  • Restore compatibility with the compiler's command line by accepting
    the -safe-string flag as a no-op instead of rejecting it. (#1544,
    fixes #1518)

    fixes #1420)

  • Add a new verbosity=smart mode for type enclosing that only expand
    modules' types (#1374, @ulugbekna)
  • Improve locate for labels' declarations in the current buffer.
    (#1505, fixes #1524)
  • Fix locate on module without implementation (#1522, fixes #1519)

    @mattiase)
• test suite
  • Add tests for constructors' documentation (#1511)
