Cibuildwheel

_16 September 2024_

- 🐛 Fix a bug in the Linux build, where files copied to the container would have invalid ownership permissions (2007)
- 🐛 Fix a bug on Windows where cibuildwheel would call upon `uv` to install dependencies for versions of CPython that it does not support (2005)
- 🐛 Fix a bug where `uv 0.4.10` would not use the right Python when testing on Linux. (2008)
- 🛠 Bump our documentation pins, fixes an issue with a missing package (2011)

_13 September 2024_

- ⚠️ Update CPython 3.12 to 3.12.6, which changes the macOS minimum deployment target on CPython 3.12 from macOS 10.9 to macOS 10.13 (1998)
- 🛠 Changes the behaviour when inheriting `config-settings` in TOML overrides - rather than extending each key, which is rarely useful, individual keys will override previously set values. (1803)
- 🛠 Update CPython 3.13 to 3.13.0rc2 (1998)
- ✨ Adds support for multiarch OCI images (1961)
- 🐛 Fixes some bugs building Linux wheels on macOS. (1961)
- ⚠️ Changes the minimum version of Docker/Podman to Docker API version 1.43, Podman API version 3. The only mainstream runner this should affect is Travis Graviton2 runners - if so you can [upgrade your version of Docker](https://github.com/pypa/cibuildwheel/pull/1961#issuecomment-2304060019). (1961)

_4 August 2024_

- 🌟 CPython 3.13 wheels are now built by default - without the `CIBW_PRERELEASE_PYTHONS` flag. It's time to build and upload these wheels to PyPI! This release includes CPython 3.13.0rc1, which is guaranteed to be ABI compatible with the final release. Free-threading is still behind a flag/config option. (1950)
- ✨ Provide a `CIBW_ALLOW_EMPTY` environment variable as an alternative to the command line flag. (1937)
- 🐛 Don't use uv on PyPy3.8 on Windows, it stopped working starting in 0.2.25. Note that PyPy 3.8 is EoL. (1868)
- 🛠 Set the `VSCMD_ARG_TGT_ARCH` variable based on target arch. (1876)
- 🛠 Undo cleaner output on pytest 8-8.2 now that 8.3 is out. (1943)
- 📚 Update examples to use Python 3.12 on host (cibuildwheel will require Python 3.11+ on the host machine starting in October 2024) (1919)

_2 July 2024_

- 🐛 Update manylinux2014 pins to versions that support past-EoL CentOS 7 mirrors. (1917)
- 🐛 Support `--no-isolation` with `build[uv]` build-frontend. (1889)
- 🛠 Provide attestations for releases at <https://github.com/pypa/cibuildwheel/attestations>. (#1916)
- 🛠 Provide CPython 3.13.0b3. (1913)
- 🛠 Remove some workarounds now that pip 21.1 is available. (1891, 1892)
- 📚 Remove nosetest from our docs. (1821)
- 📚 Document the macOS ARM workaround for 3.8 on GHA. (1871)
- 📚 GitLab CI + macOS is now a supported platform with an example. (1911)

_13 June 2024_

- 🐛 Don't require setup-python on GHA for Pyodide (1868)
- 🐛 Specify full python path for uv (fixes issue in 0.2.10 & 0.2.11) (1881)
- 🛠 Update for pip 24.1b2 on CPython 3.13. (1879)
- 🛠 Fix a warning in our schema generation script. (1866)
- 🛠 Cleaner output on pytest 8-8.2. (1865)

_10 June 2024_

See the [release post](https://iscinumpy.dev/post/cibuildwheel-2-19-0/) for more info on new features!

- 🌟 Add Pyodide platform. Set with `--platform pyodide` or `CIBW_PLATFORM: pyodide` on Linux with a host Python 3.12 to build WebAssembly wheels. Not accepted on PyPI currently, but usable directly in a website using Pyodide, for live docs, etc. (1456, 1859)
- 🌟 Add `build[uv]` backend, which will take a pre-existing uv install (or install `cibuildwheel[uv]`) and use `uv` for all environment setup and installs on Python 3.8+. This is significantly faster in most cases. (1856)
- ✨ Add free-threaded macOS builds and update CPython to 3.13.0b2. (1854)
- 🐛 Issue copying a wheel to a non-existent output dir fixed. (1851, 1862)
- 🐛 Better determinism for the test environment seeding. (1835)
- 🛠 `VIRTUAL_ENV` variable now set. (1842)
- 🛠 Remove a pip<21.3 workaround. (1842)
- 🛠 Error handling was refactored to use exceptions. (1719)
- 🛠 Hardcoded paths in tests avoided. (1834)
- 🛠 Single Python tests made more generic. (1835)
- 🛠 Sped up our ci by splitting up emulation tests. (1839)
