1.4.6

• Support specifying appstream compose URL policy with
  --compose-url-policy argument

  During the appstream-glib to libappstream transition in 1.3.x cycle,
  the compose URL policy inadvertently got switched to partial due to
  a change in the default behaviour between the two libraries. This
  option finally exposes the non-partial compose URL policy to
  flatpak-builder. To preserve backwards compatibility, the
  --compose-url-policy argument defaults to partial for now.

• Support fetching and checking out Git LFS objects

  This is only used if git-lfs is available in the environment.
  Distributors may consider adding a run time dependency on git-lfs.
  There is also a new disable-lfs manifest property to disable
  fetching LFS objects on a per git source basis.

• Prevent deleting current working directory, state directory or their
  parents with --force-clean

  This ensures that flatpak-builder cannot enter an inconsistent
  state during builds and helps avoid accidental deletions. This might
  be a minor breaking change for users who were building in the current
  working directory using flatpak-builder --force-clean . MANIFEST.
  Please consider using a dedicated subdirectory, for example
  flatpak-builder --force-clean builddir MANIFEST will use
  ./builddir. No other changes are required.

• Create appstream ref branches in locally exported repo

• Log SDK, runtime and base versions and commits used with --verbose

• Pass --no-gpg-sign to git commit when committing archives inside
  state directory

• Pass --no-gpg-sign to git am when applying patches

• Fix the meson build with -Dinstalled_tests=true

• Fix the screenshot ref commit test to work offline

• Improvements to docs and CI
