+Synapse 1.78.0rc1 (2023-02-21)
+==============================
+
+Features
+--------
+
+- Implement the experimental `exact_event_match` push rule condition from [MSC3758](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3758). ([\#14964](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14964))

+
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+

+
+
+Improved Documentation
+----------------------
+

+- Document how to start Synapse in the contributing guide. ([\#15022](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15022))

+Internal Changes
+----------------
+
+- Re-type hint some collections as read-only. ([\#13755](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13755))
+- Faster joins: don't stall when another user joins during a partial-state room resync. ([\#14606](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14606))
+- Add a class `UnpersistedEventContext` to allow for the batching up of storing state groups. ([\#14675](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14675))
+- Add a check to ensure that locked dependencies have source distributions available. ([\#14742](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14742))
+- Tweak comment on `_is_local_room_accessible` as part of room visibility in `/hierarchy` to clarify the condition for a room being visible. ([\#14834](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14834))
+- Prevent 'WARNING: there is already a transaction in progress' lines appearing in PostgreSQL's logs on some occasions. ([\#14840](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14840))
+- Use `StrCollection` to avoid potential bugs with `Collection[str]`. ([\#14929](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14929))
+- Improve performance of `/sync` in a few situations. ([\#14973](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14973))
+- Limit concurrent event creation for a room to avoid state resolution when sending bursts of events to a local room. ([\#14977](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14977))
+- Skip calculating unread push actions in /sync when enable_push is false. ([\#14980](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14980))
+- Add a schema dump symlinks inside `contrib`, to make it easier for IDEs to interrogate Synapse's database schema. ([\#14982](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/14982))
+- Improve type hints. ([\#15008](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15008), [\#15026](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15026), [\#15027](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15027), [\#15028](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15028), [\#15031](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15031), [\#15035](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15035), [\#15052](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15052), [\#15072](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15072), [\#15084](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15084))
+- Update [MSC3952](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/3952) support based on changes to the MSC. ([\#15037](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15037))
+- Avoid mutating a cached value in `get_user_devices_from_cache`. ([\#15040](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15040))
+- Fix a rare exception in logs on start up. ([\#15041](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15041))
+- Update pyo3-log to v0.8.1. ([\#15043](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15043))

+- Refactor arguments of `try_unbind_threepid` and `_try_unbind_threepid_with_id_server` to not use dictionaries. ([\#15053](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15053))
+- Merge debug logging from the hotfixes branch. ([\#15054](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15054))
+- Faster joins: omit device list updates originating from partial state rooms in /sync responses without lazy loading of members enabled. ([\#15069](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15069))
+- Fix clashing database transaction name. ([\#15070](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15070))
+- Upper-bound frozendict dependency. This works around us being unable to test installing our wheels against Python 3.11 in CI. ([\#15114](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15114))
+- Tweak logging for when a worker waits for its view of a replication stream to catch up. ([\#15120](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15120))
