Geth v1.10.13 is a scheduled maintenance release. It introduces a few polishes, though nothing major. Fixes wise, it does address a few thorns that affect a small portion of our users.
New features:
Retrospectively enforce account nonces to be less than 2^64-1 (#23853).
Configurable genesis gas limit in dev mode via dev.gaslimit (#23686).
Sanitize history config fields in the GPO when using toml (#23886).
Add support for custom freezer paths in db inspect (#23946).
Create evm b11r to build and seal blocks from json (#23843).
Extend evm t8n to support signing unprotected txs (#23937).
Polish evm t8n to have more meaningful CLI flags (#23934).
Implement the 4byte tracer natively in Go (#23882, #23916).
Use faster freezer scanning when reiniting leveldb (#23612).
Expose the gasUsed field in the evm command (#23919).
Geth v1.10.12 is a scheduled maintenance release, but also contains some significant features!
The release enables the Arrow Glacier hard-fork, scheduled approximately for the 8th of December. The sole change is to postpone the difficulty-bomb until summer 2022, by which time hopefully The Merge will have happened.
The release also ships support for a new PoW testnet called Sepolia. This testnet was dreamed up during the merge interop in Athens and it's purpose is to replace Ropsten after the merge as the main cross client testnet. You can access it via geth --sepolia. Being a PoW testnet, it's possible to mine it for Ether to use as test funds.
Lastly, the release also contains a brand new call tracer implemented in Go, which should be significantly (2.5x) faster than the one currently used. You can use the new tracer via debug.traceTransaction("0xhash", {tracer: "callTracer"}). The original JavaScript tracer is still available for fallback purposes called callTracerLegacy. The latter will be dropped if nobody reports issues with the native one.
