Full Changelog: v3.3.0...v3.4.0a1

v3.3.0

• [CompatibilityChecker] Make large error messages more concise (#855).
• Added --no-autohint option to disable ttfautohint even if source has TTFAutohint options custom parameter (#873).
• --filter and --feature-writer options now accept a special value ... as placeholder for the existing filters/feature writers, to allow extending them with additional ones on the command line, instead of overriding (#874).

v3.2.0

• Added optional support for using the ttfautohint-py python wrapper in place of the ttfautohint C++ executble when available (#851, #562).
• Added support for the Glyphs.app instance custom parameter named TTFAutohint options. This parameter is stored in glyphsLib-exported UFOs using the lib key "com.schriftgestaltung.customParameter.InstanceDescriptorAsGSInstance.TTFAutohint options" (#850).

Update glyphsLib requirement (fixes building fonts with brace layers)

v3.1.2

v3.1.0

• Added compatibility checker to give more information when
