• The reminder to check task news is now correctly removed once the news has been read.

v3.0.2

This release fixes an accidentally-included debug print which polluted output of reports with the Taskwarrior version (#3389)

The release consists of the following archives:

task-3.0.2.tar.gz (sha256 633b76637b0c74e4845ffa28249f01a16ed2c84000ece58d4358e72bf88d5f10)
Release tarball. Use this to build and install Taskwarrior.

Note that the "Source Code" links below are simply archives of the source repository and require additional steps to build and install.

v3.0.1: Update for 3.0.1 (#3382)

This patch revision of Taskwarrior addresses a few minor issues in the 3.0.0 release: improvements to task news, better error handling and documentation, and fixes for interactions with hooks. It also fixes an issue with the release tarball, #3294.

The release consists of the following archives:

task-3.0.1.tar.gz (sha256 e36653304c4850e7808bd417309c1e8ef6ce7c44ae8d7e553a076e36c0871655)
Release tarball. Use this to build and install Taskwarrior.

v3.0.0

This new major version of Taskwarrior comes with an important change: the sync functionality has been rewritten entirely, and no longer supports taskserver/taskd. Instead, the recommended solution is a cloud-storage backend, although taskchampion-sync-server is also available. See https://taskwarrior.org/docs/upgrade-3/ for information on upgrading to Taskwarrior 3.0.

Note that this is a breaking upgrade: users must export their task database from 2.x and re-import it into 3.x. Hooks run during task import, so if you have any hooks defined, temporarily disable them for this operation. See #3314.

This version also introduces Taskchampion, a new task-storage core for Taskwarrior written in Rust. Building Taskwarrior now requires a reasonably recent version of the Rust toolchain (1.70.0).

The release consists of the following archives:

task-3.0.0.tar.gz (sha256 30f397081044f5dc2e5a0ba51609223011a23281cd9947ea718df98d149fcc83)

2.6.2 - Gotta catch 'em all!

Since Taskwarrior strives to be the very best, we are proud to announce the availability of the 2.6.2 bugfix release. Sometimes being best also means best at releasing versions with problems that need to be fixed 🙂 and (hopefully, eventually) catching them all.

This bugfix-only release improves the upgrade path to 2.6.x, prevents corruption of the depends attribute when syncing, provides better support for detecting invalid write contexts and fixes a handful of small regressions introduced in our recent 2.6.0 release. The full changelog is once again available in our traditional plaintext form.

We are grateful to our users who have tested the 2.6.0/2.6.1 releases and provided feedback or contributions:
