Version history:
------- -------
+4.7 - 7 March 2021
+The seventh release of the 4.x stable series.
+Between 4.5 and 4.6, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
+
+ Bug 648335 - Display Created Transactions setting
+ Add a preference for the 'Review Created Transactions' setting in
+ the 'Sinse Last Run' dialog so that the default can be specified.
+ Bug 743753 - Nearest in time security price selection is incorrect in
+ reports
+ Add new price source - 'nearest before report date' will ignore
+ prices *after* report date.
+ Bug 743999 - Deleting a digit from an existing number greater than four
+ digits in length generates an error message.
+ Because the grouping is off. Checking grouping on input is pointless
+ so just ignore the grouping separator when parsing number input.
+ Bug 753283 - Current Selection Highlight Lost After Transaction Edit in
+ Scheduled Transaction Window
+ Bug 787813 - Price change from editing a transaction not reflected in
+ pricedb.
+ Bug 794877 - Intro text of "Online Banking Setup" is outdated
+ Bug 795804 - Extremely slow save
+ Only update the status bar when the percentage changes by at least
+ 1% because running the mainloop is expensive on macOS and Microsoft
+ Windows. This speeds up all operations that run the progress bar with
+ overly-fine resolution.
+ Bug 796761 - Newline (char(10)) is inserted into the end of the string if
+ copy & paste text from excel into the description field of
+ transaction
+ Bug 797787 - Feature request: preference setting to open new tabs adjacent
+ to currently active tab
+ Tests preference; if enabled then new tab inserted after current. if
+ disabled then new tab is at the end.
+ Bug 797928 - Since last run asks for security price when no shares traded
+ Bug 798093 - Changing the symbol/abbreviation of a security after the
+ trading account was created breaks GnuCash.(Reopened)
+ Bug 798133 - Gnucash crash when any custom action is entered
+ Bug 798144 - Reconciliation uses different number than entered
+ If a number was pasted into the balance end value with a currency
+ symbol the number would silently fail on evaluate and cause the wrong
+ value to be used. With previous changes to the GNCAmountEdit widget
+ a warning symbol will indicate a validation error and prevents going
+ forward.
+ Bug 798148 - "Accounts" page Present (USD) column uses future prices
+ Bug 798151 - Value entry box not tied to associated transaction in Since
+ Last Run assistant
+ Bug 798156 - glib 2.68.0 breaks gnucash
+ Bug 798159 - Keyboard shortcut bug in 'manage document link'
+ Bug 798162 - Type Ahead Initialization Problem
+ Bug 798170 - Unbound variable: gnc-budget-lookup when running saved report
+ Budget Report via gnucash-cli
+ Bug 798177 - Price of new stock transactions not saved in price database
+ Bug 798186 - Incorrect result editting account in register when
+ overtyping a part selection.
+ Bug 798188 - The Invoice Editor -> Printable Invoice toolbar button
+ crashes on Windows
+ Bug 798196 - not building with Boost 1.76
+ Bug 798199 - Pasting invalid value in date column crashes GnuCash
+ Bug 798202 - Register input ignores theme on KDE rendering black text on
+ black background
+ Bug 798203 - g_assert fault while reversing transaction
+ Bug 798204 - Creation of Imbalance Accounts
+ Bug 798212 - right-click the down-arrow in the date register changes
+ focus to first split
+
+The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:
+
+ Improve transaction sorting on effective num field so that alpha
+ charachters and numbers larger than 1 billion will be ordered. Ordering
+ is now numeric for leading numbers (so that 9 sorts before 10) and
+ lexical beginning with the first non-numeric character. Note that if
+ one of the values begins with an alpha character ordering will be
+ entirely lexical. Lexical sorting is localized; as in the rest of
+ GnuCash only standard ASCII numbers (codepoints U+0030 - U+0039) are
+ treated as numbers.
+ Add import preferences for the difference in time considered when matching
+ an existing transaction to an imported one. A difference less than the
+ matching-date-threshold raises the score of the match; a difference
+ greater than match-date-not-threshold lowers the score.
+ Add experimental report "IFRS weighted-average cost basis report". This is
+ a work-in-progress to help calculate the cost basis of securities
+ priced in a foreign currency.
+ [income-gst-statement] amend headers post Brexit. UK left EU, therefore
+ VAT headers have now changed.
+ Plug a bunch of memory leaks.
+ Change how the print_info is obtained for the register: Currently the
+ register sets up some 'print_info' values using the default account
+ but if the register is a stock register they should be obtained from a
+ parent account with a currency.
+ Change monetary value for gnc_default_share_print_info: Share values are
+ not currencies so set the monetary value to 0 for the GNCPrintAmountInfo
+ Parse the register monetary cells for a currency symbol: Add the ability to
+ strip the currency symbol from a registry monetary cell if it is pasted
+ with one so it can be validated.
+ SKR-49 Account Template: Add codes 4500-4504, drop a duplicate, correct
+ code 0674.
+ [gnc-plugin-page-register] Disable reverse on blank split
+ Make balancing transactions with trading accounts easier by removing and
+ recalculating all trading splits. This ensures that there will be only
+ one trading split pair per exchange and relieves the user of having to
+ adjust the trading splits to match the accounting splits.
+ Don't bother scrubbing for orphans if there's no transaction currency. If
+ it found one it would try to create an orphan account with no currency
+ which will crash later.
+ [chartjs] upgrade chartjs to 2.9.4. Fixes CVE-2020-7746
+ [report-core] disallow define-report with incomplete export info. If
+ exporting is allowed, 'export-types and 'export-thunk must both be
+ defined.
+ [test-engine-extras] augment book data generators
+ ignore .vscode folder
+ Reorder and relabel price source list for better coherence
+ Python Bindings: Provide a deprecated GncPriceDB.lookup_latest_before_t64
+ to avoid breaking user scripts.
+ Update gnucash_core.py with gnc-pricedb function name change
+ Change some functions to use const gnc_commodity for gnc_pricedb
+ Reformat schedule transaction source files for white space
+ Add depreciation warnings for the removal of individual option tool tips
+ Remove individual tool tips from radio button options
+ Removes the function gnc_option_permissible_value_description
+ ESC key was not working on load of Scheduled Transaction Editor
+ [budget.scm] show correct tooltip for report option
+ [html-acct-table] Remove unused 'pre-adjusting balances option
+ Bugfix: export-code for category-barchart reports would fail.
+ This stems from trying to handle file-name when calling export code.
+ Export code no longer require file-name, The export-code returns a
+ string in the html-document object instead. Remove all file-name
+ handling in reports. No backward compatibility issues because most
+ users would not copy a GnuCash >=4.6 report code onto a <4.5
+ installation.
+ [gnucash-cli] improve discoverability of export-type. Formerly, selecting
+ --export-type EXT would dump the cryptic "Report REPORTNAME has no
+ export code". Modify to hint the user on acceptable reports with
+ export-code.
+
+New API
+
+ [report-utilities] Functions to dump splits in whole book:
+ gnc:dump-book - splits grouped by account
+ gnc:dump-all-transactions - splits grouped by transaction
+ gnc:dump-split - dumps single split
+
+ Rename a couple of gnc-pricedb functions that have not been used:
+ gnc_pricedb_lookup_latest_before_t64 to
+ gnc_pricedb_lookup_nearest_before_t64
+ gnc_pricedb_lookup_latest_before_any_currency_t64 to
+ gnc_pricedb_lookup_nearest_before_any_currency_t64
+ Add retrieval functions for price before the date given:
+ gnc_pricedb_convert_balance_nearest_before_price_t64 that retrieves
+ the balance using the last price dated before a specified date
+ like today for the preset value.
+ gnc_pricedb_get_nearest_before_price does the retrieval.
+
