## Executive Summary (TL;DR)
Vitest v0.29.0. Source highlight: This release makes some significant changes to how tests are running. If you were using `--no-threads` before, you might consider enabling `--single-thread` instead (because your tests are now running in `child_process` instead of a worker thread) or try our new performance optimization feature (dis

## Breaking Changes & Deprecations
- One of the potential breaking bug fixes is that environments do not share the same global scope anymore if you run them with `--no-isolate`, `--no-threads` or `--single-thread` - you might need to update your setup files if you were relying on a global variable before.
- One of the breaking changes includes adding a link to snapshots inside snapshot files, meaning you will need to update all your snapshots.

## Bug Fixes
- Tests with `node` and `jsdom` (and other environments) now don't share the same global scope, if you run them with `--no-isolate` or `--no-threads` flag. Vitest doesn't provide a way to restore the previous behavior as it is considered a bug.
