### Improved and extended functionality

- [#5660](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5660) Enhance `IsomorphismFpGroup(G)` to transfer in more cases information about `G` to its image
- [#5521](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5521) Fix unexpected error when doing certain calculations in a fitting-free group acting intransitively on its socle factors
- [#5480](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5480) Make `GroupWithMemory` behave more like `Group`, and e.g. make the wrapped generators immutable, and for matrices try to convert them to a better representation
- [#5440](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5440) Change handling of long command line options like `--norepl` so that repeating them will not toggle behaviour anymore

### Other fixed bugs

- [#5546](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5546) Fix printing of GAP strings containing null characters (skip them instead of truncating the string)
- [#5523](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5523) Fix infinite recursion in `ReplacedString` when `<old>` string is empty
- [#5520](https://github.com/gap-system/gap/pull/5520) Restrict `SetDimension` method to `IsFreeLeftModule` to avoid a bug involving `FinInG`
