Release Notes

• fix persistent cache when some build dependencies are on a different windows drive
• make order of evaluation of side-effect-free modules deterministic between concatenated and non-concatenated modules
• remove left-over from debugging in TLA/async modules runtime code
• remove unneeded extra 1s timestamp offset during watching when files are actually untouched
  • This sometimes caused an additional second build which are not really needed
• fix shareScope option for ModuleFederationPlugin
• set "use-credentials" also for same origin scripts

Performance

  • This affects rebuild performance

Extensibility
