Changelog

* Mon Mar 18 2024 Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de>
  - Add xarray-pr8797-tokenize.patch
    * gh#pydata/xarray#8797 fixes gh#pydata/xarray#8788
* Fri Mar 01 2024 Matej Cepl <mcepl@cepl.eu>
  - Skip Python 3.9. It requires pydap, which is not available any
    more.
* Tue Feb 27 2024 Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de>
  - Update to 2024.2.0
    * This release brings size information to the text repr, changes
      to the accepted frequency strings, and various bug fixes.
    [#]# New Features
    * Added a simple nbytes representation in DataArrays and Dataset
      repr. (GH8690, PR8702). By Etienne Schalk.
    * Allow negative frequency strings (e.g. "-1YE"). These strings
      are for example used in date_range(), and cftime_range()
      (PR8651). By Mathias Hauser.
    * Add NamedArray.expand_dims(), NamedArray.permute_dims() and
      NamedArray.broadcast_to() (PR8380) By Anderson Banihirwe.
    * Xarray now defers to flox’s heuristics to set the default
      method for groupby problems. This only applies to flox>=0.9. By
      Deepak Cherian.
    * All quantile methods (e.g. DataArray.quantile()) now use
      numbagg for the calculation of nanquantiles (i.e., skipna=True)
      if it is installed. This is currently limited to the linear
      interpolation method (method=’linear’). (GH7377, PR8684) By
      Marco Wolsza.
    [#]# Breaking changes
    * infer_freq() always returns the frequency strings as defined in
      pandas 2.2 (GH8612, PR8627). By Mathias Hauser.
    * Deprecations
    * The dt.weekday_name parameter wasn’t functional on modern
      pandas versions and has been removed. (GH8610, PR8664) By Sam
      Coleman.
    [#]# Bug fixes
    * Fixed a regression that prevented multi-index level coordinates
      being serialized after resetting or dropping the multi-index
      (GH8628, PR8672). By Benoit Bovy.
    * Fix bug with broadcasting when wrapping array API-compliant
      classes. (GH8665, PR8669) By Tom Nicholas.
    * Ensure DataArray.unstack() works when wrapping array
      API-compliant classes. (GH8666, PR8668) By Tom Nicholas.
    * Fix negative slicing of Zarr arrays without dask installed.
      (GH8252) By Deepak Cherian.
    * Preserve chunks when writing time-like variables to zarr by
      enabling lazy CF encoding of time-like variables (GH7132,
      GH8230, GH8432, PR8575). By Spencer Clark and Mattia Almansi.
    * Preserve chunks when writing time-like variables to zarr by
      enabling their lazy encoding (GH7132, GH8230, GH8432, PR8253,
      PR8575; see also discussion in PR8253). By Spencer Clark and
      Mattia Almansi.
    * Raise an informative error if dtype encoding of time-like
      variables would lead to integer overflow or unsafe conversion
      from floating point to integer values (GH8542, PR8575). By
      Spencer Clark.
    * Raise an error when unstacking a MultiIndex that has duplicates
      as this would lead to silent data loss (GH7104, PR8737). By
      Mathias Hauser.
  - Release 2024.1.1
    [#]# Breaking changes
    * Following pandas, infer_freq() will return "YE", instead of "Y"
      (formerly "A"). This is to be consistent with the deprecation
      of the latter frequency string in pandas 2.2. This is a follow
      up to PR8415 (GH8612, PR8642). By Mathias Hauser.
    [#]# Deprecations
    * Following pandas, the frequency string "Y" (formerly "A") is
      deprecated in favor of "YE". These strings are used, for
      example, in date_range(), cftime_range(), DataArray.resample(),
      and Dataset.resample() among others (GH8612, PR8629). By
      Mathias Hauser.
  - Release 2024.1.0
    * This release brings support for weights in correlation and
      covariance functions, a new DataArray.cumulative aggregation,
      improvements to xr.map_blocks, an update to our minimum
      dependencies, and various bugfixes.
    [#]# New Features
    * xr.cov() and xr.corr() now support using weights (GH8527,
      PR7392). By Llorenç Lledó.
    * Accept the compression arguments new in netCDF 1.6.0 in the
      netCDF4 backend. See netCDF4 documentation for details. Note
      that some new compression filters needs plugins to be installed
      which may not be available in all netCDF distributions. By
      Markel García-Díez. (GH6929, PR7551)
    * Add DataArray.cumulative() & Dataset.cumulative() to compute
      cumulative aggregations, such as sum, along a dimension — for
      example da.cumulative('time').sum(). This is similar to pandas’
      .expanding, and mostly equivalent to .cumsum methods, or to
      DataArray.rolling() with a window length equal to the dimension
      size. By Maximilian Roos. (PR8512)
    * Decode/Encode netCDF4 enums and store the enum definition in
      dataarrays’ dtype metadata. If multiple variables share the
      same enum in netCDF4, each dataarray will have its own enum
      definition in their respective dtype metadata. By Abel Aoun.
      (GH8144, PR8147)
    [#]# Deprecations
    * The squeeze kwarg to GroupBy is now deprecated. (GH2157,
      PR8507) By Deepak Cherian.
    [#]# Bug fixes
    * Support non-string hashable dimensions in xarray.DataArray
      (GH8546, PR8559). By Michael Niklas.
    * Reverse index output of bottleneck’s rolling
      move_argmax/move_argmin functions (GH8541, PR8552). By Kai
      Mühlbauer.
    * Vendor SerializableLock from dask and use as default lock for
      netcdf4 backends (GH8442, PR8571). By Kai Mühlbauer.
    * Add tests and fixes for empty CFTimeIndex, including broken
      html repr (GH7298, PR8600). By Mathias Hauser.
  - Create subpackages for the python [extras], test dependencies
    with _multibuild
* Thu Jan 04 2024 Sebastian Wagner <sebix@sebix.at>
  - Disable ROS3 tests, because hdf5 library was built without ROS3 support.
* Wed Dec 20 2023 Sebastian Wagner <sebix@sebix.at>
  - remove obsolete patch file xarray-pr8139-pandas-fill_value.patch
* Wed Dec 13 2023 Sebastian Wagner <sebix@sebix.at>
  - update to version 2023.12.0:
    - This release brings new `hypothesis <https://hypothesis.works/>`_ strategies for testing, significantly faster rolling aggregations as well as:
    ``ffill`` and ``bfill`` with ``numbagg``, a new :py:meth:`Dataset.eval` method, and improvements to
    - reading and writing Zarr arrays (including a new ``"a-"`` mode).:
    - Thanks to our 16 contributors:
    - Anderson Banihirwe, Ben Mares, Carl Andersson, Deepak Cherian, Doug Latornell, Gregorio L. Trevisan, Illviljan, Jens Hedegaard Nielsen, Justus Magin, Mathias Hauser, Max Jones, Maximilian Roos, Michael Niklas, Patrick Hoefler, Ryan Abernathey, Tom Nicholas:
    - New Features:
    - Added hypothesis strategies for generating :py:class:`xarray.Variable` objects containing arbitrary data, useful for parametrizing downstream tests.
      Accessible under :py:mod:`testing.strategies`, and documented in a new page on testing in the User Guide.
      (:issue:`6911`, :pull:`8404`)
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - :py:meth:`rolling` uses `numbagg <https://github.com/numbagg/numbagg>`_ for
      most of its computations by default. Numbagg is up to 5x faster than bottleneck
      where parallelization is possible. Where parallelization isn't possible — for
      example a 1D array — it's about the same speed as bottleneck, and 2-5x faster
      than pandas' default functions. (:pull:`8493`). numbagg is an optional
      dependency, so requires installing separately.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Use a concise format when plotting datetime arrays. (:pull:`8449`).
      By `Jimmy Westling <https://github.com/illviljan>`_.
    - Avoid overwriting unchanged existing coordinate variables when appending with :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` by setting ``mode='a-'``.
      By `Ryan Abernathey <https://github.com/rabernat>`_ and `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - :py:meth:`~xarray.DataArray.rank` now operates on dask-backed arrays, assuming
      the core dim has exactly one chunk. (:pull:`8475`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Add a :py:meth:`Dataset.eval` method, similar to the pandas' method of the
      same name. (:pull:`7163`). This is currently marked as experimental and
      doesn't yet support the ``numexpr`` engine.
    - :py:meth:`Dataset.drop_vars` & :py:meth:`DataArray.drop_vars` allow passing a
      callable, similar to :py:meth:`Dataset.where` & :py:meth:`Dataset.sortby` & others.
      (:pull:`8511`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Breaking changes:
    - Explicitly warn when creating xarray objects with repeated dimension names.
      Such objects will also now raise when :py:meth:`DataArray.get_axis_num` is called,
      which means many functions will raise.
      This latter change is technically a breaking change, but whilst allowed,
      this behaviour was never actually supported! (:issue:`3731`, :pull:`8491`)
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - Deprecations:
    - As part of an effort to standardize the API, we're renaming the ``dims``
      keyword arg to ``dim`` for the minority of functions which current use
      ``dims``. This started with :py:func:`xarray.dot` & :py:meth:`DataArray.dot`
      and we'll gradually roll this out across all functions. The warnings are
      currently ``PendingDeprecationWarning``, which are silenced by default. We'll
      convert these to ``DeprecationWarning`` in a future release.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Raise a ``FutureWarning`` warning that the type of :py:meth:`Dataset.dims` will be changed
      from a mapping of dimension names to lengths to a set of dimension names.
      This is to increase consistency with :py:meth:`DataArray.dims`.
      To access a mapping of dimension names to lengths please use :py:meth:`Dataset.sizes`.
      The same change also applies to `DatasetGroupBy.dims`.
      (:issue:`8496`, :pull:`8500`)
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - :py:meth:`Dataset.drop` & :py:meth:`DataArray.drop` are now deprecated, since pending deprecation for
      several years. :py:meth:`DataArray.drop_sel` & :py:meth:`DataArray.drop_var`
      replace them for labels & variables respectively. (:pull:`8497`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Bug fixes:
    - Fix dtype inference for ``pd.CategoricalIndex`` when categories are backed by a ``pd.ExtensionDtype`` (:pull:`8481`)
    - Fix writing a variable that requires transposing when not writing to a region (:pull:`8484`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Static typing of ``p0`` and ``bounds`` arguments of :py:func:`xarray.DataArray.curvefit` and :py:func:`xarray.Dataset.curvefit`
      was changed to ``Mapping`` (:pull:`8502`).
      By `Michael Niklas <https://github.com/headtr1ck>`_.
    - Fix typing of :py:func:`xarray.DataArray.to_netcdf` and :py:func:`xarray.Dataset.to_netcdf`
      when ``compute`` is evaluated to bool instead of a Literal (:pull:`8268`).
      By `Jens Hedegaard Nielsen <https://github.com/jenshnielsen>`_.
    - Documentation:
    - Added illustration of updating the time coordinate values of a resampled dataset using
      time offset arithmetic.
      This is the recommended technique to replace the use of the deprecated ``loffset`` parameter
      in ``resample`` (:pull:`8479`).
      By `Doug Latornell <https://github.com/douglatornell>`_.
    - Improved error message when attempting to get a variable which doesn't exist from a Dataset.
      (:pull:`8474`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Fix default value of ``combine_attrs`` in :py:func:`xarray.combine_by_coords` (:pull:`8471`)
      By `Gregorio L. Trevisan <https://github.com/gtrevisan>`_.
    - Internal Changes:
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.bfill` & :py:meth:`DataArray.ffill` now use numbagg <https://github.com/numbagg/numbagg>`_ by
      default, which is up to 5x faster where parallelization is possible. (:pull:`8339`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Update mypy version to 1.7 (:issue:`8448`, :pull:`8501`).
      By `Michael Niklas <https://github.com/headtr1ck>`_.
  - update to version 2023.11.0:
      `This is our 10th year anniversary release! <https://github.com/pydata/xarray/discussions/8462>`_ Thank you for your love and support.
    - This release brings the ability to use ``opt_einsum`` for :py:func:`xarray.dot` by default,:
    - support for auto-detecting ``region`` when writing partial datasets to Zarr, and the use of h5py:
    - drivers with ``h5netcdf``.:
    - Thanks to the 19 contributors to this release:
    - Aman Bagrecha, Anderson Banihirwe, Ben Mares, Deepak Cherian, Dimitri Papadopoulos Orfanos, Ezequiel Cimadevilla Alvarez,:
    - Illviljan, Justus Magin, Katelyn FitzGerald, Kai Muehlbauer, Martin Durant, Maximilian Roos, Metamess, Sam Levang, Spencer Clark, Tom Nicholas, mgunyho, templiert:
    - New Features:
    - Use `opt_einsum <https://optimized-einsum.readthedocs.io/en/stable/>`_ for :py:func:`xarray.dot` by default if installed.
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_. (:issue:`7764`, :pull:`8373`).
    - Add ``DataArray.dt.total_seconds()`` method to match the Pandas API. (:pull:`8435`).
      By `Ben Mares <https://github.com/maresb>`_.
    - Allow passing ``region="auto"`` in  :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` to automatically infer the
      region to write in the original store. Also implement automatic transpose when dimension
      order does not match the original store. (:issue:`7702`, :issue:`8421`, :pull:`8434`).
      By `Sam Levang <https://github.com/slevang>`_.
    - Allow the usage of h5py drivers (eg: ros3) via h5netcdf (:pull:`8360`).
      By `Ezequiel Cimadevilla <https://github.com/zequihg50>`_.
    - Enable VLEN string fill_values, preserve VLEN string dtypes (:issue:`1647`, :issue:`7652`, :issue:`7868`, :pull:`7869`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.
    - Breaking changes:
    - drop support for `cdms2 <https://github.com/CDAT/cdms>`_. Please use
      `xcdat <https://github.com/xCDAT/xcdat>`_ instead (:pull:`8441`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Following pandas, :py:meth:`infer_freq` will return ``"Y"``, ``"YS"``,
      ``"QE"``, ``"ME"``, ``"h"``, ``"min"``, ``"s"``, ``"ms"``, ``"us"``, or
      ``"ns"`` instead of ``"A"``, ``"AS"``, ``"Q"``, ``"M"``, ``"H"``, ``"T"``,
      ``"S"``, ``"L"``, ``"U"``, or ``"N"``.  This is to be consistent with the
      deprecation of the latter frequency strings (:issue:`8394`, :pull:`8415`). By
      `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Bump minimum tested pint version to ``>=0.22``. By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Minimum supported versions for the following packages have changed: ``h5py >=3.7``, ``h5netcdf>=1.1``.
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.
    - Deprecations:
    - The PseudoNetCDF backend has been removed. By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Supplying dimension-ordered sequences to :py:meth:`DataArray.chunk` &
      :py:meth:`Dataset.chunk` is deprecated in favor of supplying a dictionary of
      dimensions, or a single ``int`` or ``"auto"`` argument covering all
      dimensions. Xarray favors using dimensions names rather than positions, and
      this was one place in the API where dimension positions were used.
      (:pull:`8341`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Following pandas, the frequency strings ``"A"``, ``"AS"``, ``"Q"``, ``"M"``,
      ``"H"``, ``"T"``, ``"S"``, ``"L"``, ``"U"``, and ``"N"`` are deprecated in
      favor of ``"Y"``, ``"YS"``, ``"QE"``, ``"ME"``, ``"h"``, ``"min"``, ``"s"``,
      ``"ms"``, ``"us"``, and ``"ns"``, respectively.  These strings are used, for
      example, in :py:func:`date_range`, :py:func:`cftime_range`,
      :py:meth:`DataArray.resample`, and :py:meth:`Dataset.resample` among others
      (:issue:`8394`, :pull:`8415`).  By `Spencer Clark
      <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Rename :py:meth:`Dataset.to_array` to  :py:meth:`Dataset.to_dataarray` for
      consistency with :py:meth:`DataArray.to_dataset` &
      :py:func:`open_dataarray` functions. This is a "soft" deprecation — the
      existing methods work and don't raise any warnings, given the relatively small
      benefits of the change.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Finally remove ``keep_attrs`` kwarg from :py:meth:`DataArray.resample` and
      :py:meth:`Dataset.resample`. These were deprecated a long time ago.
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Bug fixes:
    - Port `bug fix from pandas <https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/pull/55283>`_
      to eliminate the adjustment of resample bin edges in the case that the
      resampling frequency has units of days and is greater than one day
      (e.g. ``"2D"``, ``"3D"`` etc.) and the ``closed`` argument is set to
      ``"right"`` to xarray's implementation of resample for data indexed by a
      :py:class:`CFTimeIndex` (:pull:`8393`).
      By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Fix to once again support date offset strings as input to the loffset
      parameter of resample and test this functionality (:pull:`8422`, :issue:`8399`).
      By `Katelyn FitzGerald <https://github.com/kafitzgerald>`_.
    - Fix a bug where :py:meth:`DataArray.to_dataset` silently drops a variable
      if a coordinate with the same name already exists (:pull:`8433`, :issue:`7823`).
      By `András Gunyhó <https://github.com/mgunyho>`_.
    - Fix for :py:meth:`DataArray.to_zarr` & :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` to close
      the created zarr store when passing a path with `.zip` extension (:pull:`8425`).
      By `Carl Andersson <https://github.com/CarlAndersson>_`.
    - Documentation:
    - Small updates to documentation on distributed writes: See :ref:`io.zarr.appending` to Zarr.
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
  - update to version 2023.10.1:
    - This release updates our minimum numpy version in ``pyproject.toml`` to 1.22,:
    - consistent with our documentation below.:
  - update to version 2023.10.0:
    - This release brings performance enhancements to reading Zarr datasets, the ability to use `numbagg <https://github.com/numbagg/numbagg>`_ for reductions,:
    - an expansion in API for ``rolling_exp``, fixes two regressions with datetime decoding,:
    - and many other bugfixes and improvements. Groupby reductions will also use ``numbagg`` if ``flox>=0.8.1`` and ``numbagg`` are both installed.:
    - Thanks to our 13 contributors:
    - Anderson Banihirwe, Bart Schilperoort, Deepak Cherian, Illviljan, Kai Mühlbauer, Mathias Hauser, Maximilian Roos, Michael Niklas, Pieter Eendebak, Simon Høxbro Hansen, Spencer Clark, Tom White, olimcc:
    - New Features:
    - Support high-performance reductions with `numbagg <https://github.com/numbagg/numbagg>`_.
      This is enabled by default if ``numbagg`` is installed.
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_. (:pull:`8316`)
    - Add ``corr``, ``cov``, ``std`` & ``var`` to ``.rolling_exp``.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_. (:pull:`8307`)
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.where` & :py:meth:`Dataset.where` accept a callable for
      the ``other`` parameter, passing the object as the only argument. Previously,
      this was only valid for the ``cond`` parameter. (:issue:`8255`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - ``.rolling_exp`` functions can now take a ``min_weight`` parameter, to only
      output values when there are sufficient recent non-nan values.
      ``numbagg>=0.3.1`` is required. (:pull:`8285`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.sortby` & :py:meth:`Dataset.sortby` accept a callable for
      the ``variables`` parameter, passing the object as the only argument.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - ``.rolling_exp`` functions can now operate on dask-backed arrays, assuming the
      core dim has exactly one chunk. (:pull:`8284`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Breaking changes:
    - Made more arguments keyword-only (e.g. ``keep_attrs``, ``skipna``) for many :py:class:`xarray.DataArray` and
      :py:class:`xarray.Dataset` methods (:pull:`6403`). By `Mathias Hauser <https://github.com/mathause>`_.
    - :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` & :py:meth:`DataArray.to_zarr` require keyword
      arguments after the initial 7 positional arguments.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Deprecations:
    - Rename :py:meth:`Dataset.reset_encoding` & :py:meth:`DataArray.reset_encoding`
      to :py:meth:`Dataset.drop_encoding` & :py:meth:`DataArray.drop_encoding` for
      consistency with other ``drop`` & ``reset`` methods — ``drop`` generally
      removes something, while ``reset`` generally resets to some default or
      standard value. (:pull:`8287`, :issue:`8259`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Bug fixes:
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.rename` & :py:meth:`Dataset.rename` would emit a warning
      when the operation was a no-op. (:issue:`8266`)
      By `Simon Hansen <https://github.com/hoxbro>`_.
    - Fixed a regression introduced in the previous release checking time-like units
      when encoding/decoding masked data (:issue:`8269`, :pull:`8277`).

    - Fix datetime encoding precision loss regression introduced in the previous
      release for datetimes encoded with units requiring floating point values, and
      a reference date not equal to the first value of the datetime array
      (:issue:`8271`, :pull:`8272`). By `Spencer Clark
      <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Fix excess metadata requests when using a Zarr store. Prior to this, metadata
      was re-read every time data was retrieved from the array, now metadata is retrieved only once
      when they array is initialized.
      (:issue:`8290`, :pull:`8297`).
      By `Oliver McCormack <https://github.com/olimcc>`_.
    - Fix to_zarr ending in a ReadOnlyError when consolidated metadata was used and the
      write_empty_chunks was provided.
      (:issue:`8323`, :pull:`8326`)
      By `Matthijs Amesz <https://github.com/Metamess>`_.
    - Documentation:
    - Added page on the interoperability of xarray objects.
      (:pull:`7992`) By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - Added xarray-regrid to the list of xarray related projects (:pull:`8272`).
      By `Bart Schilperoort <https://github.com/BSchilperoort>`_.
    - Internal Changes:
    - More improvements to support the Python `array API standard <https://data-apis.org/array-api/latest/>`_
      by using duck array ops in more places in the codebase. (:pull:`8267`)
      By `Tom White <https://github.com/tomwhite>`_.
  - update to version 2023.09.0:
    - This release continues work on the new :py:class:`xarray.Coordinates` object, allows to provide `preferred_chunks` when:
    - reading from netcdf files, enables :py:func:`xarray.apply_ufunc` to handle missing core dimensions and fixes several bugs.:
    - Thanks to the 24 contributors to this release: Alexander Fischer, Amrest Chinkamol, Benoit Bovy, Darsh Ranjan, Deepak Cherian,:
    - Gianfranco Costamagna, Gregorio L. Trevisan, Illviljan, Joe Hamman, JR, Justus Magin, Kai Mühlbauer, Kian-Meng Ang, Kyle Sunden,:
    - Martin Raspaud, Mathias Hauser, Mattia Almansi, Maximilian Roos, András Gunyhó, Michael Niklas, Richard Kleijn, Riulinchen,:
    - Tom Nicholas and Wiktor Kraśnicki.:
    - We welcome the following new contributors to Xarray!: Alexander Fischer, Amrest Chinkamol, Darsh Ranjan, Gianfranco Costamagna, Gregorio L. Trevisan,:
    - Kian-Meng Ang, Riulinchen and Wiktor Kraśnicki.:
    - New Features:
    - Added the :py:meth:`Coordinates.assign` method that can be used to combine
      different collections of coordinates prior to assign them to a Dataset or
      DataArray (:pull:`8102`) at once.
      By `Benoît Bovy <https://github.com/benbovy>`_.
    - Provide `preferred_chunks` for data read from netcdf files (:issue:`1440`, :pull:`7948`).
      By `Martin Raspaud <https://github.com/mraspaud>`_.
    - Added `on_missing_core_dims` to :py:meth:`apply_ufunc` to allow for copying or
      dropping a :py:class:`Dataset`'s variables with missing core dimensions (:pull:`8138`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Breaking changes:
    - The :py:class:`Coordinates` constructor now creates a (pandas) index by
      default for each dimension coordinate. To keep the previous behavior (no index
      created), pass an empty dictionary to ``indexes``. The constructor now also
      extracts and add the indexes from another :py:class:`Coordinates` object
      passed via ``coords`` (:pull:`8107`).
      By `Benoît Bovy <https://github.com/benbovy>`_.
    - Static typing of ``xlim`` and ``ylim`` arguments in plotting functions now must
      be ``tuple[float, float]`` to align with matplotlib requirements. (:issue:`7802`, :pull:`8030`).
      By `Michael Niklas <https://github.com/headtr1ck>`_.
    - Deprecations:
    - Deprecate passing a :py:class:`pandas.MultiIndex` object directly to the
      :py:class:`Dataset` and :py:class:`DataArray` constructors as well as to
      :py:meth:`Dataset.assign` and :py:meth:`Dataset.assign_coords`.
      A new Xarray :py:class:`Coordinates` object has to be created first using
      :py:meth:`Coordinates.from_pandas_multiindex` (:pull:`8094`).
      By `Benoît Bovy <https://github.com/benbovy>`_.
    - Bug fixes:
    - Improved static typing of reduction methods (:pull:`6746`).
      By `Richard Kleijn <https://github.com/rhkleijn>`_.
    - Fix bug where empty attrs would generate inconsistent tokens (:issue:`6970`, :pull:`8101`).
      By `Mattia Almansi <https://github.com/malmans2>`_.
    - Improved handling of multi-coordinate indexes when updating coordinates, including bug fixes
      (and improved warnings for deprecated features) for pandas multi-indexes (:pull:`8094`).
      By `Benoît Bovy <https://github.com/benbovy>`_.
    - Fixed a bug in :py:func:`merge` with ``compat='minimal'`` where the coordinate
      names were not updated properly internally (:issue:`7405`, :issue:`7588`,
      :pull:`8104`).
      By `Benoît Bovy <https://github.com/benbovy>`_.
    - Fix bug where :py:class:`DataArray` instances on the right-hand side
      of :py:meth:`DataArray.__setitem__` lose dimension names (:issue:`7030`, :pull:`8067`).
      By `Darsh Ranjan <https://github.com/dranjan>`_.
    - Return ``float64`` in presence of ``NaT`` in :py:class:`~core.accessor_dt.DatetimeAccessor` and
      special case ``NaT`` handling in :py:meth:`~core.accessor_dt.DatetimeAccessor.isocalendar`
      (:issue:`7928`, :pull:`8084`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.
    - Fix :py:meth:`~core.rolling.DatasetRolling.construct` with stride on Datasets without indexes.
      (:issue:`7021`, :pull:`7578`).
      By `Amrest Chinkamol <https://github.com/p4perf4ce>`_ and `Michael Niklas <https://github.com/headtr1ck>`_.
    - Calling plot with kwargs ``col``, ``row`` or ``hue`` no longer squeezes dimensions passed via these arguments
      (:issue:`7552`, :pull:`8174`).
      By `Wiktor Kraśnicki <https://github.com/wkrasnicki>`_.
    - Fixed a bug where casting from ``float`` to ``int64`` (undefined for ``NaN``) led to varying issues (:issue:`7817`, :issue:`7942`, :issue:`7790`, :issue:`6191`, :issue:`7096`,
      :issue:`1064`, :pull:`7827`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.
    - Fixed a bug where inaccurate ``coordinates`` silently failed to decode variable (:issue:`1809`, :pull:`8195`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_
    - ``.rolling_exp`` functions no longer mistakenly lose non-dimensioned coords
      (:issue:`6528`, :pull:`8114`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - In the event that user-provided datetime64/timedelta64 units and integer dtype encoding parameters conflict with each other, override the units to preserve an integer dtype for most faithful serialization to disk (:issue:`1064`, :pull:`8201`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.
    - Static typing of dunder ops methods (like :py:meth:`DataArray.__eq__`) has been fixed.
      Remaining issues are upstream problems (:issue:`7780`, :pull:`8204`).
      By `Michael Niklas <https://github.com/headtr1ck>`_.
    - Fix type annotation for ``center`` argument of plotting methods (like :py:meth:`xarray.plot.dataarray_plot.pcolormesh`) (:pull:`8261`).
      By `Pieter Eendebak <https://github.com/eendebakpt>`_.
    - Documentation:
    - Make documentation of :py:meth:`DataArray.where` clearer (:issue:`7767`, :pull:`7955`).
      By `Riulinchen <https://github.com/Riulinchen>`_.
    - Internal Changes:
    - Many error messages related to invalid dimensions or coordinates now always show the list of valid dims/coords (:pull:`8079`).
      By `András Gunyhó <https://github.com/mgunyho>`_.
    - Refactor of encoding and decoding times/timedeltas to preserve nanosecond resolution in arrays that contain missing values (:pull:`7827`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.
    - Transition ``.rolling_exp`` functions to use `.apply_ufunc` internally rather
      than `.reduce`, as the start of a broader effort to move non-reducing
      functions away from ```.reduce``, (:pull:`8114`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Test range of fill_value's in test_interpolate_pd_compat (:issue:`8146`, :pull:`8189`).
      By `Kai Mühlbauer <https://github.com/kmuehlbauer>`_.

    - Deprecations:
    - Following pandas, the `closed` parameters of :py:func:`cftime_range` and
      :py:func:`date_range` are deprecated in favor of the `inclusive` parameters,
      and will be removed in a future version of xarray (:issue:`6985`:,
      :pull:`7373`).
    - Bug fixes:
    - :py:func:`xarray.concat` can now concatenate variables present in some datasets but
      not others (:issue:`508`, :pull:`7400`).
    - Handle ``keep_attrs`` option in binary operators of :py:meth:`Dataset` (:issue:`7390`, :pull:`7391`).
    - Improve error message when using dask in :py:func:`apply_ufunc` with ``output_sizes`` not supplied. (:pull:`7509`)
    - :py:func:`xarray.Dataset.to_zarr` now drops variable encodings that have been added by xarray during reading
      a dataset. (:issue:`7129`, :pull:`7500`).
    - Documentation:
    - Mention the `flox package <https://flox.readthedocs.io>`_ in GroupBy documentation and docstrings.

    - Avoid in-memory broadcasting when converting to a dask dataframe
      using ``.to_dask_dataframe.`` (:issue:`6811`, :pull:`7472`).
    - Accessing the property ``.nbytes`` of a DataArray, or Variable no longer
      accidentally triggers loading the variable into memory.
    - Allow numpy-only objects in :py:func:`where` when ``keep_attrs=True`` (:issue:`7362`, :pull:`7364`).
    - add a ``keep_attrs`` parameter to :py:meth:`Dataset.pad`, :py:meth:`DataArray.pad`,
      and :py:meth:`Variable.pad` (:pull:`7267`).

  - Update to 2022.12.0
    * This release includes a number of bug fixes and experimental
      support for Zarr V3.
    [#]# New Features
    * Enable using offset and origin arguments in
      DataArray.resample() and Dataset.resample() (GH7266, PR7284).
    * Add experimental support for Zarr’s in-progress V3
      specification. (PR6475).
    [#]# Breaking changes
    * The minimum versions of some dependencies were changed
      (PR7300):
    [#]# Deprecations
    * The PyNIO backend has been deprecated (GH4491, PR7301).
    [#]# Bug fixes
    * Fix handling of coordinate attributes in where(). (GH7220,
      PR7229)
    * Import nc_time_axis when needed (GH7275, PR7276).
    * Fix static typing of xr.polyval() (GH7312, PR7315).
    * Fix multiple reads on fsspec S3 files by resetting file pointer
      to 0 when reading file streams (GH6813, PR7304).
    * Fix Dataset.assign_coords() resetting all dimension coordinates
      to default (pandas) index (GH7346, PR7347).
* Tue Nov 22 2022 Ben Greiner <code@bnavigator.de>
  - Update to 2022.11.0
    * This release brings a number of bugfixes and documentation
      improvements. Both text and HTML reprs now have a new "Indexes"
      section, which we expect will help with development of new
      Index objects. This release also features more support for the
      Python Array API.
    [#]# New Features
    * Add static typing to plot accessors (GH6949, PR7052). By
      Michael Niklas.
    * Display the indexes in a new section of the text and HTML reprs
      (PR6795, PR7183, PR7185) By Justus Magin and Benoît Bovy.
    * Added methods DataArrayGroupBy.cumprod() and
      DatasetGroupBy.cumprod(). (PR5816) By Patrick Naylor
    [#]# Breaking changes
    * repr(ds) may not show the same result because it doesn’t load
      small, lazy data anymore. Use ds.head().load() when wanting to
      see just a sample of the data. (GH6722, PR7203). By Jimmy
      Westling.
    * Many arguments of plotmethods have been made keyword-only.
    * xarray.plot.plot module renamed to xarray.plot.dataarray_plot
      to prevent shadowing of the plot method. (GH6949, PR7052). By
      Michael Niklas.
    [#]# Deprecations
    * Positional arguments for all plot methods have been deprecated
      (GH6949, PR7052). By Michael Niklas.
    * xarray.plot.FacetGrid.axes has been renamed to
      xarray.plot.FacetGrid.axs because it’s not clear if axes refers
      to single or multiple Axes instances. This aligns with
      matplotlib.pyplot.subplots. (PR7194) By Jimmy Westling.
    [#]# Bug fixes
    * Explicitly opening a file multiple times (e.g., after modifying
      it on disk) now reopens the file from scratch for h5netcdf and
      scipy netCDF backends, rather than reusing a cached version
      (GH4240, GH4862). By Stephan Hoyer.
    * Fixed bug where Dataset.coarsen.construct() would demote
      non-dimension coordinates to variables. (PR7233) By Tom
      Nicholas.
    * Raise a TypeError when trying to plot empty data (GH7156,
      PR7228). By Michael Niklas.
    [#]# Internal Changes
    * Doctests fail on any warnings (PR7166) By Maximilian Roos.
    * Improve import time by lazy loading dask.distributed (:pull:
      7172).
    * Explicitly specify longdouble=False in cftime.date2num() when
      encoding times to preserve existing behavior and prevent future
      errors when it is eventually set to True by default in cftime
      (PR7171). By Spencer Clark.
    * Improved import time by lazily importing backend modules,
      matplotlib, dask.array and flox. (GH6726, PR7179) By Michael
      Niklas.
    * Emit a warning under the development version of pandas when we
      convert non-nanosecond precision datetime or timedelta values
      to nanosecond precision. This was required in the past, because
      pandas previously was not compatible with non-nanosecond
      precision values. However pandas is currently working towards
      removing this restriction. When things stabilize in pandas we
      will likely consider relaxing this behavior in xarray as well
      (GH7175, PR7201). By Spencer Clark.

    * update line numbers in patches
    * changed README.rst->README.md
  - update to version 2022.6.0:
    * This release brings a number of bug fixes and improvements, most
      notably a major internal refactor of the indexing functionality,
      the use of flox in groupby operations, and experimental support
      for the new Python Array API standard. It also stops testing
      support for the abandoned PyNIO.
    * Much effort has been made to preserve backwards compatibility as
      part of the indexing refactor. We are aware of one unfixed issue.
    * New Features
      + Add Dataset.dtypes, core.coordinates.DatasetCoordinates.dtypes,
      core.coordinates.DataArrayCoordinates.dtypes properties: Mapping
      from variable names to dtypes. (PR6706) By Michael Niklas.
      + Initial typing support for groupby(), rolling(), rolling_exp(),
      coarsen(), weighted(), resample(), (PR6702) By Michael Niklas.
      + Experimental support for wrapping any array type that conforms
      to the python array api standard. (PR6804) By Tom White.
    * Bug fixes
      + save_mfdataset() now passes **kwargs on to Dataset.to_netcdf(),
      allowing the encoding and unlimited_dims options with
      save_mfdataset(). (GH6684) By Travis A. O’Brien.
      + Fix backend support of pydap versions <3.3.0 (GH6648,
      PR6656). By Hauke Schulz.
      + Dataset.where() with drop=True now behaves correctly with mixed
      dimensions. (GH6227, PR6690) By Michael Niklas.
      + Accommodate newly raised OutOfBoundsTimedelta error in the
      development version of pandas when decoding times outside the
      range that can be represented with nanosecond-precision values
      (GH6716, PR6717). By Spencer Clark.
      + open_dataset() with dask and ~ in the path now resolves the home
      directory instead of raising an error. (GH6707, PR6710) By
      Michael Niklas.
      + DataArrayRolling.__iter__() with center=True now works
      correctly. (GH6739, PR6744) By Michael Niklas.
    * Internal Changes
      + xarray.core.groupby, xarray.core.rolling,
      xarray.core.rolling_exp, xarray.core.weighted and
      xarray.core.resample modules are no longer imported by
      default. (PR6702)
  - changes from version 2022.06.0rc0:
    * This pre-release brings a number of bug fixes and improvements,
      most notably a major internal refactor of the indexing
      functionality and the use of flox in groupby operations. It also
      stops testing support for the abandoned PyNIO.
    * Known Regressions
      + reset_coords(drop=True) does not create indexes (GH6607)
    * New Features
      + The zarr backend is now able to read NCZarr. By Mattia Almansi.
      + Add a weighted quantile method to DatasetWeighted and
      DataArrayWeighted (PR6059). By Christian Jauvin and David Huard.
      + Add a create_index=True parameter to Dataset.stack() and
      DataArray.stack() so that the creation of multi-indexes is
      optional (PR5692). By Benoît Bovy.
      + Multi-index levels are now accessible through their own, regular
      coordinates instead of virtual coordinates (PR5692). By Benoît
      Bovy.
      + Add a display_values_threshold option to control the total
      number of array elements which trigger summarization rather than
      full repr in (numpy) array detailed views of the html repr
      (PR6400). By Benoît Bovy.
      + Allow passing chunks in kwargs form to Dataset.chunk(),
      DataArray.chunk(), and Variable.chunk(). (PR6471) By Tom
      Nicholas.
      + Add core.groupby.DatasetGroupBy.cumsum() and
      core.groupby.DataArrayGroupBy.cumsum(). By Vladislav Skripniuk
      and Deepak Cherian. (PR3147, PR6525, GH3141)

      include encoding attributes. (PR6635) By Joe Hamman.
      + Upload development versions to TestPyPI. By Justus Magin.
    * Breaking changes
      + PyNIO support is now untested.
      + The Dataset and DataArray rename" methods do not implicitly add
      or drop indexes. (PR5692). By Benoît Bovy.
      + Many arguments like keep_attrs, axis, and skipna are now keyword
      only for all reduction operations like .mean. By Deepak Cherian,
      Jimmy Westling.
      + Xarray’s ufuncs have been removed, now that they can be replaced
      by numpy’s ufuncs in all supported versions of numpy. By
      Maximilian Roos.
      + xr.polyval() now uses the coord argument directly instead of its
      index coordinate. (PR6548) By Michael Niklas.
    * Bug fixes
      + Dataset.to_zarr() now allows to write all attribute types
      supported by zarr-python. By Mattia Almansi.
      + Set skipna=None for all quantile methods
      (e.g. Dataset.quantile()) and ensure it skips missing values for
      float dtypes (consistent with other methods). This should not
      change the behavior (PR6303). By Mathias Hauser.
      + Many bugs fixed by the explicit indexes refactor, mainly related
      to multi-index (virtual) coordinates. See the corresponding
      pull-request on GitHub for more details. (PR5692). By Benoît
      Bovy.
      + Fixed “unhashable type” error trying to read NetCDF file with
      variable having its ‘units’ attribute not str

      + Omit warning about specified dask chunks separating chunks on
      disk when the underlying array is empty (e.g., because of an
      empty dimension) (GH6401). By Joseph K Aicher.
      + Fixed the poor html repr performance on large multi-indexes
      (PR6400). By Benoît Bovy.
      + Allow fancy indexing of duck dask arrays along multiple
      dimensions. (PR6414) By Justus Magin.
      + In the API for backends, support dimensions that express their
      preferred chunk sizes as a tuple of integers. (GH6333, PR6334)
      By Stan West.
      + Fix bug in where() when passing non-xarray objects with
      keep_attrs=True. (GH6444, PR6461) By Sam Levang.
      + Allow passing both other and drop=True arguments to
      DataArray.where() and Dataset.where() (PR6466, PR6467). By

    * Documentation
      + Revise the documentation for developers on specifying a
      backend’s preferred chunk sizes. In particular, correct the
      syntax and replace lists with tuples in the examples. (GH6333,
      PR6334) By Stan West.
      + Mention that DataArray.rename() can rename coordinates. (GH5458,
      PR6665) By Michael Niklas.
      + Added examples to Dataset.thin() and DataArray.thin() By Emma
      Marshall.
    * Performance
      + GroupBy binary operations are now vectorized. Previously this
      involved looping over all groups. (GH5804, PR6160) By Deepak
      Cherian.
      + Substantially improved GroupBy operations using flox. This is
      auto-enabled when flox is installed. Use
      xr.set_options(use_flox=False) to use the old
      algorithm. (GH4473, GH4498, GH659, GH2237, PR271). By Deepak
      Cherian, Anderson Banihirwe, Jimmy Westling.
    * Internal Changes
      + Many internal changes due to the explicit indexes refactor. See
      the corresponding pull-request on GitHub for more
      details. (PR5692). By Benoît Bovy.

    - Allow passing a dictionary as coords to a :py:class:`DataArray` (:issue:`5527`,
      reverts :pull:`1539`, which had deprecated this due to python's inconsistent ordering in earlier versions).
      By `Sander van Rijn <https://github.com/sjvrijn>`_.
    - Added :py:meth:`Dataset.coarsen.construct`, :py:meth:`DataArray.coarsen.construct` (:issue:`5454`, :pull:`5475`).
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Xarray now uses consolidated metadata by default when writing and reading Zarr
      stores (:issue:`5251`).

    - New top-level function :py:func:`unify_chunks`.
      By `Mattia Almansi <https://github.com/malmans2>`_.
    - Allow assigning values to a subset of a dataset using positional or label-based
      indexing (:issue:`3015`, :pull:`5362`).
      By `Matthias Göbel <https://github.com/matzegoebel>`_.
    - Attempting to reduce a weighted object over missing dimensions now raises an error (:pull:`5362`).
      By `Mattia Almansi <https://github.com/malmans2>`_.
    - Add ``.sum`` to :py:meth:`~xarray.DataArray.rolling_exp` and
      :py:meth:`~xarray.Dataset.rolling_exp` for exponentially weighted rolling
      sums. These require numbagg 0.2.1;
      (:pull:`5178`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - :py:func:`xarray.cov` and :py:func:`xarray.corr` now lazily check for missing
      values if inputs are dask arrays (:issue:`4804`, :pull:`5284`).
      By `Andrew Williams <https://github.com/AndrewWilliams3142>`_.
    - Attempting to ``concat`` list of elements that are not all ``Dataset`` or all ``DataArray`` now raises an error (:issue:`5051`, :pull:`5425`).
      By `Thomas Hirtz <https://github.com/thomashirtz>`_.

      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - Breaking changes:
    - The default ``mode`` for :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` when ``region`` is set
      has changed to the new ``mode="r+"``, which only allows for overriding
      pre-existing array values. This is a safer default than the prior ``mode="a"``,
      and allows for higher performance writes (:pull:`5252`).
      By `Stephan Hoyer <https://github.com/shoyer>`_.
    - The main parameter to :py:func:`combine_by_coords` is renamed to `data_objects` instead
      of `datasets` so anyone calling this method using a named parameter will need to update
      the name accordingly (:issue:`3248`, :pull:`4696`).
      By `Augustus Ijams <https://github.com/aijams>`_.

      :py:class:`CFTimeIndex` and upcoming pandas version 1.3.0 (:issue:`5356`,
      :pull:`5359`).
      By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Fix 1-level multi-index incorrectly converted to single index (:issue:`5384`,
      :pull:`5385`).
      By `Benoit Bovy <https://github.com/benbovy>`_.

    - Publish test results & timings on each PR.
      (:pull:`5537`)
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Explicit indexes refactor: add a ``xarray.Index.query()`` method in which
      one may eventually provide a custom implementation of label-based data
      selection (not ready yet for public use). Also refactor the internal,
      pandas-specific implementation into ``PandasIndex.query()`` and
      ``PandasMultiIndex.query()`` (:pull:`5322`).

      and merging datasets and dataarrays (:pull:`4902`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Add :py:meth:`Dataset.to_pandas` (:pull:`5247`)
      By `Giacomo Caria <https://github.com/gcaria>`_.
    - Add :py:meth:`DataArray.plot.surface` which wraps matplotlib's `plot_surface` to make
      surface plots (:issue:`2235` :issue:`5084` :pull:`5101`).
      By `John Omotani <https://github.com/johnomotani>`_.
    - Allow passing multiple arrays to :py:meth:`Dataset.__setitem__` (:pull:`5216`).
      By `Giacomo Caria <https://github.com/gcaria>`_.
    - Add 'cumulative' option to :py:meth:`Dataset.integrate` and
      :py:meth:`DataArray.integrate` so that result is a cumulative integral, like
      :py:func:`scipy.integrate.cumulative_trapezoidal` (:pull:`5153`).
      By `John Omotani <https://github.com/johnomotani>`_.
    - Add ``safe_chunks`` option to :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` which allows overriding
      checks made to ensure Dask and Zarr chunk compatibility (:issue:`5056`).
      By `Ryan Abernathey <https://github.com/rabernat>`_
    - Add :py:meth:`Dataset.query` and :py:meth:`DataArray.query` which enable indexing
      of datasets and data arrays by evaluating query expressions against the values of the
      data variables (:pull:`4984`).

    - Many of the arguments for the :py:attr:`DataArray.str` methods now support
      providing an array-like input. In this case, the array provided to the
      arguments is broadcast against the original array and applied elementwise.
    - :py:attr:`DataArray.str` now supports ``+``, ``*``, and ``%`` operators. These
      behave the same as they do for :py:class:`str`, except that they follow
      array broadcasting rules.
    - A large number of new :py:attr:`DataArray.str` methods were implemented,
      :py:meth:`DataArray.str.casefold`, :py:meth:`DataArray.str.cat`,
      :py:meth:`DataArray.str.extract`, :py:meth:`DataArray.str.extractall`,
      :py:meth:`DataArray.str.findall`, :py:meth:`DataArray.str.format`,

      :py:meth:`DataArray.str.rsplit`, and  :py:meth:`DataArray.str.split`.
      A number of these methods allow for splitting or joining the strings in an
      array. (:issue:`4622`)
      By `Todd Jennings <https://github.com/toddrjen>`_
    - Thanks to the new pluggable backend infrastructure external packages may now
      use the ``xarray.backends`` entry point to register additional engines to be used in
      :py:func:`open_dataset`, see the documentation in :ref:`add_a_backend`
      (:issue:`4309`, :issue:`4803`, :pull:`4989`, :pull:`4810` and many others).
      The backend refactor has been sponsored with the "Essential Open Source Software for Science"
      grant from the `Chan Zuckerberg Initiative <https://chanzuckerberg.com>`_ and
      developed by `B-Open <https://www.bopen.eu>`_.
      By `Aureliana Barghini <https://github.com/aurghs>`_ and `Alessandro Amici <https://github.com/alexamici>`_.

      :py:class:`~core.groupby.DataArrayGroupBy`, inspired by pandas'
      :py:meth:`~pandas.core.groupby.GroupBy.get_group`.
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Switch the tutorial functions to use `pooch <https://github.com/fatiando/pooch>`_
      (which is now a optional dependency) and add :py:func:`tutorial.open_rasterio` as a
      way to open example rasterio files (:issue:`3986`, :pull:`4102`, :pull:`5074`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Add typing information to unary and binary arithmetic operators operating on
      :py:class:`Dataset`, :py:class:`DataArray`, :py:class:`Variable`,
      :py:class:`~core.groupby.DatasetGroupBy` or
      :py:class:`~core.groupby.DataArrayGroupBy` (:pull:`4904`).
      By `Richard Kleijn <https://github.com/rhkleijn>`_.
    - Add a ``combine_attrs`` parameter to :py:func:`open_mfdataset` (:pull:`4971`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.

      :py:meth:`DataArray.clip` & :py:meth:`Dataset.clip`; these methods now use
      :py:func:`xarray.apply_ufunc`; (:pull:`5184`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Disable the `cfgrib` backend if the `eccodes` library is not installed (:pull:`5083`).

      By `Sam Levang <https://github.com/slevang>`_.
    - Add options to control expand/collapse of sections in display of Dataset and
      DataArray. The function :py:func:`set_options` now takes keyword aguments
      ``display_expand_attrs``, ``display_expand_coords``, ``display_expand_data``,
      ``display_expand_data_vars``, all of which can be one of ``True`` to always
      expand, ``False`` to always collapse, or ``default`` to expand unless over a
      pre-defined limit (:pull:`5126`).
      By `Tom White <https://github.com/tomwhite>`_.
    - Significant speedups in :py:meth:`Dataset.interp` and :py:meth:`DataArray.interp`.
      (:issue:`4739`, :pull:`4740`).

      `combine='by_coords'` is specified, which should never have been possible (as
      :py:func:`xarray.combine_by_coords` has no `concat_dim` argument to pass to).
      Also removes unneeded internal reordering of datasets in
      :py:func:`xarray.open_mfdataset` when `combine='by_coords'` is specified.
      Fixes (:issue:`5230`).
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - Implement ``__setitem__`` for ``xarray.core.indexing.DaskIndexingAdapter`` if
      dask version supports item assignment. (:issue:`5171`, :pull:`5174`)
      By `Tammas Loughran <https://github.com/tammasloughran>`_.
    - Breaking changes:
    - The minimum versions of some dependencies were changed:
      ============ ====== ====
      Package      Old    New
      ============ ====== ====
      boto3        1.12   1.13
      cftime       1.0    1.1
      dask         2.11   2.15
      distributed  2.11   2.15
      matplotlib   3.1    3.2
      numba        0.48   0.49
      ============ ====== ====
    - :py:func:`open_dataset` and :py:func:`open_dataarray` now accept only the first argument
      as positional, all others need to be passed are keyword arguments. This is part of the
      refactor to support external backends (:issue:`4309`, :pull:`4989`).
      By `Alessandro Amici <https://github.com/alexamici>`_.
    - Functions that are identities for 0d data return the unchanged data
      if axis is empty. This ensures that Datasets where some variables do
      not have the averaged dimensions are not accidentially changed
      (:issue:`4885`, :pull:`5207`).
      By `David Schwörer <https://github.com/dschwoerer>`_.
    - :py:attr:`DataArray.coarsen` and :py:attr:`Dataset.coarsen` no longer support passing ``keep_attrs``
      via its constructor. Pass ``keep_attrs`` via the applied function, i.e. use
      ``ds.coarsen(...).mean(keep_attrs=False)`` instead of ``ds.coarsen(..., keep_attrs=False).mean()``.
      Further, coarsen now keeps attributes per default (:pull:`5227`).
      By `Mathias Hauser <https://github.com/mathause>`_.
    - switch the default of the :py:func:`merge` ``combine_attrs`` parameter to
      ``"override"``. This will keep the current behavior for merging the ``attrs`` of
      variables but stop dropping the ``attrs`` of the main objects (:pull:`4902`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Deprecations:
    - Warn when passing `concat_dim` to :py:func:`xarray.open_mfdataset` when
      `combine='by_coords'` is specified, which should never have been possible (as
      :py:func:`xarray.combine_by_coords` has no `concat_dim` argument to pass to).
      Also removes unneeded internal reordering of datasets in
      :py:func:`xarray.open_mfdataset` when `combine='by_coords'` is specified.
      Fixes (:issue:`5230`), via (:pull:`5231`, :pull:`5255`).
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - The `lock` keyword argument to :py:func:`open_dataset` and :py:func:`open_dataarray` is now
      a backend specific option. It will give a warning if passed to a backend that doesn't support it
      instead of being silently ignored. From the next version it will raise an error.
      This is part of the refactor to support external backends (:issue:`5073`).
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_ and `Alessandro Amici <https://github.com/alexamici>`_.
    - Bug fixes:
    - Properly support :py:meth:`DataArray.ffill`, :py:meth:`DataArray.bfill`, :py:meth:`Dataset.ffill`, :py:meth:`Dataset.bfill` along chunked dimensions.
      (:issue:`2699`).
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Fix 2d plot failure for certain combinations of dimensions when `x` is 1d and `y` is
      2d (:issue:`5097`, :pull:`5099`).
      By `John Omotani <https://github.com/johnomotani>`_.
    - Ensure standard calendar times encoded with large values (i.e. greater than
      approximately 292 years), can be decoded correctly without silently overflowing
      (:pull:`5050`).  This was a regression in xarray 0.17.0.
      By `Zeb Nicholls <https://github.com/znicholls>`_.
    - Added support for `numpy.bool_` attributes in roundtrips using `h5netcdf` engine with `invalid_netcdf=True` [which casts `bool`s to `numpy.bool_`] (:issue:`4981`, :pull:`4986`).
      By `Victor Negîrneac <https://github.com/caenrigen>`_.
    - Don't allow passing ``axis`` to :py:meth:`Dataset.reduce` methods (:issue:`3510`, :pull:`4940`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Decode values as signed if attribute `_Unsigned = "false"` (:issue:`4954`)
      By `Tobias Kölling <https://github.com/d70-t>`_.
    - Keep coords attributes when interpolating when the indexer is not a Variable. (:issue:`4239`, :issue:`4839` :pull:`5031`)
      By `Jimmy Westling <https://github.com/illviljan>`_.
    - Ensure standard calendar dates encoded with a calendar attribute with some or
      all uppercase letters can be decoded or encoded to or from
      ``np.datetime64[ns]`` dates with or without ``cftime`` installed
      (:issue:`5093`, :pull:`5180`).  By `Spencer Clark
      <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Warn on passing ``keep_attrs`` to ``resample`` and ``rolling_exp`` as they are ignored, pass ``keep_attrs``
      to the applied function instead (:pull:`5265`).  By `Mathias Hauser <https://github.com/mathause>`_.
      (:issue:`5093`, :pull:`5180`).
      By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Documentation:
    - New section on :ref:`add_a_backend` in the "Internals" chapter aimed to backend developers
      (:issue:`4803`, :pull:`4810`).
      By `Aureliana Barghini <https://github.com/aurghs>`_.
    - Add :py:meth:`Dataset.polyfit` and :py:meth:`DataArray.polyfit` under "See also" in

* Sat Feb 27 2021 Sebastian Wagner <sebix+novell.com@sebix.at>
  - update to version 0.17.0:
    - This release brings a few important performance improvements, a wide range of:
    - usability upgrades, lots of bug fixes, and some new features. These include:
    - better ``cftime`` support, a new quiver plot, better ``unstack`` performance,:
    - more efficient memory use in rolling operations, and some python packaging:
    - improvements. We also have a few documentation improvements (and more planned!).:
    - Many thanks to the 36 contributors to this release: Alessandro Amici, Anderson:

    - alexamici, aurghs, crusaderky, dcherian, ghislainp, keewis, rhkleijn:
    - Breaking changes:
    - xarray no longer supports python 3.6
      The minimum version policy was changed to also apply to projects with irregular
      releases. As a result, the minimum versions of some dependencies have changed:
      ============ ====== ====
      Package      Old    New
      ============ ====== ====
      Python       3.6    3.7
      setuptools   38.4   40.4
      numpy        1.15   1.17
      pandas       0.25   1.0

      seaborn      0.9    0.10
      zarr         2.3    2.4
      ============ ====== ====
      (:issue:`4688`, :pull:`4720`, :pull:`4907`, :pull:`4942`)
    - As a result of :pull:`4684` the default units encoding for
      datetime-like values (``np.datetime64[ns]`` or ``cftime.datetime``) will now
      always be set such that ``int64`` values can be used.  In the past, no units
      finer than "seconds" were chosen, which would sometimes mean that ``float64``
      values were required, which would lead to inaccurate I/O round-trips.
    - Variables referred to in attributes like ``bounds`` and ``grid_mapping``
      can be set as coordinate variables. These attributes are moved to
      :py:attr:`DataArray.encoding` from :py:attr:`DataArray.attrs`. This behaviour
      is controlled by the ``decode_coords`` kwarg to :py:func:`open_dataset` and
      :py:func:`open_mfdataset`.  The full list of decoded attributes is in
      :ref:`weather-climate` (:pull:`2844`, :issue:`3689`)
    - As a result of :pull:`4911` the output from calling :py:meth:`DataArray.sum`
      or :py:meth:`DataArray.prod` on an integer array with ``skipna=True`` and a
      non-None value for ``min_count`` will now be a float array rather than an
      integer array.
    - Deprecations:
    - ``dim`` argument to :py:meth:`DataArray.integrate` is being deprecated in
      favour of a ``coord`` argument, for consistency with :py:meth:`Dataset.integrate`.
      For now using ``dim`` issues a ``FutureWarning``. It will be removed in
      version 0.19.0 (:pull:`3993`).
      By `Tom Nicholas <https://github.com/TomNicholas>`_.
    - Deprecated ``autoclose`` kwargs from :py:func:`open_dataset` are removed (:pull:`4725`).
      By `Aureliana Barghini <https://github.com/aurghs>`_.
    - the return value of :py:meth:`Dataset.update` is being deprecated to make it work more
      like :py:meth:`dict.update`. It will be removed in version 0.19.0 (:pull:`4932`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - New Features:
    - :py:meth:`~xarray.cftime_range` and :py:meth:`DataArray.resample` now support
      millisecond (``"L"`` or ``"ms"``) and microsecond (``"U"`` or ``"us"``) frequencies
      for ``cftime.datetime`` coordinates (:issue:`4097`, :pull:`4758`).
      By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Significantly higher ``unstack`` performance on numpy-backed arrays which
      contain missing values; 8x faster than previous versions in our benchmark, and
      now 2x faster than pandas (:pull:`4746`).
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Add :py:meth:`Dataset.plot.quiver` for quiver plots with :py:class:`Dataset` variables.
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Add ``"drop_conflicts"`` to the strategies supported by the ``combine_attrs`` kwarg
      (:issue:`4749`, :pull:`4827`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Allow installing from git archives (:pull:`4897`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - :py:class:`DataArrayCoarsen` and :py:class:`DatasetCoarsen` now implement a
      ``reduce`` method, enabling coarsening operations with custom reduction
      functions (:issue:`3741`, :pull:`4939`).  By `Spencer Clark
      <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - Most rolling operations use significantly less memory. (:issue:`4325`).
      By `Deepak Cherian <https://github.com/dcherian>`_.
    - Add :py:meth:`Dataset.drop_isel` and :py:meth:`DataArray.drop_isel`
      (:issue:`4658`, :pull:`4819`).
      By `Daniel Mesejo <https://github.com/mesejo>`_.
    - Xarray now leverages updates as of cftime version 1.4.1, which enable exact I/O
      roundtripping of ``cftime.datetime`` objects (:pull:`4758`).
      By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.
    - :py:func:`open_dataset` and :py:func:`open_mfdataset` now accept ``fsspec`` URLs
      (including globs for the latter) for ``engine="zarr"``, and so allow reading from
      many remote and other file systems (:pull:`4461`)
      By `Martin Durant <https://github.com/martindurant>`_
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.swap_dims` & :py:meth:`Dataset.swap_dims` now accept dims
      in the form of kwargs as well as a dict, like most similar methods.
      By `Maximilian Roos <https://github.com/max-sixty>`_.
    - Bug fixes:
    - Use specific type checks in
      :py:func:`~xarray.core.variable.as_compatible_data` instead of blanket
      access to ``values`` attribute (:issue:`2097`)
      By `Yunus Sevinchan <https://github.com/blsqr>`_.
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.resample` and :py:meth:`Dataset.resample` do not trigger
      computations anymore if :py:meth:`Dataset.weighted` or
      :py:meth:`DataArray.weighted` are applied (:issue:`4625`, :pull:`4668`). By
      `Julius Busecke <https://github.com/jbusecke>`_.
    - :py:func:`merge` with ``combine_attrs='override'`` makes a copy of the attrs
      (:issue:`4627`).
    - By default, when possible, xarray will now always use values of
      type ``int64`` when encoding and decoding ``numpy.datetime64[ns]`` datetimes.  This
      ensures that maximum precision and accuracy are maintained in the round-tripping
      process (:issue:`4045`, :pull:`4684`). It also enables encoding and decoding standard
      calendar dates with time units of nanoseconds (:pull:`4400`).
      By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_ and `Mark Harfouche
      <http://github.com/hmaarrfk>`_.
    - :py:meth:`DataArray.astype`, :py:meth:`Dataset.astype` and :py:meth:`Variable.astype` support
      the ``order`` and ``subok`` parameters again. This fixes a regression introduced in version 0.16.1
      (:issue:`4644`, :pull:`4683`).
      By `Richard Kleijn <https://github.com/rhkleijn>`_ .
    - Remove dictionary unpacking when using ``.loc`` to avoid collision with ``.sel`` parameters (:pull:`4695`).
      By `Anderson Banihirwe <https://github.com/andersy005>`_.
    - Fix the legend created by :py:meth:`Dataset.plot.scatter` (:issue:`4641`, :pull:`4723`).
      By `Justus Magin <https://github.com/keewis>`_.
    - Fix a crash in orthogonal indexing on geographic coordinates with ``engine='cfgrib'``
      (:issue:`4733` :pull:`4737`).
      By `Alessandro Amici <https://github.com/alexamici>`_.
    - Coordinates with dtype ``str`` or ``bytes`` now retain their dtype on many operations,
      e.g. ``reindex``, ``align``, ``concat``, ``assign``, previously they were cast to an object dtype
      (:issue:`2658` and :issue:`4543`).
      By `Mathias Hauser <https://github.com/mathause>`_.
    - Limit number of data rows when printing large datasets. (:issue:`4736`, :pull:`4750`).
      By `Jimmy Westling <https://github.com/illviljan>`_.
    - Add ``missing_dims`` parameter to transpose (:issue:`4647`, :pull:`4767`).
      By `Daniel Mesejo <https://github.com/mesejo>`_.

      as a list of length one (:issue:`4631`) by `Mathias Hauser <https://github.com/mathause>`_.
    - Expand user directory paths (e.g. ``~/``) in :py:func:`open_mfdataset` and
      :py:meth:`Dataset.to_zarr` (:issue:`4783`, :pull:`4795`).
      By `Julien Seguinot <https://github.com/juseg>`_.
    - Raise DeprecationWarning when trying to typecast a tuple containing a :py:class:`DataArray`.
      User now prompted to first call `.data` on it (:issue:`4483`).
      By `Chun Ho Chow <https://github.com/chunhochow>`_.
    - Ensure that :py:meth:`Dataset.interp` raises ``ValueError`` when interpolating
      outside coordinate range and ``bounds_error=True`` (:issue:`4854`,
      :pull:`4855`).
      By `Leif Denby <https://github.com/leifdenby>`_.
    - Fix time encoding bug associated with using cftime versions greater than
      1.4.0 with xarray (:issue:`4870`, :pull:`4871`). By `Spencer Clark <https://github.com/spencerkclark>`_.

      arrays when called with a ``min_count`` parameter (:issue:`4898`, :pull:`4911`).
      By `Blair Bonnett <https://github.com/bcbnz>`_.
    - Fix bug preventing the ``min_count`` parameter to :py:meth:`DataArray.sum` and
      :py:meth:`DataArray.prod` working correctly when calculating over all axes of
