1.0+beta9 (19/05/2017)

• Add support for building Reason projects (Rudi Grinberg, #58)

• Add support for building javascript with js-of-ocaml (Hugo Heuzard,
  #60)

• Better support for topkg release workflow. See
  topkg-jbuilder for more
  details

• Port the manual to rst and setup a jbuilder project on
  readthedocs.org (Rudi Grinberg, #78)

• Hint for mistyped targets. Only suggest correction on the basename
  for now, otherwise it's slow when the workspace is big

• Add a (package ...) field for aliases, so that one can restrict
  tests to a specific package (Rudi Grinberg, #64)

• Fix a couple of bugs on Windows:

  • fix parsing of end of lines in some cases
  • do not take the case into account when comparing environment
    variable names

• Add AppVeyor CI

• Better error message in case a chain of dependencies crosses the
  installed world

• Better error messages for invalid dependency list in jbuild files

• Severel improvements/fixes regarding the handling of findlib packages:

  • Better error messages when a findlib package is unavailable
  • Don't crash when an installed findlib package has missing
    dependencies
  • Handle the findlib alternative directory layout which is still
    used by a few packages

• Add jbuilder installed-libraries --not-available explaining why
  some libraries are not available

• jbuilder now records dependencies on files of external
  libraries. This mean that when you upgrade a library, jbuilder will
  know what need to be rebuilt.

• Add a jbuilder rules subcommand to dump internal compilation
  rules, mostly for debugging purposes

• Ignore all directories starting with a . or _. This seems to be
  a common pattern:

  • .git, .hg, _darcs
  • _build
  • _opam (opam 2 local switches)

• Fix the hint for jbuilder external-lib-deps (#72)

• Do not require ocamllex and ocamlyacc to be at the same location
  as ocamlc (#75)
