### ClickHouse release v20.5.1.3833-prestable FIXME as compared to v20.4.1.3177-prestable
#### Backward Incompatible Change
* Remove `experimental_use_processors` setting. It is enabled by default. [#10924](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/10924) ([Nikolai Kochetov](https://github.com/KochetovNicolai)).
* The setting `input_format_with_names_use_header` is enabled by default. It will affect parsing of input formats `-WithNames` and `-WithNamesAndTypes`. [#10937](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/10937) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Added a check for the case when user-level setting is specified in a wrong place. User-level settings should be specified in `users.xml` inside `<profile>` section for specific user profile (or in `<default>` for default settings). The server won't start with exception message in log. This fixes [#9051](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/9051). If you want to skip the check, you can either move settings to the appropriate place or add `<skip_check_for_incorrect_settings>1</skip_check_for_incorrect_settings>` to config.xml. [#11449](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11449) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Return non-Nullable result from COUNT(DISTINCT), and `uniq` aggregate functions family. If all passed values are NULL, return zero instead. This improves SQL compatibility. [#11661](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11661) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).

* If data skipping index is dependent on columns that are going to be modified during background merge (for SummingMergeTree, AggregatingMergeTree as well as for TTL GROUP BY), it was calculated incorrectly. This issue is fixed by moving index calculation after merge so the index is calculated on merged data. [#11162](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11162) ([Azat Khuzhin](https://github.com/azat)).

This fixes [#11267](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/11267). [#11268](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11268) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Fix potentially flacky test `00731_long_merge_tree_select_opened_files.sh`. It does not fail frequently but we have discovered potential race condition in this test while experimenting with ThreadFuzzer: [#9814](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/9814) See [link](https://clickhouse-test-reports.s3.yandex.net/9814/40e3023e215df22985d275bf85f4d2290897b76b/functional_stateless_tests_(unbundled).html#fail1) for the example. [#11270](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11270) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Now clickhouse-test check the server aliveness before tests run. [#11285](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11285) ([alesapin](https://github.com/alesapin)).
* Emit a warning if server was build in debug or with sanitizers. [#11304](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11304) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Better check for hung queries in clickhouse-test. [#11321](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11321) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Remove redundant timeout from integration test `test_insertion_sync_fails_with_timeout`. [#11343](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11343) ([alesapin](https://github.com/alesapin)).
* Add support for unit tests run with UBSan. [#11345](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11345) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Fix several flaky integration tests. [#11355](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11355) ([alesapin](https://github.com/alesapin)).
* Leave only unit_tests_dbms in deb build. [#11429](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11429) ([Ilya Yatsishin](https://github.com/qoega)).
* Increase ccache size for builds in CI. [#11450](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11450) ([alesapin](https://github.com/alesapin)).
* Speed up build by removing old example programs. Also found some orphan functional test. [#11486](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11486) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Fix missed include for `std::move` used at line 17. [#11525](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11525) ([Matwey V. Kornilov](https://github.com/matwey)).
* Added a random sampling of instances where copier is executed. It is needed to avoid `Too many simultaneous queries` error. Also increased timeout and decreased fault probability. [#11573](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11573) ([Nikita Mikhaylov](https://github.com/nikitamikhaylov)).
* Removes unused imports from HTTPHandlerFactory. [#11660](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11660) ([Bharat Nallan](https://github.com/bharatnc)).
* Don't allow tests with "fail" substring in their names because it makes looking at the tests results in browser less convenient when you type Ctrl+F and search for "fail". [#11817](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11817) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Added a test to ensure that mutations continue to work after FREEZE query. [#11820](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11820) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Print compiler build id in crash messages. It will make us slightly more certain about what binary has crashed. Added new function `buildId`. [#11824](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11824) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Remove dependency on `tzdata`: do not fail if `/usr/share/zoneinfo` directory does not exist. Note that all timezones work in ClickHouse even without tzdata installed in system. [#11827](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/11827) ([Alexey Milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
