Previously, similarity completely outweighed recency, so a
slightly-more-similar transaction would always be selected no matter
how old it was. Now similarity and recency are more balanced,
and it should produce the desired transaction more often.
There is also new debug output (at debug level 1) for
troubleshooting.
Currently an account name like "a:(aa)" will not have (aa) unbracketed.
However, this seems reasonable since the full name is unbracketed and
thus will not be confused with virtual or virtual-balanced posting.
Hledger.Utils.Debug's "trace or log" functions are now controlled as
follows: to enable logging, append ",logging" to the program name at
startup (using withProgName). This also works when running in GHCI.
And they log to PROGNAME.log, not debug.log.
All (hopefully) debug logging in the hledger packages is now "trace or
log" capable.
This means that hledger-ui should now log all debug output to
./hledger-ui.log, with none of it appearing on the console.
This replaces the old journal*AccountQuery with the new Type query. This
enables uniform treatment of account type, and fixes a subtle bug
(#1921).
Note that cbcsubreportquery no longer takes Journal as an argument.
hledger check recentassertions (or flycheck-hledger if you enable this
check) will complain if any balance-asserted account does not have a
balance assertion within 7 days before its latest posting. This aims
to prevent the situation where you are regularly updating your
journal, but forgetting to check your balances against the real world,
eventually requiring you to dig back through months of data to find
the error.
transaction prices.
When given --infer-costs, hledger will now separately infer transaction
prices for different prices. Given a pair of adjacent conversion
postings, hledger will check if there is a single posting with a
transaction price which matches both the amounts. If so, it associates
those conversion postings to that priced post.
If it can't find any transaction price postings which match, it will
find the first non-transaction price post which matches one of the two
amounts, and will add a transaction price to that, and associate them.
