Within a match statement, it is now possible to add guards in each
branch:
var a = 0
match a:
0 when false: print("does not run")
0 when true: print("but this does")
This allows more complex logic for deciding which branch to take.
This applies our existing style guide, and adds a new rule to that style
guide for modular components such as platform ports and modules:
Includes from the platform port or module ("local" includes) should be listed
first in their own block using relative paths, before Godot's "core" includes
which use "absolute" (project folder relative) paths, and finally thirdparty
includes.
Includes in `#ifdef`s come after their relevant section, i.e. the overall
structure is:
- Local includes
* Conditional local includes
- Core includes
* Conditional core includes
- Thirdparty includes
* Conditional thirdparty includes
Which allows editable data associated with a particular class instead of
the instance. Scripts with static variables are kept in memory
indefinitely unless the `@static_unload` annotation is used or the
`static_unload()` method is called on the GDScript.
If the custom function `_static_init()` exists it will be called when
the class is loaded, after the static variables are set.
Removes documentation generation (docgen) from the GDScript compiler to
its own file. Adds support for GDScript enums and signal parameters and
quite a few other assorted fixes and improvements.
Add functions to CoreConstant so enums can be properly deduced. Also add
the enums in release builds to make consistent with ClassDB enums and
avoid differences in script compilation between debug and release.
- Adds a list of default levels for all warning so they can be set
individually.
- Add warnings set by default to error for:
- Using `get_node()` without `@onready`.
- Using `@onready` together with `@export`.
- Inferring a static type with a Variant value.
- Overriding a native engine method.
- Adjust how annotations to ignore warnings are treated so they also
apply to method parameters.
- Clean up a bit how ignored warnings are set. There were two sets but
only one was actually being used.
- Set all warnings to the `WARN` level for tests, so they they can be
properly tested.
- Fix enum types in native methods signatures being set to `int`.
- Fix native enums being treated as Dictionary by mistake.
- Make name of native enum types use the class they are defined in, not
the direct super class of the script. This ensures they are always
equal even when coming from different sources.
- Fix error for signature mismatch that was only showing the first
default argument as having a default. Now it shows for all.
- Consider PackedArrays non-shared since they are copied on C++/script
boundaries.
- Add error messages in the analyzer when assigning to read-only
properties.
- Add specific error message at runtime when assignment fails because
the property is read-only.
- Adds a list of default levels for all warning so they can be set
individually.

The keyword is confusing and rarely is used in the intended way. It is
removed now in favor of a future feature (pattern guards) to avoid
breaking compatibility later.
This is using an adapted version of UAX#31 to not rely on the ICU
database (which isn't available in builds without TextServerAdvanced).
It allows most characters used in diverse scripts but not everything.
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
