Astro · withastro/astro · PR #17960 · merged into
main · Sep 2026
Improved two of Astro's built-in error messages. RedirectWithNoLocation had only a title and now explains what went wrong and how to fix it, and RewriteWithBodyUsed gained a hint showing the Astro.request.clone() pattern so the request can still be rewritten. The same text powers the error reference on docs.astro.build. Merged by Emanuele Stoppa.
Laravel Framework · laravel/framework · PR #61305 · merged into
13.x · Aug 2026
Fixed a crash in Laravel 13's new Illuminate\Image component: images created from a stream failed on the second read because the lazy loader re-read a stream that was already at its end. The loader now resolves once and shares its result across clones of the image, with regression tests covering the stream, clone, and URL cases. Merged by Taylor Otwell.
