Changelog

Unreleased

  • Tasks in the root Taskfile will now be displayed first in --list/--list-all output (#806, #890).

  • Added ability to set a different watch interval by setting interval: '500ms' or using the --interval=500ms flag (#813, #865).
  • Add colored output to --list, --list-all and --summary flags (#845, #874).

v3.16.0 - 2022-09-29

  • Add npm as new installation method: npm i -g @go-task/cli (#870, #871, npm package).

  • Fix error when using variable in env: introduced in the previous release (#858, #866).
  • Fix handling of CLI_ARGS (--) in Bash completion (#863).

v3.14.1 - 2022-08-03

  • Always resolve relative include paths relative to the including Taskfile (#822, #823).

v3.13.0 - 2022-06-13

  • Added -n as an alias to --dry (#776, #777).

v3.12.1 - 2022-05-10
