Special notes or breaking changes
T384391 is a known issue with TypeaheadSearch. The PHP version is full-width and shrinks when the Vue version loads.
Pre-release
T387911 resolved an issue with the release script.
- Issue: The script generated untracked design token files.
- Action: git bisect to find the bad commit, specifically the rimraf version bump from v3.0.2 to v6.0.1.
- Solution: To resolve this, the postpublish script in Codex needed the glob flag. Based on the rimraf docs, v3 to v4 required a --glob flag/option.
Globbing requires the --glob
