    an Update button

  • Self-service Cc field now allows for autocompleting multiple users
  • When possible sort charts numerically rather than ascii-betically

    tickets in that queue
  • Support autocomplete custom fields in bulk update (I#15259)
  • Hint to the user that not all CF types are supported by bulk update,
    instead of silently excluding them (I#15259)
  • Improve compliance with RFC4480 for GPG armor lines (I#30372)

Database

  • "schema" upgrade files no longer issue CREATE INDEX statements, instead
    there are now "indexes" upgrade files that describe the end state of the
    indexes RT requires. This better handles indexes that may have been
    deployed by hand or otherwise already exist.
  • We now correctly shred ObjectCustomFields records when shredding a
    CustomField
  • Add $MaxFulltextAttachmentSize RT_Config option (default: 0 meaning
    no limit) for tuning how very large attachments are included in the
    full-text index

  • We now record transactions for changes to queues
  • Improve visual design of Shredder forms

    config options to use Unicode

    security

    referrer checking behavior
  • Clarify web config validation log messages (I#31117)
  • Add a no_ticket_transactions option to user shredder
  • Remove now-unnecessary dependency on Apache::DBI (I#31210)
  • Avoid DateTime::Locale versions 1.00 and 1.01
    https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=110244

    syntax for find -perm (I#31308)

    fulltext search
  • Also remind users that they should set up backups in the README
  • Fix UPGRADING-4.2's description of PostgreSQL full-text search using
    GiST; it uses GIN indexes (I#31844)

Internationalization

  • Adjust the string "CustomFields" to instead use the existing
    "Custom Fields" to ease translation
  • We now display translated ticket properties and statuses on graphs
  • Update translations for: Brazilian Portuguese, Czech, Finnish, French,
    German, Greek, Hungarian, Japanese, Latvian, Lithuanian, Occitan, Polish,
