10 daysFixed #36022 -- Renamed django-admin to django.Ryan Hiebert
This change implements DEP 16: to rename the django-admin command to django. django-admin is kept as an alias. Docs references to the "django-admin" command are updated to "django" or “The django command”. Renamed the `django-admin` Sphinx directive to `cmd`, and the `django-admin-option` directive to `cli-option`. Thanks Johannes Maron, Mike Edmunds, and Jacob Walls for reviews.
2026-10-26Fixed #37232 -- Added support for the HTTP QUERY method.Michiel W. Beijen
QUERY (RFC 10008) is a safe, idempotent method that carries the query in the request content rather than in the URI's query component. Treat it as safe throughout: exempt it from CSRF protection, evaluate request preconditions as for GET, accept it in require_safe(), and dispatch it from View. Query content is available as HttpRequest.body and is not parsed into HttpRequest.POST. Caching is left for a follow-up. Per RFC 10008 Section 2.7 the cache key for a QUERY request must incorporate the request content, which the cache middleware and cache_page() don't do, so they continue to ignore QUERY. Thanks Ben Atkinson, Jonathan Biemond, and Jacob Walls for reviews.
2026-10-14Fixed #37409 -- Removed ambiguous "Overview" link text from the docs home page.Natalia
The docs home page used "Overview" as the link text 15 times, the only duplicated link text on that page. A reader navigating by a list of links got identical entries with no indication of which section each belonged to. A sixteenth "Overview" comes from the main site's navbar and is outside this repository. Every one of those targets already has a distinct title of its own, which `docs/index.txt` was overriding with the generic word. Most of them now use it, via `:doc:` without an explicit title. Three would have repeated their group label, and are given a short unique title instead. Also retitled five of those documents so that the home page can use their own titles: two to sentence case, matching the rest, and three to drop a redundant "in Django" suffix.
2026-09-24Fixed #37177 -- Reduced per-middleware context switching under ASGI.Jacob Walls
Relying on MiddlewareMixin.__acall__() to handle async requests imposed per-middleware context switching, defeating BaseHandler's intent to transition only once per middleware chain. To minimize breaking changes, MiddlewareMixin's default value did not change: only the values on Django's own subclasses. Use cases where the prior behavior is preferable (in order to avoid pinning a thread per request) are fleshed out in docs. Thanks Mykhailo Havelia for the report.
