This PR contains the following updates:

Package	Update	Change
chardet (changelog)	major	`==6.0.0.post1` → `==7.0.1`

Release Notes

chardet/chardet (chardet)

`v7.0.1`

Compare Source

Fixes

Fixed false UTF-7 detection of SHA-1 git hashes (#324, fixing #323) — requirements files with VCS pins (e.g., +4bafdea3...) were misdetected as UTF-7, breaking tools like tox
Fixed _SINGLE_LANG_MAP missing aliases for single-language encoding lookup (e.g., big5 → big5hkscs)
Fixed PyPy TypeError in UTF-7 codec handling

Improvements

Retrained bigram models — 24 previously failing test cases now pass
Updated language equivalences for mutual intelligibility (Slovak/Czech, East Slavic + Bulgarian, Malay/Indonesian, Scandinavian languages)

New Contributors

@rembish made their first contribution — both reporting the UTF-7 false detection issue and submitting the fix! (#323, #324)

`v7.0.0`

Compare Source

Ground-up, MIT-licensed rewrite of chardet. Same package name, same public API — drop-in replacement for chardet 5.x/6.x. Just way faster and more accurate!

Highlights:

MIT license (previous versions were LGPL)
96.8% accuracy on 2,179 test files (+2.3pp vs chardet 6.0.0, +7.7pp vs charset-normalizer)
41x faster than chardet 6.0.0 with mypyc (28x pure Python), 7.5x faster than charset-normalizer
Language detection for every result (90.5% accuracy across 49 languages)
99 encodings across six eras (MODERN_WEB, LEGACY_ISO, LEGACY_MAC, LEGACY_REGIONAL, DOS, MAINFRAME)
12-stage detection pipeline — BOM, UTF-16/32 patterns, escape sequences, binary detection, markup charset, ASCII, UTF-8 validation, byte validity, CJK gating, structural probing, statistical scoring, post-processing
Bigram frequency models trained on CulturaX multilingual corpus data for all supported language/encoding pairs
Optional mypyc compilation — 1.49x additional speedup on CPython
Thread-safe detect() and detect_all() with no measurable overhead; scales on free-threaded Python 3.13t+
Negligible import memory (96 B)
Zero runtime dependencies

Breaking changes vs 6.0.0:

detect() and detect_all() now default to encoding_era=EncodingEra.ALL (6.0.0 defaulted to MODERN_WEB)
Internal architecture is completely different (probers replaced by pipeline stages). Only the public API is preserved.
LanguageFilter is accepted but ignored (deprecation warning emitted)
chunk_size is accepted but ignored (deprecation warning emitted)
