15 MB of library source code files (libdeflate, SIMDe, zstd) are no longer kept after installation. (If you were depending on these files, we apologize for the inconvenience; you should be able to switch to something like the tools/-based workflow that pgenlibr now uses.)
HasSparse(), HasSparseHardcalls(), ReadSparse(), and ReadSparseHardcalls() functions added.
CHROM and POS columns in .pvar are now loaded by default, and they can be checked with GetVariantChrom() and GetVariantPos(). NewPvar() should now work properly on .bim files.
Undo premature switch to system libdeflate in Makevars.win, which broke R 4.3 Windows build.
Patches Windows-build link order, makes .pgen reader forward-compatible with header/footer extensions in May 2024 specification update.
Patches irregularities (e.g. interaction with preinstalled libraries, unaligned loads) in initial submission.
Initial CRAN version.
