1.24.1

🐛 (Bug Fix)

• fix(core): align inconsistent behavior of getEnv() and getEnvWithoutDefaults() when a process polyfill is used #4648 @pichlermarc
  • getEnvWithoutDefaults() would use process.env if it was defined when running in a browser, while getEnv() would always use _globalThis. Now both use _globalThis when running in a browser.
• fix(resources): prevent circular import (resource -> detector -> resource -> ...) #4653 @pichlermarc
  • fixes a circular import warning which would appear in rollup when bundling @opentelemetry/resources
• fix(exporter-metrics-otlp-grpc): add explicit otlp-exporter-base dependency to exporter-metrics-otlp-grpc #4678 @AkselAllas

0.51.1

🐛 (Bug Fix)

• fix(instrumentation): update import-in-the-middle to 1.7.4 fix(deps): update dependency import-in-the-middle to v1.7.4 #4667

I reached out to Datadog about this through @Qard. As the PR currently stands it would break dd-trace which I would like to avoid. I think we should delay this for a short time in order to allow them to respond, but I don't want to delay it forever.

@dyladan this is a PR that just backports bugfixes, I think you meant to comment over at #4677 🙂
