[pyup-bot]

This PR updates whitenoise from 6.0.0 to 6.11.0.

Changelog

6.11.0

-------------------

* Support Django 6.0.

6.10.0

-------------------

* Support Python 3.14.

6.9.0

------------------

* Support Django 5.2.

6.8.2

------------------

* Fix compression speed gains for the thread pool when running Django’s ``collectstatic``.
The thread pool had no effect due to use of a generator for the results, a refactoring introduced when reviewing the initial PR.

Thanks to Petr Přikryl for the investigation and fix in `PR 616 <https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise/pull/616>`__.

6.8.1

------------------

* Raise any errors from threads in the ``whitenoise.compress`` command.

Regression in 6.8.0.
Thanks to Tom Grainger for the spotting this with a `comment on PR 484 <https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise/pull/484#discussion_r1818989096>`__.

6.8.0

------------------

* Drop Django 3.2 to 4.1 support.

* Drop Python 3.8 support.

* Support Python 3.13.

* Fix a bug introduced in version 6.0.0 where ``Range`` requests could lead to database connection errors in other requests.

Thanks to Per Myren for the detailed investigation and fix in `PR 612 <https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise/pull/612>`__.

* Use Django’s |FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME|__ setting correctly.
This reverts a change from version 5.3.0 that added a call to Django’s |get_script_prefix() method|__ outside of the request-response cycle.

.. |FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME| replace:: ``FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME``
__ https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/settings/#std:setting-FORCE_SCRIPT_NAME

.. |get_script_prefix() method| replace:: ``get_script_prefix()`` method
__ https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/urlresolvers/#django.urls.get_script_prefix

Thanks to Sarah Boyce in `PR 486 <https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise/pull/486>`__.

* Compress files using a thread pool.
This speeds up the compression step up to four times in benchmarks.

Thanks to Anthony Ricaud in `PR 484 <https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise/pull/484>`__.

6.7.0

------------------

* Support Django 5.1.

6.6.0

------------------

* Support Django 5.0.

* Drop Python 3.7 support.

6.5.0

------------------

* Support Python 3.12.

* Changed documentation site URL from ``https://whitenoise.evans.io/`` to ``https://whitenoise.readthedocs.io/``.

6.4.0

------------------

* Support Django 4.2.

* Remove further support for byte strings from the ``root`` and ``prefix`` arguments to ``WhiteNoise``, and Django’s ``STATIC_ROOT`` setting.
Like in the previous release, this seems to be a remnant of Python 2 support.
Again, this change may be backwards incompatible for a small number of projects, but it’s unlikely.
Django does not support ``STATIC_ROOT`` being a byte string.

6.3.0

------------------

* Add some video file extensions to be ignored during compression.
Since such files are already heavily compressed, further compression rarely helps.

Thanks to Jon Ribbens in `PR 431 <https://github.com/evansd/whitenoise/pull/431>`__.

* Remove the behaviour of decoding byte strings passed for settings that take strings.
This seemed to be left around from supporting Python 2.
This change may be backwards incompatible for a small number of projects.

* Document “hidden” feature of setting ``max_age`` to ``None`` to disable the ``Cache-Control`` header.

* Drop support for working as old-style Django middleware, as support was `removed in Django 2.0 <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/2.0/#features-removed-in-2-0>`__.

6.2.0

------------------

* Support Python 3.11.

* Support Django 4.1.

6.1.0

------------------

* Drop support for Django 2.2, 3.0, and 3.1.
