Full Changelog: v1.2.1...v1.3.0

• Updates all dependencies, and updates the Go runtime to 1.23.

• Adds port / PORT as a configurable value to change the listening port.

Security release

Includes dependency updates that fix CVE-2021-43565 and CVE-2022-27191.

Now with fewer environment conflicts

This release renames the env variable that holds the target hostname, as the old one, HOSTNAME, conflicted with standard unix conventions and would override whatever was set in the config file.

Twelve Factors

This release adds support for configuring synonym exclusively using environment variables and not just the YAML configuration file.

This should allow much greater deployment flexibility.

First

This is the initial release of synonym. This has been running in production for a while for BlackieOps without any fanfare.
