The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug
reports:
[import-main-matcher.cpp] After clicking/toggling A/U+C/C
checkbox, reselect the row because it'll be much faster to use
keyboard navigation -- use up/down/left/right to target desired
checkbox, hit <down> <space> repeatedly to repeat the same action
over several consecutive rows.
Implement support for !Type:Prices records in the QIF importer.
Modernize construction of GObjects using G_DECLARE_DERIVABLE,
G_DECLARE_FINAL, etc.
Fix yet more leaks.
[DBI backend] Change DBI test URLs to environment variables
from cmake configuration definitions.
Restore the Stock Transaction Assistant to full operation.
Fix the Fancy Date file property so that it saves.
Fix formatting error in po files project-id line.
[simple-business-create.py] Overwrite an existing file instead
of crashing.
Update github action package versions.
Add parsing mixed number and fraction (e.g. 10 1/2) to the
gnc_numeric string constructor.
Bump minimum cmake version to 3.14 and drop some conditionals
for older versions
Major speedup in the SQLBackend by replacing C++ exceptions
with std::optional for null values.
Refresh the GUI on completion of the import matcher so that the
imports are immediately reflected in the register.
Improve online quote retrieval error reporting.
Test loading and saving XML files with and without compression
[import-main-matcher] always defer_bal_computation during
import to speed up both importing new transactions, and destroying
existing ones.
GncGtkListUIItem::set_option_from_ui_item: Iterate over
selected items Instead of all possible items.
Convert gnc-ofx-import.c, import-parse.c, import-utilities.c,
import-format-dialog.c, import-account-matcher.c,
import-commodity-matcher.c, import-settings.c,
import-pending-matches.c, import-match-picker.c,
import-main-matcher.c, and gnc-pricedb.c to .cpp
By default, filter out online_wiggle in test-gnc-quotes.
Running ./bin/test-gnc-quotes from the command line will still
include online_wiggle
Replace yahoo_json with alphavantage in test-gnc-quotes.
yahoo_json is too unstable.
Include timezone in price-quote date diagnostic messages.
