-------------------
Bug Fixes
^^^^^^^^^
* Fixed an issue with the `pytest` fixtures that was needlessly calling ``load_esgf_test_data`` multiple times while tests were running (278).
* Corrected a temporary workaround for updating split geometries that was causing issues with modern `pandas` versions (278).
Other Changes
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
* Removed some obsolete tests and adjusted pytest to always report in colour (272).
* Split conda CI builds to explicitly test against xarray/stable and xarray/dev (272).
* GitHub CI now reports coverage statistics to Coveralls.io (276).
* Updated `geopandas` (>=0.11), `pyproj` (>=3.3.0), `shapely` (>=1.9), `tox` (>=4.0), `xarray` (>=0.21), and `xesmf` (>=0.6.3) to use more modern versions (278).
