Taskfile does not contain a schema version (#1342 by @pd93).
- Increased limit of maximum task calls from 100 to 1000 for now, as some people
have been reaching this limit organically now that we have loops. This check

@andarto, #1309 by @andreynering).
- Fix bug on `--status` flag. Running this flag should not have side-effects: it
should not update the checksum on `.task`, only report its status (#1305,
#1307 by @visciang, #1313 by @andreynering).
## v3.28.0 - 2023-07-24

- e.g. `taskfile.yml`, `taskfile.yaml`, `taskfile.dist.yml` &
`taskfile.dist.yaml`
- Bug fixes were made to the
[npm installation method](https://taskfile.dev/installation/#npm). (#1190, by

draft (#1200, #1216 by @pd93).
- Added an `--experiments` flag to allow you to see which experiments are
enabled (#1242 by @pd93).
- Added ability to specify which variables are required in a task (#1203, #1204
by @benc-uk).
## v3.26.0 - 2023-06-10

#1194 by @deviantintegral).
- Added [experiments documentation](https://taskfile.dev/experiments) to the
website (#1198 by @pd93).
- Deprecated `version: 2` schema. This will be removed in the next major release
(#1197, #1198, #1199 by @pd93).
- Added a new `prompt:` prop to set a warning prompt to be shown before running
a potential dangerous task (#100, #1163 by @MaxCheetham,
[Documentation](https://taskfile.dev/usage/#warning-prompts)).
- Added support for single command task syntax. With this change, it's now
possible to declare just `cmd:` in a task, avoiding the more complex
`cmds: []` when you have only a single command for that task (#1130, #1131 by
@timdp).
## v3.25.0 - 2023-05-22
- Support `silent:` when calling another tasks (#680, #1142 by @danquah).
- Improve PowerShell completion script (#1168 by @trim21).

## v3.23.0 - 2023-03-26

[official extension for Visual Studio Code](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=task.vscode-task)
contributed by @pd93! :tada: The extension is maintained in a
[new repository](https://github.com/go-task/vscode-task) under the `go-task`
organization. We're looking to gather feedback from the community so please give
it a go and let us know what you think via a
[discussion](https://github.com/go-task/vscode-task/discussions),
[issue](https://github.com/go-task/vscode-task/issues) or on our
[Discord](https://discord.gg/6TY36E39UK)!
> **NOTE:** The extension _requires_ v3.23.0 to be installed in order to work.
- The website was integrated with
[Crowdin](https://crowdin.com/project/taskfile) to allow the community to
contribute with translations! [Chinese](https://taskfile.dev/zh-Hans/) is the
first language available (#1057, #1058 by @misitebao).
- Added task location data to the `--json` flag output (#1056 by @pd93)

arguments (#1040, #1059 by @dhanusaputra).
- Fix the value of `{{.CHECKSUM}}` variable in status (#1076, #1080 by @pd93).

## v3.22.0 - 2023-03-10

`$HOME` directory. This is useful to have automation that you can run from
anywhere in your system!
([Documentation](https://taskfile.dev/usage/#running-a-global-taskfile), #1029
by @andreynering).
- Add ability to set `error_only: true` on the `group` output mode. This will
instruct Task to only print a command output if it returned with a non-zero
exit code (#664, #1022 by @jaedle).
- Fixed bug where `.task/checksum` file was sometimes not being created when
task also declares a `status:` (#840, #1035 by @harelwa, #1037 by @pd93).
- Refactored and decoupled fingerprinting from the main Task executor (#1039 by
@pd93).

@theunrepentantgeek).
## v3.21.0 - 2023-02-22

- Add ability to configure options for the
[`set`](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/The-Set-Builtin.html)
and
[`shopt`](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/html_node/The-Shopt-Builtin.html)
builtins (#908, #929 by @pd93,
[Documentation](http://taskfile.dev/usage/#set-and-shopt)).
- Add new `platforms:` attribute to `task` and `cmd`, so it's now possible to
choose in which platforms that given task or command will be run on. Possible
values are operating system (GOOS), architecture (GOARCH) or a combination of
the two. Example: `platforms: [linux]`, `platforms: [amd64]` or
`platforms: [linux/amd64]`. Other platforms will be skipped (#978, #980 by
@leaanthony).

- Add `npm` as new installation method: `npm i -g @go-task/cli` (#870, #871,
[npm package](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@go-task/cli)).

from `--list` and `--list-all` (#818).

- Fixed bug when using the `output: group` mode where STDOUT and STDERR were
being print in separated blocks instead of in the right order (#779).
- Starting on this release, ARM architecture binaries are been released to Snap
as well (#795).
- i386 binaries won't be available anymore on Snap because Ubuntu removed the
support for this architecture.
- Upgrade mvdan.cc/sh, which fixes a bug with associative arrays (#785,
[mvdan/sh#884](https://github.com/mvdan/sh/issues/884),

Taskfiles can also include other Taskfiles. Before this was limited to one
level (#390, #623, #656).
- Add ability to specify vars when including a Taskfile.
[Check out the documentation](https://taskfile.dev/#/usage?id=vars-of-included-taskfiles)
for more information (#677).
## v3.11.0 - 2022-02-19
- Task now supports printing begin and end messages when using the `group`
output mode, useful for grouping tasks in CI systems.

prefix (#642, #644, #645).

in the task directory when the task has a custom dir or it was in an included
Taskfile (#384).

should be more stable now (#423, #365).

artifacts when using `status:` (#216).
