# Release X.Y (202?-??-??)
* Nix now provides better integration with zsh's run-help feature. It is now
included in the Nix installation in the form of an autoloadable shell
function, run-help-nix. It picks up Nix subcommands from the currently typed
in command and directs the user to the associated man pages.
* `nix repl` has a new build-'n-link (`:bl`) command that builds a derivation
while creating GC root symlinks.

This matches the default behaviour of `nix-build`.
* Nix can now be built with LTO by passing `--enable-lto` to `configure`.
LTO is currently only supported when building with GCC.
LTO is currently only supported when building with GCC.
* You can now specify which outputs of a derivation `nix` should
operate on using the syntax `installable^outputs`,
e.g. `nixpkgs#glibc^dev,static` or `nixpkgs#glibc^*`. By default,
`nix` will use the outputs specified by the derivation's
`meta.outputsToInstall` attribute if it exists, or all outputs
otherwise.
Selecting derivation outputs using the attribute selection syntax
(e.g. `nixpkgs#glibc.dev`) no longer works.
