 # Changelog
 
-## 2.9.8
+## 2.10.0
 
-### Fixed: oversized commit messages no longer fail the scan
+### Fixed
+
+- `--base-commit-sha` now sets the range changed-file detection reads, so a manifest
+  changed anywhere between that commit and HEAD triggers a comparison. Previously only
+  a recognized GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Buildkite pull request read a full range,
+  and every other run saw the current commit alone.
+- A base commit that cannot be resolved in the checkout now warns instead of narrowing
+  the comparison to a single commit.
+- A full scan reports its findings as repository findings rather than new ones, and
+  labels its link `Report Url`. The summary states why the counts do not affect the
+  exit code.
+- Removed and replaced packages with a namespace no longer render a duplicated purl in
+  the dependency overview comment.
 
 - The 200-character cap on the commit message now applies to the value read from the
   repository, not only to `--commit-message`. A truncated message ends in `...` and the
   truncation is reported at INFO.
 - A full scan refused for its size (HTTP 413, 414 or 431) now distinguishes possible
   upload-size and request-metadata causes and reports what to shorten.
 
+### Changed
+
+- `--ignore-commit-files` is documented as forcing a comparison, which is what it does.
+  The CLI reference and `--help` described it as forcing a full scan.

 ## 2.9.7

 > `--base-commit-sha` does not create a scan of that commit. The CLI first looks for the newest non-temporary scan matching the repository, workspace, scan type, and exact commit.

It logs a warning with the selected commit and distance because this produces a wider diff than the merge base.

+> Supplying `--base-commit-sha` also widens the range the CLI reads when deciding whether any manifest changed. Without it, and outside a recognized CI pull request or merge request, the CLI sees only the current commit, so a pull request whose manifest changed in an earlier commit is treated as a source-only change and the comparison is skipped. If the base commit cannot be resolved in the local checkout, the CLI warns and falls back to the current commit alone; deepen the clone or fetch the base commit to compare the full range.

 > Run `socketcli` regularly on the default branch so recent ancestors have scans. PR checkouts must also retain the merge base and enough first-parent history; shallow clones can shorten the search.

 ### Examples
 
 - **Commit with manifest file**: If your commit includes changes to `package.json`, a differential scan will be triggered automatically with PR comment integration.
 - **Commit without manifest files**: If your commit only changes non-manifest files (like `.github/workflows/socket.yaml`), the CLI automatically switches to API mode and performs a full repository scan.
 - **Using `--files`**: If you specify `--files '["package.json"]'`, the CLI will check if this file exists and is a manifest file before determining scan type.

+- **Using `--ignore-commit-files`**: This runs the comparison regardless of what's in your commit, over all manifest files in the target path. Use it when the changed-file check would otherwise skip a comparison you need.

 - **Auto-detection**: Most CI/CD scenarios now work with just `socketcli --target-path /path/to/repo --scm github --pr-number $PR_NUM`
