8.2.1 - 2026-08-07

Fixed

• Removed "minimum-stability": "dev" from composer.json

8.2.0 - 2026-08-07

Added

• ObjectExporter interface, ObjectExporterChain, and ExportContext for customizing how objects are exported (an object exporter can be passed to Exporter's constructor and is consulted before the default representation of an object is used)
• Exporter::shortenedExport() and Exporter::shortenedRecursiveExport() use the representation provided by an object exporter as well; it is collapsed to a single line and shortened when it is longer than the configured maximum length
• Exporter::hasCustomRepresentationFor() for checking whether an object exporter provides the representation for an object

8.1.1 - 2026-07-13

Fixed

• A lone \n (LF) followed by a lone \r (CR) was incorrectly treated as a single \n\r line ending when exporting a string; these are now treated as two separate line endings
