Version 0.10 is out!

In the last two and a half months, we’ve added a ton of new features, fixed many bugs and improved our functional test suite.

New installer

You can still install WP-CLIWP-CLI WP-CLI is the Command Line Interface for WordPress, used to do administrative and development tasks in a programmatic way. The project page is http://wp-cli.org/ https://make.wordpress.org/cli/ by cloning the git repo, but the preferred method is to use the installer, as described on the front page.

The main reason for using the installer is to be able to leverage the optional Boris package, for an enhanced wp shell experience.
