January 2026 monthly summary for mendersoftware/mender-docs: Delivered a security-focused documentation update to clarify PAT revocation behavior in single sign-on (SSO) contexts.

December 2024 monthly summary for mendersoftware/mender: Delivered a robust device_type detection in inventory reporting by enhancing the mender-inventory-provides script to reliably extract device_type even when Mender's file locations are customized. Implemented environment-variable based configuration for config/datastore directories, added robust parsing of mender.conf to locate DeviceTypeFile, and implemented a fallback to the default file path when configuration is missing or invalid. These changes improve accuracy of device type reporting across deployments with customized setups and reduce manual correction during inventory collection.
