Django 3.1.1 release notes
==========================

*Expected September 1, 2020*

Django 3.1.1 fixes several bugs in 3.1.

Bugfixes
========

* Fixed wrapping of translated action labels in the admin's navigation sidebar
  for East Asian languages (:ticket:`31853`).

* Fixed wrapping of long model names in the admin's navigation sidebar
  (:ticket:`31854`).

* Fixed encoding session data while upgrading multiple instances of the same
  project to Django 3.1 (:ticket:`31864`).

* Adjusted admin's navigation sidebar template to reduce debug logging when
  rendering (:ticket:`31865`).

* Fixed a data loss possibility in the
  :meth:`~django.db.models.query.QuerySet.select_for_update()`. When using
  related fields pointing to a proxy model in the ``of`` argument, the
  corresponding model was not locked (:ticket:`31866`).

* Fixed a data loss possibility, following a regression in Django 2.0, when
  copying model instances with a cached fields value (:ticket:`31863`).

* Fixed a regression in Django 3.1 that caused a crash when decoding an invalid
  session data (:ticket:`31895`).

* Reverted a deprecation in Django 3.1 that caused a crash when passing
  deprecated keyword arguments to a queryset in
  ``TemplateView.get_context_data()`` (:ticket:`31877`).

* Enforced thread sensitivity of the :class:`MiddlewareMixin.process_request()
  <django.utils.deprecation.MiddlewareMixin>` and ``process_response()`` hooks
  when in an async context (:ticket:`31905`).
