    ➕ Added

    • take_until1 combinator
    • more to_owned implementations
    • 0️⃣ fail: a parser that always fail, useful as default condition in other combinators
    • 📜 text to number parsers: in the character::streaming and character::complete modules, there are parsers named i8, u16, u32, u64, u128 and u8 ,u16, u32, u64, u128 that recognize decimal digits and directly convert to a number in the target size (checking for max int size)

    ✂ Removed

    • 🚚 now that function combinators are the main way to write parsers, the old macro combinators are confusing newcomers. THey have been removed
    • 🚚 the BitSlice input type from bitvec has been moved into the nom-bitvec crate. nom does not depend on bitvec now
    • 🚚 regex parsers have been moved into the nom-regex crate. nom does not depend on regex now
    • 📜 ErrorKind::PArseTo was not needed anymore

    🔄 Changed

    • 😌 relax trait bounds
    • 🐎 some performance fixes
    • split_at_position* functions should now be guaranteed panic free
    • 📜 the lexical-core crate used for float parsing has now been replaced with minimal-lexical: the new crate is faster to compile, faster to parse, and has no dependencies

    🛠 Fixed

    • infinite loop in escaped combinator
    • many_m_n now fails if min > max
