This can be useful to override defaults in scripts.
These flags will now toggle when repeated on the command line:
--invert
--transpose
-r/--related
-%/--percent
-E/--empty
-N/--no-total
-T/--row-total
-A/--average
-S/--sort-amount
Since hledger 1.25, "every Nth day of month" period rules with N > 28
could be off by a couple of days if given certain forecast start dates.
Eg `~ every 31st day of month` with `--forecast='2023-03-30..'`.
Breaking change: previously timeclock descriptions could contain
semicolons. Now a semicolon in the description will end it and
start a comment (which may contain tags).
I found at least one user for whom this would be a breaking change
(they generate forecast txns, and have auto posting rules, but don't
want the latter applied to the former). I guess it's better to keep
things as they were for now: if you need auto postings on your
forecast txns you must use two flags, --forecast --auto.
When doing a type: match we now also check the original unaliased,
unpivoted posting, as when doing an acct: match. This is effectively
how things worked with the older account type detection in hledger <1.27.
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.
Boolean queries are now prefixed with an 'expr:' prefix, making them
completely separable from old queries and making the addition of them a
little more migration proof.
The tests are updated accordingly, changes made to the tests previously
are removed and extra cautious documentation is also removed.
This commit changes some of the functions in the Query module and
changes the overall way to parse queries. Instead of using the words''
split function, this commit starts to fully parse the query, as it's
seen as a type of expression.
AND, OR, NOT, and space operators can be used. The space operator
simulates the behaviour from before, leaving a minimal amount of tests
that need to be adjusted to comply to the new behaviour.
