Notes

  • #12411: add a new late-local customization file.
  • News section: ok with the PR by Théo
  • Optional arguments for tactics (feature seems to be good for everyone). We might want a more uniform syntax to "unconfuse" with attributes. At least we need delimiters:
    • @tactic (opts) could be an option but would require two parsing rules per tactic
    • tactic [opts] is a parsing nightmare (what if tactic takes an optional constr list after?)
    • tactic #[opts] is maybe dangerous if users already have defined notations for #[ c ] in constrs.
    • tactic @[opts] looked more innocent to us (@ is already a keyword as well)
