Hello everyone!

We are going to release GIMP 2.10.2 with many bug fixes and even a few new features on the (hopeful) date of 2018/05/20.

Therefore I am announcing a string freeze on the master branch until this date.

This means that we ask all developers to not add or modify any string on master until the release of GIMP 2.10.2 is effective. If you have a pending patch with string changes, please do not push it and wait a few days. You will be able to push it after we announced the release.

Announcement on the gnome-i18n mailing list: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2018-May/msg00031.html

Thank you everyone!

Hi

Any hope to get documentation about Gimp-2.10 new .xcf format? This one is obsolete https://git.gnome.org/browse/g imp/tree/devel-docs/xcf.txt

Indeed, the XCF doc has not been much updated these last year.

I have just now updated a bit the docs for: - zlib compression (which is now a possible internal tile compression); - new layer modes;
- update in the header with the "precision" field.

See the recent log commits: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/log/devel-docs/xcf.txt

There is at least one more update relative to group mask. I will do this tomorrow.
There are also some changes relative to endianness, but I'll have to dig deeper (it looks like it was only a bug which would have touched some development XCF format only).

I will complete the docs with these 2 more information tomorrow. Now I'll go to bed!

Digikam / Kimageformats can't display new .xcf thumnails created with Gimp-2.10. It seems developers need this documentation to solve bug. https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=360821

Give them this link:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp/log/devel-docs/xcf.txt From the contents of recent commits, they will be able to easily find the differences. That is enough to start until I complete the docs. It's not that much change, format-wise (though it may be quite some work, because of the many new layer modes). :-) Thanks for reminding us.

Jehan

Thanks

Great! Thanks for all these useful informations and all your work on Gimp. :)

I did more updates to the docs. For the record, I *think* the docs is now up-to-date with all new changes in the XCF format. If anyone thinks some stuff are still wrong in the docs, please feel free to open bug reports (rather than emails which I may miss) explaining the parts where things are still unclear or not right when compared to actual XCF files.
