Changes

The document records all past pytask releases and what went into them in reverse chronological order. Releases follow semantic versioning and all releases are available on PyPI and Anaconda.org.

Unreleased

#837 skips incremental live rendering on non-interactive output while preserving the final build table and live-manager lifecycle.
#836 hardens GitHub Actions workflows with zizmor, pinned action SHAs, explicit permissions, and a dedicated code-scanning upload workflow.
#830 replaces the internal networkx dependency with a pytask-owned DAG implementation, lazy-loads networkx only for DAG export and visualization, and makes the networkx dependency optional for core builds.
#822 fixes unstable signatures for remote UPath-backed PathNodes and PickleNodes so unchanged remote inputs are no longer reported as missing from the state database on subsequent runs.
#820 fixes collection and node display for remote UPath-backed nodes, while preserving correct handling of local file:// and local:// UPaths across platforms.
#743 adds the pytask.lock lockfile as the primary state backend with a portable format and documentation. When no lockfile exists, pytask reads the legacy SQLite state and writes pytask.lock; pytask build continues updating the legacy database for downgrade compatibility for some time.
#789 switches the documentation site to Zensical.
#787 makes the attributes field mandatory on PNode and PProvisionalNode, and preserves existing node attributes when loading entries from the data catalog.
#744 removes the direct dependency on attrs and migrates internal models to dataclasses.
#766 moves runtime profiling persistence from SQLite to a JSON snapshot plus append-only journal in .pytask/, keeping runtime data resilient to crashes and compacted on normal build exits.
#776 clears decoration-time annotation_locals snapshots after collection so task functions remain picklable in process-based parallel backends.
#788 updates debugger interaction tests to support Python-version-specific pdb stepping behavior and avoid frame-specific assumptions on repeated breakpoints.

#725 fixes the pickle node hash test by accounting for Python 3.14's default pickle protocol.
#726 adapts the interactive debugger integration to Python 3.14's updated pdb behaviour and keeps pytest-style capturing intact.
#732 fixes importing packages with missing __init__.py files.
#739 closes file descriptors for the capture manager between CLI runs and disposes stale database engines to prevent hitting OS file descriptor limits in large test runs.
#734 migrates from mypy to ty for type checking.
#736 updates the comparison to other tools documentation and adds a section on the Common Workflow Language (CWL) and WorkflowHub.

#84 fixes an error in the path normalization introduced by #81.
#85 sorts collected tasks, dependencies, and products by name.
#87 fixes that dirty versions are displayed in the documentation.
#88 adds the pytask profile command to show information on tasks like duration and file size of products.
#93 fixes the display of parametrized arguments in the console.
#94 adds show_locals which allows to print local variables in tracebacks.
#96 implements a spinner to show the progress during the collection.
#99 enables color support in WSL and fixes show_locals during collection.
#101 implement to visualize the project's DAG. #108 refines the implementation.
#102 adds an example if a parametrization provides not the number of arguments specified in the signature.
#105 simplifies the logging of the tasks.
#107 adds and new hook _pytask.hookspecs.pytask_unconfigure which makes pytask return pdb.set_trace at the end of a session which allows to use breakpoint inside test functions using pytask.
#109 makes pytask require networkx>=2.4 since previous versions fail with Python 3.9.
#110 adds a "New Features" section to the README.rst.
