Raw Blame History

  • Fixed dist downloads from Bitbucket
  • Fixed some regressions related to xdebug disabling
  • Fixed --minor-only flag in outdated command

  • Added --minor-only to the outdated command to only show updates to minor versions and ignore new major versions
  • Added --apcu-autoloader to the update/install commands and --apcu to dump-autoload to enable an APCu-caching autoloader, which can be more efficient than --classmap-authoritative if you attempt to autoload many classes that do not exist, or if you can not use authoritative classmaps for some reason
