% \section{Introduction}
% Prior to the 2015 release of \LaTeX{}, essentially no changes had been
% made to the \LaTeX\ format code for some years, with all
% improvements being instead added to the package \Lpack{fixltx2e}.
%
% While this worked at a technical level it meant that you had to
% explicitly opt-in to bug fixes and improvements, and the vast
% majority of documents did not benefit.
%
% As described in \LaTeX\ News 22, a new policy is being implemented
% in which improvements will now be added to the format by default,
% and this \Lpack{latexrelease} package may be used to ensure
% stability where needed, either by making a new format use an older
% definition of some commands, or conversely may be used to supply the
% new definitions for use with an old format.
%
% The basic use is:
%\begin{verbatim}
% \RequirePackage[2015/01/01]{latexrelease}
% \documentclass{article}
% ....
%\end{verbatim}
%
% After such a declaration the document will use definitions current
% in the January 2015 \LaTeX{}, whether the actual format being used is
% older, or newer than that date. In the former case a copy of
% |latexrelease.sty| would need to be made available for use with the
% older format.  This may be used, for example, to share a document
% between co-workers using different \LaTeX\ releases, or to protect a
% document from being affected by system updates. As well as the
% definitions within the format itself, individual packages may use
% the commands defined here to  adjust their definitions to the
% specified date as described below.
%
% Note that the \Lpack{latexrelease} package is intended for use
% at the start of a \emph{document}. Package and class code should not
% include this package as loading a package should not normally globally
% reset the effective version of \LaTeX\ that is in force, so affecting all
% other packages used in the document.
%
%
% The bulk of this package, after some initial setup and option
% handling consists of a series of |\IncludeInRelease| commands
% which have been extracted from the main source files of the \LaTeX\
% format. These contain the old and new versions of any commands with
% modified definitions.
%
% \section{Package Options}
% \begin{itemize}
% \item \emph{yyyy/mm/dd} or \emph{yyyy-nn-dd}
% The package accepts any possible \LaTeX\ format date as argument,
% although dates in the future for which the current release of this
% package has no information will generate a warning. Dates
% earlier than 2015 will work but will roll back to some point in 2015
% when the method was introduced.
% The |\requestedLaTeXdate| is set to the normalized date argument
% so that package rollback defaults to the specified date.
%
% \item%
% |current| This is the default behaviour, it does not change the
% effective date of the format but does ensure that the
% |\IncludeInRelease| command is defined.
% The |\requestedLaTeXdate| macro is reset to 0 so that package rollback
% does not use the implicit date.
%
% \item
% |latest| sets the effective date of the format to the release date
% of this file, so in an older format applies all patches currently
% available.
% The |\requestedLaTeXdate| macro is reset to 0 so that package rollback
% does not use the implicit date.
% \end{itemize}
%
% In all cases, when the package is loaded, the |\sourceLaTeXdate| is
% defined to be the numerical representation of |\fmtversion| before the
% rollback/forward actually happens, so it is possible to test from which
% was the original \LaTeX{} version before \Lpack{latexrelease} was loaded.
% This is particularly useful when some code in a package has to be
% redefined differently if rolling backwards in time or forwards.
%
% \section{Release Specific Code}
%
% The |\IncludeInRelease| mechanism allows the kernel developer to
% associate code with a specific date to choose different versions of
% definitions depending on the date specified as an option to the
% \Lpack{latexrelease} package. Is also available for use by package
% authors (or even in a document if necessary).

%
% \begin{description}
%
% \item[\marg{code-date}] This date is associated with the \marg{code}
% argument and will be compared to the requested date in the option to
% the \Lpack{latexrelease}.
%
% \item[\oarg{format-date}] This optional argument can be used to
% specify a format date with the code in addition to the mandatory
% \marg{code-date} argument. This can be useful for package developers
% as described below.
%
% \item[\marg{label}] The \marg{label} argument is an identifier
% (string) that within a given package must be a unique label for each
% related set of optional definitions. Per package at most one code
% block from all the |\IncludeInRelease| declarations with the same
% label will be executed.
%
% \item[\marg{message}]
% The \marg{message} is an informative string that is used in
% messages. It has no other function.
%
% \item[\meta{code}]
% Any \TeX\ code after the |\IncludeInRelease| arguments
% up until the and the following |\EndIncludeInRelease|
% is to be
% conditionally included depending on the date of the format as
% described below.
%
% \end{description}
%
% The |\IncludeInRelease| declarations with a given label should be in
% reverse chronological order in the file. The one chosen will depend
% on this order, the effective format version and the date options, as
% described below.
%
% If your package \Lpack{mypackage} defines a |\widget| command but
% has one definition using the features available in the 2015 \LaTeX\
% release, and a different definition is required for older formats
% then you can use:
%\begin{verbatim}
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/01/01}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{new version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{0000/00/00}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{old version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%\end{verbatim}
%
% If a document using this package is used with a format with
% effective release date of 2015/01/01 or later the new code will be
% used, otherwise the old code will be used. Note the \emph{effective
% release date} might be the original \LaTeX\ release date as shown at
% the start of every \LaTeX\ job, or it may be set by the
% \Lpack{latexrelease} package, so for example a document author who
% wants to ensure the new version is used could use
%\begin{verbatim}
% \RequirePackage[2015/01/01]{latexrelease}
% \documentclass{article}
% \usepackage{mypackage}
%\end{verbatim}
%
% If the document  is used with a \LaTeX\ format from 2014 or before,
% then \Lpack{latexrelease} will not have been part of the original
% distribution, but it may be obtained from a later \LaTeX\ release or
% from CTAN and distributed with the document, it will make an older
% \LaTeX\ release act essentially like the 2015 release.
%
% \subsection{Intermediate Package Releases}
%
% The above example works well for testing against the latex format
% but is not always ideal for controlling code by the release date of
% the \emph{package}. Suppose \LaTeX\ is not updated but in March you
% update the \Lpack{mypackage} package and modify the definition of
% |\widget|. You could code the package as:
%\begin{verbatim}
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/03/01}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{even newer improved March version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/01/01}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{new version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{0000/00/00}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{old version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%\end{verbatim}
%
% This would work and allow a document author to choose a date such as
%\begin{verbatim}
% \RequirePackage[2015/03/01]{latexrelease}
% \documentclass{article}
% \usepackage{mypackage}
%\end{verbatim}
%
% To use the latest version, however it would have disadvantage that
% until the next release of \LaTeX, by default, if the document does
% not use \Lpack{latexrelease} to specify a date, the new improved
% code will not be selected as the effective date will be 2015/01/01
% and so the first code block will be skipped.
%
% For this reason |\IncludeInRelease| has an optional argument that
% specifies an alternative date to use if a date option has not been
% specified to \Lpack{latexrelease}.
%\begin{verbatim}
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/03/01}[2015/01/01]{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{even newer improved March version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/01/01}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{new version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{0000/00/00}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{old version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%\end{verbatim}
%
% Now, by default on a 2015/01/01 \LaTeX\ format, the first code block
% will compare the format date to the optional argument 2015/01/01
% and so will execute the \emph{even newer improved} version. The
% remaining blocks using the |\widget| label argument will all then be
% skipped.
%
% If on the other hand the document requests an explicit release date
% using \Lpack{latexrelease} then this date will be used to decide what
% code block to include.
%
% \subsection{Using \cs{IncludeInRelease} in Packages}
%
% If |\IncludeInRelease| is used within a package then all such
% conditional code needs to be within such declarations, e.g., it is
% not possible in the above example to have the ``current'' definition
% of |\widget| somewhere in the main code and only the two older
% definitions inside |\IncludeInRelease| declarations. If you would do
% this then one of those |\IncludeInRelease| declarations would be
% included overwriting the even newer code in the main part of the
% package. As a result your package may get fragmented over time with
% various |\IncludeInRelease| declarations sprinkled throughout your
% code or you have to interrupt the reading flow by putting those
% declarations together but not necessarily in the place where they
% belong.
%
% To avoid this issue you can use the following coding
% strategy: place the current |\widget| definition in the main code
% where it correctly belongs.
% \begin{verbatim}
%   ...
%  \def\widget {even newer improved March version}
%  \def\@widget{newly added helper command no defined in older releases}
%   ...
%\end{verbatim}
% Then, near the end of your package place
% the following:
%  \begin{verbatim}
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/03/01}[2015/01/01]{\widget}{Widget Definition}
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{2015/01/01}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{new version}%
%  \let\@widget\@undefined % this doesn't exist in earlier releases
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%
% \IncludeInRelease{0000/00/00}{\widget}{Widget Definition}
%  \def\widget{old version}%
% \EndIncludeInRelease
%\end{verbatim}
% This way the empty code block hides the other |\IncludeInRelease|
% declarations unless there is an explicit request with a date
% 2015/01/01 or earlier.
%
% Now if you make a further change to |\widget| in the future you
% simply copy the current definition into the empty block and add a new
% empty declaration with today's date and the current format date. This
% way your main code stays readable and the old versions accumulate at
% the end of the package.\footnote{Of course there may be some cases
% in which the old code has to be in a specific place within the
% package as other code depends on it (e.g., if you
% \texttt{\string\let} something to it). In that case you have to
% place the code variations in the right place in your package rather
% than accumulating them at the very end.}
%
% The only other ``extra effort'' necessary when using this approach
% is that it may be advisable to undo new definitions in the code
% block for the previous release, e.g., in the above example we
% undefined |\@widget| as that isn't available in the 2015/01/01
% release but was defined in the main code. If all your conditional
% code is within |\IncludeInRelease| declarations that wouldn't been
% necessary as the new code only gets defined if that release is
% chosen.
%
% \section{Declaring entire modules}
%
% Sometimes a large chunk of code is added as a module to another larger
% code base.  As example of that in the 2020-10-01 release \LaTeX{} got
% a new hook management system, \pkg{lthooks}, which was added in one go
% and, as with all changes to the kernel, it was added to
% \pkg{latexrelease}.  However rolling back from a future date to the
% 2020-10-01 release didn't work because \pkg{latexrelease} would try to
% define again all those commands, which would result in many
% ``already defined'' errors and similar issues.
%
% To solve that problem, completely new modules can be defined in
% \pkg{latexrelease} using the commands:
% \begin{quote}
%   \cs{NewModuleRelease}%^^A
%     \verb|{|\meta{initial release date}%^^A
%       \verb|}{|\meta{name}\verb|}{|\meta{message}\verb|}|\\
%   \null\quad\meta{module code}\\
%   \cs{IncludeInRelease}%^^A
%     \verb|{0000/00/00}{|\meta{name}\verb|}{|\meta{message}\verb|}|\\
%   \null\quad\meta{undefine module code}\\
%   \cs{EndModuleRelease}
% \end{quote}
% With that setup, the module \meta{name} will be declared to exist only
% in releases equal or later \meta{initial release date}.
%
% If \pkg{latexrelease} is rolling backwards or forwards between dates
% after \meta{initial release date}, then all the \meta{module code} is
% skipped, except when inside \meta{IncludeInRelease} guards, in which
% case the code is applied or skipped as discussed above.
%
% If rolling forward from a date before the module's \meta{initial
% release date} to a date after that, then all the \meta{module code} is
% executed to define the module, and \cs{IncludeInRelease} guards are
% executed accordingly, depending on the date declared and the target
% date.
%
% If \pkg{latexrelease} is rolling back to a date before \meta{release
% date}, then the code in the \cs{IncludeInRelease} guard dated
% \verb|0000/00/00| is executed instead to undefine the module.  This
% guard \emph{is not} ended by the usual \cs{EndIncludeInRelease}, but
% instead by \cs{EndModuleRelease}.
%
% Finally, if rolling backwards or forwards between dates both before
% \meta{initial release date}, the entire code between
% \meta{NewModuleRelease} and \meta{EndModuleRelease} is entirely
% skipped.
%
% \subsection{Example}
%
% Here is an example usage of the structure described above, as it would
% be used in the \LaTeX{} kernel, taking \pkg{lthooks} as example:
% \begin{verbatim}
% %<*2ekernel|latexrelease>
% \ExplSyntaxOn
% %<latexrelease>\NewModuleRelease{2020/10/01}{lthooks}%
% %<latexrelease>                 {The~hook~management~system}
% \NewDocumentCommand \NewHook { m }
%   { \hook_new:n {#1} }
% %<latexrelease>\IncludeInRelease{2021/06/01}{\AddToHook}{Long~argument}
% \NewDocumentCommand \AddToHook { m o +m }
%   { \hook_gput_code:nnn {#1} {#2} {#3} }
% %<latexrelease>\EndIncludeInRelease
% %<latexrelease>
% %<latexrelease>\IncludeInRelease{2020/10/01}{\AddToHook}{Long~argument}
% %<latexrelease>\NewDocumentCommand \AddToHook { m o m }
% %<latexrelease>  { \hook_gput_code:nnn {#1} {#2} {#3} }
% %<latexrelease>\EndIncludeInRelease
% %<latexrelease>
% %<latexrelease>\IncludeInRelease{0000/00/00}{lthooks}{Undefine~lthooks}
% %<latexrelease>\cs_undefine:N \NewHook
% %<latexrelease>\cs_undefine:N \AddToHook
% %<latexrelease>\EndModuleRelease
% \ExplSyntaxOff
% %</2ekernel|latexrelease>
% \end{verbatim}
%
% In the example above, \cs{NewHook} is declared only once, and
% unchanged in the next release (2021/06/01 in the example), so it has
% no \cs{IncludeInRelease} guards, and will only be defined if needed.
% \cs{AddToHook}, on the other hand, changed between the two releases
% (made up for the example;  it didn't really happen)
% and has an \cs{IncludeInRelease} block for the current release (off
% \pkg{docstrip} guards, so it goes into the kernel too), and another
% for the previous release (in \pkg{docstrip} guards so it goes only
% into \pkg{latexrelease}).
%
% Note that in the example above, \cs{ExplSyntaxOn} and
% \cs{ExplSyntaxOff} were added \emph{outside} the module code because,
% as discussed above, sometimes the code outside \cs{IncludeInRelease}
% guards may be skipped, but not the code inside them, and in that case
% the catcodes would be wrong when defining the code.
%
% \section{fixltx2e}
%
% As noted above, prior to the 2015 \LaTeX\ release updates to the
% \LaTeX\ kernel were not made in the format source files but were
% made available in the \Lpack{fixltx2e} package. That package is no
% longer needed but we generate a small package from this source
% that just makes a warning message but otherwise does nothing.

%
% The redefinitions below are needed because:
% \begin{description}
%   \def\makelabel#1{\cs{#1}}
%   \item[__kernel_chk_if_free_cs:N] This function is used ubiquitously
%     in the \pkg{l3kernel} to check if a control sequence is definable,
%     and give an error otherwise (similar to \cs{@ifdefinable}).
%     Making it a no-op is enough for most cases (except when defining
%     new registers);
%   \item[e@alloc] In the case of new registers, we waste an allocation
%     number if we do \cs[no-index]{new\meta{thing}} in a register
%     that's already allocated, so the redefinition of \cs{e@alloc}
%     checks if the new register is really necessary.  This code does
%     not clear the register, which might cause problems in the future,
%     if a register is allocated but not properly cleared before using;
%   \item[__kernel_msg_error:nnx] This command is used to error on
%     already defined scan marks.  Just making the error do nothing is
%     enough, as no action is taken in that case;
%   \item[msg_new:nnnn] Used to define new messages.  Making it
%     \texttt{\string_gset} is enough.  Other msg commands like
%     \cs{msg_new:nnn} and \cs[no-index]{__kernel_msg_new:nnn(n)} are
%     defined in terms of \cs{msg_new:nnnn}, so there is no need to
%     change the other ones;
%   \item[NewDocumentCommand] Used to define user-level commands in the
%     kernel.  Making it equal to \cs{DeclareDocumentCommand} solves the
%     problem;
%   \item[newcommand] Same as above.
% \end{description}
% And here we go:

%    \end{macrocode}
%
% Finally, redirect the error thrown by \cs{NewHook} to nowhere so it
% can be safely reused (the hook isn't redeclared if it already exists).
% The same happens for \cs{NewMarkClass}.
