- See all available options by running cmake -L | grep PACKAGES_DISABLE_
- This option does NOT remove the detection code. It just disables the detection at runtime. One can still use --packages-disabled "" to enable all package managers.
Add new option --show-localip-{speed,mtu} (LocalIP)
Add new module Btrfs, which prints all mounted Btrfs volumes, like Zpool module (#1262, Linux)

This release added basic support for SunOS (Solaris, illumos). The binaries provided in the release lack a few useful features (such as Display detection). People who use SunOS should consider building fastfetch themselves.

Changes:

Support of --gen-config conf is deprecated accordingly, and will be removed in 2.3.0 (next minor version)
The global flag --allow-slow-operations is split into some explicit flags in different modules
- --packages-winget: control whether winget packages count should be detected. Note it's a very slow operation, please enable it with caution.

First stable release of Fastfetch V2

Changes:

Unescape strings only when parsing .conf files
- Previously: $ NO_CONFIG=1 fastfetch --os-key \\\\ -s os -l none prints \: *. Note the backslashes are unescaped twice (once by shell and once by fastfetch).
- Now: $ NO_CONFIG=1 fastfetch --os-key \\\\ -s os -l none prints \\: *
Remove option shortcut -c (alias of --color), which is more commonly used as alias of --config

Bugfixes:

Fix label detection. Use --disk-key 'Disk ({2})' to display it (Disk, Linux)

2.0.0-beta

Fastfetch v2 introduces a new configuration file format: JSON config. Please refer to https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/wiki/Configuration for details.

Changes:

Drop the dependency of cJSON. We now use yyjson to parse JSON documents.
Remove --shell-version and --terminal-version. They are always enabled (Terminal / Shell)
Remove --*-error-format, which seems to be useless
Remove --display-detect-name. Display name is always detected, and will be printed if multiple displays are detected
Deprecate --set and --set-keyless; they may be removed in future releases. Use JSON config with Custom module instead
Remove the special handling of Command module (it can be set once in the triditional config.conf). Use JSON config with Command module instead
Change --wm-theme-* to --wmtheme-*. Affect key and format (WMTheme)
Change --terminal-font-* to --terminalfont-*. Affect key and format (TerminalFont)

Fix specifying --color second time won't clear the value set before (#517)

Logo:

Change the special handling of kitty protocol with .png image file to a new image protocol kitty-direct. This is the fastest image protocol because fastfetch doesn't need to pre-encode the image to base64 or something and the image content doesn't need to be transmitted via tty. Note:
1. Although konsole was said to support kitty image protocol, it doesn't support kitty-direct
2. wezterm support more image formats other than .png (tested with .jpg and .webp)
Port all logos supported by neo(wo)fetch. Fastfetch now has 350 builtin logos in total.

1.7.0

This release brings support for MacOS! The basics things are working, but it is far from feature parity with Linux. I developed this in a VM, so bugs on real hardware are likely. If you have a Mac and no idea what to do with your free time, i am very happy to accept pull requests / work on issues.

A lot of things were changed under the hood to make this possible, which should bring better performance and stability on all platforms.

Besides that, the following things have changed:

Features:

The binary prefix used can now be configured, and is used consistently across all modules. Set --binary-prefix to iec (default), si or jedec.
AMD GPUs now have a much better name, if the file /usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.ids exists. For example my dedicated GPU, which was displayed as AMD/ATI Radeon RX 5600 OEM/5600 XT / 5700/5700 XT, is now AMD Radeon RX 5600M.

Logos:

MacOS
CachyOS small (@sirlucjan, #220)

the --file option, which can be used to display the contents of a file as the logo, is now working again.
