Here are the release notes:

Eclipse Che v7.45 [1]

Major Enhancements

Major Enhancements

Che-Theia Plugins view support for DevWorkspace based workspaces
Che-Theia now supports plugins management from the built-in Plugin View for DevWorkspace based workspaces as well.

Support for devfile v2 parents
The [Devfile v2 specification](https://devfile.io/docs/devfile/2.1.0/user-guide/api-reference.html) introduced the concept of `parent` that allow to reference an existing Devfile. Che now supports that with DevWorkspace based workspaces.

Major Bug Fixes

After upgrading to Che v7.42 it was not possible to start workspaces if the TLS ConfigMap size was bigger than 1KB
After upgrading to Che v7.42, workspaces startup failed if the TLS bundle ConfigMap size was > 1KB. To address that HTTP2 had to be disabled in the che-server to Kubernetes API.

Fix the restart of che-code based workspaces
Workspaces that use che-code as an editor failed to restart or start (if stopped). This has been fixed in this release.
