Previously Alacritty would always initialize only a single terminal
emulator window feeding into the winit event loop, however some
platforms like macOS expect all windows to be spawned by the same
process and this "daemon-mode" can also come with the advantage of
increased memory efficiency.
The event loop has been restructured to handle all window-specific
events only by the event processing context with the associated window
id. This makes it possible to add new terminal windows at any time using
the WindowContext::new function call.
Some preliminary tests have shown that for empty terminals, this reduces
the cost of additional terminal emulators from ~100M to ~6M. However at
this point the robustness of the daemon against issues with individual
terminals has not been refined, making the reliability of this system
questionable.
New windows can be created either by using the new `CreateNewWindow`
action, or with the `alacritty msg create-window` subcommand. The
subcommand sends a message to an IPC socket which Alacritty listens on,
its location can be found in the `ALACRITTY_SOCKET` environment
variable.
Fixes #607.

Alacritty's description in the readme and manpage has always been a bit
overly aggressive in its marketing. This new updated text should more
accurately describe Alacritty's current state without pointlessly
agitating people.

This removes some of Alacritty's CLI flags since the same functionality
is provided by the '--option' flag now.
The removed flags are:
* '--persistent-logging'
* '--live-config-reload'
* '--no-live-config-reload'
* '--dimensions'
* '--position'
Fixes #4246.

This uses the facilities added in
3c3e6870dedad56b270f5b65ea57d5a6e46b1de6 to allow overriding individual
configuration file options dynamically from the CLI using the
--options/-o parameter.
Fixes #1258.

This is a bump of the development version and does not represent a

This fixes various outdated links pointing to the old jwilm/alacritty
repository.
Since `copypasta` now has its own github repository at
https://github.com/alacritty/copypasta, the sources have been removed
from Alacritty.

Fixes #3154.

To make the release process a bit smoother and prevent a freeze of the
master process while review candidates are out, this will put the master
in a perpetual development state.
This should make it clear to everyone that the official source for
releases is always the tagged branch and make it possible to release new
versions completely independently.
Since versions are bumped after each release, this makes it so the
release branches do not have to get merged back into the master branch
to show the correct development version.

This implements --hold flag which keeps Alacritty open after
its child process exits.
Fixes #1165.
