Magento2 2.1.8 (community power)

En el día de ayer se hizo pública la nueva versión de Magento2: Magento Open Source (antes CE) 2.1.8.

Esta versión gana cierto carácter especial por tres motivos:

No es un parche de seguridad.
Se estiman unas 100 mejoras y/o arreglos.
Participación directa de la comunidad a través de PRs.

Dada la longitud del changelog, lo mejor es ir a la fuente changelog. Van a ver la cantidad de PR que fueron incluídos.

Como siempre, y cada vez con más gusto, actualizar no debería ser un problema si estamos usando Composer.

Los pasos para actualziar serían:

composer require magento/product-community-edition 2.1.8 --no-update

Y luego actualizamos (esperen a leer hasta el final del post)

composer update
