Full Changelog: https://github.com/gorilla/csrf/compare/v1.7.1...v1.7.2

Notable Changes

• We've removed support for versions of Go prior to v1.7 - v1.6 was released over 3.5 years ago (@kisielk making me feel old!)
• As a result, we've also removed gorilla/context as a dependency, since Go 1.7+ has its own http.Request.Context() implementation
• Moved our CI to CircleCI - you can see the build dashboard here

gorilla/csrf defines a go.mod file and correctly defines a SemVer version (v1.5.1) to support versioning in upcoming releases of Go.

Uses the new request.Context from Go 1.7 for Go 1.7 automatically. Note that gorilla/context is incompatible with Go 1.7.

• With Go 1.7's net/http package growing support for context.Context as part of http.Request, gorilla/csrf now uses the context to pass CSRF tokens and other metadata alongside the request instead of gorilla/context.
• NOTE: There is a minor breaking change with UnsafeSkipCheck - it now returns a *http.Request. Existing applications will "fail closed" (i.e. CSRF will be enforced again). Since this was a relatively new feature (less than a week old) the impact of this should be very minor.

v1.3 includes an important security fix for users of Go 1.2 (Debian <=7, Ubuntu <=14.10, etc.). This would cause token comparison to fail: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/gorilla-web/G3aIFrm0LVI

CHANGELOG:

• [bugfix] Token comparison could fail on versions of Go < 1.3.
• [ci] Updated Travis to use matrix builds.

CHANGELOG:

• [feature] Custom field names are now passed to TemplateField implicitly.
• [feature] Expose an Option type for building functional options.
• [ci] Run go vet, gofmt and the race detector during tests

ADDENDUM:

Note that gorilla/csrf respects SemVer as defined at http://semver.org/ but will not make backward-incompatible changes unless a security fix requires it (which is extremely unlikely given the small API of the package!). "MINOR" versions as defined in SemVer will encapsulate additions to the API or resolving implicit behaviour, whereas "PATCH" versions will typically encapsulate documentation changes or clarifications.
