Released on July 2, 2026, consistgen v0.0.10 is a maintenance release dedicated to updating the project’s core dependencies and hardening its CI/CD pipeline. While this version introduces no new public API changes, it represents a critical step in ensuring the library’s long-term stability and security.

What’s new

This release focuses on keeping the project’s ecosystem current and secure:

  • Dependency Refreshes: We’ve updated a wide array of build-time and runtime dependencies. This includes the latest versions of essential Maven plugins (Compiler, Surefire, Source) and critical libraries like JUnit Jupiter and Lombok.
  • CI/CD Security Hardening: To protect our build pipeline from “tag drifting,” we have moved toward pinning GitHub Actions to specific commit SHAs. This ensures that every build is reproducible and protects the supply chain from unexpected external changes.
  • Workflow Updates: Our GitHub Actions workflows, including the zizmor check, have been refreshed to align with the latest best practices.

Why it matters

Maintenance releases like v0.0.10 may seem quiet, but they are the bedrock of a reliable library. By updating our dependencies, we ensure compatibility with modern build environments and benefit from the latest performance and security patches in the Java ecosystem.

More importantly, the shift toward commit-SHA pinning in our CI/CD pipeline is a commitment to security. In a world where supply chain attacks are an increasing threat, ensuring that the exact code used to build our releases is verified and immutable is paramount. For our users, this means higher confidence in the integrity of the artifacts they download.

Upgrading to v0.0.10

Upgrading is straightforward. Since there are no breaking changes, you only need to update the version in your pom.xml:

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.unitvectory</groupId>
    <artifactId>consistgen</artifactId>
    <version>0.0.10</version>
</dependency>

The library continues to require Java 17.

We thank you for using consistgen to make your tests more deterministic and your applications more robust. Stay tuned for more feature updates in the future!
