sbt 1.4.2
I’m happy to announce sbt 1.4.2 patch release is available. Full release note is here - https://github.com/sbt/sbt/releases/tag/v1.4.2
How to upgrade
Download the official sbt launcher from SDKMAN or download from https://github.com/sbt/sbt/releases/. This installer includes the sbtn
binary.
In addition, the sbt version used for your build is upgraded by putting the following in project/build.properties
:
sbt.version=1.4.2
This mechanism allows that sbt 1.4.2 is used only for the builds that you want.
