# Announcing GoReleaser v1.21 - mostly bug fixes
A boring release, mostly bug fixes.
Boring is good.
<!-- more -->
## Highlights
- You can now sort tags by `semver` in [GoReleaser Pro][pro]
- Docker pushes will now be retried when the registry yields a 503. It'll retry
10 times.
- Winget: added support for `package_dependencies` and update schema version to
1.5.0.
- GoReleaser will now run against Gerrit, Soft-Serve, and other Git providers,
as long as the SCM release is disabled.
- You can now ignore Git tags that match a regular expression.
- You can now skip pre build hooks on `goreleaser build`.
- Properly `go mod` handling on pre-mods Go versions.
- WASI support.
- New templateable fields and functions.
- Several bug fixes, specially when the runtime OS is Windows.
Besides that, some important refactories that should help evolving GoReleaser
further:
- `--skip` merges all the `--skip-*` flags, and will be extended to more
features (open an issue requesting what you need 📩).
- Template error handling was improved.
- We also updated GoReleaser to Go 1.21.
And, as always, several bug fixes and documentation updates!
## Windows
GoReleaser was never properly/extensive tested on Windows.
It somewhat works, but there are many rough edges, and potentially some bugs
here and there.
To make Windows a first-class runtime for GoReleaser,
[I started trying to make CI pass on Windows](https://github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser/pull/4293).
It's a bit hard to evolve it as I don't really use Windows, and end up having
to juggle around VMs and/or CI.
If you use Windows regularly and want to contribute to OSS, ping me on our
[Discord][discord], I'm happy to help you in any way you need, especially if
you are a beginner in the field and/or Go.
## Blog
Our blog was migrated to a new address (and out of medium)!
You can read the announcement [here](./2023-09-14-welcome.md).
It still a work in progress, though.
You can also see the still-open issue
[here](https://github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser/issues/3503)
The old address will still be up indefinitely, but we won't be updating it any
longer.
## Other news
- GoReleaser now has ~12.1k stars and 352 contributors! Thanks, everyone!
