Synapse 1.76.0rc1 (2023-01-25)
==============================
Features
--------
- Update the default room version to [v10](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.5/rooms/v10/) ([MSC 3904](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3904)). Contributed by @FSG-Cat. ([\#14111](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14111))
- Adds a `set_displayname()` method to the module API for setting a user's display name. ([\#14629](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14629))
- Add a dedicated listener configuration for `health` endpoint. ([\#14747](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14747))
- Implement support for MSC3890: Remotely silence local notifications. ([\#14775](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14775))
- Implement experimental support for MSC3930: Push rules for (MSC3381) Polls. ([\#14787](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14787))
- Per [MSC3925](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3925), bundle the whole of the replacement with any edited events, and optionally inhibit server-side replacement. ([\#14811](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14811))
- Faster joins: always serve a partial join response to servers that request it with the stable query param. ([\#14839](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14839))
- Faster joins: allow non-lazy-loading ("eager") syncs to complete after a partial join by omitting partial state rooms until they become fully stated. ([\#14870](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14870))
- Faster joins: request partial joins by default. Admins can opt-out of this for the time being---see the upgrade notes. ([\#14905](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14905))
Bugfixes
--------
- Add index to improve performance of the `/timestamp_to_event` endpoint used for jumping to a specific date in the timeline of a room. ([\#14799](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14799))
- Fix a long-standing bug where Synapse would exhaust the stack when processing many federation requests where the remote homeserver has disconencted early. ([\#14812](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14812), [\#14842](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14842))
- Fix rare races when using workers. ([\#14820](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14820))
- Fix a bug introduced in Synapse 1.64.0 when using room version 10 with frozen events enabled. ([\#14864](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14864))
- Fix a long-standing bug where the `populate_room_stats` background job could fail on broken rooms. ([\#14873](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14873))
- Faster joins: Fix a bug in worker deployments where the room stats and user directory would not get updated when finishing a fast join until another event is sent or received. ([\#14874](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14874))
- Faster joins: Fix incompatibility with joins into restricted rooms where no local users have the ability to invite. ([\#14882](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14882))
- Fix a regression introduced in Synapse 1.69.0 which can result in database corruption when database migrations are interrupted on sqlite. ([\#14910](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14910))
