- String types and Enums can be used in the same context, such as: arrays, UNION queries, conditional expressions. This closes [#60726](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/60726). [#60727](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60727) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
- Update tzdata to 2024a. [#60768](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60768) ([Raúl Marín](https://github.com/Algunenano)).
- Support files without format extension in Filesystem database. [#60795](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60795) ([Kruglov Pavel](https://github.com/Avogar)).
- Keeper improvement: support `leadership_expiry_ms` in Keeper's settings. [#60806](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60806) ([Brokenice0415](https://github.com/Brokenice0415)).
- Always infer exponential numbers in JSON formats regardless of the setting `input_format_try_infer_exponent_floats`. Add setting `input_format_json_use_string_type_for_ambiguous_paths_in_named_tuples_inference_from_objects` that allows to use String type for ambiguous paths instead of an exception during named Tuples inference from JSON objects. [#60808](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60808) ([Kruglov Pavel](https://github.com/Avogar)).
- Add a flag for SMJ to treat null as biggest/smallest. So the behavior can be compitable with other SQL systems, like Apache Spark. [#60896](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60896) ([loudongfeng](https://github.com/loudongfeng)).
- Clickhouse version has been added to docker labels. Closes [#54224](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/54224). [#60949](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60949) ([Nikolay Monkov](https://github.com/nikmonkov)).
- Add a setting `parallel_replicas_allow_in_with_subquery = 1` which allows subqueries for IN work with parallel replicas. [#60950](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60950) ([Nikolai Kochetov](https://github.com/KochetovNicolai)).
- DNSResolver shuffles set of resolved IPs. [#60965](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/60965) ([Sema Checherinda](https://github.com/CheSema)).
- Support detect output format by file exctension in `clickhouse-client` and `clickhouse-local`. [#61036](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61036) ([豪肥肥](https://github.com/HowePa)).

- Enable processors profiling (time spent/in and out bytes for sorting, aggregation, ...) by default. [#61096](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61096) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).
- Add the function `toUInt128OrZero`, which was missed by mistake (the mistake is related to <https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/945>). The compatibility aliases `FROM_UNIXTIME` and `DATE_FORMAT` (they are not ClickHouse-native and only exist for MySQL compatibility) have been made case insensitive, as expected for SQL-compatibility aliases. [#61114](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61114) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
- Improvements for the access checks, allowing to revoke of unpossessed rights in case the target user doesn't have the revoking grants either. Example: ```sql GRANT SELECT ON *.* TO user1; REVOKE SELECT ON system.\* FROM user1;. [#61115](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61115) ([pufit](https://github.com/pufit)).
- Fix an error in previeous opt: <https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/59698>: remove break to make sure the first filtered column has minimum size cc @jsc0218. [#61145](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61145) ([李扬](https://github.com/taiyang-li)).

- Now it's possible to specify attribute `merge="true"` in config substitutions for subtrees `<include from_zk="/path" merge="true">`. In case this attribute specified, clickhouse will merge subtree with existing configuration, otherwise default behavior is append new content to configuration. [#61299](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61299) ([alesapin](https://github.com/alesapin)).
- Add async metrics for virtual memory mappings: VMMaxMapCount & VMNumMaps. Closes [#60662](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/60662). [#61354](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61354) ([Tuan Pham Anh](https://github.com/tuanpavn)).
- Use `temporary_files_codec` setting in all places where we create temporary data, for example external memory sorting and external memory GROUP BY. Before it worked only in `partial_merge` JOIN algorithm. [#61456](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61456) ([Maksim Kita](https://github.com/kitaisreal)).
- Remove duplicated check `containing_part.empty()`, It's already being checked here: <https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/blob/1296dac3c7e47670872c15e3f5e58f869e0bd2f2/src/Storages/MergeTree/MergeTreeData.cpp#L6141>. [#61467](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61467) ([William Schoeffel](https://github.com/wiledusc)).
- Add a new setting `max_parser_backtracks` which allows to limit the complexity of query parsing. [#61502](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61502) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
- Less contention during dynamic resize of filesystem cache. [#61524](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61524) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
- Disallow sharded mode of StorageS3 queue, because it will be rewritten. [#61537](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61537) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
- Fixed typo: from `use_leagcy_max_level` to `use_legacy_max_level`. [#61545](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61545) ([William Schoeffel](https://github.com/wiledusc)).
- Remove some duplicate entries in blob\_storage\_log. [#61622](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61622) ([YenchangChan](https://github.com/YenchangChan)).
- Added `current_user` function as a compatibility alias for MySQL. [#61770](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61770) ([Yarik Briukhovetskyi](https://github.com/yariks5s)).
- Use managed identity for backups IO when using Azure Blob Storage. Add a setting to prevent ClickHouse from attempting to create a non-existent container, which requires permissions at the storage account level. [#61785](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61785) ([Daniel Pozo Escalona](https://github.com/danipozo)).
- In the previous version, some numbers in Pretty formats were not pretty enough. [#61794](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61794) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
- A long value in Pretty formats won't be cut if it is the single value in the resultset, such as in the result of the `SHOW CREATE TABLE` query. [#61795](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61795) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
- Similarly to `clickhouse-local`, `clickhouse-client` will accept the `--output-format` option as a synonym to the `--format` option. This closes [#59848](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/59848). [#61797](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61797) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
- If stdout is a terminal and the output format is not specified, `clickhouse-client` and similar tools will use `PrettyCompact` by default, similarly to the interactive mode. `clickhouse-client` and `clickhouse-local` will handle command line arguments for input and output formats in a unified fashion. This closes [#61272](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/61272). [#61800](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/61800) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
