docs: add release-notes as appendix

The release notes used to be an appendix in the manual. After
converting to markdown that appendix got lost. This commit
reintroduces the release notes into the manual.

[[sec-release-19.03]]
== Release 19.03
The 19.03 release branch became the stable branch in April, 2019.
[[sec-release-19.03-highlights]]
=== Highlights
:opt-home-file-source: opt-home.file._name_.source
This release has the following notable changes:
* The <<{opt-home-file-source}>> option now allows source files to be
hidden, that is, having a name starting with the `.` character. It
also allows the source file name to contain characters not typically
allowed for Nix store paths. For example, your configuration can now
contain things such as
+
[source,nix]
----
home.file."my file".source = ./. + "/file with spaces!";
----
* The type used for the systemd unit options under
<<opt-systemd.user.services>>, <<opt-systemd.user.sockets>>, etc. has
been changed to offer more robust merging of configurations. If you
don't override values within systemd units then you are not affected
by this change. Unfortunately, if you do override unit values you may
encounter errors.
+
In particular, if you get an error saying that a ``unique option'' is
``defined multiple times'' then you need to use the
https://nixos.org/nixos/manual/#sec-option-definitions-setting-priorities[`mkForce`]
function. For example,
+
[source,nix]
----
systemd.user.services.foo.Service.ExecStart = "/foo/bar";
----
+
becomes
+
[source,nix]
----
systemd.user.services.foo.Service.ExecStart = lib.mkForce "/foo/bar";
----
+
We had to make this change because the old merging was causing too
many confusing situations for people.
[[sec-release-19.03-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below. These
changes are only active if the <<opt-home.stateVersion>> option is set
to ``19.03'' or later.
* There is now an option <<opt-programs.beets.enable>> that defaults
to `false`. Before the module would be active if the
<<opt-programs.beets.settings>> option was non-empty.

[[sec-release-20.03]]
== Release 20.03
The 20.03 release branch became the stable branch in April, 2020.
[[sec-release-20.03-highlights]]
=== Highlights
This release has the following notable changes:
* Assigning a list to the <<opt-home.file>>, <<opt-xdg.configFile>>,
and <<opt-xdg.dataFile>> options is now deprecated and will produce a
warning message if used. Specifically, if your configuration currently
contains something like
+
[source,nix]
----
home.file = [
{
target = ".config/foo.txt";
text = "bar";
}
]
----
+
then it should be updated to instead use the equivalent attribute set form
+
[source,nix]
----
home.file = {
".config/foo.txt".text = "bar";
}
----
+
Support for the list form will be removed in Home Manager version
20.09.
* The `lib` function attribute given to modules is now enriched with
an attribute `hm` containing extra library functions specific for Home
Manager. More specifically, `lib.hm` is now the same as `config.lib`
and should be the preferred choice since it is more robust.
+
Therefore, if your configuration makes use of, for example,
`config.lib.dag` to create activation script blocks, it is recommended
to change to `lib.hm.dag`.
+
Note, in the unlikely case that you are
+
** using Home Manager's NixOS or nix-darwin module,
** have made your own Home Manager module containing an top-level
option named `config` or `options`, and
** assign to this option in your system configuration inside a plain
attribute set, i.e., without a function argument,
+
then you must update your configuration to perform the option
assignment inside a `config` attribute. For example, instead of
+
[source,nix]
----
home-manager.users.jane = { config = "foo"; };
----
+
use
+
[source,nix]
----
home-manager.users.jane = { config.config = "foo"; };
----
* The `services.compton` module has been deprecated and instead the
new module `services.picom` should be used. This is because Nixpkgs no
longer packages compton, and instead packages the (mostly) compatible
fork called picom.
* The list form of the <<opt-programs.ssh.matchBlocks>> option has
been deprecated and configurations requiring match blocks in a defined
order should switch to using DAG entries instead. For example, a
configuration
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.ssh.matchBlocks = [
{
host = "alpha.foo.com";
user = "jd";
}
{
host = "*.foo.com";
user = "john.doe";
}
];
----
+
can be expressed along the lines of
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.ssh.matchBlocks = {
"*.example.com" = {
user = "john.doe";
}
"alpha.example.com" = lib.hm.dag.entryBefore ["*.example.com"] {
user = "jd";
}
};
----
+
Support for the list form will be removed in Home Manager version
20.09.
[[sec-release-20.03-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below. These
changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to
"20.03" or later.
* The <<opt-programs.zsh.history.path>> option is no longer prepended
by `$HOME`, which allows specifying absolute paths, for example,
using the xdg module. Also, the default value is fixed to
`$HOME/.zsh_history` and `dotDir` path is not prepended to it
anymore.
* The newsboat module will now default in displaying `queries` before `urls` in
its main window. This makes sense in the case when one has a lot of URLs and
few queries.

[[sec-release-20.09-highlights]]

* Nothing has happened.
[[sec-release-20.09-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below. These
changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to
"20.09" or later.
* The options <<opt-home.homeDirectory>> and <<opt-home.username>> no
longer have default values and must therefore be provided in your
configuration. Previously their values would default to the content of
the environment variables `HOME` and `USER`, respectively.
+
--
Further, the options <<opt-xdg.cacheHome>>, <<opt-xdg.configHome>>,
and <<opt-xdg.dataHome>> will no longer be affected by the
`XDG_CACHE_HOME`, `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`, and `XDG_DATA_HOME` environment
variables. They now unconditionally default to
- `"${config.home.homeDirectory}/.cache"`,
- `"${config.home.homeDirectory}/.config"`, and
- `"${config.home.homeDirectory}/.local/share"`.
If you choose to switch to state version 20.09 then you must set these
options if you use non-default XDG base directory paths.
The initial configuration generated by
[source,console]
$ nix-shell '<home-manager>' -A install
will automatically include these options, when necessary.
--
* Git's `smtpEncryption` option is now set to `tls` only if both <<opt-accounts.email.accounts.\_name_.smtp.tls.enable>> and <<opt-accounts.email.accounts.\_name_.smtp.tls.useStartTls>> are `true`. If only <<opt-accounts.email.accounts.\_name_.smtp.tls.enable>> is `true`, `ssl` is used instead.
* The `nixpkgs` module no longer references `<nixpkgs>`. Before it would do so when building the `pkgs` module argument. Starting with state version 20.09, the `pkgs` argument is instead built from the same Nixpkgs that was used to initialize the Home Manager modules. This is useful, for example, when using Home Manager within a Nix Flake. If you want to keep using `<nixpkgs>` with state version ≥ 20.09 then add
+
[source,nix]
_module.args.pkgsPath = <nixpkgs>;
+
to your Home Manager configuration.
* The options `wayland.windowManager.sway.config.bars` and `opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.bars` have been changed so that most of the suboptions are now nullable and default to `null`. The default for these two options has been changed to manually set the old defaults for each suboption. The overall effect is that if the `bars` options is not set, then the default remains the same. On the other hand, something like:
+
--

[[sec-release-21.05]]
== Release 21.05
The 21.05 release branch became the stable branch in May, 2021.
[[sec-release-21.05-highlights]]
=== Highlights
This release has the following notable changes:
* The `opt-programs.broot.verbs` option is now a list rather than an
attribute set. To migrate, move the keys of the attrset into the list
items' `invocation` keys. For example,
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.broot.verbs = {
"p" = { execution = ":parent"; };
};
----
+
becomes
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.broot.verbs = [
{
invocation = "p";
execution = ":parent";
}
];
----
* The <<opt-programs.mpv.package>> option has been changed to allow custom
derivations. The following configuration is now possible:
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.mpv.package = (pkgs.wrapMpv (pkgs.mpv-unwrapped.override {
vapoursynthSupport = true;
}) {
extraMakeWrapperArgs = [
"--prefix" "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ":" "${pkgs.vapoursynth-mvtools}/lib/vapoursynth"
];
});
----
+
As a result of this change, <<opt-programs.mpv.package>> is no longer the
resulting derivation. Use the newly introduced `programs.mpv.finalPackage`
instead.
* The <<opt-programs.rofi.extraConfig>> option is now an attribute set rather
than a string. To migrate, move each line into the attribute set,
removing the `rofi.` prefix from the keys. For example,
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.rofi.extraConfig = ''
rofi.show-icons: true
rofi.modi: drun,emoji,ssh
'';
----
+
becomes
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.rofi.extraConfig = {
show-icons = true;
modi = "drun,emoji,ssh";
};
----
+
* The <<opt-programs.rofi.theme>> option now supports defining a theme
using an attribute set, the following configuration is now possible:
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.rofi.theme = let
# Necessary to avoid quoting non-string values
inherit (config.lib.formats.rasi) mkLiteral;
in {
"@import" = "~/.config/rofi/theme.rasi";
"*" = {
background-color = mkLiteral "#000000";
foreground-color = mkLiteral "rgba ( 250, 251, 252, 100 % )";
border-color = mkLiteral "#FFFFFF";
width = 512;
};
"#textbox-prompt-colon" = {
expand = false;
str = ":";
margin = mkLiteral "0px 0.3em 0em 0em";
text-color = mkLiteral "@foreground-color";
};
};
----
* The `services.redshift.extraOptions` and `services.gammastep.extraOptions`
options were removed in favor of <<opt-services.redshift.settings>> and

example:
+
[source,nix]
----
services.redshift = {
dawnTime = "6:00-7:45";
duskTime = "18:35-20:15";

for the available additional options in each program.
* Specifying `programs.neomutt.binds.map` or `programs.neomutt.macros.map` as a
single string is now deprecated in favor of specfiying it as a list of
strings.
* The `programs.neovim.configure` is deprecated in favor of other `programs.neovim` options;
please use the other options at your disposal:
+
[source,nix]
----
configure.packages.*.opt -> programs.neovim.plugins = [ { plugin = ...; optional = true; }]
configure.packages.*.start -> programs.neovim.plugins = [ { plugin = ...; }]
configure.customRC -> programs.neovim.extraConfig
----
* Home Manager now respects the `NO_COLOR` environment variable as per
https://no-color.org/[].
* Qt module now supports <<opt-qt.style.name>> to specify a theme name and
<<opt-qt.style.package>> to specify a theme package. If you have set
<<opt-qt.platformTheme>> to `gnome`, a <<opt-qt.style.package>> compatible
with both Qt and Gtk is now required to be set. For instance:
+
[source,nix]
----
qt = {
platformTheme = "gnome";
style = {
name = "adwaita-dark";
package = pkgs.adwaita-qt;
};
};
----
* The library type `fontType` now has a `size` attribute in addition to `name`. For example:
+
[source,nix]
----
font = {
name = "DejaVu Sans";
size = 8;
};
----
* The <<opt-programs.htop.settings>> option is introduced to replace individual
options in `programs.htop`. To migrate, set the htop options directly in
<<opt-programs.htop.settings>>. For example:
+
[source,nix]
----
programs.htop = {
enabled = true;
settings = {
color_scheme = 5;
delay = 15;
highlight_base_name = 1;
highlight_megabytes = 1;
highlight_threads = 1;

# Release 21.05 {#sec-release-21.05}
The 21.05 release branch became the stable branch in May, 2021.
## Highlights {#sec-release-21.05-highlights}
This release has the following notable changes:
- The 'opt-programs.broot.verbs\` option is now a list rather than an
attribute set. To migrate, move the keys of the attrset into the
list items' `invocation` keys. For example,
``` nix
programs.broot.verbs = {
"p" = { execution = ":parent"; };
};
```
becomes
``` nix
programs.broot.verbs = [
{
invocation = "p";
execution = ":parent";
}
];
```
- The [opt-programs.mpv.package](#opt-programs.mpv.package) option has been changed to
allow custom derivations. The following configuration is now
possible:
``` nix
programs.mpv.package = (pkgs.wrapMpv (pkgs.mpv-unwrapped.override {
vapoursynthSupport = true;
}) {
extraMakeWrapperArgs = [
"--prefix" "LD_LIBRARY_PATH" ":" "${pkgs.vapoursynth-mvtools}/lib/vapoursynth"
];
});
```
As a result of this change, [opt-programs.mpv.package](#opt-programs.mpv.package) is no
longer the resulting derivation. Use the newly introduced
`programs.mpv.finalPackage` instead.
- The [opt-programs.rofi.extraConfig](#opt-programs.rofi.extraConfig) option is now an attribute
set rather than a string. To migrate, move each line into the
attribute set, removing the `rofi.` prefix from the keys. For
example,
``` nix
programs.rofi.extraConfig = ''
rofi.show-icons: true
rofi.modi: drun,emoji,ssh
'';
```
becomes
``` nix
programs.rofi.extraConfig = {
show-icons = true;
modi = "drun,emoji,ssh";
};
```
- The [opt-programs.rofi.theme](#opt-programs.rofi.theme) option now supports defining a
theme using an attribute set, the following configuration is now
possible:
``` nix
programs.rofi.theme = let
# Necessary to avoid quoting non-string values
inherit (config.lib.formats.rasi) mkLiteral;
in {
"@import" = "~/.config/rofi/theme.rasi";
"*" = {
background-color = mkLiteral "#000000";
foreground-color = mkLiteral "rgba ( 250, 251, 252, 100 % )";
border-color = mkLiteral "#FFFFFF";
width = 512;
};
"#textbox-prompt-colon" = {
expand = false;
str = ":";
margin = mkLiteral "0px 0.3em 0em 0em";
text-color = mkLiteral "@foreground-color";
};
};
```
- The `services.redshift.extraOptions` and
`services.gammastep.extraOptions` options were removed in favor of
[opt-services.redshift.settings](#opt-services.redshift.settings) and
`services.gammastep.settings`, that are now an attribute set rather
than a string. They also support new features not available before,
for example:
``` nix
services.redshift = {
dawnTime = "6:00-7:45";
duskTime = "18:35-20:15";
settings = {
redshift = {
gamma = 0.8;
adjustment-method = "randr";
};
randr = {
screen = 0;
};
};
};
```
It is recommended to check either
[redshift.conf.sample](https://github.com/jonls/redshift/blob/master/redshift.conf.sample)
or
[gammastep.conf.sample](https://gitlab.com/chinstrap/gammastep/-/blob/master/gammastep.conf.sample)
for the available additional options in each program.
- Specifying `programs.neomutt.binds.map` or
`programs.neomutt.macros.map` as a single string is now deprecated
in favor of specfiying it as a list of strings.
- The `programs.neovim.configure` is deprecated in favor of other
`programs.neovim` options; please use the other options at your
disposal:
``` nix
configure.packages.*.opt -> programs.neovim.plugins = [ { plugin = ...; optional = true; }]
configure.packages.*.start -> programs.neovim.plugins = [ { plugin = ...; }]
configure.customRC -> programs.neovim.extraConfig
```
- Home Manager now respects the `NO_COLOR` environment variable as per
<https://no-color.org/>.
- Qt module now supports [opt-qt.style.name](#opt-qt.style.name) to specify a theme
name and [opt-qt.style.package](#opt-qt.style.package) to specify a theme package. If
you have set [opt-qt.platformTheme](#opt-qt.platformTheme) to `gnome`, a
[opt-qt.style.package](#opt-qt.style.package) compatible with both Qt and Gtk is now
required to be set. For instance:
``` nix
qt = {
platformTheme = "gnome";
style = {
name = "adwaita-dark";
package = pkgs.adwaita-qt;
};
};
```
- The library type `fontType` now has a `size` attribute in addition
to `name`. For example:
``` nix
font = {
name = "DejaVu Sans";
size = 8;

[[sec-release-21.11]]
== Release 21.11
The 21.11 release branch became the stable branch in November, 2021.
[[sec-release-21.11-highlights]]
=== Highlights
This release has the following notable changes:
* All Home Manager modules are now loaded on all platforms. With this
change you will get a more descriptive error message if you attempt to
enable a module that is incompatible with the host platform.
+
Previously, modules that were platform specific would only be loaded
on that particular platform. For example, a module defining a
https://systemd.io/[systemd] service would only be loaded when the
host platform was Linux. This reduced evaluation times, simplified the
generated documentation, and made it impossible to accidentally use
modules that do not support the host platform.
+
While the above benefits are quite nice, avoiding module loads also
brings a few problems. For example, the
https://nix-community.github.io/home-manager/[public documentation]
will only show the options available for Linux hosts and the
documentation cannot make references to options within modules that
are unavailable on some hosts. Finally, users who wish to use the same
configuration file for different platforms cannot do so, even if the
platform incompatible options are unused.
+
Ultimately, the benefits of loading all modules won and the behavior
has now changed. For associated discussion see
https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/issues/1906[issue #1906].
* Rofi version 1.7.0 removed many options that were used by the module and replaced them with custom themes, which are more flexible and powerful.
+
You can replicate your old configuration by moving those options to <<opt-programs.rofi.theme>>. Keep in mind that the syntax is different so you may need to do some changes.
* Taskwarrior version 2.6.0 respects XDG Specification for the config file now.
Option <<opt-programs.taskwarrior.config>> and friends now generate the config file at
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/task/taskrc` instead of `~/.taskrc`.
[[sec-release-21.11-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below. These
changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to
"21.11" or later.
* The <<opt-home.keyboard>> option now defaults to `null`, meaning that Home Manager won't do any keyboard layout management. For example, `setxkbmap` won't be run in X sessions.
* The <<opt-programs.pet.settings>> option no longer place its value inside a `General` attribute.
For example,
+
[source,nix]
programs.pet.settings.editor = "nvim";
+
becomes
+
[source,nix]
programs.pet.settings.General.editor = "nvim";
* The <<opt-programs.waybar.settings>> option now allows defining modules directly under <<opt-programs.waybar.settings>>.
For example,
+
[source,nix]
programs.waybar.settings.modules."custom/my-module" = { };

== Release 22.11
The 22.11 release branch became the stable branch in November, 2022.
[[sec-release-22.11-highlights]]
=== Highlights
This release has the following notable changes:
* The <<opt-home.stateVersion>> option no longer has a default value.
It used to default to ``18.09'', which was the Home Manager version
that introduced the option. If your configuration does not explicitly
set this option then you need to add
+
[source,nix]
home.stateVersion = "18.09";
+
to your configuration.
* The Flake function `homeManagerConfiguration` has been simplified.
Specifically, the arguments
+
--
- `configuration`,
- `username`,
- `homeDirectory`,
- `stateVersion`,
- `extraModules`, and
- `system`
--
+
have been removed. Instead use the new `modules` argument, which
accepts a list of NixOS modules.
+
Further, the `pkgs` argument is now mandatory and should be set to
`nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system}` where `nixpkgs` is the Nixpkgs
input of your choice.
+
For example, if your Flake currently contains
+
[source,nix]
----
homeManagerConfiguration {
configuration = import ./home.nix;
system = "x86_64-linux";
username = "jdoe";
homeDirectory = "/home/jdoe";
stateVersion = "22.05";
extraModules = [ ./some-extra-module.nix ];
}
----

then you can change it to

[source,nix]
----
homeManagerConfiguration {
pkgs = nixpkgs.legacyPackages.${system};

./home.nix
./some-extra-module.nix
{
home = {
username = "jdoe";
homeDirectory = "/home/jdoe";
stateVersion = "22.05";

];
}
----
+
Of course, you can move the assignment of <<opt-home.username>>,
<<opt-home.homeDirectory>>, and <<opt-home.stateVersion>> to some
other file or simply place them in your `home.nix`.
* The `services.picom` module has been refactored to use structural
settings.
+
As a result `services.picom.extraOptions` has been removed in favor of
<<opt-services.picom.settings>>. Also, `services.picom.blur*` were
removed since upstream changed the blur settings to be more flexible.
You can migrate the blur settings to use
<<opt-services.picom.settings>> instead.
* The `services.compton` module has been removed. It was deprecated in
release 20.03. Use `services.picom` instead.
[[sec-release-22.11-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below.
These changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to "22.11" or later.
* The <<opt-services.mpd.musicDirectory>> option now defaults to the
value of <<opt-xdg.userDirs.music>> if <<opt-xdg.userDirs.enable>> is
enabled. Otherwise it is undefined and must be specified in the user
configuration.
* The activation script now resets `PATH` before running. Before, the
user's `PATH` environment variable would be used in the script and
this made it possible for commands in the activation script to run
arbitrary commands accessible to the user. We now restrict the
activation script to commands that are explicitly specified.
+
There is no official way to restore the old behavior. We attempt to
make the activation script as reproducible as possible and honoring
the user's `PATH` reduces reproducibility.
+
If you need to run a command in an activation script block then refer
to the command by its absolute command path, such as
`${pkgs.hello}/bin/hello`.

[[sec-release-23.05]]
== Release 23.05
The 23.05 release branch became the stable branch in May, 2023.
[[sec-release-23.05-highlights]]
=== Highlights
This release has the following notable changes:
* Firefox add-ons are now managed per-profile.
That is, if you are currently having
+
[source,nix]
programs.firefox.extensions = [ foo bar ];
+
in your configuration then you must change it to
+
[source,nix]
programs.firefox.profiles.myprofile.extensions = [ foo bar ];
* The default configuration location has been changed from
`~/.config/nixpkgs/home.nix` to `~/.config/home-manager/home.nix`.
+
Similarly, if you are using a Nix flake based setup
then the default flake file location has changed from
`~/.config/nixpkgs/flake.nix` to `~/.config/home-manager/flake.nix`.
+
The old location will continue to work but using it will trigger a warning message.
We changed the default configuration location to avoid confusion about
which files belong to Home Manager and which belong to Nixpkgs.
* The `home-manager` tool now offers an `init` command.
This command can be used to generate an initial Home Manager configuration,
and optionally also activate it.
The recommended installation method for a standalone Home Manager setup
with Nix flakes uses this new command.
The standard installation method remains the same but uses the new command internally.
See <<sec-flakes-standalone>> for more.
[[sec-release-23.05-state-version-changes]]
=== State Version Changes
The state version in this release includes the changes below.
These changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to "23.05" or later.
* The options
+
--
- <<opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.window.titlebar>>
- <<opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.floating.titlebar>>
- <<opt-wayland.windowManager.sway.config.window.titlebar>>
- <<opt-wayland.windowManager.sway.config.floating.titlebar>>
--
+
now default to `true` which is consistent with the default values for
those options used by `i3` and `sway`.

- Firefox add-ons are now managed per-profile. That is, if you are
currently having
``` nix
programs.firefox.extensions = [ foo bar ];
```
in your configuration then you must change it to
``` nix
programs.firefox.profiles.myprofile.extensions = [ foo bar ];
```
- The default configuration location has been changed from
`~/.config/nixpkgs/home.nix` to `~/.config/home-manager/home.nix`.
Similarly, if you are using a Nix flake based setup then the default
flake file location has changed from `~/.config/nixpkgs/flake.nix`
to `~/.config/home-manager/flake.nix`.
The old location will continue to work but using it will trigger a
warning message. We changed the default configuration location to
avoid confusion about which files belong to Home Manager and which
belong to Nixpkgs.
- The `home-manager` tool now offers an `init` command. This command
can be used to generate an initial Home Manager configuration, and
optionally also activate it. The recommended installation method for
a standalone Home Manager setup with Nix flakes uses this new
command. The standard installation method remains the same but uses
the new command internally. See [sec-flakes-standalone](#sec-flakes-standalone) for
more.
## State Version Changes {#sec-release-23.05-state-version-changes}
The state version in this release includes the changes below. These
changes are only active if the `home.stateVersion` option is set to
\"23.05\" or later.
- The options
- [opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.window.titlebar](#opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.window.titlebar)
- [opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.floating.titlebar](#opt-xsession.windowManager.i3.config.floating.titlebar)
- [opt-wayland.windowManager.sway.config.window.titlebar](#opt-wayland.windowManager.sway.config.window.titlebar)
- [opt-wayland.windowManager.sway.config.floating.titlebar](#opt-wayland.windowManager.sway.config.floating.titlebar)
now default to `true` which is consistent with the default values
for those options used by `i3` and `sway`.

[[sec-release-23.11]]
== Release 23.11
The 23.11 release branch became stable in November, 2023.
[[sec-release-23.11-highlights]]
=== Highlights
:babelfish: https://github.com/bouk/babelfish
:nixpkgs-markdown: https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/unstable/#sec-contributing-markup
This release has the following notable changes:
* When using <<opt-programs.fish.enable>>, the setup code
for <<opt-home.sessionVariables>> is now translated
with {babelfish}[babelfish].
This should result in significantly faster shell startup times
but could theoretically break
if you have very complex bash expressions in a session variable.
Please report any issues you experience.
* The `.release` file in the Home Manager source tree
has been supplanted by `release.json`,
which contains more information about the branch.
If you have any external code reading this file,
please switch to consuming `release.json` instead.
The `.release` file will be removed in 24.05.
* Home Manager has migrated to using
the upstream Nixpkgs `lib.nixosOptionsDoc` processor
for option documentation.
If you have any external Home Manager modules,
their option descriptions and literal examples should be translated
to {nixpkgs-markdown}[Nixpkgs-flavoured Markdown].
* The `services.password-store-sync` module has been removed.
Use `services.git-sync` instead.
