# Objective
- Sometimes, like when using shaders, you can only use a time value in `f32`. Unfortunately this suffers from floating precision issues pretty quickly. The standard approach to this problem is to wrap the time after a given period
- This is necessary for https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5409
## Solution
- Add a `seconds_since_last_wrapping_period` method on `Time` that returns a `f32` that is the `seconds_since_startup` modulo the `max_wrapping_period`
---
## Changelog
Added `seconds_since_last_wrapping_period` to `Time`
## Additional info
I'm very opened to hearing better names. I don't really like the current naming, I just went with something descriptive.

# Objective
Now that we can consolidate Bundles and Components under a single insert (thanks to #2975 and #6039), almost 100% of world spawns now look like `world.spawn().insert((Some, Tuple, Here))`. Spawning an entity without any components is an extremely uncommon pattern, so it makes sense to give spawn the "first class" ergonomic api. This consolidated api should be made consistent across all spawn apis (such as World and Commands).
## Solution
All `spawn` apis (`World::spawn`, `Commands:;spawn`, `ChildBuilder::spawn`, and `WorldChildBuilder::spawn`) now accept a bundle as input:
```rust
// before:
commands
.spawn()
.insert((A, B, C));
world
.spawn()
.insert((A, B, C);
// after
commands.spawn((A, B, C));
world.spawn((A, B, C));
```
All existing instances of `spawn_bundle` have been deprecated in favor of the new `spawn` api. A new `spawn_empty` has been added, replacing the old `spawn` api.
By allowing `world.spawn(some_bundle)` to replace `world.spawn().insert(some_bundle)`, this opened the door to removing the initial entity allocation in the "empty" archetype / table done in `spawn()` (and subsequent move to the actual archetype in `.insert(some_bundle)`).
This improves spawn performance by over 10%:
To take this measurement, I added a new `world_spawn` benchmark.
Unfortunately, optimizing `Commands::spawn` is slightly less trivial, as Commands expose the Entity id of spawned entities prior to actually spawning. Doing the optimization would (naively) require assurances that the `spawn(some_bundle)` command is applied before all other commands involving the entity (which would not necessarily be true, if memory serves). Optimizing `Commands::spawn` this way does feel possible, but it will require careful thought (and maybe some additional checks), which deserves its own PR. For now, it has the same performance characteristics of the current `Commands::spawn_bundle` on main.
**Note that 99% of this PR is simple renames and refactors. The only code that needs careful scrutiny is the new `World::spawn()` impl, which is relatively straightforward, but it has some new unsafe code (which re-uses battle tested BundlerSpawner code path).**
---
## Changelog
- All `spawn` apis (`World::spawn`, `Commands:;spawn`, `ChildBuilder::spawn`, and `WorldChildBuilder::spawn`) now accept a bundle as input
- All instances of `spawn_bundle` have been deprecated in favor of the new `spawn` api
- World and Commands now have `spawn_empty()`, which is equivalent to the old `spawn()` behavior.
## Migration Guide
```rust
// Old (0.8):
commands
.spawn()
.insert_bundle((A, B, C));
// New (0.9)
commands.spawn((A, B, C));
// Old (0.8):
commands.spawn_bundle((A, B, C));
// New (0.9)
commands.spawn((A, B, C));
// Old (0.8):
let entity = commands.spawn().id();
// New (0.9)
let entity = commands.spawn_empty().id();
// Old (0.8)
let entity = world.spawn().id();
// New (0.9)
let entity = world.spawn_empty();
```
# Objective
- Add unit tests for ambiguity detection reporting.
- Incremental implementation of #4299.
## Solution
- Refactor ambiguity detection internals to make it testable. As a bonus, this should make it easier to extend in the future.
## Notes
* This code was copy-pasted from #4299 and modified. Credit goes to @alice-i-cecile and @afonsolage, though I'm not sure who wrote what at this point.
## Objective
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6063
## Solution
- Use `then_some(x)` instead of `then( || x)`.
- Updated error logs from `bevy_ecs_compile_fail_tests`.
## Migration Guide
From Rust 1.63 to 1.64, a new Clippy error was added; now one should use `then_some(x)` instead of `then( || x)`.
# Objective
Both components already derives `Reflect` and it would be nice to have `FromReflect` in order to ser/de between those types without relaying on `downcast`, since it can fail between different platforms, like WebAssembly.
## Solution
Derive `FromReflect` for `Transform` and `GlobalTransform`.
I thought if I should also derive `FromReflect` for `GlobalTransform`, since it's a computed component, but there may be some use cases where a `GlobalTransform` is needed to be sent over the wire, so I decided to do it.
# Objective
- Reconfigure surface after present mode changes. It seems that this is not done currently at runtime. It's pretty common for games to change such graphical settings at runtime.
- Fixes present mode issue in #5111
## Solution
- Exactly like resolution change gets tracked when extracting window, do the same for present mode.
Additionally, I added present mode (vsync) toggling to window settings example.
# Objective
Take advantage of the "impl Bundle for Component" changes in #2975 / add the follow up changes discussed there.
## Solution
- Change `insert` and `remove` to accept a Bundle instead of a Component (for both Commands and World)
- Deprecate `insert_bundle`, `remove_bundle`, and `remove_bundle_intersection`
- Add `remove_intersection`
---
## Changelog
- Change `insert` and `remove` now accept a Bundle instead of a Component (for both Commands and World)
- `insert_bundle` and `remove_bundle` are deprecated
## Migration Guide
Replace `insert_bundle` with `insert`:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
commands.spawn().insert_bundle(SomeBundle::default());
// New (0.9)
commands.spawn().insert(SomeBundle::default());
```
Replace `remove_bundle` with `remove`:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
commands.entity(some_entity).remove_bundle::<SomeBundle>();
// New (0.9)
commands.entity(some_entity).remove::<SomeBundle>();
```
Replace `remove_bundle_intersection` with `remove_intersection`:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
world.entity_mut(some_entity).remove_bundle_intersection::<SomeBundle>();
// New (0.9)
world.entity_mut(some_entity).remove_intersection::<SomeBundle>();
```
Consider consolidating as many operations as possible to improve ergonomics and cut down on archetype moves:
```rust
// Old (0.8)
commands.spawn()
.insert_bundle(SomeBundle::default())
.insert(SomeComponent);
// New (0.9) - Option 1
commands.spawn().insert((
SomeBundle::default(),
SomeComponent,
))
// New (0.9) - Option 2
commands.spawn_bundle((
SomeBundle::default(),
SomeComponent,
))
```
## Next Steps
Consider changing `spawn` to accept a bundle and deprecate `spawn_bundle`.
# Objective
The doc comments for `Command` methods are a bit inconsistent on the format, they sometimes go out of scope, and most importantly they are wrong, in the sense that they claim to perform the action described by the command, while in reality, they just push a command to perform the action.
- Follow-up of #5938.
- Related to #5913.
## Solution
- Where applicable, only stated that a `Command` is pushed.
- Added a “See also” section for similar methods.
- Added a missing “Panics” section for `Commands::entity`.
- Removed a wrong comment about `Commands::get_or_spawn` returning `None` (It does not return an option).
- Removed polluting descriptions of other items.
- Misc formatting changes.
## Future possibilities
Since the `Command` implementors (`Spawn`, `InsertBundle`, `InitResource`, ...) are public, I thought that it might be appropriate to describe the action of the command there instead of the method, and to add a `method → command struct` link to fill the gap.
If that seems too far-fetched, we may opt to make them private, if possible, or `#[doc(hidden)]`.
# Objective
Working on issue #1934 , with linking examples to the documentation. PR for transform examples.
## Solution
Added to the documentation in bevy_transform transform.rs and global_transform.rs utilizing links from examples.
[X] 3d_rotations.rs linked to rotate in Transform
[X] global_vs_local_translation.rs linked to top of Transform and GlobalTransform documentation
[X] scale.rs linked to scale Struct in Transform
[X] transform.rs linked to top of Transform documentation
[X] translation.rs linked to from_translation in Transform

@BoxyUwU this is your fault.
Also cart didn't arrive in time to tell us not to do this.
# Objective
- Fix#2974
## Solution
- The first commit just does the actual change
- Follow up commits do steps to prove that this method works to unify as required, but this does not remove `insert_bundle`.
## Changelog
### Changed
Nested bundles now collapse automatically, and every `Component` now implements `Bundle`.
This means that you can combine bundles and components arbitrarily, for example:
```rust
// before:
.insert(A).insert_bundle(MyBBundle{..})
// after:
.insert_bundle((A, MyBBundle {..}))
```
Note that there will be a follow up PR that removes the current `insert` impl and renames `insert_bundle` to `insert`.
### Removed
The `bundle` attribute in `derive(Bundle)`.
## Migration guide
In `derive(Bundle)`, the `bundle` attribute has been removed. Nested bundles are not collapsed automatically. You should remove `#[bundle]` attributes.

> Note: This is rebased off #4561 and can be viewed as a competitor to that PR. See `Comparison with #4561` section for details.
# Objective
The current serialization format used by `bevy_reflect` is both verbose and error-prone. Taking the following structs[^1] for example:
```rust
// -- src/inventory.rs
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Inventory {
id: String,
max_storage: usize,
items: Vec<Item>
}
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct Item {
name: String
}
```
Given an inventory of a single item, this would serialize to something like:
```rust
// -- assets/inventory.ron
{
"type": "my_game::inventory::Inventory",
"struct": {
"id": {
"type": "alloc::string::String",
"value": "inv001",
},
"max_storage": {
"type": "usize",
"value": 10
},
"items": {
"type": "alloc::vec::Vec<alloc::string::String>",
"list": [
{
"type": "my_game::inventory::Item",
"struct": {
"name": {
"type": "alloc::string::String",
"value": "Pickaxe"
},
},
},
],
},
},
}
```
Aside from being really long and difficult to read, it also has a few "gotchas" that users need to be aware of if they want to edit the file manually. A major one is the requirement that you use the proper keys for a given type. For structs, you need `"struct"`. For lists, `"list"`. For tuple structs, `"tuple_struct"`. And so on.
It also ***requires*** that the `"type"` entry come before the actual data. Despite being a map— which in programming is almost always orderless by default— the entries need to be in a particular order. Failure to follow the ordering convention results in a failure to deserialize the data.
This makes it very prone to errors and annoyances.
## Solution
Using #4042, we can remove a lot of the boilerplate and metadata needed by this older system. Since we now have static access to type information, we can simplify our serialized data to look like:
```rust
// -- assets/inventory.ron
{
"my_game::inventory::Inventory": (
id: "inv001",
max_storage: 10,
items: [
(
name: "Pickaxe"
),
],
),
}
```
This is much more digestible and a lot less error-prone (no more key requirements and no more extra type names).
Additionally, it is a lot more familiar to users as it follows conventional serde mechanics. For example, the struct is represented with `(...)` when serialized to RON.
#### Custom Serialization
Additionally, this PR adds the opt-in ability to specify a custom serde implementation to be used rather than the one created via reflection. For example[^1]:
```rust
// -- src/inventory.rs
#[derive(Reflect, Serialize)]
#[reflect(Serialize)]
struct Item {
#[serde(alias = "id")]
name: String
}
```
```rust
// -- assets/inventory.ron
{
"my_game::inventory::Inventory": (
id: "inv001",
max_storage: 10,
items: [
(
id: "Pickaxe"
),
],
),
},
```
By allowing users to define their own serialization methods, we do two things:
1. We give more control over how data is serialized/deserialized to the end user
2. We avoid having to re-define serde's attributes and forcing users to apply both (e.g. we don't need a `#[reflect(alias)]` attribute).
### Improved Formats
One of the improvements this PR provides is the ability to represent data in ways that are more conventional and/or familiar to users. Many users are familiar with RON so here are some of the ways we can now represent data in RON:
###### Structs
```js
{
"my_crate::Foo": (
bar: 123
)
}
// OR
{
"my_crate::Foo": Foo(
bar: 123
)
}
```
<details>
<summary>Old Format</summary>
```js
{
"type": "my_crate::Foo",
"struct": {
"bar": {
"type": "usize",
"value": 123
}
}
}
```
</details>
###### Tuples
```js
{
"(f32, f32)": (1.0, 2.0)
}
```
<details>
<summary>Old Format</summary>
```js
{
"type": "(f32, f32)",
"tuple": [
{
"type": "f32",
"value": 1.0
},
{
"type": "f32",
"value": 2.0
}
]
}
```
</details>
###### Tuple Structs
```js
{
"my_crate::Bar": ("Hello World!")
}
// OR
{
"my_crate::Bar": Bar("Hello World!")
}
```
<details>
<summary>Old Format</summary>
```js
{
"type": "my_crate::Bar",
"tuple_struct": [
{
"type": "alloc::string::String",
"value": "Hello World!"
}
]
}
```
</details>
###### Arrays
It may be a bit surprising to some, but arrays now also use the tuple format. This is because they essentially _are_ tuples (a sequence of values with a fixed size), but only allow for homogenous types. Additionally, this is how RON handles them and is probably a result of the 32-capacity limit imposed on them (both by [serde](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Serialize.html#impl-Serialize-for-%5BT%3B%2032%5D) and by [bevy_reflect](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/reflect/trait.GetTypeRegistration.html#impl-GetTypeRegistration-for-%5BT%3B%2032%5D)).
```js
{
"[i32; 3]": (1, 2, 3)
}
```
<details>
<summary>Old Format</summary>
```js
{
"type": "[i32; 3]",
"array": [
{
"type": "i32",
"value": 1
},
{
"type": "i32",
"value": 2
},
{
"type": "i32",
"value": 3
}
]
}
```
</details>
###### Enums
To make things simple, I'll just put a struct variant here, but the style applies to all variant types:
```js
{
"my_crate::ItemType": Consumable(
name: "Healing potion"
)
}
```
<details>
<summary>Old Format</summary>
```js
{
"type": "my_crate::ItemType",
"enum": {
"variant": "Consumable",
"struct": {
"name": {
"type": "alloc::string::String",
"value": "Healing potion"
}
}
}
}
```
</details>
### Comparison with #4561
This PR is a rebased version of #4561. The reason for the split between the two is because this PR creates a _very_ different scene format. You may notice that the PR descriptions for either PR are pretty similar. This was done to better convey the changes depending on which (if any) gets merged first. If #4561 makes it in first, I will update this PR description accordingly.
---
## Changelog
* Re-worked serialization/deserialization for reflected types
* Added `TypedReflectDeserializer` for deserializing data with known `TypeInfo`
* Renamed `ReflectDeserializer` to `UntypedReflectDeserializer`
* ~~Replaced usages of `deserialize_any` with `deserialize_map` for non-self-describing formats~~ Reverted this change since there are still some issues that need to be sorted out (in a separate PR). By reverting this, crates like `bincode` can throw an error when attempting to deserialize non-self-describing formats (`bincode` results in `DeserializeAnyNotSupported`)
* Structs, tuples, tuple structs, arrays, and enums are now all de/serialized using conventional serde methods
## Migration Guide
* This PR reduces the verbosity of the scene format. Scenes will need to be updated accordingly:
```js
// Old format
{
"type": "my_game::item::Item",
"struct": {
"id": {
"type": "alloc::string::String",
"value": "bevycraft:stone",
},
"tags": {
"type": "alloc::vec::Vec<alloc::string::String>",
"list": [
{
"type": "alloc::string::String",
"value": "material"
},
],
},
}
// New format
{
"my_game::item::Item": (
id: "bevycraft:stone",
tags: ["material"]
)
}
```
[^1]: Some derives omitted for brevity.
# Objective
Add traits to events in `bevy_input` and `bevy_windows`: `Copy`, `Serialize`/`Deserialize`, `PartialEq`, and `Eq`, as requested in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6022, https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6023, https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6024.
## Solution
Added the traits to events in `bevy_input` and `bevy_windows`. Added dependency of `serde` in `Cargo.toml` of `bevy_input`.
## Migration Guide
If one has been `.clone()`'ing `bevy_input` events, Clippy will now complain about that. Just remove `.clone()` to solve.
## Other Notes
Some events in `bevy_input` had `f32` fields, so `Eq` trait was not derived for them.
Some events in `bevy_windows` had `String` fields, so `Copy` trait was not derived for them.

## Changelog
* Remove `AssetServer::watch_for_changes()`
* Add `AssetServerSettings` to the prelude.
* Minor cleanup.
## Migration Guide
`AssetServer::watch_for_changes()` was removed.
Instead, use the `AssetServerSettings` resource.

# Objective
When trying derive `Debug` for type that has `DynamicEnum` it wasn't possible, since neither of `DynamicEnum`, `DynamicTuple`, `DynamicVariant` or `DynamicArray` implements `Debug`.
## Solution
Implement Debug for those types, using `derive` macro
---
## Changelog
- `DynamicEnum`, `DynamicTuple`, `DynamicVariant` and `DynamicArray` now implements `Debug`
# Objective
Fixes#5636
Summary: The FontAtlasSet caches generated font textures per font size. Since font size can be any arbitrary floating point number it is possible for the user to generate thousands of font texture inadvertently by changing the font size over time. This results in a memory leak as these generated font textures fill the available memory.
## Solution
We limit the number of possible font sizes that we will cache and throw an error if the user attempts to generate more. This error encourages the user to use alternative, less performance intensive methods to accomplish the same goal. If the user requires more font sizes and the alternative solutions wont work there is now a TextSettings Resource that the user can set to configure this limit.
---
## Changelog
The number of cached font sizes per font is now limited with a default limit of 100 font sizes per font. This limit is configurable via the new TextSettings struct.
# Objective
A common pitfall since 0.8 is the requirement on `ComputedVisibility`
being present on all ancestors of an entity that itself has
`ComputedVisibility`, without which, the entity becomes invisible.
I myself hit the issue and got very confused, and saw a few people hit
it as well, so it makes sense to provide a hint of what to do when such
a situation is encountered.
- Fixes#5849
- Closes#5616
- Closes#2277
- Closes#5081
## Solution
We now check that all entities with both a `Parent` and a
`ComputedVisibility` component have parents that themselves have a
`ComputedVisibility` component.
Note that the warning is only printed once.
We also add a similar warning to `GlobalTransform`.
This only emits a warning. Because sometimes it could be an intended
behavior.
Alternatives:
- Do nothing and keep repeating to newcomers how to avoid recurring
pitfalls
- Make the transform and visibility propagation tolerant to missing
components (#5616)
- Probably archetype invariants, though the current draft would not
allow detecting that kind of errors

# Objective
- To address problems outlined in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/5245
## Solution
- Introduce `reflect(skip_serializing)` on top of `reflect(ignore)` which disables automatic serialisation to scenes, but does not disable reflection of the field.
---
## Changelog
- Adds:
- `bevy_reflect::serde::type_data` module
- `SerializationData` structure for describing which fields are to be/not to be ignored, automatically registers as type_data for struct-based types
- the `skip_serialization` flag for `#[reflect(...)]`
- Removes:
- ability to ignore Enum variants in serialization, since that didn't work anyway
## Migration Guide
- Change `#[reflect(ignore)]` to `#[reflect(skip_serializing)]` where disabling reflection is not the intended effect.
- Remove ignore/skip attributes from enum variants as these won't do anything anymore
# Objective
As of Rust 1.59, `std:🧵:available_parallelism` has been stabilized. As of Rust 1.61, the API matches `num_cpus::get` by properly handling Linux's cgroups and other sandboxing mechanisms.
As bevy does not have an established MSRV, we can replace `num_cpus` in `bevy_tasks` and reduce our dependency tree by one dep.
## Solution
Replace `num_cpus` with `std:🧵:available_parallelism`. Wrap it to have a fallback in the case it errors out and have it operate in the same manner as `num_cpus` did.
This however removes `physical_core_count` from the API, though we are currently not using it in any way in first-party crates.
---
## Changelog
Changed: `bevy_tasks::logical_core_count` -> `bevy_tasks::available_parallelism`.
Removed: `bevy_tasks::physical_core_count`.
## Migration Guide
`bevy_tasks::logical_core_count` and `bevy_tasks::physical_core_count` have been removed. `logical_core_count` has been replaced with `bevy_tasks::available_parallelism`, which works identically. If `bevy_tasks::physical_core_count` is required, the `num_cpus` crate can be used directly, as these two were just aliases for `num_cpus` APIs.
# Objective
Fixes Issue #6005.
## Solution
Replaced WorldQuery with ReadOnlyWorldQuery on F generic in Query filters and QueryState to restrict its trait bound.
## Migration Guide
Query filter (`F`) generics are now bound by `ReadOnlyWorldQuery`, rather than `WorldQuery`. If for some reason you were requesting `Query<&A, &mut B>`, please use `Query<&A, With<B>>` instead.
Very small change that improves the usability of `Sprite`.
Before this PR, the only way to render a portion of an `Image` was to create a `TextureAtlas` and use `TextureAtlasSprite`/`SpriteSheetBundle`. This can be very annoying for one-off use cases, like if you just want to remove a border from an image, or something. Using `Sprite`/`SpriteBundle` always meant that the entire full image would be rendered.
This PR adds an optional `rect` field to `Sprite`, allowing a sub-rectangle of the image to be rendered. This is similar to how texture atlases work, but does not require creating a texture atlas asset, making it much more convenient and efficient for quick one-off use cases.
Given how trivial this change is, it really felt like missing functionality in Bevy's sprites API. ;)
## Changelog
Added:
- `rect` field on `Sprite`: allows rendering a portion of the sprite's image; more convenient for one-off use cases, than creating a texture atlas.
# Objective
fixes#5946
## Solution
adjust cluster index calculation for viewport origin.
from reading point 2 of the rasterization algorithm description in https://gpuweb.github.io/gpuweb/#rasterization, it looks like framebuffer space (and so @bulitin(position)) is not meant to be adjusted for viewport origin, so we need to subtract that to get the right cluster index.
- add viewport origin to rust `ExtractedView` and wgsl `View` structs
- subtract from frag coord for cluster index calculation
# Objective
Currently some TextureFormats are not supported by the Image type.
The `TextureFormat::Rg16Unorm` format is useful for storing minmax heightmaps.
Similar to #5249 I now additionally require image to support the dual channel variant.
## Solution
Added `TextureFormat::Rg16Unorm` support to Image.
Additionally this PR derives `Resource` for `SpecializedComputePipelines`, because for some reason this was missing.
All other special pipelines do derive `Resource` already.

While coding in bevy I needed to get the elapsed time of a stopwatch as f64.

### Fixed
- The Stopwatch elapsed function had a wrong docs link
# Objective
While using the ParallelExecutor, systems do not actually start until `prepare_systems` completes. In stages where there are large numbers of "empty" systems with very little work to do, this delay adds significant overhead, which can add up over many stages.
## Solution
Immediately and synchronously signal the start of systems that can run without dependencies inside `prepare_systems` instead of waiting for the first executor iteration after `prepare_systems` completes. Any system that is dependent on them still cannot run until after `prepare_systems` completes, but there are a large number of unconstrained systems in the base engine where this is a general benefit in almost every case.
## Performance
This change was tested against `many_foxes` in the default configuration. As this change is sensitive to the overhead around scheduling systems, the spans for measuring system timing, system overhead, and system commands were all commented out for these measurements.

For the first few stages, the benefit is small but cumulative over each. For PostUpdate in particular, this allows `parent_update` to run while prepare_systems is running, which is required for the animation and transform propagation systems, which dominate the time spent in the stage, but also frontloads the contention as the other "empty" systems are also running while `parent_update` is running. For Render, where there is just a single large exclusive system, the benefit comes from not waiting on a spuriously scheduled task on the task pool to kick off the system: it's immediately scheduled to run.
# Objective
Fixes#5390. Makes https://dev-docs.bevyengine.org/ a bit more discoverable.
## Solution
Mention the option as an alternative option to building the docs yourself in CONTRIBUTING.md.
# Objective
EntityMut::world takes &mut self instead of &self I don't see any reason for this.
EntityRef is overly restrictive with fn world and could return &'w World
---
## Changelog
- EntityRef now implements Copy and Clone
- EntityRef::world is now fn(&self) -> &'w World instead of fn(&mut self) -> &World
- EntityMut::world is now fn(&self) -> &World instead of fn(&mut self) -> &World
# Objective
Currently, `Local` has a `Sync` bound. Theoretically this is unnecessary as a local can only ever be accessed from its own system, ensuring exclusive access on one thread. This PR removes this restriction.
## Solution
- By removing the `Resource` bound from `Local` and adding the new `SyncCell` threading primative, `Local` can have the `Sync` bound removed.
## Changelog
### Added
- Added `SyncCell` to `bevy_utils`
### Changed
- Removed `Resource` bound from `Local`
- `Local` is now wrapped in a `SyncCell`
## Migration Guide
- Any code relying on `Local<T>` having `T: Resource` may have to be changed, but this is unlikely.

While looking into `collide()`, I wrote some tests to confirm the behavior I read in the code. This PR adds those tests and improves the documentation.

# Objective
- Make people stop believing that commands are applied immediately (hopefully).
- Close#5913.
- Alternative to #5930.
## Solution
I added the clause “to perform impactful changes to the `World`” to the first line to subliminally help the reader accept the fact that some operations cannot be performed immediately without messing up everything.
Then I explicitely said that applying a command requires exclusive `World` access, and finally I proceeded to show when these commands are automatically applied.
I also added a brief paragraph about how commands can be applied manually, if they want.
---
### Further possibilities
If you agree, we can also change the text of the method documentation (in a separate PR) to stress about enqueueing an action instead of just performing it. For example, in `Commands::spawn`:
> Creates a new `Entity`
would be changed to something like:
> Issues a `Command` to spawn a new `Entity`
This may even have a greater effect, since when typing in an IDE, the docs of the method pop up and the programmer can read them on the fly.

- The "scene" example in the examples folder has a TODO comment about writing the serialized data to a file. This PR implements that.
## Solution
The `AssetIo` trait in the `AssetServer` only supports reading data, not writing it. So, I used `std::io::File` for the implementation. This way, every time you run the example, it will mutate the file in-place.
I had thought about adding a UUID string to the example Component, so that every time you run the example, the file will be guaranteed to change (currently, it just writes the same numbers over and over). However, I didn't bother because it was beyond the scope of the TODO comment.
One thing to note is that the logic for serializing the scene into RON data has changed since the existing RON file was created, and so even though the data is the same, it's rendered in a different order for whatever reason.
I left the changed output to the example file, because it's presumably trivial. I can remove it and force-push if you don't want that included in here.
# Objective
Without this we can inappropriately merge batches together without properly accounting for non-batch items between them, and the merged batch will then be sorted incorrectly later.
This change seems to reliably fix the issue I was seeing in #5919.
## Solution
Ensure the `batch_phase_system` runs after the `sort_phase_system`, so that batching can only look at actually adjacent phase items.
# Objective
I wanted to run the code
```rust
let reflect_resource: ReflectResource = ...;
let value: Mut<dyn Reflect> = reflect_resource.reflect(world);
value.deref();
// ^ ERROR: deref method doesn't exist because `dyn Reflect` doesnt satisfy `: Sized`.
```
## Solution
Relax `Sized` bounds in all the methods and trait implementations for `Mut` and friends.
# Objective
This code is very disjoint, and the `stage.rs` file that it's in is already very long.
All I've done is move the code and clean up the compiler errors that result.
Followup to #5916, split out from #4299.
# Objective
Ambiguity sets are used to ignore system order ambiguities between groups of systems. However, they are not very useful: they are clunky, poorly integrated, and generally hampered by the difficulty using (or discovering) the ambiguity detector.
As a first step to the work in #4299, we're removing them.
## Migration Guide
Ambiguity sets have been removed.
# Objective
- Our existing change detection API is not flexible enough for advanced users: particularly those attempting to do rollback networking.
- This is an important use case, and with adequate warnings we can make mucking about with change ticks scary enough that users generally won't do it.
- Fixes#5633.
- Closes#2363.
## Changelog
- added `ChangeDetection::set_last_changed` to manually mutate the `last_change_ticks` field"
- the `ChangeDetection` trait now requires an `Inner` associated type, which contains the value being wrapped.
- added `ChangeDetection::bypass_change_detection`, which hands out a raw `&mut Inner`
## Migration Guide
Add the `Inner` associated type and new methods to any type that you've implemented `DetectChanges` for.
# Objective
- I'm currently working on being able to call methods on reflect types (https://github.com/jakobhellermann/bevy_reflect_fns)
- for that, I'd like to add methods to the `Input<KeyCode>` resource (which I'm doing by registering type data)
- implementing `Reflect` is currently a requirement for having type data in the `TypeRegistry`
## Solution
- derive `Reflect` for `KeyCode` and `Input`
- uses `#[reflect_value]` for `Input`, since it's fields aren't supposed to be observable
- using reflect_value would need `Clone` bounds on `T`, but since all the methods (`.pressed` etc) already require `T: Copy`, I unified everything to requiring `Copy`
- add `Send + Sync + 'static` bounds, also required by reflect derive
## Unrelated improvements
I can extract into a separate PR if needed.
- the `Reflect` derive would previously ignore `#[reflect_value]` and only accept `#[reflect_value()]` which was a bit confusing
- the generated code used `val.clone()` on a reference, which is fine if `val` impls `Clone`, but otherwise also compiles with a worse error message. Change to `std::clone::Clone::clone(val)` instead which gives a neat `T does not implement Clone` error
