## [1.0.0-beta.53] - 2025-12-03

💥 Breaking Changes
- Drop `i686-pc-windows-msvc` target support

🚀 Chunk Merging Optimization
- Rolldown now automatically merges shared chunks when entries import each other (when `preserveEntrySignature` is not `strict`)
```shell
Before:
entry.js   → imports → shared.js (common chunk)
entry2.js  → imports → shared.js
Output: 3 chunks (entry.js, entry2.js, shared.js)

After:
entry.js   → contains shared code
entry2.js  → imports → entry.js
Output: 2 chunks (entry.js, entry2.js)
```
