v0.40.8

Bug Fixes

 - `nvm_alias`, `nvm_version_path`: reject `..` path components
 - `nvm_get_make_jobs`: count cores on platforms the `case` does not name
 - `nvm-exec`: improve the no-version failure message
 - `nvm use`: do not clobber `man`'s default search path (#3890)
 - `nvm_err`, `nvm_err_with_colors`: do not fail when stderr is closed (#3907)
 - `nvm_hash_reset`: only run `hash -r` where the shell supports it
 - `nvm_alias`: unset zsh's `extendedglob` while reading an alias file (#3891)
 - zsh: restore `nomatch` and `markdirs` rather than clobbering them
 - `nvm --help`: render the set-colors legend in color (#3915)
 - `nvm unload`: drop the undefined `nvm_format_help_message_colors`
 - `nvm_get_mirror`: allow ports, userinfo, IPv6 hosts, and percent-encoding
 - `nvm_sanitize_auth_header`: allow `~`, completing RFC 7235 `token68` (#3751)

Refactors

 - `nvm --help`: extract the set-colors legend into `nvm_print_color_legend`

Performance

 - Optimize nvm_tree_contains_path with in-memory POSIX parent-walk (#3912)

Docs

 - [readme] document platforms with no official node binaries
 - `install.sh`: Fix missing words in bash/zsh completion message (#3887)
 - Remove stray closing HTML tag (#3919)

Misc

 - [meta] remove CLAUDE.md symlink in favor of AGENTS.md (#3928)
 - [meta] add `release-notes.sh`, the release notes generator

Tests

 - homebrew/actions changed their default branch
 - [actions] WSL: pin every distribution, and test the newest of each line
 - `nvm_print_color_legend`: look up the function with `PATH` emptied
 - `nvm_print_color_legend`: check for the function, not a same-named file
 - `nvm_print_color_legend`: fix the `fast` suite on GNU userlands
 - [actions] `release.yml`: provide `GH_TOKEN` so release-notes PR lookup can run

 To **install** or **update** nvm, you should run the [install script][2]. To do that, you may either download and run the script manually, or use the following [cURL](https://curl.se) or [Wget](https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/) command:
 ```sh
-curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.7/install.sh | bash
+curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.8/install.sh | bash

+wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.8/install.sh | bash
 ```
 
 Running either of the above commands downloads a script and runs it. The script clones the nvm repository to `~/.nvm`, and attempts to add the source lines from the snippet below to the correct profile file (`~/.bashrc`, `~/.bash_profile`, `~/.zshrc`, or `~/.profile`). If you find the install script is updating the wrong profile file, set the `$PROFILE` env var to the profile file’s path, and then rerun the installation script.

Alpine 3.5 - 3.12 required the package [`python2`](https://www.python.org/) to build NodeJS, as they are older versions to build. Alpine 3.13+ requires `python3` to successfully build newer NodeJS versions, but you can use `python2` with Alpine 3.13+ if you need to build versions of node supported in Alpine 3.5 - 3.15, you just need to specify what version of NodeJS you need to install in the package install script._
