This release includes a major refactor of the build pipeline thanks to Juho Teperi. This change along with some greatly simplified recompilation logic will mean much faster cold build times for larger projects (some users have already reported >10X).

This is a breaking change for existing tooling. You will need to upgrade lein-cljsbuild, lein-figwheel, and boot-cljs if you intend to adopt this version of ClojureScript. All the mentioned tools have already accounted for this change. Refer to the appropriate documentation for your tooling to determine which version number you should adopt.

Other interesting changes and fixes include newer Google Closure Compiler and Library dependencies, self hosting tweaks, a Google Closure modules (:modules compiler option) regression, improved warnings, and minor REPL enhancements.

As always feedback welcome!
