See #562 for a list of upcoming changes.

  • Use self-contained binaries by default when installing. Existing environment variables can be used to override this behavior.
  • Versioned install scripts for each release version. New installs will use a helper fetch script to get the correct install script version for full backwards compatability.
  • Remove end of support .NET Core 3.1 and .NET Framework 4.6.1
  • Add some SHA256 validation to downloads

.NET 6 is out of support since November 12, 2024 so it makes sense to drop it in a new major here

It's on our radar to deprecate .NET 6 as well, however we've previously announced in #523 and #562 that 2.0.0 would remove 3.1 and 4.6.1, and for a breaking change such as this when users are automatically opted into the new version we would want to give as much advance notice as possible for this. With the move to self-contained binaries by default, specific .NET versions will become less important and can be removed more easily.
