From 827b8b9fd5b23476cfe19f8e875607b683c5e335 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mahmoud Al-Qudsi Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2018 09:15:29 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Document removal of % expansion and new $self/$last_pid variables --- CHANGELOG.md | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 3bab1c405..02c03bb6e 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ This section is for changes merged to the `major` branch that are not also merge - For loop control variables are no longer local to the for block (#1935). - A literal `{}` now expands to itself, rather than nothing. This makes working with `find -exec` easier. (#1109, #4632) - Successive commas in brace expansions are handled in less surprising manner (`{,,,}` expands to four empty strings rather than an empty string, a comma and an empty string again). (#3002, #4632). +- `%` is no longer used for process and job expansion. `$pid` and `$last_pid` have taken the place of `%self` and `%last` respectively. (#4230, #1202) ## Notable fixes and improvements - `wait` builtin is added for waiting on processes (#4498).
