It was deprecated because it's a bad idea to not lock versions. Using `~master` would fetch the latest code from the "master" branch when compiling. You never know which version you get. You don't get reproducible builds.

I personally think it's not so bad as long as the commit gets written to the dub.selections.json

This revert of the __traits(allMembers) change for imports is not included in this release candidate.

https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/11739

It needs to be included before the release, so that the import changes can be deferred until the next major.

I know. But it should be.

But then again a lot of things “should be” with dub.

dub.selections.json wasn't available in the initial version. I don't remember if branches were deprecated before or after dub.selections.json was added.

We are currently evaluating if we should use D in our company in parts of our next service (I make the decision) and seeing evidence that D is alive and well is a big plus!

I wish I could contribute, but I'm not at that level in D yet (I'm a C#/C guy)...

Thanks!

Possible spell fix in Changelog. Shouldn't

be
