    • Rework dependency handling
    • Many more portfiles now support static builds. The remaining ones warn that static is not yet supported and will perform a dynamic build instead
    • The triplet file is now automatically included and is available in every portfile
    • Improvements in the post-build checks:
      • Introduce BUILD_INFO file. This contains information about the settings used in the build. The post-build checks use this file to choose what checks to perform
      • Add CRT checks
      • Improve coff file reader. It is now more robust and it correctly handles a couple of corner cases
      • A few miscellaneous checks to further prevent potential issues with the produced packages
    • Improve integration and fix related issues
    • Add support for VS 2017
    • Introduce function that tries to repeatedly build up to a number of failures. This reduces/resolves issues from libraries with flaky builds
    • Many fixes and improvements in existing portfiles and the vcpkg tool itself
