## 1.7.0 (Upcoming)
## 1.6.6 (December 16, 2020)
### FEATURES:
* **New command** `fmt` allows users to format existing HCL2 configuration
files into a canonical style. Please see [fmt command
docs](https://packer.io/docs/commands/fmt) for more details. [GH-10225]
[GH-10377]
* **New function** `env` allows users to set the default value of a variable to
the value of an environment variable. Please see [env function
docs](https://www.packer.io/docs/from-1.5/functions/contextual/env") for
more details. [GH-10240]
* **Future Scaffolding** This release contains a large number of no-op
refactoring changes. The Packer team at HashiCorp is preparing to split the
plugins and core to make it easier for our third party maintainers and
community members to release and maintain plugins, just like HashiCorp did
with the Terraform Core-Provider split. The Packer team is committed to
making sure that this split is seamless for our users and for our community
maintainers -- if you are a community maintainer, you may want to follow
along with some of the work by looking at the
[core-plugin-split github tag.](https://github.com/hashicorp/packer/pulls?q=is%3Apr+label%3Acore-plugin-split)
No one needs to do anything, yet, but we felt it was worth calling out all
the work that isn't making it into the changelog. We will be following up
with lots of documentation and communication in early 2021 with more
information.

work fine); the work to fix them is minimal and documented in GH-5810.
[GH-5810]

use `"ssh_interface": "private"`. A fixer has been written for this, which
can be invoked with `packer fix`. [GH-5876]

characters no longer need to be escaped.[GH-5376]
* provisioner/file: We've made destination semantics more consistent across the
various communicators. In general, if the destination is a directory, files
will be uploaded into the directory instead of failing. This mirrors the
behavior of `rsync`. There's a chance some users might be depending on the
previous buggy behavior, so it's worth ensuring your configuration is
correct. [GH-5426]

environment variables in the non-elevated provisioner has been fixed.

add `sriov_support` if you need that feature, and to ensure `ena_support`
is what you intended to be in your template. [GH-5284]

commands on the host after a build has completed for custom packaging or
publishing of your artifacts. [GH-2706]

processing. This allows you to extract artifacts from a packer builder and
use them with other post-processors like compress, docker, and Atlas.
### IMPROVEMENTS:
* core: Packer plugins are now compiled into the main binary, reducing file
size and build times, and making packer easier to install. The overall
plugin architecture has not changed and third-party plugins can still be
loaded from disk. Please make sure your plugins are up-to-date! [GH-2854]
* core: Packer now indicates line numbers for template parse errors. [GH-2742]

being built. This should be used for template-relative paths. [GH-54]
* **New provisioner: shell-local**: Runs a local shell script. [GH-770]
* **New provisioner: powershell**: Provision Windows machines
with PowerShell scripts. [GH-2243]
