Overview of changes in GLib 2.75.3, UNRELEASED
Overview of changes in GLib 2.75.3, 2023-02-13
==============================================
* Drop the implementation of GSlice, and make the API use the system `malloc()`
internally (#1079) (based on investigation work by multiple people)
* Use a thread-spawning thread to keep thread scheduler settings consistent;
fixes GThreadPool critical warnings due to failing to set scheduler settings
in some situations (#2769, work by Sebastian Dröge and others)
* GIR annotation improvements for multiple APIs (#2827, #2894, #2895, #2897,
!3198, !3234, !3236, !3238, !3245, !3266, work by multiple people)
* Optimise printing of nested maybes in `g_variant_print()` (#2862, work by Philip Withnall)
* Use `tap` test protocol within GLib, and support TAP 13/14 (!3140, work by Marco Trevisan)
* Fix a regression in glib-compile-schemas 2.75.2 causing schemas and override
files to be sorted incorrectly (!3188, spotted by John Wudrick, work by Philip Withnall)
* Support per-desktop overrides in `GSettingsAction` (!3193, work by Philip Withnall)
* Various optimisations to `GString` (!3199, work by Matthias Clasen and Marco Trevisan)
* Reduce allocations in message printing functions if theres nothing to format (!3205, work by Marco Trevisan)
* Add inline version of `g_strdup()`, allowing the compiler to do `NULL` folding
and constant folding on `strlen()` calls (!3209, work by Marco Trevisan)
* Add a `GPathBuf` API for building and manipulating file paths (!3216, work by Emmanuele Bassi)
* Add `g_string_free_and_steal()` and use it to warn on unused results from
`g_string_free (_, FALSE)` (!3219, !3226, work by Matthias Clasen and Sergey Bugaev)
* Add `g_free_sized()` and `g_aligned_free_sized()` to mirror the upcoming
`free_sized()` function in C23; use these if porting away from `g_slice_free()`
(!3231, work by Philip Withnall)
* Fix underspecified dependencies on generated headers in `meson.build`, which
should reduce spurious build failures (!3260, work by Eli Schwartz)

Copa)

not permitted (Sebastian Dröge)

- #2894 g_value_take_string: wrong ownership transfer info in GIR (Lukáš
Tyrychtr)
- #2895 g_io_channel_get_line_term: wrong GIR (Bart Jacobs)
- #2897 g_time_zone_adjust_time: GIR says gint64 but it's gint64* (Bart
Jacobs)
- #2898 g_print replaces non-ascii characters with question mark
- #2900 msys2-clang64: g_spawn_[a]sync() fails in clang builds when envp is
not NULL
