v26.50.0 release notes#40532
Conversation
Adds the v26.50.0 section to doc/user/content/releases/_index.md and the v26.50 row to the self-managed operator compatibility table. Dates are provisional (Cloud 2026-11-12, Self-Managed 2026-11-13) and are set for real by the final snapshot. Draft with PR links: https://github.com/MaterializeInc/mz-skills/blob/main/data/mz-release-notes/v26.50.0/rc.1/release_notes.md Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]>
The final snapshot adds no new entries: the v26.50.0-rc.1...v26.50.0 compare holds exactly one commit, the version bump, and no agent-skills PR merged in the window, so the increment is empty. Dates are now real rather than provisional (Cloud 2026-11-12, Self-Managed 2026-11-13); rc.1 had estimated the same pair, so no date text changes. The whole-release pass found three entries that main already publishes in its v26.49.1 section, because the v26.49.1 patch train cherry-picked four Console PRs that also merged to main inside this train's rc.1 window. They are removed here so they are not published twice: - "Diagnose hydration from the cluster details page" (#40044, #40074), which main carries as the feature section "Right size your clusters, using the new Hydration tab on the console", with a screenshot. - "The Freshness page on Self-Managed" (#40511), which main carries as "Freshness and cluster details pages on Self-Managed", covering both pages. - "Swap usage in the Console's Disk column" (#40492), which main carries as a Bug Fix. That leaves v26.50.0 with 5 Improvements and 7 Bug Fixes.

Dates in RC snapshots are provisional until the release ships. One commit is added per snapshot; the final snapshot sets the real dates. The
finalsnapshot has been applied: the dates below are the real ones (Cloud 2026-11-12, Self-Managed 2026-11-13).The
finalsnapshot adds no entries —v26.50.0-rc.1...v26.50.0is one commit, the version bump, and no agent-skills PR merged in the window. Its substantive work was the dates, a rebase ontomain, and the three removals below.Rebased onto
main. The branch was 107 commits behind and conflicted:main's## v26.49.1section replaced the stale## v26.49.0stub the branch was cut from. Resolved by keepingmain's section verbatim and re-inserting## v26.50.0above it; same for the compatibility YAML (v26.50, thenv26.49.1, thenv26.48.2).Three entries removed as already published on
main. Thev26.49.1patch train cherry-picked four Console PRs that also merged tomaininside this train'src.1window, so both trains classified them independently andmainalready carries them under## v26.49.1:mainin## v26.49.1as## v26.50.0main's wording is the later and fuller treatment in all three cases.
