5.0.0

------

- Hard links and symbolic links are now expanded in configuration paths.

API
~~~

- Access tokens can now be sourced by third-party resolvers using the
``instawow.resolvers.AccessToken`` decorator.
- ``_resolve_one`` has once again been renamed to ``resolve_one`` on the
``instawow.resolvers.Resolver`` interface.
- The active configuration is no longer stored on ``Resolver`` instances;
it must be retrieved from ``instawow.config_ctx.config`` on demand.
- The active configuration is no longer stored in the ``click`` context object;
it must be retrieved from ``instawow.config_ctx.config`` on demand.
- The ``instawow.progress_reporting`` module has been made public and can be used
by plug-ins.

GUI
~~~

- Linux ARM builds are now available.

4.8.0

------

- Work around WoWI TLS sniffing causing download errors.
- Drop $TMPDIR in preference of the XDG cache dir.

CLI
~~~

- Add new ``cache clear`` command.

4.7.0

------

- Add env var to override the CurseForge API URL.
- Read access tokens from separate configuration file if present.
- Add workaround for version pinning for CurseForge
in the pathological case (where version contains an underscore).
- Suppressed intermittent range error from GitHub.
- Extract game version from WoW installation for WA updater.
The ``WeakAurasCompanion`` add-on's game version will always be up to date.

CLI

- Allow uninstalling add-ons from unknown sources.
This can happen if e.g. the source's resolver was unregistered.
- Add ``configure`` command to WA updater for storing the Wago access token.
Access token migrated from top-level configuration.

4.6.0

------

- Distinguish between Curse add-on versions with the same display name.
This will trigger dummy updates for up-to-date add-ons, but the release
of the prepatch is as good a time as any to have that happen.

4.5.0

------

- Added pre-release fallback when a GitHub, CurseForge or Wago add-on
has no stable releases.
- Improved error message when an access token is mandatory and not set.
- Stopped bundling the GUI as part of the *instawow* distribution.
