Xdebug 2.6.0beta1 is out!
This is the first beta release with support for PHP 7.2, which came out last month. This is not a final release, and it does have known issues, including a crash bug.
In addition to the changes in Xdebug 2.6.0alpha1, this beta release adds filter support for tracing, stack traces and code coverage. Preliminary tests shows that with the right filter this should speed up code coverage generated through PHPUnit/PHP Code Coverage significantly. This release also fixes a few bugs, and it includes configuration to run Xdebug's test suite automatically on Windows through AppVeyor. Please note, that Xdebug 2.6 does no longer support PHP 5.
The full list of changes can be found on the updates page.
This release does come with several unresolved issues, and not all features have been implemented yet. Xdebug 2.6.0 will be released in due course.
The source code can be found on the downloads page, and as usual, Xdebug is installable through PECL.
