--- Description ---
Revision history for Biber
2.21 (2025-07)
* **INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE** - the 'collate-options' option no longer
accepts a single string in perl hash notation as value. It now
requires
the option to be used once per collate option in a more standardised
format, due to a code injection vulnerability. For example, instead of
e.g:
--collate-options="level => 4, variable => 'non-ignorable'", the
format
is: --collate-options level=4 --collate-options
variable='non-ignorable'
* Support for 32-bit Windows has been discontinued.
* Improved Unicode support for Windows (thanks to John Collins)
* Misc bug fixes
