It is now possible (again?) to read from a list of connections (@bairdj, #514).
Internal change for compatibility with cpp11 >= 0.4.6 (@DavisVaughan, #512).
str() now works in a colorized context in the presence of a column of class integer64, i.e. parsed with col_big_integer() (@bart1, #477).
The embedded implementation of the Grisu algorithm for printing floating point numbers now uses snprintf() instead of sprintf() and likewise for vroom's own code (@jeroen, #480).
vroom(col_select=) now handles column selection by numeric position when id column is provided (#455).
vroom(id = "path", col_select = a:c) is treated like vroom(id = "path", col_select = c(path, a:c)). If an id column is provided, it is automatically included in the output (#416).
vroom_write(append = TRUE) does not modify an existing file when appending an empty data frame. In particular, it does not overwrite (delete) the existing contents of that file (https://github.com/tidyverse/readr/issues/1408, #451).
vroom::problems() now defaults to .Last.value for its primary input, similar to how readr::problems() works (#443).
The warning that indicates the existence of parsing problems has been improved, which should make it easier for the user to follow-up (https://github.com/tidyverse/readr/issues/1322).
vroom() reads more reliably from filepaths containing non-ascii characters, in a non-UTF-8 locale (#394, #438).
vroom_format() and vroom_write() only quote values that contain a delimiter, quote, or newline. Specifically values that are equal to the na string (or that start with it) are no longer quoted (#426).
Fixed segfault when reading in multiple files and the first file has only a header row of column names, but subsequent files have at least one row (#430).
Fixed segfault when vroom_format() is given an empty data frame (#425)
Fixed a segfault that could occur when the final field of the final line is missing and the file also does not end in a newline (#429).
Fixed recursive garbage collection error that could occur during vroom_write() when output_column() generates an ALTREP vector (#389).
vroom_progress() uses rlang::is_interactive() instead of base::interactive().
col_factor(levels = NULL) honors the na strings of vroom() and its own include_na argument, as described in the docs, and now reproduces the behaviour of readr's first edition parser (#396).

Comment lines containing unpaired quotes are no longer treated as unterminated quotations (https://github.com/tidyverse/readr/issues/1307)
Values with only a Inf or NaN prefix but additional data afterwards, like
Inform or no longer inappropriately guessed as doubles (https://github.com/tidyverse/readr/issues/1319)
