The Radicle team is delighted to announce the release of Radicle 1.1.0. This
release contains 47 commits by 8 contributors.

To upgrade or install, head to the [download](/download) section, or run the
following command from your terminal:

```
curl -sSLf {{ site.url }}/install | sh -s -- --version=1.1.0
```

## Database migration

This release includes a migration of the COB database to version 2. The
migration is run automatically when you start your node. If you'd like to run
it manually, use:

```
rad cob migrate
```

## Radicle HTTP Daemon

Seeders should upgrade their `radicle-httpd` installation to 0.18.0. Head
over to [download](/download) to grab that.

## What's in the box 📦

The Radicle 1.1.0 release includes quality of life improvements, bug fixes,
and a couple of new CLI commands.

### CLI

* A new `rad cob migrate` command was added to migrate the collaborative objects
  database.
* A new `--edit` flag was added to the `rad id update` command, to make changes
  to an identity document from your editor.
* A new `--storage` flag was added to `rad patch cache` and `rad issue cache`
  that operates on the entire storage, instead of a specific repository.
* When fetching a repository with `--seed` specified on the CLI, we now try to
  connect to the seed it if not already connected.
* A new set of sub-commands were added to `rad config`, for directly modifying
  the local Radicle configuration. See `rad config --help` for details.
* Repositories are now initialized with a new refspec for the `rad` remote, that
  ensures that tags are properly namespaced under their remote.
* A new `--remote <name>` flag was added to `rad patch checkout` and `rad patch
  set` to set the remote for those commands. Defaults to `rad`.
* The `RAD_PASSPHRASE` variable is now correctly treated as no passphrase when
  empty.

### Git Remote Helper

* The `GIT_DIR` environment variable is no longer required for listing refs via
  the remote helper. This means the commands can be run outside of a working
  copy.
* Fixed a bug where the wrong commit was used in the Patch COB when merging
  multiple patches with a single `git push`, resulting in some merged patches
  showing as unmerged.

### Collaborative Objects (COBs)

* Fixed compatibility with certain old patches that contained empty reviews.
* Added a new `review.edit` action to the `xyz.radicle.patch` COB, for editing
  reviews.

### Node

* When fetching a repository, the fetch would fail if the canonical branch could
  not be established. This is no longer the case, allowing the user to handle the problem
  locally.
* When fetching a repository, we no longer fail a fetch from a peer that is
  missing a reference to the default branch.
* Private RIDs that could sometimes leak over the gossip protocol no longer do.
  Note that this only affected the identifiers, not any repository data.

### Protocol

* A new `rad/root` reference is added to the list of signed references
  (`rad/sigrefs`). This prevents a possible reference grafting attack.
