Sourced from coverage's releases.

coverage-5.5

• coverage combine has a new option, --keep to keep the original data files after combining them. The default is still to delete the files after they have been combined. This was requested in issue 1108 and implemented in pull request 1110. Thanks, Éric Larivière.
• When reporting missing branches in coverage report, branches aren’t reported that jump to missing lines. This adds to the long-standing behavior of not reporting branches from missing lines. Now branches are only reported if both the source and destination lines are executed. Closes both issue 1065 and issue 955.
• Minor improvements to the HTML report:
  • The state of the line visibility selector buttons is saved in local storage so you don’t have to fiddle with them so often, fixing issue 1123.
  • It has a little more room for line numbers so that 4-digit numbers work well, fixing issue 1124.
• Improved the error message when combining line and branch data, so that users will be more likely to understand what’s happening, closing issue 803.

coverage-5.4

• The text report produced by coverage report now always outputs a TOTAL line, even if only one Python file is reported. This makes regex parsing of the output easier. Thanks, Judson Neer. This had been requested a number of times (issue 1086, issue 922, issue 732).
• The skip_covered and skip_empty settings in the configuration file can now be specified in the [html] section, so that text reports and HTML reports can use separate settings. The HTML report will still use the [report] settings if there isn’t a value in the [html] section. Closes issue 1090.
• Combining files on Windows across drives now works properly, fixing issue 577. Thanks, Valentin Lab.
• Fix an obscure warning from deep in the _decimal module, as reported in issue 1084.
• Update to support Python 3.10 alphas in progress, including PEP 626: Precise line numbers for debugging and other tools.

coverage-5.3.1

• When using --source on a large source tree, v5.x was slower than previous versions. This performance regression is now fixed, closing issue 1037.
• Mysterious SQLite errors can happen on PyPy, as reported in issue 1010. An immediate retry seems to fix the problem, although it is an unsatisfying solution.
• The HTML report now saves the sort order in a more widely supported way, fixing issue 986. Thanks, Sebastián Ramírez (pull request 1066).
• The HTML report pages now have a Sleepy Snake favicon.
• Wheels are now provided for manylinux2010, and for PyPy3 (pp36 and pp37).
• Continuous integration has moved from Travis and AppVeyor to GitHub Actions.

coverage-5.3

• The source setting has always been interpreted as either a file path or a module, depending on which existed. If both interpretations were valid, it was assumed to be a file path. The new source_pkgs setting can be used to name a package to disambiguate this case. Thanks, Thomas Grainger. Fixes issue 268.
• If a plugin was disabled due to an exception, we used to still try to record its information, causing an exception, as reported in issue 1011. This is now fixed.

coverage-5.2.1

• The dark mode HTML report still used light colors for the context listing, making them unreadable (issue 1009). This is now fixed.
• The time stamp on the HTML report now includes the time zone. Thanks, Xie Yanbo (pull request 960).

coverage-5.2

• The HTML report has been redesigned by Vince Salvino. There is now a dark mode, the code text is larger, and system sans serif fonts are used, in addition to other small changes (issue 858 and pull request 931).
• The coverage report and coverage html commands now accept a --precision option to control the number of decimal points displayed. Thanks, Teake Nutma (pull request 982).
• The coverage report and coverage html commands now accept a --no-skip-covered option to negate --skip-covered. Thanks, Anthony Sottile (issue 779 and pull request 932).
• The --skip-empty option is now available for the XML report, closing issue 976.
• The coverage report command now accepts a --sort option to specify how to sort the results. Thanks, Jerin Peter George (pull request 1005).
• If coverage fails due to the coverage total not reaching the --fail-under value, it will now print a message making the condition clear. Thanks, Naveen Yadav (pull request 977).
• TOML configuration files with non-ASCII characters would cause errors on Windows (issue 990). This is now fixed.
• The output of --debug=trace now includes information about how the --source option is being interpreted, and the module names being considered.

coverage-5.1

• The JSON report now includes counts of covered and missing branches. Thanks, Salvatore Zagaria.
• On Python 3.8, try-finally-return reported wrong branch coverage with decorated async functions (issue 964). This is now fixed. Thanks, Kjell Braden.

methods can now manipulate the [paths] configuration setting. Thanks to Bernát Gábor for the fix for issue 967.

coverage-5.0.4

• If using the [run] relative_files setting, the XML report will use relative files in the <source> elements indicating the location of source code. Closes issue 948.
• The textual summary report could report missing lines with negative line numbers on PyPy3 7.1 (issue 943). This is now fixed.
• Windows wheels for Python 3.8 were incorrectly built, but are now fixed. (issue 949)
