libostree v2019.2



https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/releases/tag/v2019.2

It's been some time since the last release, so this is a slightly larger
one! There's lots of new features, and a few bug fixes. Some highlights
below.

New features:

- A new sysroot.bootloader key was added to be more explicit about
which bootloader OSTree should use. Notably a none value is
supported, in which OSTree is solely responsible for writing the BLS
entries. This can then be used by bootloaders like GRUB2, which now
supports BLS natively. (#1814)
- ostree config now supports the unset command to unset a key from
the OSTree repo config (#1743)
- ostree remote add now supports the --force flag to replace a
remote of the same name if it exists (#1166)
- ostree-prepare-root now logs a structured journal message after
finding the deployment to which to pivot. This can be used by
higher-level apps like RPM-OSTree to build a history of the
deployments the machine was booted into. (#1842)
- The staging API now supports a lockfile which prevents finalization at
shutdown. This is intended to be used in systems like Fedora CoreOS,
which needs more fine-tuned control between staging a deployment,
and setting it as the default deployment on reboot. (#1841)
- ostree static-delta show now prints the From and To commits for
which the delta was generated (#1823)

Bug fixes:

- Make looking up collection-refs similar to how regular refs are looked
up, i.e. first in the transaction, then in the current repo, and then
in the parent repo (#1821)
- Don't include the OSTree commit version number twice in the boot menu
title. This affected at least Fedora-based systems composed with
RPM-OSTree's mutate-os-release. (#1829)
- Activate ostree-finalize-staged earlier; this should hopefully make
deployment finalization more reliable by running it later in the
shutdown sequence, when less services are running (#1840)
- Run grub2-mkconfig on the filesystem tree of the pending deployment,
rather than the previously deployed tree. This was a corner case where
the deployment failed if a previous deployment did not exist, on
systems where grub.cfg is used. (#1831)

As always, thanks to all the contributors!
