Logging With Context

Have you ever wanted better context inside your logs? Maybe you are doing some debugging and wanting to have all the logs grouped by a transaction or a user.  New in v8.49 is a `withContext` method that makes this even better. Here is an example of how you can use this new feature:

Sort By Route Resolution Order

Another new feature is the option to sort routes by resolution order (the default sort is by uri): 

`php artisan route:list --sort precedence`

This is helpful to debug which route will resolve first, and all the available options are precedence, domain, method, uri, name, action, or middleware.

Laravel 8.49 is released
The Laravel team released 8.49 with a logging context method that adds the same contextual information to subsequent logs during a request.
