a template object if it was passed to it. This makes it
638    possible to import or extend from a template object that was passed
639    to the template.
640-   Added a ``ModuleLoader`` that can load templates from
641    precompiled sources. The environment now features a method to
642    compile the templates from a configured loader into a zip file or
643    folder.
644-   The _speedups C extension now supports Python 3.
645-   Added support for autoescaping toggling sections and support for
646    evaluation contexts.
647-   Extensions have a priority now.
648
649
650Version 2.3.1
651-------------

655-   Fixed an error reporting bug on all python versions
656-   Fixed an error reporting bug on Python 2.4

659Version 2.3
660-----------
661
662Released 2010-02-10, codename 3000 Pythons
663
664-   Fixes issue with code generator that causes unbound variables to be
665    generated if set was used in if-blocks and other small identifier
666    problems.
667-   Include tags are now able to select between multiple templates and
668    take the first that exists, if a list of templates is given.
669-   Fixed a problem with having call blocks in outer scopes that have an
670    argument that is also used as local variable in an inner frame
671    :issue:`360`.
672-   Greatly improved error message reporting :pr:`339`
673-   Implicit tuple expressions can no longer be totally empty. This
674    change makes ``{% if %}`` a syntax error now. :issue:`364`
675-   Added support for translator comments if extracted via babel.
676-   Added with-statement extension.
677-   Experimental Python 3 support.

687
688Version 2.2
689-----------
690
691Released 2009-09-13, codename Kong
692
693-   Include statements can now be marked with ``ignore missing`` to skip
694    non existing templates.
695-   Priority of ``not`` raised. It's now possible to write ``not foo in
696    bar`` as an alias to ``foo not in bar`` like in python. Previously
697    the grammar required parentheses (``not (foo in bar)``) which was
698    odd.
699-   Fixed a bug that caused syntax errors when defining macros or using
700    the ``{% call %}`` tag inside loops.
701-   Fixed a bug in the parser that made ``{{ foo[1, 2] }}`` impossible.
702-   Made it possible to refer to names from outer scopes in included
703    templates that were unused in the callers frame :issue:`327`
704-   Fixed a bug that caused internal errors if names where used as
705    iteration variable and regular variable *after* the loop if that
706    variable was unused *before* the loop. :pr:`331`
707-   Added support for optional ``scoped`` modifier to blocks.
708-   Added support for line-comments.
709-   Added the ``meta`` module.
710-   Renamed (undocumented) attribute "overlay" to "overlayed" on the
711    environment because it was clashing with a method of the same name.
712-   Speedup extension is now disabled by default.

714
715Version 2.1.1
716-------------

720-   Fixed a translation error caused by looping over empty recursive
721    loops.

723
724Version 2.1
725-----------
726
727Released 2008-11-23, codename Yasuzō
728
729-   Fixed a bug with nested loops and the special loop variable. Before
730    the change an inner loop overwrote the loop variable from the outer
731    one after iteration.
732-   Fixed a bug with the i18n extension that caused the explicit
733    pluralization block to look up the wrong variable.
734-   Fixed a limitation in the lexer that made ``{{ foo.0.0 }}``
735    impossible.
736-   Index based subscribing of variables with a constant value returns
737    an undefined object now instead of raising an index error. This was
738    a bug caused by eager optimizing.
739-   The i18n extension looks up ``foo.ugettext`` now followed by
740    ``foo.gettext`` if an translations object is installed. This makes
741    dealing with custom translations classes easier.
742-   Fixed a confusing behavior with conditional extending. loops were
743    partially executed under some conditions even though they were not
744    part of a visible area.
745-   Added ``sort`` filter that works like ``dictsort`` but for arbitrary
746    sequences.
747-   Fixed a bug with empty statements in macros.
748-   Implemented a bytecode cache system.
749-   The template context is now weakref-able
750-   Inclusions and imports "with context" forward all variables now, not
751    only the initial context.
752-   Added a cycle helper called ``cycler``.
753-   Added a joining helper called ``joiner``.
754-   Added a ``compile_expression`` method to the environment that allows
755    compiling of Jinja expressions into callable Python objects.
756-   Fixed an escaping bug in urlize
757
758
759Version 2.0
760-----------
761
762Released 2008-07-17, codename Jinjavitus
763
764-   The subscribing of objects (looking up attributes and items) changed
765    from slightly. It's now possible to give attributes or items a
766    higher priority by either using dot-notation lookup or the bracket
767    syntax. This also changed the AST slightly. ``Subscript`` is gone
768    and was replaced with ``Getitem`` and ``Getattr``.
769-   Added support for preprocessing and token stream filtering for
770    extensions. This would allow extensions to allow simplified gettext
771    calls in template data and something similar.
772-   Added ``TemplateStream.dump``.
773-   Added missing support for implicit string literal concatenation.
774    ``{{ "foo" "bar" }}`` is equivalent to ``{{ "foobar" }}``
775-   ``else`` is optional for conditional expressions. If not given it
776    evaluates to ``false``.
777-   Improved error reporting for undefined values by providing a
778    position.
779-   ``filesizeformat`` filter uses decimal prefixes now per default and
780    can be set to binary mode with the second parameter.
781-   Fixed bug in finalizer
