Overview of changes in GLib 2.71.1
==================================

* Basic support for static builds on Windows (work by Loïc Le Page,
  Marc-André Lureau, with contributions from Xavier Claessens, Nirbheek Chauhan,
  Charlie Barto, Luca Bacci, Amos Wenger) (#692, #2585, !2442)

* Add `GDebugController` and a D-Bus implementation which exposes whether
  debug output is enabled in a process using the `org.gtk.Debugging` D-Bus
  interface (work by Philip Withnall) (#1190)

* Support for `AF_UNIX` sockets on Windows 10 (and later) (work by Marc-André Lureau) (#2487)

* Several important fixes to GDBus message and GVariant parsing of invalid data (work by Sebastian Wilhelmi) (#2557, #2572)

* Fix potential data loss due to missing fsync when saving files on btrfs (work by Sebastian Keller) (!2425)

* Fix potential buffer overflows in `garray.c` for very large `GArray`s and `GPtrArray`s (work by Tobias Stoeckmann) (#2578)

* Fix FDs in gspawn not being closed and causing process hangs if `close_range()` fails unexpectedly (work by Dan Nicholson) (#2580)

* Fix `g_find_program_in_path()` not returning an absolute path if `$PATH` is relative (work by Christoph Niethammer) (#2586)

* Add support for loading PKCS#12 encrypted files in `GTlsCertificate` (work by Patrick Griffis) (!2239)

* A number of improvements to unit tests (work by Emmanuel Fleury, Charlie Barto) (!2399, !2400, !2402, !2403, !2428, !2431, !2432, !2434)

* Support `LOCAL_PEERPID` on macOS, giving partial support for PIDs in
  `GCredentials` on that platform (work by Ignacio Casal Quinteiro) (!2362)

* Add `g_get_user_state_dir()` to support `XDG_STATE_HOME` (work by Sophie Herold) (!2395)

* Add `g_hash_table_new_similar()` to copy a hash table and its hash/equal functions without its data (work by Jonas Ådahl) (!2405)

* Support D-Bus client authentication with `EXTERNAL` on Windows (work by Marc-André Lureau) (!2429)

* Add a reStructuredText documentation generator to `gdbus-codegen` (work by Emmanuele Bassi) (!2448)

* Add a Windows implementation of `GMemoryMonitor` (work by Marc-André Lureau) (!2452)
