Estimated code review effort

🎯 2 (Simple) | ⏱️ ~10 minutes

The changes are predominantly repetitive version bumps and metadata updates across similar configuration files, with minimal logic complexity. The primary variance is the System.Net.Http reference type change, which requires brief review but follows a straightforward pattern.

test/Codebelt.Extensions.Newtonsoft.Json.Tests/Codebelt.Extensions.Newtonsoft.Json.Tests.csproj (1)

8-8: LGTM! Improved .NET Framework compatibility.

Switching from a PackageReference to a direct framework Reference for System.Net.Http on .NET Framework 4.x targets is the correct approach and helps avoid potential assembly binding conflicts.

.nuget/Codebelt.Extensions.AspNetCore.Mvc.Formatters.Newtonsoft.Json/PackageReleaseNotes.txt (1)

1-6: LGTM! Release notes updated for version 9.0.8.

The new release entry is properly formatted and consistent with the established pattern.

---

7-11: The review comment is based on a misunderstanding of the changes.

The git diff shows that Version 9.0.7 (lines 7-11) is being newly added to the release notes file, not modified from existing content. Release notes typically prepend new version entries at the top of the file—this is standard practice. The current PR adds three new version sections (9.0.8, 9.0.7, and 9.0.6) to the beginning of the file, which is appropriate and expected behavior. There is no unintentional alteration or formatting issue here.

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

Directory.Packages.props (3)

21-23: Let me search for the latest versions of these xUnit packages:

All xUnit package versions are current and compatible.

xunit 2.9.3 is the latest version, xunit.runner.console 2.9.3 is the latest version, and xunit.runner.visualstudio 3.1.5 is the latest version. The versions specified in Directory.Packages.props are correct and represent the latest stable releases.

16-16: Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk version 18.0.0 is verified as the latest stable release.

The version is published on NuGet, marked as serviceable and stable, and represents the current recommended release. No concerns with this dependency update.

---

18-18: Newtonsoft.Json 13.0.4 is confirmed as the latest stable version with broad framework compatibility.

13.0.4 is the latest version (published September 16, 2025). It supports .NETFramework 2.0/3.5/4.0/4.5, .NETStandard 1.0/1.3/2.0, and net6.0, with compatibility across .NET Framework 4.6.1+, .NET Core 2.0+, and .NET 6 and later. No issues identified.
